Twenty-five dollars and costs was
the penalty imosed upon Edward

which he engaged with Frank Sul
livan at Platte Center on July 29.
Sullivan had his right eye injured
during the mill, and he brought action
against Iliggins on the charge of as
sault with intent todogreat bodiiy in
jury. This would require that the de
fendant be bound over to the district
court, but Saturday forenoon, after
examining a dozen or more witnesses
the county court found no just cause
to hold him to the district court. The
testimony of several witnesses show
ed that Sullivan was really the ag
gressor, and Iliggins claimed that his
fight was in self defence. When the
case was dismissed by the court a new
petition was immediately filed charg
ing assault and battery, to which Mr.
Iliggins pleaded guilty and was assess
ed the fine of twenty-five dollars and
costs which he paid.

The members of the Order of Owls
and their families and a few friends
will journey to Stevens' lake Sunday

ialize very strongly. That is, the
the boys played alright, but the day J
was so cool that there was very few
sjectators. A game has been called
or September 10.
Columbus has known good things
before, but probably no musical event
in the history of the city has ever
been looked forward to with as much
expectation and eagerness as the com
ing of the Royal Italian Guards Band.
There is probably no band organiza
tion in Amreica today that contains so
many really musical artists as this
band. There are twenty-three musi
cians, and they are under the personal
direction of Signor Vito Lacerenzo.
The announcement of the leadership
along should be sufficient to fill the
North Opera House as it has never
been filled before. Lacerenzo is an
idealist in music. He does not be
lieve in the music that appeals to the
ear only to arouse the passion for the
moment and then be forgotten. He
believes in harmony and sweet melody
that gives quiet and refreshment to
tired souls, that pictures happy
dreams and strengthens purpose. He
believes in a kind of music that
stimulates one to high thoughts and
desire for achievement of good things.
In other words he plays only the
world's greatest music, such as the
grand seiections from "Faust," "II
Trovatore" and "Martha", the cele
brated "Sextette from Luca, "the
"Quintette from Rigoletto," the
"Star Song from Tanhauser," the
overtures from "Wiliam Tell", and
Orpheon, " the " Poet And Peasant, ' '
the Pilgrim's Chorus," "Lapholma,"
"the Medley of 1861," and other na
tional airs. Some of his own best
compositions are interperted through
out the progam. The members of the
band are, every one of them, great
artists. This accounts for their ex
traordnary value, their equisite shad
ings and superb interpretations. Four
of the men are graduates of the Con
servatory of Naples after fourteen
years of study there. A number of
them are from Royal conservatories
requiring ten and twelve year's study
there in before graduation. All are
conservatory graduates, several having
held high positions as instructors.
This magnificent band is coming to
Columbus for two performances on
Thursday, August 31. Any one who
missing to hear them will miss the
greatest musical that ever offered
them. The children will be admitted
in the afternoon for 25 cents. The
general admission are, afternoon, 35,
50, and 75 cents. Evening, 50, 75,
and $1.00 Seats are going fast
Don't wait until the last minute; you
may be late. ,

bers. It will be remembered that Mr.
Dibble tendered his resigination to
the local Congregational church some
time ago, to be effective at any time
within one year, and as he has seen
this opportunity, he has decided to
take it. The many frends of the fam
ily in Columbus will regret to see
them leave here, and every one will
wish them well in their new home.
