Prof. Kummerow is organizingfa class of little girls for calisthenic exercises. The first meeting of the class will take place to-morrow af ternoon.

Sig Green came in yesterday from Ashland and is busily engaged packing up his household goods preparatory to his removal to that place, where he has been elected secretary of the Y. M. C. A., a posi tion he is most excellently qualified to fill. The Herald is sorry to have Mr. and Mrs. Green leave us and can assure the Ashland folks that they have added two of our nicest young people to their list of citizens. Are we in it? Are we in it?? Are we in it??? Well I should say so, -when it comes to wall paper, or wall paper or wall paper, we are. clear in it, that i with the largest stock great est variety and the lowest prices.

We are the lowest price, and the leading house in the wall paper business, the only small things about us is our prices. Gering A Co., dniggisL Additional Local on Fourth Page. Otoe's Fruit Crops. The fruit prospects for Otoe county were never better since 18G2. Peaches and pears have generally been a failure but they show up very nicely, not only in Otoe county but also in Nemaha and Cass coun ties. The cherry and apple crop will beat the world. The blossoms are so thick that they look like a bunch of flowers without any leaves, and now the fruit is forming in such clusters that they bid fair warning to every owner of orchards to look out in time for proper sup ports. The Ben Davis apple seems to take the cake, because on some twigs twenty or twenty-fur little apples can be observed. As this apple is a heavy one some of the young fruit ought to be culled in time to prevent the breaking of limbs. Above are the words of one who knows what he is talking about and who has been out among the orchards. Mr. Seifert, in the Smith settle ment near Osage, has forty trees loaded with young peaches covered with gray velvet coating. From the south line of Otoe county to the edge of Cass our reporter has made the same observations. Nebraska City Press. Sold Again. The boss fake of the year is the alleged interview with President Harrison on the subject of the Ne braska governor which was sent out from Omaha last Wednesday. It is a six footer of a fake, with a stand collar, a plug hat and a gold headed cane. State Journal The Journal of this city gulped down the fake in great shape and published it yesterday as news. GRANULATED SUGAR 25 POUNDS for $1.00 at E. G. Dovey & Son's. A Catastrophe on the Hudson. From the morning papers an un usual accident, horrible to contem plate, befel a train on the Hudson River Railroad in New York yester day. As a construction train was rushing along the bluffs of the Hudson, a car loaded with dyna mite just ahead of the caboose suddenly exploded and blew the forward part of the train to atoms. Six men were killed outright and nearly fifty were seriously injured. The exact number cannot yet be learned, as the injured were taken to various hospitals. The scene of the accident is one of the beautiful points on the banks of the Hudson. The explosion oc curred almost directly in front of the handsome residence of Richard Hoe, the printing press manufactu rer, while the mansion of Elliott F. Shepard and of John Rockefeller are close by. A panic occurred in the high school of Tarrytown among the pupils. The school building was violently shaken and the scholars and teachers thought that an earth quake had occurred. The children ran out of their class rooms into the street, but fortunately none were injured in the wild rush. Farmers Should Attend, The meeting-of the National as sociation of expert swine-breeders to be held at Lincoln June 2-5, will be one of great importance and its location at Lincoln is uojsmall com pliment to Nebraska as hog produc ing state. It will be attended by prominent swine-breeders all over the United States and the represen tation of Nebraska breeders will be especially large. No more profita ble industry exists today in the state of Nebraska than that of raising hogs. Our farmers could learn many valuable hints if they would mingle with the extensive swine- breeders at the state capital for a few days in June. Important. All the girls who expect to take part in the carnival tomorrow night MUST BE at the opera house to night for rehersal, you cannot ap pear in the march and drill unless you practice. If any want to give up their part, please let us know and return your verse for some one else to have. We must know tonight how many we have so that if all places are not filled we can fill them as this is our last night for practice seven p. m. sharp. Cheap Sugar. An era of cheap sugar has dawned upon Plattsmouth that will be appre ciated by cash consumers of that article. By scanning our advertis ing columns the public will be noti fied where they can buy the best grade of granulated sugar at the rate of 25 pounds for a dollar. It is not true that George Vass stopped a freight train as he went home the other night. No danger signals were given. Chief Engineer Lewis informs us the Dago strike on their line near Union did not amount to much and would cause no delay of any mo ment. The Singer management under Mr. Cronin is wideawake. They re ceived a splendid new wagon yes terday for their country trade that was a dazzler. The weather bulletin says, more rain to-night and from the appear ance of the atmosphere this after noon we are not disposed to dispute the statement. L. Grossenbacher has built a new blacksmith shop on Washington avenue where he expects to get his share of the custome work that comes to town. Cards are out announcing the cel ebration of Mr. and Mrs. Latham's twenty-fifth wedding anniversary at their pleasant home on North Sixth street next Monday evening. Wash Snyder came home to-day from Virginia where he has large land interests in litigation. Hesays the Old Dominion has changed but little since he left it several years ago. Thomas E. Williams, the farmer journalist, finished planting corn yesterday and came to town. He made The Herald a pleasant call and swapped a few stories with the manager. The Italian Band in town to-day, is composed of fine musicians and are a better looking class of men than we sometimes meet from sunny Italy in the itinerary music business in this country. The Rosenbaum corner at main and 3rd streets is being fixed up in good shape for some Italian fruit venders of Omaha who will take possession with a line of tropical standard fruit in a few days. The Turners have built a good fence around their- Washington avenue property, adding much to its general appearance. The Turners appear to be an exceed ingly prosperous organization. A team ran away on main street the other evening, and went "Ker smaeh" into V. V. Leonards buggy which was turned over breaking the shafts. The horse was not in jured and no further damaged was done, thejvicious run aways being captured "tew wunst." Allow me to add my tribute to the efficacy of Ely's Cream Balm. I was suffering from a severe attack of influenza and catarrh and was induced to try your remedy. The result was marvelous, I could hardly articulate, and in less than twenty-four hours the catarrhal symptoms and my hoarseness disap peared and I was able to sing a heavy role in Grand Opera with voice unimpaired. I strongly rec ommend it to all singers. Wm.ll. Hamilton, Leading Basso of the C. D. Hess Grand Opera Co. The forest fires in Pennsylvania are still raging in their awful fury. A dispatch from Williamsport says: "This city was enveloped in smoke all day yesterday. At mid day it was so dark that it was neces sary to light the gas in the stores and offices, and the electric compa nies were compelled to turn on their circuits. To the west and north of the city forest fires are raging and a northwest wind which has pre vailed for the last few days has fanned the flames into fresh fury." The Plattsmouth brick and terra cotta company have sold 800,000 brick to the court house contractor to be used as backwalls and inside walls on the court house. They have delivered 200.000 of them and are turning out from tjie factory the snug number of 00,000 per week. Walter White the new superintend ent is the right man in the right place. He gives all his time to the business which has already pro ven the best paying institution in the city. a-. POL' POUNDS of granulated Ap ar for S 1 .OO at Week- back A Co's., for spot CASH.''
