The shapes of scycral broad-ahoul-dercd men of this city can be scon in our muddy streets to-day. . The Eddy hand-power elevator, for merly used in the htore of Mr. Frnik Carruth, is bring put in the store of Mr. II. Weckbach today. The Ladies Aid Society of the M. E. Church will meet Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock at the home of Mrs. Spurlock. A good attendance is desired. It is said that TV. I. Jones, a candi date for county commissioner, spent a whole day and lots of money in another rounty while out soliciting votes last week. He went beyond his bounds. The two year old child of Ernst Pudhtz who resides in the vicinity of the ferry landing, died Sunday morning. The funeral takes place today at 2 o'clock. . The two yt-nr old child of Mr. C S. Forbes, was bnricd yesterday afternoon. Considering the extremely disagreeable weather, there was a large attendance. There will bo a meeting of the Cue County Fair Association next Tuesday evening, Oct. 2:J in the Secretary's oltice to which all members are requested to le present, by order of the President. The first snow of the season p peared'herc yesternay so heavily that all roofs were covered during the day. As the weather was the most disagreeable and the streets almost impassable, few people were seen upon the streets at any fime. The young ladiea republican club met at Kockwood hall last Saturday night to make preparations for tl Ash land rally which will be held next Fri day, the tiGth. Mr. D. D. Smith put them through a drill and it is reported that they were quite successful in their first attempt. The following conversation waiseairt between two young men to-d?y noon iu they lessened the weight upon the table by which they sat: "Well, John, wh.rc did you go last night? I didn't see you.' I came home to get my supper; I sup pose that was the reason.' Mr. Fred Murphy informs us that he is the loser of a new overcoat, and that he is unable to find any trace of the man who now has it in his possession. It was taken from the Fitzgerald hall the night of the lean year ball, lie ofTcis $. for its return or the conviction of the thief. E. W. Lewis & Co., of Omaha, con tractors for artificial and natural stone pavements, have contracted to build walks of artificial stone in front of the business houses of the following firms: Carruth & Son, Cass County Bank, JwJin Blake, and II. Boech. The work wit 5 ! commenced as soon as possible, and it is hoped that all business men will secure the services of the above firm, as a walk made of that material will cost little more than an ordinary plank walk. Miss Ida McLaughlin, a young lady about 18 years of age, who lived at her home on a farm adjoining the poor farm, west of the city, died yesterday morning about 8 o'clock. She has been sick for five weeks or more with typhoid fever, and was thought to be recovering, when she was suddenly taken worse, and died shortly afterwards. She was to be mar ried in a short time to a young man namcdjllarry Thomas, wholivesn?ar this city. Miss McLaughlin was highly spoken of by all who had the pleasure of her acquaintance, "Hollow Eve" is about at hand again and the hoodlums of this city are all excitement over its coming. We learn that the coming event is to be their loudest celebration ever held here. The hoary-headed old men armed with shot gun loaded with peas, who are invariably on the watch for the pe3ky"kids,"should retire for that night and allow the boys one night to hold their long talked of celebration. No doubt they will do things up in fine style, but as this is leap year, the girls consider this privilege among their many and wc learn that they will conwj out in full blast A young man stepped aside on a ' crossing yesterday afternoon to allow a ldy to pass. The humble attitude struck by him as he did so afforded unlimited amusement to only a few spectators In a second the young man's feet could be seen on one side of the crossing and his head on the other, and he was apparently helpless at the feet of the l.idy. With some difficulty he regained his former upright position and passed slowly away, bearing an expression which expressed the following strong desire: 'I would like to swear." He remained in bed dur- ing the afternoon while his A friends scraped off a good portion of the street He can be seen on the streets to-day, but he walks with a firmness that conveys the idea, "I roust wear spikes." v Miss Paul's Concert. Appended can be found a programme of the concert to be given at the Water man opera house, by Miss Clara Paul. She will be assisted by Miss Maud Barnes, who will favor the audience with three of her choicest solos, and the best talent of the city, as can be seen by the programme, has been secured. Amateur concerts have been spoken of highly here of late and much more interest has been manifested in the success of them. Some time ago the support was very limited, but now all citizens apparently are deep ly interested in our local talent, and a full house generally greets the singers. It is a mark of advancement when an interest is evidenced in this way, and an .'lonor to a city. There should be a good attendance, to morrow night as the coming concert will be naught but first class, and we feel confident that all who attend will; be highly pleasad. Miss Maud Barnes who appears three times on the programme, is recognized to be a first class singer, having recently returned from Obf-rlin, Ohio, where she has spent some time at voice training. Every member on the programme will certainly give satisfaction, and we trust that there will be a full attendance. The following is the programme : TART I.

We have often witnessed this scene, but have never before known the loud mirth to cease so suddenly.

A woman of wondrous beauty, in t mette such as is only dreamed of by most of our fashionable dames, stood re vealed, bending forward slightly. So stoops the statue that enchatts the world.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox in I'ittsburg Bulletin The Alliambrs's "Court of Lions," The Court of Lions far excaeded my ex pectations. It is marble paved, a parallelo gram in shapa, and has the far famed fountain, with its alabaster basins sup ported by twelve quaintly carved lions, standing in the center. On certain fete days, or upon the occasion of royal visits, the water leaps over the basins and spurts from the mouths of the statues, as it did la the golden days of Moorish pride and power. On all fur pjdes of the court are handsome arcades of open i&tuccd wofk, and elegant Moorish arches supported by 6lendcr white marble pillars, sometimes single, sometimes in clusters. At each end. a portico or pavilion pro jects into the court, the light, fragile architecture of which seems almost to be long to fairyland. The filigreo stucco work s so delicate, the edges bq sharply defined, so hard and white, that it seems to be of the purest snowy marble. When you stand before one of these beautiful fcristyles, and look up to its open lace ike walls, pierced with the fascinating Moorish arches, upheld by many slender pillars, all so full of elegance, grace and beauty, it is hard to realize that it has stood there for five or six hundred years. It Is so light and airy that we almost fear whli6 gazing at it that it may fade away like a beautjfuj vision. Q. P. Gates in Btfstoji -Trscrlpt.

The Commodore's Chief Concern. Commodore Vanderbllt was driving one day In Harlem lano, and as usual took the road, turning out for nobody A very fast team came behind him. and the driver called on him to give room. Van derbllt urged his horses forward and went straight on, believing he could not be passed. The other wagon dashed by, taking him on the wheel and throwing him out on his head. lie was picked np insensible. It was feared at first that his neck might be broken. But he recovered In a few minutes and inquired of the anxious bystanders: "Did any of you boys notice whether that 'pre hasa was trottin or running" His chief concern was to know if the horse that bad gone by him had kept his gait.
