We are vo; y sorry to le irn by a

written at Nebraska City, of the death
by croup of their little boy on the :lst
of August. Tiio remains w ere taken
to Nebraska city where Mrs. William's
mother was buri"d, and there interred
on Thursday lat. The little one
would have befon four years old the
1 th of November next, and was air
only child. His death is an over
whelming grief to his parents. Mr.
V.'. says, " Wc shall never forget the
generoiis, large-heai ted, kind friends at
Plattsmouth, and wo desire to thank
thcr.i heartily."
The other day llatt and his assist
ants undertook to capture a calf they
had bought to slaughter, and which
wa& in a field with a number of. other
cattle. The calf was lively and the
weather warm and after
pursuing it
for awhile they got it in a comer
and
undertook to hold it by the tail which
one of them confidently asserted he
could do. First one got hold and then
two cot hold, and then they danced a
lively jig and hollered some and then
two men were 11 Hindering half way
over a fence, and the calf w as the oth
er side, carrying its tail behind it.
But they got it finally only they
didn't try to hold it by the tail next
time, and the veal cutlets we ate the
next day were extra. Did anybody
have ealfstaii soup, we wonder.
- The notorious house on Second St.
was the scene of a robbery, on Mon
day. The woman who keeps it, was
about to leave for Den ver.it seems, and
had packed her available in a carpet
sack, which s t near her bed. It con
tained ;?103 iu money, some jewelry
and their traps. The carpet sack was
foun 1 next morning out in tha "Jimp
sen" weeds broken open and plunder
ed. She had two strangers arrested,'
but not having proof the Judge dis- j
missed them. One candid admission '
and a shameful one for those who are j
guilty was made during tho examina
tion. When asked who was at her
! house besides these men she said: "Oh,
a lot of the boys around town as there
is every night." Pity her ill gotten
gains were taken, for otherwise we !
might have got nd of the outfit which
is literally damaging the boys of the
town. -

There is a family living down near
the ferryboat landing by tlie name of
McGuiro the male representative of
which considers it a portion of hr, du
ty to beat and threaten to kill his w ife
semi-occasiunally, for which offense he
was arrested some time ago, and fail
ing to get bail he was safely out of the
way until Court set. She, with the aid
of a son, had partially earned money
to buy them a couple of acres of land,
but the father had drawn s-une of the
son's wages ju3t previous to his arrest,
and with a portion of them bought the
liquor which raised his spirits to the
necessary pitch to beat his wife. lie
succeeded, however under promise of
belter behavior in inducing his wife
to sign a mortgage on the land to par
ties for going his hail, and a hort time
after his lelease got drank again, and
beat her with a club so ba lly that she
was found senseless by men passing
on their way to tlie boat and cared for;
the man waj 1. 1st seen on a moving Hat
car and although diligently inquired
for is not forthcoming.
There are the or .six children, and.
so far as we can learn, the woman has
labored faithfully to maintain them,
and buy the place. Such a wretch as
tho man seems to have been deserves
t lie severest penalty of the law.

A a Undeniable Truth.
You deserve to suffer, anc! if you
lead a miserable, unsatisfactory life iu
this beautiful world, it is entirely your
own fault and there is only one excuse
for you, your unreasonable prejudice
and skepticism, which has killed thous
ands. Personal knowledge and com
mon senso reasoning will soon ehow
you that Greene's August Flower will
cure you of Liver Complaint or Dys
pepsia, with all its miserable effects,
such as sick headache, palpitation of
the heart, sour stomach, habitual cos
tiveness, dizziness of the head, nervous
prostration, low spirits, &c. Its sales
now reach every town on the Western
Continent and not a Druggist but will
tell you of its wonderful cures. Ym
can buy a sample bottle for 10 cents.
Three doses will relieve you.

A GeHle Hint.
In our style of climate, Avilh its sud
den changes of temperature, rain,
Avind and sunshine often intermingled
in using!.1! day, it is no wonder that
our children, friends and relatives are
so frequently taken from us by .neglect
ed colds, half tlie deaths resulting di
rectly from this cause. A bottle of
Boschce's German Syrup kept about
your home for immediate use will pre
vent serious sickness, a large doctor's
bill, and perhaps death, by the use of
three or four doses. For curing Con
sumption, Hemorrhages, Pneumonia
Severe Coughs, Croup or any other tli,
sease of the Throat or Lungs, its suc
cess is simply w onderful, as your drug
gist will tell you. German Syrup is
now sold in eA ery town and A iilage on
this continent. Sample bottles for tri

Star Manufacturing' Company, Port
Madison, Iowa; Gentlemen: The Cen
tennial rat poison, received last Mon
day. We have given three doses. On
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
nights, and we verily believe there is
mit a rat or mouse left. The saw mill,
feed, custom and merchant's mills were
full of them, as were also our houses,
cooper shops, barns and hog pens.
Sirce giving them the poison they have
been running round as "crazy as loons"
and the river bank is line with dead
rats, in fact it has created a terrible
commotion among Miem and they have
all left, thanks to the "Centennial Eat
Exterminator," each box of which is
worth a twenty dollar bill. We will
see our druggists and have them send
for it. Thanks, thanks. Wry respect
fully. E. M. liRITTS, & Co.
