sweeper. They have them in other
cities not as large as Plattsmouth,

much cleaner. Let the business men
agitate the question.

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.

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.

Invited to Leave Town.
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.

C. T Peacock, prosperous young
