ago, in Oconee county, "a girl married
at the age of nine years, and before her
tenth birthday she became a mother.
When married, the girl was as well de
veloped aa a woman and weighed 14G
pounds. Her husband was 45 years of
age. The family were white, and moved
t Alabama, where they now reside."
Talk about railroad discrimination!
If the shippers of Plattsmouth are not
gulled more than any one in the west,
please inform the public to the contrary.
In conversation with a leading shiper
of Plattsmouth today, we learned that
the charges on a car from Omaha to
Chicago is $35, while from Piatt moutb
to the same point it is $49, a differencee
of $14; stock can be shiped from here to
Omaha and then on to Chicago, as cheap
a? it can from this place direct to Chica
go. Again a car can be had from Platts
mouth to Omaha for $14, or a charge of
almost oae half the rate to Chicago, for
22 miles. The distance from Omaha to
Chicago is 500 miles and the fixed rate
as above stated, is $35 a car.
Speaking of the scarcity of adver
tising, it is astonishing how the people
of this city look at it. Most of them
s;em to think it does them no good.
They look upon the money they pay out
for it as a sort of contribution to keep
the papers alive. They regard keeping
the papers as a public duty and only do
it because they would be ashamed to
hare to confess to eastern frieads that
they lived in a city ef 30,500 people that
hadn't a paper to bless itself with. They
don't see any real use of newspapers un
less they are waked up to it by a smooth
and pertinacious solicitor and then they
only admit it momentarily, returning to
their Rip Van Winkleism before the col
lector gets around with his bill. They
then get mad at the newspapers that per
sist in bleeding the community, order
out the ad. that they contracted fur t-ix
months, get one month insertion at long
time rates, and then swear off from ever
bein" robbed any more by such remorse

THE DAILY
WILL C. BSYAK'S CHIME
He
Is Bound Over to the District
Court for His Deviltry.
In (the case of Nellie C. Stark, the
pretty 18-year-old maid of Cedar Rapids,
who says that Will C. Bryan, the sprin
ter and cx-base-ballist, is the father of
her child, born out of wedlock just be
fore last Christmas, Justice Wade yester
day decided that: First, that if it did
not appear that the prosecutrix ever
authorized her attorneys to. compromise
the case by the payment of seventy dol
lars, and even if she had done so, the
case was of a quasi-criminal nature and
beyond the power of the prosecutrix to
compromise. As to the point of resi
dence, the court quoted several authori
ties sustaining his opinion that for all
legal purposes of bringing a suit of this
nature, the prosecutrix had established a
sufficient residence in Douglas county.
In view of his decision the court held
Bryan in bonds of $1,200 for his appear
ance at the next term of the district
court. Bail was immediately offered and
accepted, J. W. Foster signing the bond.
After the rendering of the opinion, Bryan
called Attorney Biler, counsel for the
prosecutrix, a thief and a perjurer, ac
cusing him of bad faith to his client and
himself (Bryan), and threatened him with
a whipping some time not very far in
the future.
Miss Stark's story of her betrayal by
the fellow Bryan, is that while a waitress
at the Morgan house, in Des Moines, dur
ing January, 1887, Bryan seduced her
He then prevailed upon her to accompany
him in his travels as his wife, visiting
several cities east and south, and finally
coming to Omaha last September in a
delicate condition.
Bryan had, it seems, some little honor
left in him, and he paid her bills duriug
her confinement, but ceased to contribute
either to her support or the child. Bryan
did not attempt to deny the story on the
contrary admitted the facts, but set up
two specific causes of defense; first, that
all claims of indebtedness due had been
settled by hi3 delivery of $70 in full of
all damage; and, second, that Miss
Stark, being a minor, could not establish
a residence in Douglas county in legal
contemplation, for the purpose of bring
ing suit."
The above from the Omaha Republican
may be somewhat of a surprise to our
readers. It will be remembered that this
man Bryan secured a marriage license
from Judge Russell, and was married to
a Miss Whctsel last week, by Rev. W. B.
Alexander. These parties registered at
the hotel as being from Council Bluffs,
but Miss Whetscl told that her home was
at Mt. Vernon, 111., while others claimed
her residence was in this State.
Fought and Conquered.
The "Fighting Chaplain,"' known in
private as Rev. John Hogarth Lozier,
gave his celebrated entertainment of soug,
recitation and address, at Dunning's op
era house last evening, and a large au
dience assembled to hear this able man,
who is said to be as an orator second to
only the world-famous John B. Gough.
In comedy or pathos the reverend gentle
man alike moved his appreciative hear
ers, and every one present was delighted
with the entertainment they received."

ery way worthy of our respect and regard.
Resolved, That we sincerely condole
with the family of the diseased on the
dispensation with which it has pleased
Divine Providence to afflict them, and
commend them for condolence to Him
who ordered all things for the best, and
whose chastisements are meant for mercy.
Resolved, That this heartfelt testimon
ial of our sympathy aad sorrow be for
warded to the family of our departed
friend by the secretary of this meeting.

Old Times in Louisiana.
Those "society balls" were conducted
with great propriety and reserve. The
claim of every person of both sexes to bo
admitted having lieen previously deter
mined by the responsible and trusty com
mittee, there was a sort of temporary
and conventional equality on the terp
sichorean floor, and. therefore, every geiv
tlcman had the privilege to invite a lady
without the formality of an introduction
to figure in the dance as his partner.
After it was over he escorted her back
respectfully to her seat, witliout presum
ing, if unknown and not dulv presented.
to remain standing before her, or to sit
bv her side, to continue the conversation
or prolong the accidental acquaintance.
During the intervals of dancing the
gentlemen walked up and down between
the rows of ladies that densely lined the
hall, some merely bowing as they passed,
to those whom they knew and others
stopping to converse. No woman, mar
ried or single, joined in this promenading
with a male companion, as is the custom
in these present days, and the eye of a
lynx could not have detected the slight
est flirtation. The word itself was not
known, for the tiling it means is for
Louisiana a modern invention, which
had not then been patented and brought
out for public use. In fact, this peculiar
pastime would have been impossible to
attempt. It would have produced a so
cial earthquake. American Magazine.
The Color of the Sea.
Artists always Eeeni at a loss to deal
with the color of the sea, and few are
those who please the public. Professor
Tyndall has come to their aid. He recog
nizes three principal hues in sea waves
blue, green and yellow. Solid particles
held in the water act as minute mirrors
reflecting the light which penetrates the
liquid. The rays which are sent out,
after having traversed only a thin
6tratum of water, preserve their yellow
parts; but if the reflections are attenu
ated the water appears green; and if they
do not exist at all, the sea being clear
and free from muddy matters, the color
is deep blue. In an indigo sea the crest
of tho waves will api?ar green on ac
count of their lack of thickness. Sea
weed, animalcules and other local or ac
cidental causes may have much influ
cre3 on the color of the water. Court
