Files of The Journal September 5. 1877.
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.

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.

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.

Firemen's Day.
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

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.
The program, as arranged, was carried
out, the address by August Wagner be

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. They are enroute
home to Knoxville after an extended
trip in the west. Mr. Jarvia is profes
sor of engineering in the University of
Tennessee at Knoxville, and Mrs. Jarvia
was formerly Miss Florence Elliott, a
neice of II. S. Elliott.
