jOUTH 1'AltK. 'Ihia new and desirable addition to the City ol riattsmouth is handbornelj situated between Chicago and j
Lincoln Avenues, immediately adjoining Plattsmouth on the South, and leaa thn nine blocks from the businesa center of the city. Chi
cago and Lincoln Avenues are the main thoroughfares and furnish the only circuitous drive out and into the city which avoids hills, thus adding inter
est to the locality as a Residence place. The sub-division of this beautiful tract of Land into Town Lots is now about complete, and the same
will be placed upon the market within a week and at figures which will be an inducement to any desiring to purchase. For the comfort
of those making homes in this addition, as well ns fur the pleasure of the City at large, the proprietors have set apart five acres of
Magnificent Forest Trees to be used as a Park, which grounds will be deeded to the City without cost when the City Coun
cil signifies its intention of making permanent improvements thereon. The present level grade of the Avenues sug
gests the early construction of our Street Railway to this locality, and to this end a liberal inducement will be
offered to the company. The proprietors of this valuable addition propose to spare neither pains nor
reasonable expense to make it not only pleasant, but profitable to all persons purchasing lots; and
in furtherance of this proposition will immediately re-invest the proceeds of the sale of the
first one hundred lots, in choice, commodious residences in SOUTH l'ARK,
and the same will be sold upon MONTHLY PAYMENTS. Thus the
money received in payment for Lots will be used in the enhancing
of the value of the Lots pnrchased as well as those of the pro-
more firm
in value each day,
advancing on tJte basis of
a permanent business foundation
With its present railroad facilities, a de
sirable system of water works, gas works, and
the certain construction of a street railway, together
with the almost certain building of the Missouri Pacific and
Omaha and Southern Railways into our City, and the development of
a number of other important enterprises in our midst, there is hardly a doubt
of the grand future awaiting our City.

It is but justice to say that in this cele
bration, the treatment of the visitors, the
assured success of the water works and
the impression made upon the visitors,
Plattsmouth has won a distinction that
will rebound to her credit for years to
come. More liberal treatment to invited
guests could not have been anticipated.
It seemed that every citizen of the city
was a self-constituted conimitte of one to
try and make cverypocfy feel at home.
The Journal representative is under
lasting obligations for many unexpected
courtesies extended to him and to the

How a Brave L.'ttle Woman Defend
ed Her Hew Home.
A lively tale of claim-jumping comes
to us, says the Atwcrod (Colo.) Advocate,
from beyond the Frenchman country,
many miles southeast tit Sterling. Six
moths ago Miss Minnie Palmer, a bright
oug lady of 23 happy ears from Man-
lattan Kans., filed a pre-emption claim
on 100 acres of fine government land
near the Burlington & Mif scuri in the
eastern part of this state. Tho claimant
erected a comfortable one-story frame
house, dug a well, had ten acres fenced,
and three month9 ago went to Denver
and took service in a hotel to replenish
her depleted pockctbook and buy seed
for spring crops, ect. During ber ab-
. . J
Bence a new railroad, was suiTeJeu
through the land and it promised to be
come a valuable property. Last wt'ck
Miss Minnie returned to her claim to fine1
the hougo occupied by a big strapping
Ncbraskian, who informed her that he
had homesteaded the land six weeks be
fore, and "dot by sbimminic he would
dot lanffholt until the goat offer his
back cum!" Expostulation and argu
ments were of no avail, and on the pre
tense that she wished to get something
out of her trunk gained admission to the
house, hurriedly closing the door in the
Teuton's face, who was about to enter
with a bucket of water in hia hand. How
that Dutchman raved and swore it would
take profane history to relate.
The door was most to strong to force,"
so the window was next tried, raised,
and the claim-jumper had one leg over
the window-sill when a bullet from a
ittle 22-calibre pill-thrower entered his
left shoulder, and before he could turn
his head to expectorate another found
lodgment in his hip, and as he dropped
to the ground a third parted his hair in
the middle, making an insignificant scalp
wound, The injured claim-jumper beg
ged the girl to "no more shoot, and
that he was "gif up everything" if he
was only permitted to live.
The heroic Miss Minnie dressed her
fallen foe's wounds as best she could
none of which will prove serious and
that evening the discomfited enemy was
removed to a friend's house, three miles
away, where proper attention could be
given, and which he vows he will leave
only to go back to Germany. The unan
imous sentiment of the community sus
tains' the young lady in her brave battle
for her home and her rights and no pros
ecution will fellow.
Famous Prehistoric Image.
Washington special, 2: The Unite4
States man-of-war Galena arrived at the
navy yard to-day from the tropics with t
cargo of monkeys and curiosities for the
Smithsonian institution on board. Among
other things is the famous prehistoric
image from the Easter Island, which Is
considered as great a curiosity as the
obelisk of Egypt. It is now two year
since Prof. Baird first set on foot efforts
to secure one of these idols, when the
United States steamship Mohican was di
rected to go to Ea9ter island and securs
one. The island is in the eastern partjof
the Pacific ocean, 2,300 miles from the
coast of South America. It is about
eleven miles long and six miles wide,
with about a thousand inhabitants of the
Polynesian race, who are seldom visited
by navigators. They are Christians, hav
ing been converted by some French tnis-
nonaries in 1865. The island contain
several hundred of these gigantic statues,
the antiquity of which is a sealed book
to ethnological students. The present
nhabhlants of the island have no tools
with which to have carved them, nor
means witti which to have moved them.
It seems certain, therefore, that they are
the product .vf some former age. Native
tradition give fhem a supernatural
origin.
