On the third day of January, 1!).,
Henry C. Stohlman rented his land to
Ids brother, August, and left for the
Grand Island Business College, at
Grand Island, Neb., where he had
taken up a one year's course in lxok
keeping and stenography as his main
studies. At t lie end of .six months'
study the professor of the school grant
ed him a position, through vacation,
at the Ellsworth green house at Grand
Island. From there lie was on Ids way
home for a visit with his mother, sis
ters and brothers, stopping over a few
days at Ilavelock, where he was taken
suddenly ill with typhoid fever, lie
sent a message at once to his mother
that he was sick and was coming home.
In a few hours later a message wassent
by hisdoctor that his temperature was
10", and that he had taken Henry to
the hospital and was not able to be
taken home. So his mother and sis
ter, Amelia, and brother August, were
soon at his bedside. After consulting
with Dr. Williams of Ilavelock, Dr.
Stevens and Dr. Kverett of Lincoln,
little hopes of his recovery was given.
His mother and his sister stayed by
his bedside. The last week of his ill
ness, and on the loth of September, as
Henry felt that he was not getting any
better, lie had a message sent to his
minister, Rev. G. Jung, that he had a
longing for the holy communion and
to prepare himself to meet God, which
was granted him by his pastor. At
the age or fourteen years Henry took
his confirmation of Rev. G. Jung as a
member of the Evangelical Lutheran
church of Louisville, Neb., which he
kept until death, and in the last few
hours of his life his head was boweci
in prayers to his God for a home in
heaven.
Henry C. Stohlman was the young
est of the family of Frederick P. Stohl

ters, Mrs. II. Kupke and Miss Amelia
A. Stohlman, and a number of little
nieces and nephews, to mourn the
death of our loved one the one we
loved so dearly. The funeral was held
September 1H, at 2 o'clock p. m., at the

FATHER MULCONRYjIS DEAD
He Dies From Bright's Disease at St.
Joseph's Hospital in Chicago.
A GOOD MAN 60NE TO HIS LONG REST
The Deceased Made Many Friends During
His Brief Stay in Plattsmouth.
Father Mulconry, the Jesuit priest,
who, in conjunction with Father Liv
ingstone, opened the mission recently
in St. John's church, died in St. Jos
eph's hospital, Chicago,- on Friday
morning last, of Brignt's disease. The
zealous priest, although even then in
the grip of his last fatal illness, opened
the mission with all his usual vigor
and earnestness, and up to Sunday
evening by what must have been an
almost superhuman effort, bore his
share in the labors of tbe undertaking.
On Sunday evening he was taken sud
denly and seriously ill and the end was
probably averted for the time solely by
the skill of the Drs. Livingstone, who
were immediately called in.
On Wednesday he left for St. Jos
eph's hospital, Chicago, in company of
Dr. T. P. Livingstone, and some slight
hopes of his recovery were entertained,
but these proved fallacious and he
passed away on Friday morning.
His death is a great loss to the So
ciety of Jesus, of which he was for
many years an ornament, and to the
cause of religion throughout the coun
try. A solemn high mass of requiem was
sung for the repose of his soul this
morning in St. John's church, Father
Ilennessy of Manley being celebrant
Father Bradley of St. John's church
deacon, and Father Feeney of Auburn
sub-deacon. The mass was well attend
ed by members of the congregations of
St. John's and fhe Holy Rasary
churches.
Firemen Badly Needed.
An official of the Burlington declares
that the road has imperative use for a
number of husky, sober young fellows
between the ages of 21 and 26, and if
they apply soon and pass a proper
physical examination they will not
have to serve as wipers from a year
and a half to two years, as is the ordi
nary custom, but will be placed right
on a locomotive at once and begin to
draw firemen's pay for the first year
of service.

MORE DASTARDLY
DEPREDATIONS
Some Means Must be Adopted to
Stop
Such Work.
Some time Saturday night or Sun
day morning parties broke a front
glass in Fa tiger's store or rather the
glass was already cracked, and who
ever the depredators were finished
the job by pushing it in. By this
means they made a hole large enough
to poke one's hand and arm through.
There are several missing articles that
were in the window, including a coat,
pair of pants and a number of pairs of
socks. There seems to be no clue yet
as to who did the deed.
Some time between the hours of 10
o'clock Saturday night and this morn
ing, the collar show case in front of
Wescott & Son's store was removed
and taken away. No one knows just
when, as it was not missed until opening-uptime
this morning. The case
was fastened to the casing of the win
dows with screws and contained a
number of sample collars. It is very
strange that a person would attempt
such a deed for a few collars. It has
the appearance of acaseof purecussed
ness and nothing more.
Such depredations are becoming too
numerous here t f late and some move
ment will have to be inaugurated to
stop them before something more se
rious is committed.
THE ALIMONY QUESTION
Supreme Court Holds That Woman Seeking
Separate Maintenance Can't Have It.
In the case of Chapman vs. Chap
man from Cedar county, says the Lin
coln News, the supreme court has held
that a woman seeking separate main
tenance cannot have a divorce for a
lump sum, but must content herself
with a regular allowance according to
the condition of the nusband. It is
held that the separate estate cannot
be created out of the husband's prop
erty without his consent. The parties
to the suit are both well known, so
cially, in northern Nebraska. Chap
man is alleged to te wealthy. The
wife secured an allowance of $10,000,
and a decree of separate maintenance
on the ground of abandonment and
non-support.
This is a case in which an attempt
was made by the husband to plead a
North Dakota divorce against the
wife's suit. The Nebraskacourt avoids
anv ruling on the subject, from the
fact that the judgment record of Cass j
county, N. P., where the decree was
granted, was not properly authenticat
ed. This left the alleged prior divorce
out of question. The wife, in the dis
trict court, has questioned the valid
ity of the North Dakota divorce on
the ground that it had been secured
without her notice or appearance in
the case. This decree was granted in
1894.
The court lays down the rule govern
ing such cases as follows:
"In case of the separation of the
husband and wife, it is incumbent
upon the spouse first repudiating the
marital obligations to establish free
dom fiom fault and justification or
excuse for such conduct."
With reference to the creation of a
separate estate for the wife out of the
property of the husband, the court
says that it "cannot create a separate
estate without his consent and such
act would have a tendency to dis
courage the resumption of marital re
lations which it is in the interest of
good morals and public policy to pro
mote." For Sale.

DEMOCRATIC COUHTYTICKET
The Journal Points With Pride to the Men
Who Compose It.
ALL REPRESENTATIVE MEN OF CASS
If the Voters Are Looking for Qualifica
tions They Will Find It in Every
Instance.
It can be truthfully said that in the
nomination of candidates for the var
ious county offices by the democrats of
Cass county, that in every instance
but one the office has sought the man.
There were no schemes or slates pre
pared, nor wire pulling after the man
ner of crafty and designing politicians,
and all nominations were made in a
spirit of absolute harmony. The per
sonal fitness of each nominee was con
sidered und discussed, and the result
has been a ticket of qualified and good
men for each position and a personnel
of strength. It is a ticket of winning
candidates, and the voters and taxpay
ers of the county will, in the exercise
of that independence which has in
years past characterized their judg
ment, make no mistake in the electing
of the entire ticket. Following is brief
mention of each candidate:
William D. Wheeler.
The present incumbent of the county
t reasurer's office is too well known to
the people of Cass county to require
any encomium on the part of the Jour
nal in his behalf, nor urgency of the
people as to the advisability and cor
rectness of electing him to succeed
himself for another term. It is a truth
which goes without saying that in Cass
county, at least, wiiere an officer has
conducted his office for one term in a
creditable and efficient manner that
he should be returned, and the Jour
nal ventures no prophecy in saying
that the people will show their good
judgment in re-electing him. Mr.
Wheeler lias, by his strict devotion to
the best interests of the voters and
taxpayersof the county during his first
term, earned their friendship to that
extent that they will unite to do him
further honor. Billy Wheeler is wor
thy of it.
W. E. Rosencrans.
"For county clerk it is admitted, even
among political opponents, to be a
strong nomination, and his general
personality is sufficient to carry out
their belief in this direction. Mr.
Rosencrans resides at Elmwood, where
he has resided for many years, and
where every man, woman and child is
his friend. lie is already fairly well
acquainted with the voters of Cass
county, having made the race for com
missioner one year ago, and the people
who met him in that campaign were
highly impressed with his general de
portment, and especially his genial,
good natured qualities, and wherever
he went he made many friends. But
beyond this fact, he is well qualified
in every way to perform the duties of
tbe office. He is a successful business
man, and will till the office of county
clerk with credit to himself and the
people of the county in general. A
more genial and courteous nature is
rarely to be- met with, ad it- is just4
this kind of a man the people desire to
do business with. "Rosy" is just the
man for county clerk.
Hon. Harvey D. Travis,
the democratic nominee for county
judge, needs but very little attention
through the Journal. He has resided
in Cass county for many years. His
record for the past two years in official
life is the best recommendation that
can be written in his favor. His ad
ministration is marked by "ability and
utmost fairness. His painstaking care
in probate matters is an essential part
of his record that he should be proud
of. It is unhesitatingly assumed by
those who have had business in his
court that he is remarkably well fitted
for the position he occupies, and that
he should be re-elected. The system
Judge Travis has inaugurated in con
ducting the affairs of his office is very
popular with all. His legal qualities
are undisputed, and his dignified man
ners on the bench are such as to make
his court appear more in the order of
district, rather than county court. If
Judge Travis is not re-elected we be
lieve the voters of the county will
make the grandest mistake of their
lives.
John D. McBride,
who has already served two terms as
sheriff, has performed the duties of
that office in such a manner as to give
almost universal satisfaction. He has
performed the duties of sheriff in a
business-like manner, and the extent
of the great satisfaction given can best
be determined when his party gave a
renomination for the third term unan
imously. Mr. McBride is most highly
respected by his wide circle of ac
quaintances, and esteemed for his effi
ciency, liberal views and sterling qual
ities. He has been faithful in the dis
charge of his duties, and his re-election
will prove that the people of Cass
county appreciate a good officer. His
nature is of that frank, free and fear
less character which bears the stamp
of a true man and clever gentleman.
Clifton S. Wortman.
candidate for superintendent of schools
is another applicant for public favor
that needs no praise from the Journal.
He was born and reared in Cass county,
and was educated in the schools of his
county and state. HU qualifications
for the office can best be determined
by his record in office. It is the com
mon remark by those who are interest
ed in the public schools of the county,
that he has discharged the duties of
the office in such an efficient and faith
ful manner as to win the approval of
all. He has unquestionably made the
best official in this particular position
that Cass county has ever possessed.
His life has been clean, four-square, a
delight to his friends, and his liberal,
broad-minded nature appeals to all the
best there is in every man and woman.
He holds a life state certificate, an ar
ticle possessed by but few teachers in
the entire state. His ability is un
questioned, as his record in office fally
testifies. The people of Cass county
should regard it as a strict duty to re
elect Prof. Wortman, in order to con
tinue in maintaining the efficiency and
progress of the present excellent sys
tems of our public schools.
W. O. Schewe.
who was nominated at Elmwood for
register of deeds, is a young German
citizen, born and reared In Casscouuty.
Mr. Schewe is a young man in every
way qualified for the office, and if
elected will till the office to the entire
satisfaction of all who have business to
transact. He was reared on the farm
of his father near Murdock, where he
received a common school education.
While his father is a full-fledged Ger
man, the young man speaks both Ger
man and English fluently. He is one
of the nicest young men in the county,
and if a register of deeds is to be elect
ed in November, which is a question
in the minds of many, he will make an
excellent county official.
E. B. Craig.
Two years ago Mr. Craig was the
nominee of the democrats for coroner,
but was defeated. His vote at home
showed in what esteem he is held by
those who know him best. He carried
Salt Creek, the precinct in which
Greenwood is situated, almost unani
mously. Mr. Craig is one.of the best
citizens in Cass county, and his qualifi
cations for the office are unquestioned.
He stands a much better show of suc
cess this year than he did two years
ago, as his support in the city of Platts
mouth will be much greater, where we
had a home candidate before.
A. Baxter Smith
of this city was nominated for surveyor
against his protest. Mr. Smith is not
an office seeker, but if the people elect
him he will fill the position, and till it
to the satisfaction of all. He has done
a great deal of surveying, in fact he is
a practical man in that business. Mr.
Smith is one of our best citizens, and
if he would go out and ask for the sup
port of the people, the gentleman who
has occupied that positson so long
would have to take a back seat after
January, 1.0(.
John P. Thacker
of Liberty precinct, who was nomin
ated for county commissioner, is one
of the best men in Cass county. He
comes from a section of the district
that should by all means be represent
ed on the board. One of the present
members of the board comes from
Weeping Water, white the republican
candidate for tbe position resides
within three miles of the present com
missioner making in case of his elec
tion two commissioners within a dis
tance of three miles of each other. For
this reason alone Mr. Thacker should
be elected. Besides Mr. Thacker is a
gentleman, a scholar, and knows the
desires of the taxpayers of the connty
as well as any man within its limits.
There are no better men than John P.
Thacker. Please remember this as
you go along.
Don't Be a Kicker.
There are more faultfinders around
every community than hairs on a dog's
back, and more garbagers than shingles
upon the house tops. Nobody makes
a false step downward but they are
ready to grease the track. They are
always hearing strange noises and that
they have wheels is evidenced by the
spokes that come out of their mouths.
These common gossips are a greater
menance to a neighborhood than a
man with a barrel of Schlitz. They
are the rattlesnakes and cockabrices
that infest every walk of life. They
are the hydroheaded monsters whose
venomus fangs inoculate all who
came in reach. These garblers are
swifter than wind, and more vocifer
ous than a fog-horn. They are respon
sible in a great measure for the sui
cides, murders, divorces and ruined
homes in the land. Hades is popu
lated with !)'. per cent of their kind
and it is an absolute necessity for such
to get their deserts. Ministers may
preach and people may pray until
doomsday but the world will be little
the better as long as sanctimonious
deacons and henpecking sooieties clasp
their hands and roll their eyes like a
calf with the colic and delight in be
smirching another's fair name. Ex.

CLYDE WRIGHT
IS CAPTURED
From Weeping Water He Wade His Escape
Across t!ie River Into Iowa.
A VERY BOLD, BAD BOY
Takes Desperate Chances in Escaping
From the Train.
HE JUMPS THROUGH A CAR WINDOW
Clyde Wright, the bold, bad boy
whom Sheriff McBride has wanted
since his escape from Constable Mc
Nurlin, has again been captured and
is now in the hands of Iowa officers
awaiting requisition papers from Gov
ernor Mickey.
Wright lias quite a record estab
lished for one so young. lie was sent to
the reform school from Lancaster coun
in the first place. After remaining at
the reformatory a short time lie
effected his escape and returned to
Lincoln. Superintendent Haywardof
the reformatory, being informed of
his whereabouts went after him and
got him. In taking him back to
Kearney, and while on the train,
Wright seized upon an opportunity
and jumped through the car window.
He made his way to Weeping Water
where he claimed to have an uncle
living, but this the superintendent
knew nothing about. He secured a
detective and he in someway found
out the facts in the case and went to
Weeping Water after the boy. At the
latter place the first inquiry he made
was at a livery barn where Wright
was employed and of Wright himself.
Wright told him- the. boy he wanted
was not there but he could find the
object of his search at Elm wood, and
volunteered to take him there" in a
buggy. At Elmwood the kid dropped
the detective and returned to Weeping
Water. Superintendent Hayward ap
prised Sheriff McBride of Wright's
whereabouts and the sheriff telephoned
McNurlin to arreso him and lie would
come over after him. But before
starting McNurlin telephoned the
sheriff that his prisoner had "flew the
coop" and made good his escape.
Sheriff McBride has never relin
quished his search for Wright and
now has the satisfaction of locating
him at Hamburg, la., and is now
awaiting the necessary papers to bring
him to the institution from which he
escaped. This was all done without the
aid of those bloodhounds which seem
to worry the editor of the Weeping
Water Herald so" greatly.
