Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Gerrard, W. T. Strother and Mrs. A. E. Matson of Monroe were in the city last Thursday to attend the funeral of Mrs 0. W. Zeigler. While doing some wiring for the elec tric light company Monday morning, lineman Joe Stovicek got a bad fall. He was standing on the limb of a tree, twenty feet from the ground, when it broke and let him fall with such force as to fracture two ribs. Fortunately the accident will not lay him up, and in a few days be wu'l be able to go to work again. One more announcement of a candi date for a county office was made during the laat week Louis Held, the present eoanty treasurer, announcing himself as a candidate to succeed himself for a ssoosdterm. This makes lour announce meats so far, and all for different offices, bat there still remains ten days in which those who are willing to make a cam paign to file for the nomination. The last two car loads of stone for the mew Union Pacific depot arrived last Saturday, and incluled in the shipment ware the two four ton cap stones which are to be placed over the doors on the south side of the building next to the main line. This material has been the cause of considerable delay, anil its arrival will give the contractor an oppor tunity to push the work along more rapidly. Members of the local camp of Sons of Veterans are making arrangements to go (o Fremont this month, to meet the National commander of the order, Edgar Allan, jr. As the division headquarters for Nebraska are located in this city, it was their privilege to entertain him, but Division Commander H. B. Reed was anxious that members of as many camps in the state as possible should attend the reception in honor of the Comman der, and as Fremont was centrally locat ed for the majority of the camps, it was decided on as the place for the comman der to stop in this state. Platte county's largest item in the as sessment of personal property is notes, which amount to $837,815. Next comes the value of the corn 'in the county, which is 490215. Money on hand or in bank amounts to $381,880. there are only fifty-one automobiles, valued a 819,525. Jewelry is rather scarce, only 81,800 be ing listed, but diamonds to the value of 86,035 were listed. The assessors found 1,146 'dogs who bad owners and listed them at $"5,740. In real estate, the im provements for the last year amounts to 8135,266, nearly all of it being credited to the city of Columbus.

KAVANAU6H Last Wednesday evening a special meeting or, the Commercial elub waa held for the purpose of discussing the proposition of Omaha parties to locate as ovsralLfaetory in this city. A bonus is not required in order to have the factory located hare, all that is asked being aid in securing suitable quarters, and the names of not less than fifty young men and women who will agree to work in the factory. The wages offered will run as high as $15 to 818 per week. This week representatives of the company will visit this city, and President Karr appointed Sam Gass, jr., Edgar Howard, G. Friachholz and R.8. Dickinson to aot as a committee to look after the interests of the city in the matter. Frank Keraea brock was elected secretary of the club to fill the vacancy caused by the resigna tion of Gus G. Becher, who resigned some time ago. A committee was also selected to assist in securing chautauqua grounds and also in the advance sale of tickets for the occasion. The club will tender a farewell reception and smoker to Messrs. A. Anderson and H. Bagatz, many years prominent business men of this city, prior to their leaving for Cali fornia. The club will assist in the en tertainment of the state convention rural letter carriers, which meets in this city September 1, and donated $25 for that purpose. Last Friday Chief of Polioe Sohack received a telegram from Fremont ask ing him to look out for a man who bad stolen some articles from the proprietor of an automobile garage in that city, and shortly afterward he located his man near the Union Pacific depot. It seems the fellow, who gave his name as Arthur Blohok of Cleveland, Ohio, had been working a few days in the garage in Fremont, and when a man with a car bound west came along, asked for a ride. When he left he took a suit case Con taining a 835 suit of clothes, a pin valued at 815, two pair of automobile gloves worth $5 each, and other articles. The stolen property waa recovered by the chief and he turned it and "his prisoner over to Sheriff Bauman of Dodge county, who came up in an automobile. In speaking of the arrest, Chief Schack saya it is the quickest catch he ever made, as in less than three hours after he received word the prisoner was on his way to Fremont. A petition, whioh had been circulated by Ex-Mayor Dtolansos, asking that the city council appoint a committee to in vestigate the prices charged by the elec tric light company, waa presented to that body at their meeting last Friday evening, and referred to a com mittee, composed of Sam Gass, A. W. Clark, J. L. Brunken and G. E. Willard. It seems that some of the elec tric light patrons are not satisfied with the rates charged, claiming they are not in accordance with the promises made at the time the franchise waa granted, and it is understood that this petition waa circulated for the purpose of bring ing the matter before the council for an airing. The patrons say they can show where they are not treated justly, and the light company insists that they are giving the people all they agreed to. The public will no doubt have a better understanding of the terms of the fran chise and the prices charged before the matter is settled. Sunday forenoon one of the Greeks employed on the extra gang that is dis tributing gravel balhst between this city and Schuyler, fell off the work train and was so badly injured that he died short ly after being brought here. No one seems to know just bow the accident happened, the first the train crew knew of it was the alarm given by bis fellow workmen, and the train was brought to a stop within a hundred feet. When the train left here the Greeks were riding on the flat cars, and some of them were careless about their safety, and it is supposed the injured man was one of these, and fell from the car. When found he was dragging in front of a truck that had cut off one leg and badly mangeled the other, and bruised bis body. He was bandaged up as best they could by his fellow workmen and train crew, and on his arrival here taken to the hos pital, but his injuries were such that he died soon after reaching the hospital. Samuel Boss, son of John Boas of the Gruetli neighborhood in Loup township, was drowned in the Platte south of DflBcan, last Thursday evening. In company with Charles and Samuel Ernst the boys went swimming where the water waa very deep. The Boas boy was an excellent awimmer, but was taken with "cramps" and drowned. The body was carried down stream for a mile and waa aot recovered until Friday morning. Faneral services were held Saturday morning from the Gruetli church, Rev. Braun conducting the services. The yoang mas waa twenty-one years of age, and was born in Loup township, where bis parents now reside. Miss Louise Marty, who haa bees at El Paso, Texas, for the past several months for her health, will return home Friday of this week and remain perman ently, provided her ailment does not make its appearance again. Miss Marty went south with the hope of regaining bar health, and her hopes have been fully realized, and it is possible that a permanent cure has been effected and that she can withstand the northern climate.

Aa a token of regard his friends presented him with a gold headed cane, L. W. Snow making the pre sentation in a few well ohoeen words. Mr. Ragatz responded, and said that it waa hard for him to leave tbe communi ty where be haa resided for so long and whose people he held iu such high es teem. He also said that bis first year in tbe weat wonld decide whether or not he would return to Columbus, and he would do so should the weetfsil to meet his ex nsotationa 8traying away of two of tbe race horses from this city, at tbe Grand Island races Saturday night, is causing their owners considerable uneasiness. The horses were "Fred C," a trotter be longing to Will Kauffman and "Denver Dick, a pacer owned by Tom Branigan. These two homes got out of their stalls Saturday night and the only trace of them was that they were seen east of Grand Island,' probably making their way to Columbus. It is supposed that they will eventually reach this city, but their owners do not like the idea of their being able to feast on all tbe green stuff to be found in the fields at present, after living on a diet suitable for a race home. The dissolution of tbe firm of Martin, Evans & Ireland is announced thia week, on the return of Dr. Martyn from the weat. Dr. O. D. Evans succeeds the old firm and retains tbe office building on Platte street. So fsr no announce ment further than this haa been made, but it ia understood that another firm of doctors, and possibly two, may be tbe re sult of the change. All the parties in terested intend to remain in this oity and continue the practice of their pro fession, the same as heretofore, except the obange in the location of their offices, f which they will announce later. Already there are one hundred and twenty-one entries for tbe races the last of thia month, and from the fact that thia number practically fills all the avail able alalia at tbe race track, the manage ment will no doubt have to construct some additional ones, tbe same as laat year. The popularity of tbe Columbus races is growing, as those who attended the Brat year returned a second time and the number was increased by others who attended for tbe first time Ami the same' condition will be true this year, so the races will be bigger and better than ever. Clarence W. Ilollenbeck and Miss AnnaF. Strack, both of thi9 city, were married in Omaha last Tuesday, tbe ceremony being performed by the coun ty judge of Douglas county Those from here who were present at the wed ding were Miss Rose Strack and John Strack, brother and sister of the bride. The bride ia a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Strack, and the groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Hollenbeok. After a short visit with Omaha friends they will go to Osbkosh, Neb., where the groom is employed as a stationery engineer. . Whether or not the carnival was re sponsible for the heavy rainfall of the first of the week, it is certain that there was plenty of moisture, and some to spare. Sundsy night the precipitation was 1:75 inches snd for Monday night 2.25 inches, making a total of four inobes of water in less than forty-eight hours. Some of the farmers report considerable damage to tbe small grain and delay with the harvest. In the city tbe main damage waa a number of Hooded cellars some of them heretofore considered dry in all kinds of weather. Tuesday afternoon two attachments against the carnival company were filed in Judge O'Briens court by T. W. Adams of tbe Olother hotel and H. E. Mussel man of the Pacifio hotel. Tbe amount of the two claims was less than $200 and were for board and lodging of the mem bera of tbe company. Sheriff Carrig took charge of the show and closed it down that afternoon. Later in the day the matter was satisfactorily adjusted, and tbe carnival waa doing business as usual in tbe evening, being patronized by good crowds. Columbus made a splendid showing at the Grand Island races last Saturday. Out of the 9600 in purses $375 was taken by two Columbus horses, $225 by Tom Branigan and $150 by Jamea Howell. These homes were entered in the trotting snd paoing races, and it indicates that thUfoity ia the home of some speedy horses. From Grand Island they went to Tskamah, but they will arrange their campaign so that Columbus people can see what they will do on their home track during tbe races the last of- this month. Miss Mabel Drawbaugb, daughter of Mr. and Mm. Joseph Drawbaugb, and John Berger. a well-to-do young farmer residing six miles south of the city, were married in Lincoln Jast Wednesday, the ceremony being performed by the coun ty judge of Lancaster county. Mr. and Mm. Berger returned to this city and af ter July 15 they will be at home to their friends, at their farm home. Miss Drawbaugb ia a graduate of the Colum bus schools and baa been a Platte coun ty teacher for several years. Jos Gross of Chicago, a former busi ness man of this city, passed through yesterday. He had been to Madiaos lookisg after his interests there. Congregational Church. Sunday aohool :,. 9:45 Morning worship 11 Y.P.aC.

In reviewing tbe year'a work the pastor said that while we have not reached our desire, yet we have mueh to be thankful for. Never ia the history of the eburoh have there been so many aooeaaora to the church in a single yearas in the one just past. More than half of these have joined on confession of faith.
