Jy5"Scrvices were held in the Episco pal church en Christmas, at 6 and 11 A M., and at 6 P. M. a Sunday Sehool Festival was held and the Christinas Tree displayed, and its load of pretty thirgs distributed among the scholars. m (FJ?"Tb M. E. Sunday School had a Christmas tree at the Court Iloutio on Christmas Eve. The hall was crowded at an early hour, ar.d everybody and everybody's good children received pres ents and enjoyed the occasion wonder fully. 57The Presbyterian Christmas Festi val and supper on Christmas Eve was a f.ne affair, and was one of the most re munerative Festivals ever held in the o"ity at least such is our judgement in the absente of a definite knowledge of the receipts. m g"A little girl at the Episcopal Sun day School Festival on Christmas gave a very natural and practical answer to the qu?ation by the teacher why little chil I'rm should feelhrtppy on that day.

Sever Known to miss a Stitch. 1 fcavo had one of your machines in rny family for two years, during which time it has been thoroughly tested at eve ery description of plain sewing from the doest cambrick to the heaviest Canada tweed and in ever case with entire sat isfaction.

' QjAt a regular convocation of Ne braska Chapter No. 3. held on Tuesday evening, Dec. 24;h, the following officers were elected and appointed for the ensu. ing ilisonic year: 12. T. Duke M. E. H- P.

It telis all about his terrible speech in Boston. George sent it, post paid. George report ed the speech. George paid for ta.e printing. George is a weighty individual. He knows how to advertise. CTCol. Thomas Patterson, of Rock Bluffs has our thanks for a fine turkey for a New Years dinner. Although the Col. is of the Democratio persuation in politics, he is not so ultra as to prevent him being a man all over; or prevent him thinking a political oppenent can be a man. We wish there were more men in this world with hearts in them like that of Col. Patterson. 5Several of our public spirited men have made liberal donations to the Li brary Association of this city, and among them wo notice that Judge W. D. Gage has presented the association with some thing over forty volumes of excellent works all of which are neatly bound in library style. A few more such men as judge Guge in this community will insure us one of the best librarys in the State. Unavimocs Verdict. The most rigid annalysis by good chemists have failed to discover any thing in the Best Chemi cal Saleratus which can, when properly uss J,be in the left9t degree detrimental to health. While the women of our country entertain sentiments wi lely different upon other matters, all concur in a verdict that tho Btst Chemical Saloratus is the only infallible article in use for light and sweet bread. C tf Tbe article in this issue of the Herald headed "About Nebraska" is in answer to a letter from Mr. Jake Covert; of Washington, Ind., to Mr. Nelson Jean, of this couuty. In answering his questions wa have given a simple state ment of fads, without varnish or color Wehivve not given any of the surround ings which, in our opinion, make this a preferable country to any other of the earns apparent advantages. """?"There are a number of boys in this city ranging from ten to eighteen years of age, who deserve locking up in the ealabouse for a night or two. They are habitual hangers on around saloons, and are fast forming habits that will render them worthless vagabonds for a lifetime. Last Saturday evsning a num ber of them were driven from the billiard hall by the proprietor therei f . when thy procured a long stick and lashed it across the door of the saloon on the outside and fastened the handle of the door in such nvinner as ti prevent it being opened. The office of Dr. J hn l'.laek was served in the eame man: er. If the parents of these young caalida'.es for tha Peniten tiary cannot kfep th-nj within bonds, the city Marshall will soon take them in cbarjre. r'J7"'Seo n3W advertisement of E. A Wiggenhron & Ce. It will be seen that they have put goods down to eastern price", and some articles bi-low what they are retailing for in eastern cities. They have a large stock of goods, and they are all fresh no old stock that mut be sold at high pricis to "get their money back." Business in this city has assumed an en tirely different shape from what it was two years ago, and farmers and western retailers can now purchase here cheaper than at any other city on the Missourri river. Some may think this statement made for 'bujeome," but we assure you it is not, and will show you why. Our merchants have just as good facilities for obtaining goods as any other, and better than some; their rents are not nearly so high as in Omaha. or Nebraska City; fuel is much cheaper hoar, living only costs about two-thirds as much as in seme of the ''fast" places, and in consequence of tho cheapness of rents and living, our merchants do not hare to pay so much clerk hire. Everything, in fact, enables our merchants to sell goods at tho very lowest figures. If ym do not believe they do it, just look at somo of the prices quoted in Wiggenhorn and Co's new ad vertisement; or, what is better, come and see for yourself . . ; 57"The Masonio Installation on Fri day last (St. John's day) passed off in the most pleasint and agreeable manner to all concerned. The officers elect for Platts.nouth Lodge No. C, were first in stalledthe Master elect by the' retiring Master, E. T. Duke, and the other of cers by the new Master, R. R. Living ston. The officers of Nebrasta Chapter No. 3 were then installed by Grand High Preitt D. II. Wheeler. After the Instal lation cer emonies an ode was sung, and the audience then listened to a short but most excellent oration by our worthy brother, Rev. Geo. C. Betts (which will appear in the next issue of tho herald) The Masonic Fraternity, with their fe male relations, then repaired to the Platte Valley IIouse,'where they partook of one of the finest repasts ever spread in Nebraska. That prince of landlords. Capt. E. B. Murphy, did all that could be done to make the occasion one or Ics tivity and joy to all participants, and he succeeded beyond all expectations. Af ter supper tho "gay and festive" ones of the party again repaired to the hall, where they "tripped the light fantastic" until a seasonable hoar. B-iing ourseif a staid and "steady ging" personage, we are not supposed t know any thing about this part of the performance; yet we must acknowledge that our boot soles were somewhat ' thinner ' when we left the ball than when we entered, The music and smiling faees were "too mueh for us," and we forgot, for a short sea son, that oar pesition was tbit of r porter alon.i. " ("Fairbanks' scales were awarded the highest premium at tho great "Paris Exposition," and at most of the "western State Fairs" tbe present year, and have never f ailed in fair competition with any others. But what is of more practical value, as showing the estimation in which thse scales are held by tho public who have known and used them so long, is the fuct that the Messrs, Fairbanks' scales have steadily increased for nearly forty years, being Ihe present year largely in excess of any former one. (Mr. Wm. Buster is now engaged in canvassing this county for the new work f Calvin E. Stowe, entitled "The Books of the Bible." Every family should have a eopy of this work.
