THURSDAY, . SEPTEMBER 2D, 1S13. PLATTSSKOUTH SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL. Ten Snecial Points of Excellence ' , tt. rouna upon ivacme oaiuey s New Stawana Gang Plow The Plow with the "AUTOMOBILE STEERING GEAR Please Note All Are Exclusive Features Not Found on Any Other Plow Made. First Steering Gear. Automatic style direct and position, no springs allows the plow to turn at right angles, either to the right or left, pre vents sliding' of the front land wheel and takes all strain from same when turning. Every time the front furrow wheel turns either way the front land wheel is forced to turn in exact unison. Second Hitch. Two horses on EACH SIDE of the pole, regular farm wagon eveners, no patent equalizers needed. Center of draft lies ex actly between the two teams, per mitting them to walk as straight and naturally as though they were hitched to your old farm wagon. Third Land Wheel. Front land wheel is set direct ly opposite the front furrow wheel, the arm holding same be ing at the extreme front corner of the fram. The land wheel is set at an angle or inclined in at the bottom, same as the furrow wheel. Fourth Side Draft. This construction "Hitch and Land Wheel" secures greater leverage in controlling the course of the plow and does away with ALL SIDE DRAFT. Fifth Control. The tongue controls all three wheels by placing the land wheel at the extreme front of the frame, enables us to connect it direct to the tongue post. Sixth Single Bail. Beams and bottoms being hung in frame on one bail gives this plow a flexible floating bottom G. P.

The council received a com munication from Theodore Stuckleii asking permission for the exteiisii.ii of a private sewer from the corner of Patterson ave nue and llermie street to his resilience, which was referred to the lire and water committee for proper action. Chairmaa. Vrohrnan of the cemetery committee reported that on a recent visit to ,()ak Hill cemetery he had noticed a large number of the tombstones to be in bad shape, some of them hav ing fallen to the ground" and others leaning to one side quite badly, and he made a motion that the sexton be notified to tlx up the smaller ones and to furnish the eity clerk with 'a list of the owners of the larger tombstones, in order that they could be notified to see if they would not help in the expense of putting them in place. On motion of Councilman Tia jeck George Sayles was notified to have a permanent' walk placed along his property running along Eleventh street to the alley. Councilman Vroman also asked that the grader be used on Lin coln avenue, where the street had become quite rough and hard to travel over. The engineer for the city was notified to get ready the plans and specifications for the Tiiird street curbing and guttering as soon as possible in order that the work might be gotten under way. The finance committee of the council reported favorably upon the foil. wing claims against the city, and on motion, warrants were ordered drawn for their payment: F. CI. Egenberger, rent for city hall, ? 113.75; W. B. Rishel, street sprinkling and sweeping, ?39 20; Waterman Lumber Co., lumber, $38.85; H. C. McMaken & Son, concrete walks, $22.88; H. C. McMaken & Son. concrete walks, 44.88; R. A. Bales, printing, 15.28; Frank .. c.i. - and insures at all times every pound of weight,, including the drivers, being carried on the wheels. This gives us our light draft and allows the wheels to pass over rough ground without in the least affecting the depth of the furrow. Seventh Furrow Wheel Control. Automatic steering rod no side thrust on tongue; adjustable rear furrow wheel not a flee ted by horse motion. Eighth Foot Lift. Extremely high double bear ing adjustable to small boy or large man conveniently located and when bottoms are raised no levers are in the way and it comes just right to be used as a step for the operator to reach the seat. Ninth Main Frame. One piece no joints extra heavy stock will not spring. Tenth Shares. Made of "Sattley Special" sofe center steel, absolutely guaran teed against breakage and war ranted to scour in any soil. The New Sattley Stawana Gang Plow is no experiment. We hav ing built it for three years with this plow as now perfected. The Racine Sattley company this year made a killing and with it clean ed up the plow trade of Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Wisconsin. Ohio and Indiana, and intend to do the same in Iowa and Nebraska this fall "and the spring of 10i4. The plow speaks for itself. Every live dealer and farmer, af ter going over its many excellent points not found on any other plow made, must admit its superiority. We absolutely guarantee this gang plow in every way.

There was a very pleasant gathering yesterday at the home of Robert Harris and wife in the south part of the city, when a number of their friends came in unexpectedly to remind them of their eighth wedding anniversary. The host and hostess were not aware of the intentions of the neighbors and were resting nicely at home when the crowd began to drop in and shower them with their best wishes and congratula tions on the event. The party came well prepared with baskets of good things to eat, and these were spread out at an appropriate hour, when the jolly crowd sat down to a most sumptuous lunch eon and some of those in attend ance declared that while Mr. Setz did not care for fried chicken, he did not let any of it go to waste. The afternoon was spent most delightfully by the jolly crowd in a general good time, and at a late hour they departed for their homes, wishing Mr. and Mrs. Harris many happy returns of the day. The guests for the happy event were: Fred Patterson and wife and daughter; John Toman, wife and four sons; Joe Sebatka, wife and son; Eugene Setz and wife, they leaving the children at home for fear of catching the measels. A DELIGHTFUL Til AT JOHNSON HOME From Tuesday's Daily. Sunday Miss Peggy Johnson entertained the members of the C. C. club of Omaha, of which she is a member. The young ladies were met at the station and were taken to the bridge, where dinner was prepared over large camp fires and was partaken of on the banks of our famous Missouri. The country far and near around the bridge was explored by I lie fair Omahans, who declared that the Plait smouth hills held more beauty than they had ever dream ed of. After satisfying themselves that gold and silver could not be found among the rocks, they par ticipated in a boat, ride, which was an excellent, one and most thoroughly enjoyed. They were then taken to Miss Peggy's home, "Riverview," in South Park, where they found everything for their amusement- posing before the kodak seemed to afford much merriment among the happy meinbers, as each one tried to surpass the other in the art of posing. Miss Peggy delivered several pieces in elocution, after which songs and conversation held full sway. At an appropriate hour the hostess led her guests to the dining room, which had been splendidly deoraled in their col ors, violet and white, and where a most tempting' luncheon yas served by Mrs. O. Johnson and assistants. The color scheme was even carried out in the des sert, cake and fruit. Another hour was spent in song and con versation and then all made their way to the Missouri Pacific sta tion, where they boarded the 7:45 train for Omaha, declaring they had never spent a happier Sunday for many years. Miss Johnson also accompanied them to Oma ha to resume her duties at the new Douglas county court house. SOME "CRACKER JACK" LIES OF MARRIED MEN The editor of this paper sent out a circular to a large number of married men asking them "why they married?" Here are some of the answers: Because I did not have the ex perience I have now. That's what I have been Irving to find out for eleven years. I have married to get even with her mother, but never have. I had .yearned for company, now we, have it all the time. I thought it would be cheaper than a breach of promise suit. Because Sarah told me that live other men had proposed to her. That's the same fool question my friends ask me. I wanted a companion of op posite sex. She is still opposite. The old man was going to give me his fool, so I took his daugh ter's hand. Because I thought she was one among a thousand now I think she is a thousand among one. I was lonely and melancholy and wanted someone to make me lively. She makes it very lively. PEOPLE GET MARRIED From Tuesday's Daily. More of the young people of the county are deserting the standard of single blessedness and enrolling themselves in the ranks of the n.-wly weds, as is shown by t lit records in the office of County Judge Allen J.

THE CASE AGAINST CHR1SWISSER LOST From Tuesday's Dailv. Yesterday afternoon the case of the Stale of Nebraska vs. Park Chriswisser. charging him with running his automobile at a speed greater than the law al lows, was staged in Justice M. Archer's court, and attracted a large number of spectators to hear the evidence in the case. The stale placed Mr. and .Mrs. George Perry iu the stand, who testified that Mr. Chriswisser and an other man had passed them on Lincoln avenue while they were driving along in their buggy, about opposite the north gate at the Burlington shops, and that they were going al a rate of speed in excess of the limit. The defendant ;iid his wife were also on the stand and swore they were together driving in their car on the occasion alleged by the state, and did not pass any vehicle un til after they had passed Bach's store, several blocks south of where Perry claimed to have passed them- The defense also offered the speedometer in evi dence to show (hat the driver of I lie car had not exceeded the speed limit.

After de liberating for some lime the jury brought in a verdict of not guilty and the defendant was cleared of the charge of having violated the law.

Editor Journal: I write you this to inform you we, Mrs. Propst and I, are still on terra-tirma, but high up on the Adrondack mountains, where the scenery is grand and the atmos phere is tiuite different from that we experienced in Nebraska this summer. I cannot tell you at this time about the different places of interest that we visited, only that we came by the way of Niagara Falls, Toronto, the St. Lawrence river, through the Thousand Is lands, landing at Montreal. From the province of Quebec, as you look in a westerly direction, you see Montreal in all its gradeur, as part of the town is located on the ea?l slope of a very high mountain.

At the headwaters of the St. Law rence, on one of the islands, Mr. Pullman of the Pullman car com pany is building' a castle that is costing over $1,000,000. The forest fires are making- it very unpleasant for the inhabitants here. Large columns of smoke can be seen by day and the sky is lighted by night. This fire has been burning for more than one month, with hundreds of men saving what properly they can. Deer have been driven to fhe set tlements in large number, but they are safe from the hunter's riile until October 10, when the season opens for hunting. Thi village (Moriah) is situated on a high elevation one mile from Port Henry, 'and one can see for manv miles out over Lake Cham- plain, across the lake into Ver mont, where the Green mountains project skyward.
