THAT WHICH MAKES A
GOOD PROSPEROUS TIN
When Its Citizens and Business
Men Join With One Accord
in Boosting.
What makes a town, ajiyway?
Is it the wealth evidenced by fine
homes and splendid store build
ings? These may attest the
stability and thrift of certain peo
ple, but they offer no great in
ducement, to commercial and
moral progress.
Is it the spirit of good order
and law observance? That, is a
factor only. The sleepiest old
hamlets that dot the map have
this spirit in rank arid abundance.
Is sit the schools and churches?
May their number ever increase,
but t hey don't, make a town, I hey
only cultivate it,. Is it. the geog
raphical location, the character of
the country surrounding it, the
shipping facilities, the natural
advantages?
None of these is an essential.
Well, what is it that makes a
town anyway? Just, one thing
the unity of the people, the ex
istence of a common bond which
causes business enemies to put,
aside all differences when it
conies to boosting a town. No
town ever made real progress on
the way to substantial success
without the get together spirit
unanimously adopted. It has
rejuvenated old hulks of towns
that were yawning their way into
endless sleep. It has infused new
blood into the heart of commer
cial life and made thriving cities
out of paralytic villages.
Natural advantages count for
much and prosperity cannot be
built on shifting sand, but any
town with half a chance can be
made to grow and expand and
thrive when its citizens join with
one accord in the boosting pro
gram.
A Great Help to Farmers.
Mr. A. J. Uuss of Omaha, rep
resenting the Independent Har
vester company of Piano, Illinois,
was in the cily this week in
I he interest of his company. This
is one of the largest institutions
of its character in the United
Stales and deals directly with
those who are interested in the
articles manufactured by this
company the farmer. 1 lie com
pany manufacturers every article
of machinery used in farming,
and their mode of doing business
is of advantage to every farmer.
The company is principally made
up of farmers, who take $100
slock each, which guarantees
every such stockholder goods at
5 per cent discount, besides
their stock percentage. The
proposition is a fair one and
several of our substant ial farmers
have subscribed slock, and Mr.
Nuss will be hero again Monday
to induce others to go into the
arrangement. A supply depart
ment will be established at Oma
ha, and probably a supply branch
in Plattsmouth.

Large Number of Members of
Order and Their Families
are Present.
From Saturday's Dally.
Last evening was the first of a
number of social melings of the
Plattsmouth Aerie of Eagles. The
lodge has for some t ime been con
templating the holding of these
social gatherings for the mem
bers of the order and their
families, and when we say that
the first attempt was a grand suc
cess it is indeed hut a partial
statement.
There were about, sixty present
last evening and they were most
.royally entertained. Several
tables of progressive high five
were one of the most pleasant
features of. the program. A total
of eleven games were played and
the prizes were awarded as fol
lows: J. F. Eischeid won the gen
tlemen's grand prize, winning
nine games of I lie eleven, and J.
K. Mclianicl took the booby prize,
a handsome imitation of a white
Spitz dog, with its long, curly hair
and bow legs. Mac being a great
lover of dogs, this prize was
greatly appreciated by him, but he
says he will balk when City Clerk
Wurl calls on him for the $1 dog
tax. Mr. McDaniel won two games
of I he eleven. Mrs. Fred Egen
berger won the grand ladies'
prize and Mrs. Joseph Hadraba
the booby one.
Mr. L. Fi. llialt and Mr. fieorge
Tartsch were present, with man
dolin and guitar and furnished'
some excellent instrumental and
vocal music during the evening,
which was indeed very pleasing
to all. When you think the boys
are not, capable of the occasion
you are fooled. L. P. joins
Ocorge in the singing of Herman
songs like a veteran in the line.
Of course it is expected that Mr.
Hartsch would be able to handle
a stunt of this class, but we were
surprised over L. R
After the close of the progres
sive high five series all were in
vited to partake of the well pre
pared line of refreshments, which
consisted of various lines of cold
meals, cakes galore, delicious lee
cream and plenty of sweet lemon
ade. After this most pleasing
feature of the evening the hour
wns growing quite late and time
for home taking.
It was indeed a most pleasant
evening and the committee ap
pointed to look, after the affair are
to be commended upon I he excel
lent manner in which it was
handled.

AN OLD TRICK PRAGTIGED
ON ONE DFOUR MILLINERS
Stranger Buys Hat for KIs Wife,
Giving Check In Payment, and
Secures $3 In Cash.
From Saturday's Jially.
Yesterday evening shortly aft
er, (5 o'clock a stranger in the city
called at the millinery store of
Mrs. Norton for the purpose of
selecting and buying a new bon
nnet for his wife. ' He found the
new piece of lady's headgear that
he thought to be the very article
that would appeal to the eye of
his better half. As he requested
Mrs. Norton to wrap the new bat
up, he just discovered that he had
no money, and asked if a check
would be accepted as payment,
and as tho hat was valued at $3
he made the check out for $6 and
Mrs. Norton gave him the balance
in cash.
He signed his name as Larson,
and no sooner had he left the
building than Mrs. Norton called
up the banker at his residence to
ascertain if such a man had any
money on deposit at that bank,
and to her surprise, found that
her suspicions .were true, he was
unknown. The police were im
mediately notified of the transac
tion and took up the trail, but the
fellow seemed to have found a
cavity in the earth and completely
disappeared, and up to the present
time has not heen seen. He prob
ably ditched the hat al the first
opportunity, as the cash end of
the deal was all that he was afti,
