of a beautiful gold watch, and the boys
present gave him an elegant gold chain,

ed to a bountiful supper, in which they

Tuts republican ticket nominated las
Saturday is one that in the opinion of all
fair minded republicans should win.
The ticket is personally strong and ge
ographically nothing can be urged
against it. I). A. Campbell, the nominee
for treasurer, is interested in Plattsmauth
city and can justly be charged against
us. Calvin Russell the nominee "for
county judge docs not own a dollars
worth of property in this city but owns
a nice home near Weeping Water to which
point lie will remove when lie ceases to
fill his present office. H. J. Streight, no
minee for clerk of the district court, is
interested both in Wabash and South
Bend, lie having resided at the latter
place for several years. Mr. Critchfield
nominee for county clerk, has for years
deen a resident of Mt. Pleasant precinct.
W. II. Pool, nominee for register of deeds,
resides at Eknwood. Co. Supt. Spink
has never lived in Plattsmouth and we
believe conies from South Bend precinct.
A. Ma'lole, county surveyor, is from
Weeping Water. For the office of cor
oner Henry Bceck is a resident of this
city. For county commissioner, Geo.
Young of Center Valley receved the
nomination, thus showing conclusively
that a man who wishes to scratch his
ticket must find a better reason than the
assertion thfft the ticket is made up from
one locality.

THE SENCERFEST.
Feast and Parade a Complete
Success.
Last evening was the opening
evening of the first annual Biengerfest
of the Nebraska s;ingerbund.
The friengerbund, as we understand it,
is a German musical society ot wide re
pute. Here in Nebraska it is composed
of the most talented German musicians
in the state, and when seen in a body at
the banquet last n:ght they presenteded
a highly refined and intelligent appcar
nce and are worthy citizens.
The. visiting societies of the Sanger
bund, are from Omaha, Lincoln, Seward,
Columbus, Grand Island, Crete, Nebraska
City. Besides these there are representa
tive members of the society present from
neighboring states.
The evening opened with the grand
torchlight procession. The line of march
was from lower Maine, up to 9th st., on
9th to Chicago avenue, down the avenue
to 7th, on 7th to Main and down Main
to 3rd, where the procession broke up
and the various home associations repair
ed to their headquarters, and the mem
bers of the Fnengcrbund were gathered
together with the invited guests, and
taken to Fitzgerald's hall.
The procession was lead by several of
the bicycle boys with arms on their
wheels, on which were lanterns, and was
made up and was as follows:
Lincoln band, 18 pieces; Germania
Mirnuerchor, 12 singers, Lincoln; Man
nerchor, Columbus, 14; Tentouia, M;en
nerchor, Seward, 8; Omaha band; Mien
ncrchor, Omaha; Liederkranz, Nebraska
City, 15; Liederkranz, Grand Island, 12;
Crete, 8; B. vfc M. Band. Plattsmouth;
mayor and city council, Glee Club, Lied
erkranz, Turner society, K. of L. and G.
A. R. with the militia band, of Platts
mouth. There were about 500 men in
the procession, which was followed up by
the gun-bout, from which salutes and
Roman candles were constantly fired.
J. V. Weckbaeh was grand marshal of
the evening.
Fitzgerald's hall was handsomely dec
orated, and three tables, the length of the
hall, were well covered with eatables of
every description. When the Samger
bund members and guests arrived here
they were seated at the tables and waited
on by the German ladies of Plattsmouth,
by whose hands the feast was prepared,
supper ended at 10 o'clock and the or
ganization wTas called to order, and a
president and fox major, for the evening,
were elected, then by motion and vote
the various branches of the society and
visiting societies were called, and in re
sponse to the call they would repair to
the stage and render sonic favorite song.
The Omaha band played some pieces
which were prouounced by those present
as the finest ever played in Plattsmouth.
The B. & M. band was called, and re
sponded with music. to
which there was a hearty encore
The Plattsmouth glee club favored the
audience with some of their beautiful
singing in response to calls and encores.
Thus the members of the society spent
the first evening in feasting and music,
together with their guests. To-night a
grand concert will be given at the opera
house, for which the participants have
been practicing all day, and it promises
to be an entertainment of high merit.
HONOR TO THE MAYOR.
He
is Serenaded .by the Lincoln
Band and Msennerchor and

Speech.
This noon Mayor Simpson was called
from his residence by music in the front
thereof. On issuing from his place of
habitation he beheld the Lincoln band of
18 piec'. s and the Lincoln Germania Mau
nerchor in the highway making sweet
music in honor of him. lie stood quietly
by till the music ceased; then mounting
a pile of street railway tics he lifted up
his voice and proclaimed aloud his thanks
and gratefulness for the honor done him.
The uKunnerchor responded with a verse
of German song and the band played
another selection, during which Mrs
Simpson appeared on the balcony abovt
and waved her handkerchief in recogni
tion of their respects.
