Iiarnum & Son. The big show to-night takes place it Sam Atwood's barn under the auspices or the kids. Ihe admis sion price is one cent, or an equiva lent in trade. The entertainment will be of a minstrel nature. A stray bolt of lighting shattered l tree near Holmes barn on V me street night before last, the report of which was heard all over the city. yet the boys sleeping in the barn a0 et away were not wakening and knew nothing of it until the next morning. The barbers of this city have tackled the printers for a game of baseball and you can bet your last dollar they can be accommodated. The game will be a dafsy, and the day will be fixed f;ras early a date as is convenient for all parties. The "shavers" aint in it, as we will prove later . A prominent grain merchant of this cit- was introduced by a min ister yesterday to his friends as a "Mr. . a Hebrew clothing merchant." Jixplanations hastily followed, but there still rankles in the bosom of the corn .king a lin gering suspicion that somebody was xutting up a job on him. as he couldn't see the resemblance. It is reported that Paul Yander voort and Judge Dwyer are having quite a correspondence just now what it will result in, is difficult to prognosticate. We would not be surprised however if the milly Yandervoort succeeded in getting Dwyer into the independent party. The Judge is painfully disgusted over the Boyd veto of the peoples measure, and may attempt to pun ish the demorcatic party for not openly disonwing and condeming the governor. We await the Judges action in the premises with much tre pidatioti, and shall endeavor to keep our readers posted as to his actions. AR BO Ft DAY. It is Fittingly Cele !jr;.t i ly All the Schools of the City. lJie legislature two years ago made the 22tid of April a legal holi day and named it Arbor Day. that it might be utilized by all Nebrnskaus as a rlay to be especially devoted to tree planting. Our public schools have for some years taken notice of the dar an added very materially to the beauty of the school grounds in the city by the planting of trees; but this year the exercises were more elaborate. At the high school the pupils at Mrs. Halsey's, Miss Wilson's am Miss Searles' rooms were taken to the high school room where Pro fessor Halsey's and Mrs. McCIel- I l;inl's classes united with them in rendering a very pleasant program The first number was a song euti tied "W elcomeo Arbor Day," by the entire school; then prayer was offered by Kev. A. B. Buckner. An interesting essay was then read on "Necessity for Tree Planting," by Myrtle Levings, which was followed by an exceedingly pretty vocal duet by Flora and Anna Bibby. The de bate came next, on the subject: "Resolved, That lilm Trees are Preferable to Oak and Maple for Planting in the School Yard." Rob ert Ballon championed the aflirina tive, while Fmiory Buckner took care of the negative side of the pro position; several of the scholars ex pressed their views on the subject, which made it of much interest Prof. Halsey favored the schools with a violin solo. The sophomore class of the high school enacted some charades on the subject of trees, and the entire school sang a song entitled "The Tree We are Planting This Spring Daj" The school then adjourned to the cam pus, where each room planted its own tree except the high school; there each ot the lour grades were allowed to plant a tree. Mrs. Halsey's room marched out to the grounds headed by the girls carrying the banner with I. G. S, (Plattsmouth Grasimar School) em blazoned on its silken folds llie uoys lollowed, all wearing wreaths. The class colors, laven der, were liberally displayed. The scholars gathered around the fine Kim tree that had been provided for planting and after singing ap proprate songs the girls dug the pit and all the scholars in the class by turns took a hand in filling it up. The wreaths were deposited at the base of the tree and the class was dismissed for the day, it being then about 10 o'clock. The program in each of the other room in central building and at the ward schools was much the same so that a detail of the proceedings of the other schools would be largely" as rep etition of what we have given above. Many visitors were present and derived much pleasure from wit nessing the proceedings which were novel and entertaining in an emi nent degree. To-day being a legal holiday the banks and most of the public offices have been closed. An M. V. pile driver was shipped in this morning and will be used down at Theodore Buck's to build an overhead crossing for him. Mrs. IC. S. Greusel and daughter Carrie, and Miss Rose McCaulley, will see and hear the National Ma rine Band to-day at the metropolis. Frank Otto of the firm of Hatt & Otto is the happy father of a nine pound boy that arrived at his dom icile last night. Everything is probably free at the meat market to-daj " For practical economy we refer you to a clothing firm in this city where three agreeable gentlemen wait upon customers and use but one hat between them. Two of the clerks sleep in the store so that when the manager is out he knows the boj-s are in. The clerks only get out on the street when the man ager is in and gives up the partner ship hat. It is a great scheme. A Nice Entertainment The regular meeting of the Young Woman's Foreign Missionery Soci will be held at the home of Miss Margaret Davis Friday evening, April 21. at 4;la p. m., Tea served from 5:30 to 7 o'clock, after which a literary program on the mission -work in Mexico and Central Ameri ca will be given. All are cordially invited to attend. d2t Late Arrival. April 22, 1S91. Just received a fresh cargo of St. Louis Bock Beer, which will be un loading at McVey's all day (Thurs day) to-morrow. Fl HEM ENS' DAY. May 3 to be Celebrted by the Fire Boys in This City. The Fire Department met in the council chamber last night with President Skinner in the chair and Secretary C. A. Miller at the desk. A good large crowd was present and much interest was manifested in making the forth coming anni versary of the completion of the water works a success. It was May a, 1SS7, that the city held its first Celebration in honor of the new water plant that had been completed a few days before. It was a great clay for Plattsmouth, and from that date can be chroni cled a new era in the progressive history of this busy city. It was the first great work in the line of public" improvements to In completed, and nt) one regrets to day that our plant (which is the best in the state outside of Omaha) was finished and the aqua ptira turned into the ten miles of maines that honeycomb the city in all di rections. ' The fire companies at their meet ing last night after a full discus sion of the matter agreed upon the following program: Firemens' parade headed by the B. & M. band at 1 p. m. and march to grounds (Fitzgerald's Forty hav ing been selected). After that there will be a bag- ball gaie of five in nings. .Also .ai egg race; wiieei barrow race, foot race and sack race lor casii prizes. commute on general arrangements was ap pointed by the president, consist ing of Messrs. Walter Thomas, D. M. Jones, Geo. Poisall, C. A. Miller, I'rank Morgan, Wm. Smitmau, Grassman, Buttery, Newell and Xewlan. The committee on general ar rangements will meet Ihursday evening at the council chamber to appoint sub-committees and make further arrangements in detail for the celebration. In the evening a grand ball will be given at Rockwood Hall, where sociability will reign supreme and a genuine good time will be had. MURRAY BREVITIES IJY PAN'SY.
