Three soldiers got off a train
Sunday night, and at Henry Hew-
tits eating-house stole napkin and
a pair Of gloves. AT III 30 the night
watchman, John Mcmahon, found
them near Longshore's windmill
and took them in. There being no
probability that the theft could be
proved, they were told to 60.
Lutte North recently received a
letter from Yves. Rhone, on the
North rancho, descriptive of a recent
bout with the Indians. 1t is excit-
ing, ,and at the same time laughable TO
read WEISS description of their little
army, the doings of the left flank,
and how the brave boys on horses
made the best half-mile on record TO
get away from a posse Of Indians
on foot.
"A few days since, the Omaha
papers mentioned the fact that one
j. T.. Henry had been brought down
from Fremont by the U. S. Marshal,
on the charge of counterfeiting.
This is, of course, not j. G. Henry
of the firm of Henry & Bro. and son
of A. Henry of this city, but per-
son of exactly the same name but of
very bad character, and who has re-
sided near and in Fremont for the
past eight or ten years.
In accordance with the request
of the Woman's National Christian
Temperance Union, that the month
of January should be observed as a
time for special prayer and effort in
the temperance cause, the Union of
Columbus will hold gospel tenn
perance meeting on each Sabbath
afternoon of the month at 3 o'clock.
The meeting next Sabbath will be
held in the Presbyterian church.
The meetings are open to all.
WIN. Stevens says that TO one Of
his animals that was attacked the
other day by dry murrain he gave a
mixture of laudanum one-half
ounce, Perry Davis's pain-killer
one half ounce and linseed oil one
pint. To full-grown animal he
would give twice that amount. The
dose should be repeated until the
pain ceases, and a passage Of the
bowels is secured. The remedy was
effective in this instance, and he be-
lieves would be in most cases.

&C. Z. Morse has begun the erec-
ticn of a new building adjoining the
Tattersall on the south, and to be

TO be Of frame 2SX60 it., and similar
in appearance to the Tattersall. 1t
