A grandchild of James O'Neil, Esq., living on the Iowa side of the river, died Sunday and was buried here on Monday. Dr. Jo. Hall left on Saturday last for another course of lectures at Rush Medical college. We commend his preserving efforts to fit himself for the profession he has chosen Last week Thursday b;ing the day on which the judicial district commit tee met at Nebraska City, the Her ald man thought he would go down and see the boys and swap yarns on the crops, horses, politics; and "sich." Hon. George Smith having invited us to a seat in his buggy we proceeded at once, as fast as George's fat little ponies could carry us. ('ass county looks beautiful enough about this time of year, the great big ears of corn are just beginning to bend so that a small man can reach them when husking time comes. We cross the famous Weeping Water at Smith's bridge; pass our greenback friend Foster's place, and behold we are in Otoe coun ty. The road along the bluff is very fine for miles this side of the city, a good view of the Missouri river being on one side, and the magnificent .roll ing prairie on the other. Arrived at the city, we found the de"e gates to the convention there, consisting of Judge Stull of Nemaha, Judge Mason repre senting Lancaster, J. C. Watson for Otoe, and M. B. Cutler for Cass. They met in the evening and decided upon Monday, September 23, us the day on which the second judicial convention should meet, and Nebraska City as the place. We tried to get "em to come to riattsmouth, but had to Fplit the difference, Yankee fashion. That even ing and next morning we met many old friends, Judge Tuxtury, former mayor; Mr. Monroe, the liveryman; got a glimpse of J. Sterling Morton; met Lot Brown just recovering from a sunstroke, and stumbled over Major Pearman's feet as he was turning the corner onto Main street, the Major be ing behind on the street a ways. The next morning Mr. Watson drove us out to the Institute for the Blind, in which they are taught to read and write and such trades at. they can suc cessfully use. Prof. Paimele, who fol lowed Trof. Bacon, has just taken hold and in spite of many disadvantages, has succeeded in demonstrating the fact that he is equal to the occasion Owing to a row between Spotted Tail and Yellow Hair about 150 lodges of the Cheyennes have left their new camp on the Rosebud in Kansas, and gone north, it iss upposed to join Sit ting Bull. The usual sickening details of devastation come to us. Men and children murdered, women ravished and property destroyed. Col. Thorn- burg with his commnnd are in hot pursuit and the Indians are scattering and abandoning their horses. IN PRESS DRILLS IN PLATTSMOUTH FOKTY YEARS AGO.

The butcher in Hatt's shop was thrown out of a buggy Tuesday and broke his leg. Charles Dawson, esq., has moved into the Schnasse house, and is now- content. Three times and Etop is Charley's motto.

With the aid of a cane he can manage to get home to dinner, however. Mr. Fritcher and family have re cently located in Plattsmouth, Mr. F. having a position in the B. & M., in Mr. Hawksworth's department.

White, esq., a former resident of Plattsmouth, has returned to dwell among us after a sojourn in the Black Hills for a season. He has traded for the Drew house on Sixth street and is busy already making improve ments. We welcome Mr. White to Plattsmouth again. Petty thieves have no show in riattsmouth any more. One John Woods, stole a coat and mershaum pipe from Henry Hartz. He skipped across the river, out of reach of the officers, but they started Hartz after him. With a little coaxing he was prevailed on to return, and as soon as he crossed the river the marshal nab bed him and "sent him up." From Three Groves Mr. Ambrose Campbell, from South Bend, is down on a short visit in this section. Big Frank Young has sold his beef cattle to Mr. Barker, to be delivered in April. D. A. Young lost a fine steer the other day, death caused by being hooked by the other cattle. Hugh McClean is getting to be quite a horse trader in these parts.

Mr. Schicketanz leaves Plattsmouth this week and returns to Council Bluffs to reside. His shop will still be kept open, however, by his brother- in-law. We are sorry to see Mr. S going away. We neglected to make mention last week of the fact that Mrs. Richey wife of Dr. Richey, the dentist, join ed her husband here. The doctor, owing to pressure of work, does not leave until the last of this week. Attempts have been made several times to enter the house of R. C Cushing within the past two weeks and as Mr. Cushing is away from home, Mrs. C. has only succeeded in driving them off by alarming the neighbors, Mr. Eaton and Mr. John son. It is hoped for Mrs. C.'s peace of mind that the thieves will be dis covered and punished. The greenbackers met at Weeping Water on Friday, the 13th, and nom inated the following ticket: Senator, G.
