The picnic billed for last Sunday at
the borne of Alfred Gansmer was very
poorly attended owing to the extreme
cold weather for this time of year.
The Phillips band and orchestra did
not venture out and of course the fea
ture of the program was simewhat
marred. We understand some of the
boys In attendance enjoyed a game of
baseball, while spectators wore their
overcoats and fur wraps. The Ice
cream vender closed up shop, and the
man with the hot code took his place.
There were something like fifty guests
present and had a good time at that.
We understand that this Is the last
Sunday picnic, but many Saturday
night programs will be carried out
during the summer.
Dr. J. W. Brandal In Omaha.
For some months past Dr. J. W.
llrendel lias been contemplating on a
trip to Chicago where he would take a
month's course In one of the large
medical Institutes, but this trip was
entirely abandoned last week when
Dr. Allison, of Omaha, wrote him that
his assistant was going to take a few
weeks' vacation, and extended him an
Invitation to take his place. The doc
tor Jumped at this opportunity of be
ing with one of the greatest surgeons
In the west, and departed for Omaha
on schedule time, and has been pres
ent at every operation performed by
Dr. Allison since. In a letter to the
folks at home he states that he wit
nessed eleven successful operations In
one day, most of which were for ap
pendicitis. This will certainly be an
excellent schooling for the doctor.

OUR CASS COUNTY FRIENDS
The Journal Mao Spends I Couple of Dais
Verj Pleasantlj In Southern Cass.
On Monday morning of this week
the publisher of the Journal departed
from Plattsmouth over the Missouri
Pacific for Murray, where In company
with C. S. Stone, cashier of the Mur
ray bank, we started for a two days'
drive through the southern part of
Cass county, the first stopping place
being the flourishing little village of
Nehawka, where we enjoyed a few
hours social chat with a number of
our friends and readers, the first of
whom was Pr. Pollard, one of our
staunch democratic friends. This be
ing about the noon hour we placed the
team In care of Cunningham Bros.;
proprietors of one of the finest livery
and feed stables in the county, and
made an airline for thecity restaurant
where we found many good things In
readiness for the Inner man. The
restaurant Is run by Mr. Davis, and Is
a credit to a town much larger than
Nehawka. After dbiner we called
upon the various business firms of the
city, and as usual at this season of the
year they were not overly busy filling
orders, owing to the farmers finding
plenty of work at home, but all hands
were busy lining up their goods and
wares for trade on other occasions.
We enjoyed a short visit with Frank
P. Sheldon, the merchant king of the
town, also called at the Nehawka mill,
but being on Monday the machinery
was quiet, and the engineer, I. O.
(
of 11. M. Shrader's attached to a disc,
when the animals became frightened
and got beyond the control of Mr.
Gregg and look a lively spin across the
field. Mr. Gregg was ijulte seriously
Injured, and one of I he horses was
killed. This will prove unite a loss to
Mr. Shrader, who possibly took with
him just, enough horse Mesh to look
after his summer's work, und then the
animal was an extra line farm horse,
and even though lie has plenty w ill be

Church Chimes.
Certain men recently passed through
town on the Lord's day breaking
mules. The mules did not know
enough to obey their master's com
mands and were worthless without
this knowledge. The same thing Is
true of men who arc not wise enough
to obey the commands of their master
In heaven. "He ye not as the horse,
or as the mule, which have no under
standing; whoso mouth must be held
in with bit and bridle." "One Is
your master even Christ" whose com
mands we shall all obey, if not because
we love him, then because of His
authority.
We rejoice in the action of ourcitl
zens who refused to open his shop and
labor on the Lord's day. Hut If face
to face with death we would not care
to bank on the type of citizen that In
slsted that the shop should be opened

to choose one of these conditions, we Tucker, engaged In making the weekly
without doubt, would all select perfect "cleaning up," repairing the machin

first signs of a disease arc much easier and the Hour made by them is pro.

Ninety per cent of the commercial business is
done by means of paper. Monty represents prop
erty. A check means there is money deposited in
the bank to the credit of the one who writes the
check. If you have credit at the bank your check
is just as good as Uncle Sam's Money.
The check system, wliere safety aud conven
ience are assured, is much better than handling
the money when there is risk of error or loss.
It will pay you to open an account at the

home of J. G. Worden, one of the old
settlers of Cass county, and while the
old gentleman Is getting very feeble,
he arose from his bed and we enjoyed
a brief but very pleasant visit with
him.
We also called on J. A. Whiteman
and found him very busy replanting
corn, the entire field which was de
stroyed by the worms or field mice;
this is the unfortunate circumstances
of many farmers In that locality.
Again passing through Nehawka we
accepted the kind Invitation of Mr.
and Mrs. D. C. West to take dinner
with them, in company with Mr. and
Mrs. J. S. Stone. It Is unnecessary
for us to state that we here had the
pleasure of sitting before one of the
most excellent repasts of our life.
Shortly after dinner we returned
to Murray, taking the evening train
for Plattsmouth, feeling much better
after two days outing among our many
friends In the southern part of the
county.

In Honor of Miss Hotiseworth.
A jolly crowd of young people en
joyed a merry outing yesterday after
noon In honor of Miss Ruth House
worth, who departed this morning for
her home at Long Ueach, Cal. The
party wandered down the Fairy Glenn
where at a late hour in the afternoon
a wholesome as well as delectable feast
was spread in the shade of the trees
and all sat down to participate in one
of the last goodtimes with Miss Ruth
before she left from their midst,
Those whom we perceived wandering
home In the twilight were, Misses
Gertrude Ilartman, Z.elma Tucy, Ellen
Windham, Ruth Ilouseworth; Messrs.
Tom Swearlngen, Fred Iawson, David
White and Wade Miner.
Bridegroom Puts Up Two Licenses.
The fact that Jacob 15. Frey did not
know a marriage license was tjood only
In the county In which it was Issued
cost him IJ yesterday. Mr. Frey
secured a license to marry Lulu lletts,
of Avoca, and got It in Omaha on his
way to Plattsmouth, where the cere
mony was to be performed. When
the ceremony was about to take place
he found It would be necessary to
secure a permit from the Cass county
officials. He returned the Douglas
county license to the county Judge's
ofilce, but he was told the $2 he paid
for It could not be refunded. Mr.
Frey lives at Douglas. Omaha Bee.
At this time we decided to make a
drive further west to the fine little
village of Avoca, located on the south
line and almost in the center east and
west, arriving there but a few min
utes before six o'clock, and deciding
to remain over night we placed our
team in the care of A. E. Cutter, the
genial liveryman, and Immediately
started on a tour of making new friends
In this prosperous little village. As
this was our first trip to Avoca nearly
everyone were strangers to us. Among
the old friends whom we met were B.
C. Marquardt, proprietor of the largest
Some Fine Horses.
While in Avoca Monday we met Mr.
W. A. Rose and during our conversa
tion he invited us over to the barn
where he kept his line horses, two line
specimens of the Rosebud stock. Mr.
Rose Is u lover of line lior.se llesh and
in these two stallions lie possesses a
pair or animals ol tlie oest strair.s,
finely built and are good specimens lor
the all-purpose man to breed to: they
are not of the heavy and blocky stock,
but possess the weight, height and
length for a horse for all kinds of
work. Wlille M r. Rose does not reside
In Avoca, he is there three days of
each week Friday, Saturday and
Monday, and the other three Tues
day, Wednesday and Thursday In Ne
hawka, to meet all parties who might
wish to see his horses, at which time
lie will inform you as to breeding
terms.
