Ever since the burglary at the Mis
souri Pacific depot "Wednesday night
Detective Delong, Sheriff Wheeler
and Deputy McBride have been hard
at work on the case In an effort to ap
prehend the criminals. Yesterday the
authorities of nearly all the surround
ing towns were notilied of the affair by
telegraph.
The first response to those telegrams
was received late yesterday afternoon
from South Omaha, to the effect that
a couple of men had just been arrested
there who were thought to be the men
wanted in Plattsmouth. It afterwards
developed,' however, that the suspects
were ooT the parties wanted.
Late last night a message was aito
received from the authorities at Paci
fic Junction, which stated that a couple
of suspects were being held
at that place. Operator Becker went
to that place this morning, but he
found that no arrest had been made
two suspicious-looking tramps had
simply been seen lounging around the
town, but in the meantime they hrul
started out for other parts.
Messrs. Delong, Wheeler and Mc
Bride have been out of the city, and
no further facts in regard to the pro
gress of the search for the criminal
could be learned today.

From Thursday's Daily.
Shortly before 12 o'clock last night
Operator Becker of the Missouri Pa
cific had an experience with a couple
of robbers . which he will perhaps re
member for some time to come. About
that time two men, with handkerchiefs
concealing their features, quietly en
tered the depot,and before Mr. Becker
realized what was up one of the men
had him covered with a revolver, and
he was politely requested to behave
himself or he wonld get filled full of
lead. The men appeared at the ticket
window. A dog happened to be the
operator's only companion at the time,
ana, when the animal rushed out to
attack the strangers, Mr. Becker
quickly slammed the ticket window
shut.
There was a skirmish for a few
moments, but the dog was dnally.dis
posed of and the window again opened
before the operator could arm himself.
After that the robbers were masters of
the situation. They tapped the money
drawer and took therefrom about $" in
money, and then told the operator that
they were anxious to take a look at the
inside of the safe and demanded him
to open it for them. This demand,
however, could not be complied with.
as Mr. Becker knew no more about the
combination than they did themselves,
It was hard to convince the men of this
fact, aud they pressed tho weapon close
to his head and made bold threats to
fill his carcass full of bullet holes if he
did not forthwith comply with their
demand.
Finally they told the operator to ac
company them, and he was marched
up the track for a distance of about
three miles. Then they ransacked
his pockets, removing therefrom a
pocketbook containing about 94 and
also a watch. They kept the money,
but returned the watch and empty
pocketbook to the owner.
Section Foreman "William Briseey,
who lives just opposite the depot, hap
pened to be sitting on a tool chest near
the house at the time tho men entered
the depot, but did not suspicion any
thing wrong until he saw the men
make their exit, accompanied by the
operator, and start down the track.
He quickly notified the officers, but be
fore they arrived Mr. Becker hai re
turned. Officers Fitzpatrick and
Charles Hassen and J. I. Dunn started
down the track in pursuit of the rob
bers, but they did not succeed in over
taking them.
Detective Delong of the Missouri Pa
cific came in from Omaha this morn
ing, and is working on the case with a
view of apprehending the criminals
Two theories are advanced one to the
effect that the men are headed west in
tho direction of South Bend and Louis
ville, and the other that they have
gone to Omaha, but as yet nothing
definite is known.

The Nebraska Agricultural Experi
ment station for three years furnished
inoculated chinch bugs for the purpose
of ascertaining whether or not this
method of fighting the insect was prac
tical. It was learned during this time
that, where instructions were followed
faithfully and the climatic conditions
were favorable, tho disease worked
well. On the other hand, where con
ditions were unfavorable and instruc
tions only in part or not at all com
plied with, the results were almost in
variably negative.
Since no supply of the infection can
be obtained from private sources by
our farmers, the pressure has been so
great recently for a continuation of
this work here that the university has
oncluded to send out a limited supply
of the fujgus to those who are suffl-
cien tly interested in it to give it a fair '
rial." It can be obtained by writing

Surprise Their Pastor.
From .Thursday's Daily
it was something of a surprise to
Dr. Baird last evening to notice the
unusually large attendance at the
weekly prayer meeting, about 100
members of the church and congrega
tion being present. This was not, how
ever, due to any sudden accession of
piety, but was owing to the fact that a
number of parishioners remembered
that this particular Wednesday even
ing rounded out the twenty-five years
of Mr. Baird's ministerial work in this
city, and resolved to make it some
thing of a reception to their pastor and
his family. At the close of the ser
vice an hour or two was spent in social
chat and pleasant reminiscences,and a
purse of silver was presented as a sou
venir of this joyful occasion.
The relations between pastor and
people have always been most pleas
ant, and last evening's reunion will
tend to cement the bond more closely
and give a fresh impetus to the work
of the church.

Oovernor W. A. Poynter Renominated
For Chief Execotlre.
Speaking of the fusion etate conven
tion held at Lincoln, the State Journal
Bays: "The fusion state conventions
which were held in this city yesterday
and day before were unusual in tbe an
nals of fusion in this state in that
every stage of the proceedings were
marked by wrangling and general dis
satisfaction. A t'eket was nominated
which creates absolutely no enthus
iasm; the division of spoils was un
satisfactory all around and the feeling
among; the rank and file of the so
called reform parties at the final ad
journment was that of general hope
lessness. The old time fire and en
thusiasm was entirely lacking.
"Tbe delegates had spent one whole
day and night in a discussion of the
division of offices and in waiting for
tardy conference committees to report
and yesterday morning found them in
no pleasant humor. The night of
watching and waiting bad worn out
the "common people" who were on tbe
delegations, however, and it was evi
dent early Wednesday forenoon that
the officeholding element bad complete
control. This became so apparent be
fore noon that a large number of the
delegates made preparations to return
to tbelr homes. Tbe nomination of
Governor Poynter hastened the ex
odus, and the afternoon sessions of the
conventions were characterized by a
general rush to get through in time
to catch the evening trains. The ques
tion of the division of spoils having
been settled very few worried about
the character of tbe men who were to
make up the ticket."
The complete ticket decided upon is
as follows: Governor. W. A. Poynter.
Boone; lieutenant governor, . A. Gil
bert, York; secretary of state, C. V.
Svoboda, Howard; auditor, Theodore
Griess, Clay; treasurer, S. B. Howard,
Holt; attorney general, VV. D. Oldham,

have met more people having used
Green's August Flower than any other j
remedy, for dyspepsia, deranged liver

find for tourists and salesmen, or for

headaches and general bad feelings
from irregular habits exist, that

One Minute Cough Cure is the only
harmless remedy that produces im
mediate results. Trv it. F. G. Fricke
& Co.
It is reported that a brute who lives
in the Second ward e-ot angry at his
wife this morning and threw a cup at
her, striking her on the head. Some
of the neighbors were in favor of hav
ing the man arrested for his brutal
conduct, but the woman (doubtless re
membering former sceneB of this char
acter) refrained from doing so, and
concluded to let the matter droD.
However, it is quite likely she will
have her husband prosecuted in case
he attempts a repetition of the demon
stration he mada this morning.
