Programme.
The Presbyterian Church Choir Social
to Le held this evening, at ltock
wood Hall, will be mainly devoted to
a good social time and the refresh
ment tables. The members of the
choir have selected the following im
promptu programme to open the even
ing and make their guests feel at home.
Doxology By the choir.
Duett "I would that my love"
Mrs. Wise and Miss Pollock.
Duett Cornet and Organ Mr. Clark
Miss Pollock.
Solo "Jesus, lover of my Soul,"

Chorus "When the Bridegroom
Comes,', By the Choir.
Mr. "William Secor of Farragut, Fre-
rcont county, has recently patented a
machine for harvesting and husking
corn. The machine is designed to be
driven over the row and the ears arc
stripped from the stalks as the machine
passes along by radial wings which are
connected by a rotating shaft. The
ears are then carried by an endless
apron to rolles located at the back part
of the machine which strips the husks
from the ear and deposits the latter in
a receiver. The machine will receive
a through test the coming fall and
should it prove practicable will be a
blessing to the farmer in the saving of
labor, sore fingers and "sich." Council

Melinda Nevowatny, the girl who
had tue experience trying to work out
at Eight Mile Grove, and who run
away lrom there and tried to swim the
creek and get home, is having some
more experience. She has made up her
mind that Plattsmouth is too smalt a
town and that she will live in Omaha,
but her folks watch the trains to pre
vent her going. This morning she
started off with her grip and footed it
to La Platte, where 6he tired ou and
was persuaded to come back home; her
next break will probably be to go to
Oreapolis anp take the the train there
for nothing short of Omaha will satis- j
fy her.

' l'rcident Mclntyre, Mr. E. N. Grc-
nell and Mr. S. M. Barker, of the man
agers of the htate fair, were lo the city
yesterday and contracted for the remo
val of the poultry house and the Dorth
speed fttables fiom their site near the
power hall to the locality of the south
kdecd stables, which will afford about
three acres additional space for exhibits
of agricultural implements.
Last night a Herald man met Mr.
Greuell at the I'axton, and asked the
veteran manager of state fairs and pro
moter of fruit growing In the state,
what the prospects were for the coming
state show.
Mr. (irenell, who has been active in
Ptate fair directing for the past fifteen
ycarp. replied: Prospects were never
ho good as they arc now. There seems
to be an interest awakened all through
the State that never obtained until
now, and the railroads are giving us
very good rates "
"Naturally the state should have a
bigger fair each year, as it settles and im
proves, I suppose," said the newspaper
man,
Yes," replied Mr. Grene.ll, ''and I be
lieve that borne parts of the state, par
ticularly the western, expect to make
better exhibits than ever before."
"Will the wet season make a differ
ence with and class of farm products?'
inquired the reporter.
I he river counties" was the reply,
"will not show as fine aad matured
corn as hitherto, because corn is lute
with them, out that is about all. Our
cereals will be especially fine; and gar
den vegetables will exceed any pre
vious year, fetock is looking very well,
and I believe we will have liner range
stock than ever before."
Speaking of other features the mana
ger said that Mr. Chambers reported
negotiations for a field of fist horses.
There are more applications for space
than have ever been received at this
stage of affairs in any previous year.
The exhibits of farm machinery "will
ue large no doubt, because sales have
been satisfactory for several years and
Election pronrpt, for cro.s have etn
more evenly paying perhaps thi n iu any
other state. The fruit exhibit will be
a fine feature of the fair.
Burt and Washington counties will
soon put up a building near the art hall

During the past week little of
note
has occurred in our vicinity: conse-i
quently we cannot sling our aquatic
quill very extensivelj-, or soar very
high into the azure fields of jourualis
tic notoriety: but realizing as we do the
importance of Keeping our corner occu
pied, and of sustainining our reputa
tion ot being as breezy as any of our
fellow local reporters, we submit the
following:
Hurrah! The bridge builders are now
in our vicinity, and we shall soon be
deprived of the blissful privilege of
opening and closing numerous gates as
we go to and from Weeping Water.
This is a bridge on an important
thoroughfare; as it is on one of our
star routes, and also the main road
from Plattsmouth lo Lincoln." The loss
of this bridge has occasioned our citi
zens much inconvenience; but we pre
sume our commissioners have been as
expeditious as possible under the cir
cumstances, and we should feel thank
ful that our troubles in this direction
are at an end.
We understand that all the bridges
in this vicinity will receive necessary
repairs before the builders leave the
neighborhood.
Although the weather was very un-
propitious, we understand a large ma
jority of our citizens attended the camp
meeting held at Weeping Water and
enjoyed a good time.
The recent rainy weather will prove
a big thing for corn, but will injure
some small grain which the farmers
have not been able to stack vet.
Small grain is yielding well; many
pieces of oats are going to yield fifty
bushels per acre, and wheat eighteen
to twenty, and some exceptional pieces
even more.
"Apples!" "Want to buy any ap
ples?'' is the cry which almost daily
resounds through our streets from the
numerous apple peddlers with which
our country abounds.
We can say, that as far as we have
noticed, with scarcely an exception,
that the fruit they cay is very fine,
and speaks well for Nebraska as a
fruit growing State.
The pic nic to which we referred in
our last passed off very pleasantly, and
was one of 'the most enjojable occa
sions of the season.
Mr. John Hart, Miss Mary Mapes,
Miss Clara Holenbeck, Mrl Samuel
Richardson and Mr. L. R. Tyson, all of
this vicinity, are in Plattsmouth this
week attending the Teachers' Institute.
This speaks well for this place, and for
the enterprise of its teaching frater
nity. Hoping we will have more to write
about next, time, we subscribe ourself.
Your affectionate, Modoc.

who since his settlement and entrance
into business in this city has made
