The c so was entered in default and decree rendered in favor of plaintiff as prayed for in petition. County Judge. Russell today solem nized the vows that made one, Mr. Rob ert Mitchell and Miss Mary A. Rivett, of Lincoln. May their pathway through life be m bright and sunny as today. At tha State Pharmacuntical associa tion last week, Mr. (). P. Smith of our city was appointed a member of the ex ecutive committee, a deserving recogni tion of Mr. Smith's ability and interest in t he association. The nppointmcnt could not have been better. The county Clerk received a wolf scalp yesterday through the mail. The Clerk says he believes the dead should Wury their dead aud not send it here for him to do. Rut it is a good thing the postmaster is a democrat for if he had not been used to smelling the dead demo cratic party for so long he never rould have hand lxl that wolf scalp without suffocation. The Youug Men's Christian Associa tion held a very interesting meeting yes terday afternoon at the Presbyterian church. Their subject "Manly Christian ity" is one in which all young men should take a deep interest. To be a man should be the aim of all and ther . is nothing that aids so much to be a man as Christianity. Then every one who would be a manly man should feel an in terest in the subject of manly Christianity It is about time for some spring poet ry. Our early birds have all.been drown ed in the recent rains aud we cannot ex pect any more from them and as we are no poets ourselves we would be glad to have some one come to our rescue and write us a nice poem on spring and flow ers. It has been a leng while since we have heard anything about this subject that our mouths our fairly watering for something of the kind. A very serious accident happened Saturday evening about half past eight o'clock. A switchman named Chas. Rey nolds in attempting to get on a flat car missed his hold and his foot went down onto the track and was run ever by the car and was badly mangled. The great toe was amputated and it is feared that a part of the foot will have to be. Mr, Reynolds came from Nebraska City and had just moved his family from that place on the day he was hurt. --(ne can always tell where to get new goods and low prices by looking through the columns of a newspaper. A man who advertises can always sell cheaper than one who dou't. "Quick sales and small profits," is the motto of every live merchant and the merchant who advertises will always sell the most goods because the people know what he Keeps and how he sells before they start out to do ttieir trading, and will never take the time to run around over town to hunt another place. It pays every busi ness man to advertise aud it pays to ad vertise extensively. The oldest aud most successful business men of the day will always tell you there u nothing lot in printers ink, and the more you use the better. A long time ago, away back in old Kentucky, in an eld log school house, we saw boys go to church, sit back in the back part of the house, laugh and talk and disturb those who came to church to hear the sermon. There also we saw young men stand just outside the door and laugh and talk so loud that they could e heard a mile. We were re minded of these days last night at the M. E church. The actions of some of the would-be young men was very un gentlemanly. and we hope that they will sot repeat their actions of last Sunday evening again. If you don't come to church to bear the sermon you would do better to stay away and not disturb those that do go for that purpose. , W. O. Keefer believes in letting peo ple know where be stays, so has had a neat new sign put over his harness shop door. The Young Men's Republican Club meets at Judge Russell's oflice this even ing at 8 e'clock. A full attendance is desired as there is important business to transact. Again has our city been disgraced by u drunken row at the hell-hole kept by one Johnny Blake. Such occurrauccs in which men arc being butchered up are getting to be two frequent at this place, and if the authorities of the city are go ing to allow this man to run a butcherJ shop they should have him take out a special license for that purpose, nnd not allew him t run under tho name of a saloon. There are 6uch things as places becommiug a nuisance, and this is one of them, and should be closed on that ac count. The case of (trace vs. Blake was finished up this morning in the district court. This was an action brought to dissolve a partnership and also to recover money owed by defcudent. The decree of the court gave judgment in favor of plaintiff for the sum of $749.01 aud costal. Also a a lein on partnership pro perty uutil amount was paid. Excep tions were taken to the judgment and an appeal was asked for which was granted and 40 days given in which defendant to reduce his exceptions to writings and hayc them approved. The Ladies of the M. E. church will give a sociable on Tuesday evening at the K. of P. hall, south side of Main sfreet, over J. V. Weckbach's store. The following program will be given: Song, M. E. choir; declamation, Miss Kit Rus sell: duet, Mrs. Martin and Mr. Mutz; song, Glee Club; reading, Miss Witten; song, Willie A. Derrick; song, quartette; declamation, Anna Sullivan; duet, Mrs. Lovrin and Mrs. Martin; reading, Miss May Russell; song, Glee Club. Debate, resolved that man has done more for hu manity than woman. After which ice cream and cake will bo served. Admis sion, 10 cents. The April term of the district court of Cass county, will probably close today or tomorrow, a very large amount of work has been disposed of aud many im portant cases tried and decicd. The time seems to have come when litigants ho have causes in court law have a speedy determination of their differences. District court convenes on Monday next in Lancaster ceunty where Judge Chapman goes to set with Judge Field, and work until June when he goes to Otoe county to hold the June term of that court, so that the only breathing spell the Judge gets comes in the warm months of July and August. " Nigger shooters" are getting to bo quite a handy weapon these days; and tliev are also becoming a nuisance. It is becoming dangerous to even walk along the streets any more. One cannot tell what moment he will be knocked cvar by one of these instruments and not know where it comes from either. It seems to us that people who do not know what they are doing should not ha permitted to handle such things. It is bad enough far a man to bo slugged when he knows who does it but to give it to him when he has no chance to resent is unendura ble, and several cases of this kind have been reported to us within the past few days.

To The People of Cass and Adioin joining Counties- I desire to say a few words to the peo ple at large in regard the breeding of horses. Having myself, for the last 35 years been engaged in that business, be lieving that I am competent to give a fair, unbiased opinion of the best breed sis. I drove the stallion, Little Breeches, who took the 1st premium at the first fair eyer held in Des Moines, la. I also owned and bred the stallion.

Cass connty, a large number of horses even before the B. & M. It. It. bad a rail here and among them were a Printer Stallion, a Copper Bottom Stallion, four Norman Stallions, four Clydesdale Stal lions and others aud have bred all these horses at different times. I have been on the horse market for 30 years and am by this time, certainly competent to ; know -what horse or breed of horses w ill bring the most money in this or any other market and -which are the most valuable to stock raisers my opinion is that the ciyaesaaic ana Norman are worth more money to the breeders and it is based upon this fact, that a three year old Norman or Clydes dale draft horse is wortli and can be sold in market for $140 to $200 and the smal ler horses at the sa.ne age will not pos sibly bring over $75. I have said this much for tho benefit of breeders and in explanation, and further desire to say that we have now at our stables in Plattsiuouth two Clydes dale and one Norman horsea good claan big braeder3, and with more to follow, both for sale and breeding purposes.
