work, but when finished will be a great
benefit to those traveling the said high
way. It is said that this is a habit
that' is not contagious, especially if
carefully avoided, but if all the farmers
would get an equal amount of energy
in their respective neighborhood, much
good might be accomplished, ard a
great relief afforded the weary traveller
and he will invariably notice the im

of the energetic class. Don't complain
about the road; donate a few hours
work, which will be a much better
remedy.

KfiPPY MARRIAGE
NEAR ROCK BLUFFS
Rev. J. T. Baird Unites W. G. Eoe
dekcr and Miss May Leer. a
Sans in Wedlock.
Last evening at eight o'clock at the
charming home of Jos. Sans and wife,
near Rock Ulufls, occurred a very
charming home wedding at which Miss
May Leona Sans became the wife of
William Glenn Boedeker.
There were some one hundred and
twenty guests present at the ceremony
which wa3 performed by Rev. J. T.
Baird, the aged Presbyterian divine of
this city. Besides those from the
immediate neighborhood who had known
Miss Sans from childhood, there were a
host from this city, Murray, Union and
other points, all of whom had known
these two most estimable young peo
ple and who were delighted to be pre
sent at so auspicious a union.
For the occasion the house had been
tastefully and artisticalty decorated,
the predominating tint being pink and
the combination of pink and white
proving neat and effective. The flowers
were of those two hues.
The ceremony took place upon the
piazza of the house, the guests being
assembled upon the lawn in front. . To
the strains of the wedding march play
ed by Mrs. Geo. H. Gilmore, the happy
couple stepped forth upon the piazza
from the house, the bride being attend
ed by Miss Ida Boedeker, a sister of
the groom, as bridesmaid, and the
groom being attended by K. Glenn
Rawls of this city, as groomsman. The
ceremony being the ring ceremony, lit
tle Verda Cross, a niece of the bride,
had the proud distinction of being the
ring bearer, carrying the ring upon a
rose. I he bride carried a very hand
some bouquet of bride roses while the
bridesmaid carried a boquet of pink
roses. The bride was dressed most be
comingly in Ivory Mezaline while her
attendant maid wore a pink dress which
well become her.
Previous to the ceremony Mil. Jas.
Holmes of Murray sang quite ap
propriately a.id with most delightful
effect, De Koven's beautiful ballad
"Oh! Promise Me.;' Rev. Baird then
pronounced the words which united this
young couple for life.
Immediately following the ceremony
the guests sat down to a fine three
course wedding supper which had been
prepared under the direction of Mrs.
Jas. H. Donnelly of this city, and
which was a veritable feast of rare en
joyment. At a late hour the wedding party
broke up, the bride and groom being
taken in a carriage and driven to this
city, later going to Pacific Junction by
carriage and taking the Burlington's
early morning train for the west. They
expect to be gone for a week or ten
days visiting in Denver and other
points in Colorado.
Among those from this city who at
tended the wedding were Messrs. and
Mesdames F. G. Morgan, Wm. Wehr
bein, and C. A. Rawls, Mr. R. Glenn
Rawls, and Rev. J. T. Baird.
The personel of the newly wedded
couple is so well known througheut this
section that little need be said of them.
The bride is the daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Jos. Sans of near Rock Bluffs, a
most charming young woman who has
lived all her life among the good peo
ple who witnessed her marriage last
evening, a most exemplary young
woman and one who numbers her fast
friends by myriads. Personally very
popular, she has a host of friends who
extend to her their heartiest congratu
lations and best wishes for the future.
William Glenn Boedeker, the groom,
is also a Cass county product and one
of the most popular young men in the
county. A business man of marked
ability, he at present enjoys the honor
able and lucrative position of cashier
of the bank of Murray. He also has a
wide circle of friends, in fact his
friends are his acquaintances, for to
know him is to appreciate the sterling
qualities of his young manhood- To
him also comes the congratulations of
all as well as their best wishes for a
long and happy wedded life.

Why Colds are Dangerous.
Because you have contracted ordinary
colds and recovered from them without
treatment of any kind, do not for a
moment imagine that colds are not
dangerous. Everyone knows that pneu
monia and chronic catarrh have their
origin in a common cold. Consumption
is not caused by a cold but the cold pre
pares the system for the reception and
developement of the germs that would
not otherwise have found lodgment. It
is the same with all infectious diseases.
Diphtheria, scarlet fever, measles and
whooping cough are much more likely
to be contracted when the child has a
cold. You will see from this that more
real danger lurks in a cold than in any
other of the common ailments. The
easiest and quickest way to cure a cold
is to take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
The many remarkable cures effected by
this preparation have made it a staple
article of trade over a large part of the
world. For sale by F. G. Fricke & Co.

GRAND LODGE
! 13 SESSION

" I
i
1 Dt ree of Kcnor facets at Lin-
ccln Fight over Re
corder Red Hot
The following report of the Grand
Lodge of the Degree of Honor which
convened at Lincoln yesterday is taken
from the State Journal. From what is
there printed it would appear the light
for Recorder between Miss Hempel of
this city and Mrs. Woolley of Lincoln,
is very hot. Miss Hernpel's many
friends here are hopeful of her victory
as it i3 merited. The election takes
place this morning.
This morning session yesterday was
given up solely to the conferring of the
grand lodge degrees upon the past
chiefs of honor by the grand chief of
honor Mrs. Latky.
The business of the afternoon was
chiefly routine in its character, but
here and there resolutions which caused
considerable stir were introduced.
Much enthusiasm was manifested when
the resolutions relating to making the
committee having charge of finance
and lodge law elective rather than con
tinuing them appointive as they have
been. This is a question which has
been under discussion at each grand
lodge meeting for the past twelve years.
Mrs. Anna Rogers, past chief of honor
of Hastings lodge, says that she intro
duced and fought for the passage of
this resolution in Lincoln ten years ago.
G. M. Murdock of Nebraska City took
an active part in the discussion of this
resolution in the lodge in the afternoon
where he fought for its passage.
Besides the address of the grand mas
ter workman in the afternoon the nom
inations of the candidates for the differ
ent grand offices occupied considerable
time. There were very little excite
ment attending the nominations.
Recorder Fight Hot.
On the two grand committees there
will be three of the nominees elected
for each, the three members having the
highest number of votes being the ones
to serve during the coming year. The
competition for the offices is noticeable
only in the case of the office of grand
chief of honor and that of grand re
corder. While there are three candidates for
the office of grand chief of honor it is
believed by those taking the greatest
interest in the contest that the fight
will be between Mrs. Latky and Mrs.
Cleaver and a great many members
were very free in their predictions last
night that the latter would defeat the
present encumbent. The contest for
the office of grand chief of honor is not
nearly so spirited as that of Miss Hem
pel and Mrs. Woolley the candidates
for the office of grand recorder. This
fight has been waged in the corridors
of the Lindell hotel for two entire days
and late last night both candidates were
confident of winning by a large margin
Last night being the closing night be
fore the election which occurs the first
thing this morning, the topic of con
versation in the grouDS of women who
gathered here and there in the state
house was without exception relating
to the election of the grand recorder.
In some instances the fight has become
very bitter and it has been hinted that
misrepresentations have been resorted

Tlx- grand lodge of the Degree of
Hoik r, which was in session all day in
the lepie; entativcM hamber of the state
house conferring grand lodge degrees
and transacting much important busi
ness, gave a reception last night at
whic h a program of addresses and mus
ical numbers was given. While the
members and guests were assembling
music was furnished by a local orches
tra. The program, which was presid
ed over by Mrs. Maud Johnson, chief
of honor of Lincoln lodge. No. 101, was
opened with an address of welcome by
J. J. Ryder, who took the place of
Governor Sheldon, as the governor
was unable to be present. He spoke of
the Degree of Honor lodge as an army
of banners which was doing great go(nl
in the country. Much laughter was
caused by his facetious remark when
he said that he noticed that the lodge
was up-to-date and dealing in the ques
tion of injunctions, which question was
today occupying the attention of the
two great political parties. Mrs. Mary
A. Latky, grand chief of honor, res
ponded to the remarks of Mr. Ryder,
giving a lengthy discourse on the great
good which the order is now doing.
She told of the vast numbers now con
stituting the lodge and the great
amounts paid out yearly in benefact
ions. Her address was followed by a
vocal solo by Miss Nellie Woodring. A
diversion from the regular program
was an original poem entitled "Now
and Then," which was read by Miss
Teresa Hempel with good elTect. Mrs.
L. G. English of Lincoln sang just be
fore and immediately after an address
which was delivered by A. M. Walling,
grand master workman of the A. O.
U. W. lodge. His was an address
which dealt with the two allied frater
nities in their work of doing good.
Drill Team's Work.
Following the address by the grand
master drill teams from the Schuyler
and Elmwood lodges gave a character
istic Degree of Honor drill. Those tak
ing part in this were young women
dressed in spotless white, which was to
symbolize the purity of the order's in
tentions. Refreshments were served
at the close of the program during the
social hour which followed.
Mr. Beal is About.
M. M. Beal, the painter, who was so
severely bruised yesterday while at his
work in the Coates block, was so far
recovered today as to be able to be up
on the street, walking with the aid of a
cane. He is very sore and the physician
states that it will be a long time before
he will be entirely recovered. He is
unable to account for the accident save
that the plank which struck him was
slightly overbalanced. He considers
that he had a very close shave from a
dangerous injury.
Return to Their Homes.
Last Monday evening Messrs Philip
Hild and George Meisinger, of Pekin,
111., who have been in the city and vicin
ity for several weeks past visiting with
old friends and relatives departed for
their homes. The gentlemen do not
live in Pekin but in the immediate
neighborhood. During their stay in
this vicinity they had a fine time meet
ing their many old time friends and
neighbors who were certainly numerous.
They are both fine men, pleasant and
sociable to meet, and wealthy and pros
perous citizens. There was a very large
number ot their friends at the Burling
ton station to witness their departure
and bid them good luck upon iheir
journey.
W. F. Gillespie of Mynard was in the
city yesterday afternoon, driving up,
and was accompanied by Mrs. Caroline
Hinton, mother of Mrs. Gillispie, who
makes her home with them. Mrs.
Hinton will remain in Plattsmouth a
few days, the guest of her daughter,
Mrs. Jos. W. Johnson. Mrs. Hinton is
certainly a very spry olJ lady for one
of her advanced age, being eighty-four
years old next March.
A party of Plattsmouth citizens who
will take part in the Tripp county land
drawing departed on the mail at noon
for O'Neill where they will register.
Tha party was composed of C. A. John
son, L. C. Anderson ard David Wallen
gren. The gentlemen all hope that
they will be among the lucky ones and
will come back with improved chances
for possessing a f.ne farm. It is to be
hoped that their :'M! ieinations are real
ised and that gof.d 1'orturi'j will foilow
them.
