The sporting department of the Sun day World-Herald says: Only two men from Omaha went down to St. Joseph, Thursday, to see the Ryan Layton mill. The Plattsmouth affair has killed all desire for pugilism in this town. Murderer Harry Hill is ill, although his sickness is reported by the county physician as not likely to prove seri ous. II is close conlinemenfat the jail and the worry over his impending fate are doubtless the reasons for his in disposition. A western rxcliauve says: "A man singing 'Tush tliem Clouds Away' met with a horrible fate on our streets. I'll tell you we want rain and want it bad, and when a blear eyed, knock kneed son-of-gun tries to scare the clouds away. he"s going to get hurt.' Jack McKeuzie. a farmer living near Stanton, Xeb , was held up Fri day night on his way home from Nor folk and robbed of I3H0. the proceeds of his wheat crop. In the light to save his money he was slashed with a knife and only gave up his wad at the threat ot a bullet. The villains were unrecog nizable in the daikness. The remains of Michael McEntee. father of i has. McEntee of this city, were brought here Sunday from Chariton. Iowa, the late home of the des'faffd, and were interred in the Catholic cemetery west of town. The deceased was seventy-eight years old, and his demise, which occurred Sat urday, was due to his extreme old age. Last Friday's Bee says: "Xehawka as considerably stirred up yesterday by the arrest of one of her citizens for the alleged selling of spirituous drinks without a Iic-euse. Deputy Hubbard, who made the arrest, also subpa'uaed a number of witnesses. No one knew anything of such offense having been Ct'inuiitteil, and the matter was dis nnsed. The Missi s E.hel and Alice Dove departed last Friday evening for Eng land, where, they will p.nsue their Studies in vocal culture under the care of the masters in that profession. The little girls have a bright future before Ilium in the musical w oi Id. and their progress will be watched with keen in terest by their f riends and admireis in this city. Gov. Crotuide has issued his Labor day piocl.ml iimn in which he recom mends 'that on Monda. September 3, 1M4, all places of business be closed that opportunity be given those who toil by hand or brain to celebrate the day in such a maimer as is calculated to recognize and teach the worth of earnest effort, to elevate and dignify labor and improve the conditiou of wage earners in our midst.' Jerry Farthing pretends to be in dignant be ond all description at the criticism in the News in refer ence to Lindsay's bail bond, which stated that a '"judgment against Jerry for soD would not be worth five cents." Tiik JofKXAL extends the. right to Jerry to get just as indignant as he wishes providing his account for daily subscription amounting to some $22 owing to this office is paid sometime this side of the miUenium.

He didn't say much, but it required three-quarters of a column for him to conclude bis inning at any rate. Xow for J . W. W.

The Weeping Water Republican says: Our citizens were awakened this morning by the firing of the can non about six o'clock. It, came in on the 9:30 freight last evening, and was pieced in position on the hill above the Dinp this morning. The trim will have a stroi.g guard o er it da and night to prevent IMattsmouih people capturing it The people of lh- "vest end" ap pear to believe that l'iattsmouth peo ple really want the old cannon back again, and that the Nehawka boys played quite a joke on us when they came up here and stole it. The fact of the w hole matter is that ourpeopleaie really glad the dangerous old gun is no longer quartered b t Iii- community, and the "west end" people need not lose any sleep in guarding it. They could do us no greater favor than to keep it. When the gun was first brought to Plattsmouth, over a dozen years ago, it was carefully guardedand hid away, for fear that the parties from whom we stole it would make an effort to get it back again. But they did not appear to want it, and for six or eight years it was allowed to stand where it w as last used, until a dozen half-baked fools from Nehawka came up and hauled it away. Orion for float IC-prentrnrati v. The republicans nominated S. W. Orton of Weeping Water for float representative by acclamation at their convention at Nebraska City last Saturdav. Jno liuck, one of Cass county's best known fanners, was town Wednes- i day exhibiting some sample stocks , of weat. barlev. oats and grasses re Icently cut in Wyoming, where the country is irrigated. The stalks were taken from the farm of Mr. Buck's son. AH of the stalks were over six feet high, and illustrated quite con clusively that irrigation is a success. The Xebraskii City News says: "The republicans did their utmost to con vert the Weeping Water reunion of old soldiers into a political meeting. Church Howe opened Strode's cam paign there with a strong political speech; Strode followed the next day and told what he would do should he i be elected to congress, and then came John M. Thurston with his denuncia tions of everything democratic. Church Howe seems to lie working the old soldiers as smoothly as he worked J the grange. AROrSD THt COCKT ROOMS. DISTRICT COURT.
