CITY CORDIALS.
Bern To Mr. and Mre. Joel Smith,
this morning, a daughter.
Mr. D. Campbell is tenderly nurs
ing a thuin which fell a victim to a fly
which he attempted to catch yesterday.
S. & C. Haver aremakin? threat induce-
C3 O
ments to persons wanting children or
boys' clolhintr. See prices ouoted in
their show windows this week.
Mr. llullcnbach, express agent on the
K. C, was detained at liome in Elmwood
last night on account of the death of his
child. The funeral wil take place there
today.
Deputy Sheriff tE. M. Abogast, of
Stanton, Va., arrived "here yesterday to
secure Mr. R. L. Wabricht on a charge
of seduction. They returned to Rich
mond., Va., today.
Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Edwards desire
us to say that the kindness of their
friends and neighbors during the sick
ness, death and burial of their little boy
Harry, is highly appreciated and cannot
be forgotten.
The i - I. C. E. gave a sociable at
the residence of Mr. R. Donnelly last
evening. Quite a large crowd was pre-
sent ana a yery enjoyauie eyenmg was
spent. The large lawn answered the pur
pose of promenading and different amuse
ments.
Scyeral of the boys of this city o
about the age of 16 years arc about to
organize a juyenile T. A. M. society
Tiie first of a series of dances will Ie
given about the first of September. The
managing committee consists of Charley
Murphy, It. W. Clement and Will Stadel
mann. The society will conduct their
dances in a strictly private order and in
vitations will be sent out for ear h as
cmbly.
Where boys are allowed to jump on
and off of cars while in motion as they
are at the B. fc M. depot, we feel it a du
ty to make mention of the wrong and if
possible be the means of having it pre
vented in some way. No accidents hare
occurred in that way recenty, but if boys
are allowed that privilege much lnger,
there surely will be sooner or later an ac
cident which will cause some one
thoughts of regret on account of nesrli
gence.
A young man who attended the
grand rally at Glenwood Wednesday
evening expressed considerable dissatis
faction to some young lady friends with
whom he was holding a conversation be
cause of the difficulty experienced in
veiling a annK. une ot tne young
ladies replied, "Well, why didn't you
drink water." The young man did not
answer as rapidly nor with as much
fluentness as is usual for him. "That
w-wh-wh-what I m-m-mean, water."
A lady by the name of Mrs. Greenly
who recently moved here from Sydney,
T- 1 l. i - -
uiiu miiu now lives in a nouse on
Washington Ave., informed the author!
tes yesterday that some one had attempt
cu iw cuwroiorm ner. tne House was
watched last night but no one put in nn
appearance. She has two children and
she supposed some one was trying to
steal. She complained of being fright
ened the same way several times and it is
supposed she only immagines so much.
Already a large crowd have handed
tneir names into the base ball club, ex
pressing their intention of accorapaniii
the team to Council Bluffs on Sunday
next. The required number to secure a
special rate has been secured and the fare
for the round trip will only amount to
51.10. The train will leave the B. & M.
depot at 8:30 and go by way of Pacific
Junction. It is expected that about
100 will go from here. Lake Manawa is
gaining a wide reputation as a favorite
resort and in their efforts to have a good
time we hope they may be successful
i.ast eyenmg about the time the
crowd left the depot after the trains had
pulled out, a little troulbe took place be-
tnecu i. v-uweur, a linking enneer
and J. N. Shott, a scab switchman. The
latter carried a lantern in his hand and

which he had coupled when Callicut
greeted him with various flowc ry names
which Shott would not accept. As
w" "; miimt lunciuaea ins
speech, Shott swung his lantern with
considerable velocity against his cranium
inflicting an ugly wound. This morn
ing Shott was arrested and fined $5 and
costs, amounting to . over $10 in all.
Shott paid his fine and reciprocated by
procuring a warrant for Callicut charg
ing him with using insulting language
and calling several disagreeable names,
lie was also fined to the same extent

Mr. Critchfield Dear Sir: Seeing a

such a demonstration in that campaign

his late law student, W. M. Manning, to
day, announcing the fact that he had re
cieved the nomination for county attorney
out at Alma, Neb., by the republican

office and no more industrious law stu
dent can be found. Mr. Manning's many

The Belgian Kins and Queen.
His reign will be marked by three imper
ishable traits: he has virtually abolished
capital punishment in Brfgium by consist
ently refusing o sign a death warrant; he
has founded, out of bis own private purse, a
prize of 1,000 for the best '-'works of intelli
gence," and he has extended the dominipn of
bis country and the arm of civilization to the
dark continent. He has also instituted a
purely military order, the "Belgian Lion,"
which can only be conferred on those who
have served blamelessly In the Belgian army
for twenty-five years.
The queen has brought up her young
(taugulOTB in a pure atmosphere of home life.
She used to be rarely seen abroad, save with
one or two of the little princesses beside her
in the pony carriage she was so fond of
driving. An excellent borsewomar., gji?
trained her own horses; a splendid mu
sician, she had a telephone constructed in
her apartments at Brussels, so that she could
follow from her sofa the opera given at the
theater do la JHonnale. She was the de
voted nurse of the late King Leopold. Her
sincere piety conquered the rationalistic ten
dencies of the aged sovereign, and she alone
was suffered to pray at his bedside. She has
been invariably kind to her brother and
sister-in-law, hiding the pangs it cost her to
see their son, Prince Baudoin, growing up to
Oil the place which should have been her dead
son a. (she baa been absolutely and unself
ishly devoted to the unfortunate Empress
unariotte in her curs misfortune; and if.
owing to her retiring disposition, she has
not played a more conspicuous part at court,
tho is loved and will be remembered for
mar. deeds of charity and generosity.

Of souls too sadly worn to live,
Save in the hope that time may glra
Some richer blessing:, by and by;
And mournful is that hopeful sigh
Some day.

Has learned too well th"X siren song:
Let lire and thrive the right and wrong
The good upheld, the wrong set right.
The just shall see; twill end the fight

The present year bids fair to be a dis

number of storms we haye already had
the most destructive one so far this year
having occurred at art. Vernon, 111.,
.where a large number of buildings were
destroyed or damaged. The exemption
from tornadoes last year renders their oc
