If y,u wish to he credited with be
ing possessed of a iiiiiul and sold pure
and free from sordid thoughts and base
emotions listen to the Welsh Singers to
night. The Eunice Goodrich company which
appears at the opera house three nights
this weckjeomes highly recommended and
promises to be superior to any of that
class of entertainments yet seen in I'latts
inouth. XV. I). Aiusworth, advance agent for
Eunice Goodrich, left yesterday morning
for Omaha. Mr. Ainsworth is naturally
poscsse'd of 'every qualification that
stamps a man as a gentleman. The heart
of a lion, the tenderness of a woman, and
the soul of a man.
Kowrll's newspaper directory for
1883 quotes the law and real estate firm
of Windham fc Davits as owning and
editing the Plattsmouth Journal. These
gentleman are staunch republicans and
quit the newspaper business long ago for
something more profitable.
The true criterion of refinement
is a taste for beauty of form or
sound. Instrumental aud vocal sound.
will greet your cars in a manner to
arouse you from plethoric lethargy, en
large the mind and purify the soul, if
you witness the performance f the
"Welsh Singers tonight.
There is too much lawlessnces on
lower Main street. Nearly every night
last week some one was slugged, and last
Saturday night special pohbeman Buzzell
while trying to arrest a striker was slug
ged and his man got away, so no arrests
wrr nindft. Th?r. should ha a. sufficient
force put on to arrest euch fellows, and"
if stood men cannot be had any other
way the mayor should call for volunteer-.
Mr. Fred. Patterson, postmaster at
Rock Bluffs, lately forwarded a petition
to Hon. John McShane at Washington
which was signed by the editors of this
city and Omaha, in addition there were
15G names affixed to the petition. In
less than three weeks the petition through
McShane's influence and exertion was
granted. The petition was for changing
the tri-weckly postal route between
Plattsmouth, Kock Bluffs, Murray and
Eight Mile Grove into a daily route, ex
cpt Sunday. Mr. Patterson is deserving
of great credit for accomplishing this
result unaided.
There has been complaints made by
numerous persons to the city council
about cattle straying in their gardens and
destroying plants and flowers. The fol
lowing law applies to the case: ''AH
damages done by cattle, sheep, horses,
moles and swine on cultivated lands,
shall be paid by the owners of such
stock; and the person whose property is
so damaged thereby may hive a lien
upon such trespassing animals for the
full amount of damages and cost, and
m y enforce the collection of the same by
tha proper civil action."
At Harper's theatre last night an
audience of large proportions and appre
ciative to a marked degree witne;sed thr
production of the new comedy,'Wanted,
a Husband," by the clever sobrette. Mis?
Eunice Goodrich, and company. The
piece is of the Iloyt order, being replete
with amusing and laughter provokinjj
situations. There is no paiticular plot
to the comedy, but enough of connecting
thread is woven through it to maintain
interest to the last. Miss Goodrich was
awarded many ovations for her excep
tionally fine acting, and she was strongly
supported by Jas. It. McCann, Mr.
Morris and the other members of her
company. The troope is far above the
majority of "all star" combinations,
which are traveling through the country
now-diys, playing tq, the old high prices.
Miss Goodrich gives a refined and highly
entertaining performance, at prices with
in the reach of all, and she is certainly
deserving of the praise shs is receiving
in Rock Island. Rock Island Argus.

AnothcV Bridge-Insured Prosperity
"Let Her Roll."
We are going to have another bridge,
a pontoon bridge shaped like this:
This will enable the faimera of Iowa
to bring their gruin and stock over here
for sale and help the boom that is com
ing pretty lively over, what is fast be
coming an energetic, lively little city.
This bridge is a certainty, so don't bo
dubious, and on this side we will have
two new hotels run by experienced hotel
men from large cities, so don't be boubt
ful; sowers will be built and streets paved
shortly, o don't be surprised. There are
so many buildings going up that it is
tedious to cuter into details about such
trilhs.
Col. Stewart's system of street nomen
clature is yery simple and should be
adopted by every city council in the
United States. It consists in calling all
streets north of Main street "Avenues"
and all streets south "Cor30a." Such as
1st, 2.1, 3d Avenue or 1st, 2d, 3d, Corso.
Attend the meeting and get further in
formation. Every citizen should be
present.
Col. Stewart of Philadelphia, the Pon
toon bridgu builder, will address the
board of trade tomorrow (Tuesday)
evening on the subject of bridging the
Missouri river and on systematic" street
nninencalature. Every member of the
board should ba present. It is a matter
of importance to Plattsmouth.

The above is the commencement of a
title which concerns the health of every
body in this city. Mr. Whistler of the
City Bakery, has just enjoyed the services
of a -first-class baker from Omaha, named
I. J. Straycr. This gentlemau's specialty
is in ths making of "New England Home
made bread." Praise of this light, easily
digested,. aerated, form of nutriment is
not necessary. Purchase a five or ten
cent loaf and von will be convinced of
its merits.
Mr. Whistler also supplies a dinner for
twenty-five cents, far superior to that
served in restaurants in many large cities.
Short orders are rapidly at'ended to for
breakfast or supper. Meats from C x. u.
till 11 r. m. Ice cream and lemonade at
all hours.
Orders for wedding cakes prompt'y
filled. Ball?, parties, or picnics can b3
readily supplied with everything in the
eating line. Mr. Whistler rnns a first
class restaurant and only awaits your pat
ronage to substantiate what is here stated.
OBITUARY.
Mr. Wm. Tucker who died in this city
last Friday afternoon was born in Denver
town, Beaver county, Penn., October 31,
1828. lie was raised on a farm near
Cincinnati' Ohio, until he became twenty
years of ajre, when he moved to Holt
count, Mo., where he married Mrs. Tuck
r, lice Sarah E. Ramsey.
The fruits of that union were eight
children, two of whom have since died.
J wo or the remaining six children are
married, a daughter living in this city
and a son in Missouri.
Mr. Tucker lived Ive years in Holt
county, Mo., and then moved to Platts
mouth in 1857 and had lived in the same
house for the past twenty-five years.
He had a sister, Mrs. Leyi Hoag, living
in Savannah, Mo., who with his brother
Jasper Tucker of Wilbur, attended the
funeral.
Mr. Tucker was a carpenter by trado
and a member of the McConihie Pott,
G. A. R. and Episcopal church.
He was only sick about a w eek and
died very suddenly unconscious of his
surroundings. The doctors say the cause
of death was cerebral hemorrhage or
apoplexy.
He enlisted for three years in Co. A.
2nd Nebraska regiment, and served one
year and eleven months until the close
of the war.
Mr. Tucker had three ribs broke on the
left side during the war and ever sincr
he had complained of a pain near the
region of the heart. He was constantly
saying that those injuries would be the
causo of his death.
If the widow can show that the cause
of death was brought about by injuries
received during the war, which it un
doubtedly was, she will receive a pension
for the rest of her days, but she will
have to make an application to the
authorities at Washington.
It was only the other day we made
mention of pensions and that "one by
one the rose leaves fall" in reference to
the rapid manner in which those glorious
veterans are passing away, and how soon
a fulfillment of that beautiful quotation,
which is followed by "drop by drop the
stream runs dry."
The Welsh Prize Singers-
A concert will be given at Waterman's
opera house this evening by the Welsh
Prize Singers.
These singers have visited nearly all
the principal cities of the country, and
have won the commendation of large
cities everywhere.
They will be assisted by Walter T.
Baker, an assistant of the royal academy
of music of London. The programme
will contain a liberal amount of the best
English music, and the entertainment
will be one that will be highly appre
ciated by the music loving people.
Revival Meeting's.
The meetings yesterday were interest
ing and profitable. About four hundred
men were in attendance at the afternoon
meeting," and listened attentively to the
story of Mr. Claggett'a conversid. The
trundle-bed was sung by Mr. Bilhorn in
ins uesc strain ana toucned a cuorci in
many hearts present. About sixty have
made a confession of the Savior and have
expressed a determination to lead a new
life. There will be service again this
evening at 7:30 in the M. E. church.

There are lots of stories being print
ed about domesticated snakes. We once
knew of a snake, a rattlesnake, that so
oved the family of which be wa3 a do
mestic, that one terrible stormy night,
when forked lightning was striking and
destroying trees and buildings, he was so
afraid that the house in which we resided
would be struck, that he jumped on to
the one-story roof, and stood on his
head erect turning himself into a light
ning conductor. The lightning struck
him he rattled no more. The loving
tenderness and thoughtfulness of those
dear creatures passeth all human unde-
standing.
In their sugar-loaf hats and quaint
garb the Welsh Prize Sinsjers proved in
teresting entertainer to Star Course pat
rons laet night. Their programme was
made up of part song glees, vocal solo?,
and harp music, and was rendered with
the yeoman's spirit and skill which we all
know they feel. Boston Evening Trave-
