King & Co. , are making their cigar store ahino with interior Improvement ] . The harmony mission glvo ono of their dlmo sociables at the residence of H. DoLong this evening. How about that proposed board of trade building ! That project should not bo allowed to die away with mere talk. W. W. Chapman has loaned to the art exhibition a very fine picture , it being The Bohemian Girl , " a painting by Ebort. " This evening Is to toke place the prom ised elocutionary entertainment by Miss Jessie Conthoui , and there ia every proa- poet for a good honso. Mrs. A. B. Peak , mother of Mrs. A. W. Wyman , died In Keg Greek yesterday morning , of old ago. The romalna will bo taken to her old homo In Troy , Now York , for burial , leaving on last oven- Ing'a train. t . , . . 3J The editor of the evening prohibition organ IB now famishing the readers of that paper the moat satisfactory work ho over dcno on the paper , ho now taking a complete rest , and allowing the edi torial columns to bo filsd with old plates. ANOTHER ASSIGNEE'S SAM. The dry poods stock of J. B. Davidson la now on aalo at prices that will sell the goods. Thin Is a rare chance for bargains , as the ontlro stock must bo closed out at once. Main street , second door below poutoffico. James "Wlckham , assignee. Ono of the latest and best , attractions at the dime museum and theatre IB Prof. R , A. Stondoll , who is a whole show of himself. He has what ho calls "tho electro musical thaumaacopo , " and with this ho presents aomo remarkable musical and optical effects , which are not only curious but beautiful and pleasing. The cold wave which struck this re gion Wednesday evening has alarmed these Interested In fruit culture , and who now fear that the ftult crop has been Badly injured for thla season. Some think that these fears are not well founded , however , and that , coming so early in the season , there will bo time to recover from any bad effects. Among the new houses just being opened In this city Ia a retail boot and snoo store by R. I. Sklloa , formerly of Omaha. Mr. Skllos Is a gentleman of considerable bnslnesa experience and no doubt will liven up the trade. He has located at No. 102 Main street. In the store formerly occupied by T. N. Bray , the shoo man. The democratic orgaa takes up a half column in an attempt to explain satisfac torily why It Is that so many cases are started before John Jay , and so few are carried through. It takes all thla apace in explanation of ono case simply. By the time It gets aronnd to all of thorn , Including the St. Jo house case , It will have , llttlo epaco or time for news. If the dear old lady really thought that the BEE'S description of the pictures in the art exhibition was worth giving to the readers of her scrap book , she should have had the grace to have credited the article to the BEE , instead or repro ducing it as original , and she should have taken the pains to have corrected ono or two slight errors which crept into the BEE article. "Does Death End All ? " is the heavy question which Joseph Cook will try to answer in hla lecture at the opera house noxVMondty evening. Ho is ono of the greatest thinkers and grandest orators of this ago , and will come as near answering this important query as any man can. He will doubtless be greeted by a full house , and those who have not already secured tbolr seats should not delay , as in this caio delays are dangerous , A colored man who was employed as a nurse In the small-pox cater , and who was not satisfied with the amount allowed him by the county board for wages , saod the county In Fralner'a ' court , with Patton - ton as his attorney , and secured a judg ment sgdust the county , and sold the judgment , at whatdlaconnt Is not known but now it appears to bo the property o : Galvln , the third of tbo trio , and he is preparing to have the superior cour issue a mandamus to corapsl the count ] board to levy a tax to meet tha judg mont. Some four montha ego a man hired a saddle hccvie of Slater & Eller , stating that ho wanted to ride to Fontanello From thav time until last Wedneedaj nothing was seen or heard of the horse YTedueadey the horse waa driven Into Oambeiland , and at once recognized b ; John Tanrmsb , who Inquired wboio th driver obtained It. lie replied that I belonged io a Ccrulna livery stable , and that tha proprietor had bought it abou four months previous. Word ws at one ent to Slater & Ell r , and Wash Eli drove cown * and claimed It , bringing i back with lim. The man who blrtd I will probably never bo heard of again. Atlantic Democrat.

In regard to the other Inhabitants of bo house , the woman claimed that these nnoyancos existed there when she took ossession , and that Scott had not kept Is promise to furnish paper and white- rash to clean up with. The most lively scone of the afternoon osslon waa the cross-examination of Mrn. llohardson by Scott. 3 ho attorney is .nown to bo ono of the sharpest tongnod nes at the bar , and ono of the keenest a cross-examining witnesses , but for nco ho found his match , the woman be- ng "loaded for bear.
