Word was received this morning
llial Miss Florence Waugh, from
the stale library .commission,
would arrive in (lie city Monday to
1cgin the work of catalogueing the
books in (lie public library in this
city. The library here has a rare
opportunity to get this work done
for the bare expense of the work,
which would cost otherwise close
lo and as Miss Waugh is
one of the most clllr.ient library
workers in the stale the work will
he done in tirst-class shape and
prove of untold value to the
library and its patrons. In the
present condition of affairs, if
the efficient librarian, Miss Jones,
was compelled to Rive tip the
work there would be no way of
Idling anything about the books,
an there has been no catalogueing
done, here, and it is only dun to
the fact that Miss Jones has been
o painstaking in her work that
the library has been able to pet
aloiiR as well as it has, and as the
chance offered by the. slate board
was too Rood to pass up, the local
library accepted their proposition
to do the work. The Plattsmouth
library now has over 5,000
volumes on ils shelves and it is
time that they were arraimcd
in proper manner, so that the.
patrons ran tell just where to Re
what they want.

"THE SERVANT IN THE
HOUSE," PARMELE AT
n
From SHturdny g Dally.
, W. Fredrick Phillips, who is
olaing "Manson" in "The Serv
ant in the House," which wlil ap
pear at the I'armele theater Fri
day, January 17, was until quilt!
recently a minister in a promin
ent church at Portage Wisconsin.
Having seen the play several
lime, Mr. Phillips came to the
conclusion that it was a better
sermon than any he had ever been
able to preach, and having had
considerable experience upon the
stage before entering the pulpit,
he applied for the part. At llrst
the owners of tho play were not
in favor of cngagin.7 him, fearing
it might be offensive to certain
classes of people Ihoroughout the
country, but when they found out
how sincere he really wus and
listened to a few of his arguments
in defense of his position, their
hesitation vanished. It is said
the salary was not considered, as
Mr. Phillips feels that, he is more
than repaid by the good he is do
ing, for no one can see his won
der ful performance without feel
ing that after all it is belter to
"do unto others as you would have
them do unto you."
Ice Crop Not Very Good.
The ice that has been cut so
far this season is not of very ex
cellent quality, although of good
thickness, but the ice has a very
dark and dirty appearance and is
not of the usual clear look that
the ice generally put up has. If
I he cold weather continues the
dealers will probably be able to
harvest ihe usual amount of ice,
as the present culling is near the
old Iloeky Point, and with con
tinued cold nil tings can probably
be made further out. in the river
where the ice is clearer.
