During the month nf August, 1877; the rainfall was 1.55 inobes and the temperature for the month was 72:12 degrees. There was slight hail on the 16th and 20th of the month. J. C. Echols returned to thiB city irom Meorgia on Sunday last, tie says the southern people preferred Tilden for president, but they seem to be con tented under Hayes1 administration. F. Brodfuehrer began the removal of his business and dwelling Iioubb on Saturday and will leave it on the pub lic square until he completes his new business building on the site of his old one. Milton Brown is home again from the Black Hills, and is fully satisfied that this "neck of woods" can not be excelled. Columbus, he think, is far ahead of any town between here and the Hills, for business and general enterprise. Wheat was 72 cents a bushel last Fri day at York; at Clarksvilln 70 cents; at Grand Island 75 cents. It is suppos ed that Grand Island dealers have special rates to enable them to compete with buyers at Hastings, on the B. & M. Congregational Church. In the most conspicuous place of one of our city papers there appeared last week this sentence in large leaded type "Your money is your best friend." Men, is that true? Have we reached the time in our American civilization when we admit that money is the greatest good? Money at best is only a meanB and un der certain conditions is devoid of value. The great seer beheld gold so common that a city was paved with it. The love of a pure woman, the caress of n little daughter, the joy of a manly son, the "snuggling up1' to a true man, a clear conscience, a christian character, a love trellised on Jesus are so far beyond gold that a comparison is distasteful. Xo wine man questions the value of money, but tLe one great man said "money is the root of all evil," while Christ pointed to a man's possession as "these things." The Congregational people invite you to come to their church next Sunday morning, 11 a. in. and 8 p. m., where you will hear shout man's best friend. The morning sermon will be from the subject: The Master's Way; the evening from the subject: An Universal Desire, or The Possession of True Greatness. William L. DimU'E, Minister.

KAVANAUGH While taking the chain oil a car that was coupled in hie train, Brakeman Ed-J wards came very near losing his life early Monday. The accident occurred just east of the passenger depot, where Edwards was removing the chain whioh had been pat on in place of the broken draw head. He had given the engineer a signal to back up bo the chain would oe loosened, ana was between tne cars at the lime. When the train came back it was with much more force than be expected, and be was caught between the two cars and squeezed. As soon as the man was caught the other brakeman signalled the engineer and he moved the train ahead. The injured man was tak en into the depot and later to the hospi tal, and for a time it was thought his in juries were serious, but at present he is resting easy and there is every prospect of his recovery About the only important matter be fore the city council at their regular meeting last Friday evening, outside of the routine business was the appropria tion for the ordinance for the year com mencing the first Tuesday in May and ending August 11, 1911. The total amount required for the expenses of the city for this period is $41,091.10, divided into the several funds. For the general fund the amount is 822,47050. The library fund will take $2,000, and the water works $8,165. It will require $10,350 to pay the interest on the bond ed indebtedness of this city, which in cludes the Loup and Platte river bridge bonds, and the water works sinking fund and also the extension bonds. For the last Gscal year the total receipts have been $46,620.54, while the disburse ments were $55,946.97. Carl Schubert, jr., writes from Odessa, Oregon, to his father in this city, telling his experience in fighting forest fires in the mountains near that place. He says the fire is the worst known in fifty years and the loss of property something enormous . Fighting fire for the govern ment is the same as enlisting in the army or until the fire is put out. The pay is four dollars a day, and you pay one dollar a day for board. The hardest part of the work is olimbing the moun tains to reach the fire. Carl says there is plenty of game in the mountains where he is deer being especially numerous and not hard to get within shooting distance. The mountain cli mate agrees with him, and he is enjoy ing the best of health. While temporarily deranged, Ed (irossuitikiaus, one of the pioneers of Polk county, and a resident of Hack berry precinct, took his life last Thurs day. A few years ago Mr. Grossnicklaus suffered from sunstroke, which was followed by a siege of typhoid fever, and this affected his mind, so that at times he was not responsible for his actions. He fully realized his condition and often warned his family to watch him, as he feared that sometime he would attempt to take his life, but evading their watch fulness be succeeded in committing suicide by hanging hioiBelf. Mr. GroBS nicklauB was one of the inlluential and respected men of his localit'. He leaves besides his wife, two daughters, both of whom reside at home. Four years ago James Porter and three companions made an unsncessfnl at tempt to rob the Bank of Monroe and were caught and sentenced to the peni tentiary. The term of Porter expired last week, counting his good time, but when he was discharged from the peni tentiary be was arrested by a United States marshal for breaking into the poet office at College View, Neb. At the time of the robbery four years ago a post office inspector came to this eity to take a look at the fonr robbers, as he thought they were responsible for the College View job, and the arrest of Por ter is the result of his investigation. Last Wednesday evening Albert New man, nine year old son of Mr. and Mrs, Ed Newman met with an accident that may cost him his life. He was running in the rear of A. M. Gray's buggy and just as an auto, driven by Mattie Abts, passed the buggy he jump ed in front of the machine. He was struck on the head by the fender and for a time it looked as though he was not seriously injured, but later develop ments indicated internal injuries, and since then he has been in such a condi tion as to require a trained nurse. Sunday morning a small wreck just east of the Loup river bridge blocked the westbound main line track of the Union Pacific the best port of the day. The train was No. 1G. and when at the point the wreck occurred the engineer applied the air and a box car containing an auto mobile truck buckled and broke into, one end going down the side of the bank and the other remaining on the track. After the local sertion men had worked on the wreck all morning, the wrecker was sent out from Grand Island and cleared the track by 5 p. m. Between 5 and 7 o'clock Snnday morn ing, Jonas Welch was stricken with paralysis, which affected the right Bide of his body and deprived him of bis speech. At first bis condition was con sidered very serious, but later reports indicate a slight improvement. On account of bis advanced age the attack will no doubt confine him to his bed for some time. His two sons, W. J. and R. M. of Monroe, were called to bis bedside Sunday. Dr. Naumann. Dentist 13 St. Try Ijeavy'a Laxative Lozenges. Dr, Morrow, office Lueschen building. Wra.

SPECIAL PRICES NOW L W. WEAVER t SN HARNESS AND COAL On The Diamond. Columbus has so far been exceeding the expections of the most enthusiastic fans, now having a good lead for second place. After Fremont took two games from them they went to Seward, where they took both of the games from that team. This tied them with Grand Island for second place, and as the next two games Saturday and Sunday, were with the Islanders they came here with the expectation of taking one and pos sibly two games from the locals. But they did not suoeeed. even if Welch of Omaha was with them, and instead of taking a game, they lost both to Colum bus. The games were both played Sun day and the first one lasted fifteen in nings, and for a time it looked as though the visitors would take it, but the locals scored in the ninth, making the score a tie, and again succeeded in crossing the plate in the fifteenth, winning the game. The second game was won by the locals in the first two innings, they crossing the plate three times. Grand Island scoring but once in the seventh. Columbus won both games, Monday and Tuesday, from Seward, and utill re tains her bold on second place. In both the Seward games Columbus played ex cellent ball. Wednesday and Thursday Fremont is here for two games, and then Columbus goes to Grand Island tne the two flowing games. The race for second place in the state league will result in an exciting finish. Grand Island and Columbus are both trying to secure this, as Fremont has the pennant beyond all doubt. So far both Columbus and Graud Island have been winning every day, and with the two teams closing the season at Grand Island the finish will be close. Last Friday an exhibition game was played at Shelby and McBetb, whose home is in Shelby, was in the box for Columbus. He succeeded in holding the Shelby team down to one run, while Co lumbus crossed the plate seven times. The boys reported a good crowd and a good time, but the trip over muddy roads in autos was not all that could be desired. State League Standing. Won. Lout. Pet.

Monday did aot look promising for observance or Firemen's Day, and for a tim it looked as though rain would interfere as it did a year ago. But weather cleared by the time set for exercises, and there was nothing to the pleasures of the day. The parade, which was headed by the Columbus City Band, was composed of the Painters and Carpenters' union and the fire department. After marching through the business part of the city the parade reached the park, where the exercises of the afternoon were held.

Boys between 10 and 13 years of age, MoBday and Wednesday at 4:00 p. m. and Satur day at 10:30 a. m . Boys between 13 and 16 years of age, on Tuesday aad Thurs day at 4:00 p. m. and Saturday at 9:00 a. m. It will soon be time to open the boys' religious work and the Bible study work of the boys' department which was quite successful last winter. There should be even more enthusiasm and greater re sults than last season because our ex periences should advaace us in know ledge and courage. The boys have de monstrated their ability to handle their end of the association work with credit and there is not a boy that will shirk hia duty when called upon to do strenuoas committee work this winter. The me thod of carrying on this work may not be the same as it was last season for there must be many better plans than what has been tried here. The thing for the members of the boys' department to do is to rally about the men, Mr. Whitney and Mr. Anderson, who are to lead them this winter aad make things move some how. Prof, and Mrs. Royal P. Jarvia of Knoxville, Tenn., are guests at the Q. 8. Elliott home this week, Mrs. Jarvia arriving last Friday aad Mr. Jarvia Wed nesday of this week.
