"Still
my Fancy can Discover,
Some Green Spot where Frlenda
May Dwell."
During the week we had the pleasure
of viniting the thriving, bustling business
town of Greenwood, located in the west
part of the county on the main line of
the B. & M., in as fertile a spot as lays
under the sun. The country surrounding
that beautiful little city is as level as the
fabled lochs of Scotland, and the seil as
deep as the "Mighty Maker."
Greenwood will never make a Chicago
r Kansas City, but she is fatt waddle
ing to the front, and distancing her
neighbors.
The citizens of that place are fully
abreast with the times, and have the push
that will not fail to bring them to the
front ranks of any town in the county.
Up from the rustling, pushing little
city rises one constant hum of industry.
We feel greatly indebted to many eiti
z:ns of Greenwood for their kind and
cordial treatment while sojurning in their
midst. Among those who assisted us in
our business was, Atty. C. A. Woosley,
Geo. W. Cutler, G. W. Clark, Dr. Ramey
and others. Ave wish to extend our
hearty thanks, to not only the citizens of
Greenwood, but to all the citizens of the
several towns of Cass county, where we
have visitid. Time forbids us making
mention of the many features of interest
at Elmwood, Weeping Water, Cedar
Creek, South Bend and Louisville.
As we co to other held of labor, we
would bid our many friends a fond adieu
and be ready to extend to them the right
hand of fellowship if permitted t meet
again. Yours,
C. B. Wilsox, IIhrald.

Madame Janauschek was warmly
greeted by a large audience last evening
as she began her farewell engagement in
this city. Her .Meg Alerniies" is not a
character that is likely to live in the
pleasant memories of her friends like
some of the tragedy queens whose parts
in former years she hadlnaie her own,
y et it is a grand and deeply tender repre
sentation of a weird character whose
desply passionate nature can only be de
picted by a master of tragic art. For
the last two acts "Meg Merrilies" holds
the stage, the central and commamding
figure, a veritable witch in appearance,
but strong in her loyalty to "Henry Ber
tram" as the lawful heir, and an aveng
ing spirit to "Bailie Bearcliff and Dirk

"Mez Merrilies" is a melodrama and tells

BOARD OF TRADE MEETING.
" Short but Sweet."-Another
Railroad.
The board of trade met last night.
The president made a very able speech in
behalf of another railroad entering
Plattsmouth. Mr. Weckbach made some
sensible remarks, followed by Mr. O or
der. Hon. F. E. Wiiite took the floor
and speke, at length, in a very intelli
gent and logical manner, commencing :
"Gentlemen, when I last spoke at one of
our meeting, I was accused the next day
of being a mossback, and that is one
reason why I do not wish to address this
meeting. He then offered the following
resolution :
Resolved : That it is the expressed
sentiment of the Board of Trade, that as
an inducement to the Missouri Paeitic
Railway to construct its line into, and
establish a depot within the original cor
porate limits of the city of Plattsmouth,
that the city will either vote $.0,000 in
bends to the said railway, or secure to it
such right-of-way as may be deemed
satisfactory to the road.
This motion was seconded and ap
proved.
The secretary, Mr. F. Herrman. will
forward a copy today to S. II. II. Clark
General Manager Missouri Pacific, St
Louis.
Jlr. . Herrmann, becretary Hoard
Trade, is deserving of special mention
for the rapid manner in hi?U lie catches
the words of the speakers when they arc
making motions or passing resolution
and the accurate manner in winch tuev
tire recorded in the books of the Bonn
of Trade. For courtesies and invaluable
aid extended to the press in enabling
them to make authentic report, the re
porters of this cify return their thanks.
