Mr. Oleson is putting the linisbing touches oa the new Odd Fellows and Masons hall. The carpenter work of the lmildii.? has ht.au done by him, and shows that he uses both conscience and skill in his business. The warm and damp weather which has prevailed in this vicinity for the pant month v hope may uot end in general sickness as it does sometimes in other localities.

A. Fritz, who were delegates to the state league meeting at Hastings laet week, returned very well pleased over the success of their trip. They succeeded in getting a member of the board of directors from Columbus, C. E. Pollock being elected to that office. Another concession to be made is the three game schedule, this arrange ment making it better as far as travel ing expenses are concerned and also from the standpoint of attendance. Henry Sievers of Grand Island was re elected president, but had some opposi tion, which was not pronounced however. The schedule this year will provide for 112 games, the same as last year, and will be arranged by the directors early in the year. The $500 forfeit will be placed by March 1 this year, so that should any of the teams decide to step ont their place could be filled in time. At present the league is the same as last year, including Fremont, Columbus, Seward, Grand Is land, Hastings, Kearney, Bed Clond and Superior. Columbus proving to be the best ball town in the league, was given proper consideration at this meeting, and the report brought home by the delegates will tend to increase the enthu siasm already shown for 1911. Sunday a new time table went into ef fect on the Union Pacific, and one of the important changes was the taking off of two Denver trains, No. 13 and 14. Sev eral minor changes were also made in the time of the evening trains, two of them arriving here a few minutes later. Taking off No. 13, which arrived here about 2 o'clock in the morning, means a change in the mail service, the car for merly carried by that train now being carried by No. 11, which arrives here at 8:56, and the morning dailies do not ar rive here until that hour. On the bran ches the mail is delayed much more than here, as on the Spalding and Albion branches they will not receive their dail ies until afternoon, while on the Norfolk branch they will be delayed twelve hours. No 13, which formerly passed through here at 10:27 p. m., is now sche duled to arrive at 5:21 a. m., about the same time as No. 14 did prior to the change. The following regarding I). Burr Jones, formerly secretary of the Y. M. O. A. of this city, is taken from the Omaha Bee: D. Burr Jones, a former Omaha man and a member of the Thure- ton Rifles, has been elected second lien-1 tenant of the Unmes Battery of Ports month, Va., Jones was a corporal in the Thurston Bines company, which is offi cially known as Company L, First Ne braska, and was at the siege of Manila and in the Philippine campaigns with that company, when it lost sixty-three dead and 228 wounded. Grimes Battery, which Mr. Jones is the second lieuten ant, was formed in 1812, and was one of the famous batteries of the south in the civil war. At present, Mr. Jones is fcsneral secretary of the Young Men's Christian association of Portsmouth. He entered the work in the Philippines. He is also a member of the United Spanish War Veterans. Mrs. Joseph Bothleitner, aged GG years, died at the family home on East Eighth street. Sunday evening after a lingering illness of over two years. Mrs Rothleitner, whose maiden name was Anna Turk, was born in Gruenedorf, Aus tria, June 25, 1844. In 1868 she was married to Joseph Schinsel in her native country, and when he died she came to America and to Kansas in 1886. Here she lived until 1904, when she was marri ed to Mr. Rothleitner on June 25 of that year and has made this city her home since. Mrs. Bothleitner leaves one step daughter, Mrs. Edward Schrott. of Mc Cormick, Kas., who was here about a month ago to visit her mother. Funeral services were held Tuesday morning from the home, and St. Bonaventure's church, and burial was in the Catholic cemetery. Between eix and seven o'clock Tuesday morning the shelving on the west side of the Columbus Candy Kitchen gave way, and with the contents crashed on to the show cases, breaking them and causing considerable damage to the stock. Policeman Nelson passed the store about six o'clock and did not notice anything out of the way, but when Policeman Hagel passed at seven o'clock the shel ves were down. The owners of the Candy Kitchen supposed the shelves were anchored, and amply strong enough to hold the weight placed upon them. As soon as the accident was discovered a force of men were eet to work cleaning it up. and they resumed business with out interruption the same day. A new arrangement of the city de livery in the business district is made necessary by the change of the mail trains on the Union Pacific. Heretofore. No. 11, the night train, brought in all the mail, including the dailies, so they could be delivered early in the morning. Now the mail arrives at S:56, when it is on time, and in order to prevent too long a delay, it has been arranged for carrier Rollin, who supplies this district, to uiake two trips in the forenoon and one in the afternoon. This arrangement may be temporary, however, as it may not meet the requirements. Mrs. 8. C.

Mondsy of this week the Henry Gibb farm, in Monroe township, northwest of Monroe, was sold at referee's sale by referee Gruentber. While the improve ments on this land are not the best, the farm itself is considered one of the best in that locality. Win. Joy, who owns land close by. was the purchaser, and the price was $99.50 per acre, establish ing a new record for land values in that section.

For some time the de predations on the coal cars have been quite numerous, and finally the culprits were landed. The boys have made a practice of stealing the coal and selling it to residents of the city. There was not enough evidence to make a case, the boys were given a warning by County Attorney Hensley and on a promise to not take any more coal were released. Should they continue their depredations they will be brought before the court the first time tbey are apprehended. Big Cut.

SPECIAL PRICES NOW L W. WEAVER t SON HARNESS AND COAL Columbus, Neb. Columbus Corn Growers Associa- tion. The success of the first annuel meet ing of the Columbus Corn Growers' as sociation more than met the expecta tions of its promoters, and the result is thst it will be a permanent institution, and an active canvass is being made for members. It was first intended for merely a local affair, and not many outsiders were ex pected, but Friday a large crowd of stran gers paid the show a visit. The one hundred and four entires were more than was anticipated, and made an ex cellent showing for this vicinity. Programs for both days were given by local men, each of whom bad a specialty I in the agricultural lice. One of the sub jects of mueh importance to the audien ce was "Good Roads," and this wss ably handled by G. W. Phillips, who, while he is not a farmer, fully appreciates the value of good highways.

Wayne Rat, Pastor Improved Fire Apparatus for Columbus. At the meeting of the city council December 2, City Clerk Becker wss structed to correspond with manufac turers of chemical fire apparatus, and have some data regarding it for the meet ing of last Friday evening. In response to the letters several of the companies had representatives present, wbilaotbers sent written communications. The council went over the matter carefully, and should a chemical be purchased, one with a fifty or sixty hone power engine, carrying two chemical tanks. ladders and six or eight hundred feet of hose, would be type purchased. And in connection with taking care of this ma chine, it is understood that the council have an offer from an automobile garage to take care of it at the same rate ohfr,e for automobiles, and furnish a man to take it to fires, he to be on duty any hour of the day or night. Since the purchasing of a chemical engine was brought up, many of the citizens are in favor of the move, realiz ing tLat additional apparatus is needed and in this tbey are seconded by the fire department, who understand the situation better than anyone else. At first the council was in doubt as to whether they could mske the pur chase, but after getting the desired in formation, passed the following resolu tion, which gives the people of Colum bus sn apportunity to decide whether or not the machine shall be purchssed. Whereas, recent fixes and the water lose resulting therefrom have demonstrated the necessity for improved appliances for getting to and putting out fires, now, therefore, Be it resolved by the mayor and coun cil of the city of Columbus, Nebraska, Section I. That the following proposi tion, to-wit: "Shall the mayor and council of the city of Columbus, Nebr aska, have the power to make an appro priation of not to exceed $5,000 00 for the purchase of a combination chemical fire hose wagon, motor propelled, with each power according to such plans and specifications, ss may be adopted by the mayor and council?" be submitted to the legal voters of Columbus, Nebraska. Said proposition shall be submitted by petitions, upon which shall be written or printed, said proposition to be circulat ed among the legal voters, not later than the 20th day or January, 191 1. Section 3. That if a majority of the legal voters of said oity aliail sanction said appropriation, that then and in that case, proposition for the purchase of such fire appartna shall be submit ted by advertisement or otherwise to bidders, and that when the mayor and council have ascertained tin cheapest and best of such apparatus, they may enter into a contract for the purchase thereof, and appropriate the money to pay theiefor in accordance with the proposition so submitted to the voter. Besides disposing of this the council placed an order for three steel cells, to be placed in the old engine room of the water works plant which has been fitted up for a jail. And they have also made arrangements to use a portion of the same building for drying lire hose Hometmng wai uas oeen needed for a long time. James B. Whitcomb and Cbalmer Shannon, successors to Geo.

Columbus Entertains Sheriffs. If the expressiore from the visiting sheriffs were any criterion. Columbus certainly made good in the enteri.i.i ment of the State Sheriffs association held in this city last Thursday and Friday. Thursday afternoon and evening was devoted to registering the new arrivals at the headquarters in Eagle hall, and when the roster wss completed it showed the names of over fifty visitors. President J. M. Dunkle or Grand Island arrived Thursday evening and took charge of the business end of the association. The session was held in Eagle hall and called to order at 2 p. m. and after au address of welcome by County Attorney Hensley, who officiated for Mayor Held, and a response by Deputy Sheriff Foster of Douglss coun ty, the regular order of business was then taken up. Discussions of the various phases of tbe'sberiff's office then followed, and at the conclusion the following officers were elected for 1911. J. M. Dunkel. Grand Island, president; John A. Jones of Nelson, vice president; J. A. Chrinside. Fairbury, secretary treasurer Omaha was the choice of the associatiou for the 1911 meeting the invitation being extend ed by Sheriff Braile or Dnnglas county, and aho the fact that Omaha will enter tain the national meeting of sheriffs at that time, was a point in favor or that city. At the conclusion of the buainess ses sion a banquet was tendered the guests at the Oxford cafe, and President Dun kel officiated as toast master. About two hours was taken up with the ban -quet and speech making, and the sher iff's then accepted sn invitation from Sheriff Lacbnit and Deputy. Burke to at tend a threatre party at the North. Besides the visitors the following ex sheriff's of Platte county were present: Ex-President J. O. Byrnes of the state association. D. C. Kavanaugb, C. J. Car rig, Martin Bloedorn and George Lehman. on is - : Awaiting a purpose It is a very common thing for money to lie idle, await ing a particular purpose. When left at this bank, such funds are made to earn in terest during the waiting period: Columbus State Bank Capital sYSwrplws, t85.000.00 For some time the Commercial club and others interested in the "Good Roads" movement have been in corres pondence with the Department of Agri culture, with the result that Tuesday of this week a Mr. Dodge, a good road ex pert from the department, arrived in the city to confer with the Commercial club regarding the improvements of the high ways. The one stretch of road that particultrly interests this city m the al most two miles between the Loup aad Platte rivers, and also the short stretch between the city and the Loup bridge. It has been the general impression that the bluffs north of the city would be the place to secure the materia), but this does not seem to lie the case. In company with Messrs. G. W. Phillips. G. Friscbholz and R. S. Dickinsos, Mr. Dodge took an automobile trip to the piece in roan in quest ion, and wftile in that locality made tests of the soil in various places. These samples he brought to the city and will test them, and while bis statement as to whether they will answer the purpose or not will not be forthcoming until the testa are completed, ho feels confident thst he bsa all the material close at hand necessary to make a good road through the sand. The approximate cost of euch a road, whre material is convenient, is from be tween HfiOU to $1,000 per mile, and this means a road that will be permanent. a - .. . .. Should this visit result in a first clean road south from this city those who have interested themselves in the matter can feel well repaid for the time spent. . M. C. A. Notes.
