It is claimed that they have found in
the Beaver valley a genuine article of
peat. A. V. Sutton, t peat bed No. 1,
Boone county, Nebraska, baa got a quan
tity which he is distributing for trial.
Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Manington called
at the Journal office Tuesday morning
of last week, and stated in conversation
that they are friends and neighbors of
Mr. Geo. Lehman, and have, one 15, and
the other 30 acres of wheat, which looks
nicely, stand evenly on the ground, all
in head, and they believe it is a little
better than friend Lehman's.
From a well informed citizen of Butler
county we learn that some of the official
of the Atchison & Nebraska R. R com
pany have gone east to see if negotiations
cannot be entered into with eastern cap
italists to extend the A. & X. road to
Columbus. We hope that they may be
successful in their efforts, for the con
nection is a very desirable one, not only
for Columbus, but also for the oompany
which proposes it. Such a road would,
at Lincoln, give us three competing lines
east, which with our present facilities
for shipping, would give us a good deal
more elbow room.
Last Wednesday the western bound
express on the Union Pacific brought
the Georgia exoursionists, for whose
visit to our city we are indebted to S. A.
Echols. Omaha had given them a warm
reception, and their journey hither had
been a very pleasant one. After supper,
theColumbus band serenaded the party,
discoursing their best music, to which
Mr. O. G. Jordan responded in a nsat
speech. A visit to the Pawnee reserva
tion, twenty-two miles west of the city,
was made Thursday. To Georgians, as
to all those who have never seen Indians
in their lodges, these were a great curi
osity. The party generally were well
pleased with the country, and we may
expect quite an accession to our popula
tion asja result.

On June 12th, the Indian School base
ball team journeyed overland to the city
of Golumbus, and crossed bats with an
aggregation of men representing the City
of Columbus in the baseball world. The
game started out very nicely and to all
appearances looked as though the un
pire was inclined to give both sides a
square deal and did fairly well up to the
last half of the ninth inning when, ac
cording to the idea of the major part of
the gentlemen of Columbus who witness
ed the game, he rendered three of the
rankest decisions ever rendered on a
baseball diamond. The result of the
game was a score of 4 to 3 in favor of
Columbus, this being the flrst time the
Indians were beaten this season. We
did not like it very well but took it and
looked good natured no matter how we
felt. Arrangements were made before
leaving the city for a return game to be
played on i he Indian athletic grounds
on June 25th. Accordingly Columbus
came over and were taken down the line
to the tune of 4 to 2 in favor of the
Indians. We learn that at the Colum
bus game, well any way one of the Co
lumbus papers said that the Indian
catcher got a bug in his ear and walked
down to the pitchei to have him take it
out, and thereby let a man walk in from
third base bringing in the winning score.
It is true the Indian catcher did walk
down toward the pitcher, but not uutil
after be had asked the umpire to call
time, and then Mr. Man did walk in, and
the umpire called it O. K. If that is
square ball playing, then we will admit
that we do not ''know anything about
the game However, at the game on
June 25, we had the bug taken out of
the catcher's ear and the ear filled with
batton so as there might not another bug
get in the ear, but after we found Mr.
All. Crolf, of Silver Creek, was going to
umpire the game we had the batton
taken out, for we knew he would be
square and if there was going to be a
good square man in the box we knew
there would be no bugs Hying. The
game was witnessed by 700 enthusiastic
people. Indian School News.
Another wedding was added to the
already large list of June weddings Wed
nesday, when at the home of the bride's
parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Kauffman,
occurred the marriage of their daughter,
Miss Ida, to Harry Lohr. The hour of
the wedding was four o'clock. The home
was beautifully decorated in smilax,
roses and carnations. At the appointed
hour the bride and groom descended the
stairs to the strains of wedding march
played by the groom's sister, Mrs. E. M.
Taylor, and found places under an arch
of smilax and roses, which formed the
marriage altar. The bride was gowned
in white organdie and carried white
roses. They were attended by Mips
Gusta Kauffman. sister of the bride, and
Will Dawson. Rev. Meissler, pastor of
the German Lutberean church, perform
ed the ceremony, which was witnesed
by relatives and a few intimate friends.
The only out of town guest was Miss
Minnie Biaer of Weeping Water. After
the wedding a six course dinner . was ser
ved, after which the happy couple de
parted for Portland, Oregon, where they
will visit for three weeks. The bride is
well known, having taught in the public
schools of this city for the past three
years, and by her kind and gentle man
ner has won many friends. The groom
is also well known and has lived here
the greater part or nis lire with the ex
ception of the past few months, which
has been spent in Grand Island, where
he is employed by the railroad. The
bride and groom have many friends,
who will join the Journal in extending
to them the heartiest congratulations.
Mr. and Mrs. Lohr will reside in Grand
Island.
P. J. Barron, formerly of this city, we
see by the daily papers, recently distin
guished himself by rendering a violin
solo in a theater at Scotts Bluffs, and
averted a fire panic. We have always
thought from the first time we ever
heard Pete scratch that old fiddle, that
it would either get him in trouble or
bring him fame, and we are tickled at the
outcome. Pete is also entitled to lead
the orchestra in a play house where they
have something better than kerosene
lamps for footlights. He says the solo
he played to quiet the exoited audience,
was the Austrian National hymn, but we
rather imagine it was a tune (original)
that he "pilfered" from the "soothing"
bow of Scotty Brainard in the "chapel"
of the old Journal office, where the bunch
used to assemble, after the weekly forms
were washed and the mail carted to the
postotBoe, to take a new lease on li'e
with the aid of a rather large hunk of
cheese, five pound of crackers and the
office sprinkler. Anyway, Pete is a hero.
Will the medal man kindly hand him
something worth the inspiration?
The commencement exercises of the
Jennie Edmundson Memorial hospital,
a training school for nurses, took place
Tuesday evening, June 16th, at the First

plomas of graduation were presented to
six persons, Mrs. Mary Healer Hunger
ford of Columbus, being one of the
graduates. Mrs. Hungerford formerly
lived in this city, but for the past three
years has been receiving instructions in
this hospital and her many friends will

P. M. O'Neil passed through town
Saturday with twenty Indian boys and
girls from the Genoa Indian school en
route to their home in Browning, Mon
tana. The school year at the Genoa
institution olosed last Saturday, and
many of the 350 pupils "will return to
their reservation homes, some of them
to remain permanently. It appears to
be the policy of the Indian department
to encourage reservation schools, and
employees of non-reservation schools
will be prohibited in the future from go
ing onto reservations to solicit pupils for
the Genoa and other non-reservation
schools. The prediction is nude that
some of the non-reservation schools will
be compelled to olose, as parents of
Indian children favor the reservation
schools in preference to the old system of
sending pupils away from ijome for in
struction. W. E. Huffer of Lost Greek township,
was in the oity Tuesday, returning home
from Colby, Kas.. where he owns a piece
of land. There has been a number of
conflicting reports concerning the crops
in that locality and he decided . to go
down and see juet'how crops were. What
he aaw more than pleased him, as hisi
renter has 170 acres of wheat almost
ready to cnt, that will yield from twenty
to twenty-five bushels to the acre. In
view of this Mr. Huffer has made a good
investment in western Kansas.
In the days of long ago, the Indian
walked ahead and his squaw followed
him, dragging the tent pole. When they
approached a settlement he did not take
the pole from her; she continued to drag
it till their destination was reached.
Nowadays, when a woman carries a
heavy burden, her husband is apt to step
back and relieve her when they reach the
place where the people will see them.

Some time ago the post office depart
ment requested the names of all road
overseers and county supervisors who
have charge of the roads traveled by

report on the condition of the Platte
bridge with Supervisor Schwarz. They
state that the bridge is reported in a
dangerouw condition and unless it is
looked after rnral route No. 5 will bedii -continued
As this is the bridge in which
Butler and Polk county are interested in
as well as Platte. Mr. Schwarz is doing
all he can to have these counties do their
share and place the bridge in ood con
dition. The discontinuing of this route
would not only inconvenience Columbus
merchants, but also the residents of
Polk and Butler counties served by the
route.

When a rnral route bandies more than
5,000 pieces of mail during each month
for three months, the department does

4 have bandied over the required amount
of mail for the last three months and will '
discontinue this after the first of July.
Besides relieving the carriers of extn
work, this inriicttes that the business of"
the local post office ia steadily increas

ruling made by the postoffice department
regarding the sending of nouvenir post
cards enclosed in tissue envelopes. When
cards are maile-I in this manner tlie
stamp should be placed on the outbid
of the tissue envelopes, otherwise tbft
department will treat it as though there
was no postage on it, and hold it for
postage due. If the card is one that
can be sent without enclosing in the en
velope, it will bn taken out and forward
ed. Some people resort to cutting out
the portion of the envelope over the
stamp, but this is held by the depart
ment to be the same as though this was
not done. So if you want your cards to
go without Iwinir held for postage, nut
the stamp on th outside of the envelope.
