It seems the Hkrai.u was in error
last week in reporting James Ingram

As Mr. tleo. Walradtand his nephew
were starting home from church at
Louisville Sunday night, James and
Adam Ingram jumped on the sleigh
whereupon Mr. Walradt took occas
ion to push them off, this angered the
young men and they went for the oc
cupants of the sleigh in a vigorous
John Sullivan style. It appears the
young bloods were for the time being
victorious, but the end is not yet.
Sheriff Hyers arrested them yesterday.
"Walradt says he is going to see
whether he can drive his own team or
not on the public highway without be
ing set upon and mobbed. It will be
remembered that Adam Ingram is one

The Villas.
The Agnes Wallace Villa company
gave cnlertaiuineuts in this city last

are well spoken of by those who at

crowded house greeted the perform
ance at ihe second entertainment.
Monday evening uh produced the
drum entitled "Me. hette." Tho
parts were well rendered, and each
actor was considered a star in
his or her particular role, but a par
ticular favorite with the audience
was little Lucie. The afterpiece
II. II. 11. Pocahontas -was comical
in the extreme. "Miss Multou" was
reudered the second evening, and so
far as wc have heard, satisfaction
was given the audience present. All
iu all, the combination is a strong
one, and is superior to many who
travel through the couutry.- Lynn,

county court Wednesday morning. J.
E. Morrison for the prosecution and A.
W. Crites for the defense. After some
parleying Adam Ingham plead guilty
and was fined 823 and costs, amount
ing iu all tj about 840. The other
party asked for a jury trial which was
had. The jury, after being out a few
minutes, returned a verdict of guilty.
The court fined the defendant 810,
which with the costs will be over 870.
Not being financially fixed to pay their
fines they were remanded to the coun
ty jail.

There was a notable gathering on
New Year's Day and evening at the
residence of Henry F.ikenbary F.sq..to
celebrate the occasion of their twenty
ilrtt marriage anuiver.try. There
were present over one bund red of the i
friends of this estimable couple, who
took occasion to present to their host
and hostess a costly and beautiful
toilet se and an elegant card receiver
aud boquet holder combined. Tho
toilet set was of exquisitely colored
Bohemian cut glass, mounted in sil
ver, and the card receiver of silver
upon which wus mouuled a cornuco
pia shaped boquet holder of Ilobe
inlan cut glass to match tho toilet set.
The gathering was wholly uuknowu
to Mr. and Mrs. E. until the g icsts
began unceremouiul dropping in
upon them during the afternoon
bringing with them a bouutiful re
past, which wns prepared by the
ladies during the evening.
At eight o'clock in the evening Mr.

center of their parlors, when S. M.
Chapman, on behalf of the gliosis Miid
''he was deputed to Kay to them on
this twenty-first anniversary of their
wedded life, this their beautiful home,
that these beautiful gifts came from
loving friends and neighbors, very
many of whom had shared the pri
vations aud hardships of early Ne
braska life with tl.cm and who new
in the meridian of their lives desired
to assure hcm of their regard and af
fection; that theso gifts were not pre
sented for their intrinsic value or on
accouut of theis beauty, but nimply
as a token from these inanv giients of
their sincere love and aflectiou, as rel
atives, neighbors and tricnus, wiin
the wish that the coming years with
their trials aud responsibilities would
bring to them true happiness and
long life.

speaking of this company before its
arnvnl we said that I hey brous-ht
will them very good press testimo
nials but being so accustomed forfait
ing ilattering prcs comuieuis, we
supposed it was the same old story,
anil that the company might be a very
ordinary one for all il at. We must
uow truly say, after having witnessed
the performance given by them, thul
they houcblly merit all the compli
ments paid them, und that the play,
especially ''Miss Multon." surpasses
by tar any acting ever wituesfed here.
The music given by the bund is ex
ceptionally good. In opera burlesque
Mr. Sam Villa is inimitable us is also
Agnes Villa's acting in the play of
"Miss Multon," us well as her little
daughter Lucie, have won for them
many friends, who will it t all times
welcome them, together with the rest
of the company. It is to be hoped
that this Combination will t isit us
again before the season closet. De
