Mr. Fiuch says the Herald does

morals, and blackguard the citizens of

Eminent Commander.
Mr. William Agnew and family
moved into their new house on Wash
ington Avenue last week, and his
change of residence necessitated his
resignation as councilman in the first
ward.
One or two mistakes erept into the
City Clerk's report and the Ordinance
published last week. In the City
Clerk's repoit in money's received, in
stead of county" fund it should read
"cemetery" fund. In section six of
the ordinance instead of the word
"barn" read "frame," "any person or
persons shall not erect a frame build
ing," etc.
The repeal of the Fire Ordinance
last week was a good thing to do. The
Herald had not time last week to
comment on the aanie, but we say now
that it was a wise thing to do and
gives every one a chance to build if
they will, or have the means. With
such guards new frame buildings are
infinitely safer and better than the old
shells now on Main Street. And then
what a handsome lively little street it
could be made, just think of it with
good buildings and a good even side
walk and stmie crossings, there is no
street in Nebraska that could or would
equal it. Lets get our business diffi
culties fixed up and do it; that's the
way to make a fortune for the town.
The sheriff of Douglas county
started from Omaha on Tuesday morn
ing last to take an insane man to the

and the party started for Plattsmouth
afoot; arrived at the Platte the luna
tic again escaped and get into the hills
where the sheriff and brother failed to
find him. After searching awhile un
successfully they came on to Platts
mouth and had been here but a short
time when the insane man came into
town on a wagon which had crossed
the ferry at the same time with them.
He was again captured ami taken to

Mr. Finch's labors in the Tem
perance cause closed here on Monday
evening by a Temperance festival held
at Fitzgerald Hall. Like the meetings
held previous to that the festival was
attended by a numerous throng. The
exercises consisted of music by the
band, an address by Mr. Finch, two ex
cellent readings by Mrs. Finch, "Mrs.
Maloney and the Chinese," and a tem
perance selection, singing by the choir,
and afterward promenading and social
intercourse, and partaking of refresh

was estimated that about eight hnn
dred were present, and the receipts of
the evening were $52.00.
Friday afternoon a juvenile Temple
of Iloner was organized by Mrs. Finch
the meeting taking place at the Metho
dist church; it was largely attended
by both children and grown peop'e,
and a number of children enrolled, we
did not learn just hew many. Mr.
Finch made some lemarks on the use
of tobacco. The subjects of his dis
courses on Saturday and Sunday eve

Benton's Speed Accelerators.

horses' mouths to aid their speed, car

It is simply in keeping with common
sense to say that a specialist who
gives his undivided attention to the
treatment of a certain class of diseases
ought to succeed, where practitioners
in general practice may fail. Dr. E. B.
Foote, ef 120 Lexington Avenue, New
York city, has given his exclusive at
tention to the treatment of chronic
diseases for twenty-five years, during
which time he has cored thousands
whose faces he had never seen. If you
will send to him for his searching list
of questions you will see how this has
been done in patt Consultations in
person or by mail free. Dr. Foote's
works, Plain Home Talk embracing
Medical Common Sense, Science in Sto
ry, etc., are publications well known
to the reading public. Taking all of
the Doctor's publications together it is
not too much to say that millions of
copies have been sold.

Allow a cold to advance in your sys

maladies, such as Pneumonia, Hem
orrhages aud Lnng troubles when an
immediate relief can be so readily at
tained. JJosciee's German Syrup has
gained the largest sule intho world for
the cure of Coughs, Colds, and the se
verest Lung Diseases. It is Dr. Bos
ehee's famous German prescription,
and is prepared with the greatest care,
and no fear need be entertained in ad
ministering it to the youngest child,
as per directions. The sale of this
medicine is unprecedented. Since first
introduced there has been a constant
increasing demand and without a
single report of a failure to do Its work
iu any case. Ask yoar Druggist as to
the truth of these remarks. Large
size 75 cents. Try it and be conviuced.
