A communication from Adirondack
arrived late Wednesday night, too late
for this week's issue.
II. J. Rohweh, of Ft. Calhoun,
Washington Co and formerly of this
city, died on the 27th ult.
Messrs. Chapman & Ueeson, of
this place, are retained as the attor
neys in the(Bohannon, Cook case. The
plea, we presume, will be self defense.
Ocrt old newspaper friend, "Boo

lectures are very highly spoken about.
The 15. & It. K. 7s within one
hundred miles of Deuver, and travel
ling that way at railroad speed -not
quite sixty miles an hour, how
ever. Queen Victoria was shot at on
March 2d, by a crazy man named
McLean. Fortunately his shooting
was as much off as his mind and no
one was hurt.
The State Teachers Association
will meet at Crete, March 2tb, 28th.
and 30th. AH information concern
ing the meeting can be obtained of
Prof. D. H. Perrv, president Doane
college, Crete.
A little girl born in Saunders Co.
whose father is a greenbacker, was
married Frankie Weaverette, after
three prominent greenbackers, Frank
Norton, Gen. Weaver, and congress
man Gillette. Will that insure her
plenty of greenbacks all her life?
Dan'iH. Wheeler left for Denver
Sunday last, to take charge of the
great Exposition to be held there this
summer." We are sincerely glad Mr.
Wheeler has accepted this position and
hope he may make as great a success
as the importance of the object to be
obtained deserves.
Capt. Palmer and his old friend,
Capt Price, of the Regular Army, call
ed yesterday. In a few moments' chat
Capt. Price went over a whole decade
of prairie life, and interested us ex
ceedingly. Capt's. Price and Talmer
were on Gen. Connor's staff togethei
during the Rebellion.
The Herdics at Lincoln do not seem
to be a success. There ought to be
some way to get to the Capitol In less
than t,70 hours, and without travelling
all round the city first. We have
tried three times to get there in a Iler
dic, and feared the season would be
over faofore we reached the spot. . v
Daj Farrel, of Glenwood. sher
iif of that County, had a narrow escape
and a desperate fight with two des
peradoes and train robbers that he ar
rested in Wisconsin. The citizens of
Mills Co. presented him with a gold
watch and chain as a memento of the
occasion and his bravery in capturing
these men. .
The Cass County Agricultural So
ciety met on Saturday last. A v.ery
large turn out greeted the eyes of the
visitor, and much more interest was
displayed than we anticipated. Mr.
Crosby was elected Secretary, and we
think, as the Journal puts it, the "new
deal" will insure us a gcod fair next
Fall. We will give the details on out
side next week.
All ovvir southern Illinois, Indiana,
Ohie, and down the Mississippi they
are having immense floods, doing
great damage to life and property and
throwing thousands out of employ
ment. Perbaps we do not really ap
preciate how favored this country has
been for years in not being scourged
with any great calamity or serious
drawback to its great prosperity.
We had the pleasure of meeting Mr
Knickerbocker, of the Juniata Herald,
for the first time, during the late
meeting of the Editorial Association.
He is rather severe on our Mr. Rush
uell and still sticks to his Finch let
tersays he saw it, it was shown to a
dozen others and they all believed it
to be Finch's handwriting. Bowen in
included. He says 13o wen well, well;
may be we'd better not meddle if this
family quarrel, but if Boweu's right
ear did not burn that day, it never
will, not even when he gets down below.
Klots in Omaha.
Very serious labor riots have occur
red in Omalia lately. It seems the H.
& M. 11. It. Co, let the contract there
for grading the grounds in to ruled for
their new depots, Ac , needed by the
extension of the road to Denver, to
J as. Stevenson, who, advertid fr 30o
men and set about a hundred to work
at 81.2 per day. After working it
few days some of the men became dis
satisfied and struck for $1.50 per day.
They were joined by others in the city
and the work ceased. Stevenson or
fering, after a time. $1.40 per day. The
B. &. 11. Co. finding their work delayed
abrogated the contract with Stephen-
son and set their own men to work
paying $1.50 per day. This did not
suit the Omaha Unions and l.orers,
it seems, and they continued the strike,
forcing these men to quit, although
they were protected, or an attempt was
made to protect them by the police of
the city. The B. & M. then took men
up from Plattsraouth on a social traia
nights and mornings. The matter
culminated yesterday evening when a
mob of 1500 or 2000 men marched on
the ground and cleared the working
men, officials of the road and city po
lice off the grounds and effectually
stopied all work for the present
We have not full particulars at this
writing but greatly regret the whole
affair for the future of our State as
we fear it will cause a cessation of all
but the most important work all aleug
the entire line.
The nomination of Conkling fwr
Judge, if accepted, takes one of the
mcst disturbing elements out of New
York politics, for whether Coukling
desiies it or not. he is inevitably con
sidered as a factor pro or con iu every
move in the political chess-board in
the Empire State and will be for years
should he abstain ever so much f rom
active participation in conventions
and public meetings. The nomination
shows political sagacity and fore
thought of a high order in Pres. Ar
thur. Under all the circumstances
Conkling ought to accept.
The non appointment of Sargent to
the Cabinet is also a mark of wisdom ;
however able Sargent may be and well
qualified, there is a prejudice against
him from California and over the
Country generally that would have
made a Cabinet appointment of that
nature unwise. As Minister to Ger
many, his talents and real business
ability can be recognized aud develoj-
ed-to the benefit of our foreign affairs
and the nelfare of the whole country.
Since writing the above it is under
stood Mr. Conkling declines.
The Commissioners at their last
meeting (in February) appointed
twenty-four road supervisors to fill va
cancies ; of these only four or five have
qualified. In order to have the land
road tax appropriated and worked out
supervisors must qualify, otherwise it
is a cash tax. The Commissioners
have done their duty, and we call at
tention to the matter that some steps
may be taken to fill thefr places. The
legislature cut the salary down from
$2 00 per day to $l..r0 per day, an un
wise change as $2 per day was small
enough for the attention of a good
man. Still districts should get togeth
er at once and for their ownj good re
commend some one who will serve if
the present appointees do not wish to.
If so recommended the Commissioners
will reappoint on such request.
Hon. Lawson Sheldon was up here
last Friday, and we learn that Mr. and
Mrs. Sheldon will celebrate their Sil
ver Wedding on the 18th of this month.
All the old suttlers in the neighbor
hood are invited, and when it ceme
off the Herald will aiise to congrat
ulate those old friends en their good
fortun, anu their success in th gieat
State of Nebraska.
Hon. Ctucs Alton, our school
superintendent called in to see us yes
terday. Mr. Alton has been verytusy
aud is making a thorough overhauling
of school matters aud posting himself
generally these days. He is an indus
trious man, we all know, and our
schools will feel his influence before
the term is out.
The new branch of the M. P. It. II.
from Avoca west seesas to be a hydra

elsewhere. Where you going with
your cross-road, Mr. House, any way?

It takes a Piatlsmouth man to
thoroughly engineer an editorial puff.
Last week the owner of a new restau
rant down there decided to open up
with a grand flourish, aud in order to
give it the requisite amount of re
spectability and tone, he invited all
the scribes of the town to "see him"
during the quiet hours of evening.
They came in pairs, armed with pa
tent elastic bowels and burnished
teeth, waistbands prepared for an
emergency and appetites sharpened for
a square meal. The memories of the
feast were visible in the next edition.
Deacon Bushnell "pawed the colum
ded air" with pious exclamations;
Sherman painted the emotions of a
full stomach in glowing? colors, and
MacMurphy loudly clapped his palms
for more. It is always safe to
strike the scribes of Quality Hill be
lew the belt. Bee.
And it takes a Bee reporter's imag
ination to polish up nothing into some
thing; as MacMurphy was not in town
that night and has not as yet even ate
a morsel in Murphy's new place, he
could not very well have clapped for
more. There is "nothing in it" enly
this story coming on the heels of the
various Registry yarns last week, of
what this one did and that one wanted,
most of which were clear faced false
hoods, reminds us: "Do newspapers al
ways tell the truth?"
MaHy persons will take no medi
cine until prostrated on a bed of sick
ness. . This is folly. Nature always
calls for assistance when needed to
throw off impurities. With our habits
of life, it is necessary to render this
help. Pricsly Ash Bitters will not
force nature, but acts wildly and ren
ders the assistance required. Try
them. 4irt3 '
The Musical Couventloa and Concert.
The Musical Convention, under the
Directorship of Prof. Seager, was the
event of last week in our city.. Over
eighlv persons participated in the ex-
! ercises of the Convention which con
! histea of two sessions a day, afternoon
and evening for six days. The Con
vention terminated with a grand con
cert Thursday evening. At eight
o'clock the rising of the curtain dis
closed sotnye seventy of our musical
people, who, at the proper signal from
the professor's baton, gave the chorus-
-O, Hail us. Ye free." from the
Opera Ernani. Our first impression
was one of. surprise, at the progress
made iu so short a time, by so large a
number representing all grades of cul
ture and ability. We were also at
first a little disappointed at the lack
of volume for so large a number, but
when we retiocted upon the acoustic
proportion of the stage and hall.it was
easily explained; unless the sound
emanates from the extreme front of
the stage, one half of its volume is losi
and with so large a number it was
impossible to bring them forward.
One of the most pleasing features ol
the evening was the display of talent
by the little f.,::s; in the semi chorus
"Our Baby" aud ' the marching song
"Rambling", they did themselves great
credit, as well as their instructor, and
gave a fair outlook for the future
musical ability of Plattsmouth.
As announced in the program Miss1
Maggie Dawson, who has been for
neatly a year past absent in Philadel
phia and New York parsuing her mus
ical studies, under the best of mas
ters, among them Heruani, appeared
aud favored the audience with a cou
ple of selections. Ouu a duett. The
Gypsey Countess." assisted by Mr. Pet
tee, and "The Sob Song"fromOIivette,a
solo. Miss Dawson has profiled well
by her instructions, and sang in an
easy, unconstrained manner, which
was very refreshing. The acting in
Sol Song was very tffective, als, and
the i espouse to the encore, a election
iroiu Olivette also, was a delightful
little bit of sarcasm badniageand wit,
well sung and acted.
The humorous duett by Mrs. Wise
aud Mr. Gallagher, seemed to strike
the audience very favorably as also the
eacore "Spelliug Lesson." Prof. Sea.
ger himself favored us with a duett
accompanied by Miss Ola Barnes,
"When Ye gang awa, Jamie," which
with its astonishing httle impromptu
aside was enjoyed about as much as
any selection during the evening. MU
Raines, so the professor announced,
had but one day of preparation on this
p relty Scotch baliad, and was therefor
deserving of much commendation for
her really admirable manner, both of
singing and acting, although the diffi
culties were diminished by such effect
ive support. The audience, delighted
at the happy ending of the love affair
of lamie and Jeannie signified by
theirpersistent applause their intention
of being satisfied with nothing but a
repition of the same aud the profess
or indulgently humored them. Here
occurred the.delightful little impromp.
tu aside, alluded to before; as Jeau
nie lays her hand upon Jamie's should-
r and protests her undying affection
a slight commotion was heard in the
first row of benches where the little
foiks were seated, and a youngster cf
about rive was discovered standing up,
saying "Oh, Ola, Ola, ain't you ashamed
of yourself. You ought to have your
picture took" and clapping his hands
and laughing with all his might. It
proved to be Miss Ola's brother, little
"Cap," who was so struck with the
idea of his sister making love to a
great big man up on the stage before
all those people that he could not re
strain himself. The professot seeing
the comical acting of the youthful
clitic was also entirely overcome, and
the audience taking in the scene were
soon convulsed with laughter, aud
cheer after cheer testified their appre
ciation, during which the Professor and
Miss Ola most graciously bowed them
selves out and left the floor to little
Cap.
Prof. S'-'ager, we understand, will
visit Plattsmouth again previous to
his great mass concerts te be given iu
Omaha and Liucolu, and after this
most successful proof of his ability to
do. what he undertaker,, we predict for
him a warm welcome, whenever he
comes.
A word of commendation is particu
larly due Misses Pollock aud Living
ston for their services as organists, a
position somewhat oueious ana hardly
appreciated at its full worth, aud
which ware rendered by them most
acceptably.
It used to be said of Plattsmouth
ncusiciaus Oh you caa never get them
to work together," but this has proven
that they can and do work together
under favorable auspices and that
when they do they make a musical
noise ia the world, equal in volume aud
Uue to the assembled musicians of
most towns the size of this.

Some twenty years ago Conkling,
Blaine, Allison, Windoiu, aud Wilson
were all republican members of the
House together. They' were all poor
at that time very poor. They were
of about the same age, had about the
same start, and have been in public
life constantly. Blaine is a million
aire; Allison, of Iowa, in the Senate,
is another millionaire; Sherman is
trebly a millionaire; Windom is a
millionaire; Wilson has also got to be
very rich. Roscoe Conkling, the ablest,
greatest, proudest of them all, is poor
to-day. No man came so near to be
acting president of this country dur
ing the eight years of Grant as Conk
ling. No mail in Washington, except
Grant, had such power, such influence,
such opportunities. Mr. Conkling did
not profit by them. He is poor to-day,
and this characterizes the difference
between him and other leaders of the
Republican party.

" For Oad. an J lioiuts. aad Native Laud."
On tiie evening of the first of this
month Mr. Eli Johnson gave us his
famousjecture, "What they diink and
how thfcy make it." We wish every
citizen r of Plattsmouth. could have
heard it.. Mr. Johnson is a mast effec
live spee.ker; his lecture was altogeth
er different from ordinary ad Sressrs
upon the temperance question. The
facts he adduces from his observations
are so convincing, that he rivets at
tention and carries conviction to the
hearts of his hearers. All were de-
lighted with his address.
Theaddress of Dr. Meade on' last
Sabbath afternoon in temperance ha!!.
was listened to with interest by all
present. - He took for his subject.
"The effect of Alcohol upon the brain;'
his address was carefully prepared
and well delivered. Let the battle
ag-iiost alcohol go on all over our
country. Mr. George Magney follow-
with a few well timed remarks. These
meetings are growing in interest; may
they be continued and may the effort's
of the temperance people in our com
munity, be crowned with success
Meeting on next Sabbath afternoon at
4 o'clock. Everybody invited.

Judge Noah Davis, who will shortly
arrive at the twenty-fifth anniversary
of his accession to the judiciary of the
State of New York, declares that the
cause of all the crimes brought before
him during that time could te traced
to intemperance.
A body of Temperance Union wo
man, headed by Mrs. La Fetra called
and formally presented President Ar
thur, for the White House, the mas

since for the painting of Mrs. Hayes.
The ladies requested that the picture
when hung permanently, be placed in
the East Room, to which request the
President replied that their wishes in
the matter should )e complied with if
practicable.
A Slather's Influence.
The following gem should be read
iu every family:
A mother un the green hills of Ver
mont was holding by the ri?ht hand a
son, sixteen years old. mad with Ieve
of the sea. And as she stood by the
garden gate that morning, she said;
"Ed ward, they tell uie. for I uever
saw the ocean, that the great te muta
tion of seaman's life is drink. Prom
ise uk. before you quit your mother's
baud. that you will never driuk liqttor."
"And," he said for he told the aiory,

the garden gate did not rise up before
my eyes, and to day I am innocent of
the taste of liquor."
Was not that sweet evidence ct a
single word? Yet that is not half.
"For," still continued he. "yesterday
there came into my counting-room a
man of forty years old."
-Do you know me?"
"Ne.".,'
"Well," v he said, I was brought
drunk- into -your presence on ship
board; you were a passenger; they
kicked me aside; you took me to your
berth and kept me there until I had
slept off my intoxication. You then
asked me if I had a mother; I said I
bad never heard a word from her lips;
you told me of yours at the garden
gate, and to-day I am master of one of
the finest ships in New York harbor,
and came to ask you to come and see
me." . . . .

Beer and Bright' Diseases.
Gath, in one of his letters to the Cin
cinnati Enquirer, from Nev York, re
ports a conversation between him and
Dr. Montross Pallea, who was promi
nent in the recent great convention of
physicians in London, from which we
take the following: '
"I asked Dr." Fallen, among other
things, if he theught there was any
connection between lager beer and
Bright's diseases.
"The man,' said he, 'who habitually
drinks l eer is sure to have Bright's dis
ease. Beer in large quantities is one
of the .worst things a man can ruin his
stomach and organs with. In Germany
where the students drink a great deal
of the beer when young, their kidneys
and bladders are always affected.
