Eugene Hunt, the rustling: man ager of the Chicago Dramatic Journal, has begun the publication of a bright sheet of dramatic items called "Hunt s News Letters." It is intended for the use of editors and is a very valuable publication. II. N. Dovey came sailing down street this morning and with a voice that sounded like a fog horn he shouted, "its a boy" and it weighs twelve pounds, and that it would vote the straight ticket in the coming election. The two men from South Bend ar rested for stealing wheat were brought into police court thisalter noon and the case against them dismissed. They were, however, immediately rearrested and waited examination and their trial set for nett week. IS 1 L4 A GREAT CASE. A Rival of the Ellenbaum-BUstelrt Case to be Tried In County Court. Away alotiR in the sober days of last autumn, when the bright golden leaven of the forest trees 1....1 rfno in lli "Here mill I i il (.1 r 1 1 vu fi.i.v - - - - , yellow leaf," and the democratic candidate had given up the ghost and retired from the race, John Kiaer, a lusty and vigorous disciple of the "calamity howlerB." walked into "Hilly" Weber's aalooon and in thunder tone9 proclaimed that he had sundry and divers dollars iu his pockets to wager that Joseph Edgerton would be the next supreme judge. No notice was taken of this bold "deli," for no one supposed that Kiser meant it, but he did, and vociferously proclaimed it again and again, until, to prevent his place being pulled for dis orderly conduct, Weber was com- pelled to take ten dollars' worth of the bet. After a great and unseemly wrangle, C. H. Vallery was made stakeholder, and the parties abided the judgment of the people. Of course, you all know how it came out. Kdgerton wasn't in it; he never knew he was running. Hon. A. M. Post abolished his candi dature in short order. Hut after the election Kiser became a changed mm. He no longer desiied to deposit funds on Mr. Edgerton's clectioti, but on the con trary, he notified Mr. Vallery that the money must not be paid over to Weber. After repeated demands, Weber sued for the amount. The case was set for trial to-day, but, owing to other business, the court was forced to continue it indefi nitely. Byron Clark and Charley Grimes represent the plaintiff, while S. P. Vanatta is for the defendant. Invaded the Hou9e. Mr. and Mrs. T. E.

The party met at the res idence of P. D. Bates and from there went in a body to the Williams res idence. The invaders spent a pleas ant evening and departed about two o'clock in the morning, leaving, however, a set of China dishes, as a small token of the estimation in which Mr. and Mrs. Williams are held in by their friends in the city.

Mysterious Movements of the United States Cruiser Charleston. San Francisco, Cal., March. 14. The United States cruiser Charles ton came down from Mare Island to-day and put to sea at once with out stopping. Her destination is not know 11 positively, but it is be lived s' e has gone to San Diego to await "den. for Bering sea. Th nine activity that prevailed at ' re Island navy yard during the .scussion of the Chilian affairs has again been revived by reason of the Bering sea controversy, and every indication points strongly to the fact that the United States pro poses to send immediately north all the available navy vessels on the Pacific coast station. A SURE THING. Plattsmouth Will Play Ball Its League Club a Winner, The local base ball management has been on the rustle for sometime and has finally received encourage ment enough to warrant them in declaring that Plattsmouth will have base ball and good ball, too. T. M. Patterson has had the entire control of the club in his hands for some time, and to his efforts can this city lay its success. He has already signed eight players and has several more iu view. The players so far signed are Maupin, catcher of last year's Lincoln Giants and Plattsmouth clubs; Reeves, a crack colored pitcher of KanHBB City; George Yapp, our crack pitcher of last year; Gibson, first baseman, of Fairfield, Iowa; Mc Kibben, second baseman of last season's Hastings team; Porter, of the Pueblo, Colorado, team, third base; Clark, of Carroll, Iowa, short stop, and Bradford, of the Omaha Nonpareils, fielder. It is possible, however, that Bradford may not play here. He has been dickering with Beatrice, and they claim him. Patterson still hopes to keep him. The team compares favorably with unyjin the league and, no doubt, will be "in it" from the start. In fact, if our enthusiasm gets worked up, we will soon be ready to claim the championship. Hastings has finally determined to enter the league and Kearney is said to be getting in trim for a fight. If these two clubs come in, Norfolk will be retained and an eight-club circuit formed. From present indications the Nebraska state league will be a flourishing success. World's Fair Notes. Bulgaria has decided to partici pate in the exposition. Foreign participation, so far as ascertained up to the present, embraces seventy-two nations androvinces. The Women's Christian Temper ance Union wants to put up a building, 70x100 feet, in which to exhibit the entire eystemjof its work and to conduct a cafe for the sale of temperance drinks. The city of Cincinnati wants to erect a building at the exposition, to be used as a club house and receptacle for a municipal exhibit. It is willing to expend$30,000 in the undertaking. Seven of the worlds fair buildings are now bo far advanced that they are fast assuming thefappearanec of finished structures. The rough carpentry work ou them is Jpracti cully done and the (ornamental and finishing work on themes in pro gress. Tnese buildings are the woman's horticultural, transporta tion, mines, forestry, administra tion and fisheries. Five more the government, linearis, agricultural dairy and Illinois state--are erected to the roof. The electricity, manu factures and machinery buildings are being advanced rapidly. The exposition authorities are anxious that all of the states and territories which intend to erect buildings at the exposition and which have not yet submitted plans for approval, do so at the earliest possible moment. Very soon a time will be speciliedbeyond which plans will not be accepted. May 1 is the date likely to be chosen. The demand for space is so greut that delinquent states are liablejto lose their sites that have been assigned to them. The Suffolk Horse Society of Ivngland have ottered two gold medels af the value of .Kl for the best Suffolk horse and mare or filly eihibiteil at tin world's fair in Chicago. Mr. Ossian Guthrie of Chicago, together with many other scien tists, declare that no more striking proofs of the glacial epoch exist in this country than are seen in the DespluincH valley between Chicago and Juliet. For educational rea sons Mr. Guthrie advocates the making of an exhibit demons) ruling this fact at the world's fair, with maps, surveys and collections of geological specimens, which are abundant, so arranged as to show the lines of glacial progres. This, he estimates, would reiiiire about $10,0011. LOUISVILLE BURNING. The Bank of Commerce and Several Small Buildings are Consumed. A telegram received this after noon a few minutes before 4 o'clock from Louisville calling for help saying that a fire had got started ; in that village and that if help did not arrive soon the entire town would be consumed. Later A telegram received at 4:30 states that the fire has been gotten i under control, but not before the flames hud consumed the Bank of Commerce and several small frame buildings. A large crowd of men from this city were at the depot waitiug for a train to be made up to go to the assistance of the vil lage, but ere they were ready to start a telegram was received an nouncing the fact that the flames had been subdued. Harry Race, Editor of the Weeping Water Eagle, is in the city to-day. The Contest Case The contest case is going slowly on. The ballots in A voca. Hlmwood Center precincts and the'Fturth ward have been counted and shows a gain of 3 votes for Dr Deerind. Ae Tub Herald goes to press they have just commenced to count Iouisville Precinct. AN ENTERPRISING NEEDLE. M Hm Been Wandering Throo(fc Mr. Stt fr'a tUiij for Two Tsis. Oliver M.

Y. IWmrs. To a hundred inquirers during the dy Mr. Stiger arwwered that h had carried the needle and thread in the. muscle ef his right side for over two years. Last Thursday evening when Mr. Stiger retired he complained of a sharp pain in his right side just below th shoulder blade, and Mrs. Stigcr, whlls attempting to relieva the pain, dis covered a small red spot, from the center of which protruded the point of a needle. She easily drew the needle and thread out, and when it was show to Mr. Stiger he remarked: "Then that has been the cause of all my ill ness these two years." Mr. Stifjer was seen at his oflieo yes terday afternoon and told the follow ing story: "About two years ago 1 became sud denly troubled with a pain in the thick of my riht thigh, and I treated my self for rheumatism, bat I found no re lief. The pain moved up my right side and settled over the pleura region, and I concluded that 1 had nn attack of pleurisy, and treated accordingly. For a year and a half the pain did not let up. Then it ascended again, and ettled in the base of my right long. 1 was troubled with a constant cough. I made up my mind I had gone into consumption, and I consulted special ists. Violent exercise was reoom mended, and the movement of the muscles must have worked the needle out. "I cannot imagine how I got the needle and thread in me. I could not havo swallowed it. I must have sat upon it. Every vestige of illness left me and I felt like a new man. My physicians consider me a very fortu nate man, for, they said, if the needle had gone inward Instead of outward my hf would have been lost." THE MUTUAL FRIEND.

Aa eccentric Duke or Alhole, in lSfli), for no apparent reason, closed to tourists a lovely glen on hU estate. Indignant letters, condemning his ac tion, thereujioii appeared in the news papers, and John Leech jiortrayed the old Duke In t'tinr.h as a "Scotch Dog in the Manger." The decision was hoou reversed -whether or not as a wult of the newspaper war does not matter, but subsequently events proved that the Duke hore the daring caricaturist no malice. Soon after the druwing had appear ed. Leech, sketch-book in hand, was wandering about the Athole estate, when a horseman approached, attend ed by a groom. "What i vour name," asked the rider, "and w'hst are you doing here?" "I am an artist," said the intruder, "ami my name is Leech. "Not John Leech?" "Yes, John." The artist felt sure thai he was about to receive a sharp reprimand for having held a noble Duke up to ridi cule, aud mildly said that be would not iutrude farther, but would return to his inn. "No, sir," said the stranger, "no inn for you to-night. You must dine and sleep at mv house. , I am the Duke of Athole." Then tire Duke told the servaut to dismount, insisted that Leech should take his place, and the two rode off to gether. The road to the castle lay through a rough country, and culminated in a narrow and broken path, withaclilT on one side and a precipice on the other. The arlisl hesitated. "Has he brought me here to break my neck?" thought he. Then he tim iillv advanced, and leuched the Duke, who had sKjpped for him at a point where the path was still mote danger ous. "Are you the man. sir, who has maligned me iu I'hikIiT' inquired the Duke, liercely. "Your tiraee," said Leech, nervous lv. "we -we - thai i. nearly every one. has done something that he -he regrets having done. I am very or rv I regret very much that antlhino I liate done should have given you an noyance." Then lh Duke's a fleeted tiereeuess incited into the jovial manner -aid to lie peculiar Ni him. and the two rode nIT pleasantly together. Al I he castle Leech was assigned a room, and there bewailed, hour after hour, for dinner to lie announced. Finally, fearing that je-had missed the summon, he rang the bell and a servant appeared. "lam afraid," said the airi-l. "that I did not hear I he litiiiT-lie!l. Is din ner ready?" "Not vet. sir." was the reply. "You will be informed when it is." "Is he going to starve me!'" thought Leech. Allot her hour pa-sed. nud in Met ual deiier:il ion he rang again, only to be told respeclfullv that dinner was not ready.
