Old "Cal" a colored citizen, is quite
worked up over the column article which
appeared in the Journal of Thursday,
and we would advise the local reporter
of that paper to stear clear, for if he
ever drops one of thse hands on a man
lie is liable to lcaye him the same color.
Mr. S. Waugh, of the First National
Bank, received news a. few days ago
which proved to be the most severe to
him He received a dispatch from
Wellsburg, West Virginia, stating that
bis sister, 3Iiss Eliza, was dead. This
news was a second blow to him of late,
as only a few weeks ago his mother died
very suddenly.
The Liedcrkranz of this city are the
possessors of a fine lot on the hill at the
end of 5th street, which, when the drain
at the bottom of the hill is covered up
and the new sewer completed, will pre
seut a very striking and favorite pleasure
resort. They are talking of improving
it in some way and use it as a beer garden
for the society, exclusively, where they
will hold Sunday picnics.
On Thursday a Swede couple were
joined in the holy bonds of matrimony,
and, in modern times, a more exciting
time over such an event is seldom read
of. That night a regular army gathered
around their house armed with all the
old tin pans, kettle9 and other musical
instruments to be found in the neighbor
hood. Their war-whoops could be heard
for about a mile and lasted for about
two hoars, until, it is supposed, they
re scared away. Such a sendoff as
-hv a newly married couple
if nerves and make
Too Fresh.
Considerable has been said of late con
cerning the boldness of some people
called strikers who are incessantly throw
ing slurs at parties who are going about
their business interfering with no one
and no one's business. Some of the fra
ternity of strikers have acted as gentlemen
since the trouble has commenced and they
have said nothing to anyone who did
not insult them. Of these I have nothing
to say, but a half dozen or so, who ap
parently think of nothing but slugging
people, are seen at all hours sitting in
prominence upon corners of the streets
looking for some one whom they think
has dared to form an opinion of his own
and who does not coincide with them in
their belief. I am not condemning the
brotherhood for this, and am only speak
ing of a half a dozen or so who are in the
habit of insulting some one contiuually
Should the brotherhood desire the sym
pathy of the citizens of Plattsmouth,
such members of their organization should
be stronerlv reouested to use what ever
good qualities of decency they are pos
sesscd of, for if their actions are sanc
tioned by it longer, no sympathy can
i iKsil.lv be shown anv of them bv right
t -
thinking people. It was not thought so
much of until lady friends f parties who
just did not happen to believe as they
did were insulted on their accouut Such
conduct will not or can not be tolerated
in a civilized" community, and if those
noisy members of that organization wil
persist in making themselves such i
source of annoyance, steps will certainly
lie taken immediately to put them where
their noise will resound in their own cars.
Such actions have been looked upon with
contempt for some time, but when
it
reaches the stage that a man is obligee
to be slugged or "believe the same as we
do or tee will make you' it is about time
something was done to put a stop to it,
It would be well for the brptberhood to
order such men off of the street or put
muzzles on some of them, for they are
prowling around at all hours, interfering
with peaceable citizens and throwing out
indcpen; slurs, slugging people because
they would tlare f.q phlvk different from
some of them and expressing theniejyes,
Mr advice to such fellows would be to
- -
go to work, I,et the straightforward
brotherhood men take a little advice and
keep these men under their control or ex
pel them from the order.

"She" Played Well.
This great play of which so much has
een said, was put upon the boards at
the Waterman Opera House last nigut.
A much larger audience than we had ex
pected to see was present, which, with its
applause, lent much enthusiasm to the
act ors which they apparently appreciated.
The play fully reached our expecta
tions, although some were a lute disap
pointed because everything did not np-
ear quite as complete as one would im
agine, hying read the book.
It is a very difficult piece to dramatize

darkness, the gas manager having failed

of mind to those who were lately thrown
into a state of perturbation by the an
