The concert Riven by Hans Albert
and Don Long at the Presbyterian
church Monday night was the best
musical program that has been heard
in Plattsmouth for many days.
The church was comfortably filled by
an audience constituting the best ele
ment of people in the city, and all
appeared to thoroghly appreciate the
rare musical treat afforded them. j
Prof. Albert has been heard here be- j
fore and each time has made many
friends.
The concerto in G. minor. Max
Brucb, was played as it is seldom
played, while the Shubert serenade
completely won the hearts of the audi
ence. In all of his numbers Mr. Albert ex
hibits a wonderful technique, trilling
in double notes with perfect eafe and
si rikinz harmonies with an accuracy
that is astonishing.
Mr. Lone has a very fine touch, and
all the technique necessary. The
Rheinbereer Impromptu and the Mac
Dowell Elude were very finely inter
preted, and each won from the audi
ence an encore, to the former of which
he responded with Mandolinata, a
composition of his own.
Mr. Long undoubtedly has a great
future.
Miss Sullivan's singing was verj
much appreciated by all present. She
exhibited some nervousness at first,
from which she very soon recovered.
The young lady possesses a good
soprano voice, and her renditions last
evening was a pleasant surprise to her
Plattsmouth friends. Considering this
was Mis3 Sullivan's first appearance in
public, she did remarkably well.
Mr. Chas. Keefer, to whose efforts
the people of Plattsmouth owe this
excellent entertainment, is to be con
gratulated for bis enterprise.

The suit of Whitefield Sanford vs.

plaintiff's favor in Justice Archer's
court, has been appealed to the dis

The jury in the case of Wm. Smoots
vs. Wm. Rose, in which the plaintiff
sued for 82,000 damages for injuries
received at the hands of the defend
ant some weeks ago, the result of a
"scrap," returned this morning with a
verdict of $175 for the plaintiff.
A divorce suit was fiied today by
Wm. Darrough. Plaintiff alleges that
they were married April 21, 1870. and
that during all that time he has been
a faithful, loyal and true husband;
that during the year 1895, and at
divers times prior, defendant had been
guilty of extreme cruelty towards him,
that she had struck him three times
with a stick or board, causing great
physical pain and mental suffering,
and had called him harsh names, such
as "liar" and "damned liar." Also at
another time she had aimed a butcher
knife at his cranium, but by a clever
"duck" he had avoided being scalped.
Plaintiff sue3 for a divorce and such
alimony as the court decrees.
thieves Get In Their Work
Elam Parmele, who lives on his
farm, noithwest of the poor farm, was
in town Saturday, and reported to the
police that thieves had entered his
barn Friday night and stole one set of
double harness, one set of single har
ness, a saddle and bridle, and three
good horse blankets. The total value
of the stolen articles is something over
fifty dollars. No clew to the per
petrators of the theft has been dis
covered, and it is quite probable that
the goods will not be recovered very
soon.
We Wonder Who?
The young stenographer who has
been putting in so much time defend

of a theme to write on. It is wonder
ful how brilliant some people think
they are, and can never realize when
a brick house falls on them. The
young man should take a copy of
Blackstone and walk into the river,
with no fear of sinkinz. for he ia too

.vny reader of a home newspaper
can save many times the price of the
subscription during the year by watch
ing the advertisements. There is very
frequently a difference of from ten to
twenty cents per yard on goods, and
other things in proportion. Often
when a person makes purchases and
is not posted, he pays dearly for it.
The enterprising robber nowadays

The newspaper war in St. Louis, if

with each cigar purchased, or a shave,
or most anything else. With those
papers it is the larger the circulation
the larger the loss.

The editors of the Elmwood. Echo

a hunting party, and engaging in a
hunting contest the first snow of each
year. Monday these gamey editors,
each at the head of his respective di
vision went out into thesnow and wind

The members of each party got the
captains to stand guard while they
made a grand drive through an almost
impenetrable thicket. The editors re
turned to town about midnight and
each captain has ordered a court mar
tial of his respective command. Of
course an editor always gets mad un
less he can hold the sack and let the
rabbits jump in. Nebraska City Press.

George Parker, an old gambler who

once gave some good advice to a
young man who was drinking and
gambling in his establishment. Said
he: "I knew your father and your
grandfather, boy. They were cool

turned a hair if lightning had struck
them. They were good drinkers be
cause they never took a drop until
dinner, and never kept it up after one
o'clock. They were good gamblers be
cause they never tried to buck against
hard luck. You are like neither of
them. Take an old gambler's advice.

France or Russia should publish the
stories reported officially by the cool

stand aghast at the proofs. Wherever
these consuls have investigated mat

riots, are false. The American mis

Several years ago I discovered a

bowel which increased and became
very distressing. I made inquiry as
tothe nature of the disease and learned
that I had a somewhataggravated case
of Hemorrhoids or Piles. Was told of
several remedies and used them as di
rected, obtaining thereby some tem

such slight relief I cast about for a per
manent cure; when a friend directed
the use of the famous Magnet Pile

from pain followed, and soon a com
