tract for the 100 mile cxtcntion of the lb
A M. in Dakota and Wyoming, is said to
have underbid h;s chief opponent in the

much better than jhe same grade and

about 8 o'clock. The party got off the
train at 7 o'clock and in company
with Col. Connor looked over main
street and paid a visit to the Hotel Riley
which Mr. Perkins pronounced the
finest and best arranged west of the Mis
souri River. Mr. Harris was surprised
and greatly pleased at the solid city like
appearance which greeted him, in strong
contrast to the old rickety frame built
town he had known years ago when he
was cashier of the land department for
the B. & M. at Lincoln. The party was
starting out for a tour of the entire lines
and remained here over night to look
thoroughly over their varied interests.
The Herald reporter in a conver-ation

lead to believe that while they were look

building that nothing would be done for
a while in that direction.

HOMES FOR THE PEOPLE.
South Park, O.Neil.s, Wise's Addition
and Porter Place. Busy with
Building.
The IIkkald reporter, having heard
fabulous stories about the: number ol new
residences being built and contracted for
in the south part of the city, took a hasty
ive this morning, to see tor himselt
what was going on. We etarted south
on (ith street in company with Mr.
Knotts, and after going a block west at
the end of ;ih, arrived at tho edge of
IJillingstown, where we found two nice
new cottages nearly completed. A little
farther on, with south fronts, we noticed
the three handsome cottages of C. E.
Wescott's recently completed; farther on
was a substantial brick, built and owned
by J. V. Week bach. Engineer Hilton
has a sightly place farther to the east
whe- e he is erecting a well planned $2,-
000 residence.
On Patterson avenu'J in South Park, a
very sightly street by the way, we noticed
the well built cottage of M. M. Beals; at
No. 1014, on the same streit, Mr. Hall,
the tinner, has put up a large two story
house that adds to the appearance of that
part of towu. '
John Tutt had caught tho prevailing
spirit of improvement that surrounded
him and put a new roof on his handsome
brick resideuci.i. South of the school
house we noti ed an excayatiou just be
gun and further east, surrounded by a
tasty picket fence, R. B Windham is
completing a m at cottage with brick
basement. Starling southwest on the
avenue leading to the fair grounds, we
noticed at No. 1415 a well built cottage.
The finest residence, however, in Sou'h
Park suburbs, will be th ic of Mr. Ed
Oliver. Mr. Oli vtr has extensive grounds
of beautiful Woodland, situated on a
comniMnding location on which he is
erecting a $.",000 brick residence that
would be a credit to Omaha or Lincoln.
Mr. Oliver is to be congratulated on his
good Uste and public spirit. Platts
mouth contains a few wealthy men that
a dugout wou'd be too expensive for,
but Ed is not one of that kind, he spends
his money wlnre he makes it. South
and east of South Park we counted si :
new houses iu the course of completion,
some of them being ycry good ones.
moo nil 1:".22 -e crood cottsges
on the avenue south of the shops. Just
south of the old brick residence where
the avenue intercepts the old road, four
new houses are nearly complete; further
north the carpenteis were busy putting
up a new house for Grctn Coffman,
the engineer.
Bach's grocery store, on the avenue near
tho south end of the shop yards, is about
completed. Timothy Clark has built
two good h.-'us.'s and is building two
more, having already sold the first two;
if some of our 2 per cent sharks would
om.iLfn ATr fMnrlc our town Would be
better off; Mr. Clark builds and pays for
his houses, then sells them to parties on
monthly payments cf $ 20 with interest at
8 per cent, a most fair and easy manner
for one to buy property.
South and east of the shops ore Wise's
and Oneill"s additions where we counted
four new houses, while we were informed
that in Porter place near the fair grounds
contracts has been let for the construc
tion of eight houses, some of which are
nearinr completion. This would make
o
forty-three houses completed or under
wav at the present time, and work for the
summer is scarcely begun. V erily l iatts
mouth is a hummer. We will look- over
tko nrlipr imrts of the citv at another
time.
Enjoined.
Mathew Gering on behalf of J . G.
Oldham and others has enjoined James
Allison, James L'gnier and James Chal-
fan': trustees of the Lewiston M. E,
Church, located about four miles north
east of Union, from closing the church
doors against a non-sectarian Sunday
School, which has recently been organiz-
ed there.
Intense feeling prevails in the neigh
borhood, as every body takes sides
The trial at the next term of the District
Court will be red hot unless, the judge
sees proper to dissolye the injunction on
affidavits.
The Boys' Branch.
The boys branch of the Y. M. C. A
were given a reception last evening by
Mrs. P. G. Reynard, and a . grand time
which wide awake boys can thoroughly
appreciate was bad. Foity-five of the
voun Americans partook of ice cream
and cake with that contagious zeal pecu
liar to hungry boys. The singing of the
association and mannerly actions of the
voung fellows showed the good training
they had enjoyed. We are inclined to
the opinion that more real good is ac
complished by interesting and starting
out the boys aright than in any other
way.
The boys repaired to their homes about
10 o'clock, vowing mat Mrs. iteynarci
was the nicest lady in tue cuy.

Washington, May 5. Senator Beck
of Kentucky died at the Pennsylvania
railroad station in this city a little alter
4 o'clock Saturday afternoon. He was
accompanying his daughter and was
about to take the train for Fortress Mon-

had just reached the gate at which pas-
Bengers show their tickets when lie reii
to the platform, with tb woids: "I am
dizzy." His daughter, Mrs Coodloe, the
wife of Paymaster u-oouioe, or me ma
rine corps, fell prostrate and almost un
conscious at his side with a moaning cry:
"Oh, father." The porter, who was car
rying the heavier baggage, raised the
head of the stricken senator, and imme
diately sturdy porters carried the pros
trate and apparently inanimate form to
the room cf the depot master. A gen
tleman who was standing at his side as
he fell, says that Mr. Beck had hardly
reached the platform when his face
turned blue and black, and he seemed tc
bo suffocated.
Several physic ians were soon in at
tendance. One arrived before life w-a&
extinct, and endeavored to administer
some restorative; but it was too late.
The fatal attack of heart disease so long
expected had come. Even as the physi
cian was endeavoring to apply the medi
cine life took its flight. The news spread
quickly by telephone to the Capitol.
Senator Berry of Arkansas, who lives at
an adjacent hotel, was one of the first to
reach tiie depot, but his friend was dead.
Others came soon afterward, among
them members of the Kentucky con
gressional delegation, who took charge
of the l.-od v.
Mr. Beck had not performed active
service in the senate for more than a
year. About that time he fell ill with
premonitory symptoms of the. disease
which caused his death.
The Funeral Arrangement.
Washington, May 5. Arrangements
for Senator Back's funeral are nearly
completed. The formal announcement
of his death will be made in the seualt
by Senator Blackburn to-day, and the
senate will at once adjourn and on Tues
day the funeral servi ces will be held in
the senate chamber. This being sus
pension day in the house, Mr. Carlisle
will not formally Minmince the death of
Senator Beck, until after consultation
with Sieaker Reed, and so it is probable
the house will not adjourn until late in
the afternoon. After the funeral ser
vices on Tuesday the Senator's remains
will be taken over the Chesapeake and
Ohio road to Lexington, Ky., where the
funeral will take place on Thursday.
All the Kentucky delegation in congress
will accompany the remains to Lexing
ton and attend the funeral there. The
following named gentlemen, intimate
friends of the dead senator, have been
selected by the family as pall bearers,
and will also go to Lexington: Ex-Congressman
Trimble, ex-Congressman Phil
D. Thompson and O. O. Stealy and R.
C. YVintersniith of Kentucky, L. Q.
Washington and Wri. R. Smith.
Senator Beck's remains will be taken
to the Capitol this afternoon and, sur
rounded by a guard of honor of senate
officials, will lie in state in the senate
corridor until Tuesday noon. The body
will then be taken into the senate cham
ber, where, at 1 o'clock the obsequies
will be held. Senator Blackburn will
deliver an oration.
Dr. Cronin Interred.
Chicago, May 5. All that is mortal

vear ago Saturday night was lured tc

miiis, cspccinlly to those who to all out
ward appearances sei-m h de mill 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 short period, only t appear again
are as certain in time to undermine tho
health, as a break in the levee of the Mis
sissippi river, which is handy seen at first,
daily enlarges with the pressure of the
waters, and at length lets in a raging
flood.
To guard against, or tn remove disease
is the one and most important thing to
remember in health or sicknesH.
To know whom to aduise with should
be our foremost duty, in my do .but tho
public at large should demand and ie -
ceive good medical advice for the pres
ervation of health.

Advice of a Prominent Land Broke r
Rheumatic Syrup Co., J aclisrm, iJirh:
Gknts: In February, 18'., I com
ir.enced using Hibbard's Kheumatic Syrup
and Strengthening Plasters for inflam
matory rheumatism, having lx;en troubled
three years with this tenible disease. My
joints were swolen so that I could hardly
walk and I attended to my business with
difficulty. I used three bottles and ap
plied the plasters to my limbs and back,
and I can say that I am now cured. I
have not been troubled with rheumatisji
since discontinuing its use. My father-in-law,
Mr. J. D. Skinner, of Manson, has al
so been hunctitted by this medicine. Wo
earnestly r.-commend it to our friends.
Tske my advice, give it a trial.
