The coasting carnival on high school
hill last night was a splendid success, and
without accident, further than a few
harmless upsets. The street was well
lighted and well guarded, so that mis
haps were hardly possible from colli
sions with teams, and each lot was will
on its way before the following one was
permitted to start, and by the careful
managemens by the committee all went
well.
"Our paper is two days later this week,"
writes a Nebraska editor, "owing to an
accident to our press. When we started
to run the edition Wednesday night : s
usual, one of the guy-ropes gave way,
allowing the forward gilder-fiuke to fall
and break as it struck the Hunker -Hopper.
This of course, ns anyone who knows
anything about a press will readily un
derstand, left the gang plank with only
the flip-flap to support it, which als-o
dropped and broke off the wopper-chock.
This loosened the flunking from between
the tamrod and the flipper-snatcher which
also caused trouble. The report that the
delay was caused by orcr-indulgencc in
intoxicating stimulants by ourself is a
tissue of falsehoods, the peeled appear
ance of our right eye being caused by
our goin into the hatchway of the pre,
in our anxiety to start it. and pulling the
coupling-pin after the sapbang was brok
en, which caused the dingus to rise up
and welt us in the optic. We expect a
brand-new gilder-fluke on this after
noon's train."

finest we have ever witnessed. Every
thing was produced as advertised. The
dramatic portion was presented by a very
strong company. The scenic and me

beautiful and original. The sale of seats

THE OVISY nAKON.
The Conried Opera Company will pro
duce Johann Strauss' latest and most
successful opera, 4 The Gypsy Baron," at
the Waterman Opera House Monday
evening, January 10th, with the original
company of sixty people, costumes, and
a special car load of scenery. The Vien
na Correspondent of the London Daily
News writes about the "Gypsy Baron.'
"The Libretto is from a novel of Jo-
kay, and the music is by Johann Strauss.
What wonder the box office is taken bv
storm every morning, and that after nine
o'clock not a ticket is to be had for love
or money ? Strauss, carried away by the
brightly original subject, has surpassed
his former works. It is diffi
cult to imagine a series of scenes more
interesting, more varied and more pic
turesque, accompanied by music which is
at once tender, gay and original.
Two Cents Per Mile.
From the Ohio Stvte Journal.
"Well," said a prominent railjoad
official of this city last evening, when
asked his opinion of the bill introduced
in the Senate fixing the rate of passenger
transportation on the roads in this state
at 2c per mile, "I do not think that if the
bill is passed it will materially affect the
railroads, It would be natural to suppose
that it would reduce the earnings at first,
but the new conditions would readily ad
just themselves. It would largely increase
the amount of travel, A uniform rate of
2c per mile was fixed on New York
roads by the legislature of that state and
though there was considerable complaint
from the railroad companies at- first, the
plan is workincr satisfactorily now. I
think the bill introdaced in the Ohio Leg
islature comes in well at this time. I do
not btlieye the railroads of the state will
fight it or furnish any strenuous oppo
sition to its passage. 1 lie people are
clamoring for some legislation of this
sort, and it will prove an incentive to
business rather than a detriment.

ror he sprang from his seat and rushed
out the door to the platform and leaped
off. The train at that moment was
crossing a bridge sixty feet high, about
two miles east of here. The unfortunate
man made a wild leap into the air. Be
fore he had half way reached the ground
he froze solid and stuck fast thirty feet
from the bottom. When the tram reached
the station a party was organized to go
to his relief. A cowboy lariated the in
animate form in mid air' and so hard
was it frozen that it took the urited ef
forts of four horses to imll it down to
the ground."
Yesterday between 3 and 4 o'clock
a strange man was noticed by John
Fitzpatnck standing in front of Bocck
& Birdsali's shoe store on south main
street. John thought there was some-
thin? wroii2T. so he watched the fellow
until he saw him jerk five pairs of over
shoes from the peg where they are hung
as samples, and run for a back alley.
John took cross lots and overhauled the
dead beat back of Frank Carruths store.
John asked him to come with him but
he said no, when John gave him a gentle
tap which brought him to the ground,
and also to the realization that John
meant business. He was taken to the
county jail where he will remain for trial
until next Monday.
