Tiie company re mained till a late hour, and were hand eomely entertained with refreshments and games of various kinds. Yesterday was the first of the year 5(151 with the Jewish church all over the world. While the Jewish people recog nize the fact that the earth is much older than that,and that thi is but a mythical calculation of time, bo far as the crea tion ot tne world is concerned, yet as a recognition of the creative power of God and as a convenience in keeping church history properly recorded, they still ob serve the festival of the religious new year.

Their places of business in this city are closed up in memory of the new year.

Last night the sheriff went out and arrested him at Gillespies, about five miler from Risers, and by a little persuasion he got Propst to think that it might not go so hard with him if he gave up the money which it was suppos ed he had taken; he finally weakened and went with the sheriff to an old corn crib and fished out $153 which was all he had left of the amount taken. He was brought in and landed in the connty jail where he awaits a preliminary exami nation. The "Herald man" made a pleasant trip to Weeping Water, Saturday.

Weeping Water is very quiet, yet we saw several signB of prosperity and evidence of public spirit abounded on all sides. John Chase, Weeping Water's "Mascot" has just erected two beautiful Btore rooms and has two more nearly completed. The Post Office has been moved up on Main street on the south side in one of the Chase rooms, and if it is not the neatest office in the state, it is the neat est we have seen. The boxes are all of the newest patterns and best finish. A door at the rear of the room passes on into a hall which reaches two commodi- us rooms at the rear of the office, which will be used by Dr. Butler, the Post Master, as his private office. Everything is bran new, neat and clean, except a tough locking desk in the lobby, which Doc keeps as a relic of the democratic administration Judge Chapman went to Lincoln this morning, where he will today open the September term of the Lancaster county district court.

Claus Breckenfeld and family came home this Morning after a delightful trip to Cedar Creek, where in company with the ever good natured Fred Shroe- der and family, together with some'f riends from abroad, they had picnicked in the Cedar Creek woods, and by the way more rocky, picturesque romantic glens do not exist in Cass county than can be found at Cedar Creek. A jolly five o'clock tea party was held at the home of Miss Jennie Copeland on Third street, south of Main, Saturday eve ning last, the occasion being the birth day of the fair hostess.

The executive committee, upon whom large ly devolves the management of the cam paign, is C. D. Clapp of Elm wood, Geo. Copeland of this city, Geo. Edson of Rock Bluffs and Turner Zink. The com mittee, together with the candidates present, gave a very good report of the outlook for success in November. The executiye committee will meet in Weep ing Water next Saturday at 2 o'clock. Bird Critchfield started out on a cam paign tour Saturday and when he got overloaded with oyster soup he felt mus ically inclined, and while John Davies and "ye local" were willing to render a few operatic airs in dulcet tones that would fairly bring tears to the rockfi, still Critchfield seemed uneasy and dis satisfied; finally a 16th century music box was discoverd at a resturant and Bird's face lightened up at once, on learning it could be purchased for $10, a bargain was made and Bird now enter tains his friends with "Auld Lang Syne" and kindred pieces which he assures his friends gleefully is something rare and new.
