A newspaper must be hard pushed
for an item when they publish an "ad"
in their local column, "Dry pool, five

elevating.

about time iie was canonized and a me
morial window placed in some cathedral
in which he would pose with Kichard K.
Fox on one side and the motto "Do unt
others as you would they should do un

In tha course of conversation this
morning with J. A. Connor, of this city
tiiat gentleman casually uttered some re
marks worthy of study and consideration.
Said he: "Napoleon once asked one of
his favorite marshals if he believed in
Jesus Christ. 'No, I do not!1 was the re
ply. 'You should then,' said the great
fatalist, for Hannibal, Tamerlane, Alex
ander, Julius Civsar and myself, have ac
quired kingdoms by force and bloodshed.
We are but the footstools of fortune anr'
our work will die, and perish, and pa
away. Christ gained kingdoms by kind
u?ss,that will last forever."
'Til knock tha stuffing out of you."
Those words were uttered, with a drunk
en accent, Saturday night at 7:45 by Mr.
Koland, a short-time resident of this city
aged about forty-five, painter by trade,
tall of statue. He had assumed a pugil
istic attitude and was addressing a
tailor's dummy that stood outside a cloth
ing store on Main street. Policeman J.
Fitzpatrick said, "You had better 20 and
get yourself a bed somewhere." As he
couldn't be coaxed to do that and want
cd to raise a disturbance, he was arrested.
On his person wa3 found a plug of to
bacco and $7.o0 in cash. Today he was
assessed five dollars and costs.
3lr. C'artright was buried this after
noon.
The K. C passenger due in this city at

Mrs. I Saker, an old lady who has
hcfeii an inrnito of the poor house fur the
past ten or twelve year", was buried this
afternoon. She had two sons, now resi
dents of Louisville, one of whom was in
attendance at the funeral. We are told
that the sons have not met their mother
during that long period.
Mr. II. Morris and wife, of San Antonio,
Tex., arrived in the city Saturday. Mr.
Morris was lately married to Miss Nellie
Myers, the sister of Mrs. li. Elson, wife
of the prominent clothier of this town.
This lady was a visitor to this city about
two years ago and formed many aoqu.iin
tances and friends through her ccurteous
and affable manners. Mr. Morris leaves
in a few days for New York to purchase
a' stock of goods for hi store in San An

This incident forcibly illustrates the
vicissitudes of an actor's life, where the
transition is so rapid from graye to gay
No allowances for trouble, sickness or
misfortune are made by tho audience,
but the comedian is expected to laugh
his hardest, no matter how heavy the
cloud of sorrow that hangs oyer his
destiny.
Mrs. F. J. Bicknell and family leave
tha city this evening for Fairmont, this
state. This lady is the esteemed wife of
the Mr. Bicknell who lately represented
the Singer Sewing Machine Co., and upon
whom the Journal jumped bo unmerci
fully, saying that he had "skipped the
country," because he left town in peor
circumstances and was unable to pay an
advertising bill he owed that paper. The
debt has since been paid. It would be a
simple act of justice for that paper to
now apologize for their slur on a man's
character, who was willing to do what
was right and honest, but prevented by a
cemplaint that effects a geod many ef
us, namely, poverty.

A SURE THING
Plattsmouth's Progress Faithfully
Portrayed.
Mr. H. Vo.sa, the architect for the now
block to be erected corner of Fourth and
Main for the Auhauser Busch Brewery
Co., arriyed in the city this morning ac
companied by Mr. Nack, a well known
contractor of Omaha, Mr. Mauiier, n
popular rcstauranter of Farnain street,
Omaha, and George Krrge, the general
agent of the brewery company from St.
Louis. All these gentlemen return to
their respective homes to:iight. Tho
object t.f their visit to this city is to com
plete arrangements for the completion of
the building, work ou which will be
commenced next week if this weather
continues. Mr. Yoss brought a finely
executed sketch of the buildiiig which is
placed in a frame about a yard square.
The drawing will be placed for inspec
tion of llioso interested, in McVey &
Weidman's saloon. Thu will gire the
boys who want to "take another" a good
excuse.
The building will be 44x90, two storit-s
high, with a hxseinent. entrance to which
will be on Fourth street with a railed
encloseure. The first story will have a
store front and be used by tie company.
The upper prt will be rented for bu.sine.is
olliccs. The ptiuetuie will be built of
brick manufactured in this city and
faced with St. Louis pressed brick. The
pediments and columns will be of Sioux
Falls red granite. Tho centre of tloi
front of the top of the building will
come to an apex or be of triangular form
on which will be. placed the heraldic
deyiee or trade mark of the company,
which rest rubles an eagle and their mon
ogram. The building will be an orna
ment to the city, costing about $;;5.00(
and a monument to Plattsmouth's enter
prise, we hope, to stimulate our citizens
to further efforts in that direction.
When everything 13 in running order
the compauy will employ a large num
ber of men.
The company are acting with great
magnanimity in the matter and will ac
cept five bids for the erection of the
building, three from contractors of this
city and two from Omaha. Our earnest
with is, that Plattsmouth "gets there."
The aid barn will be torn down tomor
row, and Mr. Madole, the county survey
or, has been appointed to superintend the
excavation for the new structure. A few
more such buildings on our Main street
and then we can "blow" in earnest.
There are about a dozen toughs who
loiter in the vicinity of the depet every
night. They are a cowardly set and when
they tackle anybody the party assaulted
has to be drunk or feeble. The present
police force are powerless in this nutter
becauss they cannot stand around that
spot all the time, but have t look alter
the interests of other parts of the city.
The remedy lies in appointing another
policeman 0:1 the night force to watch
that location and arrest the "gang" and
make them prove how they obtain money
to purchase their food and "bowl up"
night and day. This matter requires the
immediate attention by the city authori
ties as these vags are not residents of
Plattsmouth. but will remain here and
prey on humanity until they are compell
ed to go elsewhere.
Mr. Joe Swoboddy, a Bohemian by
birth, single, was buried this afternoon.
He died yesterday morning at his home
in the west part of town. He leaves two
sisteis and one brother, who will receive
six hundred dollars from the St.
Stanilus Society, a Bohemian Association
of which he was a number. Before his
death he was employed in the B. Tc
M. shops and owned the house in which
he lived.

Robert Fitch i having the annual
ill-luck that some farmers seem to have
always in waiting for them. During the
winter he lost all of his hogs but one
small shoat. This week he lost a horse
and has three more so lame that he can
not work them. They appear to have
rheumatism.
Oar mail clays hare been changed.
We now Ret our mail on Tuesday, Thurs
day and Saturday. The mail service on
this route is a novelty. The mail carrier
travels in a circle and always the same
way. hence we never have any return
mail. And it puts- the mail service so
out of joint that it takes six days for
the postmaster here to get a return pos
tal receipt for a registered letter from
Murray, only five miles away. The
change in the mail days we think is a
great improvement, but the circle service
is a square-toed nuisance and works a
great injury to the country postofficcs.
