A stranger visited Dr. Shopman's res
ulence yesterday. The mother is over
joyed, and the father is a man who will
safely guide the little treasure-Stp

gent and lovely womanhood
As item came over the telephone to
this office today. It was in the shape of
an electric freak that played a tatoo on
the telephone bell causing that instrn
ment to emit sparks of affection that were
not very acceptible to the itemizer.
W. J. Owens, of this city, shot two
beavers near Oreapolis tho other day.
One of tnem was of an enormous size.
These animals are worthy of interest at
the present day, as in a few years they
will have become as scarce as the Buffalo.
Our subscribers would confer a great
favor if they would place a letter-box
near their door or gateway, in which the
carrier-boy could deposit their paper.
As it is now, he is just as liable to throw

the other local fabers and sinaors of thii
city.
W. E. Paul and Ed. Shriever, repre
senting the M. M. Co. of Omaha, have
started a branch in this city of selling
goods on the installment plan. We knew
Mr. Shriever years ago in Des Moines,
Iowa, where he always bore a good repu
talion for honesty, shrewdness, and gen
tlemanly behavior.
Mr. McIIugh was at Omaha last
night when No. 6 came into the B. & M.
depot. He says the engineer took the

Mr. John Waynaan, who has worked
in the machine shops in the yards took
charge of the engine at the waterworks
yesterday at 4 p. m. Mr. M. Travers the
former engineer, and s competent man
in machine shops on a locomotive, hand
ed in his resignation to Mr. Bush several
days ago. This appointment and resit;
nation have no connection with the
Brotherhood strike.
Mr. McIIugh of Malvern, Iowa, of
whom we spoke ast Monday concerning
the bringing of a manufactury to Platts
mouth, will attend the Board of Trade
meeting tonight to consult on the sub
ject. He has already promised employ
ment to two or three machinists of this
city and seems confident of coming here,
although the people of Malyern havs of
fered him special inducement to stay in
their town. We wish him success in his
project.
To form a good idea of the appear
ance of a revolving light in the tower of
a lighthouse at sea, a person sh sold stand
near the high school on a dark and very
windy night and look in the direction of
the headlight at Pacific Junction. A
bottle in the pocket causes the imagina
tion to be more excited and realistic by
the rolling motion of the body. This
will convey the idea of standing on a
vessels' deck, and the manner in which
the lights around town bob up and down,
will give the amateur seaman a notion
that he is entering the harbor of some
large city. "ffe can not vouch for the

The Herald was an aaamoly yaster-
day. While the local page was in ap-
parent sympathy with the strikers, the
editorial page was full of expression of
bitter censure." Journal.
The reason of the local editor's sympa
thy is on account of his being a "Union
man ," an honorary memember of Typo
graphical Union, No. 190. Wo do not
care two straws for the opinion of the
strike by the writers on the staff of this
payer, nor their politics, neither do they
bother themselves aboat what we think
on the matter. Each writer on a news
paper has a duty to perform, a separate
line of thought and sentiment to execute,
and is generally "cut out" by nature for
the detail he is allowed to perform. A
nan is net employed on a newspaper be
cause his views coincide with the pro
prietor or the others on the staff. If he
lias the ability, he is allowed to belong
to any nationality, or have any shade of
belief. The only restriction that is plac
ed on his opinion, outside of the regular
established newspaper rules, is, that if he
is a democrat (like the writer) working
on a republican paper, he must keep his
polities out of the paper, but is at liberty
to talk as much as he likes in the office or
out of it. The same rule applies to a
republican reporter working on a demo
cratic sheet.
The Journal illustrates this more fully
in yesterday's issue as follows
"Word comes from Chicago by the
press dispatches that engineers are as
plentiful there as specks in fly-time, and
one correspondtnt tells how fifty candi
dates for the positions vacated by the
strikers passed a successful examination
in an hour or two". And yet in almost
the very same column it is related how
a night express train went oyer the Bur
lington was sent out in charge of an en
gineer whose only qualification for the
position was the fact that he had served
as a gnpman on a cable car."
Anather paragraph says :
"A row is imminent in the the editorial
department of that paper,
Those employed in Tub Hbbald from
the proprietor down to the "devil," al
though, perhaps, differing vastly os many
subjects, have the sincerest regard for
each-others happiness and welfare, and
the prosperity of the paper.
Even, if such was not the case, it would
! nothing unusual, for the public are
not "As moulded like in nature's mist,
and therefore appreciate a difference of
opinion. When an edi'or says he "knows
all about it" on some momentous ques-
tion, he is standing on the apex of the
'
north pole supported by his own exhal
tations.
About 183.4-4 two editors run a paper

two men were so antagonistic that they
seldom spoke to each other, and used to
write their articles in separate rooms. Yet
the public liked the paper and proved
by their increased patronage that they
considered it one of the best country
newspapers in Iowa.
Janauschok.
"Meg Merrilies" is identified in the
minds of most American play-goers with
tlie lame ot tue greatest of American
actresses Charlotte Cushman, whose
greatest character in her latter days was
the Oypsy heroine of Scott s noyel. Such
character as "Meg" is limited in its
range and provides less scope for variety
at presentation than most well-known
dramatic heroines. If this were not the
cane, and if Cushman had not already
pre-emptied the reputation to be achieved
by a performance of "Meg, Mme. Jan
uuschek performance of the same char
acter at the Chestnut Street Opera House,
last night would entitle her to the same
credit that Cushman won. In fact Mmo
Janauscheck's performance is all the bet
ter for standing comparison with Cush
man. It was a great performance, re
sembling, but uulike Cushman's. The
great Czech actress puts more tenderness
and human sympathy into the character,
and was less a witch in appearance than
Miss Cushman. Thero have been few
geater bise of acting or of elocution than
Mme. Janauscbek's rendering of the
famous lullaby. In fact, the whole con
ception and performance were marked by
clear, forceful, vigorous and intense
sympathy which found its highest ex
pression in her desire to be laid to rest at
the door of her ruined sheihng. Phila

Lightning struck the residence ot

from the outside of the building to a

the room in which the family were seated

THE STRIKE.
The) Situation Today
In PlaUtaV
I mouth.
No radical change has as yet taken
J place in the matter of the great strike,
both sides still remaining firm.
The movements on the rail here are un
frequent. The IJ. & M. succeeded early
this morning in making up a train of
emigrant goods and liyo stock and send
ing it westward. Passenger trains Nos.
4 and 5 pased through this forenoon !0
and CO minutes late, respocUvely; both
well filled with passengers. J. J. Ilines
was at the throttle of No. 5, and a jr
switchman at Lincoln drove No. 4. Ten
Pinkerton men came in on No. 4 from
Lincoln, and eight or nine engineers am
firemen came down on her from Omaha.
These latter men are said to be reccutly
from Pennsylvania.
Following No. 4. this morning th
Schuyler train (detainect here siuce Mun
day,) crossed over to the Junction with
several Pinkerton men on board.
The situation at Lincoln and Oniuh
is reported quiet. Two engines worketl
all night at Lincoln in the B. & M. .yards
and eight more were fired this morning
ready for duty.
Here in Plattsmouth all things are quiet

HIGH SCHOOL. NOTES.
The principle theme of conversation
Monday morning among the teachers,
was the marriage of one of their number.
The question as to who would be th
next, was not fully settled. One of them
was heard repeating the adage, "It might
have been" But, alas!
Where! Oh, where! Was the teacher
who should have had charge of the din
ner room Monday? Echo, answer where f
She wasn't there.
One of the steam pipes in room No
sprung a leak Monday; but our janitor
with a hammer and chisel soon repaired
the damage.
Miss Kerne y. teacher in room is. was
taken very sick Tuesday morning an
was obliged to go home. Miss Hattie
Chapman took chare of the room. This
lady has a bright intellect, and perform
her duties as a teacher in a manner taat
might well be taken as an example by
others.
Miss Carrie Holloway has charge of
East 4th ward room 1, in the absence
the regular teacher, who has gone south
on a pleasure trip.
