Last week TIE JOURNAL had . per-
sonal mention Of = lady returning home,
the previous Sunday, which vss . mis-
take. She would have come home but
for the storm preventing her. It is not
very often We have mistakes but they
viii happen. However Ne object to
every other paper in the county making
the same blundef. Four other county
papers repeated our item nearly word
for word.
Thomas Flynn's team took a very
sudden notion to run away Monday,
when he left them on the scales at Way
L Fairchild's while he stepped in a
moment to talk to Fairchild. It seemed
hardly no time at all until they had
come up against the railing at Bucher's
saloon, and unjointed it at the corner,
besides breaking one Of the hitching
posts square OF at the ground. Natur-
ally enough, one Of the horses was sore,
and some Of the harness broke.
And now it is currently reported
and we hope the report is thoroughly
reliabie-that the Cedar Rapids branch
road from Columbus is to be re-ftted
With new steel rails, the kind used on all
first class roads It is said that the
rough, iron-rail track is all that has kept
Engineer Riley from cutting . miles
minute clip, and now that this obstacle
10 removed, We will await q new, time
schedule for our local passenger.-Cedar
Rapids Outlook.
The local public school was closed
last Friday on account of q mild scarlet
fever epidemic. Miss Laura Pugh, and
the four year old son Of Mr.. and Mrs. II.
n. Zingg and the children Of Mra Menice
we're the victims of the disease. All
cases are now about well, the disease
being 90 mild, in the majority OF cases,
- to be hardly recognizable. The pub
lie school will open again next Monday
unless other cases break out before then.
Platte Center Signal
There Is . peculiar case reported
from Grand Island. James Haldeman,
father Of Dr.. F. D. Haldeman Of this
place, was elected to the Office Of assessor
in Harrison township, but he died before
the voting commenced. The question
then naturally arose. should the county
clerk issue the certificate Of election to
the dead man or to the man receiving
the next highest number of votes. The
friends Of the opposition claim that as
there was no such q man a the one
named a the successful candidate the
certificate should be issued to the man
Who had les votes but more existence.
We believe that the certificate was is-
sued to the dead man.-Ord Quiz.
Lyle Himebsugh, about 7 years old,
fell Saturday in Pope's elevator . dis
tance Of about IS feet striking on the
floor in one Of the bina He remained
unconscious for about a houn. It il
now thought he will soon b all right.
It seems miraculous that he was not
killed instantly = The fast mail No. 2,

60 miles IN hour when it struck the drift.
