From all ap pearances the case is their's. Several of them testified. ii'r. Joe Uusch, for a long time man ager of the city water works here, has ac cepted a fcittiatioa in the I. P. Shops at Omaha. He upent Sunday with his friends here and returned to that city last evening. He informed us that his present situation is much more agreeable than the former. We are in receipt of a notice of the opening of a new opera house in Fremont, which will occur on the evening of the 14th. Tha lithograph of the building represents a very handsome house. It will be known as Love's opera housc,and is owned by Mr. J. W. Love, of that city. A first-class entertainment has been secured for the opening. The school case which is on trial to day before Judgo Clifford and a jury of six men, is a very interesting one and the court room has been crowded all day. As we go to press the jury is only being addressed and no time remains for us t give particulars. A full report will ap pear tomorrow. Attorneys Sullivan and Davies for the defense and Gering for the prosecution- Mr. J. F. Johnsoa. of the firm of Johnson Bros., hardware merchants, met with rather a painful accident this morn ing while waiting on a customer. As he pulled & box from the shelves to show- some axes to his customer, the bottom of the box . gave away, allowing some of the axes to fall, one of which struck his risht foot nearlv severinir a part of it. A severe cnt was inflicted across the bal of the foot, nearly severing a cord. The wound, though an ugly one, will heal up shortly. The regular December term of Hie District court opened in Rockwook hall this morning. The following cases were to be introduced to the court today, according to the trial docket: Aaron G IJarhydt vs. Thomas Coverdale et al, Robert Wallace vs. Dora Flershniann, John G. Huber vs. Phillip Huber, Com mercial Bank, Weeping Water, vs. Tewksbury and Cooper; John Petty vs. Geonre F. Harris fc Co.. T. J. Thomas vs. O. M. Carter, S. L. Thomas and E. It Todd; W. H.

Iseverman, of Louisville, isi n the citv today on business. As he walked along the street he was noticed 17 many on account of his extreme height, some estimating it to be about seven feet. To satisfy ths curiosity of several of the men. the cheeky nvm of the crowd, who is never questioned when a reporter is present, was appointed to interview him. As he approached the gentleman, he was obliged to throw his bead back to take him in fully. He willingly informed his approacher, after being cpnestioued, that his exact measure was six feet, six and one-half inches. The men who Joolted upon him only over estimated their own length and judged him to be seven feet because they were obliged to look such a distance to see Jils head. The reporter at first showed igns of timidity for fear that the man might step upon him when he exhibited o much boldness, but he apparently was agreeably and revealed his secret willingly. v PERSONALS- ( Mr. August Meyer, of Omaha, is in the city.

Newt n Been' lyric spectacular pro duction of "Lost in London" has uehievt d success the past three seasons solely through giving a meritorious per formance that all classes of theatre goers can appreciate. The play is a simple story of woman's wcakni.sa and man's devotion, told in good Jviglish with an easily defined plot. It gives, however, a faithful picture of English north-country life. The special features introduced are strong and original, making the enter tainment doubly interesting and attrac tive.

BEING A WOMAN. What She lias to Do and H hiit the Stonier Be Don't Do. There isn't a man in the world but ' liinks. a woman, has an easy time, and ; ti.tre isn t one, if he had to go through j i!.,, fuss and bother of bein one, who wouldn't bo in an insane asylum in irfs uian 3 year, in the hrst place, y'?;i must look well. A man can Lo as ugly as home made sin and still be popular. Whiskers cover up the most of his face, and even though he has a mouth big enough to . take in a whole mince pie at a single bite, nobody suspects it. If he has wrinkles, nobody thinks he is crettinc old. but talk about the lines ot care on his forehead. Lines of caret i! uiupi i 4.11 uiue pases pup oi pen moso lines of care were caused by him scold ing his wife when dinner was two minutes late, or when one of those masculine buttons popped off, and., oli, my, what a hullabaloo ha sets up then. But nobody says anything about lines of care on her forehead 1 Oh, nol And a man's nose might put a blood red beet to shame; but nobody suspects he drinks. Oh, nol A woman must always be just so, must look charming and sweet, no matter how sour she feels ; she must sing, and play on the piano and say something nico to everybody. Her dress must Jiang and fit just so, have 1 i T a e i 1 1 tuo latest pucker, even it is was made in old Noah's time. Sho must wear a No. 3 shoe on a No. 5 foot, and look well dressed on 75 cents a week. She can't go out alone at night, as woman must be protected ; she can't be a Free mason, as she'd teH all about the goat and the greased pig; she can't whistle, climb fences, stone cats, or say what sho feels when sho gets mad. She can't go a-courting, but must manage some way to get married before she is ?3, or everybody will feel terribly hurt over it and sigh and wonder why she Vdon't take," and all the old maids and widows in the neijjcbwhood will smile and nudge each other. Oh, those significant glances are fifty times worse than open slander. It's an awful thing to bo an old maid and everybody knows it. Even the women who are married to drunken husbands, and fight and quarrel tho seyen days out of the week. live in an agony of spirit over her and iZik about the poor old maid. And if she has had a sweetheart once, and he goes with any one else now, people suiilo when tbey see her and quietlv remark: "She got left," when, in all firobability, ho was the one who got eft. But sho must marry well, and marry well means marry rich, and to get married, in some people's minds, is the whole aim of a woman's existence. And when a woman does get married the wholo town put their heads to gether and talk over the matter; if she is good enough for him; no mention is made whether he is (rood enough for her or not Oh 1 no.

She must be a cood cook, and do up her husband's shirts so that wIimi he goes down town, past a Chinese launary, Jonn will cnash his teeth grow green and yellow with hate ant envy, and twirl his pig tail in the air with the same unholy passion. She musi oe ame to lay tier hand on every thing in a second's time that her lord ana master may want, for a man never knows where to find anything. He will put the bootiack awav. ten derly hide it in the darkest corner of the closet, then he'll turn the house upside down, from the top to the bot tom, and suddenly appear to his wife, with a countenance like that of the avenging angel, and demands "What in thunder have you done with the bootjack?" She must shut all the doors, likewise all the bureau drawers, for a man never was known to shut cither. A woman always has to go to bed first in cold weather. He never asks her to do this. Oh, no; wants to "finish this piece in the paper, dear." and waits until she has the sheets to a comfortable temperature.
