making garden this warm weather.
Several of our citizens went to Ne
braska City last Thursday night to
see and hear the celebrated violinist,
Ole Bull.
The farming community mere
abOuts are actively engaged prepar-
ing for the seasons work.
Proper attention paid to the law in
reference to stock running ut large,
would be much more agreeable TO
community generally, and to several
individuals that we know of, in par
ticular.
Our new district school eOuse is
nearly finished.
John w. Middleton was In town
the past week buying hides and pelts.
John is always prepared to pay the
highest prices for this kind of truck.
The Spring term of the State Nor
nal School commenced last Thurs
day with a fall compliment of stu
dents. We notice nearly all the stu
dents here that attended the last
term, besides host of new ones from
other States. This institution seems
to be very popular with those that
seek to obtain a thorough education.
Some few of our citizens are dispos-
ed to find fault with the authorities
for putting up estray hogs, and other
stock. This may be disagreeable to
the owners of such stray stock, but it
is unlawful for them to run ut large,
and the only remedy the grumblers
have is to get the law repealed. 1t Is
certainly very foolish to find fault
with any body for enforcing the laws
of the land.
Peru is blessed with a baead and
milk wagon that makes daily trips
through the town and distributes hot
bread, cakes and pies, and good fresh
milk. This institution should be
patronized.
Charley Culbertson has his cage up
and enclosed, and will soon have it
ready for occupancy by the bird.
Mr.. Joy the new proprietor of the
Peru ferry, is having q large new
boat buiIt, large enough and with
power enough to accommodate the
increasing travel at this point.
Money is very scarce in this market
owing to the postpOnement of the
Mercy Hospital Lottery. Just wait
until the 30th of May, and Peru will
have money to sell, so they say.
We would advise any one having
Early Rose potatoes, to bring them to
Peru, as the demand is good here and
the supply very small. Now is the
time to get price for your early seed
Potatoes.
The Rev. Dean, who has been To-
boring with the people of Peru for
lieve-what he said-and be baptized,
has shaken the dust from his sandals
and departed thence. The elder took
occasion to inform his congregation
on last Friday night, that the devil
was in Peru. Although like the far.
mers boys they couldn't find :he
hole where he got in at, he was Ger.
tainly here, and it was no use tC
preach TO q community that had 8
devil in il. The old Apostles, we are
told, used to cast out devils. Why
did not the Elder try his hand at it
The Rev. Elder Dean may learn in
the course Of his life, that the way tC
get up q revival of religion, is not tC
go into a town and go to preaching
about the wickedness of Tom Paine
Thomas Jefferson and other revOlU-
tionary patriots. II might in Egypt
but wOn't.pan in Peru.

J. b. Hoover Of Nemaha City, Was
in town on Monday last. We are
I glad to see our Nemaha City friends
get up here occasionally, as it will DC
them good to see a live town once in
wEils.
