Things are lively arountl Ihe Sher- urooJ corner these days. We Lear rumor to-day of the organ ization of a base ball club win I'latts- mouth. The attention of Knight Templars ia called to the notice published elsewhere in this issue. The Perkins House was chock full last night every bed and room being taken and occupied. What is being done toward the pro per observance of Decoration Day in Tlattsmouth ? It's settled, summer has come number of straw hats have made their appearance. Flies and mosquito are the next thin? in order. Hock Bluffs has a boom in planting trees, making garden, building fence, erecting barns and trimming up trees and shrubs. Our worthy and efficient express agent, John Simpson, unloaded a new Hall safe today at his office, sent by tbe American and Wells & Fargo Ex press companies. On the meadows throughout the county, in too many instances, are to be seen the sulky rake and mower. just where the team was unhitched from them when the having season ended. The soaking rain cf last nizht pro duced a freshness which today is exhil- erating. It was just the thing need ed, and is worth more to the country generally, just now, than money. The transcript of the testimony in the license case will cover 21 pages each of legal cap, hence it will be some day; before they can all be prepared for hear ing in the District court. Now is heard in the fields the con tinuous click of check rower, as the farmer puts the corn in the ground, In every field can be seen the busy plowman, cheered by the song of the merry lark, whose music makes the fields glad. Ye festive knights of the beer mug of this city enjoyed a holiday on y ester day, and were good customers at the billiard halls. The prospects are that their vacation may last for several days in the meantime Bock Beer languisheth in the ice chest. Cedar Creek, though small, is surely a lively place. II. Inhelder has finally secured a home, having purchased the cozy residence of Frank Franzen Jamas Smalley has left for Ulyi3es, Butler county, where he proposes to put in his days of widowhood. The sale of corn planters and farm ma chinery at this point is immense. The Mayor has ordered, and Chief Murphy has notified all citizens to clean up, and keep cletn, the alleys, etc. They mean business, and to avoid trouble the work of renovation had better be begun at once. Our citizens should have pride in the cleanliness and beauty of our city that would re quire no such notice. Let us get clean and keep clean. Mr. H. E. Slack, the gentlemanly proprietor of the skating rink, has de cided to give a prize skate on Saturday evening, May 26th, at which time the following prizes will be awarded: To the best lady skater, first prize, a silver tea cup and saucer; second prize, a gold lined silver napkin ring. To tbe best; gentleman skater, a gold lined silver mug. The prizes are now at Carruth's jewelry store, where they may seen. Xotices have been sent oat request ing the anti-monopolists to hold con ventions in their respective counties, on June 13th, to select delegates to at tend conventions tc be held June 13th, at Lincoln, in the first congressional district, at Hastings, in tbe second, , and at Columbus, in the third ; for the purpose of electing four delegates from each congressional district to at tend the national convention at Chica go, on July 4th. The time draws nigh to, anti,M then look out for the " deal." A leading eastern merchant is quot ed as making tbe statement that "from what I can judge business is increas ing. We are shipping a great deal of goods. We have received very large orders from all western and north western points, and money seems very plentiful there. The failures we have beard of are simply bagatelles when we consider the very large business that Is being done. I never knew the country in a more prosperous condi tio, or business with a more promis ing outlook." The west never had - M'lrprospectif for a yearjpfplenty A COMMUNICATION. A Citizen on tbe Slocninb Law. Mh. Editor: As a license law, we believe the Slocurub license law to be one of the best in the United States. And all the people of Plattsmouth are desir ing is that the provisions of tbis law be complied with. It is therefore the ob ject of the meeting tonight at the M. E. church to simply provide ways and means for the enforcemant of this law. You will observe that a little has already been accomplished, and that, too, under the most trying circumstances. We have no doubt but that a majority of the city council are in favor ot granting license, but we did expect that when we bronght in a witness, a minor, to whom it is be lieved, Mr. Fred Goossold whiskey, that the council would give us a respectful heariag. But instead thereof they thea and there, with the witness on the stand, ever the head of Mayor Smith,dismissed the case without a hearing. Is it any wonder that we are compelled to take these cases into the district court or for ever drop the matter? But let it be re membered this cause will not thus drowu it may be defeated for a time, justice may be trampled on for a season, but there is a power behind the throne that will be felt, and men who have been placed in position by the influence of the temperaace people, of whom better things were and ought to have been ex pected will please remember that this thing will not be soon forgotten. Now, therefore, let all law-loving people, whether they arc temperance men or not, (in the sense of prohibition) come out to the meeting tonight and let us enter upen this work with a purpose anil will. Citizen, DISTRICT COURT. The Trial, Collins vs. The City of Plattsmouth. In the District Court to-day, the case of Mrs. Collins against the City of Plattsmouth for damages received by falling in an unprotected cellar, is on trial, and occupying the attention of the court. It will be remembered that at the time of the building of the Drew Weckbach block, that one dark and rainy night as Mrs. Collins was passing down by the excavation for the cellar for the building, that she fell in the pit sustaining a broken limb and other in juries from the fall. Shortly after the occurrence action for damages was commenced, alleging criminal negli gence on the part of the city, in not having the excavation sufficiently pro tected and guarded. The case is one of much interest, to not only the city but citizens generally, as it involves many interesting points of law, and will show to what extent the city is responsible for poorly protected exca vation, and indirectly the parties do ing the work. The case is prosecuted by Beeson and Strode, with J. L. Web ster and M. A. nartigan for the de fense. The Wilberforce Concert. Cn account of the inclemency ot the weather, a small audience greeted the Wilberforce concert company last even ing. The entertainment was one worthy a full house. The programme embraced a' collection of music of a high order, which was artistically rendered. The solo "Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep," by Mr. Coleman, was one of the best numbers on the programme, as was also the duett by Mr. and Mrs. Stewart Miss Brown as an elocutionist, is the peer of any on the American stage, and the selections rendered last evening fully displayed her powers, and per ception of elocution as an art. The troupe is an excellent one throughout, and should they again visit Platts mouth, we bespeak for them the pa tronage their entertainment merits. The Journal lias Kept Aloof. The Journal man says he has kept aloof from tbe temperance question, and that he has not been consulted on either side. He is positive that he has not in stigated the prosecution of applicants for license. The mere assertion that he did so, causes the editor to heave fre quent sighs, worth from three to five dollars each, and he rushes his favor through a three stick article with a bhj maroon taste under his tongue, which winds up with the statement that if he is boycotted somebody will be mis taken. Sherman should rest easy, nobody who has any gumption will ; so far forget themselves as to accuse him of being squarely on any subject where there is any danger of being boycotted. Another Move Westward. Mr. John Q. Adams, who has long been a resident of this county, and who has built himself up a very pleas ant home in Cass county, leaves next week, with some four to five hundred head of cattle, to open a stock range on a tributary of the Republican river in Dundy county. Mr. Adams keeps his Cass county place, of course, and will leave his family here, at least for the present. Mr. Adams, speaks from experience, when he says, that Cass county, and eastern Nebraska, is the garden of the west, and that no one need look for a more delightful climate in which to make for himself a home.

A good many experiments haye been made on seed corn about getting it to grow this spring. Corn that stood out in the field is thought to be good, and will probably all come. That which has been cribbed up all winter, gath ered in the fall, is found not to be good for seed. There will be an abundance of fruit bloom; more than usual this year. A pair of twin colts on the farm of Mr. J. B. Moore created considerable curiosity among horse owners some time ago. One of them was very small and the other very large. They boh died at the age of 24 hours. Considerable complaint has been made quite recently to the Reporter about spurring up somebody in regard to our mail matter, our county news papers not reaching our postoffice un til nearly a week old. The papers printed at Plattsmouth were not re ceived here at all last week from some cause. The Omaha Bee failed to come, too. Our newspapers should come down in Friday's mail. If they don't come then, they have to lay over uuti Monday ; and then who wants to read a naoer after it is a week old or so We think the Herald and Journa, are printed on Thursday, and the Bee on Wednesday. Somebody is to blame for if they are put in the mail they will surely come promptly and with out delay direst to our office. Now, Mr. Herald, you will probably think that it may not be your business to look after the other papers, but you can look after your own and see where the trouble is and save your corres pondent of writing this item in every letter we send to the Herald. R. R. Nickles is contemplating building a brick house tho coming summer. The brick will be made at Rock Bluffs by Mr.W. Groves, also Mr Wm. Nickles think some about putting up a frame dwelling. A gentleman from Missouri, and re lated to Mr. Oldham's folks, is making a short stay in our locality. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Shera, of Rock Bluffs, made a drive out into our neighborhood on Sunday. Our Sunday school is progressing with good success with a lady superin tendent at the head. The Sabbath school organ made its appearance at the school house again on Sunday, having been absent nearly all winter. A few attended the quarterly meet ing on Sunday held at Union. Eddie Young has joined the Bock Bluffs band, and in order to practice with the R. B. boys, he goes down three evenings during the week. Ed die makes the air fairly ring with hi3 "tooting" all around here nearly every night, and seems to be gaining fast on the tooting horn. Reporter. The Journal shows its teeth because we complimented it on its patent out 6ide. Thi3 is right, but when we see enterprise we cannot help commending it. Had we said anything untruthful, it would be different. We publish tho latest dispatches, and lots of them, from all parts of the world, and when our afternoon dispatches come along as they will very shortly, our readers 6hall have the cream of the news with out having to wade through an ocean of dead, stale matter, and then none of the Journal readers will have any ex' cuse to read the Omaha Herald, which we think is a pretty good newspaper all the same. The "Black Hills," a good sized stern wheel s'.eamer, laden with government supplies, passed up the river this after noon about two o'clock. It was heavily loaded and doubtless some of the freight will have to be discharged, before Bis - mark, the destination, is reached. Sev eral old timers gathered on the river bank to watch her, and talked over the bygone days whan regular trips were made, and this was one of the important stopping points, and corn was $2 a bush el. The new chief of police is proving himself just as all expected, the right man in the right place. A clearing out of a number of offenders and a general avoidance of the city by thugs and thieves is already noticeable, and the police force has some system in its work. The night men now under in structions from the chief, have regu lar beats, and the city is safely guard ed night and day. After Lincoln bad spread herself yesterday in the laying of the corner stone of a new Masonic temple, the rain of last night washed out about 30 feet of the wall, so that it is a com plete ruin. Even pure cold water? Messrs. Lehnhoff & Bons hrve a large kiln of brick ready for burning. which are already contracted for by Mr. Sherwood for his new business house on Main street. The law and order loving citizcnB'who desire to see a rigid enforcement of t!e Slocumb license law, and carry out all its provisions against the offenders thereof, will meet at the Methodist church to night to organize for the work. Attention ia railed to J. M. Roberts mammoth ad on our Crt page, which appeared as well in our yesterday's edi tion. Mr. Roberts is bound to do hia share in making a lively trade iu the city, and he recognizes the value of printer's ink, and the plac to put hii work to advantage. The Workingmen's Benevolent and Relief Society f Plattsmouth, are hav ing five hundred copies of the Constitu tion and By-Laws printed this week, and The Herald is glad to learn that the society i3 both prosperous and increas ing in numbers. Their object 19 wholly for mutual aid in case of sickness or death among their members, and is every way a worthy one. SPECIAL NOTICES.
