Jake were riding home this forenoon at
a lively gait in the Beeson spring wagon

and allowed the horse and two front
wheels to go on. Jake discovered that

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

spring will fix all up as good as new.

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.

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

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. He has palms
for sale at from 20 cents to $30 each.

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
