The base ball boys will probably play the best Lincoln amateur team on the Fourth, and the C. E. Mayne club, - of Omaha, next Thursday. Bishop Bonacum, of the Catholic Churches, will arrive iu the city this nf ternoon on the flyer. A large procession of the different Cutholic societies wil greet him. Kcserveu seat tickets lor "hlie ' are now ou sale at Phil Young's for only 75 cents. The management Mill make it pleasant for the patrons by passing ice water during the performance in case i should be a warm night. Two young gentlemen of this city who are experts on the tandem, made a trip to Eight Mile Grove last night after 10 o'clock. It is not reported when the return trrp was made or what was the occasion of such a night-hawk expedition. Three street exhibitiou men possessed of a harp, violin and flute, rendered some excellent music for the benefit of the public last night. They, with the crowd they entertained, occupied a good por tion of the street, and played for a couple of hours. Mr. and Mrs. Vim, of the Vim com pany, who remained in the city for the past few days trying to persuade people to attend their entertainments and were unsuccessful, took their departure from our city this morning for another place which will probably appreciate their talents ltetter. . Nebraska City is somewhat disfigured but still in the ring. Henry Iluckins, the editor of the Times, has been horsewhip ped by a woman. He . is congratulated upon the fact that he has received the jeward ho so richly deserved. True merit always draws a prize of some kind. Lincoln Journal. The case which had been brought against the barbers of the Riddle House so in 3 time ago for keeping their bar"er shop open and working on Sunday, and which had been continued on account of the disagreement of the jury, was brought up again yesterday. J udge Sullivan was for the prosecution and Mr. Geo. Smith, of Omaha, for the defense. It did not last as long as the first, and. after it was submitted to the jury they returned in about fiye minutes, rendering a verdict of guilty. They were fined $1 and costs, the costs amounting to about $75. . The strikers, who had an eye to bus iness last night, secured the services of the three men who were serenading the business places, and proposo giving a ball tonight at Fitzgerald's halL A com mittee of the brotherhood men was ap pointed for the purpose of selling tickets, who have been working last night and today with good success. The music is good, a large crowd expected and a good time i cure to be the result. All lovers of the dance arc certain of a good time by participating and a large crowd of their sympathizers should contribute to their assistance. The cantata of Queen Esther is be ing talked of considerable of late in this city by the musical people. The cantata of Esther, the beautiful queen, has been produced in most every city and town of any note in the country and wherever witnessed, when rendered by good sing ers, invariably receives the highest ap plause and praise. Let some one start, who would be an efficient teacher, aud push it forward to a successful .issue. We feel confident that the musicians of this city would be willing to participate in such a move and help it out. The piece is not a difficult one and with a little practice and very little expense could be put on the stage in good style. If no individual will take hold of it let some ambitious society secure a teacher, tut the teacher to work, which would be a good scheme and which would be a source ot deriving a good benefit. Wo fcopc to see a move in this direction, and tie Hebald will bespeak for it success. Mr. W. M. Ryan, who id to be super intendent of the sewer work to be com menced soon, is making forms and tamp- ets and getting every thing in readiness for the work which will be commenced immediately. lie went to Cedar Creek today to make arrangements with a com pany there for some material which ia to be used. The esteemed local ed"itor of the Journal, Mr. John King, while witness ing a practical game of base ball jester- day afternoon, and not wishing to allow the boys to have everything their own way, secured a ball and attempted to give them a cricket exhibition. IIo made some good points, but being out of prac tico missed a ball which was thrown to him and let it pass through his hands and strike him in thj face, changing the color of his eye. All men are most heartily invited to attend the informal song and gospel meeting of the Young Men's Christian Association, tomorrow afternooon at 4 w'clock in the T'resbyterian church. Mr. O. T. Wood will conduct the meeting. Topic: "Something about the heart." The association has organized a double quartet under the direction of Mr. Mutz, It is to be hoped that this association may prove to be a great success hereafter, es pecially in regard to the welfare of the young men in our town. Every man stranger or friend, is heartily welcomed. Two of our Plattsmouth statesmen Messrs. Sherman and Gcring, not Sherman and Hiscock, as has been reported, are engaged in a mission of love, trying to reform the country. They appear in their new role at Louisville on the evening of the 23th. From the bills, we see every body in favor of a reduction of tariff, or Cleveland, are invited to lie present. We bespeak for them a good house, ns in our opinion, a great many . citizens in Louisville are in favor of reducing Cleve land to private ranks, and we don't know of two better apostles for that purpose than the above statesmen. Mr. Daniel Burris has been quite sue cessful in soliciting for Jedd Vance. The contributors haye been very liberal, and he hassucccedcd in securing subscriptions to the amount of about $100; $44 cash which has been paid over to the boy's mother, Mrs. Dickson. Some opposition has been met in some places on account of a report which has been circulated that his parents had considerable money in the bank before he was injured, but this has been denied and was proved t o be false. Mr. Burris wishes to collect $100 in cash before he stops. The boy is rational enough at present to thorough ly appreciate the kindness of his friends aud occasionally is heard to remark that some one else may need the money ns badly as he, and wishes to know the names of all the frieuds who so kindly assisted him in this way. Wherever the the boy was well known, liberal contri butions were invariably received, and his chum, John E. Thomson, gave him $2. A young man of this city p jpularly known by the name of "Cotton" has made himself more than prominent during the strike on account of his striking ability. Before that time everybody knew him to be or supposed him to be possessed of a rather quiet and reserved disposition, but for some reason we know not, since the said strike has been in session, the brother hood have been obliged to watch him day and night. He apparently believes in not only being a possessor of such a name but in having the game as well. He .vas about to tackle a man the other evening who had been on the police force for some time during the trouble, but did not, how ever, and only abused him vocally. lit was brought up before Police Judge Clif ford yesterday afternoon. "Cotton" ap parently was not satisfied in taking a seat with the lawyers and the people of tin court room, but climbed to the front and occupied a chair beside the judge's with the anticipation of assuming the name ot "Judge Cotton" and being lenient with himself. lie sat on the bench eyeing hit opponent and the crowd before him, look ing as though he might be in a deep study on a speech, which he would soon present to a jury and thinking up some points which could only come from a well cultured intellect. We do not know who continued the case, but nothing was done "with it yesterday afternoon aud it was set for trial next Tuesday. We think probably "Cotton1 would make an effi cient judge, judging from his composed nature and coolness, but we object to him taking such a position upon himself with out the vote of the people. We would inf orai him that the best way to aspire to that position would be to hand in his name at next election in the same style other men anxious to secure such posi tions do. We do not condemn him for the act, and believe when his mistake is made known to him, that he will be per fectly willing to wait until then at least. He is popular among the stri king f raters I ty lor his ability as a rapid speaker and several speak in his favor as a good man to argue a case and were surprised that he should secure the services of an attor ney. He is a man of deep penetration, ns he sat down on a drygoods box last night after the fatigue of his office work yester day afternoon, striking the ground immediately. The social which 'was held at the residence of Mr; W. 8. Wise last night by the Y. L. R. R. A. was a success finan cially aud socially. A large number of young people were present, and as the evening was beautiful, the lawn in good condition and well lighted by Chinese lanterns, refreshments in abundaro and everybody in cheerful spirits, a good time was reported by all. We are obliged, since so much com plaint has been heard, to draw the atten tion of the street commissioners to a bad spot on Sixth street which should be im- mediately looked after and repaired. The place is about Thomas' meat market where scales were located a short time ago. They haye been removed only a short time, and the road at that place has never been in a good condition since. It should be repaired at once, unless the blacksmiths buy up the commissioners to let it alone. It is again reported that Richard, of the "Sreight House" is in trouble. This adparently is more serious than the first, but he was caught in the same way ns before asleep. Had it not been for the watchfulness of his ever faithful cur, he probably would have been relieved of some of his earthly possessions. Between the hours of eleven and twelve last night, while Richard was respiring away the time in the arms of Morpheus, yelps from his ever faithful friend awoke him. For tunately for him he awoke at the first sound for he discovered on waking that burglars were 'attempting to make a way through the screen doors of the front of the house. The burglars had broken the screen making a hole large enough for the dog to occupy with his nose. As soon as the dog took that advantage of the situation and pushed nose through the door, one of the men seized it in order to keep him quiet. They soon dis covered their danger when Richard was seen approaching, and fled. No clue has yet been obtained to convict the guilty parties, but it is thought they are resi dents of the city and men well acquaint ed with the surroundings. Mr. Streight is at present a grass widower, nud our advice to him would be to send for his wife to keep him out of trouble. When she learns of his misfortunes of late, she mny probably return. We are glad no serious harm was done him by the bold night prowlers, but such work is certain ly an annoyance to a peaceful man. The boycotting principle is being carried to such an extent as to appear ri diculous, by some of the strikers and their friends. We understand that a demand was made by them that certain persons should retire from the. social given by the ladies of the Christian church the other evening at Rockwood hall, the matter be ing carried so far as to send a note to the objectionable parties over the names of some of the ladies in charge. This spirit showed itself again last night where the same persons, and perhaps others with them, announced in unbecoming language their refusal to patronize the sociable given by the ladies of the reading room association, because some of those persons whom they derisively call scabs were pre sent. It should be distinctly understood that these social entertainments are of a public character, and the citizens in gen eral are invited to attend them, and that any person who is willing to conduct himself in harmony with the laws of good society is welcome to all their priveliges. They are not given for the benefit of any particular persons, but for the good of the cause, or orginization represented. Under these conditions no respectable person is excluded from attending and participating, while on the other hand, no one is bound by stronger obligations than their own wishes, to attend. Now fpr any person, or class of persons to make either a public, or private demand for any class to be excluded is carrying matters too far and asking for what they have no right to claim, and what the good sense of an American organization will ever give. What can be merclis gustiug to candid people than such acts, what more clearly exhibit the spirit by which those are actuated who make such demands, and what prove more a elead weight to the cause in which they are ask ing for public sympathy and public fa vor. Can it be that these individuals re present the spirit of the brotherhood with which they are connected? If so the sooner the whole thing is frowned upon : nd relegated to the shades of oblivion, the better for every body concerned. The Love For Notoriety. Condemned Criminal: "Is the scaffold in good order ?" Sheriff: ' I believe it is." ''And is the rope going to work all right ?" "Certaiuly." There won't be a hitch of any kind then V "Not a hitch."

The case of the watch formerly belonging to Louis Napoleon, prince imperial, who was killed in South Africa, has been sent to Lon don. It is slightly battered.
