The 4 o'clock gospel meeting at the
Young Men's Christian Association is a
special effort for men, to present the gos
pel to them. All men are invited to bo
nrescnt and aie made heartily welcome
at the meeting.
Burglars seem to be making a rounds
up of Cass county. Last week they get
away with a new suit of clothes, a gold
.watch and $123 at the home of John
Turnbull, near Elmwood, and Saturday
night robbed a jewelry store in Elmwood
and'the same night a raid waa made on
the Gibbon house in Weeping Water.
Yesterday afternoon, after the ladies
who hid participated in .the work for
a a
the anniversary of the Young Men's
Christian Association, had finished clean
ing up at Fitzgerald's hall they went over
to Henry Boeck's and purchased a m
wicker rockinsr chair which they sent to
the Y. M. C. A. rooms. The sift is n
welcome addition to the furnishings
the parlor.
From Seyen till Four.
Notices were posted up in prominir.l
places in the shops today notifying em
ployes that Monday, April 1, the working
hours would be reduced to eight, work
to begin in the morning at 7 o'clock and
shops to close at 4 p. in. The compact
is perfectly fair in the change, reiucii g
the time from one end of the line to the
other with the same amount of pay per
hour as before. The laboring men who
desire, have the advantage of all tin
evening to themselves. How long the
eight hour system will continue, no om
knows, but there seems to be a general
confidence that in the early fall the hours
will be extended.

around, man for city council that can be
elected. The First ward met at the
council chamber. A Salisbury jvaa elect
ed to the chair and Geo. II. Chatburn for
secretary. Tellers were II. D. Jackson
and L. E. Skinner. The informal ballot
placed J. I. UnruU in the lead for coun

J. II. Waterman was olected central com
mitteeman from the First ward.
TfIS SECOND WARD CHAMPION. '
One of the tubst harmonious and suc
cessful priamaries eyer held in the Second
ward was at the school house last night.
A good representation of republicans was
there, and the harmonious movement
and gener&l appearance of the voters wore
a deep contrast ta the Jones and demo
cratic crowd that met there the uight be
fore in political promiscuity. J. W
Jobnson was made chairman and W, II.
Pool secretary. P. D. Bates and L. D.
Bennett were tellers. The name of Robt.
Donnelly was brought out for the coun
cilman candidacy and without the sug
gestion of another name he was unani
mously declared the choice of the becond
ward by acclamation. Mr. Donuelly is
the owner of the wagon and buggy fac
tory and blacksmith shop on 6th street
and is one of the much respected and
stanch republicans of that ward, and a
better man could not have been selected.
Many leading democrats pf f.hat ward
express satisfaction with Mr. Donnelly's
nomination and will support him in fa
vor cf ones, their own man. Delegates
to the school conweutic to meet atllock
wood hall tonight at 8 o'clock are Robt.
Donnelley, P. D. Bates, W. II. Pool?
Win. Weber, D. K. Ijarr, John Henshaw,
W. S. Wise and J. W. Johnson. P. D.

L. G. Larson were tellers. On motion

were kept open one hour. When that
time expired votes had been cast as fol
lows: S. W- Dutton S7, W. II. Pickens
1, L. G. Larson 24, A. Clifton 34. On
motion S. W. Dutton was unanimously
declared the Third ward candidate. On

S, II. Atwood and II. C. Ritchie was ap
pointed to presepf, the names of 18 dele

H. Boeck, F. T. Johnson, Walter Thom
as, Wash. Smith, Stephen Buzzeil. Robt.
Stuard. F. Myers and W. M. Latham.
The Fifth ward caucus was a fizzle as
far as nominations were concerned, but
otherwise it was a success. Democrats,
mugwumps, prohibitionists and British
ers came in at the caucus and tried to
run the concern. After making nomina
tions and trying to acfreely with all the
intruders, the caucus adjourned, declar
ing all their actions illegal, and will
meet again Monday night to make their
nominations.
Fainted, Fell and Mashed a Finger.
Shortly after 7 o'clock this morning an
accident of comparative little moment
happened in the yards. P. S. Peterson a
brakeman on No. 13. freicht, was helping
make up the train to go to Omaha. . lie
went to climb down the end ladder of a
car ta make a coupling, when, according
t his statement, everything turned black
and he fell. In the effort to catch him
self lie thrust his left hand between the
draw bars and the third finger was smash
ed on the end. The stretcher was brought
out and Peterson was carried to Dr.
Livingston's office where his finger was
dressed in a few minutes, and having re
covered his strength, remarked that he
was good for his breakfast yet, and fol
lowed the stretcher which had carried
him up. down Main tret.

THg JOKER.
Politics, ward primaries and indepen
dent candidates hare so flooded the mind
of Tub Jokkr this week that he has had
very little opportunity to make obsei ra
tions, but Thursday evenins he was
strikingly impressed with the fact that
democratic urmjaries hare no effect n
Y. M. C, A. anniversaries.
If the old gray naired school ma ams,
who had the drilling of the Jones-democratic
factions of the Second ward poli
tician in their childhood days, could
bare been preaeqt at the democratic pan
eus held in the Second ward school house
Thursday night and heard and seen what
transpired in that building directly con
trary to all patient words and teachings
of twenty years ago, they surely would
hare wept at the bld mockery they now
perpetrated be fare the school children of
today.
The other morning as The Jokir was
wending bis way down the street be met
a young maiden cu her way to school
and, noticing the deep thought expressed
on her countenance remarked. "You
seem to be in a meditave mood this
morning." '"Yes," said she "I was
wondering if the disproportionableness
of the alembrehimic would cause a pro
pulsionary exodus of incongruous ele
ments, and precipitate that reign of in
fralapsarianism which is so contiguous
to that of the inficabPitunitibasquerian,
and that you know, was too awfully
awful for passive acquiescence and toler
ation." He answered not, but fled in
wild dismay, fully resolved never to dis
turb the serene meditations of another
dreamy girl while on her way to school.
Some very popular social events have
been recently held in Plattsmouth. and
some more are on the way. Tub Joker
is waiting anxiously for the arrival of
the Washington Anniversary, when he
hopes to get to turn the ice cream freezer
for his part of the entertainment, if he
can beat the boys.
