ald scribe, and though such things are
of a daily occurrence, and are schemed
in many different ways it may not be out
of the way to relate this one. Two
young lellows of average appearance
entered a drug store and the leader en
quired of the clerk, "Do you keep
artists' supplies, I would like to get a
fine camel's hair brush." The clerk took
from the show case a great variety of
brushes and laid them before the would-
be artist for inspection. The brusbis
were taken up and examined, and priced
one after another and then ail laid aside,
apparently with dis-utisfiftion, whicii
led the clerk to remark, "You didn't
want a brush at all, then." The presence
of another customer semeed to embarras
the young man but he replied, "Yes I do.
I'll take this one," and picked up a 33-
cent brush and at the same time pulled a
whiskey bottle from his pocket and

ping from one car to the other in the
darkness, though the exact circumstance
may never be known, nnd befell into the
gap and was mangled by the rear of his

Plattsmouth having l.wu ii
boy, long before he went into the employ
of the B. & M., and his awful death will
be sudden and sad news to many. Since
leayinghere his home has been at Lincoln
Driving Pigs.
A new puzzle, or came, which has
been amusing everybody in the east from
a bank president down to a street urchin
has introduced itself into Plattsmouth.
This toy has taken more space in news
paper columns than anything invented
since the fifteen puzzle, and metropolitan
papers have 'Id voted pages to it, with
cuts of the game and people puzzling
with it. Three of them have ben
placed in the game room of the Y. M. C.
A. and afford an interesting pastime to
all who think it "looks easy enough."
The tantalizing little puzzle has various
names, but is generally known as the
"Pigs in the Pen" puzzle. The inventor
had in mind the difficulty which a farmer
encounters in ariviug pigs into a pen.
He may get all but one in, when the last
one is sure to dodge between his legs and
get away, or in getting the last one in
another escapes before h.e can secure the
pen. The puzzle is a board about eight
inches in diameter, with a rim projecting
high enough to hold a number of balls;
inside of this circle are other circles or
rims with openings. As the circles de
crease in size the openings are placed on
the opposite sides of the circumferences
so that though it looks easy, one has
great difficulty in getting four or fivt
halls all inside tue inner circle irom the
outer one. Plattsmouth is not vet well
stocked with these puzzles, but it doubt
less will soon be, and then even city
elc tions would not excite a man enougli
to let it alone.

The amount the bods men have to pay

The three cases vs. Albert II. Town
send and others by citizens of Platts
mouth present a curious and and inter
esting state ot facts. They were tried
earnestly to the court and be decision
next Monday is looked forward to with
much interest. It appears that Shepherd
Duke purchased the real estate known
aa Duke's addition to Plattsmouth, in
taking a deed to fifty-two acres of
the same from one A. IL Townsend and
eighteen acre f the same from one
Mary A. Dobelan, also that A. II. Town-
send purchased hia interest in s tid real
estate from his brother, John S. Town
send, a lawyer at Albia, Iowa, but the
record fails to show a conveyance from
John S. Townsend of the undivided
eighteen acres conveyed by Slary A.
Donelan to Shepherd Duke and the suit
is to quiet the plaintiffs title to this un
divided eighteen acres which John S.
Townsend now claims. It is over twenty
years since John S. Townsend claimed or
asserted any claim to this property and
since Mr. Duke platted and laid out the
addition; also each of the several plain-
down the brush and tweuty-nye cents
and walked out with the remark, "My
friend here says he has a brush just that

"It is the beginning of the end" is at

truthfully predicted by him of the situa
tion of tho Hundred Days. But the first
time. Talleyrand beard it waa when he
was complimented on it by M. De Vi
trollcs, and then he saw no reason for
disavowing the paternity. Private indi
viduals not infrequently obtain life and
credit for their happy ideas by -ocribing
them to some renowned spirit of the
time, nnd this seems especially to have
happened to Talleyrand, who, did not,
and often could not, disown the author
ship. This happened in the case of the
saying: "Speech was given to man to
disguLse bis thought, which M. Uarel
really invented, but according to his
custom started in tho world under Tal
leyrand's name in the "Nain Jaune," and
which then never afterward he could
succeed in reclaiming. Dut Voltaire was
the first to express tho idea. The Gen

run by a water wheel. Long, red pota

the machinery running with the preci

older his genius developed until ho could
