After church they went homo as usual only to find their house had been t iken possession of by friends. Mrs. K. was a party to the plot and had p-epared fur a sumptuous dinner which was nerved in duo time, and those present say it was a feast lonr to be remembered. Mrs. Frye of Cedar Creek added much to tho pleasure of the fathering, with pome nice musical selections. l Uo.se .present were the following gentlemen with their wives: John KalTenberger, John I-ohnes, Leonaid Horn, Adam Ilild, Albert Tappo, Chris Stoehr and John ilauer. No wedding1 pait- ever enjoyed a nicer dinner or h id a pleasanter time.

Tho county judge's office was crowded with members of tho board of trade and business men last evening. The beet sugar question was discussed and it was agreed that a special meeting of the board should be had as soon as the delegates return from the Fre mont convention, in order to heal th eir roport. The postottico building matter came up, and C. Sherman gave a very intelligent reason for our not getting the coveted building at once. His theory, that we must in crease tho reveuuesof the office until we can first get a free delivery system. is doubtless correct. Mr. Cochran, of South Omaha, made a pleasant little talk on sugar neets and industries generally. On motion of Dr. Humphrey a vote of thanks was unaminously tendered Hon. .1. I J.
