The Presbyterian choir met for reorganization last evening at the residence of G. L. Farley. All of the old members were present with one or two exceptions, and many new members will be found In their places. It would be a good idea for the city council to purchase, a street sweeper. They have them in other cities not as large as Plattsmouth, and why not have one here? The work could be done after closing hours, and the streets could be kept much cleaner. Let the business men agitate the question. In a little advice to some of the citizens of that town the Pender Re public says: "The place that gives a man his living Is entitled to his best efforts to advance everything calculated to benefit the place and community. No man has a right to live in a town who Reeks to enrich himself and not actively identify himself with Js interests. Reports from Mr. and Mrs. R. A.

Lee Applegate has been a sick man the past several days, but at last reports he was improving. A. L. Becker went to Peru Monday to make arrangements for his daugh ter Mary to attend Bihool at the state normal this year.

Sunday evening this vicinity was visited by what may be called a lit tle cyclone, something unusual at this time of the year.

A girl was born to Mr. and Mrs. Roy Sack Friday, September 10.

The little 2-year-old son of Ora Edwards swallowed a pin Thursday morning. A liberal dose of epacac caused the little fellow to throw It up, however. The mammoth contract of stripp ing for the Hugh Murphy quarries, east of town, Is almost completed. It has required over a year of work with steam shovel, excavator and wheelers and has cost a large sum of money. All that is left now is to clean up, which will be completed In about two weeks. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Phelps were at Omaha Wednesday, where they went to visit Mr. Phelps' sister, Mrs. Paul, at the St. Joseph hospital, where she has been an inmate since July. It will be remembered that about one year ago Mrs. Paul's hus band, Dr. Paul of Omaha, died very suddenly while having a tooth ex tracted, and It Is thought that the shock of his sudden death was so great that it had much to do with Mrs. Paul's Illness. State Fair Deficit. The state fair this year will show a deficit of about $16,000, according to the figures submitted by the board. The receipts this year from all sources were $55,858.34. The expenses of the fair will reach $63,' 000. The surplus of previous years amounted to $24,235.82. Added to the expenses, however, will be from $8,000 to $10,000 required to put the grounds in shape. The deficit occasioned by the immediate ex penses of the fair is thus in excess of $7,000. To this must be added the expense of putting the grounds In shape The total number of vis itors fell about 11,000 short as com pared with last year. This would have In itself merely cut down the profits of the fair. But Instead of the fair costing $50,000 it coBt $63,. 000. This occasioned most of the Iosb. Lincoln Star. For Sale.

A Conklin I goou investment to start t A. 4 line of Tablets, Pencils, fact anything in School At the Burwood, Omaha. At the Burwood theater, Omaha, the last three nights of this week the Messrs. Shubert will offer a return engagement of that very funny com edy, "The Blue Mouse." While It is true that offense has been taken in some quarters of the country at "The Blue Mouse," that it has been unjust ly taken is shown by the fact that nearly every critic has pronounced it wholesome and without a flaw. The alleged risque element is lacking to a marked degree, while on the other hand there is much real comedy in the play that must be taken as a hearty effort to please and amuse. It will be remembered that "The Blue Mouse" was presented here late last season, when the Burwood theater was crowded with Omaha's best people, who paid it the tribute of hearty laughter. Had the play been of so prurient a nature as some writers have tried to make out, it could hardly have met with such a cordial reception. There will be a matinee Saturday. The arrange ment of the Missouri Pacific's sched ule this year is such that Platts mouth people can attend either a matinee or evening performance at the Burwood theater. Asa Snyder, whose headquarters have been at Grand Island, spent Sunday with Mrs. Snyder and Leroy, who have been here at the home of her father, A. N. Sullivan, since the serious illness of her sister, Mrs. Alice Towie.

Gill, the tailor, took on several too many Tuesday and as a result Marshal Hagan got him. After a night In the village bastile he was taken before Justice Lewis and drew a fine of $15 and trimmings. Gill Is a foxy boy and reported that he had been touched for his roll.and Henry Pettif, who was seemingly with him, by some one at sometime, was under suspicion and accordingly searched. Henry had only acted the part of n. good Samaritan and endeavored to take care of the tailor, but Marshal Hagan, who has seen a few in his time, concluded that it might not be out of the regular routine of business to submit Mr. Gill to a search to ascertain whether or not his claim of being robbed was authentic. He found $55 neatly tucked away in one of his socks. Gill had expressed a desire to leave town and go to the coast, and Judge Lewis, who, up to this time, had borne the reputation of a stand-patter, took pity on the wayward one, and under the promise of getting out of town on the first train, remitted the fine and costs with the exception of $1 due the mar shal. Louisville is again minus a tailor. Ledger. Corn Is Ripening. C. T Peacock, prosperous young farmer from Eight Mile Grove pre cinct, was in the city today, and re ports the corn crop as ripening up nicely. He thinks his corn and that of the neighbors Is somewhat better than last year, and will do to gather this year earlier than usual. The last two weeks have seen a goodly number of our fall suits go out of the store. The nobby ones are go ing first. You'll know ours when you see them. They fit different from the common clothes.
