company has been engaged for a one
night stand at the Funk, Lincoln.
Regular meeting of W. C. T. U.

atrcct.
Mr. John Kucdy, of Ilambcrg, la., is
the guest of his nephew, Mr. Mike Grass
man, of the book j.tore of Mr. W. II.
liukcr.
The snow when it fell must have
struck Omaha in more abundance than
riattsmouth as the inhabitants of the
metropolis have been skighriding
already.
Reserved seat tickets for "Lost in
Loudon," are on sale now at J. I Young's,
both for matinee and night performances.
Matinee prices 25 and 50 cents, night
prices 75, 50 and :J5 cents.
--Our new tea man, who is located on
Fifth street, in the Sherwood block, has
leen painting things red within the last
few days and has made the front of Lis
store present a very bright and striking
appeararce.
. Mr. Wiley Black, one of the stock
. dealers of the city, informs us that the
market for hogs and cattle is slightly on
the decline, lie is now paying from $4.50
to $4.75 for hogs, and for cattle from
two to four cents.
Prof. Schmidt, of Omaha, who has
been engaged to fnrnish the custumes for
the Sons of Veterans masquerade ball,
which takes place on the evening of the
13th, will be in the city tomorrow with a
full line of elegant costumes.
Ellis Goolsby, who met with a ser
ious accident several weeks ago, when a
couple of car wheels passed over one of
Lis legs, is now able to move around on
crutcLes. His physician has been suc
cessful in saving his limb which was
terribly mashed.
We are glad to inform the citizens
that theepedemic which has been raging
in the city of late is slightly on the de
cline. Only one case lias been reported
so far, today, and the physicians are
under the impression that it can easily be
kept under control, now.
Mr. Ed Dutton, who mcl with an
accident in the B. & M. yards a few days
ago, breaking one of his legs, informed
us that he will now sell his ticket for the
S. of V. masquerade ball, which comes
off on the 15th, very cheap. He thinks
he will Lave no use for it then.
Mr. John Thomson, the contractor
who has pulled through w;th his work
on the sewer here after many trials and
tribulations, took Lis departure for Oma-
Jia last night, and as Le says, for ?ood
He thanked the newspapers for letting
him down as light as they did dur
ing Lis recent troubles. , He was appar
ently well satisfied to leave this city, and
lie did not say that Le would a'ain
tender for contracts here.
The reason why so many Christmas
presents, such as would be suitable for
young ladies, have been manufactured
this year, can easily be accounted for
The young men who have been left out
in the cold, shivering until now, and who
have not yet heard any of their voun
lady friends hint on the subject which
interests them most, will recognize this
as their last opportunity and purchase
extensively the articles which would
please them most.
uo ucuui. kiieriii leienuoneu the in
formation to the office of a newly mar
ried man who is now serving as a juror
in tlie District court, that he would
be obliged to keep the jury all nicht.and
wished a young man employed in the
ollice to break the news to his wife. The
young man secured a sheet of mourning
paper and an envelope to correspond,
and imparted the information to her by
i ruing a note on the paper. We have
not yet learned what a shock the news
has caused.
The District School.
The entertainment given at the opera
house last night afforded as much aum. e
mciit to the lovers of burlesque as any
comedy we have ever seen on the stage.
The old district school was presented by
the performers with ns much natural
ability as in the days gone by- over fifty
years ago, and all experienced spectators
informed us that the representation could
not have been surpassed. Many were
surprised to notice with what ease some
of the performers acquitted themselves
especially the twins and did their work
as artists. As all the leading characters
were first-class, it would be folly to at
tempt to particularize, but to say that
each scholar acquitted himself or herself
remarkably well would not be over
reaching the bounds of good judgment
Mr. II. J. Streight impersonated the dis
trict school teacher to perfection, and
exhibited good judgment in the use of
the Bail and the dunce cap. The same
company will appear at the opera house
tonight, but an entirely different pro
gramme will be presented. As the
declamations will be more numerous, the
entertainment will still be more intense.
The big fat boy of the Journal office
will appear in the same costume as worn
last M'ght, and it is said that he w ill be
bold enough to spring a son.? Preserve
your boquets until then, because he will
surely be worthy of them all. The an
nouncement of this Engagement Extra
ordinary should fill thu opera house.
The costumes of fifty years ago were
worn.-

Notes. -
The twins were small butoft! my.
J. G. Itichey as Bud Means, attained
great fume.
The receipts at the opera house last
night aggregated about $75.
There were no flies on Barney last
night as Larkin Lanhorn. He apparently
had it in for Wooley.
The Twins will appear again tonight.
The ni.tice of their re-appearance should
certainly draw a house.
The Twins' recitation, or what they
called a song, was much appreciated.
They are artists in their line.
J. T. Doud was no Slow Coach-er. As
a director he was disgusted with his
school and turned on the audience to
help hi iii out.
Program of District School.
Tli..' following program will be pre
sented at the opera house tonight by the
pupil.; of the District School. It will no
donht be a very interesting one.
