The Niuth I:va tonoressional Dis
trict did i tec If piotid jct,terday by the
nomination of Major Joe Lyman, of
Counci. Bluffs. Ibis nomination, it
seems to us, is peculiarly strong in sev
eral respects.
First, it lays Banker Pusey ou the
shelf, by the nomination of a distin
guished citizen of Council Bluffs, who
is an abler man than Congressman
Pusey in every re p:ct. Jud;e Lyimn
is one of the ablest lawyers of the Iowa
bar, a self made man in every paiticu
lar, an orator and advocate of rare
power, aud a gallant soldier when his
country needed his services.
This nomination by the Ninth Iowa
District insures an additional republi -can
member in congress from that
S'tte, tnJ tomes to a man who has
never been :v place seeker in any sense.
It i a fit nomination and will be en
dorsed by the people across the river.

Shortly after 11 p. m. last evening,
the janitor of the lumber yard kicked
six pickets off the fence, and the
Ktiikh t the Bachelor's Club filed
through the aperature.
Up in the north east corner of the
yard some of llichcy's first quality
Mooring had been arranged in seats and
here the club was soon gathered.
The roll call found the following of
ficers present:
(J rand Joss, Cul. It u finer, Grand
EiiULcia'or, Judge Crite9, Grand Fiddle
.Sticks C. Whopper Sherman, Grand
Watchman of Connor Backer Ramsey,
Grand collector of Delinquent Assess
ments Gen. Krohler, Grand Keeper of
the Sacred Belies W. Mickelwait,
Grand Janitor of the Lumber Yard J.
Smiling Hartman, and a quorum of
members.
The Grand Bnunciator read a chap
ter from the democratic platform and
recited the democratic litany. The en
tire club then ranged itself in line and
sung the club ode, the first, verse run
ning aa follows:
"We are a loyal crew;
And our candidate's a beauty.
We all are patriots true
And hope to scoop tho booty."
If any pedestrian was homeward
plodding his weary way about this
time and imagined he heard a cat fight
in the lumber yard, he will please re
member the cat story.
Following the singing of the ode,
tho Grand Fiddlesticks secured the
floor and launched forth in a speech
on foreign immigration. It took the
c mbined efforts of the Grand Joss, the
Enunciator and a scantling to call him
to order, and when the loquacious mem
ber had been laid upon the ground and
the Grand Keeper of the Sacred Relics
seated upon him, to keep him in order,
the Grand Joss announced the initia
tion of a candidate, a convert from re
publicanism, and the applause was
loud and loa continued. The Grand
Watchman of Connor proceeded to clear
a space for initiation, and the Keeper
proceeded to display the Sacred Relics;
this move liberated the Grand Fiddle
stick?, who at once arose, and proceed
with his speech on foreign immigra
tion. The garrulous member was not
to be squelched this time; he wa9 load
ed tor the session, and the question of
foreign immigration had to be settled
then and there ; an hour rolled by, and
the introductory was only well under
way; tho belated moon rose and
climbed the sky, and the speech con
tinued; cocks crew their early morning
matins, and the speech went on; hours
before the club had adjourned the in
itiation and silently withdrew, but the
speech showed no signs of adjourn
ment. Oh, it was a powerful speech,
-rid early workmen going forth to la
bor, walked a block out ot their way to
escape it; while today Jus Richey in
sists that a man can sit on a plank in
the yard and learn more about foreign
immigration than statesmen ever
dreamed before.
One of the Quest pieces of work ever
douft at the B. & M. shops here is the
entire rebuilding of the Pullman coach,
that was wrecked on the "cannon ball"
this summer. The work is now well
on toward completion, and the Pull
man coach shops, with their extra
skilled workmen, never turned out a
finer piece of work than Master Me
chanic Hawksworth is doing at the
shops here. Much of the finishing
work inside the Pullman coaches is
carved work with the most expensive
woods; but in the shops here there are
some of the Bohemian workmen who
are artists in this especial work, and
they are doing their part ol the work
in constructing the coach in a most ac
ceptable maiincr. A Pullman coach
costs upwards of $13,000, and the shops
here are just as capable of turning out
that class of costly and skilled work as
any kind, and we doubt if there are any
general railroad shops in the west that
can approximate to the work done in
the Burlington shop in this city of
Plattsmouth.

Thoughts li'i v and old weri present
ed last evening, based up ui Col. 2,11.
Christ as "all and in all" was viewed
as associated with the Father in cre
ation, and devising (if we may be al
lowed the term) a plan to put man up
on another probation, as he had failed
in the first trial, and was under the
ban of death. lie is seen profl'erii.g to
pay the penalty of that death, and thus
bring ruined man back from the land
of the enemy. He is seen going with
Israel while en route lrom Egypt to
Canaan, 1 Cor., 10; 1-4, and later,
clothed with humanity, passing the va
rious decades of life fiom infancy to
mature years, tasting all the bitterness
of man's probationary experience, be
ing tempted on all points, yet without
in, Ileb., 4; 13. Again he is viewed
agoniziug with the Father, as ho pre
pares to receive tho last bitter cup, and
sweats great drops of blood in Getb
semena, is deserted by all earthly
friends, aud grapples with the grim
monster alone. As the sou of God
yields himself to the powers ot death,
saddened nature refuses to look upon
the scene and curtains the world in
darkness, as the Lord of Glory bows
the head and in his characteristic, gen
tle tone says: "It is finished!''
As the third morning dawns the
shackles of the tomb are broken, the
conqueror comes forth, ere long he ris
es and a cloud receives him out of the
sight of the anxious beholders. Men
in shining garments (angels) say he will
come again in like manner, Acts, 1; 11,
for what ? That where He is, there wo
may be also, John, 14; 1-3.
Now, more than 1 ,800 yearB stretcn
their weary length between us and that
period. For more than a hundred
years the signs that mark the Lord's
return have been exposed to view.
With the latest definite prophetic pe
riod in the past, we wait the glad an
nouncement of the Lord's return,
Matth., 24; 42-44. The third division
of the Bible subjects are now to be pre
sented. Tonight the following will be exam
ined: "The soul of man; is it mortal or
immortal?" "Man in death ; is he con
scious or unconscious?"
