5 :1 I i ! I- i r.i AT THE CHURCHES YESTERDAY. Two Edifi.-e iedioatea-Hev Britt fill the Pulpit m( tlie M fc. Chuivh. Frmn Jfowfuu,' Ikiilu. AT TUB TAUKKN.U I.E. The First Baptist clitircli wan ap propriately dedicated yesterday. In the morning a hcrnioii watt de livered by Kev. Williams I). D., of Lincon. At 7:.') Kev. Griffith, of Shenandoah, occupied the pulpit. Several proininet workers of the church were present, among whom wan Kev. S. Merril, a son of the early Baptist missionary who was more instrumental in establishing the church on a firm basis in thiH state, than any other man. The pastor and his parishioners are to be con gratulated upon having finished and rendered free from pecuniary incumbrance such a commodious and convenient place of worship. AT THE BOHEMIAN CATHOLIC C HURCH. Extensive preparations had been made by the Bohemian branch of the Catholic church to dedicate their new church situatediu the west part of the city in grand style and ap parently their expectations were fully realized. A large delegation of the A" O. H., of Omaha, accom panied by their bind arrived on No. 4, they were met at the sta tion by the local branch here and, with colors flying and bands play ing, they were escorted to the church where sevcnty-live'little girls were consecrated with the usual ceremony. At 2:) another parade was participated in before march ing to the church. At the church the dedicatory excercises were carried out to the letter. Several prominent ollicials of the church were ' present among whom were Father Howska, of Crete, and Bis hop Honakin, of Lincoln. AT THE M. E. CHURCH. Kev. L. V. Hritt, who has recently been assigned to the pastorate of the M. K. church at this place occupied the pulpit Sunday morning and evening. Kev. Hritt is recognized as one of the strongest men in the conference and indications are that he fully merits the place he occu pies in the estimation of his co-! a borers. He impresses his audience as one who thinks and without hes itation imparts the product of his thought to the people. We predict for the new pastor and the church a prosperous year. Union Item. From tlie ledger. Attorneys II. I). Travis and J. h Douglas of Weeping Water came , down on the M. l last Thursday and took the "Melt Line" for Platts- niouth. Attorney I). O. Dwyer of I'latts mouth came down last Monday on his way to Nebraska City, and while here he had the pleasure of greet ing many of his Union friends. ' for.

Mr. Salisbury is the republican candi date for clerk of the district court and desires to let the people become acquainted with their candidate. Mr. O. II. Snyder of Ptattsnioiitli made a visit to our village last Tuesday and it is said that one of young men came near asking him to issue a marriage license and thus save the y. m. a trio to I'latts mouth, but he discovered in time that it was not Judge Ramsey.

Make your town out a very bad place, and stab it every chance you Refuse to unite in any scheme for the betterment of the material in terest of the people. Tell your merchant that you can buy your goods a great deal cheaper in another town and charge him with extortion. Keep every cent you get, and dont do anything of a public nature un less yon can 'make something out of it directly. When you have any thing to say of your town, say it in such a way that it will leave the impression that you have no faith in it. Patronize outside newspapers to the exclusion of your own. and then denounce them for not being as large as the city papers. Kx. I 'rof. M usgra ves, arri ved last even ing and began work this morning with a zest and enthusiasm that promises well. The board of edu cation has succeeded in securing the services of a specialist for the business department and the pat rons of our schools are to be con gratulated upon their good fortune Conrad Slater, of Louisville, is in the city to-day. Wedrlinu Bel In Makkiki At the Kpiscopal church Saturday evening, at 8 p. in., Mr. Sam Patterson to Miss Rose McCauley, Kev. liurges-t ottici ating. The wedding was rather a quiet affair, the ceremony being per formed in the presence of a few relatives and immediate friends. Kach of the contracting parties are of highly influential and respected families and are regarded by all who know them as worthy and promising young people. They certainly begin life together under very auspicious circumstances and doubtless the voyage will be a prosperous and eventful one. The HERALD extends congratu lations. The Night School. Now that a thoroughly competent instructor has been secured to as sume control of the business de partment of our city schools, those who are desirous of obtaining a business education will be afforded an excellent opportunity. In addi tion to the day session, which be gan this morning, a night school will be maintained, and those who may not be accommodated at the day session, surely will be at the latter. The first meeting will be held to-morrow evening at the high school building at 7:30 p. in. A tuition fee of $1.50 will be charged those taking the common branches, while those pnrsujng the business training course will be required to pay $3.00 per month. It is earnestly desired that all who have signified their intention to attend, or all others who are so inclined, will meet promptly at the appointed time and place. Laid to Rett. Geo. Goose, living two miles south of the city, age tiO years was hurried at Oak Hill cemetery yesterday.Rev. Wittie, of the German Presbyterian church officiating. Mr. Goose has been afflicted with consumption for nearly a year, but bore the suffering with fortitude 'til death relieved him. ' A little infant, of John Ledge way, was hurried yesterday. Willie, a six month's old infant, of Mr. and Mrs. Hascal, was hurried yesterday. A Wreck at South Bend. Karly yesterday morning engine No. 81 ran into the rear of a freight train at South Hend and besides disabling the engine, the way car and one freight car loaded with merchandise was badly demolished. It is not jet announced who was to blame for the mishap. Mrs. Fred Murphy came down from Cedar Creek this morning and will visit with her mother, Mrs. A. Patterson, this week. NEAL, PREPARE FOR THY DOOM. Word! spoken by Governor Thayer. Deatn Stare Him in the Face. From rwtl(ii Daily Governor Thayer will decide to day whether he will cheat the gal lows of Kd Neal's neck or let the law take its course and thereby end a desperate man's career. Governor i Mayer yesterday refused to con verse with newspaper reporters, but it is known to a few that he re fused to commute the death sen tence. He has looked over the evi dence which shows that Neal com mitted a cold blooded murder when he struck down Allen and Dorethv Jones at the Pinney farm near Omaha, and yesterday afternoon was in consultation with one of the judges of the supreme court. No one expects a rept ive as the decis ion will be announced to-day and the execution will occur Friday. When Neal's attorney applied last week for commutation Governor Thayer told him to inform Niel to prepare for his doom. Lincoln Journal. A Runaway Train. A peculiar circumstance hap pened yesterday on the M. P. road near Nehawka. As a freight train was taking a load of rock and lime from the Nehawka quarries, owing to the steep grade, the train became unmanageable and attained a ve locity that rendered the position of the trainmen very dangerous. The brake-man became alarmed and jumped from the train, one of whom, Chas. Goodwith fractured a bone in his leg in the attempt o alight. Nebraska City Enterprise. The Hoard of Trade at Nebraska City is considering a proposition made by an eastern capitalist to es tablish a plant for the manufacture of steel roofing and other builder's material. The company propose to start with a capital of 1(1,001) , increase it to 200,000 within a year. If it is possible to induce capital ists to come west, our Hoard of Trade should endeavor to impress them favorably with Plattsmotith. Will you sutler with Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint?

Ca County Protest but it is of no avail The Independent judicial conven tion convened aI)unbar to-day as per announcement. Oir- Tipton was made chairman and H. F. Allen secretary. Cass county cast eleven votes against nominating a candi date, but as Otoe cast thirteen votes solidly favoring a nomination, a candidate was placed in the field. T. II. Stevenson, of Nebraska City, was nominated on the first ballot. The outcome of these delibera tions will cause little interest as the independents do not expect to elect their candidate. What We are Doing In the High School- There are four classes, called the Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior classes. The commercial course is for pupils who care nothing for literary and classical culture. The class in business arithmetic made splendid progress under Prof. Halsey's direction. The Senior class is the envy of all former classes because of the many increased labratory facilities. Kvery class throughout the four years' course has mathematics, in the form of algebra, business arith metic, geometry, and the science of arithmetic in the light of algebra and geometry. It is easy to discover which pupils have parents and friends who appreciate the immense value of n study like Latin by the way those pupils do their work. It is the ambition, evidently, of the high school teachers that the coming men and women under their influence shall be capable ot going through all intellectual operations in au accurate, orderly and rapid manner, have their hearts as well as heads full of worthy sentiments, and be able to put into practice all that they have mastered theoretically. Whether they will succeed dependslnalarge degree upon pupil and parent. All pupils in the high school are expected to prepare at least one recitation outside of school hours. (Parents please notice.) Kvery scholar in the regular course is studying some science, and will all through the four years' course. Buy books and read them with your boy or girl in connection with the subjects they are studying. It may do you both good. To Build a Hall. The G. A. R. post of this place. has purchased a lot on Sixth be tween Main and Vine streets, and in all probability a three story brick block will be erected thereon next spring. Several prominent G. A. R. men, who are noted for their enter prising and public spirited quali ties, have the matter in charge and it will be pushed as rapidly as possible. Science in Bread Making. At the recent annual meeting of the American Chemical Society, held in Washington, D. C, the question of the value of carbonate of ammonia as a leavening agent in bread, or as used in baking powders, came up for discission, in which Prof. Barker, of the Uni versity of Pennsylvania, and Presi dent of the Society; Br. Richardson, late of the United States Depart ment of Agriculture in Washing ton; Dr, Wm. McMutrie, late I'rof. of Chemistry in the University of Illinois; Dr. K. II. Hartley, late Chemist of the Brooklyn, N. Y., Hoard of Health, and Prof, of Chem istry of the Long Island College, and others took part. The consensus of opinion was over whelming in favor of the employ ment of ammonia. It was stated as a fact that ammonia rendered the gluten, and that the bread in which this action was produced by car bonate of ammonia must be more digestible and hence more health ful, and because of the extreme volatility of carbonate of ammonia and its complete expulsion from the bread in the process of baking, it is one of the most useful, most healthful and most valuable leaven ing agent known. These conclusions are borne out by the very elaborate and ex haustive experiments made by Prof. J. W. Mallet, of University of Vir ginia, which show conclusively that bread made with baking powder in which one per cent, of carbonate of ammonia is used, in connection with cream of tarter and soda, is not only of uniformly bet ter color and texture, but a product more wholesome, because the am monia serves to neutralize any organic or lactic acids present in the flour.

Certi fied copy of same admitted to pro bate. Last will and testament of Geo. Goos filed for probate. L. C. Kickhoff, the republican can didate for county treasurer, was a pleasant caller at Tug Herald sanctum yesterday. Mr. Kickhoff is one of the strongest candidates on the republican ticket and indi cations are that his majority after election will be fully as large as that of any other candidate. The stock sale of Samuel Barker has been postponed for a week or ten days. See ad next week. This is a republican year. Wheeler's friends are now confi dent that he will carry the state by a good majority. No law has so rapidly obtained popular favor by its practical ap plication as has the McKinley bill. The Bee says that Edgerton should change his name to Neces- ity; for, "Necesity knows no law." Republican clubs are being formed in a great many counties in the state and they are doing valiant service for the party they represent. Now that the democracy of Ne braska has concluded to keep out of the race this year, that party richly merits distinction a a back number. If the democratic vote of Otoe county counts for aught Judge Post will be the next associate justice of the supreme court Nebraska City Press. Ik you expect to vote the straight republican ticket, or do you prefer to go it half republican and add to the sucess of the enemy the other half, to the detriment of your own party? Why not go it straight? This is a year in which republic ans should stand by the nominee of the party. It is often true that we give candidates of other parties a complimentary vote because of personal friendship or some other extraneous and trifling condition; but tl is year, if the republican coun ty ticket is elected, every vote mustbe cast for the straight ticket. Kvery man nominated by the republican party is worthy the full party sup port, and if a member of the party deserts a part of the ticket, assists in electing candidates of other par ties, thus encouraging the opposi tion, they should blame themselves in the event that the republican party is relegated to the rear. It is not at all surprising that the Cass county delegation to the inde pendent convention yesterday voted solidly against nominating a candi date. Theydesiied to turn the vote, in a great measure, over to Travis, thus giving that gentleman all the show possible for election; but the bold stand taken by the Otoe county delegation completely thwarted their wily game.

Lace headdresses, or what were called heads or lace, were very fashionable In England in the reigns of Mary and Anne, and the ladies of the court some times paid very large sums for a fine head of French or Flemish lace, hut th extravagance tn this fragile article of loxnry was never carried to the same rmnona extent aa tn t rance. It was, however, profusely worn during what may be called the lace epoch, and was even coveted a nn article of adornment after death Mrs. Oldtivld, the celebrated actress, left instructions that she should be laid in her coffin arrayed in a very fine head dress of Brussels lace, in a shroud of Holland linen with lace tucker and ruf fles and a pair of kid gloves. Yards of the costliest point d'Angleterre and Mechlin laces were wrapped around the corpse of the beautiful Aurora von Konigsinarck before the was laid in her grave at (juedlinburg, and many of the mummies found in the catacombs of the Capuchin convent at Palermo are swathed in the same costly funeral robes. -Chambers' Journal. Aa Abnormal Appetite. A native of Wittonberg on one occa sion, after eatiug a sheep and a sucking pig, ate by way of dessert sixty pounds of prunes without taking out the stones. On another occasion this same individ ual devoured two bushels of cherries, several earthen vessels, chips from a fur nace, pieces of gloss, some beetles, a shepherd's bagpipe, rats, birds with their feathers on, and a number of caterpil lars, finishing up by swallowing a pew ter inkstand, with its pens, paper knife and sand box.

He died in his eighty-first year. London Tit-Bits. Tha Two Meridian. The (Geographical congress held in Switzerland recommended the universal adoption of the metrio system and also the Greenwich meridian for the reckon ing of longitude and time. It is doubt ful if this will be done, however, by all nations, for, although a standard in both cases would be beneficial to the world at large, France naturally desires Paris time, and England would never surrender her prime meridian and adopt a revolution in her system of measure ments unless the new measure was ex amined and based upon intrinsic merit New York Times. How PlaMerer Do Without a Doctor. Every trade has its special physio. This is true. In conversation a surgeon remarked that few things gave more pain, attended with bo much danger, as some particles of lime dust in the eye. A gentleman standing by remarked. "And yet such an accident is of daily oc currence, is attended with hardly any danger, and is most easily treated." "How so?" came a chorus of voices. "Well, I will tell you. I was brought up to the trade of a plasterer, a ceiling plasterer. You may not know that the final layer ujwn a good ceiling is almoat pure lime. The plasterer stands upon a platfArm and lays on the paste. It falls upon him in every direction, and, espe cially if he is a new hand, often a splat ter falls right into his eye. When he gets accustomed to the work the eyelid seems to get used to it, too, and seeing to close automatically in Belf defense. "Directly such an accident occurs a fellow workman takes a mouthful of water from the nearest pail and there is always a pailful of water handy opens the eye as wide as possible aud squirts with all his force the contents of his month against' the eyeball. This im mediately cools the lime and also drives it out of the eye. Simple remedy, isn't it, and eminently practical? But you see a man's eye would be burned out long before he could reach the nearest doctor's." New York Recorder.
