Judge Troup In Omaha Thursday
granted a decree if divorce to Mrs.
Alice Hutterlield from Charles D. Hut
tertleld, a hank cashier at Hamburg,
la., and Interested in a number of
other Iowa banks. Mr. Huttertleld
did not appear, but was represented
by his attorney, Charles M. Harl.
There was no contest, the details of
settlement having been made In ad
vance of the trial.
The decree does not award any all
mony as the financial arrangements
between the two had already been
made. It was not given out what
that settlement was, but Mr. Jami
son, In Ids testimony, told of a note
for $1H,000 given by Mr. Huttertleld to
his wife. A part of this, it was under
stood, was for money she had when
she married Mr. Huttertleld. Mrs
Huttertleld was given back her maiden
name, Alice Hirkhimcr.
The troubles of the Huttertleld fam
lly got into court in Nebraska City
when Mr. Huttertleld tiled a suit ask
ing heavy damages against M. K. Cat
ron, a bank cashier of that place, for
the alleged alienation of his wife's af
fectlons. The suit recently was dis-
missed and disbarment proceedings
have been begun against John (7. Wat
son, one of the attorneys, on grounds
of unprofessional conduct In cornice

Reciprocate!
Webster says: "To reciprocate Is to
give and return mutually." The po
litical detlnatlon Is, "You scratch my
back and I'll scratch yours."
When Bill Jones buys his groceries
from John Smith because John Smith
buys his meat from JJill Jones, It is a
plain case of Wcbsterian reciprocity.
Now if Hill Jones buys his groceries
in an eastern city do you blame John
Smith if he refuses to buy meat from
Hill Jones? See the point?
The people of I'lattsmouth should
"reciprocate" in the matter of trade.
That is if a man earns ills living In
I'lattsmouth he should see that the
bulk of It Is spent here. (Jet the
habit! Reciprocate!

IN THE 6000 OLD
Summer time
Appropriation Goea Through.
A special from Washington to the
Omaha I'.ee says: "Due largely to the
efforts put forth by Congressmen Pol-
lard and Kennedy the senate Unlay
passed the militia bill, carrying! ,000,
000. After the request of Adjutant
General Culver had been received to
aid wherever possible In passage of the
bill, the congressmen, through Scna
tor Millard, had a conference with
Senator Hopkins of Illinois, who had
the bill passed just as soon as he got a
chance in the senate.
"Speaker Cannon, It Is understood,
Is against the bill, while General Mor
rell is in favor of the measure. It was
thought that if the bill passed the
senate It would take a position on the
house calendar. As It carries an ap
proprlation, however, it will probably
be referred to the appropriations com
mlttee, in which event the outlook for
the bill at this session Is exceedingly
slim."
The Biggest Beet Yet.
The following, clipped from the Ort
Ing ( Wash.) ( )racle, refers to a former
Plattsmouth citizen, and no doubt
will be read w ith considerable interest
by Mr. Sampson's old neighbors and
friends:
"Mr. F.li Sampson has placed on ex
hlhitlon at the Oracle otlico an enor
mous beet grown on bis premises. It
was grown from seed planted last year
The beet was allowed to remain In the
ground all winter and escaped the
frosts, taking on new growth this
spring. The leaves are green and
thrifty. This beet, in circumference,
actually measures ."1 feet and 3 Inches,
and weighs 13 pounds and .1 ounces,
Vegetables like this should be on ex
hibition at the Valley Fair, and with
out doubt Mr. Sampson will see to It
this year that his big beets will find
their way to the prize tables."
Ing between himself and Catron was
arranged at my ollice. I had been re
tained by Catron to defend him in the
damage suit. After showing Hutter
tleld and Catron into my private ofilcc,
I left them there and went out Into
another room. They got to quarreling
and when I stepped Uick for a moment
into the room where they were Catron
said Huttertleld had threatened to
have him arrested on a charge of adul
tery unless he would pay UO.noo to
settle the damage case. I advised the
men to get toget her and then left them
again.
"In about half an hour Catron called
to me and told me lie and Hutterlield
bad settled. He showed me, the papers
and asked to have them acknowledged
I told him they did not need to, be but
he insisted, and so 1 called my notary,
Mr. Colin, who took lluttertield's ac
knowledgement. The papers wer
handed to Catron, after which I got
up and left the room. A few minutes
later, Huttertleld and Catron came out
we shook hands all around and they
left the ollice together, apparently In
a good humorand on friendly terms.
"Huttertleld came back in ten or
fifteen minutes and said he wanted
the papers. He claimed that they had
been obtained by fraud and duress.
That was the lirst, tlmcl heard any
thing about Ids charge that Catron
assaulted and choked him or drew a
gun on him. I told Hutterlield 1 could
not give him the papers because Cat
ron had them, and then he went away.
Of what happened while Catron and
Hutterlield were In my private ollice
together 1 am entirely ignorant except
for the short tlmo I was there. None
of the acts nor any suggestion of them
took place while I was In that room,
nor did I hear any disturbance from

His rattier had recently brought a
threshing machine home from Lin

the machine off the ground, and Jesse
crawled under the machine to loosen
a burr when the machine suddenly
slipped olT the Jack, crushing Jesse be

He was t bought to be dying, but in a

How to Break Up a Cold.
It may be a surprise to many to
learn that a severe cold can be com-
pletcly broken up In one or two days'
time. The lirst symptoms of a cold
arc a dry, loud cough, a profuse watery
discharge from the nose, and a thin,
white coating on the tongue. When
Chamberlain's cough remedy Is taken
every hour on the lirst appearance of
these symptoms, it counteracts the ef
fect of the cold and restores the sys
tem to a healthy condition within a
day or two. For sale by F. G. Frlcke

The Junction City (Kansas) llepub-
llcan, In speaking of the Parker
Amusement company which was In
tli.it city last week, like every paper
in all the towns in which this com
pany lias appeared, has a good word
for It, and In Its Issue of last Friday
has the following to say, which Is
enough to convince the Journal that
the Kaglcs made no mistake when
they contracted with their advance
man, Mr. Harry Shields, for their ap
pearance in Plattsmouth for the week
beginning J uly U:
"TheC. W. Parker Amusement com
pany which occupies JetTcrson street
from tilhtoHth and who are here to
furnish the attractions for the Fire
Fighters' Spring Jubilee, arrived on
Sunday evening and brought a train
of fourteen cars. While this Is not
I he largest, of Colonel Parker's four
companies it is conceded on all sides
to bo the best, and after the sad ex
perience Junction City had with a
carnival company last year It Is cer
tainly very gratifying to us to say to
our readers and t lit; public In general
that the Fire Laddies made no mis
take when they engaged tho C. W.
Parker Amusement company. We
have often heard and read of the 'Par
ker Standard' but this week It has
been fully demonstrated and it stands
for nothing but clean, meritorious
shows, courteous treatment from
every attache, no drunkenness or
rowdyism among employes and abso
lutely and positively no gambling or
grafting, and any shows conducted on
these lines are bound to succeed. The
free attractions are all high class and
the best of their kind ever seen here.
La Petitl Faustina, the vivacious
young lady who loops the big steel
loop In a hollow wooden ball, has an
act second to none in the carnival
business. And the Immense crowds
who have witnessed this daring and
death defying performance are spell
bound.''
To Receive Mr. Bryan.
The preliminary steps for the big
gest reception ever given to an Ameri
can citizen by Omaha and Nebraska
people are being prepared by Mayor
Dahlman, to be accorded William Jen
nings Hryan on his return home after
a trip around the world.
Mayor Dahlman will write a letter
to Mr. Hryan next week, Inviting hi in
to come to Omaha, and the letter will
tie sent out In time to reach him on
his arrival in London, July !!.
A special effort will be made on the
part of the mayor to have Mr. Hryan
come direct to Omaha after the big
reception In New York City, which
will be given him on the day of his ar
rival from Europe.
No date can be fixed at this time,
but it would have to be about the lat
ter part of August, as Chicago and
Cleveland have practically made ar
rangements with Mr. Hryan for a re
ccptlon the first week In September.
With Hryan's acceptance of Mayor
Dahlman's Invitation, definite arrange
ments for the big event, will be consummated.
Mr. Dahlman suggests that upon
the arrival of Mr. Hryan In ttie city he
be given a dinner at one of the clubs
followed by a public reception, and a
general welcoming.
It Is believed that fully .in into peo
ple from Omaha would welcome Mr.
Hryan and about the same number
would bo present from towns through
out the state.
