society of the Congregational church,
Toastmaeter W. M. Cornelius introduced
the first speaker of the evening, E. R.
Gurney, of Fremont, who bad for bis
subject, "The Great One Term Party,"
and for almost an hour the speaker hand
led his subject in an able manner, going
back to the fonndation of the "One Term
Party" and showing that history repeats

cessfully manage the affairs of the state
and nation. He was followed by Post
master Kramer, whose snbject was,
"What shall we do with our ex postmast
ers." Mr. Kramer said the people of the

Realizing that the only way to secure
a permanent Platte bridge south of the
city, is for the city of Columbus and
Columbus township to build it. Voters
of this city will be called upon to vote
bonds in the sum of 30,000 to partially
cover the cost of the structure. The
committee appointed by the Commer
cial club, to look up the legal end of
the bond proposition reported that there
was nothing to prevent the bonds being
issued, and asked the council to call for
a bond election, to be held on the same
date as the spring election. Council
men .Willard, Gass and Clark were ap
pointed a committee to draft the ordin
ance, which will be presented at the
meeting of the council next Wednesday
evening. The bonds will be for $30,000,
bearing 4 J per cent interest, to run fifteen
years, and optional after five years.

Columbus people will have ample op
portunity to use electricity for many
purposes besides cooking or at least if
they do not, it will not be the fault of

trical cooking utensils at the Columbus
Mercantile Co. store and have two ex
pert demonstrators to take eaie of the
display. Besides the oven and other

After all the anxious watching and
waiting for the river to break up, the ice
west out Monday evening almost as
qaiet as it did a year ago when it had
been hardly heavv enough' during the
winter for the ice men to secure a supply.
Bnt this year the heavy ice could not be
moved by the small quantity of water in
tbe river, and after a channel was rut
through the rest of it settled down on
the sand bars. Monday afternoon and
evening reports from Genoa and Monroe
indicated that there was likely to be a
serious flood and every precaution was
taken to prevent any loss of life or stock
on tbe bottom. Late in tbe evening a
number left their homes and sought
refnge on higher gronnd, but the morn
ing showed no signs of the flood and
their homes and property were .not dam
aged in the least. At the rail road bridge
west of town' there was considerable
water at midnight, bnt by morning this
had receded. The Burlington passenger
took an early otart for Lincoln to be on
the south side of the river, but their
track remained intact. Some trouble
was reported near Rogers Sunday even
ing and a work train and gang was sent
down to repair it. The action of water
and ice on the rip-rap work put in last
summer has been much to the advantage
of those who had it, as in several places
tbe rip-rap held tbe ice and caused tbe
current to form a new channel, which
will probably be permanent for the
present.
Tbe bti pur visors were in BiBsion Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday of this
week, tlm session being devoted to al
lowing bills. The contract for the coun

work for a number of years. The con
tract for painting and adjusting the
Loup river bridge was let to the same
company. A petition wa. presenteu to
the board asking that the Nebraska Biene
be named as one of tbe official papers,
and they rescinded their former action
in selecting the official papers, the list
now being tbe Columbus Telegram,
Humphrey Democrat, Platte Center Sig
nal and Nebraska Biene. each receiving
one-fourth of tbe legal rate, instead of
one-third each, as tbe division was before
the Biene wasvadded to the list.

his injuries. Efforts to locate relatives
were in vain, all the information obtain
able was that in all probability he was a
Greek. The remains were taken in
charge by Undertaker Gass and were
shipped to tbe medical college at Lin
