Considerable lias been said of lute coii-

called f tiikorn who are ineosHaiitly throw

their business interfering with no one
and no one's business. Some of the fra
ternity of i -Inkers have iu ted as gf nt lemon
nincu the trouble has commenced and they
have said nothing to anyone who did
not insult them. Of these I have l.othitig
to say, but a half doen or so, who ap

lias (hired to form ;in opinion of his own
and who does not coineidi: with thorn in
their belief. I urn not condemning the
brotherhood for this, arid am only speak
ing of a half u dozen or so who are in the
bubit of insulting some one continually.
Should the brotherhood desire the sym
pathy of the citizens of Plattsmouth,
Mich members of their orginiz ition should
lie strongly requested to use what ever
good finalities of d i cney they are pos
sessed of, for if their actions an; sanc
tioned by it longer, no sympathy can
possibly be shown 11113' of tlieni by right
thinking ptoplo. It. was not thought so
much of until lady ft iends of parties who
just did not happen to believe as they
'tliil were insulted on their account. Such
(..iiidiicf will not or can not be tolerated
ia :i civilized community, and if those
lioisy members of that organization will
persist in making themselves such a
soui.-e of aiinoyaiu , steps w ill certainly
be taLen immediately to put them where
their noise will resound in their own ears.
Such actions have been looked upon w"1,
.. some time, hut when it
reaches tin: stage that a man is obliged
to be slugged or "believe the- same as we
do or -will mal.e you"' it is about time
jonictl;iifyai done to put a stop to it.
i would be w ell for the brotherhood to
order tuelj neu ott of the stii or put
muzzles on Some of them, for they are
plow ling around at all hours, interfering
with peaceable citizens and throwing out
indecent slurs, slugging people because
they would (die to think ililferent from
some of tin in and expressing themselves.
My advice to such fellows would lie to
to wink. J.et the straightforward
brotherhood men take a little advice and
keep these men under their control or ex
pel them from the order.

thing to turn up hail eonlliled to tlio eare of
a south siilo pawnbrohcr, were to he sold
under the hammer. Mr. M ieawber attended
the ceremony. So did Mrs. Mieawlier. So
did a throng of bargain hniiterj. The street
was packed with them. Tlio auctioneer was
elderly, bald and benevolent Ho wore jee
tacJes. Ho Loro a general likeness to Mr.
Pickwick. Ho was ussisted by a young
gentleman of rapid and disjointed utterance
who resembled Mr. Jinylo; and ho was always
calling attention to his Pickwickian philan
thropy, the purity of his motives, tlio "square
ness" of his conduct. In his vindication Mr.
Jinglo aidod hhn volubly.
The sale began with a pair of solid gold
mounted earrings. Somebody bid
"Two dollars," Eang out Mr. Pickwick.
"Two dollars and a quarter) Who says
quarter? Quarter, quarter, quarter, will
you make it?"
"Projierty of prominent society lady,"
cried Mr. Jinglo. "Husband speculated
caught in wheat deal couldn't come to time
went to board at night hung himself from
gallery cut down in morning wheat rose
immediately would have been millionaire
sad case very."
"My only reason," said Mr. Pickwick, "for
parting with these precious relics is tho
pawnbroker's stern command. Gcntlemeu,
you know me. I guarantiee everything I
sell. My heart bleeds to disposo of these ear
rings, but I gc'irantec tltorrj. ilow who says

Tho crowd was now fl" "

, oeetle browed men stood near
the auctioneer, and whenever ho urged them
to "make it a quarter" they generally made
it a quarter. A suspicion that they were In
sympathy with the venders made their
neighbors fight rather shy of them, and
whenever they showed much disposition tc
pile up "quarters" they geueraJly had the
bidding to themselves. Once or twice a wo
man at the back would timidly raise her
linger anil secure a ring or a brooch. Tho
professionals would turn w ith a laugh, and
regard their unprofessional sister with scorn.
A handsome Newfoundland dog strayed in
from the street, lay dowu 011 the edge of tho
throng, and regarded the proceedings with 1
philosophic loftiness. "What form of human
chicanery is this." he demanded, blinking his
big brown eyes in the sun.
"Here is a watch," said Mr. Pickwick,
"with a solid fourteen carat gold case."
"An immense bargain," added Mr. Jingle.
"Stem winder," said Mr. Pickwick.
"Key winder," said Mr. Jinglo.
"Perfect order," said Mr. Pickwick.
"Caso alone worth the money," said Mr.
Jinglo.
"Gentlemen," said Mr. Pickwick, beaming
through his spectacles, "this is not my sale.
This is the pawnbroker's sale. You kuow the
pawnbroker. He is as benevolent as i am.
His heart bleeds when circumstances compel
him to sell tho forfeited pledges of tho needy.
Twenty dollars are bid. Who says quarter
Quarter, quarter, quarter, shall 1 make it?"
A third auctioneer now made his appear
ance, lie was more violent than his part
ners. IIo was revolutionary iu his doctrines
and was for "smashing things." A lady's
gold watch was produced. "Break it to
pieces, geutlemcu," cried the revolutionist.
"Grind it to powder. The gold dust to which
vou reduce it will be worth more than 3'ou
bid for it."
"Remarkable watch," cries Jingle, "re
markable history lady eloped notorious
scandal thought she eloped with German
baron no baron at all only a footman
hadn't a cent everything sold watch
pawned curious story very."
"Gentlemen," says Mr. Pickwick, "here is
a lady's laco pin; star and crescent; nine
diamonds; worth $150."
"Formerly property of n.atiio Blackford,"
saj-s Jingle "daughter of Philadelphia par
son went to Russia called herself Fanny
Lear not grand duke grand duke all broko
up robbed grandmother's shrine gave
stolen diamonds to Fanny Russian police
bounced her fled to Paris went broko
sold this lace pin odd creature very."
"Worth 150." says Mr. Pickwick. ""Who
bids for Fanny Lear's lace pin ? Ten dollars?
Thank 30U, sir. Quarter, quarter, quarter
shall 1 make it?"
"Here is a Tissot watch," says tho revolu
tionist. "Smash it with a hammer. Screws
are solid gohL Tear 'em to pieces; rip 'era
up; pulverize 'em; and a pawnbroker will
lend you 7o on the fragments. What's the
bid? Six dollars? Why, th9 glass is worth
more."
"Watch belouged to Bearded Lady," says
Jingle. "Great attraction dime museum
manager presented watch token of esteem
envious rival took scissors approached
Bearded Lady in bed cut off beard never
grew again Bearded Lady busted manager
tired her out presented another watch to
envious rival sad calamity very."
Mr. Pickwick got rather jealous of Jingle's
tales. lie even attempted to spiu a yarn or
two of his own. Ho tried to pass off a gold
headed cane as "Tascott's cane." But the
crow d jeered, tho professionals laughed and
the Newfoundland dog gave an ominous lit
tle growL They wauted the original Scho
herczade, tho authorized teller of tales, or
nobody.
In "The Raspickeref Paris" that famous
old play of Fejix Pyat, the communist the
ragpicker sorts out bis bag and nnus a surea
nf sentiment or humor in every rag. This
bit of lace was worn bv the belle of the ball.
that scrap of calico came from a shirt that
was made bv a starving mother beside tho
cot of a dying child. So in this pawn
broker's sale every article had its history.
Jingle, tho romancer, knew nothing about
tbem. The opera glasses ia mother-of-pearl
that lie at his side could tell of the night
when he and she went for the first time
together to the theatre; how she had no eyes
for anything but the stage, and he had no
eyes for anything but her; and how the
opera glasses, having the gift of observation.
surmised from her behavior that the engage
ment subsequently camo to nothing. This
ring could tell of a betrothal of which the
parents hoped so much; that ring could tell
of a marriage which ended in strife and
separation.
Gravely rose the Newfoundland do;
gravely he shook his head ; gravely he walked
aw ay. Dimly it dawned upon his canine in
telligence that this auction was an epitome
of human life. And still Mr. Jingle went on
with his idle fairy tales and Mr. Pickwick
kept musically asking: "Quarter, quarter,
quarter, shall I make it?" Chicago Tribune.
As education increases and civilization ad
vances, the luxuries of the present become
the necessities of the succeeding age.

Trade of Professional Dlrcetor.
There is a lucrative, if not very extensive,
trade in this city that 1 have never seen de
scribed iu print. This is the trade of tho
professional director. All stock corporations
are governed by boards of directors, as
everybody knows. These directors serve
without llsocl salaries, but by no means with
out compensation. An allowance in cash is
maile to each director for his attendance at
a board meeting, tho amount varying accord
ing to the company he serves and coming out
of the expense fund. In some cases a more
or less elaborate lunch is throwu in. All
railroads, bauks, steamship and trust com
panies observe tho rule of paying a director
something tor his service. The only require
ment is that the meeting shall be a business
one. ir there is no quorum there is no reo.
But it is a peculiarity of board meetings that
it very rarely happens that a quorum does
not assemble. The directors, with that fine
oya to business that characterizes the average
Gnancier, are pretty certain to sec to it that
they earn their fees, especially as the meet
ings are generally short ones and held quite
convenient to the down town offices, so that
no considerable amount of time is wasted in
attending them. Alfred Trumblo in New

Kaflirland'rf Fantastic Cradle.
One would hardly go to Katlirland for a
f:uita.stio cradle, and one almost as queer
lis it is fantastic, at that. Yet he would
fiud such a one there. The Kaffir baby, when
he comes into the world, is put into a cradle
or baft made of antelope skin, with tho hair
on. The baby castle, narrow toward tho
bottom, widens to within a few inches of the
opening, when it again suddenly contracts.
The hair is turned inward, giving the young
Kaflir as soft a bed as some found in tho
cradles of royalty. Four long strips of ante
lope skin are attached to tho cradle, and en
able the mother to swing it on her back after
a peculiar fashion. Drake's Magazine.
A Curious Freak of Nature.
There is at Ixine Pine, Inyo county, a rock
that might be easily passed off for a petrified
elephant. A photograph of the rock shows
as like as possible to tho photograph of au
elephant. The trunk, the eyes, the head and
body are all as well formed in the photograph
as if the camera had been turned to a living
animal. The wrinkles and folds in the skiu
of an elephant and the color are all repeated
in the rock. The symmetry and proportions
of the living animal are reproduced in this
remarkable freak of nature. independence

IJon't Italse Fainting Persons.
The common practice of raising fainting
persons to a sitting or upright position is
often surucient to destroy tne spans or uie
which remains. Tho death of an eminent
English statesman a short time ago gave op
portunity to the coroner for emphasizing
this fact, and of pointing out bow much
more reasonable and sound it is to keep such
persons in tho prone position, while restora
tives and local means are adopted to enable
them, if possible, to regain consciousness.

SOMETHING OF INTEREST.
To Tho People of Cass and Adioin
joining Counties
I clef: ire to say a few words to tlio peo
ple at largo in regard the breeding of
horses. Having myself, for tlio la. t :;."
years been engaged in that business. In
lieving that I an. competent to give a
fair, unbiased opinion of the best brooders-.
I drove the stallion, Little lirof-olies.
who took the 1st premium at tlio liiht
fair eyor ln M in Dos Moines, Ia. I a-:
owned and bred the stallion. Cap Walk
er, who was (ho fust horse to take a
premium in Cass county and have always
been handling horses for breeding pur
poses. I have handled and bred Print
ers, Morgans, Copper IJottonis. liashi u-;.
llaniiltoniaiis, Clydesdales, Xornioiis and
others. I have bought ami brought to
Cass county, a largo number of horses
even before the 15. & M. li. II. bad a rail
here and among them were a Printer
Stallion, a Copper IJottom Stallion, four
Norman Stallions, four Clydesdale Stal
lions and others and have bred all those
horses at dilfcront times. I have boi 11
on the horse market for 20 years and am
by this time, certainly competent to
know what horse or breed of horses will
bring the most money in this or any
other market and which arc the
most valuable to stock raisers
my opiniou is that the Clydesdale and
Norman are worth more money to the
breeders and it is based upon this faot.
that a three year old Norman or Clyds
dale draft horse is worth and can be sold
in market for 140 to 200 and tho snrd-
ler horses at the sa.nc age will not pos- j
sibly bring over JT-'J. j
I have said this much for the benefit I
j of breeders and in explanation, and I
further desire to say that we have now at
our stabk-s in Plattsmouth two Clydos- J
! dale and one Norman horses Lrood clean
