I base ball league-
A Strong State League Can Be
Formed in Nebraska.
WILL PLATTSMOUTH ItE IN IT!
Fremont, Grand Island, Lincoln,
Beatrice, Nebraska City, Hast
ings and Kearney are
Otner Probable.
Members.
With the first breath of spring,
the thoughts of the base ball en
thusiasts turn lightly to the green
sward and the festive bleaching
boards. Again in his memory
visions of the fateful day when the
local team pounded the wax out of
the "State Champions" come again
like a beautiful dream, and sad
recollections of the time when the
aforesaid local team was pounded
into the earth by a gang of hoboes
from the realms of the Minneboohoo
or Murray haunt his waking
hours. So he journeys through
life. He yearns at all
time for the wild energy "the game."
Oiie of these enthusiasts writing
from Grand Island to the Omaha
Bee yesterday unfolded to the"fans"
of their state a grand scheme for a
state base ball league. He sug
gests that various cities send to the
base ball editor of the Bee the
names of some cranks on the base
ball question who are fit and suit
able persons to form a strong
league. He names among other
cities Plattsmouth, Lincoln, Grand
Island, Fremont, Beatrice, Nebraska
City, Kearney and Hastings as
suitable places. The HERALD is of
a strong opinion that Plattsmouth
ought to be in it. We had a fine
team last year and with proper
management ought to have made
money. Under Manager "Whitey"
Miller we flew high and our team
was a source of great pride to our
citizens. Under sundry other
persons we flew low and became a
disrupted and bursted corporation.
Only one bright spot is visible af
ter our wild career under "Whitey"
and that is our successful string of
defeats in the Black Hills. We will
never go back. An opaque
curtain will forever eeperate
us from the wild Indians of the
Hills. Our sad hearts will never
forget the cruel way they treated us.
With a good team under a good
management this year the town
ought to be generous enough to
keep it up. As for suitable persons
to represent this city at a conven
tion, we would suggest "Whitey"
Miller, T. S. Clifford, Sam Patterson
or innumerable of our other citi
zens, and by way of suggestion we
may add that Plattsmouth would
be a good place to hold a conven
tion. We have the room and the
capacity to hold 'em and we would
make it pleasant for them if they
would meet here.
OUR SILVER ANNIVERSARY.
Two Dates in May Selected on Which
to Celebrate Nebraska's Quarter
Centennial.
The committee on the silver anni
versary of the state of Nebraska
held another enthusiastic meet Fri
day evening in the office of C. A.
Atkinson, in the Montgomery
block. An exchange of views on the
best date for the proposed celebra
tion developed a substantial unan
imity of opinion on the desirabili
ty of holding it in the early sum
mer, and Wednesday and Thursday
the 2."th and 2Gth of May were finally
settled upon for the exercises, j
The25th will, it is thought.be largely J
devoted to the library programme,
while the 26th will be given over to
parades and other public demon
strations of the progress and
strength of the commonwealth.
A committee consisting of Messrs
Gillilan. Griffith and Butler was ap
pointed to interview the city ;
government and ascei tain what as
sistance could be expected from
that source. The committees ap
pointed at the last meeting to per
lorm various duties were in
structed to proceed with their
duties without dela3. So
much interest in the project had
been expressed, not only in the
city, but in every part of the state,
that it was felt desirable to proceed
rapidly in order that the greatest
demonstration ever seen in Nebras
ka might be arranged. Every com
mitteeman felt that this could be
done and substantial progress was
made toward that end last evening.
The next session will be held on
call of the chairman. Lincoln

Midnight Alarm.
It is seldom that our people are
given the opportunity to witness a
genuine metropolitan theatre com
pany here when it does come their
way they should turn out and give
it a patronage like it deserves
"The Midnight Alarm" is one of the
best theatrical organizations on the
road and a full house should greet
it on its appearance here next Fri
m
aay. l ne company never plays in
small towns but in order to fill in
va :ant dates between Kansas City
and Omaha they have given this
city a date. They come here from
Nebraska City where they show
Thursday. If we are correctly in
formed, the villagers of Nebraska
City have been spreading abroad
the rumor that tins city was a dead
duck in the show line. We want to
inform our misguided friends that
they have a wheel in their head
on this point. Plattsmouth is still
very much in it in the show line
and we are confident that next Fri
day's house will show it.

She Was a Hright Little Girl.
In a St. Louis parlor car the father
sat on one side of the aisle and the
mother and their eignt-year-old daugh
ter sat on the other side. The father
was a good-lookuig young man and
there was nothing about his appear
ance to show that he was connected in
any way with the little girl and her
mother across the aisle. The mother
was reading a novel; the little girl was
reading a spelling-book. The pretty
young woman in the next peat c;ist
sheeps1 eyes at the father, who loo Led
flattered but embarrassed. Then the
young woman cougfied and the father
winked. The whole carload of passen
gers except the mother saw the little
play. The eight-year-old daughter
watched it from behiud her book.
When it had goue far enough she read
aloud:
"The cat sees the rat."
"Hush." said the mother, "read to
yourself, dear," and she returned to
her uovel. The passengers sniggered.
Presently the good-looking young
woman turned to tlie father and said
witn the sweetest of smiles: "Won't
you please lix this window blind? The
aun annoys me."
The father blushed anil stepped over
and his iugenuous 1 i L Lie girl re:id in the
same bold, clear tones:
"See, the cat has caught the rat."
Some of the passengers were still
grinning wheu the train drew into
town.
