Our prediction that a. rare treat was
in store for those who attended the
operatta last evening was more than
realized, for a better musical enter
tainment has not been given in the
city for years.
The choruses were a surprise, as no
one expected such good work from
forty voices with such a short time
for training, and two things were
clearly proven, first that Plattsmouth
was possessed of much musical talent,
and that Prof. Watson is a musical
director of unusual ability. Many of
the young ladies had never appeared
in public before and the same was
true of the young men, but their
singing did not indicate that fact, and
we desire to give special credit to
Prof. Watson for his skilful woik as a
conductor which brought out so much
latent talent.
The music was of the bright spark
ling catchy sort which everyone loves
to hear.
Miss Edith Paterson us Queen, took
the leading- part beautifully, and her
rendition of a sweet lullaby was to
much admired that she had to respond
to an encore. Her voice and expres
sion were pleasing and called f- ih
many flattering comments. Mnytu;
Sulivan as Dorothy has a great range
of voice, although being ahih so
prano, she sang the contralto parts
withli-emarkable smootness hand chows
that she has a well trained voice.
Miss Ella Clark as Monica, the for
tune teller, teemed especially adapted
to her part and carried it thro witn
nerfectease and confidence, while her
character representation depicted the
ideal gypsy. Miss Clara Street, as
Margery, in her song, "'Twas Milk
ing Time," carried one back to tneir
younger days. Her voice was rich ana
full and her 6olo was one of the pleas
ing features of the evening.
Miss Matilda Vallery as Juamta had
some difficult music to execute, which
she rendered most successfully and
was appreciated by the audience.
Miss Claire Drummond represented
Janet in a modest unassuming manuer.
but with a charming voice that earned
the many compliments passed by her
friends who had not before heard her
sing in public.
The character of Ruth was grace
fully presented by Miss Kitty Agnew,
who sang her solo parts very accept
ably.
Space will not permit of a further
report today. The same program will
be rendered tonight and a complete
report will be given tomorrow.
District Court.
The trial of H. Mecum which begun
in district court yesterday, occupied
the attention of court and jury all day
today. Curtis, the victim of the as
sault was unable to positively identify
Mecum as his assailant probably from
the fact that he had been clean shaven
and dressed in new clothes. The evi
dence for the prosecution is all in and
evidence being taken for the defense
as we so to presj. The case hinges
entirely on the matter of identity
as to whether Mecum is the fellow who
assaulted the boy.
Thirty Dollars for a Son.
The Kits family at Murdock mourns
r.hn rlfiTmrtiira from home of one of
their bright, hopeful sons, Charley

was a general family melee and the
