II is well known to obServant peo
! pie who attended the State Fair a,
Philadelphia that the Main Building
had place fitted up as smoking
room. The following conversation
by two city gentlemen took place, as
to how to treat the girls, the country
cousins, who attended with great ap
petites. The young men, seated with
their "high lows elevated on the
rail of the smoking department.
Jimmy, my boy" said the eldest
Il wil let YOU into the most mani
ficent scheme, if YOU c!eave to It, AM
keep close pan. My country relative
caine down in regiments, and with
the biggest carpet sac-,s anl appe-
tites / ever beLeil / knew that the
girls expected to be fed waen ]
brought en- out here, and when ]
tell you L stuffed seventeen, and
stuffed EN- full, on two dollars and
seventy-two cents, you Will say t.
yourself, old stock. you are drawing
it out stiff but It IS true.
The listener pulled hard at his
cigar, and then asked: How in good
ness did you do it 2
Like a breeze, my boy" said the
other. Pop corn balls and cider.
that's the Bill @; fale; pop corn and
cider. There is something in a five
cent popcorn ball that just knocks a
butter brown country girl clear of
her pins. l knew what the restau-
rants charged, so L would say, Girls,
have popcorn ball ? and the girls
would take it lively. In half hour
they begin to get dry and L chuck
into each a three cent glass of cider.
When the cider grapples with the
pop com it begins to swell, and the
country girls wonder how it is they
don't feel hungry. Iwalk EN- around
until L get the pop corn pretty well
banked, and then L insist on treating
them second time Bill, so far Just
thirteen cents for each girl In about
fifteen minutes 1 come around to q
cider press and give them another
glass of juice. That settles the bust
ness. l can see the button-holes
stetchin' in their dresses, and know
that for sixteen cents | have satisfied
the appetites which every sal of EN-
has brought down here to be whet
ted up.
The listener, who said he expected
ten new female country cousins dur
ing the week, grabbed his friend
warmly by the hand, and with tears
in his eyes invited him to take a glass
of lemonade.

the Atty aud the Sup't respectively,
of the A. & N. Co. arrived i'm the
city Saturday last, on tour Of in
speciion, so TO speak. We had not
the pleasure of meeting Mr.. TOwne.
but understood from Mr. Galley that
the Company were ready to build
the road TO Columbus, ii the proper
aid could be secured. The Compa-
ny wants $35O,OOO in bonds along
the line. 1t is thought that Butler
and Seward will vote all the law
will allow them; the city and pre-
cinct of Crete, Saline county, have
already offered $3S, 900, and IL Platte
county does her proportionate share,
she can secure the road. 1t is un.
derstood that the proposition will
be submitted to Seward county
about the first Of May 10 Butler on
the 10th, and 10 Platte on the 10th.

PERHAPS Antelope Trowbridge
may have sufficient time on his
hands just now to tell his good peo-
pie just what considerations moved
him 10 cast his vote for 5000 ap-
preparation 10 build wing to fu-
ture capitol at the town of Lincoln.
One good reason will do in the alb
sence of the other thirty-nine.
Should Mr.. Trowbridge essay to
open his mouth on this question, his
interested constituency will await
his words with breathless anxiety.
The JOURNAL submits that no future
moment will be SO appropriate for
this purpose. Now is the time for
elucidation, explanation, justifica.
ton or vindication, whichever ii
may be-befcre the particulars oi
the transaction have faded out of Mr..
Trowbridge's memory. As for his
constituents, this consideration will
not affect them, for they will not
be apt to forget it.

A SAD accident occurred at Oak.
dale Monday last, from the criminal
carelessness of the use of fire arms.
A number of men were shooting
with reviewers at mark from the
inside of the stable, out of the door,
at target on the outside. At the
moment Lauren Means fired,
a man by the name Of Frank Nc
Cormick stepped in range OF the
shot on the outside of the door, the
ball taking effect in the mouth and
ranging to the back part Of bis head

24x48 feet, and when finished will
be an ornament to the town.
The Methodists expect soon to
erect q house Of worship, the dimen-
sions of which will be about the
same as the Baptists'
We have felt the necessity for
places Of worship for several years.
In the past the school-house has been
used for that purpose.
A great revival of religion has
taken place here during the past
winter and its effect has been felt
throughout the entire neighborhood,
in q moral and spiritual sense-and
the good that has been wrought, we
hope may continue TO grow.
Several more buildings are ex-
pected to be erected in our town and
country this spring.
We have the past year had bet
ter financial class of people come in
our midst, and more are coming
this spring, as the improvements
will testify. Many who came here
in the pioneer settlement OF. the
county have sold out and fine frame
buildings are taking the place Of
-
tumbled down and dilapidated sod
| structures.
The B. & M. II. r. lands arc being
bought mp rapidly by the new com.
ers and thousands of acres of our
green prairies will be black
ened this summer ready for the re-
ception of grain another year.
Ws would say 10 those who are
looking for good locations and are
anxious to secure good farming
and stock farms, TO hasten here
this spring, for we vouch it that be-
fore autumn every good piece OF
land in our county will be occupied.
The B. & NJ. r. r. Co. are putting
forth their best efforts this spring in
directing the immigrant 10 their
lands in this county; we all know
with what indefatigable zeal they
push their advertising of new
county. More anon. s..4.e
