The sale of tickets for the bensfit of the opera how:e enterprise do not seem to be as brisk as was expected. The Rescue fico company’s annual ball will be held in Bloom & Nixon's hall on Elnhgivin‘ night. A merry time for Edward Wiokham was taken very ill Saturday with a severe hemhorrhago of the lungs. He was reported yecsterday as somowhat easier. The work of filling op the streets has been pushed forward pretty well the past week, and ten days more of favorable whether will help out greatly. St. Patrick's benevolent society is to give aquadrille party at St. Joseph's academy hall to-morrow evening, and a good time is assured all who attend. Dr. Macrao reports that Charles Riley, the Union Pacific switchman, who lost a log By the cars Friday enening, is got- ting along very nicely, and it is thought will pull through all right. In the orowding of the week with amusements, the letter carriers shall not bo slighted. Their first annual ball on Wednesday evening at Bloom & Nixon's hall should be largely attended. Some boys have been arrested for stealing coal from the Chicago & Rock Island yards. Police picking is getting very thin when they find nothing but boys and country editors to arrest. Arrangements are made by thechurches for a union service on Thanksgiving day at 11 o'clock . m., in Broadway Metho- dist church, the sermon to be by Rev. A. K. Bates, pastor of the Presbyterian church, There ought not to be any further de- lay about tho fire alarm system. The present. one should be abandoned at once, it is 80 unreliable as to be worse than none, and tho first-class one should be put in its place as soon as possible. Judge Loufbourow has heard the argu- ments injunction case of Mrs. Sarah Key vs, the city restraining the latter from filiinfi :f the sidewalk in front of the old Herdic barn on Broadway, but no decision is yet announced. Some of the resideits on First street on Picrce, are grumbling at the way many articles including wood, disappear from their promises, and suspicion has fallen ofi parties living near by who have beeu seen prowling about in the uight. Warrants are talked of, ; John Sullivan, son of the well-known grocer, won the silver medal at St. -Toscph's academy, Friday, Johnnie re- cently returned from Dakota, and hear- ing of the medal, determined to win it if fl:uiblu‘ and two weeks ago entered the ts. He has worked hard and wen it by meri,t. ‘ John Brown was arrested Saturday afternoon for stealing an overcoat from a saloon on Upper Broadway. Ho was tried in'the evening and sentefced to thirty days in jail, On his way there he gave Chief Fiold the slip and ran, but after a lively chaso was overhauled and recaptured, The next purchase of the fire depart- ment will probably be a new hoso wagon instead of & hose cart, and it will proba- bly be stationed on lower Mauin street, when the water works got started, It is claimed that a wagon is better than a cart as it.gives the hose a better chance of keeping dry, and preventing rotting. A man giving his name as McOartney has boed arrested at Oakland, on the charge of stealiog & horse belonging to Jim Pollock. He was leading the horse thro: gh town when arrestod. McCart- ney claims to live about nine miles oast of Oakland, and is to have his examiua- tion before 'Squire Fettor to-morrow, 01d Shep,” the fire dog, is still miss. ing, andi the boys kave about given up all hope'pt recovery, and think he has orawled bff somewhere to die. ‘‘Shep” has been a 7+ ted aud much-loved at. tache of 1. {epartment, catching an alarm quirk s though human, and always running to a fire as eagerly as the men themselves. Miss Jennio Dickson principal of the normal school at Dunlap, was in the city saturday purchasing an organ of Mr, Mueller for use in the chapel. Under the mansgement of Miss Dickson the school has prospered greatly, the atten- increased in a little over a year from five to sixty. Mr, and Mrs, Ira Scofild have been called upon to mourn deeply, their little son Gordbn, aged five years, having died at their home on Grant streot Saturday eveuing, The little fellow had only been sick a few days, and his case was not ever, even at the most. tack of croup was the cause of the fatal illness. The funeral will take place from the residence at 10 o'clock to-day. The beard of trade is to mect this eve- ning to consider important matters. There shonld be much more interest shown in these meetings than has been of late. The business men should get together, exchange ideas, offer snggest jons and unite in strong pulle togother, to make the city prosper. A little boy named Jamen Jolnson, son = | of Chris. Johnson, met with quite a seri ous and well nigh fatal accident near Wightman's brick yard. The littla fel low was playing about a bluff, carrying off dirt in alittle hand eart and digging a little hole in the side of the bluff, when a land-slide suddenly caught him, and he was nearly buried. When rescued it was found that ome leg was badly broken, T. B. Nolson, who was arrested on complaint of Doero, Wells & Co., charg. ing him with embesrling $28 at Blair, Neb., seemod at first disposed to go across the river without a requisition, but now he has decided not to. Tt is predicted that an attempt will be made to-day to et him released on a writ, and in the meantime Depnty Sheriff Clatterbuck has hurried away after the needed requisition. Nelson still remains locked up in jail. Mr. Chandler, the fire alarm man, was heso yestarday, and in company with Chief Templeton looked over the city a little, and took a glance at the excuse for a fire alarm here. He thinks the wires and the batteries are about all that could be used in putting in & system hore, and possibly the post ‘He1any outaa utilied) the poles being tlw‘sxthu too short. Mr Chandler left for Chicago last evening, but propotes interviewing the city au thorities about the fire alarm business. A woman arrived here Saturday night from Omaha in search of her husband, who sho said had skipped out and loft her. Bhe here found that he had gone to Creston and she gt George Edgar to go after him. He found the man and brought him back and turned him over to the woman at the transfer, and the Iatter took him back across the river On meoting him she told him that there was no use in_ his trying to run away from her, and he evidently thought that was s0. The woman is a trapeze per. former by profession, and is evidently able to take care of herself and her hus. band too. Shepherd, the Walnut editor arrested for criminal libel, was probably the worst frightened fellow who ever was brought to this city by and officer. perience evidently, but is likely to get some now. He lacks ex- It meems’probable that he will not got very severely punished, how- It is understood that Mr. Keating will not prosecute and and that Mr. Wells is not disposed to crowd him any harder than is necessary to make him stop his abuse, while as for Mr. Mueller, it is clainied that the latter wrote Shephard a letter telling him to keep on with his abuse, as he considered it pretty good advertising, and his abuse was not worth noticing. This may, in law, take off some of the string of malice on Shepherd’s part. His caso is to be heard next Friday. e ——— COOPERS WANTED, Joseph Ross, on upper Broadway, wants ten good coopers at once. Beauty in Winter, L. A, Casper, the florist and gardener, has been making some great improve- ments, and his place is certainly an inter- esting one to visit, especially at this sea- son of the year. when it scems as if vege- tation elsewhere had gone to sleep for tho winter, He has a now system of radiating pipes, thers being 900 feet put into his four new hot houses. Ho has a 28-horse power boiler, and his hot houses a8 now enlarged and arranged are doubt- less tho finest of any in the state. Sev- enty-five feet above the houses he has a resorvoir, and from this supplies the plants with water, and in fact every needed convenionce seems provided, Tt is like a visit to summer land to visit his houses, where ‘all sorts of vegetablos, lottuce, radishes, etc., are flourishing, and plants and flowers without number. Ho has several century plants, growing finely, and night blooming cereus, one of which will soon bloom, and the readers of Tue Ber will bo duly notified in time to watch its unfolding'if they so desire. Mr. Casper has been here fifteen years, and each yoar he ssoms not only to im. prove his facilities and material sur- roundings, but is more and more firmly ostablishing his reputation as a leader in his line — Go to Kirkland's jowelry store and see that fine English cutlery, Sharp 150ys, A recent suit in Hancock resulted in rather an amusing manner. Two boys recently broke down a fence belonging to a farmer who av oncosued their father, On the trial of the case tho boys were subpwnaed as witneases, but the farmer got beat and the costs woere taxed up to him, The boys then went to the farmer and %ot him to agree to take 81 50 for tho damage they had done. After he had agreed to do so the boys struck a sudden balance on the farmer, They claimed 1 each for witness foes, makin, $2 which the farmer owed them, an deducting the 81,50 left the farmer still in their debt 50 cents, The boys are much pleased at thus gotting a half dol lur for breaking down the fence, and will doubtless develope into great law- yers, Real Ksute Transfors, The following deeds were filed for re- cord in the recorder's office, Novembor 24, reported for the Bes by P, J, Me.

One of Pottawottamic Connty’s Old and Well Known Soldiers Uses a Rope, His Body Found Yesterday Near His Home, Yestorday afternoon tho startling dis- covery was made in Hazel Dell township that Moses Nixon, a well-known citizen and veteran soldier, had hung himself. T'he body was found hanging to a tree on the farm where he has lived for years, and at once the coroner was sent forfrom Commander Lindt of the Abe soveral of this city. Lincoln post, G. A, R., and the comrades, also proceeded to go out with teams. Moses Nixon was a resi- dent ot this county before the war, and in 1862 he enlisted hero as a private in Company A, 20th lowa infantry, under Captain Williams, who is now in the poatoftice here, and in the regiment with which Major Lyman went out. He served well and made a good soldier. At the battle of Helena, July 4, 1863, he lost his right arm, Since the war he has been living here most of the time, he having gone to Oregon for a short while, and then returning settled down to farm- ing. He loaves quite a large family, and has numerous relatives in thls county, besides many friends and acquaintances, who will be saddened at learning of his untimely self-taking of life. e PEKSONAL, Henry Dohrman, of Portsmouth, was at Bechtolo's yesterday.
