The report of commissioners, Eiken bary, Doud and Murray, in the assign ment of dower in the estate of Shadrach Colo deceased, gives eighty-nine acres which iucludis the orchard aud buildings to the widow as hers in fee. F. W. Meyers, who works under fore man Slick iu the plan'ng mill, will get a ten day lay-off Iwcanse he stopped work yesterday and worked at the polls. Mr. Slack must be a man of rather small cali ber to engage in that kind of retribution. S. E. Auchers, of Gordon, Sheridan county, Nebraska, is in the city today. He says he counted thirty-six teams sow ing wheat in February in full view from Qordon, that all their small grain was sown in Febuary and is doing well.

Th" county commissioners began their monthly session yesterday, spending most of the day looking over the bids for the construction of the Louisville bridge. The contract was finally awaid cd to C U.

Fred Gurder, jr however, was yes terday elected a member of the council st Weeping Water, a position seldom filled i ,n that city by a democrat. Uncle i Fred had better get some pointers from the boy. Mayor Richey is re-elected without having made a single pledge to any in dividual. This fact ia a further guaran tee of good government, if one were needed. M. B. Murphy has been one of the most active, energetic men in the city cootf cil, and we are sadly mistaken if he will not be greatly missed, not only by his ward but by the entire city. Lafe O'Neill and J. L. Minor are a pair tbats hard to down, but the com bination in the fifth commanded by such men as Harry Coolidgo, L. A. New comer and others, vaa put up for a win ner, and winners they were. W. L. Browne, in the second, will make a good councilman.

They want gd horses and will py what they are worth. Farmers who want price or any further particulars may inquire of W. D. Jones, at the Bonner Btables. The Bonds Unanimous. Only eight votes were registered yes terday against the bond proposition which means so much for Plattsmouth. Practically this is a unanimous decision. Mr. J. F Masters, Cashier of Emmitt & Co's Bank at Waveriy, Ohio, says: "I consider Chamberlain's Cough Remedy the rx-st I haye eyer used. After using several other kinds, without benefit.

The election yeBterday was not so much a republican victory, as it was a victory fur clean government, by tbo peo ple regardless of party affiliations.

Health Better Than wealth. The above Hdvice appeals to all per sons, especially to those who to all out ward appearances seem hale and hearty, but on whom the impression is daily made that their health is not what it should be. Many ailments that may be relieved for a fchort period, only to appear again are as certain iu time to undermine the health, as a break in the levee of the Mis sissippi riyer, which b hardly seen at first, daily enlarges with the pressure of the wattera, and at length lets in a raging flood.. To guard against or to remove disease is the one and most important thing to remember in health or sickness. To know whom to aduise with should be our foremost duty, many do .but the public at large should demand and re ceive good medical advice for the pres ervation ef health.

Several years ago when Dr. Armstrong, of Park Hill, Platte county, waaplowiiiK his fields le was strangely impressed that hia farm should be devoted to an orphan age. He then and there decided to do nate the valuable property for that worthy object." His daughter, Miss Lena Armstrong, now in India was then study ing medicine in Philadelphia. Upon her return, during the vacation she brought several orphan boys with her. The doc tor welcomed thorn to his home nnd has since, with a faithful guardians regard, cared for his new wards. Being advanc ed in years, be realized that soon some one else must bear the responsibility. Advising with Mrs. Isabel 8purlock,of Plattsmouth, and Mrs. Angie Newman, of Lincoln, he offered bit property to the Women's Home Missionary society of the M. E. church. The following year Mrs. M. E. Roberts again offered the property urging acceptance. Last No vember, Mrs. Warner, of York, and Rev. M. Hiltner, pastor of the church there accompanied by Dr. Armstrong, attended the annual meeting in Indianapolis, and j there urged that the national Orphanage be located at York, pledging $10,000 in cluding Dr. Armstrongs farm. Mrs. Clark. Cincinnati, treasurer of the society, and Mrs. Aitkin, secretary, hav ing already visited Nebraska aud being much pleased with the climate and en terprise of the people, urged its location. Last week Mrs. Clark came on from Cincinnati and located the orphanage at York. She bought a farm containing 160 acres, all fenced. There is on this land a young orchard, house nnarly new, containing twelye rooms, seven closets, bath room, store room, etc. Alio a barn arranged for thirty cows and the horses in use, a milk room with cold water vats and refrigerators, house for the poultry, corn cribs, windmill with one large tank near the house another by the barn. The property is valued at $12,000 and is nil paid for by citizens of York except $3 500, the value of Dr. Armstrong's farm. The citizens of York also gave oOO more and this with the 600 generously donated by Mrs. C'ark, will enable the society to open the orphanage very soon. Boys as well as girls will be admitted.
