take a notion to start out again, turned
him over to Jailer McBride and will
make arrangements to send him to
the reform school.
A Pleasant Surprise.
A few of the friends and relatives of
John F. Hennings of Eight Mile Grove
precinct gave him a pleasant surprise
one evening last week, the event be
ing his twenty sixth birthday. He
had begun to grow sleepy and had de
cided to retire early, when the boys
walked in with baskets well filled with
eatables.
So interested did they become ia
their games and conversation that
they almost forgot to go home. Look
ing at their watches and finding that
it was morning (2:30) they wished
their friend and neighbor many happy
returns and departed.
The following were present: Jacob
Tritsch, Charles Hennings. John A
Heonings.F. J. Henninps.M. L. Fried-
rich, Jacob Volk, Peter Volk and John

Louis Thomas, one of the Platts
mouth boys who joined company C of
the Thirty-ninth regiment, has writ

bis friends in this city. His letter is
dated December 22, and at that time
i hey were camped at San Pedro, on an
old rice plantation, where the First
Nebraska boys distinguished them
selves as fighters.
Among other things, be says that
Arthur Searle, another Plattt-mcuth
boy, had the misfortune to dislocate
his ankle and that for a time he was
in the hospital, but the injuries were
not of a serious nature.
Shepard's Minstrel Jubilee.
Lieutenant Walter Allen, one of the
leading features with Shepard's min
strel jubilee, carries more parapher
nalia than any other ventriloquist in
the country.
Mr. Alien ia an inventive genius in
producing new ideas as an adjunct to
his natural talent as a mimic.

'no thing but a boy dressed up."
Lieutenant Allen's stage settings,
furniture, figures and their median
ism cost nearly $10,000 to build, and
during his long run at the Loodon
music hall he was truly pronounced by
the British press to be "America's
greatest living ventriloquist."
Shepard's great minstrel jubilee will
appear at Rock wood hall on Tuesday
evening, February 6.

EXCELLENT MUSIC
u
Second Concert By the B. & M.
Band Proves Successful.
Waterman Ball Crowded With Music
Lovlna; People and the Boys Receive
His; Hearty Encores Dr. Barnes
Gets Into Strious Trouble Down At
Auburn.
From Monday's Daily.
An excellent musical program ex
cellently presented, sums up the con
cert given by the B. & M. band in
Waterman's hall Saturday night be
fore a large and discriminating aud
ience. Under the baton of its efficient
director, E. H. Schulhof,the organiza
tion gave each selection with a good
appreciatioc of its musical worth. To
be sure, the band has not reached the
height of perfection, ytt, with the
splendid foundation already laid and
1'dant enthusiasm of each of its
members, the outlook for the futureol
the band is, to say the least, roseate.
The program Saturday ni'ht was a
popular one there being an absence
of tiaehy music, commendable in the
program maker and several numbers
were of sufficient grade to tax a much
older and more elaborately equipped
organization Among these were the
'Poet and Ptasant" overture by
Suppe, a composition of many intric
acies and technical difficult! s. vet
withal, given a remarkably clear and
worthy rendition, and another was the
pretty descriptive piece, "Tho Mill In
the Forest," by Eilenbcrg. Another
selection lhattrxtd ability of the
band perh3p3 more than any other
was the serenade, "The Old Church
Organ," in which tu.-tained tones and
general choral simplicity called for
smoothness and (quality of interpreta
tion.
A pleasing interpolation wis the
piano number by Miss Antonia Kessler,
She played Gottschalk's "The Dying
Poet" so well that she was twice re
called. C. L. Currier also scored a
hit with the audience in his cornet
solo, the "Hcneysuckle Polks,'! y
Casey, and responded with "The List
Chord," by Sullivan. A. D. E gen
broadt furnisbod a comical touch by a
metrical history of the band, sung to
the famous tune "Listen to My Tale of
Wee."
The song, "Open Thy Window
Love," sung by Tne News qu irtet,
called forth vociferous applause and
paved the way for three encorep. The
quartet has good timber in it, and,
with practice, will accomplish much in
the future.
With the energy and enthusiasm
manifested by the men comprising the
personnel of tho B. & M. band and
under the intelligent leadership of so
good a drill master ns Mr. Sehulhof.
together with the hearty and appre
ciativo support of the people of Platts
mouth, no tangible reason exists v.-hy
this organiz .tion should not hrenme
widely known over the state.

Lincoln Oela State Fair.
At a meeting of the State Board of
Agriculture in Lincoln last evening
it was decided to accept the proposi-
lion of the Commercial club of that
place, and Lincoln will be the place of
Loldine the next state fair. The Lin-
coin busm ss men agreed to raise
$3,0C0 to be exp"ded under the super
vision of th- board.
Then' was some discussion as to the
program for the ppeed ring. Mr. Mac-
farlaod was namd a delegate to a
meeting f racing men at Hastings on
Februr.ry 6, at which a circuit of six
teen cities in the state will be made
up, includi g Council Bluffs. The de
sire is to get a date in this circuit and
to make the races a feature of the fair.
The members of the board have de
tsrmined upon some of the improve
ments to be made at tl e grounds with
the money furnished. First of all a
new roof will be put uoon the mercan
tile hall. The horse and cattle stalls
will be repaired and some work will

NEED SUPPLEMENTS
NATURE.
4tavlsm Amons; Animals Accounts
Their DUtlnotlre Peculiarities.
for
Students of natural history are well
aware of the fact that most animals
have arrived by a process of evolution
at their present state that necessity
has endowed them with certain traits
that nature primarily denied them. One
of the closest of observers has reached
the conclusion that all such phenom
ena may De explained on tne ground or
atavism. Thus he claims that the horse
of our day derives his swiftness and
power of endurance from the fact that
ms ancestors In former days were
obliged to flee from and frequently to
defend themselves against their ene
mies, the wolves. In like manner he
claims that the reason why the horse
shies is because his ancestors were
forced to be constantly on the alert
against hidden enemies, and that the
reason why he rears and plunges is be
cause only by pursuing such tactics
could his forefathers shake off wild
cw.iuia13 who nau leaped upon ineir
backs. Sheep when frightened imme-
rt!atr.1 .u- i-.-.!.-,
ii'ey can reach. The reason, says the I
same author, is because ail sheep orle-
,,, . , : - , -
maw lnnaDiiea mountainous aisiricxa.
And this, he claims, is also the reason
why they wear a thick fleece of wool
all the year through, the summer tem
perature In mountainous districts be
ing almost as cold as that of winter,
Finally, we are assured that the rea
son sheep invariably foliow a leader is
because their ancestors were obliged
to go In Indian file through the narrow
mountain passes. Pigs have aleo en
gaged the investigator's attention. He
was puzzled for a good while as to the
cause of their grunting, but now he
thinks he has discovered the real rea
son. The pigs of today, he says, evl
dently grunt because their ancestors
made their homes in thick woods, and
only by making this sound could they
keep track of each other and guard
tnemselves againsi goiug '"J' 11 U1"

this latter explanation, a scientist sug
gests that Dr. Robinson might now do
well to spend some time in trying to
find out why the horse neigiii and the

PLATrSMOlTH.
Serenely calm towards the skies
The wooded hills of Plattsmouth rise;
To eastward, turbulent and wide
Missouri pours her turbid tide;
To westward, like a shallow sea.
The prairies stretch out endlessly.
Between the bluffs of yellow clay
The straggling highways wend their way.
And here and there, on rounded domes.
Are perched, high up, palatial home?.
While in the valleys circling round
The humble cottages are found.
Amidst the scenes of hurrying life
Ignoble aims and sordid strife.
On hill, in vale the church spires high
Point solemnly to the sky.
Like fingers, showing those who plod.
The path to the heights of God.
