11 y n new urra gemrnt in the mail
service, the Om iha papers are now car
ried to Ashland and come in on the
Schuyler. This is to put tlie Omaha
ilailii h on the same footing here as the
State Journal, which of 1-ite has reached
this city nearly au hour ahead of the
O in ah as.
T. E. Williams, the coal oil king of
Plattsmouth, has an incubator in a cave
at his home in the Second ward, where
he has already hatched out ninety young
chickens. The young orphans are kept
in a warm place above ground, when
they get plenty of sunshine and are
ioing well.
M. J. O'Riley and Bernard McGlynn.
who are putting in the heavy etono wall
for the Missouri Pacific well at Union,
are in the city today. They say wi rk is
progressing satisfactory and that whi n
they have finished their present j D they
will put in a well at Lu Piatte. It is un
derstood the company will U3e city water
here, hence no well is needed.
Walter White has forfeited his reputa
tion as being a careful man. It seems he
brought the county safe, weighing ten
tons, up to the Bauk,and as it was grow
ing dusk he left it stand unguarded on
the street all night. This was very care
less, for had the Nehawka people found
it in that condition the safe without a
doubt would be resting today wtth our
cannon, at the shrine of Ike Pollard or
Lawson Sheldon.
The laws of physics were reversed on
the part of the county safe. Careful
measurements last night showed it would
go through the window with 4 inches to
spare. The cold weather, however, in
stead of contracting seems to have ex
panded the safe until it lacked more than
four inches of going in and had to be
pulled back up the incline and turned on
its side. It is safely lioused now in the
Cass County Bank basement and no one
was hurt in its removal.
Valuable Citizens.
Philip Meisinger at the ripe age of 81
years, accompanied by his sons, John,
George and Peter, with their families,
arrived this moruiug from Pekin,
Illinois, and will hereafter be
citizen J of Cass county. Mr. Adam
Moore and family accompanied them,
making in all over forty people in the
crowd, added to Cass county citizenship
today. It required seven freight cars to
haul their stock and , furniture. John
Meisinger moves onto, his -farm south
east p Cedar Creek which he purchased
of Geo. Weidman last fall. Peter will
occupy 3 farm west ot this city, owned
by John Becker. Geerge will move onto
the old Donnely place, while Mr. Moore
will occupy the Leonard Born farm near
the poor bouse. These people are rela
ted to the Cass county Meisingers, the
Horns, Geo. Weidman and others here;
they are well to do people of means and
are indeed a most valuable acquisition.
The Hkjlaxd welcomes them to their
new home and hopes they may neyer have
occasion to regret the change.
The bridge work m the Missouri Pa
cific has all been completed except the
stone and iron bridge across the Papio

Sliver Weddinir Anniversary,
On Satuiday, the 21-t day of February
Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Holmes eelelir-ited
the twenty-tilth anniversary of 1 1 it-i r
wielding at tin ir pleasant home in Rock
Creek Valley, one milit west of Rock
Bluffs. About liity of their old time
lliemls, and a few of their loiing irieuds
met at their In us:' to preserve the mem
ory of t!ie eveiit, to have' a good lime,
an I talk aluiut ill' i leiit.s that happened
long, long Hgo, and to remind them that
they wei 1: n -t forgotten by their old
friends and niiglihors. It is seldom that
O ie lias the pleas. re of meeting so 111 -ny
old time Nebraskaus, many that were
present on t m- it. usion, ii .vin come
lure in the "tilths" wheu the Indiaus
and their cattle (the buffaloes-) had pi s
sesMnn of nearly ull of Nebraska Ter
ritory, T.iese old timers cau tell of many
pleasant incidents and als ) of n.ir. y
hardships ttiey had to en iure in I he
klen time. One thing worthy of spe
cial mention is the fait that money va
so scarce in the years of '58 and '5'J that
Cottonwood lumber was considered legal
lender for debt, on ! lie basis that U0
feet of lumber was worth one dollar in
gold.
It was about this time in the history of
Nebraska that gol t du?t was discovered
iu paying qua', titles at Pike's Peak. O.'i!
what a rush there was then to get wealth.
Eviryoue was more or less excited, and
horses, mules, oxen and cows were used
to haul the outfits, as the ladings were
called, across the plains. Soon after
gold dust became so plenteous that it
supplanted cotton wood liuubt r as cur
rency. It was the cu.-tom to carry gold
dut in bucksVin pouches, nnd a small
pair of scales to weigh the precious metal
with.
We can imagine that the ox whacker
got the business down very fine when he
could weigh out ten cents in dust to ex-
hange with the merchant fur ten cents
worth of "Jecuis River Honey Dew Ter
bacher." This once famous tobacco is
said to have had one peculiar quality,
when taken into the mouth it would
swell and spread over the chin.
Th'ie were piesent most of the old
se! tiers and neighbors who saw them cm--bark
on thtir voyage twenty five years
ago. The day was spent in social visit
uig and reviewing days ttat are now of
the past.
Too much praise can not be given the
ladies for their skill in serving a sump
tous dinner, whieh was indeed a feast
for the inner man aud well fitted for a
king.
' When the guests departed in tho even
ing they left n3 tokens of their love and
s'eeni to Mr. and Mrs. Holmes, a watir
-et, several pieces of hc-autiiul silverwaie
aud a box of cigars, aud all joining in
wishing tht m many happy returns of the

years, at the Sister's Hospital in Kansas
City. The deceased was the wife of

pital in Kansas City, she having been a
