Ac cording to rumor the B. & 31, will soon lay a double track through this way to make room for their trains.

Babbitt, the democratic candi date who l.as bjtn hugging our street corners for several days past, trying to work up some democratic en husiams, left on the wet-bound train this morning looking some a hat disconsolate. A. J. Ravanaugh fell from a buijd ing on which he was working in Omaha yesterday afternoon and died last even ing, Two carpenters fell from a scaffold ing on the new 31. E. Church there and were seriously hurt. Such accidents are too frequent to not be the result of carelessness. The bridge on Vine, between Gth and 7th streets was widened to-da by filling in the sides of the approaches, also the one on 7th street was repaired and widened and the street car track laid across it. The force of men nt work is large and things fairly buzz. j Keep Away From There. From tlie Ik'c. Union No. 50, Brotherhood of Carpen ters and Joiners, ut Los Angeles, Cal., have issued a circular of warning to the mechunicjind laboring man, which should be heeded by those classes. The union sets fortli in their circular that the pub lished boom of milk and honey on the Pacific coast is iictitious, and is the work of irresponsible leeches whose livrng de pends on an overcrowded market of laboicrs, and "unfortunately the poor dupe, who sacrifices his little earthly poacssiiitm to enable him to reach the Pacic coast, in quest of steady work and high wages, looks in vain for fulfillment of these golden promises." It is positively asserted that the greater number live from hand to mouth. Rents aro enormously high; a cottage of four rooms rents from $2 to $50 a month. Coal is $10 a ton, butter 40 cents, eggs 40 cents, arid other things in proportion. The average of wages is about 50 cents per day more than eastern wages, but the cost of living more than counterbalances. Out of door labor can be pursued for about ten months in the year; but the man who attempts it is sure to break down. Tropical climates will not permit an un ceasing round of hard mauual labor. There is a gradual and stealthy under mining process which the victim heeds generally too late to repair the evil. This morning a rait with a tent pitched on a part of it for a covering was seen floating slowly down the river about nine o'clock. A story in th'o Omaha JJee probably concerns the same parties. From that paper it seems the occupants of the raft were two men' with their wives and two children, one of the men's name is Jule Tillson. The parly hailed from Niabrara county where they had squatted on claims but were crowded of by legitimate settlers, they having no money to hold the claims, and the soil being to poor to produce well, they made a rait to return to Arkansas. At Sioux City the party was saddened by a little girl who was with them auel who was prone to samnambulism, who fell from the bout during the night and wiu, of course drowned, but not missed until morning. From the Bee it appears their travel must be slow as it snys they U ft Omaha yesterday morning and only pass ed here to-day. A new musical society has been or ganized consisting of ten ladies and gen tlemen, who arc well known in the 'city, as musicians, and there is no doubt but what they will do themselves proud as soon as a few rehersals are indulged in. The city can boast of several societies of this kind and we" are pleased to able to give this information. In this art Platts mouth is able to "hold her own." The names of the persons constituting this new club arc: Soprano, 3Ii3s 3Iaud Barns and Mrs. Geo. E. Dovey; allocs. 31rs. D. A. Campbell, 3Iiss Gertie Koarney; ten nors, 3Ir. R. B. Windham, 3Ir. Jas.

Pollock; accompanist, 3Iiss Emma Johnson; director, 3Iiss Paul. - -Plattsmouth is entitled to credit for every thing she does, both at home and abroad, for it all rcdouns to the adver tisment and benefit of the city and its interest; and certainly one of the features of our town is the Plattsmouth Glee club. Their latest efforts were at Lincoln at the reception given to the Irish members of parlament, by John Fitzgerald Esq. Their reception there was certainly a suc C2S, and was appreciated every time they sang by hearty encores. This is certainly an honor too, especially so, as the Lincoln Glee club was present and sang well. We wish the Glee club all the success possible. A state reputation they already have. Markied. Yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock at the home of the bride's parents in Council Bluffs, Iowa, Jlr. Thos. II Knctts anil Miss Nellie J. Smith were united in the bonds of matrimony, Re v. W T. Smith, .father of the bride, officiating" There were present a large party of friends and relatives. The presents were elegant and useful. Af.cr the ceremony and congratulations the usual festiviths were indulged in. The we lded couple have the good wit lies of a large; circle of friends. In last evening's Herald we stated that the B. & 31. band would appear on 3Iain street and play for 3Iorrison & Thornburg, at the opening of their new restaurant. But are sorry to say that so many of the members were at Lincoln, that they could not appear. 3Iessrs 3Ior rison & Thornburg were sorry to disap point o v. any,, but as they were not made acquainted with the fact until after we lud gone to press, the "ni'stakc was unavoidable.

"Tho greatest place for jugglers and ma gicians is South America," replied the ma gician. "A prestidigitator went to Hio Ja neiro last year, and in a four weeks' engage ment made v3,C00. The veneration with which they are held in some parts of Brazil and other South American countries is amus ing. The ignorant classes follow them in crowds when they appear on tho 'streets, the half breed negroes especially. They fancy every ill that happens to them during the t Lme the magicians are there is due to them, and it is necessary for thorn to have police protection.

Tho scullion thero said that it was i:ct on its hook, and would look for it. Ho then began to iish for it among about fifty keys iu a hole underneath tho place we hn 1 dropped our keys. Having hunted all these keys through, he said it was not there, lie had overlooked it in the mul tiplicity of keys.
