Slim Is Here
Charles Sponsler of Shenendoah,
known to most people as "Slim", is
in the city for a day or two trying to
interest the merchants in some kind
of an attraction to draw the people in
and Btir up a little excitement in the
town. He is known as the "Long
distance talker" and has been in the
city several times with different ad
vertising attractions, the last time,
when tha phontoon bridge was
opened across the river. He thinks a
fall stock show would be a fine thing
for the place but he is in favor of
putting on races and other stunts to
make the event a most excitingjonc
that will draw people for miles. He
spoke well of the prospects for such a
show here, feeling sure it will make a
good annual event that will be a big
ad for Plattsmouth.
Has Vaudeville Act
One of the best vaudeville shows
that has been seen in town for some
time was put on yesterday afternoon

the best little ladies in her line that
ever appeared in Plattsmouth. Her
baritone singing was the feature of the
act, while G. Avery with his strong
tenor in his original production "The
Tryout" which is a bunch of good
laughs, certainly wins the audience.
Mr. Warner holds up his name of
"King of the knives and glass" and is

dancing. They will appear before
the footlights again tonight and to
morrow night.

Balzao and Black Coffee.
Balzac was addicted to the use of
strong black coffee and depended upon
it as a nervous stimulant during the
hours which he devoted to composi
tion. Its effect bo has himself de
scribed in these words:
"The coffee falls Into your stomach.
Immediately everything starts into ac
tion. Your ideas begin to move like
Grand Army battalions on the battle
field, and the battle opens. Memories
arrive at a run, standards flying; the
light cavalry of comparisons breaks
into a magnificent gallop; the artillery
of logic dashes up and unllmbers;
thoughts come rushing up as sharp
shooters; characters spring up on all
sides; the paper becomes covered with
ink. for the struggle has begun and
ends In torreuts of black water like
the battle In black powder."
