The enormous growth in the bicycle !
business in recent years is indicated!
by the fact that whereas the total
number of bicycle manufactories in
the United States was but six in ISSo,
with an output of only 11,000 wheels,
and in 1890 but seventeen, with an out
put of 40,000, at the present time there
are 126 factories, which will make an
aggregate of nearly or quite half a
million machines this year.
The chorus club of the Thurston
Rifles have postponed their tripHo this
city until next week, when they will
give a musical entertainment at
White's opera house. The date and
program will appear later.
In referring to the manner in which
visitors were entertained at the dis
trict declamatory contest in this city
last week, the Weeping Water Repub
lican says: "The visitors all speak in
the highest praise of the courtesy and
attention of the people of Plattsmouth.
There was nothing left undone to in
sure th6 comfort and convenience of
all visitors, all of whom, had they
notified the committee of their com
ing, would have been entertained by
the generous hosts. Plans had been
made to take visitors over the town,
through the shops, and across the
river, but these plans were spoiled by
the rain. The attention of the High
School and citizens of Plattsmouth,
this year, stand out in striking con
trast to the colossal indifference of
Beatrice last year."
C. H. Parmele planted a small patch
of alfalfa cn some of his land near
Cullom last May and on examination
yesterday found that the plants had
grown very nicely, the roots extend
ing some eighteen inches in the
ground in one years growth. Being
such a dry season, it was not expected
that the first year's growth would be
so favorable. Mr. Parmele has con
eluded to plant one hundred acres this
spring and has already purchased the
seed for the purpose, the same costing
him $5 per bushel. Mr. Parmele is
the first one The Journal has heard
of who will plant alfalfa this year on
such a large scale.

taken from the creek: it isn't fit for
a man to drink; it makes me weak and
sick. Aud having spoken In this
strain, I went and bought a cow, she
had a soft and loving eye, a lofty.
thoughtful brow; she was a mournful
orphan cow, a creature calm and tnild;
the man who sold her said that she
was gentle as a child. I said, tonight
we'll have some milk as pure as milk
can be; and then I took the pail and
went to milk her, merilt e. That gentle
creature humDed herself and kicked
me through the roof, and left upon .my
classic brow her trademark with her
hoaf: she causht me on her crescent
horns and tossed me o'er a tree, and
then came round to where I lay, and
calmly sat on ui? ; he danced a polka
on my chest and jibbed in with her
horn, until I wished, like Job, that 1
had never once been born. My neigh

old cow was gone; they put in splints
my busted back aud glt.ed my forehead
on; they riveted my shoulderblades,
and nailed my collar bone, and fixed
me up in such a shape that I could
walk alone; and I toddled off in haste
though feeling pretty sick, to get the
milk the milkman brines from some
where down the creek. Walt Mason.
