The biggest btrgain that has come to our notice is The Daily State Jourua! without Sunday from now nntil January 1, 1907, for only 50 ceutB. This is such a small price that it can only be made to introduce the paper into new homes. The publishers claim that this is not a scheme to get you on their books and then keep on sending, hut that the paper will be stopped on Janu- ary 1, 1907. It would be hard to find a better wsj" of investing 60 cents. One of the first permanent bnildings to be erected in the old Chinatown dis trict is now well under way.' It is a "Class C" with pressed brick exterior, 'and will comprise, four stores and about 50 rooms for a lodging house. The picturesque old hillside with its squalid 'tenements have been purged by fire, but the placid Celestials will gather on tho old site, in more conventional houses, and set up agaiu their jo-s-houses and pat out their cabalistic red paper and their crimson lanterns. There will always be an Oriental city in the heart o' San Francisco. Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Dack and son Bruce, returned last Saturday evening from a ten days' visit with relatives at Clarinda, Iowa.

Mr. . Dack thinks he has one of the nicest ' running machines in this locality and it ia certainly a fine one. Miss Rose Gregorious and A. O. Scott, two well known Columbus people, were married in Council Bluffs, Saturday, October 6, by Kev. DeLong. They went to Omaha to take in the Ak-sar-ben and surprised their friends by getting mar ried. On their return home they were treated to a genuine old fashioned charivari.

Ed was em ployed in the Columbus office for a num ber of years and in. comparing the methods of transacting business he finds some things quite different there. While the town of Empire is quite small and does not furnish much of the postal business, the surrounding camps make up the deficiency. In tbat country the registry business leads all other, the amount done in that line being enor mousenough" for a large city; and the foreign registers constitute the bulk of this. Another convience that Uncle Sam provides for those on the Isthmus ia the issuing of foreign money orders. Instead of drawing a foreign order they draw a domestic order on the New York office and instruct tbat office as to what country the order should be drawn on. This saves much time and k quite con venient in handling this branch of the.

Dack ...Druggist.- A special train of sis coaches from St. Joseph, Mo. arrived in Columbus yester day afternoon having on board a part of sixty-two. wholesale and retail busi ness men from the southern city. The excursion was conducted by the busi ness men's commercial club of St. Joe and wiil visit over one hundred towns and cities in Nebraska and Kansas During their short stop in our city the various business establishments .were visited, and as this fraternal part of the program was being carried out, the Fourth Regement band which accom panied the excursionists entertained our cftizens with music. The members of the club distributed neat eorvenirs in the shape of padlocks with the inscrip tions ' lock your future with St. Joseph, Missouri." E. L. McDonald, an old time printer and newspuper man, but who is now deputy city clerk, accom panied the excursionsioeists is special correspondent for the St. Joseph daily papers, and while here he took an op portunity to visit the local papers. The St. Joseph people are hnstlers and be lievo in going after business wherever they can find it. Accompanying the party was a car with railroad officials aboard, who were looking after the well fare of the excursionists. Everybody knew it was Bryan day in Cclnmbuslastr'Stfturdtsy. Before noon the crowd commenced to gather, and when the branch trains arrived they were loaded down. The Colum bus band met the incoming trains and after the last one pulled in, the Spalding trains, they marched to the North Opera house, where the speaking was held. The opera house was crowd' ed to its capacity and a number were unable to find seats. Mr. Bryan was the first speaker and his talk was along the same line as he has been making. He claimed the republicans had stolen the democratic thunder and his anti railroad talk was along the line of gov ernment ownership. A. C. Shallenber ger followed Mr. Bryan, but he was handicapped by being preceded by a presidential candidate. Ihe Spalding train was held until after the speaking and quite a number from that line were in attendance. In the evening the Nor folk train was obliged to add another coach in order to be able to take all the people up that line. Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Chambers had a number of friends to entertain over Sun day and among them were Mr. and Mrs. Barkalow of Denver, Mr. and Mis. Myron Wheeler and Mrs. Stoney of Lincoln. Mr. and Mrs. R. W.

Stock shipments up the Spalding branch have been quite heavy recently, the large corn crop in tbat locality being an inducement for feeders to buy heavi ly.
