The old folks dinner, served at the
NJ. E. church vestry this noon, was
largely attended and proved to be a
very pleasant aff flir.
Henry Stevens, the veteran tourist,
was here to-day shaking hands with
every body, Enthusiastically pocketed
a raft of orders for those famous
Montpelier crackers.
A well-known resident, who by the
way is somewhat of an optimist, was
heard to remark the other day that
the crossing in front of the Dwinell
pharmacy was all right, and should
be called storm crossing, as it could
be taken in easily in case of rain.
Rev. G. N. Kellogg returned last
Saturday from Norwich, Conn, and
occupied the pulpit at the Cong'l
church last Sunday morning. Mrs.
Kellogg and Nellie returned Monday
evening. The outing at Brant Rock
near Boston, and later at Norwich
was a decidedly beneficial one to Miss
Nellie and she returns very much i'm
proved in health.
Our townsman, c. A. Sanders in
forms us that ten years ago Monday,
accompanied by his family, he left
Montpelier for his future home in this
village. They came by team driven
by E. M. Irish, who was then in per-
feet health, while Mr.. Sanders, as he
expresses it, was an invalid, clinging
tenaciously to the brittle thread ot
life. Mr.. Irish and all his family have
taken their departure from this life,
several years ago, while the family Of
Mr.. Sanders are yet surrounded by
many of the richest blessings vouch
safed to mankind.

INDIAN JUGGLERY.

Coronado, in his account of the natives,
met while exploring Quivera, and Java
milo, in his account of these strange
aboriginal people, as well as many other
less illustrious writer's, often refers to the
feats of jugglery practiced by these
aborigines. Many of the marvellous
feats are graphically described by more
recent writers, but the mass of readers
give them little credence.
I have been quite critical in the matter
myself, and have never referred to these
unexplainable antics which tickle the pen
of sensational writer's, and should not
mention them now were still incredu-
lous. During my recent trip to Colum-
bus and Fullerton, Neb., had the
pleasure of an hours talk with the Hon.
James E. North, of Columbus, a gentle
man who has had a wide experience

one of them with derrick about 200
yards from it's mouth. In this neigh
borhood we observed some iron ore in
the bank. At ~ miles above the runs,
a large portion Of the hills, for nearly
"a of mile, has fallen into the river"
They do not appear to have seen it fall,
though it is often said that they did.
There are numerous places above Ne
braska City, which may have been the
scene of this ancient land-slip. Ser
geant Floyd spoke of but one "run" on
this day, which he said they called
Cherry Run. They camped on an
island, not very far up, and the next
morning came to the Weeping Water
after travelling three miles. The pretty

the work of DR.. Biddle. Captain Clark
called it "the water which cry's;"
Sergeant Patrick Gass, the "Weeping
Stream" and our friend Floyd made
"Cry's Greek" out of it. The journal has
no more to say of it than that it
emptied just above cliff of brown clay; !;
and on the next day, the 20th, they
reached the Platte.
1t was more than two years before
they returned. On the 4th of Septem-
ber, 1906, they stopped in their rush
down stream to call upon their COM
rade whom they had left at Sioux City.
.'On ascending the hill we found that
the grave of Floyd had been opened,
and was now half uncovered. We
filled it up, and then continued down. -
The y were hurrying home, making 70
miles and upwards per day, and had
little eye for scenery the only mention
they make of any landmark in this
neighborhood is that they camped on
the night of September 9th "opposite
Baldpated prairie;' perhaps, therefore
at Nebraska City.
