' The Masonic Festivities of the' 27th,
were, taken as a; whole, a complete sue- j
cess.- At an early hour those who de
sired' to witness the impressive 'services
of the ! installation begun to assemble, 1
and bytha .appoyaled hxiur... a large con
course of people were.seateddn Fitzger- ;
aM IJalL The "craiV asseai!'4o4fr.t .
the proper time, "clad in : v.dtito. glove.-,
and apron?," atiJT.I. .W. Grand Master
Hill, R. W. Grand Sec. Furnastind II..
W. M. II. Dunham were introduced to
the' audience, .and M. TT. Grand Master
Hill proceeded with the ip.srallatlon cer
emonies which were conducted In a most
es?cr.wr.t manner. At the close of the
ioitallation, R. V. Grand Sec, Furnas
proceeded with a Masonic . address,
which was listened to with great inter
est by the outsiders 33 well as the craft..
He spoke at some length of the origin
ar.d principles of Masonry, and demon
straied, by scund reasoning, that the
order is far more bcaeScial to thsLuman
race than it is generally accredited with,
and that, while it does not claim to" be a
religious order, yet it contains and main
tains all the essentials of true religion.
At the close cf tho address a unanimous-
vote was had j-e questing a .copy
for publication. At 9 o'clock supper
was announced at tho Brooks . House,
and something more than one hundred
sat down to the r&t tables. The new
landlord cf tho Brocks House did him
self credit in- the get yp of the repast,
wh:ch consisted cf.all that could be wish
ed by epicurean appetites. . Mr. Cox
has fully sustainad the high reputation
he brought here, and 31r. Fitzgerald
may Well feel proud of the management
cf the Brooks House.' There is no bet
ter kept bou?c in the State than the
Brooks, and no landlord who knows
better how to cater to the comfort of
the public than Mr. Cox. " Supper over
th?rcal "festive" part began at the hall,
where Johnson Bros. Brass Bandatruck
up a lively tan.-. Ar.d right here we
wiili to remark that Plattsmouth is proud
"of this .land, believing that they cannot,
be curpas:-ed in the State. They played
seven instruments, and brought forth
s'rai.fiS "of music such" as' nb properly con
structed and appreciative feet could with
stand. Until the "'.?e frj:i. hours" fiour
twenty eight to "S2"coupIe at a time were
0:1 the floor, and not cn incident occurred
during the tutire time to mar the pleas
ure cf tho occasion. Those vrho were
preterit wid long remember the oecvdon,'
and ihoss who were not 1 rcieiit hliould
have been if they expected to fully up- .
predate it, for we cannot impart to them
r. iufHeient knowledge of tha a ft air to
answer the purpose. . Tlie: thanks of the
participants are. due to tlie various coui-.
mittees for the harmony which prevailed
ia all the various departments, but they
lira especially due to the committee cf
gjneral arrangements for their untiring
zeal iu the matter, and the exactness
with which the parts conformed to each
other. Wo hope "fur icany recurrem-cs
of the festivities of St. Juhn the Evan-gali-t's
D.'y.
Mr.' JtiuiCd Cil-be ca'.icd at the Hku
ALi) sanctum to-day, and left a suspicious
looking box, which, upon a careful ex
mination, proved 10 contain a tuagt.jdcent
cake, accompanied by a note fiom the
ladies of the M. E. Church Mite So
ciety of Weeping Water, addressed to
"ye editor of ye Herald."" The cake,
upon further examination, was found to
contain all the good things (hat. usually
enter Into compounds of this kind, and
the note contained a brief state
ment "of the success of the "Neck Tie
Sociable" hi?'.! at Weeping "Water 011 the
evening of the 2'J ;: also the thanks cf
(he aforesaid ladies for favors from the
Herald.' -They must have had a
"grand old time," for the icceipts were
over $200, and the net profits not far from
$150. This was doing remarkably well
considering the storm that prevailed
that evening, and speaks well for the
social aud religious qualities of
the people of" Weeping Water.
The Herald - is ever ready to lend its
aid iu matter-? of this kind, and we hope
our lady friends in the vicinity of
Weeping Water (as well as every ther
portion of Cass county) will not forget
this fact, nor the other fact that we es
pecially delight in giving al! the publici
ty they may deserve for all social gath
erings, "without ' rucney and without
priee" (although we have a good, mouth
for cake). -
i;ACliI.V; OUT.
The B. 'Sc il. E. R. Co. in Nebraska
have purchased the O. & S. W. Rail
road, and wiil commence operating it on
the first day of January. The Platte
river will be bridged iu the vicinity of
La Platte early in tho spring, and trams
will be run regularly between Piitts
ciouth and Oraahn, so connected that
passengers and freight from Omaha to
the wet wiil go out wittiout delay.
This gives Omaha a. direct connection
.with... the whole south wejt country via
Plattsmouih, an i will ensure that .city a
large amount of trade with this county,
unless our own tuerehnnts do something
to Loll it. We lock upon the purchase
of this liue by the B. &M. as ra" favor
able move for Plattsmouth, as' it insures
this cit3 as the actual business terminus
of the U. P. on the Missouri river, not
withstanding the o5ces and depots may
beat Omaha or Council BluS's. The
B. & M. ia the important eouueetioQ cf
the U." P., and is even now carrying a
large Lotrjority of the passengers and
freight of that road ; and whsa 'the
Tf.ittto "and Missouri 'bridges are com-j
pleted at this, place, it mckc. taij tho j
C)-ussiu;7 j";yJ far all frt'Ight and pas.-e:i j
fr'?r:tffie of tha B. & M.. whether frcia i
their own lines west or from the U. P.
at Omaha. This is mt otily a good
thing far Plattsmouth, but is also the
very thing which halps Omaha out on
the ; transfer question ibr, under this
arrangement all , freights," aad passengers
for the B. & M. (which will undoubtedly
be tha majority of the trade cf the U.
P. )Arill be cf 7itccsty . transferred from
one toad to tho other at Omaha, while
the actual transfer across the river will
be at. PJattauioath. Ilurtah for th j B.
.LM.ihe great thoroughfare of the
west, and which ere' many . years, will be
the greatest thoroughfare on ths conti
nent. Report of the thirl 'month cf the
Second Ward Public School, Platts
mouth Nebraska. Ten is considered
perfect in Deportment and Recitation.'

seems in his usual good health and spir
its, notwithstanding the ponderous (?)
blows of the SV(ie.-t:ri?i or the Omaha
