Death of Maud D earing.
The entire community was saddened
today at hearing of the death of the
bright and promising little daughter
of Mr. and Mrs, W. H. Dearing which
occurred near Sioux City at 9 o'clock
this morning, where they bad gone to
consult a specialist. . Her disease, dia
betes, refused to submit to the best
medical skill, and the sweet-faced,
lovable child has gone to the better
world. The interment will, no doubt,
be made in this city, but the time can
not be given today.
Tonight' BUL
The Madison Square Comedy com
pany will this evening present to our
theatregoers the sensational melo
drama, "Mr. ltolatron of Arizona."
The company have already demoLs
trated the fact that they are the
cleverest people engaged in the
repertoire business anywhere about
this section of the country, and will,
no doubt, hold up their fine reputation
in this piece. On account of the im
mense crowd of last evening, Mr.
White will provide over a hundred
extra seats tonight, and every effort
will be made to seat all. It would be
belter, however, for those who intend
coming to purchase their seats in ad
vance at Lehnboffs, where a fine re
served seat may be had for 10 cents.
A rain Crowded.
White's hall was last night packed
to the doors with an enthusiastic
audience.The piece put on by the Mad
ison Square Comedy company was the
beautiful comedy drama, "Kathleen
Mavourneen," and we may say we
have never seen a better performance
given by a repertoire company.
Miss DeVoss, as "Kathleen," capti
vated the audience and was thorough
ly charming in the character. Miss
Moore was equally clever In the part
of "Terence O'Moore." He was par
ticularly strong at the close of the
third act and received round after
round of applause for his fine
work. Mr. Nelson as, "Black Rody,"
gave us a very fine piece of character
acting and the balance of the cast sus
tained their already good reputation.
This evening the company will pre
sent the sensational melodrama. "Mr.
Ralston of Arizona."
Thompson Case Reversed.
The brakeman, Thompson, killed by
the M. P. freight at Union while mak
ing a coupling, was known to several
people here. His widow brought suit
for damages, for Herself and children,
and the case was tried before Sam
Chapman, who, in a high-handed
manner, refused to allow it to go to
the jury and entered an order of dis
missal. An appeal was taken to the
supreme court, which reverses the ac
tion of Judge Chapman and sends the
case back here for trial.
Tarn era at St. Loala.
The Plattsmouth Turners have ar
rived safely in St? Louis, .according

earn what they get. The delegates
from this city to the National Turn

WILL TALK TO NEW YORK.
Telephone Connection ' Between Omaha
And the Eastern Cities.
Telephonic connectiou between Om
aha aud New York City and Boston
will be completed on August 1, says
the Omaha Bee. This announcement
was made by Pres dent C. E Yost of
the Nebraska Telephone company.
The long distance line sli etching half
way across the continent from the
gateway of tha new world to the me
tropolis of the trans-Mississippi coun
try, bas been in operation between Chi
cago and the eastern cities for several
years. It has been gradually extended
westward, the intention being toniuKc
Omaha the western teimiuus for the
pieseut, at least. The line is now com
pleted to a point about twenty miles
this side of Davenport, la., and it is
coming this way as rapidly as experi
enced workmen can set the pules aud
haug the wires.
Pi e&iutnt Yost says that it will tie
ready for business on August 1, aud
that tbe; man who desires to trans
act business in New York can do . to
through the telephone as easily and as
conveniently aa ho can iaik to his
friend in Lincoln or Hastings. Stul,
it is not probable that the lino will oe
used very frequently by men wbo de
sire to call up New York just for the
fun of the thing. The charges will be
somewhat steep, amounting to about
$14 for a five-minute conversation.
But even with the apparently high
rates it is believed that the line will
be used frequently by business men.
The lino from Chicago to New York is
almost overburdened with business,
although the charges are $9 for a five
minute conversation.
One of the extensions will commence
at Palmyra, In Otoe county, and will
take in the towns of Douglas, Sterling,
Smartville and Tecumseh. Another
new line will commence at Elk Creek
and run to Table Rock. From the
latter point two branches will be
built, one running to Pawnee City and
tbe other to the towns of Humbolt,
Dawson, Salem and Falls City. The
towns of Pawnee City and Falls City
will be the most important ones on
this line.
Coughs Kelieved at (luce
And every bit of relief is a part of a
cure that will stay a cure. Use Bal
lard's Horehound Syrup and note how
quickly you are cured and how well
you feel afterward. Specific also for
whooping cough and croup. John
Coffin, Kirwin, Kaos., says: '"When I
began to use Ballard's Horehound
Syrup for consumption the doctor had
said that I would die in a few days.
Am now upand around. Have no mora
pain in chest or lungs." Price 25 and
60 Cts. No benefit, no pay. Sold by F.
G. Fricke & Co.
The Episcopal Eutertalnnient.
splendid entertainment will be
given at White's opera house on tbe
evening of May 10 to secure funds for
roofing the Episcopal church. Frank
Lea Short and Miss Belle Kimball of
Omaha, assisted by the best of our lo
cal talent, will present one of the best
commedies extant. Cast of characters
and extended mention will be made.
You may expect the best entertain
ment of the year and not be dis
appointed. When the spring time comes, "gen
tle Annie," like all otber sensible
persons, will cleanse the liver and re
novate the system with DeWitt's
Little Early Risers, famous little pills
for the stomach ail the year round.
