CITY CORDIALS.
Council meets tonight.
Tin nro fetill in the express oflicc,
"She" shows up conspicuously upon
the Plattsmouth stone pavement.
"She" must be oljcyed and "She"
demands a full house tonight. Every
hotly go.
"She" arrived in the city this morn
ins aM" W1" K,ve a Pav at tne lcra
house tonight.
The workmen employed on the new
fair grounds will soon have them in read
iness for service. ''
The canning factories are now in
full blast and arc employing about fifty
girls each in shelling peas.
The Plattsmouth ball team and
ball nine of the soldiers of Fort Omaha,
have made arrangements to play a game
on the loth of next month.
A dance hall is being erected
on
the old fair grounds. As it has rather
a
substantial appearance, we suppose it will
be a nermanent thinn for the accomoda-
a
tion of the dancers.
The iuvenile base ball club of this
aT
city, the Clippers, have challenged the
three Patterson boys, James, Tom and
Sam, to play a game of ball. They have
accepted and the game will be played
shortly.
It was reported by the Journal that
Mr. Harris, who has charge of the work
on Mr. Ballou'pjnew residence, had badly
mistreated an employe. The statement
was false and Mr. Ballou states that Mr.
Harris was only acting as he had directed
which was onlv fulfilina an agreement
which the employe had made with him
Mr. Ballou.
The C. E. Mavne base ball club, of
Omaha, which was to have put in an np
pearance here yesterday did not show up.
Their knees are surely weak since they
heard of the stronsr tussle the Coun
cil Bluffs teani had while in Plattsmouth.
If thev could not find time enough to
get themselves in readiness for the game
yesterday, the boys here will wait a short
time on them.
It was reported in yesterday s issue
that Messrs. Claug Brekenfeld and Chris
Kechnke had purchased the furniture
business of Mr. Unruh. As the transac
tions between the parties were not satis-
actory, no final settlement was arrived
nt and Mr. Unruh still retains lull pos
session. "When the Anheuser-Busch
building is finished, Messrs. Brekenfeld
and Koehnke will nut in a furniture
stock at that place.
The base ball match which was to
have Ieen played between the lawyers
and real estate men and druggists and
doctors must have been declared off for
we have heard no talk of late. Let some
real estate man furnish a lot and the doc
tors will try and set the broken lones,
but no doubt they would be kept busy
and their service would be required at
that '"jore than it would in the field
catcufng flies.
Arrangements are beincr made at
present to persuade the fat and lean men
of the stockholders of the base ball as
sociation of this city to get out in the
nan held ana make an effort at a game
of balL If the boys are not successful in
securing the required number in the as
sociation, they threaten to make selec
tions from the host of citizens. What's
the matter with giving C. Whopper, of
the Journal, a fat eit. If he would not
prove efficient as a player, he might do
great service as a back-stop.
Mr. Cobbler, of this city, who is a
prominent member of the express fra
ternity, has a horse in his possession
which made an exhibition of itself us a
kicker the other day. No one kuows or
can guess why, but when he backed his
wagon to the sidewalk in front of the
Riddle house, it commenced to kick
when everything was quiet It kicked
and kicked because it kicked. It had
made such an exhibition for about five
minutes until the front of his wagon was
badly marked and several straps in the
harness were broken. It was unhitched
while kickinsr, and last reports had it
that it was still fanning away.
bince there is so mucn wind escap
ing from the democratic wind bag
which are running loose around the city
and blowing that the republicans will
stand no show at the coming election,
some poor, foolish men believe them and
will not go into business until after that
time and a republican president is elected.
That is the reason, we suppose, there are
so many vacant business blocks in the
city at present. Take our advice, open
tip a stere in some of those empty busi
ness stands, for we have as sure a tiling
as sure can be. The democrats are talk
ins to hear themselves talk. They feel
quite confident that the only chance
thev will have to talk will be right
now. Men do not wish to start in busi
ness again under the democratic admiais-
tration, and why should democrats circu
late such false reports and keep good
-usiness men from making an extensive
CHAOTA AMP FELLOWS.
A Correct View of Chasta and Miss
Cora Fellows, the Whlto Maiden
and Indian Drave-
The Two as Seen by a Plattsmouth
' Sport In a Chicago Museum.
1 here Is no goon so gray but soon or lato
hhallnnd some lionet gauder or her mate.
The foregoing lines occurred to the
writer about two weeks ago, on his first
beholdiug Miss Cora Fellows and her In
dian husband, at the Kohl fc Middlcton
museum in Chicago. On going down
Clark street the eye is attracted by a huge
sign with the following on a large can
vass: A painting of a beautiful Caucas
ian girl with a bridal veil and a large
Indian leading her by the hand. (lie is
vulgarly called a coffee-cooler around the
camps. The Iudian wigwams are seen in
the distance, and the minister, with Red
Cloud and his thousand braves, are stand
ing around witnessing the nuptial cere
mony of Chasta and his white squaw.
One of my friends, Mr. Thos. Cass, who
has been all his life among the Indians,
and whose residence is now at Madison,
Wisconsin, declared it was a fake,
for, said he, "I have been up in that
country about a year ago, and as I am
sane enough to think I can talk the Sioux
dialect as good as any Indian, I propose
to go in and see what there is in this
money-making scheme." We got the
necessary pasteboard and were ushered
into a large hall with numerous platforms
around the room, where there were over
twenty dime museum freaks. On a large
platform to the left were Miss Fellows
and her Indian husband. Mr. Cass step
ped up to the platform and commenced
conversing with Chasta in the Sioux
tongue. After a conversation of ten
minutes or more the Indian handed him
his marriage certificate, which is in a
large frame, which certifies that the said
Cora Fellows'and Chasta were married by
an Episcopal clergyman on a certain date
in Dakota, at the Indian Iiesci vation.
The writer expected to eee a beautiful
young woman in Miss Cora Fellows after
the glowing description he had read
about her in the papers. But alas I it
was nothing of the kind. My pencil
refuses to do so ungallant a crime as to
belittle the lady's beauty, but that stern
factor called justice demands that I shall
speak the truth. Mrs. J Cora Fellows
Chasta is a lady about thirty-eight years
old, sunken cheeks, eyes fair, store teeth,
and I should judge by the way she walks,
hip-jointed. No wonder rhen I first
started to write this article the lines at
the heading occurred to me :
Tliere Is no goose fo pray but 8'on or late
Shall find some honest gander for her mate.
But enough ot this. My pencil is too
gallant to proceed any farther on the per
sonal description of the ladr.
The Indian is about twenty-five years
old, and as in all cases over the universe
where the male is the younger, the woman
has to "do the peeing." And it was not
an exceptionable case with the Indian and
his white bride, as he told Tom Cass in
the Sioux dialect. He is a fine looking
Indian for the race, and as most of his
race was afflicted one time or another
with small px, he i badjy marked in
the face. lie is cool and indifferent to
the winning smiles of his bride; she does
the spooney act, and in fact the writer
thinks she is badly meshed. While our
party was in the hall she twice got down
from the platform and went across the
hall and bought candy and oranges for
him, feeding him as tenderly as a mother
wuld her first born. This caused a
smile from Mr. Cass, and he asked the
Indian in the Sioux tongue if he was not
not badly stuck en bis bride. The In
dian's remark was : "Ugh? Wh jtc squaw
good but has not forgot her woman's i
rights yet," or words to that effect. The
Indian told Mr. Cass before he left the
hall that Mrs. Cora was a good financier,
and if they had any luck in the dime
museum business they would have
comfortable farm and home within a
year.
Mr. Henry Tartsch, a clerk in tne
store of S. & C. Mayer, who is well ac
quamtcd with all "the boys," and occa
sionally furnishes a funny topic or some
times makes fun for a crowd which is
often seen in the vicinity of the clothing
store, has a new scheme on hand now
which we are inclined to believe there is
some reality in. It is probably a mean
act for the reporter to give him away.
but his employer, Mr. Mayer, has always
lent a helping hand to this office, and al
though we like Mr.Tarteeb, we feel duty-
bound to inform his employer of the ad
vantage he has been trying to take of
him in his absence. A large trunk is lo
cated in the front of the store as an ad
vertisement, but which might be used to
good advantage in a case of emergency,
Our attention wa3 drawn to it this morn-
. . r - -
mg ana we noticed a piece of the corner
a -a a a. ?
had been broken just large enough to ad
mit of only small articles such as collars.
socks, suspenaers, neckties, jewelry and
a luncn, a gooci supply of which we saw,
It is reported that this gentleman had
made up his mind to leave the city with-
out giving nonce ana was making pre
parations in this way. Since the boys
A - A? 1
have found out mar ne is ient on tak
ing his departure tonight, if Mr. Mayer
will allow him to take the trunk and the
goods, the boys will make up a Taitsch-
light "pro:esh" and march to the depot
with nun.
Leap Year.
And the sparkle of the diamond,
oh, no rich and rare,
Seems to pleate the eye ot many
For It end their care.
We are prompted of late, to answer to
the fate, of those who have fallen in love,
and feel some like going above. ,
The new diamond ringa which we arc
compelled to gaze upon only of late
which surrouud the fingers that tell the
tale, assure us that the young ladies of
Plattsmouth have not been standing
idly by and only looking on. We give
them great praise for their valor, and pro
mise to give them a column and print
their wedding cards for the first one who
will step out of the box. There are only
a half a dozen or so we have the pleas
ure of knowing of, and wo await with
great anxiety to know who the first will be
to set the wheel rolling. Girls and old
maids, just give this question a thought
and there will only be one in four who
will stand back when they think this year
is only one in four. Take courage like
some of vour sisters and wade in. When
some see that this is their only chance,
and if they let it goby unheeded it might
break their hearts, why not take advan
tage of a rare opportunity ?
Leap year parties were all the rage for
about three weeks at first, but we never
hear them spoken of now. For what
reason we are quite unable to say. Since
the young ladies were so successful in se
curing the largest crowds, and the parties
will ever be remembered as the most en
joyable. Why not remind the bachelors
that this is still leap year and that there
is still a hidden opportunity awaiting
them.
We feel quite confident that the ice will
soon be broken and then the water will
flow and things will sail, and the numer-
ousness of the ships will attract attention.
Do not fall back in the shade and allow
the flies to roost on vou while the river
is clear and a good wind for all to sail in
on.
Commencement Tabor College.
juke 24 27.
Sabbath morning June 24th dawned
bright, beautiful and cool, a perfect June
day.
The storm of Tuesday and the threat-
ning weather of Wednesday diminished
the crowd from neighboring towns, yet
all the exercises were well attended and
nothing occurred to mar the pleasure
from the beginning to the end.
The Baccalavreate sermon was preached
bv Pres. Brooks from the text "Behold I
have set before you an open door and no
man can shut it." Twelve of the enter
ing class had public exercises. A nunber
of other gradutes of high schools expect
to begin a course of study at Tabor in
the autumn. An address full of valuable
practical suggestions was given by Rev.
C. II. Crawford of Glenwood, and one of
unusual merit by Prof. L. F. Parker re
cently elected to a professorship in Iowa
college.
l lie graduating exercises were ot ex
cellent qualify, and those of the Conser
vatory or music ana the concert Of more
than ordinary interest. The degree of
D. D. was conferred upon Rev. E. S. Hill
of Atlantic.
The average number of different stu
dents each jca pen years has been
212, last year 433. If the new R. 2. now
in prospect is completed, and present
plans are carried out the college will
speedily enter upon a new era of pros
perity. Spectatqb.

Kindly loudly thinks of me.
