DOYLE AT MURRAY He Spoke to i large Audience In That Village Saturday Night. A Journal reporter attended the meeting advertised for T. J. iHiyle, democratic candidate for congress, at Murray Saturday night. It was evi dent for some time before the hall was opened that Mr. Doyle would be wel comed by a good sized audience, as farmers from every direction could be observed entering the town to listen to Mr. Doyle, and they all went home feeling that they were well paid for their trouble. The meeting was called to order by II. L. Oldham, who introduced Judge II. D. Travis as the first speaker. And the way he poured the hot shot Into 'Easy Money" Pollard was not slow. He read a private letter which our eminent" congressman sent out last fall to the prohibitionists of the county, asking them to vote the re publican ticket, because the candi dates on that ticket were temperate while such candidates as W. D. Wheeler, John I). McBride and him self were drunkards, or words to that effect. Many republicans present who had never seen this letter, doubted its genuineness, and when It was shown to them they remarked that they had ntended to vote for Tollard, but this settled the matter with them. One republican said that the man who as plred to such a high and honorable po sition as a member of congress, and would stoop so low as to write such letters and condemn men whose ex cellent records are far above that of Pollard, he could not now be Induced to vote for him under any circum stances. Short speeches were made by D. O. Dwyer, candidate for county attorney, and Frank M. Massle, candidate for representative, who defined their po sitions on the Issues before the people of Cass county, and respectively so- lclted the support of all present. The Hon. T.J.Doyle waslntroduced and as he went forward to the platform he was greeted with great enthusiasm. Mr. Doyle spoke for about one hour and a half, and held bis audience spellbound during the entire time. Our candidate for congress favorably Impressed bis audience, and many who had never seen or heard Mr. Doylo; were eager to grasp him by the hand and tell him, that, while they were republicans, they expected to vote for him for congress. At the close of his speech, Mr. Doyle called attention to the slanderous cir cular the republican congressional committee were sending to the re motest parts of the district, in the hope of thus saving the hide of "Easy Money" Pollard. The circular Is a base lie through and through, and gotten out to counteract "Easy Money's" 11,900 graft from the U.S. treasury. Mr. Doyle pronounces the circular a base fabrication, which demonstrates the desperate methods the republican congressional commit tee has resorted to In order to get even with the charges preferred against the man who has disgraced the people of the First district. Our candidate for congress Invited those who were any ways Inclined to believe the charges in the circular, to write tosucu repub licans as Judge Holmes, and they would soon learn that the document was a bast lie. Mr. Doyle's explana tion of the charges met with the ap proval of all present, and we do not believe thcro was even one republican present who did not believe the circu lar a lie. Mr. Doyle was remarkably will re ceived In Murray, and It was the coal man remark that be was so far ahead of Pollard In oratory and gentlemanly bearing, that comparison was out of the question. He made many friends from the republican side of the house and greatly enthused the democrats. To say the least, the meeting was a grand success In every particular. Dentist. Drs.

QUITE H SERIOUS ACCIDENT John Beighmann, i Prominent Farmer, Re ceives Painful Injuries it Mynard. Mynar.i, Neb., October 20 Special to the Journal Yesterday afternoon, about 3 o'clock, John Beighmann, while engaged in unloading apples into a car from a wagon, met with an acci dent which will lay him up for several days and perhaps weeks. He was standing on the shoot at the car door, when the same gave way, throwing Mr. Beighmann to the ground, light ing on, first hl. hands and then bis head. One wrist was broken, and the other badly sprained and bis head bruised. Mr. Beighmann Is one of Cass coun ty's Industrious and well-to-do German farmers, living southwest of Platts mouth. Dr. J. S. Livingston was called to attend the unfortunate man, and says that nothing extremely seri ous Is apprehended. Burglar Visit Murray. While In Murray Saturday night a Journal reporter learned of the burg larizing of James Root's residence. For two weeks Mr. Eoot and family were visiting Mends at BeaverClty, Neb., and returned home Saturday evening to find that their borne had been entered by burglars, and many valuable articles taken. All the silver- wear and a new suit of clothes were taken. Thcr.e was not a k nlfe, fork or spoon left to use for supper. Evi dently the burglarly was committed the night before, as Mr. B. A. Root, a near relative, had teen in the bouse that day to see that everything was all right. Many of the cellars about town have also been entered recently and canned goods and other articles placed there for winter pilfered. No clew to the parties guilty of these misdemeanors. HE WANTS $5,000 DAMAGES Dr. Geo. W. Todd, Arrested fjr Refusing to Paj Occupation Tax at Valley.Neb. Dr. G. W. Todd, of Omaha, It seems, went out to Valley, Neb., on a profes sional trip and was arrested by the town marshal for refusing to pay an occupation tas of $1 per day, as pro vided by ordinance, and he now sues the town for damages. The Omaha Bee, In speaking of the matter, says: "Dr. George W. Todd, a dentist in the Karbach block, not only objects to paying tl a day for the privilege of pulling the teeth of citizens of Valley, but he wants that village and Oscar Talbott, the town marshal, to pay him $5,000 for alleged false arrest. The village council passed an ordinance re quiring visiting dentists to pay $1 a day license fee. Dr. Todd refused to pay It at first and was arrested by Tal bott. Then he paid the money under protest, but, he asserts the village au thorities were wrong in levying the tax. Suit for $",0,)0 was begun In dis trict court Saturday. The $j0 repre sents the money he paid under protest to avoid belug rearrested." Small Blaze at Weeping Water. A special from Weeping Water, un der date of October 28, says: "This town narrowly escaped a bad fire yes terday afternoon. About 2 o'clock, tire was discovered in the rear cod of the "Sunny Side" meat market, which is located In a nest of old wooden build ings, but the fire had gotten but little start when discovered and a prompt response to the alarm by the volunteer fire company, soon had It out and only a very little damage was done. There wasastrohg wind blowing from the north, and the fire started In the north end of the building, 'which Is, entirely surrounded by old wooden buildings, and had it not been discovered hi time would have completely cleailed out that corner."

A special from New York says "The thousands suffering from eczema will welcome the news that an exter nal remedy has at last been discovered w hich not only Immediately relieves the distress attending this dlsease.but permanently restores the skin to Its normal condition.

Through a letter received by friends in this city the sad intelligence of the death of a former Cass countlan, John W. Jennings at 8:43, a. m., yester day at his home in Atchison, Kao., was conveyed to the Journal today. The deceased, John W.Jennings, was a vetern of the civil war, and a prom inent pioneer settler of this county, where, many old friends and acquaint ances, who will regret to learn of his demise, reside. Mr. Jennings served this county as clerk for two terms, 1882-4, when the county offices were located in the old dilapidated building that they called a court house at that me. He also held the Dosition of commander of McConlhle post G. A. . of this city, and the last sad rites will be conducted under the auspices or this post, Conon II. B. Burgess of- ticiating. The remains will arrive in this citv over the Missouri Pacific tomorrow morning, and will be conveved to nn. dertaklng rooms In this city from which place the funeral will take place at 2:30 p. m. Friday. OThe following short biography of mis pioneer or Nebraska, we take from the "History of Nebraska:" "John W. Jennlnes. countv clerk Plattsmouth, was born in New Jersey, 1839. When oulte younir. he removed with his parents to Schuyklll county, rennsyivania. in 1S.j5 he came to Ne braska; located at Omaha: was en- gaged in real estate business for some two years. Removing to Bellevue, Neb., in 1857 heencraaied inthelnm. ber business, continuing in it till 1861, when he enlisted in the Second Iowa Cavalry, serving till October, 1805: wnen he was mustered out. he held the rank of adjutant of the regiment, having been promoted through tbe various grades in regular order. Mr. Jennings was then eneaeed In mer- cantile business In Factoryvllle, Cass county, reo,, till 1869; from then till 1872 he was employed as miller in a flour mill, afterwards In various ca pacities till he came to Plattsmouth. In 1875; was appointed denutv countv clerk, and occupied the position up to January s, j ssl', when he resigned to enter upon his duties as countv clerk. having been elected to that otllce No vember 8, 1381." The Greatest Mltfortune: Captain nail, durlnar a conversation with Scott, remarked, that people are making too much fuss about the loss of fortune. "Do you call it a small misrortune to be ruined In money mat ters?" "It is not so painful as th loss of friends." "I grant that." "As the loss of character." True again." as tne loss Of health? "Ther vnn have me." We certainly should pay more attention to the nreservini? of oui health than to the massing of money. Do not say, when you are not reeling well, that It amounts to noth ing and will soon disappear. It mav. but, what If it does develop Into a serious sickness? If at the slightest symptom or Indigestion you Immedi ately use Trlner's American Elixir of liitter vme, it will positively disap pear and you will enjoy the comfort of full health.

Sheriff Qulnton was in town Satur day and left some documents with tho county commissioners, notifying them to appear before the supreme court on November 7, for a hearing as to why they refused to repair the Platte river bridge. If the supreme court decides that Cass and Sarpy counties shall get busy, the bridge may be put in passable shape. We understand the commissioners of Sarpy county have been served with notices the same as in Cass. It Is not stated how the bridge shall bo repaired, but the papers state that the estimate is about $7,000 for the repairs. The fig. ures of tho bridge contractors wero closo to if 1 3,000, so the board will have to do better figuring If t hey get In the 87,000 llmlt.-Weeplng Water Herald. Croup.
