Below we quote from a telegram
appearing in this (Tuesday) morning's
Omaha World-Herald, which was sent
from Union, Nebraska. Mr. Gerrard a
few years ago was a Columbus type
setter, and is well known to Columbus
and Monroe people where he haa lived
all his life. Laat February Mr. Gerrard
lost his newspaper plant at Elba, it
being destroyed by fire: "Editor Graves
ia in receipt of a letter from a Mrs. C. A.
Gerrard of Bellwood, Nebr, asking for a
fuller description of the body and clothes
worn by the man who committed suicide
here last Friday. Mrs. Gerrard says she
read the story of the suicide in the
World-Herald, and believes the ivnn was
her missing husband, whom, she writes,
left Elba, Nebr., February 27, and has
not been seen since that time by herself
or friends."
Last Saturday, house roll 106 by
Mr. Bacon appropriating 350,000 for the
sinking of eight experimental wells, to
prospect for petroleum, passed the house
without the emergency clause. It will
be remembered that in this bill five
towns are mentioned as probable places
for the sinking of these wells, one of
which is Columbus. It is now import
ant that our citizens take immediate
steps to secure this, should the bill pass
the senate. There are several points m
Platte county that indicate unusual con
ditions. Another interesting bill which
passed the house Saturday, provides for
a bonus of $5,000 for the location of a
vein of coal three feet thick, and $15,
000 for an oil well that will produce fifty
barrels per day for sixty consecutive
days. House roll 174. also passed the
house, the widow's right of dower bill,
which gives widows of intestates one
half of all real estate held in fee simple.
The Clarke Enterprise observes that
the good people of Nance county are up
against a queer proposition, and that
several attorneys are threatened with
nervous prostration in trying to figure
out a solution to the difficulty. Peti
tions are in circulation to vote bonds in
big blocks to put in three substantial
iron bridges at Fullerton. Genoa and
Palmer. This proposition seems to meet
with general favor as the wooden struc
tures heretofore used have shown a
provoking tendency to wander away
which makes them expensive. But the
trouble is that the statutes forbid the
bonding of a county for more than one
specific purpose and there you are! If
they vote on the Fullerton bridge prop
osition first, for instance, Genoa and
Palmar, being rival towns, would turn
out to a man and vote it down for fear it
wouldn't come out right later on and
vice versa. It's a queer mess at best,
and will require some good figuring to
get around.

Clarence Sheldon received burns
abottt-hia face laat Tuesday night which
were caused from the explosion of a mix-
ture he waa compounding as a hnament
for the treatment of his cattle. He had
the ingredients on a gasoline stove m the
wood shed and the turpentine exploded,
throwing the liquid in his face. The
sulphuric acid was the injurious sub
stance, and for a while Mr. Sheldon was
fearful he had injured his eyesight, bet
prompt medical help soon relieved him
from pain. The building was set on nre
by the explosion, and the 5re department
called, but before they reached the place
C H. Sheldon had extinguished the
flamea, but not before he had also burn
ed bis hands slightly from the liquid.
