A BRILLIANT AFFAIR.
The Banquet and Ball of tho Knights
of Pythias.
The social parti' which assembled
at McPberson Hall on last Friday
night in response to invitation by
Lodge No. 15 Knights of Pythias,
was the most brilliant affair of the
kind that ever took place in our city.
It was given by the generous Knights
In honor of the second anniversary
of the organization of their lodge.
Early In the evening the guests began
to assemble, and by nine o'clock about
all were in and numbered, we would
estimate about three hundred ladies
and gentlemen. Of course all were
well and fashionably attired ; but we
cannot, of so large an assemblage,
speak of all, and we prefer not to un
dertake pencil portraits of a few. If
we did, we should follow our taste,
and have It that ladies who were most
plainly dressed were the most heautl
fully aad tastefully dressed, and leave
the gaudy, flouuey butterflies out in
the cold, and such a proceeding would
be unprecedented, and cause many a
fair face to distort with an ugly frown
at our goodly intent.
Of the guests from abroad we no
ticed: D. A. Colvin and wife, of Rock
Port, Mo., and E. Colvin and wife of
the same place ; Col. Tom Majors and
J. P. Burdick, of Peru; J. P. Hoover
and wife, Nemaha City ; Hon. H. SI.
Atkinson, Washington, D. C; A. H.
Hill, Nebraska City; J. D. MoFar
land. Miss Jennie SIcFarland, Mrs.
Dr. McGlumphey, and Mrs. Dr. Ful
ler, of Lincoln ; E. Worthing, of
Bloomington.
After time lied elapsed for the guests
to assemble, the band played, aud the
Choral Union sang a piece. Then the
Knightly company, uniformed and
armed with swords, formed length
wise of the hall in military style, and
for a few minutes were drilled in
manual exercise with the sword.
When the swords crossed with a
clash, an electric spark thrilled us.
and we felt in a degree as we have felt
when our surroundings were muoh
mora dangerous than at that moment.
When the ewjrd exercise was fin
ished and the jompany of Knights
stood "at ease," W. T. Rogers, E?q.,
stepped froniitiie ranks a few paces in
advance, airti made a neat but brief
speech, tendering the hospitalities of
the occasion in behalf of his brother
Knights, to their assembled guests;
referred to the organization of lodge
No. 15, of its accumulating numbers,
hinted at the mission of the froterni
ty, gave assurance of Its loyalty to
country, and that ut a moment's
warning every sword would leap from
Its scabbard In defense of themselves,
their friends, their religion aud their
oountry. The remarks were well re
ceived by rhe audience, as manifested
by hearty clapping of hands as the
speaker retired to his post, and all the
Knights hastened to their posts.
We knew there were great'piles of
turkeys, chickens, hams, oysters, and
good things, somewhere not far off,
but we oouldn't see them no table
was set and wo thought now there
will be a tedious drag in tho business
of the eveuing waiting for the tables
to be spread. But we were never
more agreeably mistaken. Those
Knights and their wives went to
work, and llko a work of magio the
tables stood before the hungry crowd
laden with every luxuary and staple
article of food this market or any
other within a hundred miles could
furnish.' We have not seen such a
banquet since that given by the
Knights a year ago. And there was
abundance, too even Hetzel got all
he could eat, and left the table happy.
When all had become satiated at the
festal board, the two tables that
reached from end to end of tho hall,
disappeared moro quickly than they
had been placed thera, and Prof.J.R.
Dye with his violin, Ted Huddart
with his cornet, and D. T. Smith at
the organ, took the platform, when
Mr. Rogers yelled, "form on for a
quadrille," and they at once formed,
and kept on forming till the cock
crew for the morning. Nothing oc
curred during the entire occasion to
mar its harmony ; everybody was
happy ; even the generous hearted
Knights, who had. to work so hard,
seemed to be certainly their feted
guests were.

CENTENNIAL.
Brownyillo Takes Her Portion of the
Stock.
On last Thursday evening a large
audience of ladies and gentlemen as
sembled at SIcPherson Hall to hear
Gen. Brisbin talk on Centennial mat
ters. The meeting was called to order
by ex-Gov. Furnas, and Hon. H. C.
Lett chosen chairman. Mr. Lett nn
taking the stand, after a few pertinent
remarks introduced Gen. Brisbin,
who entertained bis audience about
an hour and a half in a very interest-ing-manner,
and told them more
about the great Centennial than they
had ever heard of before. It is un
necessary, and we have not space, to
give a synopsis of his remarks; suf
fice it to say that the meeting under
the General's forcible arguments aud
pleasant style of presenting the case,
became enthusiastic in favor of the
Centennial, and of Nebraska having
a hand In it.
On closing his speech he 6aid of the
$101000,000 of stock issued $30,000 was
apportioned for Nebraska, and that
ever dollar of it must be purchased.
It was only $10 a share, and twenty
shares must be taken in Brownville.
He then called for subscribers for
stock, when the twenty shares, or two
hundred,doIlars worth, were taken in
less than flfteeu minutes, by the fol
lowing gentlemen and ladiea:
Jno. L. Ctrson, five shares, $50

Tills success was very gratifying
and unexpected, and we do not think
anybody else but Gen. Brisbin could
have done it.
J. C. SIcNaughton was appointed
financial agent for this city, and the
stock is at the Frst National Bank.
It is expeoted that those subscribing
will take it up and pay for it within
the next sixty days.

of committees, the meeting adjourn

The Athlete Base Ball Club of
this city, played the College Club of
Peru, at Brownville ou Saturday last,
the game resulting in a victory for the
Athletes by a score of 25 to 24. Du
ring the fifth or sixth Inning Capt.
Gaede, the expert catcher of the Ath
lete Club, while attempting to reach
the "home base,'" lost his footing and
fell with suoh force as to break his
left collar bone. Notwithstanding
this drawback tho boys succeeded in
winning the day. This gme closed
the eeanon a season of crowning tri
umphs for tho Athletes. The boys
have met many neighboring clubs
during the season, and have met with
defeat but from one club the Clip
pers of Brownville. Before the close
of theseaeon, however, the Clippers
were compelled to surrendered their
colors to the Athletes, thus leaving
"our boys'' an unbroken chain of vic
tories. We find the above In the Roekport
Journal of last week, and reprint it to
correct two or three errors embraced
In it. First, the score of the game
played on the Saturday referred to did
nr.t stand 25 to 24, but did stand 24
each, and was so decided a tie game
by the scorer.
Second, Capt. Gaedo did not get
hurt whilo attempting to reach the
"home base," or any other base, but
was standing on the home base when
John Majors ran against him in his.
efforts to make the home base, knock
ing Gaede over. That Is tho way
Gaede was hurt.
Third, the Clippers of Brownville
did not "surrender their colors to the
Athletes," and for the simple reason
that the Clippers "got away" with
the Athletes two games out of the
oniy three match games played for
the season.
To recapltu'ate: The first game
was played at Brownville, and won
by the Athletes; the second game
was plaj'ed at Roekport, and won by
the Clippers ; the deciding game was
played at Phelps, aud won by the
Clippers. Those games were played
for a prize of a ball and bat, which
was duly awarded and delivered to
the victors. Now, this talk of our es
teemed cotemporary about the "sur
render of colors" is pretty thin, we
think.

It is expected and solicited by Col.
Sfajors that those who have anything

of preservation for Exhibition, will
bring or send it to him. He asks the
assistance of the people of the couu
tv in this matter. And all goods for
the Exhibition should be placed iu
his possession at as early a day as pos
sible. THE BEST PROTECTION.
The best safeguards against epidemic disease are
thorough digestion nnd firm nerves. It Is because
theyassura tse regular performance of the diges
tive process, nnd Invigorate the nervous system,
that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters are such a sove
reign protective against the Influences which beget
Intermittent maladies, and those which tiirectlyaf
fect the stomHch and bowls. If the nerves are
healthfully tranquil, the assimilation of food per
fect, as they are sure to be under the Influence of
this standard tonic nnd nervine, malaria miybe
defied; and If, In the absence of the most reliable
medical safeguards, the system 'has fallen a prey
to disease of an intermittent or remittent type, the
Bitters will. If persisted in, eradicate every vestage
of the malady. Biliousness, constipation and dys
pepsia yield with equal certainty to the operation
of this potent vegetable alterative.
An Unanswerable Argument,
The strongest argument in hard
times is economy. Louis Lowman is
prepared to sell goods lower than ever.
His prices are below anything ever
reached in Brownville. Practice true
economy price his goods, and you
will be sure to buy.
