The Cass County fair begins next Mon day and every one should make their entries this week that have anything to exibit. F. G. Simmons the accomplished and genial editor of the Seward Reporter was in the citv today in his new role as dep uty revenue collector. The rain of yesterday was one of the season, it began falling at an early hour before daylight and kept it up at steady pace till nearly noon. The democratic central committee and candidates will meet at Louisville on Friday of this week to organize a fight on the grand old party. Fred Gorder was up to the state fair last week and predicts that there will be a much finer exhibition of Nebraska products than has ever been shown be fore. Percent of attenderce for the entire schools of the city was 17.2 there being no tardy cases in the high school build ing and none its the first ward for the week just ended. Moses Hiatt of Beaver City, after a residence of four years, has returned to Plattsmouth, his first love; having lived in Cass county for 27 years he speaks by the card when he says there is nothing better than old Cass. The county alliance, winch is com posed of delegates from all the subordi nate lodges in the city, met in Weeping Water Saturday, it being their regular quarterly meeting, and transacted con siderable business pertaining to the best interests of the organization. Dr. Waterman one of Cass County's old time best citizens came in yesterday morning from his home at Ilaysprings. He is the guest of his brother in law Judge Ramsy. The Dr. reports a short corn crop though he 6ays the wheat on Pine Ridge threshes out from 40 to 50 bushels per acre which is indeed a won derful showing. Judge Sullivan came in last evening from Wichita, Kansas. The Judge ex pressed himself as greatly surprised at the action of the democratic convention at Wabash ;from the condition of things, the judge said, he had been led to believe that the Wabash convention would simply endorse the republican ticket and then adjourn. He appeared somewhat impatient at the lack of good judgment exercised by his democratic friends. A delightful high flye party was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. II. E, Pal mer Saturday evening, the guests were Miss Amy Barker, of Omaha, Maggie Vallery, Lula Burges, Kittie Cummins and Mess Frank .Weeks of Omaha, Guy and Stuirt Livingston; Charley Vallery and Charles Murphy. As a hos tess Mrs. Palmer has no superior in the city, and the guests of last evening were short of adjectives in which to describe the splendid and enjoyable time thoy had.

Gess of Bellevue; Treasurer Chris Hartman of Omaha; Secretary Geo. V. Ilall of Lincoln; Chaplain Fred Harris of Grisswald la.; Historian P. C. Richards of Lincoln. The outlook for a big time at the Novem- f ber reunion in Plattsmouth, Mr. n. C. McMaken informs us is very good; he hat received a letter from Gen.Lew Wal lace in which he agrees to be present if his health will permit. Today Judge Chapman heard the ap- pliCHt'on for a writ of Mandamus to compel Plattsmouth city to pay or levy a tax to pay the judgment of Henry Boeck recently recovered against the city on account of damage done to his brick business house on main street caused by the construction of the sewer in the alley wav in the rear of his building.

They had a mishap yesterday and broke a wagon wheel but thev are all readv for business again w this mornsng.

In company with some friends she writes they have just visited many points of interest in Switzerland by means of a Tally ho coach and will soon make a tour through Itally after which she will settle down to her studies at Dresden. In police court today Frank Doll was mulcted to the tune of $5 and the usual trimmings, for a plain drunk with no frills; in default of the cash Mr. Doll will languish for a few days in the bastile where he will be giyen an oppor tunity to sober up and philosophize on the whichness and whatsoeverness of mankind in general, and Judge Archer in particular.

The careful and business like management of the company has not only made it a help to the city but it has been a source of profit to its stockholders, neuralgia cause mud Inaanityi Ths highest medical authorities of Europe and America har recently decided that a large percent age of cimi of insanity is caused by the excruumtmg pains of Neuralgia of the head and face.

Allen Beeson and his son Jake were riding home this forenoon at a lively gait in the Beeson spring wagon near the grade they suddenly halted by the king bolt breaking off, which with out any warning dropped the front end of the wagon bed to the ground and allowed the horse and two front wheels to go on. Jake discovered that he could strike a very hard lick with his head and not in any wise hurt the ground. Mr. Beeson forgot all about the dignity belonging to an honored member of the bar, and also tried sue cessfully to stand on his head, though without any serious result except a slight iar. A new king bolt and a mended spring will fix all up as good as new. C. F. Smith of this citv stives up his tailoring business and enters the minis-try. having just reeiyed an appointment from the West Nebraska conference for Spring View, Keyapaha connty. The Herald hopes he may have the success which his kindly demeanor and gentlemanly bear ing would seem to indicate as his deserts Andy Taylor unloaded a car load of barrels this morning preparatory to tak ing care of his apple crop. He will mar ket from twelve to fifteen hundred bush els of as nice an assortment as can be found in the west, Peter Bates is now working his force on the fifth house for Henry Shafer.

Young Claiborne, the good looking fat boy that drives the delivery wagon about the city for the express company, has been carrvinsr a revolver to keek off the ferocious Indians and cowboys ever since he began on his present job a few weeks ago. He carries the revolver in his trousers pocket, and as he went to sit down at the Perkins house last night, people were startled at the loud report of a gun. and the ugly hole in the ceiliag of thej room which followed it, Clai borne nearly fainted from fright, but on a close examination it was found that he had not been touched though the gun had torn quite a hole in his trousers; the hammer must have struck the chair which made all the trouble. Claiborne will kill Indians with clubs hereafter as the revolver is too dangerous. " " An 1 81 2 Pensioner. James S, Mathews made application on the 28th day of May for a pension for Jane Charlton of Union, who is a widow of Abraham Charlton, a hero of the war of 1812, Today Mr. Mathews gets word that Mrs. Charlton's pension is allowed and that back pay at the rate of $S per month from March 9th 1S77 to March 19 1886, and since the last date at the rate ef $12 per month. This will giye Mrs Charlton about $1,400 pack pay and a comfortable living from now on. The County Fair. Farmers should remember that if they buy a family ticket they can bring out the whole family, and at the same time they can enter for exhibition anything they have frm a white mouse to a herd of cattle without any expense. The pre miums are large and will well repay the effort to obtain them. Let's have a fair that will be a credit to the county. The horse show will be one of the largest ever seen in the state. Sold Out. Harry Race haa sold his opinions if he had any, to the peoples party we under stand, and has purchased a new press with which, he will he! p defeat the re publican ticket this fall. We always held Harry in higher esteem, and sap posed he was a republican from princi ple; but the proposed somersault of the Eagle looks like politics for revenue, to a man up a tree. We trust our informa tion is ill founded and anxiously await the appearance of the Eagle. Eli Sampson purchased the old Fair field place some time ago and is now filling in around the basement until it doesn't look like the same house. It will be a handsome corner whea the week is all completed. "A BICE WITH DEATH ! Among the nameless heroes, none are more worthy of martyrdom than he who rode down the valley of the Conemaugh, warning the people ahead of the Johns town flood. Mounted on a powerful horse, faster and faster went the rider, but the flood was swiftly gaining, until it caught the unlucky "horseman and swept on, grinding, crushing, annihila ting both weak and strong. In the same way is disease lurking near, like unto the sword of Damocles, ready to fall, without warning, on Its victim, who allows his system to be come clogged up, and his blood poi soned, ancf thereby his health endan gered. To eradicate these poisons from the system, no matter what their name or nature, and save yourself a spell of malarial, typhoid or bilious fever, or eruptions, swellings, tumors and kin dred disfigurements, keep the liver and kidneys healthy and vigorous, by the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Metrical Dis covery. It's the only plood-purifler sold on trial. Your money Is returned if it doesn't do exactly as recommended. A concentrated vegetable extract. Sold by druggists, In large bottles, at $1.00. HESSER'S SPLENDID SHOW, The Finest Exhibit of Decorative Plants Ever Shown att.-.e Fair. Lincoln Journal. Who ever heard of a Nebraska state fair without W. J. Hesser, the Platts -mouth florist and fruit grower? As sure as the fair comes arouud Mr. Hesser is there with a fine display of greenhouse products. This year he lias fairly ou' done his former efforts and has present ed the finest collection of decorative plants ever shown iu the state. His dis play of palms, dracaenus aud other pop ular vurities is tho best ever seen in th west and commands the admiration eyen of rival florists. He has over forty dif ferent varieties of palms. Every visitor is invited to inspect his display carefully, and to those who admire nature's eccen tricities revealed in her foliage and floral creations a rare opportunity is afforded for advantageous purchase. Mr. Hesser is well known in every part of the stnte to patrons of the greenhouse and will cheerfully give all desired information in relation to his plants.

Marshall Archer was out today on the street exercising three of his jail birds haying thein sweep and clean up. Ed Threlkeld is rushed with business since he came up the street. He will set out a lunch or a short order meal how ever to suit the most fastidious. Johnny Fitzpatrick had quite a time arresting a doublefisted six footer yester day morning; he knocked his man down, but when he got back at him with a coupling pin, Johnny got his gun and made him hold up his hands, when he marched him off to jail. A freight conductor informed us this morning that the B. & M had unloaded one mile of freight cars at the state fair grounds besides what had come in off of other roads. The exhibit ought to be a good one.
