The pleasant home of Mr. and Mrs.
L. H. Peterson, in the south part of
this city, rang with merriment last
evening when they entertained, in a
delightful manner, a large number of
young people, about seventy-five in
number. The occasion was in honor
of their daughters, Anna and Mary,
who are spending their Thanksgiving
vacation with their parents. Miss
Anna is attending a business school
at Omaha, while Miss Mary is teach
ing school near Alvo, Nebraska. The
young people had come prepared to
have a royal good time and expecta
tions were fully realized in the enter
tainment of last evening as those who

affair will long remember It. Various
games, music and the like were in

Yes.erday afternoon at about 2:30,
while Ed. Krnger was unloading a
bunch of jugs at J. E. McDanlel's
saloon ,a couple of young fellows ap
parently about 23 or 24 years of age,
one sandy with, red face, and the
other with a heavy dark complexion.
offered to ell Ed. a grip for 50 cents,
which he at once accepted and paid
the money. '
I-ater In the day a switchman, just
lately arrived In the city, hunted Ed.
up and asked if he had purchased a
grip, and described the grip he was
looking for. When the switchman
was through with the description Ed.
was convinced that the grip was the
property of the switchman, and went
to his rooms and produced it. The
switchman then asked what had been
done with his clothes which were In
the grip, a new overcoat, a new pair
of overalls, neckties and collars. Ed.
had not seen these articles as the
grip was empty when he got it.
The men were 'seen by Ed after he
purchased the grip, and before the
switchman had missed it, at the ferry
and wanted help to get over, so Ed.
asked the ferryman to let them go
over with a load which was just pull
ing from the shore; and they were
allowed to do so. The grip was taken
from the switch shanty in the Bur
lington yards here.
' lVuo Prints Arrive.
Mr. Bert Pollock received a com
munication from Major Iiurnham this
morning and also the blue print of
the lands on which the proposed rifle
range is to be located. The major
says that the appropriation of $25,
000 Is only available to July next,
and If the appropriation is not used
by the war department for the pur
chase of a range before that time, It
will revert to the treasury. The
major urges that the Plattsmouth
people get busy If they desire the
range located here. Options on the
properties covered by the range will
have to be procured at once and laid
before the war department, and as
there are about four or five hundred
acres to be covered, this ought not to
take very many days to secure. Mr.
Pollock motored over that way this
afternoon and will probably have the
matter In hand within a few days.
Kestliig In County Jail.
Deputy Sheriff Manspeaker arrived
In the city Wednesday evening with
three Union citizens, who had par

In County Court.

alleged, died in Colorado in 1874,
leaving no widow or children, but
collateral heirs, and that an addi

ther expense. Dr. Brcndel and Deputy
Manspeaker accompanied Mr. McDon
ald to a private hospital, where he
will take treatment.
Uncle Nick Halmes was In from the
country today, looking after business
matters In the city.
IT THE ML ORDER
HOUSES ARE SO THRIFTY
One reason why the mall order
houses thrive Is that the American
people lie to take a inance. They
used to buy lottery tickets and play
the races, but since the government
has taken a hand in the suppression
of that kind of gambling the people
have resorted to another variety.
Today they read an advertisement,
a gold watch for $5. Don't pay your
local dealer $15 for the same watch,
ana the average fellow who reads
that advertisement don't believe the
watch will be worth $5, but he de
cides he will take a chance and he
orders the watch.
Mrs. Blank reads an advertisement
of a grocery store selling groceries by
mall. The first item that catches her
eye Is 22 pounds of granulated sugar
for fl. If Bhe should turn to the
market page of the paper she would
see that sugar can't be bought in
carload lots at such a figure. But
she doesn't pay any attention tq the
market. She reads a great list, the
whole of which will be sent to her
for ten dollars. She takes a chance,
and usually pays more than the same
article could be bought for from the
local dealers.
When these same people buy from
a local dealer they examine Just what
they are getting. When they buy by
mall they don't know what they are
going to get until it arrives, and then
comes the pleasure of opening the
grab bag, and furthermore, the goods
are bought. There Is no going home
to think It over as Is the case when a
purchase Is made at the local store.
