t I; Ah AN AGRIGULTURflL, SHOW. ItKI'OKT OP TIIK MKKTINU OF TIIK CASS COUNTY KAIK JIANAOKIiH. The I Iiiuik'IiiI Condition of the Moc-lrty Found to lie Much lt-tt-r Tliun It Hits Itet-u Fur Years. The fd j urnc-d annual iLtetn) of the Chbi ouiity A' icullural nocicty, brief mm. lion of which whs iiven in i 5 1 I I 1 . .ycBicniiiy b i-tue, was neia hi mo oi- lico of I hu county uurvoyor yetstorduy tiitortu.-c n. Iho repot ta of the oliicorhJ show tho society in a much better tin ancial condition than it has been for Beveiul jturH put-t, in fact to fur at tho amount of i i.dubledneHM is concerned, bolter than any lime uinuo tho re- txiovai of the fa.r to tho grounds foutb of town. A year ago tho indebtedness of tho society wus about $2,.r(XJ, this has been reduced to about $1,100, ex clusive of the umount owing on pre miums, which is Dot much over $100. For tho premiums owing, orders have boon drawn with 7 per cent in terest. Tho matter of omitting the fair for ono year, on account of the Trans-Misslsnippi exposition, was thoroughly talked over, and it was iinally unanimously decided to hold a fair as usual, but to make it pre emi nently an agricultural show, and at the samo time reduce expenses in many ways. It was decided that mem- bersnip tickets would be sold this year at $1 instead of as heretofore. There was not only harmonious but unanimity feeling throughout the whole proceedings of tho meeting. The roports of the officers show that there are over thirty-two life mem bers, besides holding annual member ship tickets. It was the express in tention of tho membership for this year to all do individual work, and not not leave the whole of the busi ness to be transacted, as heretofore, by two or three officers. While it would have bjen more desirable to have been able to pay off back premi ums, yet the parlies holding the or ders may rest assured that they will eventually receive their money, in tho meantime the society appreciates the fact, that by thus waiting, they are doing quite a material work in hiving a Bociety. Tendered a Kereptlon. The following from the Crete Dem ocrat will be of interest to the many friends of Mrs. C. P. Stoutenborough: "One of the most pleasant social events of the season was a Kensing ton given by Mrs. F. I. Foss Wednes day in honor of Mrs. C. P. Stouten borough of Plattsmouth, president of the Nebraska Federation of Woman's clubs, stopped off in Crete for a day, on her way to Beatrice, where she is to lecture before tho Woman's club. Between fifty and sixty ladies were present, representatives of all the clubs and a number of outsiders. Those present from out of town were: Mrs C. C. white and Mrs. S. Avery of Lincoln. Mrs. Stoutenborough gave a short, but highly entertaining talk on Marie Mitchell, the leading as tronomer for twenty years, professor of astronomy at Vassar college. Re freshments were served." The Methodist Church Crowded. The Methodist church was filled to overflowing last night to hear the Christian evangelist, H. A. Lemon, wbo has been preaching at the Chris tian church for several nights. In beginning the speaker of the evening spoke of the obligations which the Christian church were under to the Methodist Christians for the use of their church. He said the courtesies would be used and not abused. The sermon which followed was very im pressive and forcibly delivered. The subject tonight is: "Who Wrote the Bible? When?" All are invited. A (iOOU LKT1KK. From the Clerk of the Circuit Court. Fern and in A, Fla., Feb. 28, 1896. Mit. George Suhkek, Druggist.City. Dear George: Please send a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I would not feel easy if I knew there was none of this valuable Remedy in the house. I have given it a fair test and consider i t one of the very best remedies for croup that I have ever found. One dose has always been sufficient, although I use it freely. Any cold my children contract yields vsry readily to this medicine. I can conscientiously recommend it for croup and colds in children. Yours respectfully, Geo. E. Wolff. Sold by all druggist. The Prodigal Sou." Rev. Mr. Tonge's sermon delivered at the Presbyterian church last even ing on the "Prodigal Son," or "An Old Friend with a New Face," was one of tho most interesting of the series. The large audience listened most attentively and the touching parable as enfarged on and pictured forth by the evareelist, drew tears to the eyes of many, who, somewhere, have prodigal sons that they are pray ing for. Tonight's subject, "My Father's God," will doubtless prove as interesting, and everyone is invited to be present. M Ward L. Smith, of Frederick -stown. Mo., was troubled with chronic diarrhoea for over thirty years. lie had become fully satisfied that it was only a question of a short lime until ho would have to give up. He had been treated by some of the best phy sicians in Europe and America bit got no permanent relief. One day he picked up a newspaper and chanced to read an advertisement of Chamber lain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. He got a bottle of it, the fii st dose helped him and its continued ue cured him. For sale by all drug gists. Insure in the German Fred Ebinger, Agent. American. CITY AND COUNTY.

Mike Cavy, a well-known stock ship per of Wabash, says the World Herald, seems to have suffered an un fortunate experience in this city as the result of previous trouble with his wife, from whom he is ni.w separated, and who now resides here. Januiry 18 she filed a complaint in police court charging him with assault with menacing threats last July lfi to answer which Mr. Cavy ap peared in police court last Wednes day, and was released cn his own recognizance to aprear February 15. It now transpires that last July 10. both Mr. Cavy and his wife were in C-ss County, and not within the jurisdiction of Omaha police. Among Mr Cavy's friends are the most prominent citizens of Wabash who vouch for his good character and con duct, and assert that the charge of being drunk, as slated in the World Herald, is not true, since he is not a di inking man. There bas been no action on his past during his frequent business trips to this city to change that ocinion of him here. MiK'li Criticism of Edmisten. Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 9. It is said there is trouble in the popocratic camp because Chairman Edmisten has al lowed the charges of fraudulent mark ing of the ballots to the recount to go without any attempt at refutation. A number ot Mr. Edmieten's friends are urging him to swear out warrants for the ai rest of a number of newspapers on the charge of criminal libel, but Mr. Edmisten, who is the person es pecially mentioned in the accusation, is of the opinion that it is better not to go into an investigation and de clines to make any move. II s inaction is causing much su prise among re publicans and popocrats. February Excursions.

How an Actress and Doctor Were Fooling Each Other. In French theaters the doctor of the theater has a seat given him for every performance. He must be there every evening. Naturally, after he has seen the same piece a score of times he longs to be elsewhere and prefers to give his seat to some of his friends. M. Ernest Blum says that when he was a young man a friend, the doctor of the Theatre Porte St. Martin, gave him his seat. Just as he was becoming interested in the first act the stage manager rushed up the heroine had a nervous attack and required medical aid 1 Blum had nothing else to do but to follow him. In the lady's dressing room he found the manager with anguish depicted on every feature and the lady wringing her hands and shrieking. "Now, doctor, quick! What's to be done?" Blum grew as red as a lobster, and as he could not say anything he just ejaculated: "Ilm! Let us seel Let us Bee. ' ' He took the lady's hand in a wild at tempt to feel her pulse. She shrieked more than ever and writhed like a snake. "Have you poured any water on her head?" he asked. "Yes." "And no effect?" "None." "Then don't pour any more." After this display of medical knowl edge he continued: "Give her a sniff of eaude cologne." "Haven't any," was the answer. "Then go fetch some." Off rushed the manager and the stage manager, and Blum was left with his patient. Suddenly she opened her eyes and smiled. "Doctor," she said, "you are a good fellow, aren't you?" "Yes, ma'mselle. " "You must be, doctor. Now listen. There is nothing the matter with me. You would have found that out soon. I want a couple of days off. Can't you manage it?" "Delighted!" he replied joyfully. "Now, ma'mselle, you're a good fel low too. I am not a doctor. I came in on the doctor's ticket, so you must not give him away. " By this time the manager and etage manager came back, each with a bottle of eau de cologne. He told them that it was unnecessary now. The lady was quite composed and could appear with out any danger. But she must have a few days' rest. They made wry faces, but granted the holiday. Philadelphia Times. Fariiaiueatary Uatuor, The London World gives this as an illustration of the keen humor of Jus tice Darling: On one occasion, when Mr. Gladstone was beginning to give up the lead in the house of commons to Sir William Harcourt, it was noticed by the members that he left the house at the dinner hour ana air w uuaru Harcourt led for the rest of the sitting. Mr. Darling one evening drove Sir Wil liam to fury, on failing to elicit a defi nite answer to an inquiry, by casually observing in the course of his speech, i "I have noticed that lately the party opposite, adopting an ancient precedent, ias set up a greater light to rule the lay and a lesser light to rule the night.
