At this writing glorious uncertainty
hangs over the great Indian Council as
to what may precisely be the result, f av
orible. or unfavorable to a treaty ceding
the Black Hills.
President Grant passed west on a spe
lal train on the Union Pacific Friday
evening of last week. The train tarried
a few moments at the depot, where our
citizens were afforded the pleasure of
seeing and greeting the president of the
United States.
It is important that fireguards be
made around your your houses, barns
granaries, stacks, etc., and it will be best
for you if you do not let the fire run
over any part of your farm. We have
noticed that where the annual fires have
btn kept off the prcirie, even two years
only, trees of different kinds are spring
ing up and doing well, especially in
ravines. Say nothing, however, of the in
creased value to the land and soil, the
losses which occur, more or lees every
year, should be sufficient inducement to
all to guard against the fires. The grass
is drying rapidly every day, and as there
has been a rank growth this season, too
much care cannot be exercised, and this
matter cannot be Been to too Boon.
The Schmidt farm, near Col

Undoubtedly one of the greatest
money winners of recent years is George
Broadhuret's play of Ameriican life,
"The Man of the Hour." which will
appear at North Theater Wednesday,
October 13, under the management of
Wm. A. Brady and Jos. R. Grismer.
Like the famous "Way Down East," it
seems to be possessed of the same
mysterious qualities of longevity that
makes that dramatic evergreen, and is
destined to repeat its wonderful history.
Its greatest prestige is shown by its
six hundred performances in New York
live months in Boston and six months
in Chicago. Its theme is as fiesh to
day as when the play created a sensa
tion three yeass ago. It has a charm
ing love story, real and untheatric. It
has a brilliant comedy that sends sparks
of radiant humor flying and keeps an
audience in an uproar of mirth. Among
the splendid players who are to present
"The Man of the Hour" here are Arthur
Maitland, Felix Haney, John Moore,
William Cullington, T. S. Guise, M.J.
MacQuarrie, Paul Byron, William Lloyd,
H. J. Hewitt, George A. Cameron, Ed
ward Dewey, Madeline Winthrop, Anna
Reader and Florence Mack.

Tuesday the board of supervisors of
this county, let the contract for repair
ing the Platte river bridge south' of, this
city, to the Standard Bridge company of
Omaha. -This .means that when the
work is completed that a permanent and
substantial bridge will span that river,
is a portion of the repairs will consist of
three' eighty foot Bteel spans, and the re
mainder of the wooden structure will be
put in first class condition. The board
have handled this matter so that the
counties of Polk and Butler will be com
pelled to pay their share toward the re
pairs, as provided by a law recently en
acted. While it seems considerable of
a burden for Piatte con uty to go ahead
in this matter, this was practically the
only way out of it as those living in the
counties of Polk and Butler who would
be benefited by a bridge that would en
able them to come to Columbus, were in
the minority in their counties and un
able to get their county boards to assist
in this undertaking. But while Platte
county is assuming the responsibility
for the present, the legal advice given
the board makes it is almost certain that
the other counties will be compelled to
pay their share in the end. Putting
this bridge in good condition not only
means much to those residents of the
counties who have occasion to use it,
but also Oolumbus and the adjoining
pari of Platte county. Some day it
will dawn on the legislature of Nebraska
that sach brid(fee lhis 8U0Uld bebuilt
s ; ii ii i
and maintained by the state, as a large
percent of those who use them are not
residents of the counties who build
them, and then a law will be passed that
will relieve all counties with rivers run
ning through them or on their borders
of a large and unjust burden.
Among the important real estate trans
fers last week were two on Olive street,
Hoffman and Hieneman purchasing the
the building they are occupying as a
tailor shop, and Sam G ass, sr., buying
the building just north of his present
location, which was owned by theComp
ton estate. Mr. Gass securing this
building forecasts a nice improvement
for the corner of Twelfth and Olive, and
the building he now occupies will prob
ably be purchased by the First National
Bank, and would enable them to erect
the modern structure they have had in
contemplation for some time. In all
probability' Mr. Gass would then replace
tbe building he purchased with another
modern building, and this would prac-1

stead of making one payment himself
Green gave Thompson 85 to make it
with, but instead of doing that Thomp

this afternoon and Thompson claims
that the $5 was due him, and that when
he used it he had a right to.

Tuesday evening about sixty members
of the Commercial Club responded to
the call issued by Secretary Kersenbrock
for a meeting to discuss a proposition
submitted to that body by M. E. Smith
& Co., of Omaha, regarding tbe starting
of an overall factory in thin city. A rep
resentative of that firm was in the city
a short time ago and inspected a suitable
building for the purpose the Cover
building on Eleventh street, now occupi
ed by tbe Columbus Automobile com
pany. After discussing the proposition,
the club appointed a committee consist
ing of M. D. Karr, J. J. Burke and E. P.
Dussell to look after the securing of the
building and report at a meeting to be
held this (Wednesday) evening. It is
understood that the Columbus Automo
bile Company who are compelled to seek
larger quarters, are willing to transfer
their lease to the factory, providing
some action is taken at once. Ab a
point for an overall factory this place
has been carefully investigated by M.E.
Smith & Co , and the proposition sub
mitted to the Commercial club is such
that there is little doubt but that an
aggreement will be reached regarding
the location of the factory here. At the
beginning they will employ twenty-five
people, but will increase that number
to three hundred, as soon as that
amount of help can be secured.

It will require the earn of f 8200 to
meet the expenses of -the city of Colum
bus for the fiscal year, that being tbe
amount of the annual appropriation
sheet passed by the council last Friday
night.
Among the reports presented, was that
of the committee empowered to buy a
site for the new city jail. They report
ed having purchased a lot in Block 119,
just west of Paul Hagel's cold storage
plant, the price being $550, and it is pre
sumed that a suitable city jail will be
erected soon. This location is closer in
than the present one, and more conven
ient for the officers.
At this meeting the council took up
tbe electrio light matter and a resolution
was introduced which will no doubt be
the means of giving a fair and impartial
hearing to all who are dissatisfied with
the demand and rates established by the
electrio light company, and all griev
ances will pratically be handled by the
judiciary committee of the city council.
Following is the resolution:
Resolved, That tbe committee on
judiciary be empowered to engage the
services of a competent .person for the
purpose of investigating the consump
tion ui ugot ior citizens woo are noi
satisfied with their demand as fixed by
the Columbus Light, Heat and Power
Company, and who wish to arbitrate
their demand services with said company.
CitizenB desiring to arbitrate may report
to any member of the judiciary com
mittee, when all information necessary
will be furnished and the consumption
of their lights figured.
This action on the part of tbe council
ought to practically settle the dispute
between the light company and their
patrons, as it wiil no doubt .result in ad
justing matters. Those who are not
satisfied with their demand and the
amount charged for their lights should
take advantage of this, and present their
case to the proper committee.

Last Thnmdav AViWtinor n nnlnainr
in the Palmer Gleaning and Dye works
almost completely wrecked the building
and damaged the stock and fixtures to
the amount of over $3,000. Following
the explosion fire started and burned so
fiercely that it was with the greatest
dificulty a portioa of the clothing 'wap
saved. Jus t bow the explosion occurred
no one seems to know, but it is certain
it came from the dry room, which was
filled with freshly cleaned clothing. In
this room there was a radiator, fed with
steam from the boiler, and the temper
ture is kept high so as to dry as quickly
as possible. Just as the explosion oc
curred, Adolph Berger, an employee
opened the door of the dry room, and
this was followed by the explosion and
a sheet of flame. Mr. Berger was in tho
path the fiame and was badly burned
about the face and arms, so that it will
be some tima before he is able to work
again. The building, which was owned
by V. H. Weaver, is practically a total
wreck and will not be repaired, as Mr.
Weaver will either dispose of it or build
a modern hrick building on the situ
He had no insurance on the building.
Mr.Palmer carried over 1,100 insurance
on the stock and fixtures, nnd this will
pBrtially compensate him for the loss.
He at once resumed business in the
Whitmoyer building, north, of the Tele
gram, and will use all of his machinery
that was not damaged.
Fredericka Karlinn. one of

Muldow, Ruseia, May 28, 1829. Here
she was married in 1848 to Christ Ess
linger, who died in 1856. Later she
married John Karlinn, and in 187:5, with
the family they came to America and to
Platte county, where they settled on a
homestead on Shell Creek. Here she re
sided until two years ago, when she went
to live with her daughter, Mrs. Rudolph
Muller. Mrs. Karlinn was a member of
the Shell Creek German Reformed
church, and the funeral, wbieh will bo
held Wednesday, at one o'clock from
the home and then to the church, will

Saturday morning, Amos, the only 6on
of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. W. Pearsall, of
Omaha, died Saturday after a short ill
ness. The following account of his
death is taken from tbe Omaha Bee:
Amos, the 6-year-old son of Charles W.
Pearsall, died Saturday morning of polio
myelitis, after a few days' illness, at the
family home, 1542 Georgia avenue.
With the death of Amos Mr. and Mrs.
Pearsall are bereft of their entire family
of three boys, all of whom have met with
sudden deaths within the last few years.
Three young daughters still survive as a
comfort in their breavement. DeLinite
arrangements have not yet been made
for the funeral, but it will probably take
place at 2 p. m., Sunday from the fam
ily home and will be in a large measure
private.
Sunday evening seventy-five land
seekers left Columbus on No. 3, for Sid
ney, where they will join the excursion
to attend the great land sale in Banner
county, which is being conducted by C
M. Grueuther. This sale is probably
the largest one of its kind ever pulled
off in Nebraska, and while the land is
all located in the western portion of t'i.e
state, it is all desirable and will at no
distant day be as valuable as that fur
ther east. Mr. Gruenther has worked
to get the public interested in this sale,
and judging from those who left Colum
bus and Platte county, he has succeeded
first rate. Chris hns handled as many re
feree sales of land within the last few
years as any man in "the state, and ho
thoroughly understands it.
Wdl CulumbtiB be included in tho
state base ball league, which is in pro
cess of organization? That is for the
local fans and other interested to docide.
Last Thursday evening a meeting was
held in Hastings to organize a state lea
gue and this city was favorably mention
ed, and considered desirable as a mem
ber of the state league. But in view of
the patronage accorded the came during
the lost taw years there is some doubt in i
tbe minds of the promoters of the dtute
league as to Columbus supporting a
team, and is evinced by the Hastings
Tribune, which says that Columbus is
large enough to support a ball team,
but there is doubt here as to wheather
the town's base ball spirit is as large as
its population.
Last Saturday afternoon tbe first
foot ball team of the Columbu3 High
school defeated the Genoa High school
team at Genoa, the score being 16 to 0
in favor of Columbus. This is tbe first
game played this season by the Colum
bus team. Tbe team was accompanied
to Genoa by Ross W. Elliott, physical
director of the city school, and a num
ber of the lady teachers.
