urday the alliance convention was
called together by Mr. Rouse of
Greenwood, and as soon as order
was established Gov. Todd w;ts
called upon for a speech, which the
"Gov." responded to in his charac
teristic way. His remarks were
well received and elicited several
rounds of applause.
The committee ou credentials
then made their report, which was
a very peculiar one indeed. Le
Masters was chairman and found
that there were 1 liT delegates ac
credited to the several wards and
precincts in the county. No report
was made as to who the delegates
were, so that anyone could repre
(ent any place he desired.

Notice.
At St. John's Catholic church to
morrow there will be mass at 8 and
10:30 o'clock.
Last .evening two of our young
ladies, presumably to have some
innocent sport, departed from the
indulgences usually allotted to
their sex and attempted to outdo
their brothers for once at least.
One of them donned a man's attire,
and assuming the attitude of a
male escort, affectionately and witli
apparent ease and grace, conducted
lady No. 2 down the street, when
some of the boys, having an eye to
business and wishing to ascertain
facts in the case, proceeded to in
vestigate, and as a result their curi
osity was gratified. While the
young ladies may have had in
view only some innocent sport, yet
such conduct is wholly unbecoming
ami does not keep pace with th
modesty that should characterize
their sex.

Slightly Injured.
Yesterday as Chas. Bell and Kd
Donald were riding on the side of
a box car, which was being pushed
along the side track they were
quite severely bruised, owing to
the narrow space intervening be
tween their car and one they were
passing. They sustained no ser
ious injury and will probably be at
work again in a few days.
A little child of Mr. and Mfs. S. C.
Wheeler is quite sick.
Dr. Livingston has an attack
having the symptoms of typhoid
fever. It is hoped the attack will
not prove serious.

II KKAM scribe stopped in the city
a short time this morning, as she
was returning to her home, having

their heartfelt thanks for deeds of

During the heavy rain last Fri
da', lightning struck the barn of
David Scheesly, one mile this side
of Alvo. and after cavorting around
through his granary, spliting posts
into kindliiigwood. left without
doing any serious ilama'ge. Sev
eral valuable horses were in the
barn at the time and it is a wonder
they were not struck. Kaglct,
Announcements are out for a
series of ball games between
the Plattsmouths and the
Lincoln Giants. First game Tues
dsiy, game called at 4 p.Tft.; second
game Wednesday, at 4 p. m.; third
game Thursday, at 3:30 p. m. This
will be the last opportunity to wit
ness a good game until after the
Plattsmouths return from their
tour of the state.
The base ball nine at Xehawka
made a proposition to a picked
nine of this city., to play a game
upon the grouncflk of the former.
Accordingly our boys departed
overland Saturday morning with a
view of showing the Nehawkas how
to play ball; but untrue to the
agreement, the Nehawkas excused
themselves, much to the dissatis
faction of the Plattsmouth bojs.
It always pays to deal honorably
even through indications points to
a roasting.

delivered by the Rev. James P.
Mills A. M. General Field Secretary
