Lyman . Chester Walct i t al was

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,

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. Cap Walk

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.
