It was irrigated !nd is very lrtty, we have some of it at thdlKRAi.u office. ' ' -Senator Thomas returned to his legU latiV duties this morning. And right Lere it may not he out of place to say that Mr. Thomas rauka high as an active, l.nr.l Ytr.irW'm.r member. He devotes h:s time exclusively to t-tate affairs and it better posted on the condition of legis lation than any of the sleek tongued members who pose as a statesman. Several have enquired who the man Tatam, of Yokohoma, Japan, was that owned property in Plattsmouth. Judge O'Donohoe says that he knew Tatam quite well and sold him the property which he now owns over in the Fourth ward. He eays that Tatam was a resi dent of this city several years ago and that he is related to John Leesley and to Mr. Alli, of this city. Frank Young sr. lost his pocketbook today on the street containing f 12 in cash and some valnable papers. This keing the first of the month, the chances are that the fellow who found it has been so importuned by the bill collectors that he will borrow it to pay his ac counts. Later Since writing the above Mr. Young 1ms recovered his book and money. It was found by a Plattsmouth gentleman and returned to him. County Court.

The legislature is having an effect on the shops here. The company is reefing its sails to be ready for the storm. The " cent fare and maximum first rate is causing the managers of Nebraska roads to cut off every possible expense and stop every improvement. This time ti.,. ulions were crowded with uew'work; now it is nothing but neces sary repairs Ji,a Johnst.i., one of Cass county's best farmers, is in the city today.

Friends of the family envited. II. P. Sundell. one of our best citizens started this morning with his family for Burt county. Mr. Sundell owns a farm there which they expect to improve and in doinir so will enjoy the pleasures and profits of farm life. The IIuuald goes with Mr. Sundell to keep him posted on matters of interest in old Casf. A telegram from Aurora, 111., says: "Over 400 men haye been discharged by the C. B. & Q,. car and locomotive shops here. The laboratory has been practically abandoned and the working force at the shops reduced fully 00 per cent. This is the biggest cut made by the company since 1876. Uncle Robert lletteer reside with his son-in-law. Peter Eveland, out in the western part of the county. He said he drove two miles to their station on the Rock Island this morning, boarded the train. for South Bend, arriving there in time to catch the Schuyler which put him in Plattsmouth in time for a late breakfast. He can't see why people want to change the county seat for any out of the way village, and he ret used to sign the petition much to the disgust of some of his neighbors. Wm. A. Linch of Greenwood, one of Cass county's early settlers, has just re turned from the sunny south. He pur chased 1.S00 acres of land in Alabama und is arranging to move his f.'.nnly lown there- as soon as possible. The success which P. P. Johnson of Red Oak has been making down there bids fair to take all his acquaintances to that coun try. Mr. Linch thinks he has a tortune within his grasp and wc trust that lie has.

Dovey went outback of the store and was greatly surprised to run onto a wagon and team in the alley. He stopped, and noticed two tellows piling wood into the wagon from Mur phy's wood pile on bne side and Doyey's on the other. H. N , in a commanding tone of voice calculated to strike terror to the hearts of evildoers, demanded what thev were doing! They jumped onto the wagon; ome of them picked up a stick of stoye wood and raised it, as he said, "don't you squeal." In the meantime the other fellow got hold ot the lines, and the way that team flew through the alley and south on ilurd street was a caution. Horatio did not oueal until they were safely out of sight; then he got hot and thirsted for gore, but it was too late. At l ist ac counts the thieveshad not been captured. A Lizard in His Stomach, The following special telegram to the Bee was sent from Chicago yesterday and is evidently not intended as a fake but as a fact. Water drinkers need not be alarmed, if they will drink from a glass or a cup, it is not intended as a fright for prohibitionists. The telegram is :.s follows: ...r.,r Mrrli A dark crecn ; ..1 three and one-half inches long. wled out of Michael Daly's stomach today.

Then he consulted a doctor and vas told to drink nothing but suit water for twenty-four hours. He also ate two or three pounds of salt pork.
