GOUNGIL BLUFFS, ADDITIONAL LOCAL NEWS, HELPING HIMSELF, A Burglar Who Seems Always Around And Yot Hard to Cateh, A number of burglaries have been committed here of late, and Christmas night added at least two more to the rec ord. Asnearly as can be judged from the meagre traces which are left behind, the work seems to be that of one man, whose description is in possession of the officers, and yet who seems to succeed in keeping well out of their way. On Christmas night the house of Mr, Henry Van Brunt, corner of Willow av- enue and Fourth street, was entered, Mr. and Mrs. Van Brunt had just re turned from a visit with frionds, and she stood waiting at the Willow avenue entrance while he went around to the front door to unlock it. She noticed that the door leading into the dining room was open, and thinking that the servant had probably returned, and was inside, wnlkm‘f into the room and called to her. Instead of getting a response she was startled by the form of a man who pushed her oneside, while he rushed by her and out of doors, making good his escape. Mrs, Van Brunt was so badly frightened as to cause great nervous pros- tration. Examination of the house showed that the burglar had searched it pretty thoroughly, and had taken away a gold watch and chain, a necklace and seven rings, three of which were small ones. Yesterday morning it was discovered that during the night the residence of Captain. O. M. Brown, No, 105, Seventh street, hiad been visited by burglars, who had ransacked the house pretty thorough- ly. A pair of earrings and some other jowelry was taken, also a pocket prayer- book, which the thief evidently mistook for something of more value and interest to him, and on getting outside and learn- ing its nature he had dropped it in the yard. — - “Don't Hurry, Gentle nen," Said a man on his way to bo hanged, *‘there’ll be no fun till T get there.” We say to the dyspeptic, nervous, and debilitatod, don’t hur- ry thoughtlessly for some'remedy of doubtful merit, uncertain of relief, when you can get at the druggists for ono doliar Burdock Blood M- ters almost sure to cure and certain to benefit, e —— CITY COUNCIL, Matters of City ment Plarned.

Mottaz to attend to the two city build- ings, to perform the duties of city jailor, and to attend to the city scales. Re- ferred. The mayor was allowed office rent at the rate of two hundred dollars a year, he having heretofore been obliged to furnish his own office room. The question of a new fire alarm was discussed and_referred to the fire and finance committees to report at the next meeting, In the mean time some of the fire alarm boxes are to be placed inside of public buildings, it being thought that they would work all right when properly pro- tected from out door weather. The same committees were instructed to consider plans far distributing the fire apparatvs in different parts of the city, 8o as to give better protection to property. Aleo the abvisability of puttinz up a hose cart house on south Main street. An ordinance was passed raising the grade of the east side of Bluff street, from Fifth avenue to Story street, two foet higher than the west side. An ordinance was passed lowering the grade at the intersection of the west side of Eighth street with Third and Fourth avenues. It was decided to advertise for bids for paving Broadway from Stutsman street to Twelfth street; also Main street from the creek to Sixteenth avenue, and all of Oakland avenue., Ad- journed. —— - Horsford's Acid Phosphate.

Nebraska Notes, The Massachusetta legislature has passed a law giving a bounty on sorghum or sugar beots raised for the manufacture of sugar, A Farmers' institute will be held at the court house in Tecumseh, commenc- ing on the 2d of January, 1884, and con- tinuing four days, 1f mon are going to adopt now ideas in farming, they want to use a little com- mon sense, and exercise a little fore- thought to commence with, or they may discard new ideas and fall back into old channels, lowa cattle foodors are skirmishing through the state buying corn wherover 1t oan bo had the cheapest for the pur- poss of hipping into Towa to fatten thoir igh grados on. This is true of Central City, Arlington, Columbus and other towns, 2 The McCook Tribune says the rango cattle on the Frenchman and Stinking Water_enter the winter months fat and in good condition, The stockmen aro all prepared with feed for bad weather. Cat- tlo that have been driven in from the east are not looking first rate. Crop of calves good average. The Howard Journal says corn eribs are to be seen going up in all parts of town and county, and_they are no little 0x12 concorns either, but are such as will hold from 5,000 to 15,000 bushels of corn, and nearly overy farmer needs a crib of this_capacity in_order to hold his corn for fair prico, which will certainly come when corn is in good marketable ~condi- tion, Mr. James Graham informs the North Bond Flail that sinco Septembor, 1882, hehas sold ftifty-three hous that have brought him in net cash $095. Ho brought in_seventoen a wook ago that weighed 6,610 pounds, which, at $4.90 per hundred, netted him £323.60. M. Graham is afarmer who believesina home market for his corn, and ho says it always pays to feed it to hogs. The farmer who has a supply of roots on hand with which to_feed his stock, is nov reaping o roward of oo manago- ment. Roots fed at this season not only serve to incrense tho flow of milk and givo color_and flavor to the butter from fresh milch cows, but cleanse the blood, tone up the system, and place all classes of cattlo in a generally healthy condition. Hog cholora prevails in some localitics in Washington county. The best pre- ventative is to keep hogs not infected en- tirely away from infacted stock. It is conveyed by contact, and so sure as droves are n{luwed to mix the infection will spread through whole neighborhoods. Therefore all dead hogs should be buried, old pens abandoned, and every farmer FUR Furn NO STAIRS TO CLIMB IS AT DEWEY & STONE'S They always have the largest and best stock.

A mild-looking importation from the British isles found his way to the post- ofice last evening, nm?. after wading through the streams of water which serv- od as a moat to that building, reached one of the windows in safety. He held a big package of Christmas cards up for in- spection, and the clerk said it would take 40 cents to carry it across the Atlantic, The applicant produced the money, and the window-man made a picture-frame round the bundle with twenty stamps, each of the denomination of 2 cents, and then said: “‘Five cents more, please.” ‘‘How's that!" demanded the Brit- isher. ‘It weighs heavier now the stamps are on,” was the explanation. ““Why the e expostulated the vietim, “why the doose didn't you put ono 40-cent stamp on or two of 20 cents. You are a geniusi” “‘Hurry up with that nickel,” roured the official, *‘I want to go tosleep. What did you como 80 lato for, anyway? All the stamps are locked up in the safe at this hour, and we've only got 2's.” The victim fumbled in his pocket and produced a trade dollar, and asked for the change. *‘Don't take 'em,” shouted the now in- furiated window gentleman. Once more the victim fumbled and this time fished up a $2 50 gold piece. ““Tha 's too worn. That’s too light,” yelled the postoflice clerk, dancing about with rage. There was a repetition of the pocket investigation, and the bewildered Brit- isher took one by one from his coat five should keep his stock strictly at home, sick or well. The corn crop of Webster county, says the Red Cloud Chief, is by no means a small one. *‘Every day we notice many loads of corn passing on the streets, and never saw better developed and larger ears of corn than this year. While other counties complain of shortage and shrink- agein the crop this year, the farmers have an abundance of the new crop, while we know of many farmers that have stacked in cribs many “thousand bushels of last year's producing.” E. H. Barnard of Dodge county, is going into the stock business quite ex- tensively, His farm is only six miles from Fremont and contains 1,000 acres. Sheds for 300 head of stock are being built. Mr. B. expects to go into the dairying business on an extensive scale and is now furnishing the Fremont creamery with milk from forty cows, and next spring the products of one hundred head will go to the creamery. The ma- jority of these are grade shorthorn with fow Ayreshircs and Jerseys—all of them good milking strains. The North Bend Flail urges faymers to pay more attention to sowing tame grasses and planting forest and fruit trees. The old cry that the grasses will not flourish in Nebrgska has been long since silenced, and hua premiums over the boasted fruit coun- tries of the world. Let overy farmer plant groves and stud his streets with trees; let him plant orchurds, vineyards and gardens; let him sced pastures, meadows and lawns, and when planted and seeded cultivate and protect, and he can trust Nebraska soil and climata for the fruit and incrense.
