P.irnnle theatre Thursday vt-nin.
June 4th, was an event long t.i 1m re-na-inhered
ly I hose w hoenjoy tin high
honor nf gradual ing from the Plat ts
moiitli High s liool. These young peo
.le have arrived at a very interesting
periml in life; and perhas there were
many of those present on this occasion
who could ret-all a simiar rxpericner
as they listened t these exercises,
when, to put it inililly. they thought
ttie ie Mesial on which t hey stood on
that iH-easion. was or much greater
h.ighlh than it has appeared to them
in arter years. What an interesting
sketch it would ! for all such to gie
a narrative of their exerience since
entering upon a pract ieal hiisiness lifeV
If these new graduates have thor
oughly mastered the elementary
branches incident to the puhlie school,
and we have no riht to presume oth
erwise, they are well equipped to take
up some practical work of whatever
nature they may reel so inclined, or to
proceed with higher studies In other
institutes of learning.
The theatre was well tilled with pat
rons of the school and friend of those
who had just graduated.
The exercises was opened w ith class
song, words compised ly Mrs. I,etitia
Ihirton and the music hy Miss Kdna
Lucille Marshall, which was thorough
ly enjoed. Then followed invocation
hv Kev. II. P. Kurtfess, of St.-Luke's
church. The next on pioraniwasa
violin solo, "favatina," hy Miss Mar
garet Warren, which was erfectly
rainl.
Then an important part, the saluta
tory ly Arthur II. Imttoo was well .'iv-
n. and retlected j,'reatcretlit tioii the
younr man. His future career looks
hriifht and will he watched with rreat
interest hy his friends. Following is his

II ml i it ntlt in ii :
It rives me pleasure tosHak to the
people of this city. who. hy your
presence, show an active interest in
our school. No city or village can
thrive unless it has a hhI puhlii-school
system, w here t he you t h can he trained
to know the responsihilit ies and duties
of aciti.en. It seems a temptation
for some eople to put their lvs to
work asson as they tinish their ciht
trrade. liirls as a general rule are
permitted to attend the lli'li scIkhI.
This class may lo taken asanexample
I'arvnts K hot always realize what
harm they are doing their sons hy not
allowing them to attend the High
school. It is true that some of the
studies appear to U of no value in
practical life, hut we must not judge
from appearances. Can a young man
or woman lecoine a clear thinker or a
good conversationalist unless he or she
has teen given the opportunity of
studying these different branches? In
tins period of life a person must have
a good general education. That is, he
must know something of that which
lie is sure to meet with in life. No
man can lie a god citizen unless he
knows something of history and civics.
As long as we live under a Kcpuhlican
form of government. I think that
every one of us ought to know much of
the underlying principles governing a
Ke pun lie. Not only is it profitable to
know what Is lieing done tv man. but
we must also observe the pheuomina
of nature and discover her laws, if
possible. The different branches of
science, as they are hrouuht he fore us
in our lli'h school, teach ustoohscrvc
and note every thing that is around
us. Mathematics, w hich isconsidered
hy many the most important study,
eicept that of reading and writing, is
taught with treat care and receives its
full share of time. The study or
literature isof vital importance. The
career of young people often depends
on the class of tiooks and magazines
that they read. It seems tome that
after we have studied the works of
Longfellow, Tennyson, Shakespeare,
and many othersof like fame, we would
not care to read the cheap yellow
back novels. The success of the pupil
often depends upon the interest that
isskhown hy the parents in school work.
Many people think that the teacher
only, Is responsible for the success of
a pupil. We all know, of course, that it
is the teacher's duty to Interest the
scholar as much ns Nissihle in the
work that he is doing. Kut how can
it lie e x-eted t hat a pupil should take
an active interest in that for which
his parents evident ly care not liing? 1 1
seems to me that every man and
woman in I'lat tsmoiith ought to con
sider it. their duty to visit the school
at least once in each semester. The
interest that has been shown in our
High school i In t oi icals has heen aj
preciated very much hy I he superinten
dent and instructors, as well as the
pupils. These exercises, however, are
only one port ion of our work. The
school proHr is iiite different, hut
no less interesting, and I think that, if
you will visit the I i u 1 1 school more
frequently, you will see of what value
it will In- to your sons and daughters.
We are of our new High
school ding. It is roomy and
comfortable, and the sealing capacity
will le ample for many years. Ilecause
of the fact that so many pupils are
sit ting alone, the impression isgiven to
many visitors that t he attendance is
not as la rye as it should lie. In Fre
mont the High school enrollment is
about eight per cent of the total, and
in Hastings it is alxNitnine percent.
Ten iH-r cent of the pupils of (Jrand
Island are in the High school, while
the records of Nehrask City show alxnit
eleven per cent. Now in looking over
the reHrts of our school, it was noted
t hat about tifteen per cent of t he en
rolled pupils of this city were in the
High school. I think that we all may
lie proud of this fact.
To-night will Im rememlxred by
twenty girls and live I joys as one of
the most important evenings of their
lives. This may seem a broad state
ment to some of you, but if you stop
to consider that out of the number of
pupils that enter the freshman class
only thirty or thirty-live per cent
graduate, and from this number only
twenty jier cent enter college, you will
realize, that for most of us, the event
is significant.
In conclusion, 1 w ill again ask you to
visit our sch ols. May we as citizens,
make the coming year the most
enthusiastic and licniticial one that the
school has ever know n.
IJeinemtjer, that the man of to
morrow is dependent on the school of
todav, and if you wish your sons and
daughters to become prominent in
future years, you must see that they
are well schooled.

Tonight marks the close or another
scholastic year, and of our school life
in your midst. Once more there is
ushered 'out of our High school a class,
every inemU-r of which is about to
commence an individual career. With
our natural powers strengthed and de
veloped by the careful traiuingof faith
ful teachers, we now step forth across
f the threshold out into the world, wel-
coming what the future has in store
for us and ready totakeour part in the
great drama of life. What our career
w ill Ik' deH-nds solely upon ourselves,
for t he molding of our future lives is
left in our own hands.
tJentlemen of the Hoard of Educa
tion. I assure you of our gratitude, for
through you, individually and as rep
resentatives of the public, it has been
made iossi hie for us lobe here tonight.
Through your generosity and judicious
management we have this excellent
1 1 igh school, passing through which we
are here, a representative product of
the same.
Honorable Faculty, in behalf of the
class of l'.:, I now offer to you our
sincere and heartfelt thanks" for the
deep interest you have always taken in
our welfare and for - the patience you
have hat with our failings and short
comings, for your untiring efforts, in
aiding us to surmount the obstacles
that lay in our path, so that at last we
might grasp those great truths and
principles of education, that are so es
sential to a successful and honorable
career. ( )ur associat ion with you as well
as your illustrations has taught us
that the person who can enjoy converse
with the great minds of the past and
present In art science and literature,
has a happiness w hich cannot be de
stoyed hy the accident of wealth; that
the gauge by which to measure success,
is not physical, but moral and mental
satisfaction. You have intilled into
our minds the fact that a pure, sterl
ing character is the foundation upon
which we must build, that it is our
character by which the world judges
us. and which w ill ever be our capital
stock: for all of which we again offer
to you our sincere thanks, with the
font hope that we may adhere to your
teachings throughout life.
Class of l.io:, the hour for parting as
a class is now here. For many years
we have labored ui our class rooms,
side by side in unison. Tomorrow we
shall wend our way whereverduty may
call us as individuals, a class no longer.
The years we have spent in our, efforts
to acquire knowledge have been con
tented ami enjoyable ones, and memory
will always cherish and treasure them.
And now as to the future its oppor
tunities.
The foundation upon which our fore
fathers constructed their enterprises.
are solid and unshakable. They did
not build for themselves alone, but for
I their posterity; on these foundations

or gotjd, honest laljor we can build any
thing we please, make them our cor
ner stone, and our whole superstruc
ture will Ije a monument to their wis
dom and our efforts, for as we look
alKjut us ant see that the tendency is
to larger enterprises, more highly de
veloped organization creating greater
demand for the intelligent, lalmrer. we
may Ijc sure there is a place for each
one of us to prove himself: no time has
ever equalled this in opportunities of
fered intelligent and active young men
and women.
Specialization-centralization are the
order of the day, ami the qualities most
in demand are executive qualities. It
is an age of great undertakings. The
man w ho succeeds best is he who cannot
only work efliciently himself, but can
show others how to work. The men
who have made their way to the top
and accumulated fortunes by the time
they are forty are no longer rare; but
when they have reached a place of suf
ficient importance to warrant a biog
raphy, and the biography is w ritten in
almost every case it appears that two
things are true of them: They per
formed t he lit t le tasks of their early
experience thoroughly and intelligent
ly, and they were always on the look
out for larger things to do.
To reap the harvest we must be en
ergetic: we must persevere; we must
concent rate our efforts Hy each striv
ing to get ahead, all make progress.
Those who will work and persist, who,
when they have set theirambit ions on
the coveted goal, will never falter or
turn aside until they reach it, whom
every defeat spurs on to greater efforts
to overcome the opposing forces, so that
they might ever follow the glittering
Star of l'rogress in tlie distant hor.nn.
Such men and women the world needs
to unravel its mysteries, and such will)
succeed. This in part Is the future
the world holds out to us: hence let us
strive to reach the very pinacle of that
future.
And now, I bid you all farewell as a
class, and as the years roll by, may the
class of 1!M). prove a worthy monument
to the efforts of our instructors, our
parents and to our l'lattsmouth.
"Tantalus" was the subject of the
address of the evening, and given by
Kev. II. (). Rowlands, of Lincoln. It
was a masterly effort, and isconsidered
one of the tinest lectures ever de
livered in l'lattsmouth. The closest
attention of the class was not only giv
en, but the entire audience was capti
vated hy his eloquence. The earnest
words of encouragement uttered by Dr.
How-lands will remain fresh in the
memory of the class of 1;h)S for many
years to follow.
A vocal solo, "fIod Night, Beloved,
(.mxk! Night,'' by Miss Edna Lucille
Marshall was sang in the mrjst charm
ing manner.
Hon. (Jeorge M. Spurlock presented
the diplomas, prefacing the same in a
few wellch sen remarks, and delivered
in his usual happy manner.
Then followed theltenerliclion, after
which a formal reception was held, at
which many ttiok occasion to tender
congratulations to the graduates.
Superintendent House and a majori
ty of the High school teachers deserve
great credit for their efforts in making
the commencement exercises a grand
success in every particular. Ana we
must not forget to also add that they
were ably assisted in making it so by
the seniors.
Miss Helen Waugh enjoys the dis
tinction of having the highest average
scholarship in her work during the four
years II igh school course. This honor
entitles her to a full scholarship in
Doane, Hellevue or Hastings college or
either the Wesleyan or Cotner Univer
sity. Miss Jesse Harton was the next
highest in class w hich entitles her to a
scholarship nood for one year in Cotner
University.
The decorations were very attractive
and the graduates were the recipients
of many handsome and valuabe pres
ents from their friends.
In conclusion, the Journal entends
congratulations to each and every one
of the graduates, and
May your patbs lie strewn with rtses.
W'ltli never a prloklv thorn;
With nil nf joy to gladden.
And naught to make thee mourn.
Exercises at the High School.
The closing exercises at the High
school building consisted of a program
that deserves more than a passing no
tice, as it was very interesting through
out. The large number of parents and
the membersof the boari of education
who were present were highly delight
ed with the entertainment they wit
nessed. Those who took part in the
exercises represented the various de
partments from first to the eigth grade
inclusive.
The opening chorus by the pupils, en
titled "Jolly Students," was followed
with piano solos by Misses Charlotte
Fctz.crand Marie Hookmyer and Mr.
Carl Khinger, and were well rendered,
as well as the vocal solo by Milford
Hates and the violin solo by Clarence
White. The monologue, "I'se a Nig
ger Ila by," by Harhara Clements, was
excellent, and created considerable
merriment among the little folks, and
was highly enjoyed by the older ones
present, also.
Among the most amusing features of
the occasion, ami csecially to the boys
and girls, was the Tom Thumb Wed
ding. The part of groom wasjtaken by
Master Clyde Murphy, while Miss
Cathrine Dovcy, in the part of the
bride, and a charming little bride she
made, to, was well taken. The guests,
bridesmaids, -flower girls and groom's
attendants, were carried out to per
fection, even to the Wedding March,
played by Miss Louise Smith. The
part of cergyman, in his long white
rolje, was assumed by Master Phillip
House, and that he acted the part
well, expresses it very mildly. After
the ceremony, congratulations, etc.,
the wedding party marched from the
room to the rag-time music of a "Hot
Time in the Old Town."
"The Hrownies' Flirtation," by
grades one and two, was grand, and the
cane drill by the higher grades, was re
markably well executed, and was very
creditable to those who took part.
"Mrs. Wiggsof the CabUige Patch,"
was presented in live acts. It was dram
atized for this especial occasion by Miss
es Heisel, Farley andClark. The parts
were all well arranged, as well as rep
represented. Miss Jean Morrissey, in
the character of Mrs. Wiggs, was ex
ceedingly well played indeed, as was also
Hilly Wiggs, the part assumed by Char
lie Kirschenbaldt. In fact each char
acter deserves special mention, but the
cast of characters being so lengthy we
are unable to so in this brief mention:
sutlice to say, they all displayed excel
lent talent in this direction, and as a
whole "Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage
Patch" was played
Following is the cast:

Old Land MarK to be Remodeled.
The old stone building on the coiner
of Seventh and Pearl streets, owned
by F. M. Ilichey and used by him as an
office, is being remodeled. Workmen
are engaged in tilling up the yard and
tearing down the structure, which
was originally three stories, and when
remodled it will be but one story.
This is perhaps one of the oldest
houses in Plattsmouth, having been
erected in 1858, by a man by the name
os Harr. The improvements that Mr.
Rlchey is making will add to the ap
pearance of that vicinity.
A Close Call.
While engaged in harnessing a team
belonging to a farmer, last Saturday
evening, J. w. sage, the liveryman,
kicked in the chest by one of the
horses, both hind feet striking him
with a full swing, landing Mr. Sage
about ten feet away. He was semi-
unconscious for some time, but as soon
as he revived, and upon examination,
it was discovered that no Ijoiics were
broken. The force of the blow just
lielow the heart, was perhaps the
cause of the insensibility. It was a
close call for Mr. Sage.

Jn the tirst opening of Oklahoma to
settlers in 1S89, the editor of this paper
was among the many seekers after
fortune who made the hig race one
fine day in April. During his travel
ing about and afterwards his camping
upon hisclaim, lie encountered much
bad water, which, together with the
severe heat, gave mm a very severe
diarrhoea which it seemed almost im
possible to check, and along in June
the case become so bad he expected to
die. One day one of his neighbors
brought him one small bottle of
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy as a last hope. A big
dose was given him while lie was roll
ing about on the ground in great agony,
and in a few minutes the dose was
repeated. The good effect of the
medicine was soon noticed and within
an hour the patient was taking his
first sound sleep for a fortnight. That

Off For Vacation.
Miss Grace Montgomery and Miss
Eleanor Wirt teachers in the schools
of this city, departed Saturday morn
ing for Council Bluffs, the latter's
home, where they will spend several
weeks of their vacation. Miss Sprung
left for her home in Lincoln nday
night, while Miss Powell went to her
hoem in Corydon, Kentucky, called
there by the serious illness of her
father. She endoavored to get these
a day or two before but was unable to
start on account of the condition of
the various railroads she would have
to pass over.
A Worthy Compliment.
At the annual meeting of the
Masonic grand lodge of Nebraska in
Omaha last week. Mr. Frank E. White
of this city was re-elected unanimously
to the position of grand secretary, a
position he has so efliciently filled for a
number of years. The otlice of grand
secretary is one that needs the services
of a gentleman of undoubted qualifica
tions and integrity. Mr. White has
done his work so well that this order
does not seem to desire to make a
change, and says: Keep on thou gocjd
and faithful servant.
The Council Did the Proper Thing.
For the past two weeks or more,
night policeman, Johnnie Fitzpatrick
has been confined to his room at the
Perkins with a serious illnes, and of
course unable to perform his duties.
In the allowance of otlicial salaries for
the past month by the city council
Monday night, the question arose as to
whether they should allow Johnnie for
the time he has been ill and off duty.
In view of the fact that he has so effi
ciently and faithfully served the city
in the past, the council unanimously
voted to allow him the full month's
salary, which action upon the part of
the council will receive the sanction of
all the citizens of Plattsmouth, or at
least it ought to.

To Cure a Cold in One Bay
A Sensible Idea.
Already thus early in t he season ap
pears t he all toocommon item in the lo
cal papers that Farmer Jones had one
or more good steers killed by lightning
in the pasture near the wire fence.
This loss may be largely prevented by
simply grounding the wires in the wire
fence every eighty rodds or so.
It can be done in this manner: Get a
live eighths iron hk! and drive it into
the grouud to a depth of three or four
feet, pull it out and then takcastrand
of heavy fence wire and put down the
holes so made and tamp it down. A
smart hand could easily fix all the fen
ces on a quarter section farm in a day
in the manner indicated and it will
pay to do it.
The UnRindest Cut of All.
It is reported that the G. A. Ii. re
union will be held at Springfield in
stead of at Louisville. The reason for
the change is said to be that the t hree
saloons had subscribed fT.j each to the
fund and when the town voted them
out of business they refused to pay.
Springfield has saloons so we presume
the money there will come from them.
Thank goodness our town can raise
fcluO without the aid or consent of
saloon keepers. Weeping Water lie
publican. If this is not the "unkindest cut of
all," we don't know what you would
call it. It is preposterous to even
think of the reunion going away from
Louisville on this account. The mer
chants of Louisville are perhaps as able
and also as willing to give of their
means for an occasion of this kind as
Weeping Water, or, in fact, as any
other town in the county, and simply
because the saloon men, (who have
gone out of business since the money
was subscribed) refuse now to pay
what they intended, is ridiculous to
say the least. We do not believe that
will cut any figure whatever. Hut
some papers are so predjucied that if
they can't say anything good for their
neighbors, seem to be on the lookou
t constantly for something upon which
to cast the most odius reflections.
Death of Gustave WecKbach.
Gustavo Week bach died at his home
in Omaha, Tuesday morning, June U,
1003. His brother Henry, of this cityt
was apprised of this fact as soon as his
death ccurred, and Mr. and Mrs.
Weckbach took the first train after re
ceiving the sad inlligence for thatcity.
The deceased had been ill for nearly
two months, being afflicted with what
physicians term gall stones. M r. Weck
bach was a resident of l'lattsmouth for
a number of years, and will be remem-

this city and Cass county. Of late
years he has been a prominent busi

Driven to Desperation.
Living at an out of the way place,
remote from civilation, a family is

The Deaf Hear Again.
Dr. Hutchinson of New York City
made an interesting and at the same
time a very important experiment
with his new invention by which deaf
people could hear distinctly. A song
of Mrs. Sembrich, the great opera
singer brought them to ectasy. New
hope entered their hearts, the hope of
regaining the hearing, a new example
that we should never abandon
hope. There are so many instances
where people despaired of ever gei ting
well again, but Triner's American
Elixir of Hit ter Wine returned them
their former health. A better remedy
for the stomach than this nature's
remedy cannot be prepared; you can
not make things better than nature
has made them. J5eing made of un
adulterated grape wine and selected
herbs. It strengthens, cleans and
regulates the stomach enabling this
organ to perform its duties. The
digestion will Ijecome easy and new
bloods w ill be formed, which will again
make the mind clear, the brain active:
the nerves strong, the muscles linn.
