CITY CORDIALS.
DEATH OF SISTER CHKYOSTOM
Umbrellas, rubber coats and door
mat are all the go with the householders
now.
The Washington banquet on Apri
30, will be an affair to be long remem
bered.
The preparations for the Methodist
Easter entertainment Friday night arc
quite extensiye.
The Nebraska City Press suggests
that the bold bank robber of Dcnyer of
two weeks ago may be Quinn Dobanuan
The description fits, and the boldness ol
the robbery was not beyond his daring.
From last week's publication of the
Blair Pilot one would observe that Blair
is not iroinsr to tro dry this season. Blair
is a place of 2,500 or 3,000 people and
there are seven applications for saloons
and four for drug stores before thecaun-
to sell malt, spiritous and vinous liquors
The Washington banquet seems to
be absorbing much of the social and pa
triotic interest at present, but decoration
day is rapidly approaching, which sug
gests the query as to what will be done
on that sacred day. Plenty of time yet,
however, remains, for extensive and ap-
propritate ceremonies to be planned for.
The several recent fires in this city
seems to be a caution to guard again&t
that destroyer. But this is not the only
place where spring is characterized with
fires. Reports from all parts of the state
show that fire is a frequent visitor to
many places of minor proportions than
Plattsmouth, and with more sejious re
sults, nevertheless all should keep on
their guard.
'No sir, I am not a candidate for re
election." remarked County Commis
sioner Dickson yesterday, in reply to an
inquiry made by the Echo man. He
continued: "'I have served three years
with the expiration of this term and have
tried to serve the county as best I knew
how, and am now willing to step down
and out." 3Ir. Dickson has undoubted
ly made one of the best county commis
sioners we have ever had, and should he
desire to return, his friends would stand
by him; but he positiyely declines.
EIniwood Echo.
ACood Company.
The Clair Pateo company appear
ed at the opera house Monday night in
"Queena" and tast night "In an Evening
Out." Both plays were presented in
first-class manner and fur better than it
was expected by those who were in at
tendance. Every one is fully up in his
or her part and we assure the public that
the company is better than any other re
petition company ever visiting our city
and are deserving of a better patronage
than they have aeceived so far. Miss
Edith Arnold, the leading lady, has been
a stranger in our city but has won a place
in the esteem and affections of our theatre
going public. Mr. Simms, just the plain
comedian, carries his part well, and you
must see him to appreciate his fine come
dy, and he is a great success as an Irish
comedian, in which part you will see
biro, tonight, as the company presents the
great Madison Square success. "The
Martyr," a great society drama by the
author of the "Two Orphans." They
should be greeted by a packed house.

poses to giye you the best in the city. i

at St. John's school, April 17, at
-. 2:0 a. in., aged 35 years.
A gloom spread over the citizens of
Roman Catholic faith this morning as
well as the attendants of St. John's
school, as the news of the death of Sister
Chryostom of that school, was spread
about. Mus Chryostom has been
instructor in music in the Catholic school
for time time, and in that art was very
proficieut in every department. Deceased
wan 35 years old, and was subject to
heart trouble, bnt for about three weeks
has been confined to her room with pneu
monia, from which she died this morn
ing. She was born and raised in Portag,
Wis., and attended the convent at Sin
sinaw.i Mound, that state, and to the
latter place the remains will betaken for

A Little Fault Finding-
Considerabla criticism was heard yes
terday of the way things went at the
Doyle fire Monday evening. The fault
found was in the lack of all system or
ord. r, and no fire commander was there
in charge. Of course the firemen were
on h:iud but the water thrown from the
hose was thrown in confusion and with
out instruction and wet up the goods
that had been removed from the house;
and again, while the firemen were outside
when all fire was really out, parties with
out authority were inside jamming holes
in lUs wall searching for fire after the
house had been soaked almost from end
to end. Of course nothing was done but
what was in earnestness and sincerity,
but the excitement that prevails at a fire
needs :i cool-headed foreman and one or
two fire policemen whose duty is nothing
but to instruct in the application of water
and re3, and forbid unnecessary de
struction oi! property.
