A 'urge attendance was h id at the
4 o'clock trospel meeting at the rooms of
the Young Men's Christian Association
These meeting: are conducted by the
young men in such a free manner that it
is pleas mt for all who attend, and much
good influence with one or more conver
sions has been the result of each meeting
this year.
It is said tliTc ii a man in Chicago
who possess such muscular power over
the drums of his ears that he can become
deaf at leisure. Such an advantage
would Imj a blessing to those who trv to

Mr. Carl. wh wis "supposed to be

t ill li . : ami i:ieo r the death of the
scrapper," which, judging by bis tone
f voice and strong Ian ;t"a;e. he did not
altogether approve.
- Ai e 1" tor's life is tvuly 0112 of much
con.' :il r-'.tion. He is continually obliged
to think of thumping. which he ha.
promised him from day to daj. If he
would occasionally mee t with an oppor
tunity to display what little science he
has and gain a little information from an
opponent, there might be some possible
chance for one to defend himself when
any serious trouble might arise, but as
a rule, the suspense a man is kept in is
harder on him than the battle would be.
The number of young nu n of Piatt: -mouth

entarily expected.
Mr. John Robins succeeded in stop
in.r ! riin.-iwnv team this morning as it
was coming along Viuc street at a yery
speedy rate. The team pulled a light
spring wagon, and had it not been for
the nerve he possessed to attempt such
.1 fete, some damage would doubtless
ha . e resulted.
--Mr Jno. Saddler, who ha been in the

Many of the Omaha Herald readers
entered a kick yesterday because of the
advanced price on that paper. Notice
was given in yesterday's issue, that the
rice woidd be raised from fifteen to

- a
that they would publish the best paper
west of Chicago, which would-necessitate
the advance.

Iv the appearance of sme of the

! '.miplaint comei to us from out
rub i ibers at Cedar Creek and other
local points in regard to the delivery of
the HiCKAi.D We must say that we are
done an injustice by the mail service, and
we a:c not at fault. If the Journal ar
rives at Cedar Creek before the Herald
there is surely some partiality shown, as
this paper is d. liver ed at the office here
neail3 every aftcrnon before the Journal.
If this negligence is still continued the
matter will surely be investigated.
A new sidewald is being laid to the
curbstone in front f the lot adjoining
Fitg Tald's bbck. There are many other
plac.s which present a doplorable condi
tion en account of the negligence of
piopcrty owners in laying a respectable
walk. The city council should take
steps to see that the w-'rk of laying side
walks to reach the curbing is immediately
commenced, as the sidewalks in the con
dition they are now in, are a disgrace to
the city and more so to the business men
who have pkid no attention tosuch work.
" Uncle Tom's Cain " was present
ed to one of the lirge-t assemblages seen
in the opera houss this season, on Satur
day night last. There were many pres
ent who were n -ver inside the doors of
the opera house before, and consequently
much appreci it:on of the old and popular
play wis manifested. The company
could not be termed exceptional, as there
are se er.al on the rocd surpassing them
in ihe situ lay.
