Fire Escape that, was on., exhibition at
No. 17 Park-Bow,-the home of the Hy
enas. The escape is a little iron-' box
the size of two bricksi and is intended
to take the place of two bricks in the
wall of a building. A box is placed in
every fifth row 'of bricks, and between
the windows.' The doors open at the
touch of the hand or foot, and a com
plete and invisible ladder is in use at
once. Tho hand clutches an iron bar
in the box beneath, It i3 one of the
most simple of contrivances. It does
not disfigure the building, as the
doors of the boxes, are painted
the same color as the bricks, and the
passer-by would never suspect that a
tire-escape was buried in the wall where
the boxes are placed. Burglar alarms
are attached to the boxes bo that the
festive burglar would find the fire es
cape no escape for him. At the exhibi
tion representatives of the fire depart
ment were in attendance, and the spec
tators marvelled at the celebrity with
which men raced up and down the front
wall. New York Morning Journal.

Train No. 3 which went west from
here Saturday night, was delayed near
Hastings two or three hours during
the hardest part of the storm, which
was much more severe in that vicinity
than in this. The wind was so strong,
and blowing In the right direction that
about a dozen freight cars were sent
rolling down the track. Three of
them were ditched, which stopped the
rest wiin one exception, which came
on down the track alone. The storm
was a-) blinding that the engineer
could not ge the car soon enough to stop
thetiain; but he reversed his engine
and put on the air brake which checked
tnespeet so that no serious, if any,
damage was done. These are trying
times to railroad men.

The rain of Sunday moining caused
something less thar. a quarter section
of earth aud stons to tear loose from Mo
ther earth and slid-; from the bluiTdowu
on to the railroad track, about half way
between A6hlaud and South Bend, just
as a freight train was passing. The eu-
ginc had passed, but the tender and
several freight cars were caught and
part ot it dumped into the river. Xo
one was injured but it was a narrow es
cape. The engineer, whose name is
Kavnor, is the voungest engineer on
the road, but can now hold an "experi
ence meeting' with any of them. This

wreck cleared away so that the road

Astronomy.
A man up in Platte county, this
state ias c aught on to a new idea about
the etherial bodies. lie knows just
what comets are for, while all our best
astronomers have called these wander
ers erratic and something past fimiiucr
out, this new astronomer without an
observatory or telescope unravels the
mvstery just as easy us falling off a
log. Comets are f.ir the sole purpose
ot keeping tbe solar system in balance,
at tunes he states that all the planets
get on one side of the sun, when in
rushes a comet and keeps things from
becoming lop-sided. Our fears are
gone now and we shall sleep better than
we have hitherto. Ave have always
thought that there wae dancer of the
planets congregating too much on one
side, especially during some exciting
political campaign aud yanking this
world of ours into no o'lt of space,
but this comet business comes in op
portunely and brings the recalcitrant
one-sided worlds to taw. Yes, we are
happy now. Real estate and town lots
have advanced iu price in Platte county
since this writer in the Columbus Jour
nal has advanced this theory.

An Ohio Editor on the Excursion-
As consciousness and day dawns up
on us, we find ourselves nearing the
western boundary of Iowa. The fact
that a change of air and scenery,
coupled with our ride, in no way di
minishes the appetite, was displayed as
the party took their seats in the dinning
car that morning. At 9 o'clock wc ar
rived at Pacific Junction, where we
cross the muddy .Missouri- river on one
of the finest bridges ever constructed,
and enter the city of Plattsmouth, Ne
braska. From the 6tart we were led to
believe that outside of the courtesies
extended to us by the Burlington road
we would ue turown entirely upon our
own resources and our surprise can
readily be imagined when, upon pulling
lip to the depot in Plattsmouth wo
found upon the platform about half of
her population (which numbers six
thousaud), with a band ot niuic and
carriages to convey us about the beau
tiful little citv which nestles anion r
tho hills and foliage, and decked wiiu!
neat arid substantial dwellings. Upon j
alighting foom tlie train Mayor ijeo. ,
S. bmith s'epped forward, and m a
very neat speech gave us a warm wel
come to thij city of seven hills." In
a hasty driyc through the well-kept
streets wo found a thriving little city,
with numerous industries, which give
employment to her people, prominent
among . hicli are tne Durlington and
.Missouri shop.?, which alone employ
four hundred msu, and where every
thing which goes to make up a railroad
train Js made. Having given three
h.-firty cheers for the hospitable littie
city, we retraced our course to Pacific
Junction, and are soon on our way to

The Cass Connty Cook Stove-
The first stove made in Cass county is
on exhibition at the hardware store of
Jno. Duke. It is christened the "Cass
county." and is a neat, smooth job, cast
and put together at the Cass couuty
iion works. George Schrader, of Three
Groves, says he has lived in Cass coun
ty since the early days, when cotton -wood
was a legal tender for currency
and coru brsad a luxury, and he can
hare it to say he helped carry the first
cooking stove manufactured in Nebras
ka in Mr. Duke's store for exhibition.

they are learning to be useful; and aside

Thanks to the Plattsmouth IIekald
for your misrepresentation. You are
very generous iu your compliments.
The reporter; "Tip Top," I must admit
was so badly nixed that he could not
tell the difference between Orepoalis,
politics, or a potato patch. In fact he
could not tell the difference between a
bottle and a revolver; for as an old
German-drew a bottle out of his hip
pocket, 4i Tip" threw up his hands and
in airony exclaimed, u for God's sake
don't shoot, for I am not fit to die."
He fired, and "Tip" smiled Louis

The Observer is mistaken " he. never
