large plate glass windows of Musser &
Smith's store. The chaps seem to In* ig
norant of the boro' ordinance which
strictly prohibits the throwing of any
missiles in the built-up portion of town.

the spirit moves them. Room for re
form there, boys.

Baun Bcuned.— Tlih burn of John
Giove. west of Spring Mills, was de
stiny ed by liic on Tlitilmlay afternoon.
Sept. L;li. Mr. Grove and all lits
household were at the granger picnic at
the time, and the smoke of the burning
building was plainly to be seen froui
the picnic ground on Nittany moun
tain, where the news was telephoned to
Mr.Grove while the barn was in tlauics.
As there was no one at home during

whs set ou lire. The barn was a gi>od
one. One horse, u cow, souie calves, it
boggy and all the contents of the barn*
hay, straw and grain, were burned.
We are told Mr. Grove's insurance

—C. C. Spangler, of Shiekley, Fill
more Co., Neb., in renewing bis sub
scription for the JOURNAL, writes us as
follows : Thus far the weather in this
section of the west lias been very favor
able for all crops* The hot season was
of short duration. Excepting wheat
and barley, which was considerably
damaged by the chintz bug, all the
crops are good. Fruit crop is also good
but not quite as plenty as in the old
eastern states. Fillmore county took
lirst premium in fruit at the recent
state fair. In the line of improvements
this county is progressing very rapidly*
Geneva, our county seat, with about
1600 in habitants, Is erecting biick bus
iness houses this summer that will rep
resent an investment of $150,000. It
will also have the trains of a new rail
road rustling through within the next
thirty days. So vour readers can see
that there is any chance for those wish
ing to do well and no idle moments
for tlifi ambitious and healthy. As re
gards health this county can't lie beat,
llut very little sickness exists owing
to an abundance at pure water and
invigorating air. Will say in conclu
sion that those who want work and
plenty to eat and drink need only come
to Nebraska.
MII.LHEIM'S RENOVATED TOWN
II ALL.— The school board who has the
control of the town hall in this place
have taken hold of a work that will
giye tis a public hall of which we need
not be ashamed. Thus far the hall was
unfit for any public gatherings. The
ceiling which was too low is being torn
ont and raised about five feet, while
heavy iron rods will be extended from
wall to wall to prevent their bulging!
thus making the building safer and
more substantial. A new stage will be
erected at the northern end of the hall
with uprights to admit of the fastening
of curtains and sceneries. The seats
will be repaired and so arranged that
there will be three aisles. Chimneys
will be built and the old stoves and ug
ly stove pipes will be done away with.
The hall will lie repapered and repaint
ed and everything will be put in a pre
sentable and neat shape. The board is
pushing the work as rapidly as possible
and expect to have the hall ready for
business by next week.
We think the change of the hall's
condition is of sufficient importance to
our town people to celebrate the com
pletion of the work by a rededication,
which might be in the form of a public
entertainment consisting of suitable ad
dresses music, &c. &. The suggestion
is submitted for the consideration of
the controlling board.
