Twin HtarH that twinkle through all time, Two iron heels that trod as one Upon the people's necks. And then we got it in our own! By gonh! dear friends, I don't like that A little hit, And Ca-sar didn't, either, Although he didn't have a Word to Hay after it was over, For obvious reasons! Hut Hrutus wasn't a patching To Springer of Illinois, Or Rogers of Arkansas; And Ciesar has something To be thankful for! I'm with you, Rome, From the I'assamaquoddy's Tumbling tide of sawlogs To where the tawny Tiber flows, And we should organize A Reed and Roman trust, And swipe the universe! Are there objections? I hear none. The ayes seem to have it! The ayes have it! Then let her go, Gallagher! But I shall never think That in that elder day To be a Roman Was greater than a speaker Of the grand old Fifty-first. And don't you forget it! That's what! ! New York Sun. From Thunddyi Daily Mrs. Bird Critchfield has gone to Weeping Water on a visit. v Samuel Kline of Union is in the city to-day. John II. Becker is in the metropo lis to-day. Eight more car loads of the Wis consin red stone came in last eren iug for the court house. Samuel Richardson and son Will were the purchasers of the Metteer farm mentioned last week. Patrick Blessington, a prosperotis farmer south of Louisville, came in on the Schuyler this morning. Our genial post master and his worthy spouse started this morn ing for McCook to visit their daugh ter, Mrs. Margaret Jackson, for a few days. , There was a fight and some blood shed out on the bottoms yesterday, but eye witnesses refuse to tell who the parties were. The fish car and guests of Mr. O'Brion, as printed several days ago in THE Hekald. departed for the Klkhorn lakes last evening. County Commissioners Todd and Trietsch are at Union to-day meet ing the Otoe county commissioners to arrange for an iron bridge across the Weeping Wrater on the county line road. Wiley Black purchased the B. F Turner property on Dey street yes ferday, and will move up to it the first of next month. It is a nice place and will make Mr. and Mrs. Black a cosy home. Miss Edna Eaton is the new cash ier at Dovey's since the' have put in their new sj-stem of cash carriers. Business in expedited by the new system Vind a record of the business is also more easily kept. The Murray Banner made its ap pearance at our sanctum to-day. It is a neat paper and from its well filled advertising columns it is evidently doing business in a live community and has come to stay. Hon. Anderson Root sold a load of oats in Plattsmouth on Friday last for HO cents per bushel. Sev eral of our farmers are taking ad vantage of the excellent market to dispose of the surplus. Murray Banner. The supreme court has adjourned to Tune 2.1. It seems the "entente cordiale" has been slightly strained between Judge Maxwell and his as sociates on account of the recent decision and the haste shown in is suing the writ which ousted Boyd. Rats! The following is a fishy flavored special that appears in to-day's Bee y'rom Lincoln. In the middle of a crowd of men on O street this afternoon Lieuten ant Governor Majors and. Colonel J. D. Calhoun met. The ousting of Boyd immediately became the sub ject of discussion, and during the course of it Calhoun suddenly ejac ulated: "Tom, you needn't plead ignor ance. I have tumbled to this deep laid scheme and one of my infor mants is in Washington. It is simply this: When Secretary Proc tor of the president's cabinet re signs, Manderson is to be selected for that position, then Thayer will resign as governor and you will succeed to that position and then repay him by appointing him to the position of senator, made vacant by Manderson." For the first time in his life Tom Majors turned deadly pale, made one or two ineffectual attempts to talk and finally rushed away with out saying anything. From Fritlnyi Daily. Wm. Ossenkop, a prominent citi zen of LouiHV'lle, ia in town. T. B. Wilson, the Ashland lawyer, is in town on legal business. A. L. Timblin, a Weeping Water attorney, is transacting business in the city to-day. Sheriff Tighe says the Irish don't have to go; they have already gone.

Todd came in seventy-live bushels which he is shipping to-day with of millet, to Omaha Herdsmen. Gust Reinhackle is quite sick at Colorado City, having been brd fast for the last week with some thing akin to la grippe. The Greenwood Gazette lias again Huspended. We believe it has been no fault of the town, but rather lack of capital to start with on the part of the publisher. Jim Sage hauled two dimension stones yesterday for the courthouse at one load with his brag team that weighed 7,040 pounds, the stones were from the Cedar Creek quarries, eirht inches thick, four feet wide and eight feet long. Pearlman's team had another one of its periodical runaways jester dav and attracted mute a crowd as it tore across the stone at the court house and came to a sudden stop against a tree near the alley. No one hurt and but little damage done to the wagon. Ex-Lieutenant Governor E. C. Carnes of Seward has been ap pointed state oil inspector in place of Louis Ileimrod of Omaha. Ed is an enerireiic fellow with hosts of friends all over the state, who will be heartily glad of his appoint ment. Four days have been occupied in selecting a jury in the Sheedy case at Lincoln and still the end is not yet. Two Hundred and four teen men have been examined and ordered to stand aside because they were intelligent. A jury in a modern murder trial places a high premium on ignorance. W. S. Purdy has received a well merited increase in his pension ac companied by a neat sum of ac crued back pay. Mr. Purdy was a captain of scouts during the late war and saw lots of hard lighting and had some narrow escapes. Hie IlEKALD is glad to know of his being recompensed a little for the good work of thirty years ago. Chas. Flower met with quite a se vere accident last week. Whilelead- ing his fine horse "Ney" into Mr. Philpot's barn in the country, a horse he was passing kicked him on the nose and the side of the head and knocked him down and his horse ran over him. Mr. Philpot pulled Chas out of the barn in an unconscious condition. That's what.s the matter with his nose. Weeping Water Republican. The two Sitzman boys, aged about ten and twelve, were discovered hid away in Bennett & Tutt's store last night as Cap Bennett was closing up. The boys were handed over to the-police and were lodged in jail. Their object could have been noth ing more nor less than robbery. Owing to their age, and the fact that nothing was taken, Mr. Bennett declines to appear against them to day. Consequently nothing will be done except to discharge them. I. Pearlman has purchased the Weckbach room of J. V. Egenberger jr, and will remove his furniture store into the new quarters as soon as the room can be fitted up for him. Mr. Pearlman begun in this town a few years ago with a pile of scrap iron and a few old stoves, but by close attention to business he has built up a large trade in furni ture and general house fittings, and has become one of the heaviest propert- owners to be found among our business men. The moon-faced Ass that edits the Journal and pretends to do job work in the hole under Sherwood's criticises the board of trade folder recently issued from The IlERAtD office. . As we are securing job work on merit and not through bulldozing, we have to-day circu lated among the business houses of the city a sample of the same kind of work done by the Journal office last year, along with a sample of our own. Pay your money and take your choice. The River Improvement, .The Missouri River commission is in session right now in Omaha If the committee appointed by the mayor would wait on the members at once with Mr. Berlin, our de mands would receive prompt atten tion and a long trip to St. Louis would be avoided and money would be saved for the city. If the right kind of zeal is manifested this mat ter will be attended to forthwith and then if the board has any doubt about the representations made to it, an adjournment can be made to this city and the river looked over by the honorable board. In this way we might have work begun at an earlv dav and have the channel thrown where it used to run. savinn- the city from the danger of an epi- uemic as a resuu ot tne sewerage and villainous smells that hover about the old channel durinir the hot months. By all means let us have the expenditure of that $50,000 this summer when it is needed. If nothing is done while the present excellent opportunity is afforded, the committee will have to bear the blame for the failure. ( Raamua Piron.

During the past few days of ex cilement it appears that almost ev ery one nau lost sigitt ot tlie ap pointmetits to be made under the act appropriating $r0,000 for a di play at the world's fair. There are seven important offices to be filled; a commissioner genera who shall receive $'J,5(Ji) peryearand six commissioners who shall re ceive $5 per tlay for each day actu ally employed. K. I'. Roggen of this city, it was claimed, was to have been ap pointed commissioner general by Governor lioyd when the proper time came, but the selection was never made. In fact Governo Boyd's friends claim he intended to make none whatever until after the supreme court should have handed down a decision in his favor, and might have refrained from doing so had the pressure been less weighty The appointment of a commissioner general, it is said, was also prom tsed to Colonel North, of Columbus Now that Governor Thayer is in there is said to be nothing in the way of ex-Governor Furnas. He is considered as good as appointed by those wno claim to know. Matrimonial. William A. Cleghorn of Louis ville was married yesterday to Miss Helen Stander, daughter of Frank Stander, Esq., of that city. Willie was inclined to bachelor hood, but the winning ways and genial manners of Miss Helen were too much ior him and he had to surrender. Mr. Cleghorn is one of Louisrille's best and brightest young men and well deserves the congratulations of friends for the good fortune which has attended him in the se lection of so accomplished and tal ented a voting lady for a life part ner. The Hekald extends its hear tiest congratulations to the happy couple wuii best wishes tor healtli wealth and happiness. Married. Mr. Orrin C. Smith the popular time keeper at the B. & M. shops was married in the city Wednesday evening by FJder Reid to Mrs Frances Rounds. Mr. Smith is well and favorably known in this city where he has resided for the last ten years. The bride is also well known and admired for her laclv like demeanor and kindly disposi xion. a ne iieraiu laives pleasure in wishing Mr. and Mrs. Smith all the good things of life in unmeasured abundance.

We notice in the Otoe county pa pers a new wall map of the county. which gives general satisfaction, is being delivered to subscribers there. If the maker of that map. or some one who can execute a good one, would come to this county, he could, we believe, do a good busi ness. It has been thirteen years since a map of the county has been engraved, and it ia out of date. Send your map man over. Weeping Water Republican. Major Pearman, the maker of the Otoe county map, has been en gaged for some time on a map for this county, which he expects to have completed at an early day, And we are sure it will be a good one that will give much better sat isfaction than the old one did, yet it will only cost about half as much. Snyder the druggists is again in trouble overplus indentity. A Ger man farmer who has been in the habit of trading with Mr. Paul Gering took Snyder for Gerinir and bought a bill of paper of him; but the farmer was worried to under stand how the "old man" had for- gottou his German all in a month, nr. anyaer not being able to speak the language. Supreme Court. The following syllabi of two Cass county cases appears in late de cisions: Shafer vs. Stull, sr. Appeal from Cass county. Affirmed. Opinion by Justice Norval. Where a party cuts down a fence on the lands of another, and after- I wards attempts to justif- the act on ! the ground that the fence is within i a public road, he must prove by a preponderance ol tne evidence that the fence at that point was within the limits of a legally established public highway. 2. The existence of a legal public road over the premises ol a private person ma' be shown by user alone, but in that case the user :'itist have been with the know ledge of the owner, and have con tinued the length of time necessary to bar an action to recover the title to land. This rule, however, does no' apply when the user is of wild uncultivated prairie land. Graham vs. Hariwell. 10 Neb. .""17. H. The defendants have repeat edly torn down plaintiff's fence in order to pass over his lands, and have threatened to continue to do so. Held that the plaintiff is en titled to relief in equity by injunc tion, in order to prevent a multipli city of suits. Lehnhoff & Soennichsen vs. Fisher et al. Error from Cass Affirmed. Opinion by county. J ustice Norval. A rule of the district court which provides that an action in which the statutory time for filing a reply has expired or will expire one week before the first day of the next suc ceeding term, whether issue has been joined or noi, may be noticed for trial at such term by either par ty by filing with the clerk one week before the commencement of the term, and no action, not so noticed, will be docketed for trial or tried upon an issue of fact, except by consent of both parties held, not to apply to cases which are for hearing on error. 2. Under the provisions of sec tion 531 A of the code the wages ot sixty days service of laborers, me chanics or clerks, who are heads of families, in the hands of their em ployers, are absolutely exempt from execution, attachment or garnisment. 3. The provisions of section 531 of the code, which reads "Nor shall anything in this chapter be construed to exempt irom execu tion or attachment, property of the value of five hundred dollars ($.i(X)) for any debt contracted by any per son in purchase of the actual ne cessaries of life, for himself and family," do not apply to debts con traded by the head of a family for groceries and furnished him as supplies for a boarding house, lite base ball boys are going right ahead with their work, fixing up their new ball grounds whicl are now surrounded by a neat fence about completed. A St. Joe pitcher has been sent forand Walker a first class player from Mt. Pleasant will also be a member of the nine. These two additions with our talent will make a nine that can white wash neighbors with neatness and dis patch. In the case of Hester Pool vs. Wm. Philpot. The defendant was taken before Justice Archer and waived an examination. He was then bound over in the sum of $1,200 to appear at the next term of the dis trict court. Needles, oil and repairs and parts for all kinds of sewing machines at tne singer oltice. dim zzczz, ana oy as mucn as tne latter are calculated to dispel agreeable illusions; they are destructive of happiness. There fore I am inclined to think that however desirable knowledge may be respecting things with which one has no personal and intimate concern, it is most com fortable to know a very little about one's self and one's environment. 'Drink deep or taste not the Pierian spring. ' " Wash ington Star. Two German Words Tliat STe.in Much. German barbers in New York have a curious system of signs and mysterious words by which they indicate to each otiier the tendency of customers to give large tips, small tips or none at all. If a new barber in a lare shop gets a gen erous customer in his chair, a fellow workman who has shaved the generous customer before mutters in his ear. Brunz"' that is, "lie tips." "Bnmz" is a distinctively German product, and till recently was never heard outside of continental barber shops. Its greatest merit is that it means nothing to per sons who are not barbers, for it has no indorsement from the German diction aries, and does not even enjoy the ques tionable authority of student slang. German barbers in New York desig nate a man wno gives no gratuities as a "muff." Like "brunz," "muff" is no word at all, and was invented by wily continental barbers for the needs of the shop only. The amount of the tip to be expected is revealed by the old journey men to the new ones by various contor tions of the fingers and by low German monosyllables of no apparent relevancy .Montreal Star. Stones Are Composed of Shells. The tripoli, used for polishing our ta bleware, ia composed entirely of the si- hcious shells of infusoria. The earthly paint with which our houses are colored is nothing but the remains of different species of these animals. Even the hard est rocks the flints show, when exam ined under the microscope, that they, too, are composed of the skeletons of in fusoria. I once examined a thin sec tion of a flint formerly used by the great hunter, Daniel Boone. This flint was composed of the shells of infusoria. The gun, an old flintlock rifle, from which this flint was taken, is still preserved at Frankfort, Ky. Even many of theprecious stones, such as the caraelian, owe their beautiful colors to the presence of fossil infusoria. ilacon Telegraph. t 'm Ai T V hi What is Cast oris Ls Dr. Scjnuel Pitcher's proscription for Infants and Children.
