A MEETING CALLED For Next Friday Evening at the Court House. LOOKING OVER THE YARDS. The B. M. People Will Consider the KtqaHt of Tbclr Trainmen to Make Flattaoaoath Dlvlsloa Point Notes. Cltiiens Meeting-. A meeting of all citizens interested in the welfare and prosperity of our city is called to meet at the court house on next Friday evening. The meeting will consider an important proposition, looking to the location of a large manufacturing establisment at Plattsmouth, and it is desired to have a large attendance. By order of chair man of committee. Geo. E.Dovky. Looking Over the Yards. Two or three weeks ago the trait men on the Burlington running be tween Oreston and Lincoln complained to the management of the road thai the run between the two points was too long for one division, and asked that Plattsmouth be again made a division point, so that their runs would begin and end in this city Pacific Junction was formerly a divi . sion point, but the train men do not want to return to the Junction for the reason of lack of residence accommoda tions, and prefer this city as a place of residence. As is usual in such cases. no intimation has been given by the railroad company concerning what ac tion may be taken by them, but that they are giving the matter considers tion is evidenced by the fact that an examination of the yards here was made last week, probably for the pur pose of finding out what could be done in the way of increasing the trackage and what additional room could b secured in the yards, so it is within the range of possibility for Plattsmouth to again be a division point on the road. New Burlington Extension. Mike Elmore, the Black Hills rail road contractor, was Tuesday awarded the contract for filling in the big bridge across Anna creek and other bridges on tbe Spearflsh extension of the Burlington & Missouri's Black Hill9 line. Thepiice is understood to be about 33 cents per yard. Kilpat rick Bros., James Ryan and W. S Ileckert were the other bidders. This will complete the work on that part of tbe road. It is through the section where the recent labor troubles have occurred, and 100 men receiving $2 and over per day were forcibly prevented by the Miners' union from digging ditches for a mining company, the union alleging that they should re ceive S3 to $3.60 per day. No trouble is anticipated in keeping railroad laborers at work at reasonable wages A Bow In the Third Ward. Report reaches this office concerning a bloody row which occurred up in tht Third ward last Saturday afternoon It appears that a man, name unknown while passing the residence of Unclt "Walker, the colored man, living at the corner of .Ninth and Granite streets made some insulting remark to one of the women of the household, where upon three husky darkeys appeared on the scene and gave the white offender a severe drubbing so severe, in fact that hereafter he will have a date in bis calendar by which he can recall subsequent events. This paper has no use whatever for a man who would offet insult to a woman, be he or she white or black, and believes that in this case the offender received exactly the punishment bis offense deserved Ward Is Bound Over. The case of the State vs. W. S. Ward cuargeu wun aisposing or some mortgaged corn, heard before Justice Archer last Saturday, resulted in the defendant being bound over for trial in the district court, and bis bond was fixed at 8300. When his case was tirst called and continued, Ward was al lowed to go and his personal recogniz ance taken for his appearance when wanted. But upon the day set he failed to appear, resulting in an ex pense of several dollars to the county. Now he will have to put up a real bond to tbe value of 1300, or remain in custody. Looks Bad For Parker. The people from this city who were called to Fremont Tuesday as wit nesses in the trial of tbe state vs. Bert Parker report that the outlook is first class for Parker serving the state for a term. The evidence against bim is positive, as he was taken in the act of burglarizing a freight car on the On ion Paci fic at Fremont. The eloquence of Attorney Gering may pull bim through however, at least lessen his punish ment. And still Plattsmouth is minus a democratic postmaster. When ! oh, when I will we be satisfied in this ever lasting longing? D. O. Dwyer, lawyer, Plattsmouth. AROCND THE COURT BOOMS. DISTRICT COURT. Ilans Hendrickson vs. W. II. Pool, Jos. M.. Beardsley, S. W. Orton and J. T. Ritchey is the title of a suit filed in the district court. Uendriokson alleges that by reason of Mr. Pool's failure to properly record a mortgage. while the latter was register of deeds, he was damaged in tbe sum of $2,500 Messrs. Orton, Beardsley and Ritchey were Mr. Pool's bondsmen, and for that reason are made party defendants to the suit. COUSTTY COURT. License to wed was issued in county court Friday to Mr. Wm. D. McClure and Miss Anna Miller. Tbe parties came from Omaha. Judire Ramsey lihs issued a mar riage license to Mr. A. C. McCullough and Miss Elizabeth Sporer. The par ies reside in the vicinity of Murray. and the ceremony will be performed this forenoon at 11 o'clock. JUSTICE ARCHER'S COURT, .lames Cavanangh, a stone mason from Nehawka.was taken in oat of he cold in an intoxicated condition Funsday. Judge Archer thought the kind act on the part of tbe police was worth a total of $7 80, and Cavan augh drew a sight draft on Nehawka friends for the amount. Pending the arrival of the funds his presence at the jail furnishes security. COURT ROOM NOTES. Miss Margaret O'Rourke, who has -erved as deputy in the reeister of deeds office for the past four years, severed her connection with that office Friday. Tbe young lady has made a most competent official. County Superintendent Farley was holding his monthly examination of prospective teachers at the court house Saturday, and the following were in at endance: Giralda Hayes, Lucy Hylton, Elmwood; Grace Chevront. Greenwood; Emma Sans, Rock Bluffs; Charrie Butler. Weeping Water; Stella Norris, Nehawka; Nellie Satchell, Carrie Holloway, Isabel Wiles, Platts mouth. The Missouri Pacific railroad com pany has filed a petition in the su preme court asking for reversal of a judgment of 82.500 obtained by John F. Tietken at the last term of district court. The company alleges that some thirty-four errors were made in the trial, and strongly insinuate that Mr. Tietken was intoxicated when injured at Weeping Water. NebrHgka City News. Morton Uouse Receivership. Yesterday John C Watson went to Plattsmouth and made argument be fore Judge Chapman asking that a re ceiver be appointed for the Morton house. David Brown was appointed. with Robert Lorton and W. L. Wilson as sureties. It is understood that an effort will be made to rent tbe house and have it run for the benefit of the creditors.

Young returned home from the county seat Wednesday, the com missioners having completed their work at this time. Mr. Young has made a good record at the bginninp of his term of office, and it was largely through his influence that the order was given for cleaning up the old county jail, the letter of the other two members of the board in the Isews to the contrary notwithstanding. Ne hawka Register. In a conversation with a newspaper correspondent recently Justice Post of the Nebraska supreme court expressed himself very favorably ta the commis sion- lie Deuevea rue comminsiuu as of more value to tbe interests having business before the court than an in crease in the membership of the main court, for the reason that the time of the court is largely taken up with the routine work of the regular sessions, such as listening to arguments and passing upon motions The commis sion is hampered by none of this routine work and is thus enabled to give its entire time to the consideration ol cases placed in its hands by the su preme court. The operation of the law for nearly a year has ronvinced the court of the value of the commission.

The regular occasional prize fight occurred at West Lincoln Saturda) night, when Lou Cardner, colored, and tbe "Denver Kid" met in fistic array. They fought six rounds in pretty gooa spirit, the Kid getting slightly the worst of it. At the end of that round he explained that he had just come out of the penitentiary, had enjoyed no chance to train and was not in good trim. He said he would fight one more round and quit, whether he was knocked out or not. The seventh round was a draw and they divided the money. Then someone who had put up money on the Kid swiped him a lick for luck and a free fight ensued in which an attache of a P street hardware store laid out a number of aspiring pugs with neatness and dis patch.

It is reported that an order has been received at the B. & M. shops here to vacate tbe round bouse building, which has been used for a freight car repair shop. Just what this order means is not known, but it means that the division will be returned to this point or that tbe company wants tbe building to store the locomotives now lying idle at Havelock and other points along tbe line. Constable Chas. Spence of Louisville was in town Tuesday. He reports that the Louisville gold-find is actual. He himself was a skeptic until Tuesday, when he was thoroughly convinced that the gold was actually there. The only question is, according to Mr. Spence, whether the yellow-metal can be unearthed in paying quantities. Just at present the prospecting parties find it mixed up with fine sand at a depth of some thirty-five feet. Mr. Spence says that the find wiil be thoroughlv investigated. Coal at Clark's. Plenty of good coal at Timothy Clark's coal yards, for cash only. No cash, no coai;. T. Clark, IN AND AROUND THE TOWN The Murdock Columbian says: "Hides wanted at the postoffice." Is it possible that the people of Murdock are also afflicted with a republican postmaster? Dispatches from Washingt n in jes terday morning's papers bring the in formation that the democratic ad ministration had decided to allow an increase of pension to Henry Watson of this city. Mr. Watson is a veteran of the war with Mexico. County Attorney Travis is in re ceipt of a letter from a cousin, E. E Fife, who has just returned to his home in Ohio after an absence of live years in India, where he has been do ing missionary work. Mr. Fife has been called to .Lincoln and after next month will regularly occupy the United Presbyterian pulpit in that city. Leon Lozier, the Council Bluffs rapist, when he arrived at the peniten tiary in Fort Madison, was dressed tip in stripes, the regulations of the prison being that prisoners placed there for safe keeping shall conform to the regulations governing other prisoners, except that they need not work. Lozier preferred to work, which is really more than could be said of him before his departure from Council Bluffs. The fifth annual reunion of the "Ne braska Soldiers' Association" will be held at Omaha commencing January 31, 1894. Arrangements will be made with hotels and railroads for reduced rates. ? Resident comrades will en deavor to render the occasion one of pleasure and to secure comfort to visi tors during the session. Plattsmouth will doubtless send a delegation of first Nebraska veterans to the reunion. Attorney B. A. Gibson, brother of Dr. Francis N. Gibson, who was hurt in the Burr block elevator at Lincoln a few days ago, says that he thinks his brother will survive his injuries, but will in all probability be a cripple for life. His physician says that he is not getting along so nicely as he should like; that he has rested very little since the day of the accident and has not yet passed the danger line. How ever, nothing serious has developed thus far. The priests and laymen who are op posing Bihop Bonacum so bitferlt cl lim to have scored another victory over his reverence.
