Eli Birdsull of Bethlehem, and his partner, a man much larger than him wtjlf, were iu town yesterday and sought solace in the flowing Iwiwl. They 'were quite "jugjry" when they stif teJafor homo? last night in com pany with Harrison McCord and some other residents of the Iowa bottoms, and when they reached a jKint alove the bridge a quarrel ensued which luded in a light between Hirdsall and Biily, and the latter cut the former's bead up so badly that ho came near bleeding to dentl before he oould be taken up town to a physician. Dr. Cummin. bandaged up the fel low's hoad, which looked like he had fallen iuto a stone crusher and today he i able to bo out on the street. tixMy made good his escape across the ri Iver, consequently no arrests have been made. IT IS 1UIYAX AMI WATSON. The I'opuliat National Convention QurfW the Silver Oeniocmts The gold bug democrats and republi cans arc laughing over the result of the populist convention. First ail rules wore ignored, and before the Bryan men could get their breath the vice-president was nominated first, and his name wasn't Sowall, either. The Bryan ites were panic-stricken and W. J. telcgraphod at once that his name should not be used for the presidential nomination. This all occurred last night and to day Mr. Bryan was nominated ay the convention just the same. It looks like the wily politician from Lincoln had been razzie-dazzled or out classed somewhere in the move, and tho next turn of the kaleidoscope will bo watched with special interwl. A VICIOUS KUNA WAY. A Team on Sixth Street Takes a Lively Chase With Only .Slight JMuiaRe. Alex Burtwell was loading a wood-: " rack on the running-gears of a lumber wagon near Sage Sc Shuinaker's livery j barn without unhitching the team this morning. The horses seem toh'ave been vicious ,JLayvay, and with a sudden leap they tore away like the wind, the light wagon being no serious pediment to their speed. They went north on Sixth street at a killing pace up to iTricke's residence, when they ran into a shade tree, fell down and were cap tured. The nec.kyoke and a bolt or two in the coupling was broken, while the horses, which looked as though they would bo killed, did nut have a scratch. Charley Twiss' horse and buggy were standing at Streight & Saltier'. The quiet animal, at peace with the world, had its head down as if asleep and before it could pick up its ears the wagon of the runaway team struck the buggy and quicker than you could snap a finger the horse was lying in the street with its heels in the air, a buggy wheel torn to splinters and the team which did the damage nearly half a blok away. Several narrow escapes were made before the tree was struck which ended the race. Two wagons wero slightly touched. An inch more andthey would have been wrecked also. Thurston May Follow llryun. The interesting information comes from Chicago that the republican managers are considering the ad visability of following Bryan on the stump in Maine and other parts of New England if the latter carries out his plain to go down there to speak. It is probable that the senator will follow Bryan in New York also. It is said that tho republican managers consider it a wiso plan to dotail Sena tor Thurston to look after Bryan dur ing the entire campaign and give him nothing else to do. It is generallj' conced that Thurston made the best speech at the St. Louis contention and Bryan the best speech at the Chicago convention, but they are very different in their style of oratory. Bryan is compared to light cavalry; Thurston to heavy artiilory. Thur6ton is said to be the only debator that Bryan is afraid of, for the senator learned some of Bryan's weak points in their joint debates and knows where and how to strike him so it hurts. Nebraska Cty Press. Celebrated Their Uolden V edding. The golden wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Folden was cele brated in splendid form at Union July ill. Mr. Folden was one of the lirst ministeisto set foot in this county, and if all the charitable docds and helpful, christian aets performed by him and his worthy wife were recorded it would take an immense hook to hold them. Mr. and Mrs. rolden -were kinuly remembered by hosts of friends who presented them with no end of valuable and useful presents. A more deserving eoun'.e could not be found wi:.hin the realms of old Cass, and the News, with other Plattsmouth friends, takes pleasure in extending congratu lations. ior Kale or Trade.

Attempts Her Own Life. ltebecca is the eighteen-year-old daughter of Jim Baker of Hock Bluffs. work for Mrs. S. P. Ilolloway at the jail, and trave satisfaction. She entertained no gentleman friends and appeared to bo fancy free, thoueh at times sne seemed a little down hearted. About 4 o'clock yesterday Mrs. Ilol loway being away, Miss Baker gave her little daughter Exie a note to be delivered to Miss Carrie Ilolloway at r. nViock but not before. The lit tle girl read the note and found what was about to happen so she went and notified Carrie at once, who came over to tho house. She had been in the room but a few minutes and only turned her back when the girl drank a vial of digitalis, but the sharp eyes of the little girl saw her. and Dr. Schildknecht was called at once. Miss Baker at first refused to take an antidote, but by a skillful ruse she was prevailed upon and was soon on the way to recovery. Had help not have been prompt tho poison would soon have ended the girl's career, but she persistently refused to give any reason for her rash act. A S ATIIINU KLIUKL. itill (ireeue Wakes l the Wrong Man and ltH a Severe Itoaatlnc. ST. Louis, July 24. (To the editor of the Clobe-Democrat) I notice ia this morning's paper a virulent at tack on ino by the Nebraska delega tion signed by W. L. Greeno, chair man, and Warwick Saunders, secre tary. I do not believe it was author ized by the decent olemont on that delegation. W. L Greene is an otlice holder, and hopes to be nominated for congress and get tho democratic en dorsement. Warwick Saunders is one of Governor Ilolcomb's oil in spectors. Half of the delegation are Governor Ilolcomb's appointeos, who hojw to perpetuate their jobs. Governor Ho'comb has made a di rect deal with Mr. Bryan to nominate him at St. Louis, and thereby get Bryan's support for governor this fall. It is a direct and shameless sell-out of the populist party of Nebraska. Sena tor Allen has also entered into e. deal to be re-elected to tho United States senate, as a result of this trade. Over half of these men are office-holders, and as such under our rules are not eligible to scats in our convention. They aio here wearing democratic badges, and their loaders are daily conferring with the chairman of the democratic national committee. They have shamelessly sold out the populist party in our state for gain. They came hero on railroad passes and packed the convention by the most shameless and corrupt old party methods. Gov ernor Ilolcomb's nearest relatives aie on a trip to Alaska as guests of the Union Pacific Kail r oad company. In our state it is well known that Gover nor ilolcomb is under the absolute control of the gold bug editor of the Omaha Bee. do appointed his son to! i high otlice. These people, by sinister influences that will not bear the light. are seekincr to destroy the people's party. They wear elegant gilt edged badges. 'The inhibit magnificent headquarters. They howl and jeer at straight populist delegates. In thoir earnest desire to stay at the pie coun ters they slander and malign honest men. I hold two positions in the people's party, president of tho national re form press and commander of the na tional legion. I have given a pledge on honor that I will stand by our party and protect its honor against the malignant assaults of all traitors who may assail it. I will stand by the pledge, no matter what happens. I have no ill will toward Mr. Brvan. llo is a good man in bad company. He can not get an honest electorial vote without the aid of the infamous and criminal ballot-box stuffers of the south, who should be hung to the highest trco in their domaiu. The idea of a man posing as a reform can didate who has to steal all the elec tors of the southern states. I still stand by the noble men of the south in their gallant struggle for liberty, no matter what tho result will be. I denounce the men who issued this ad dress as men who are here to destroy the only silver and reform party in the nation. They are jingling demo cratic money and moving heaven and earth to strike down the only true sil ver party. They are aided by all the demons of hell, from ail tho slums of this nation. They are the direct scouts and agents of Wall street. I apical from the band of traitors wearing democratic badges to the mid dle-of-the-road delegates, who cannot bo bought or driven or t-lumped oil, and with the help of God, who has ever aided our cause, we will win the battle Paul Van Di.n Voort, President National Keform Pret-s and Commander National Legion.

Senator Berry of Arkansas tlls his friends of a trial for assault in his state. In the course of which a club, a rail, an axe-handle, a knife and a shot gun were exhibited as tho 'instru ments with which the deed was done." But it was also shown that the assault ed man defended himself with a re volver, a scythe, a pitchfork, a chisel, I a hand-saw and a dog. Tlot jury, Mr. j Berry says, came to the conclusion ' that they'd have given one dollar apiece to have seen the fight. Kan sas City Journal.
