An open meeting of the Royal Arcanum was held at the Jenne opera house on Tuesday evening. The house was filled with members - bers of the order and their invited - ed guests. Addresses were delivered - livered bv Rev. Mackay and \1. M. Giller both of Omaha , the speakers holding the undivided attention of the audience by their eloquence. Although the Royal Arcanum is a comparitively new order inthis . city , its membership is very large and includes many representative citizens. The in- vited guests feel very grateful to the order for the splendid enter- tainment that was afforded them. The special musical feature of the evening was a vocal ! sOlo by Blanche Kerr. - Base Ball. Two games between the Falls City and Beatrice teams were played on Sunday and Monday. The game on Sunday resulted in a victory for Beatrice , the score being 8 to 7. But on Monday it was a different matter. The home boys went into the game to win and they did so , although it took ten innings. The score was 4 to 3 and it was a good stiff game from start to finish. An Error. An error , . which we deeply re- gret , appears on the editorial page of this paper. The editor wrote : "In short , it makes no difference what the democrats mayor may not do , this is going to be a republican year , ete. " The compositor made time sentence read : "It makes no matter what the democratic mayor may not do , etc. " It was purely an error and no reference to the city administration - ministration was intended. Struck the Horse. As Chas. Heilman , who lives on Route 5 , was coming to town Saturday , Mail Carrier Lively passed him. The carrier was on horseback and Mr. Heilman did not turn out. As the carrier went past , lie reached over and struck one of Heilman's horses and this became lively right away , the spirited , team coming very nearly getting beyond con- trol. Marriage Record.
