CITY CORDIALS.
The new Y. il. C. A. hall will be oc
cupied tomorrow at 4 p. m. for the first
time for a men's gospel meeting.
A surprise party was given Miss
Lizzie Steimker last night at Iter home
on Seventh street, by a number of her
friends.
A tubing party of five couples, and
enough to eat for twenty, took' a
carry-all this morning and went out to
the Platte botoms to fish and hare a
general good time.
A horse belonging to John Itob
bins, attached ty a wagon and in charge
of several of the younger members of the
family ran away yesterday morning. No
one was hurt but the wagon was dama
aged somewhat.
Astrange fact exists in regard to the
recent heavy rains. It was thought that
the whole state had been well soaked
and it is true most of it was but it is
stated on good authority that twelve
miles south of Plattsmouth rain enough
did not fall to make it muddy.
Every man in Plattsmouth is cordial
Ij invited to attend the first gospel meet
ing to be held by the Young Men'
Chistian Association in their new hall
tomorrow. For two weeks the rooms
have been under process of repair ami
the arrangement of furniture, and a very
pleasant hall, with a seating capacity oi
ovjr two hundred is now ready to be oc
cupied. Rsv. F. S. Blayney, president
of Biillevue college, a man well edu
cated and acquainted with the scripture
will address the men who attend tin
meeting. The new rooms and hall art
in the Waterman block over Bennett A
Tutfs, and though not fully completed
yet, are ready to receive visitors.
For some time the Dago questi- u
and the best way to get rid of the Dago
in the city has been agitated by a cf rtait
class of laborers of the city, and last nigh:
a number of men gathered before the
house in the Second ward occupied l
thtm, and while hotly discussing the ti
nation among themselves, a delegatioi
of two, representing themselves to b
otlicers of the law, went to the house am'
told the Dagos to leave tov.n by tonigh
or there would be trouble. Marshal
Dunn was informed of the signs of trou
ble and reported on the scene. No ar
rests were made; the Dagos are still at
work and nothing serious has yet hap
pened. The house they oocnpy in locat
ed on Vine street, near Seventh, by tin
head of the sewer, and is owned by Mr.
Billings.
Main street was convulsed with
laughter last evening at the expense of a
light built gray headed old gentleman
He was near the corner of Main and
Sixth streets when the K. C. for Omaha
whistled in at the depot, and suddenly
getting a move on himself he made
down the street, evidently hoping lo
catch the train. As he crossed Fifth
street with his head high and his eye on
the cars, lest they should start, he
stumbled into the sunken pavement at
Mumm's corner and fell headlong on the
sidewalk, rolling over a couple of times,
lie quickly gathered himself and his hat
up, however, and started to run, at the
same time attempting to brnsh the dust
from his pants. With his head down in
this manner he bunted kerflump into the
stomach ef a son of an ex-alderman who
was coming up the street The young
man only had a second's warniag and
could'nt get out of the way. He looked
astonished and the old man was chagrin
ed, and with the exclamation "can't you
see anything" reduced his speed to a trt
but after going a half blcck thought of
his pants, and this time stopped to dust
himself. When the old gentleman fell
he attracted the attention of the many
bystanders in the vicinity and the second
incident created a great deal of laughter.
He reached the depot in time for the
next train.
The pay car will be this way Mon
day. -
Two deaths recently occurred in
Omaha by hydraphobia, from bites from
one dog. A Bohemian named Porkene
had a pet dog which he gave away to
John Schubert, but before he gave it
away the animal bit him. Up to last
week Porkene seemed all right, but then
he was taken with hydraphobia and
died. The dog also bit Schubert on
several occasions and he died yes
terday, having been taken sick Wednes
day. The same animal is said to have
bitten eight other persons, and has since
dirappearcd. These are said to be the
first deaths from hydraphobia in Omaha
for four years.

The town board officers for the ensuing
year are as follows: John Clements,
chairman; Geo. Hatch, clerk and Dr.
Hobbs, treasurer. John McGu're was re
appointed city marshal and street com
missioner. The board starts out with
prospects of greatly benefitting and pro
tecting the yillage of Elmwood, for
which there is plenty of room. New
walks will be built, streets will be graded,
important ordinances will be passed and
inforced and a general stirring up will
be made.
Born. To Mr. and Mrs. George Towel,
a son. May 5th, 189. All doing well.
. II. James, stable caught'fire in some
mysUrieus way last Sunday afternoon
and burned up. A set of harness, some
hay and other things usually kept around
a stable. The horses were just taken out
in time. Mr. James has no idea as to
how the fire commenced.
D. S. Day the trustworthy section
foreman on the M. P. at this place, fell
off the front end of the hand car Monday
and received some severe wounds about
one leg and knee. The car run up on
him but did not pass over him.
Gracie Allen, the infant daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Allen, of Elmwood,

Wabash Items.
Fmm the News.
The coming events which Wabash has
booked for this season, to be held at the
Boating Park are the Teachers Institute
and Chautauqua of Cass and adjoining
counties, which beging Monday, July 22,
ends August 10, and the. annual Camp
meeting of Latter Day Saints, of Iowa

his door yard Friday that was the pos
sessor of five rattles and a button. Sev
eral children had been playing all around
it
Mr. Hollenbeck who lives between here
and Elmwood has had a force of men at
work for the past eight weeks, drilling a
well as his place. Saturday ' they had
reached a depth of 230 feet, but as yet
had not feund water in sufficient quan
tity to warrant them to stop drilling.
WATER WILL BE KINO.
A project has been set on foot by
Plattsmouth capitalists, whereby Cedar
Creek is to be transferred to a canal and
brought into that city from a point four
teen miles west The scheme is assuming
a tangible form, and it is claimed on
good authority that the power thus ob
tained would rival, in might the famous
falls of St Anthony at Minneapolis.
Surveyors are looking it over and state
the c -st would not exceed common rail
road construction. If there is any damn
ing to be done Weeping Water should be
given a chance to bid en the contract.
Notice.
I take pleasure in saying to the people
of Plattsmouth that loss I recently sus
tained in the partial destruction by fire
of my dwelling house has been paid in
full by the Hartford Fire Insurance Co.,

BETTER TIME TO CHICACO
JJew Time Tables on the) "Q" With
Passengers on the .Fast
Mall.
It is in keeping with the reputation of
the Burlington route as always bein "in
the lead' that some considerable change
takes place tomorrow in the passer cr
train time and service on that road.
Time table No. C, on the B. & M., which
takes effect tomorrow at 10:80 a. m. will
change Plattsmouth trains to arrive and
leave as follows:
GOIKG WKST.
No. l 9 :C6 a iii
NO. 3 i -.01 P IU
o 5 701 111
No. 7 (Schuyler) 7 :00 p in
no. 9 (K. C. to Omaha) G :0C p ui
GOING EAST.
No. 2 3 :49 p III
No. 4 - 10:24 a lit
No. 6 7 :19 p in
No. 8 (Arr. Schuyler) . .. 10 :00 a tu
No. 10 (K. C.) 9;'.4am
According to the above table the prin
cipal changes are in trains No. 2 and 5.
No. 2 which arrived bur formerly at 4:44
now arrives at 3:49 p. m., and 5 goes
west in the morning at 7:01 instead of
8:01. There is also an effort to -make
better time. The vestibule express, No.
2, which formerly took 44 minutes in
coining from Omaha now makes the run
in 34 minutes, a gain of ten minutes time
in 22 miles. This, of course is not the
case along the whole line, but a few min
utes are saved at other points. No. 2,
arrives in Chicago daily at 7 o'clock the
following morning, in advance of all
competitors and in time to connect with
all morning trains out of Chicago for the
east. The yestibule trains in Nebraka,
Nos. 1 and 2, will have extended to them
the famous dining car service of the
Burlington route.
Another new feature, displaying the
enterprise of the "Q," but which does
not affect Plattsmouth, is tWaddition of
passenger service to the fast mail from
Council Bluffs to Chicago. A Pullman
slepper and reclining chair car will leave
Council Bluffs daily, attached to the fast
mail, at 9:25 p. m., arriving in Chicago
at 12 noon -the following day, making
the fastest time ever made between the
Missoari river and Chicago, on a regular
schedule. --
The changes in the train service make
a change in the postoffice time card as
follows:

Elmwood Echo: Elmwood is ablaze
with animosity, anxiety and curiosity.
Old men are pricking up their ears, min
isters are turning, into pettifoggers,
women are seeking to deyour whom they
may, countrymen are remonstrating and
the the meek and lowly editor of the
Echo is languished behind the ba.rs at
the postoffice; and yet under all these re
strainments, our town continues to pros
per, and we invite the thronging public
to locate in Elmwood and enjoy the full
crone of the "Nebraska Desert."
