The second ward is agai n troubled
with a fiend, in the shape of a wife
boater--and of all liends this par
ticular kind of a fiend ia the most
damnable.
John Meyer, living in Shaferville,
put in the afternoon yesterday try
ing; to find out how much alcohol
lie could get on the outside of, and
if reports are to be relied upon, he
made away with a considerable
amount of the stuil. A Her he went
home last night he found some
thing that didn't suit him and com
menced taking out his spile on his
defenseless wife the one he had
promised to love, cherish and pro
tect by striking her i-i the face and
knocking her prone upon the floor.
After she had lain there some
time and failed to come to, he be
came alarmed and started down
town for medical aid. Dr. Schild-
knecht arrived and found a gash
above the left ear.
Such inhuman monsters should
receive the extreme penally of the
law, and a liiHe more on top of that
Meyer told Officer Filzpatrick that
the reason lie struck his wife was
because she was lecturing him for
drinking, and that he d-d not pro
pose that his wile should run him.

Tavlor is Coming.
On Saturday, May 14, we are again
to have the ever-welcome J. F. Tay
lor's Great American circus,
museum and menagerie, who will
spreau their city ot canvass in
Plattsmouth for One day only,
They need no introduction to our
citizens or friends in the vicinity,
as their former visit gave the best
of satisfaction. This year the show
lias been greavly enlarged and now
they claim the best one-ring circus
in. America. They carry fifty star
performers, including John Hatch
lor, champion leaper of the world.
In the menagerie will be seen the
baby elephant, only tei months
old. The parade will take place at
noontime, a sight worth coming
miles to see. The prices are cheap
and almost anyone can afford to at
tend. So let's all turn out and give
Taylor a rousing crowd.
Engineer Ford's S ory.
Engineer Ford of the ill-fated
passenger train that was wrecked
Sunday morning, had his right
hand badly injured and his head
considerably bruised and cut. He
stated to-da- that as his engine ap
proached the fatI culvert they were
running down grade at a speed of
from thirty to thirty-five miles
an hour. Fireman Shriner was sit
ting on the seat on his side of the
cab, and, as they approached the
culvert, remarked: "That's a big
body of water down there. It looks
dangerous." With that he crossed
to the gangway on the right side of
the engine, and was looking ahead
when the fatal crash came. Ford
says he don't remember how he got
out of the cab himself, but th'nks
he jumped or was thrown from the
cab window, as he was sitting down
looking out of 'he window when
the engine we:it down.

To Meet in Lincoln.
Judge Kamsey received a notice
from the county judge of Rock
county one day last week informing
him that there would be a meeting
of all the county judges of the
state in Lincoln May 18, at 11
o'clock, for the purpose of forming
an association of county judges
and also taking some concerted
action in the way of asking the
legislature to make necessary
changes in the probate law. Judge
Ramsey said that when the probate
law was passed the legislature
failed to provide for reimbursing
the county judge who was com
pelled to keep separate accounts of
all probate matter. It causes the
county iudtres a erood deal of
trouble; besides, they are out sev
eral hard-earned dollars at the end
of the year.
