The trial of the Pinkertons comes for hearing in Dovey'a room before Judge Stiles next Monday at 10 a.?m. Chas. L. Graves, justice of the peace for Rock Bluffs precinct, has resigned and D W. Curtis appointed in bis stead. The legal ability displayed by Math ew Gering, Esq., in the trial of the Pin kerton men is highly commended by le gal authorities. "Gentlemen most admire an innocent girlish, confiding woman, who sees no wrong in other hearts, becauso she has cone in berown." Zozo. Elmwood has been incorporated as a village with the following trustees : A. B. Dickson, George Hatch, N. R. Ilobbs, S. D. Eels and W. S." Waters. Rev. Clagett and Mr. Bilhorn, the evangelists will preach in the M. E. church tomorrow. The public are cor dially invited to come and hear them. The little Shetland pony and small cart owned by Charley Patterson is quite an unique novelty, and are both interest 'inr and attractive to those who have never seen such before. There was a tie for election for school board between B. Smith and m. "Wintersteen. They wi-1 probably cast lots to decide "who's who" at the next 4 city council meeting, Monday, 9th inst. The county commissioners have or dered . a tritl f road machinery te take place Monday, April 30, near this city. Different firni3 will exhibit. .If the trials are satisfactorv three machines will be bought. The cost of trial of State vs. M. P. Dannanv. the Pinkcrton man wno was tried for an assault on Mr. Zinn, was not allowed by the county commissioners as the case was instituted without the con sent of the county attorney. The secial givan by the 'T" last evening at the home of Mr. II. P. Whis- ler, was well attended. Vocal and in strumental music was indulged in and everyone went home feeling that they had spent an enjoyable evening. "We have noticed that several of our merchants send away for their office sta tionery, such as letter heads, bill heads, statements and envelopes. e ask you to give us this work as we can do it just as good and as cheap as they do in either Omaha or Lincoln. The votes will have to be counted again as to the validity of Richey for mayor. At a secret caucus en Vine street about 7:30 last night, another Mayer was elected. One peculiar featuro in the case is that the party elected belongs to the female gender and has the prettiest, an gelic and cherubic features of any Mayer in the United States. In the window of O. P. Smith's drug atere are on exhibition two little artistic gems in' water colors representing a ma rine scene and a landscape yiew. Miss A- Shephard, of this city, is the artist A person bas to be educated in such matters to thoroughly comprehend the skill dis played in their execution, and the bril liancy of imagination necessary fer the perspective and every feature of the drawings. If you want to expectorate, hack and cough up phlegm, then for heaven's sake do so, but spit in the road. It is disgust ing to write, to reacL or to see. There is nothing more offensive to a sensitive per son, or a lady of a refined, nervous tem pcrment, than to step on or drag the bot tom of her skirt through some brute's cough extract. The anatomy who revels in such filthy practices should be inocu lated with the riraa of a skunk. The T. A..M. held their first past lentin .dance in Fitzgerald hall last evening, ft is unnecessary to say that this was a very pleasant affair for all the T. A. M. dances have the reputation of being the most recherche parties in town, while at the same time they arc entirely free from all secial stiffuess. Every one is at home and enjoys himself to the fullest extent. Those present were Misses Laura Reinhachcl, Joe Morrissey, Cera Waynian, Anna Murphy, Ilattie Latham, Mia and Eda Gering, Maud and Mamie McCoy, Knte and Georgia Oliver, Lou Burgees, 3Iary Ilawksworth, Dora Ilerold, Lytlin Mitchell, Maggie Campbell, Ilattie Fullmer and Annie Livingston; Mcsdames Wilkinson and Ilogan; Messrs.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES. the attendance Sickness has decreased somewhat. te xesteruay three gentlemen came down from Omaha and at 1:30 in the afternoon accompanied by Mr. Jones the contractor of this city, drove out to Mr. Wettencamp's farm with the object of inducing that gentleman to erect a brick building along side the Anheuser-Busch block now going up on Main street. He said he would consult his lawyer and let them know next Monday. If he agrees to their proposition it would cause the pulling down of the tailor shop now run by Morris O'Rourke. As these gen tlemen are. recognized authorities on architectual matters in every city in the country there was no need of Architect Vosa coming here yesterday. Us may come down next week. Miss Livingston wielded the birch, good effect, in room No. 5 this week. Last Monday there of eur teachers were unable to attend to their duties in the school room. Substitutes were at a pre mium. . . The following notice placed on the bulletin board at the High School Thurs day morning explains itself: "Teachers are requested to announce in their respect ive rooms that Arbor day will bo observ ed by the schools in a manner to be here after decided upen. W. W. Drcmmosd, Sup't." . The children are very much enthused oyer the prospect of tree planting Arbor day. If they do plant a tree or sow some grass, that tree or that grass will be pro tected from harm by an ever watchful guard of interested children. In order to beautify our school grounds aad give them a metropolitan air we must got the children to tak an interest in preserving them, and Arbor day will not onlv do this but it is the seed from which may be propagated that love, fer the beautiful which will cause each of the varied forms in nature to rise above, the commonplace and become a thing of life, breathing forth an inspiration ef the infinite love and fostering care of a divine creator. Rook Bluffs. Our annual school meeting passed off very quietly and was a pleasant affair in comparison to the li tie war that we bad last year, uut that is very easily ac counted for as the contentions and dis- PER80NAL PARAGRAPHS. M. D. Polk went to Weeping Water today. J. W. Ball, of Wahoo, Neb,, is in the city today. Miss Mate Saffurd was a passenger to Omaha this niorning. Miss Ida Rilton of Council Bluffs la. is a guest of Miss Ollie Mathews. Miss Carrie llolloway left this morning for Farnham, Neb., to teach school. -Mrs. Capt. II. E. Palmer, accompanied by her son and daughter, visited Omuha today. . Thu viit is partly in honor of George Palmer's seventeenth birthday, which occurred today. Mrs. Wm. Ingrahain, who has been paying a pleasant visit to her husband and friends in this city for some time past, returned this morning to her home at Wheaton, 111. Mr. Iiigrahain, Miss Safford and Miss Ilattie Sheffer accom panied her as far as Omaha. An Enjoyable) Evening. Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Jones gave a party last evening to a number of their friends. We cannot express the good time that was had any better than to use the words of one that was presont. He said that happiness was "unanimous with friendship united." The following are these that were there : Mr. and Mrs. Gm. S. Smith, of Omaha, Mr. and Mrs. F. E. White, Prof, and Mrs. W. W. IF. HERKITu'uAKlKI S iABI$FAVOft)T WAIST o o DURABLE AND ECONOMICAL o o o o MaeVHBB.eMAaWBHMelBeH CI o COMFORTABLE AJfD This waist is designed to meet the requirements of ladies who cannot, comfortably, wear a stifl and rigid coraet, whilo it can bewern with as much comfort as an ordinary dress waist. It will give tht same elegance of contour as the heaviest boned corset in the market, while the Btays are so arranged that they will give support to the back and spine and in nowise interfere with the freedom and comfort of the wearer. The weight of the clothing is transferred from the turbing enemy of the district had moved Drummond, Mr. and Mrs. M. B. Murphy, hips to the shoulders by means of the shoulder-straps, whieh are d' away. A tax of seven mills was voted Mr. and Mrs. Frank Morgan, Dr. and justaDie to suit any lorm or lengtn 01 waist. In addition to Mr. Riddle's prospect for renting the Perkias bouse there is another gentlemen who has been negotiat ing for the past three weeks with Mr. Fitzgerald, of Lincoln, for the erection of a hotel, no has told us the exact spot and spoke ef the style of the building. but requests usto "keep dark" until every thing is in readiness to commence opera tions. As they have been so much delay we have our doubts of the completion of this idea. All the members of the Brotherhood were romping about like school children yesterday afternoon on the green sward down Chicago avenue. They were as skittish as young colts while they played base ball and football. Gray-haireel vet erans of the throttle jumped about as lively as the youngsters just starting fir ing. The enliving scene was witnessed by a largo number of ladies and gentlemen in carnages, as well as Dy Hundreds ob foot. The sale of reserved seat tickets for the opera of "Zo-Zo, the Magic Queen, will uegin Aionaay morning. 1'rice si a ticket, admission 73c, gallery 50c, chil dren 2ic. The public will please remem ber that this opera is unlike anything ever here before and the gergeous ci turnes and fine scenery is alone worth the price of admission, and all the perform ance thrown in. jiiss Anna uoieman entertained a number of friends last night in honor of Her guest, Miss Kato Lucas, of St. Louis. Miss Lucas returns home next Monday Uunng ber stay in this city she bas en- leared herself to many friends, who will regret her departure, but continually ish for her future happiness and pros perity. The evangelists, Cloggett and Bil horn, will bold a revival meeting tomor row at 4 p. m. in the Presbyterian church, on Main street. "Why Actors Bate Mtlns. "I hate matinees," said an actress to me at the close of a performance, as she walked into the lobby. "And why particularly P "I hate them for a lot of reasons. You'd find it very bard to put your band on the man or woman in the profession today who doesn' hate matinees. Everybody hates them, and I'm ashamed to say if it wasn't for a ptick of women we shouldn't have to give matinees at alL" "But why do you hate matinees?" "Firstly, because I regard one perform ance a good day's work, and as much as any conscientious actor ought to do. "Secondly, because the daylight straggles into the theater and gets up a fight with the gas almost every time and I'd like to see tb$ woman who looks weU under daylight and gaslight mixed. "Thirdly and chiefly, I hate matinees be cause at them the audience is almost always a cold, chilly thing, chary of its applause and scattered all over the house like a flock of dumb geese. The reason for the meager ness of applause alwaps to be noted at mat inees is that the audience is usually nine- tenths women. Nature has built women for extravagant manifestations of delight in America; and the makers of gowns and apr plied machinery in dress have decided that what utUe disposition tne American woman has for applauding shall be thwarted by In' numerable and complicated devices. You can't expect a woman to crack her gloves or bring about an attack of heart disease to eratify an actress, can you? That's whas he'd do at the very least, the average tailor made woman, if phe clapped her bands and cried 'bravo' simultaneously." PitUburg Dispatch. Victoria mm m Collector. Queen Victoria is an autograph collector, and she bas recently added to bcr American department an autograph of Andrew Jack son. Chicago Xews, for a district fund and an affirmative vote was given for a uniformity of text books. Mr. D. W. Curtis was elected a delegate to the school text-book convention. Kigbt here we wish to say that we are glad to see the county superintendent start the ball a rolling to establish a uni formity of text books. For figuratively speaking we have stood for a number of years on one foot with the ether raised ready to help kick some of the abomina ble text-books out of the schools, and we sincerely hope that the time is close at hand that we can let that foot go lue multiplicity ox geograpbaries in some districts and the difference obtain ing in adjoining districts is a straight up and down nuisance to scholars, teachers and parents. And then the use of old books that are thirty years behind the times, like McGuffey's readers and spel lers, ought to be done away with. We hope some good will come of this move to establish a uniformity of textbooks. Iben lt tbe legislature devise some practical method of enforcing the coai pulsory educational law that will net make neighbors epemies and keep them in a quarrel. .Nebraska will then have taken a long stride in the right direction towards improving her educational fa cilities. Will Chandler and mother came in last week from Kearney to visit, aud to buy and ship forest true sprouts, so that the sprout business is again in full blast. lue old Odd f ellows hall that was taken down last fall by Mr. Shera and removed to union and rebuilt again, is nearly completed, and remodeled into a drug store, fer which Mr. Shera informs us he is gatting forty dollars per month for rent. Our school exhibition proved quite a success as an amusing entertainment, a. small admission fee was charged, the proceeds of which are te be used in pur chasing a globe for the use of the school. The last few warm days has been the cause i one grand rusn at iarming and garden making. Mr. Ben Kennard met with quite a serious injury last week by being kicked in the face by a horse so bad that he had to go to the doctor to have the wound sewed up, that was made on his chin.

Several prominent business men ef this city are interesting themselves in tha erection ef a first class hotel, which is certainly badly needed. We understand however that Mr. Riddle, of Waho, is negotiating with Mr. Guthman for the Perkins nouse, which will, if Mr. Riddle gets it, be fitted up as a first class house. If this is not done a new hotel will and must be built at once, while we have an opportunity lo get a first class man in terested in it, that is capable of manag ing a good house. B. it, fVT.
