ttio.o had been broken into at an
onriy hour this morning, sorno cloth-
imr and other cooda stolen, and that
the thlovos had probnbly cronbod the
bridge and come to thin ciy. The
ofticcrB did not learn the exioLt of the
robbery, but it will probnbly amount
to $200 or $300. Chief Fitzpatrick,
Deputy McHride and Constable Den-
son wont to tho li. & M. yards this
morning and found six trumps around
a cttmpflio north of tho depot who had
come from tho Junction but a few
hours boforo. They wore hard look
ers and tho officers tupiciotied they
were the partita wanted, but for luck
of evidence did not hold thorn. The
mjn were . cirofully searched, but
nothing found about their poisons or
surroundings which would warrant
thu ofiicnis in detaining ttu-m. No
clue has been obtained of tho robbers.
The Conclusion.
The revival meeting's at the Christian
church closed last night with a full
bouse, much interest and three ao
cessions to the church. The evangel
ists Limon and Travis have been with
us five weeks and as a result of their
earnest and efficient labors, seventy-
five members hve been added to the
church and tho interests have been
thoroughly revived. The members of
the church aro greatly encouraged
over tha successful meeting, and the
work of the evangelists is highly
BDoken of bv everyone. We wlsn to
publicly acknowledge our indebted-
to the press of the city for their gen-
erous assistance in the way of announ
cements, etc. during our meeting. Mr.
Lemon said in a private con versation
that, " he had never been treated bet
ter by newspaper men in his fifteen
years experience as an ev..ngelist,
than at Plattsmouth." Regular ser

New Koute to Kansas City.
It will not be long before the trains
of the Kansas City, Pit tsburg & Gulf
road will bo running from Omaha to
Kansas City, Mo., via Pattonsburg.
Harry E. Moores, city passenger and
ticket agent, has just been supplied
with a supply of tickets reading from
Omaha to Kansas City. The fact that
no bridge ticket is required with these
for use between Omaha and Council I
Bluffs is believed to be indicative of I
the purpose of the Port Arthur people
to run their trains through to Omaha
and not stop them at Council Bluffs,
as at present is the custom. It ia taken
for granted that for the present at
least the trains of the new road will
cross the Union Pacific bridge and en
ter the Union depot at Tenth and
Mason streets. Bee.

Happening.
Samuel McConkev was found dead
ia hifl lied Suridy morning at tho
homo of bis son on Chicago avenve.
Ho was in his eighty-second year and
death doubtless resulted from heart
failure. Hie old gentleman had been
enjoying good health and was usu
illy spry for one of his age. Ho was
about town Saturday greeting hi
friends aid visiting his customary
haunts. Saturday night about 11
o'clock ho called his uaughtcr-in-law
to his bedside and askeu her what
made everything so light and ch- or
ful about the room. He thought the
moon shone unusually bright and he
seemed to see myriads of bright stars
about him. She asked him if he was
sieic or felt any pain and tho old gen
tleman replied that he felt as well as
he ever did. The daughter pulled
down the window blind to shut out
whatever light might b shining in at
the windows and left grandpa to rest
is peacefully as he could. Sunday
morning when a member of the family
went to cull him to breakfast it was
discovered that he was dead and his
body cold indie 'ting that ho had b( on
dead several hours. He lay upon his
back, the right hand lying by his side
and tho left hand pressed against the
left cheek. The indications were that
he had sank peacefully to rest and in
his last moments suffered no pain or
pangs of death. He had lived an up
right conscientious life and was ready
for the summons.
Mr. McCcnkcy has been a resident
of Plattsmouth for manv years and
many friends and admiieis sincerely
mourn his demise. The funeral
occurs tomorrow at n o ciock irom

George K. Staats, the laundryman

and feels very mueh as if it had come
in close contact with tho business
end of a mule. Last Saturday
night, woile on his way home, he
stumbled and fell upon the sidewalk
on Seventh street, cutting a bad gash
hn his scalp just over his right eye
For several minutes ho lay on the
walk in an unconscious condition
WThen he came to ho managed to find
his way home, the blood streaming
from his wound, and he looked verj-
much as though he had been engaged
in a bloody conflict. A physician was
called, who took several stitches in the
scalp, and Mr. Staats is attending to
his business today, with a very sore
head.

Dt-Kt-rlptloii of a Trip to the Pacific Coast
Hy a Former Plattsmoathlaii
Seattle, Mur. ft, l.SO.S. Wo loft
Plattsmouth, February iM, at 2:22 and
passed through a line farming country
as far west as ICcarnoy; after that wo
found a country without corn, wood or
hay nothing to soo but sago brush
from four to six inches high and good
for nothing. I can't see what that
country is good for, unless it woulJ bo
to raise prairie dogs, or build
railroads on. Tho Wyoming country
is nothing but red sand and gravel and
rock. There was not a chicken, a hog
or a cow in sight through tho whole
state. Saw a few shcop ar.d poniej.
There is some beautiful nee 11 cry thro'
tho blue mountains. The valley be
tween tho Blue and Cascade mountains
is nice, but it will luvo to bo watered
before crop can bo grown. There Is
nothing there now but sago brush.
Near tho east side of the Caseado
mountains there aro a few farms and
some email towns, but it is not the sort
of a country I want to live in. In fact
I haven't seen any country since I left
Nebraska that I am stuck on.
Portland, Oregon, is a nice city, of
abont S,000 to 4,000, and is overdone in
every lino of business. There is beau
liful scenery along tho road between
Portland and Seattle about 180 miles
with i town every four to rix miles
and almost every town has a sawmill
and lots of lumber, which sells from
iU to $10 per thousand, and pine and
cedar timb jr till you can't rest. I am
sure I saw timber that, if it had been
cut into cord wood, it could not bo
ricked on the same ground it was cut
from.
I believe that lhere can bo more po
tatoos, cabbage, onions, celery, turi-ips
beets in fact every kind of garden
stuff grown on one acre in Washington
than on eight acres in Nebraska. It
is pull and plant at the same time one
continuous reaping and sowing. I saw
men putting out cabbage plants, and
in the same girden cutting full grown
cabbage heads. It's a mistake about
wheat being k nee high in February,
for spring wheat is only being town
now, and fall wheat is only two to four
inches high, and grass about the same
Wild ffowers are blooming, while an
inch of snow fell this morning. It
looked nico among the flowers. By 8
o'clock the ground was bare, tho air
warm and th? sun shining.
Tell Andy Hawrick I Haven't been
robbed yet.
A one-acre tract is all one man needs
here it will keep him at pulling and
planting. A ton-acre farm is a large
one here.
Seattle is in the mountains higher
hills in the city than there are in Ne
braska, except King hill. It is a city
of 60,000. Everybody looks healthy.
I have Been but one cemetery and it was
a small one. Seattle is fuli of Klon-
dikers, and has more business in one
day than Plattsmouth has in a year.
Mrs. Herold was right when
she said there were some stumps in
this city there are, and very big ones,
I find that the Lord is as precious
here as there. I was at S. S. and

small, preaching good, I pray that
God will bless and save every one that

A New Landlord.
Joe Opelt, who was in the city yes
terday, completed the arrangement
whereby he will assume control of the
Hotel Kilev es its landlord. As was
stated in yesterday's issue, Mr. Opelt
is known throughout the state and up
and down the Missouri valley as a ho
tel man of the first class, and his com
ing to the Riley is a matter of con
gratulation for 1'lattsmouth. Joe will
take possession of the hotel in a few
days, and the lti'.ey will be more than
kept up to its former high standard of
excellence.
JJovey's Prices.
Doveys have been in business here
for more than a quarter of a century
and never have they sold shoddy or
inferior goods in all these years. The
prices they quote in the big ad in this
paper may seem like they are too low
for tho class of goods they carry, but
they are the result of close buying and
a determination to sell more goods at
c'oser margains. It will pay you to
read their ad and inspect their goods.
