After the installation ceremonies, re freshments were served in Macken hall Sells-Floto 8howi. Mr. Alan Rogers, the famous Southern critic, says: ' When a man gets too old to take a day off when the circus comes to town it is time for him to get busy with his will, or else have the doctor in to overhaul his liver. The man who does not care for the sights and sounds of the sawdust arena is certainly' badly out of joint somewhere. This Sells-Floto Circus Beautiful is the limit. The writer has never been able to care very much for a four-ring show with elevated stage and hippo drome attachment. How is one man to watch four rings at once, keep, tab on a bicycle act on the elevated stage and piok the winner of the hippopotamus race at one and the same time? This is not a good business for the eyes, besides sending one away with the feeling that he has missed something. When you go to tiie circus you want to see it all, and that is the charm of the Sells-Floto show. From first to last every act is snappy and up-to-date, and you can't miss a bit of it unless you shut your eyes. But the great hit of the long program is "the Girl in Red," the little lady who does the bareback act. Her name is a mystery, gentle reader, but she looks as if it might be Mary or some other old faabioned name. She is just a fresh, un spoiled little girl, the neatest, daintiest little girl that ever wore fluffy skirts or jumped through a hoop. The old-timers on the front rows sat np and Rasped, with pure admiration when she danced into the ring. In fact, oae enthusiast expressed his feelings by sitting up so straight he fell over back ward. There are so many good features ia the Sells-Floto program it is entirely worthy a visit when it comes here Fri day, July 10. . Magnolia Consolidated Gold Mines Company. W. A. McAllister, Henry Wilckens, M. C. Caltoand O. C. Shannon took the early morning train for Omaha on Mon day to attend a meeting called to perfect the organization of the Magnolia Con solidated Gold Mines Company. The company was organized with a capital stock of 1,000,000 shares of the par value of $1.00 per share, fully paid and non-assessable stock, 200,000 shares of stock being placed in the treasury as a reserve for future possibilities, such as the erection of mills, reduction works or power plants, etc., for the reduction of ores on its own ground. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, Geo. N. Hicks, Omaha; vice president. O. C. Shannon, Columbus; treasurer. M. O. Calto, Oolumbus; secretary, L C Hicks, Columbus. The company owns the following min ing claims, viz: The Magnolia, patent No. 365; the Golden Wedge lode; Mo hawk lode; Golden Beauty lode; Colum bus lode; Tuscarora lode; Columbus Mill site and Golden Beauty Mill site, all lying continguous and in one group, and situated about 9 miles went of Boul der, Colorado, and about 5 miles from a station on the narrow-gauge railroad from Boulder to Eldora andWard, Colo rado, and only 1200 feet from anew cus- ' torn mill, built especially for the treat ment of the ores of Magnolia mountain. The company will at once re-timber the old workings and build ore houses pre paratory to taking out ore and begin steady shipments of the better grades of ore, and also make arrangements for running the ore on the old dumps to the custom mill. The company has placed on the market a few thousand shares at 25 cents per share to meet the necessary expense of placing this property on a producing basis, and as it is a mine in every sense of the word, the stock will quickly be snapped up.

About a mile east of this the storm was very destructive, sweep ing everything. The German school, which has been taught by Prof. W. Reese, closed Tues day for the summer vacation.

It is twenty three miles wide and from 100 to 2,000 feet deep. The entire region surround ing the lake is picturesque almost be yond description, and a never ending de light to the eye.

These they .cannot use without waste unless a protein ration is given as a neutralized. To encourage feeders to take up the balanced ration as the beet for cattle,' the packers are to have exhibits at the National Corn exposition to be held in Omaha next December, and will show in the cuts of meat the superiority of that from alfalfa-corn 'fed steers. It will be one of the most interesting ex hibits ever shown at any exposition and the expense wdl be entirely paid by the packers.

It was very pleasent for the Osceola friends to have the privilege of greeting their old time merchant prince, Frank Ferguson, last week. The wind storms in and around Osce ola have been quite severe. Trees blown down, and small houses racked and tumbled over and it was not Hallow'en night, either. Col. L. A. Beltzer put in a little of his spare time at Lincoln last week, and there is every indication that his gentht voice will be heard at the Democratic convention at Denver next week. People in these parts are discussing the question as to whether a cyclone cave is a luxury or a necessity and the probability is that it will be decided that it has been a great necessity in the past week, any way. Dean 8talnakerof Omaha, who used to live at Osceola, and has a host of friends here yet,paid this charming city a visit last week, but that was not a priming to the way he was charmed at Columbus on his way back to bis home in Omaha. Art Ryan and Doctor Potter of Shelby, found it necessary to make a trip over to Oolumbus hut week, but that is not out of the ordinary, for many of the Shelby citizens show by their levelheadneM. that they know where to go to get out of the "dry." State Senator Aldrich ia vary much in evidence in these parts these days. In fact congreasaMB and would be congress men are making hay while the sun 9bines in the 4th district, realizing that there is but a couple of montbs left be fore they will be elected, or their goose cooked T. W. Bain, an old veteran of the civil war, has been making an extended visit back in old New York state, and as the good book says, "It is not good for man to be alone," Mrs. B. packed her trunk and went back there last week, to help the old gentleman finish up his visit and come back here to God's country. The powers that be at Stromsburg have come to the conclusion that with a levy of twenty-two and a half mills on each and every dollar of taxable property in the city, that they can run the town and make it bud and blossom as the lose for this municipal year. They A .JA ALA.? .- . uugat. u id a town mai is as ary as that is. William stokes, formerly of this city, now of Norfolk, knows how it is and when he wants to have a fine time he comes over here to his former home city. He came over here last week, came by tbewayoruolumbus and Central City, Try the Journal for fine commercial ana men weni oacK oy tfte way Fremont I printing. and Omaha. His idea was that Colum bus was about the smoothest place that he had struck on his tour. Emil Olson and Roy Ericson got a little tired of waiting for June weddinsa and June brides at Osceola, and they hied themselves away to the city of Bellevue, on the north side, where they attended the wedding of Miss Bertha Hope Lee, formerly of Silver Creek, to Walter Charles Baer, of York. Miss Lee was the charming daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Lee, and has a large number of friends in and about Osceola. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Anderson, were in the city of Columbus the fore part of the week. Mrs. Anderson had gone on before to make a visit to her parents Mr. and Mrs. Ross Welch, and enjoy Co lumbus gayety's for a week, and then Frank pulled out on the Saturdav eve ning flyer, by the way of Central City, and reached Columbus Sunday morn ing. Frank is the manager of the largest lumber yard of Osceola, and has tbe ap pearance as though time was dealing very gently with him. aVBwfcBaVanBafcJ aV To COLORADO and September 3tth, 198. return.
