Messrs. Thos. Riddle and Jas. Antill

By an oversight, a notice of the Y
P. C. E. S. concert of Monday night, was
omitted. The entertainment was held in
the M. E. church and proved to bs a suc

up for the purpose of paying the expen
ses of delegates to the state conyention.
They realized about twenty dollars.
An error occurred in yesterday's is
sue in giving the name of the firm which

This is one of the oldest firms in Ameri
ca, haying been in existence since 1837.
They have the lienor of manufacturing
the pianos used in the Boston conserva
tory. A meeting was held by several of
the republican young ladies at the coun
ty iudge's office last night and a club or
ganized. Twenty-four have already
joined the club, and it is expected as
many more will hand in their names at
the next meeting which will be held
Friday evening at the same place. Miss
Axie Critchfield was elected president,
and Miss Carrie Ilolloway secretary.
The Francis Cleveland club met at
the democratic club hall, Dovey block,
last night. About seventy-five young
ladies have joined the organization, and
new names are being received yet. The
club decided to furnish supper for the
young ladies of Glenwood, the musicians
and the yonng men's democratic club of
this city, tomorrow evening, the night of
the democratic rally here, in Fitzgerald's
hall. This is a good scheme to increase
the membership of the young men's club.
Among the attractions on the fair
grounds tomorrow afternoon will be the
base ball game between Plattsmouth and
Wahoo. The center of the driving course
has been fitted up as a ball ground, and
it is about as smooth a diamond as there
is in the city. Shaffer, of Omaha, an ex
league pitcher, will twirl the ball aud do
great service for the visitors. If he is
well supported, the Plattsmouth dub-will
find some trouble in winning thegame.

A NOISY GAME.
The Oeatrlce Club Threw up the
Camo on the Decision of
Their Own Umpire.
The second game with Beatrice was
played yesterday afternoon for a purse of
$200, as before. The game was adver
tised to commence at 3:30, but owing to
a disagreement in selecting an umpire,
the spectators were obliged to listen to a
disagreeable parley for about thirty min
utes. An engineer from Hastings, named
Price, was chosen by the visitors which
was agreed to by the home team.
Tiie game opened with the yisitors at
the bat, who took the field after scoring
one tally to their credit. The home team
followed and scored five in their first in
ing. Until the fourth iuning, Weaver.the
Beatrice pitcher, was batted freely, when
he apparently disabled himself and left
the box.
The Beatrice club came to thecity witl
the intention of walking away with the
money, but when they realized the work
they were obliged to do to secure it,
they i2camc a set of chronic kickers
Our boys out-played tho visitors at every
point. At the end of the fifth inniug,
the score stood eight to five in favor of
Plattsmouth. When Beatrice went to
bat in the sixth inning, one run was
made, after which, when a min batted
the ball into the field, one of the fielders
met the base runner about ten feet from
the base. He (the runner) moved out
side of the line and the Beatrice men
claimed he was not touched by the ball,
A dispute.of about twenty minutes result
ed in the disappearance of the Beatrice
club from the grounds. The umpire dc
cided the game in favor of Plattsmouth
by a score of nine to nothing.
After the Beatrice players left the
ground, they returned in about ten min
utes, but the game was broken and was
ended where they dropped it. From all
appearances the visitors came here feel
ing confident of this game, and they
were evidently bound to have it if kick
ing would get it for them. The large
crowd of spectators were thoroughly dis
gusted with the performance, and it was
thought serious trouble would result be
fore the dispute could be settled. There
will be no chance to witness another game
here between Beatrice and Plattsmouth,
as the home team are not desirous of
again associating with as overbearing
nine, on the diamond.
This is the second game Beatrice lost
here, and we think the players here are
capable of doing as well at any time.
The umpire acted as squarely as possi
ble under the circumstances. Following
is the score:
1 2 3 4 5
Plattsmouth, 5 0 2 1 08
Beatrice, 1 0 2 2 05
Batteries for Plattsmouth, Tom and
Jim Patterson; for Beatrice, Weaver,
Dallas and Fulton.
Base Ball Notes
Huff got huffy and left the field.
Huff spoiled what might haye been a
home run by catching a fly.
The Beatrice club objected to the de
cisions of their own umpire, and quit the
game.
We are under the impression that some
of the Beatrice people have more money
than brains.
The Beatrice ball tossers are sorry be
cause the Plattsmouth club holds another
$100 of their money and the champion
ship.
Huffs throw from the left field to the
home plate caught Lookabaugh as he re
turned home like the prodigal son with
a long smile.
What a Plattsmouth batter heard from
the Beatrice catcher and the umpire:
"What's that?" "one ball" was the an
swer. "Why didn't you give that to us?"
Umpire "I can't give you everything."

terly's essay on "Endi-miou" wo find exactly
the same sort of criticism. After asserting
that Keats cannot write a sentence or spin
a line. The Quarterly goes on to find fault
with the new words with which, "in iraita
tion of Mr. Leigh Hunt, he adorns our lan
guage. Ave are told that 'turtles passion
their voices;' that 'an arbor was nested,' and
a lady's locks 'gordian'd up,' and to supply
the place of the nouns thus verbalized, Mr.
Keats, with great fecundity, spawns new
ones; such as 'men slugs and human serpen
try;' the 'honey-feel of bliss;' 'wives prepare
needments,' and so forth. Then be has
formed new verbs by the process of cutting
off their natural tails, the adverbs, and affix
ing them to their foreheads; thus 'the wine
out sparkled,' the 'multitude up followed.'
But if La sinks some adverbs in the verbs, he
compensates the language with adverbs and
adjectives which he separates from the
parent stock. Thus, a lady whispers 'pant-
ingly and close,' makes 'hushing signs,' and
steers her skiff into a 'ripply cove.' " Lip

( Plattsmoutii Neb., Sept, ll, 1898.
For the information of all concerned:
I take this method of answering the
numerous inquiries put to city officials
daily, in regard to our sewer system and
the steps necessary to be taken by citizens
to connect their premises therewith.
In tho first place, the mayor and city
council employed Itosewater & Christie
to establish a sewer system for tho city.
They did so, and submitted their plans,
maps and profiles of such system for
approval. And upon examination, ui
mayor and council approved and adopted
the same.
This system includes both storm-water
and sanitary sewerage, or what is called
the combined system. The sewer now
under contract and being built, is th
storm water sewer from the river to the
west side of Seventh street, and does not
include any part of the sanitary system
But there is a provision in the contract
authorizing the contractors to extent
private drains from the junction into tu
property line; subject, however, to th
rules and ordnances of the city, which
provides: That no exeavation of trenche
for sewer or drain pipe shal
be done by any licensed person or cor
noration without a special permit.
Th application for special permits.
with a plan of such proposed connection
with all appurtenances, shall be filed in
the office of the city engineer, signed by
the drain layers and the owner or lessee
of the premises to be improved, and i
the sewer system provides for such a con
nection, special permit will be given and
a duplicate of such permit shall be filed
with the board of public works before
any work under such permit shall be be
gun. Nothing but water drains will be
permitted to enter the sewer until com
pleted.
The sanitary sewer system of the
city is laid off in districts, and
when constructed will be paid
for by districts or by the property
benefited. Compantively few of ou
citizens can have sewer privileges unti
these district sewers are laid. When
they will be laid, depends largely upon
the citizens themselves. Any who wish
can examine the map of the sewerage
system of the city by calling at the office
of the board of public works, and learn
from it just where and how bis connec
tions are to be made.

Chairman Board Public Works.
