Preceding the ceremony, Miss
Lorenz, a cousin of the bride, from

an uncle of the bride, read the im
pressive marriage vows. During the
ceremony, the pianist played "Twi
light Echoes," and immediately after

Love." The congratulations and good
wishes from the relatives and close

and Chintilly lace over silver cloth.

LARGE CROW
ATTEA
GHA
THE
TAilQUA
Mr. Morris G. Hindus' Lecture on
Russia Today V. as a Grand and
Interesting Talk.
The second day of the Plattsmouth
Chautauqua saw a much larger crowd
present at the afternoon session, and
every one was enthusiastic over the
success of the event that had brought
such excellent talent to the city. The
Kuehn concert company was the at
traction in the afternoon and certain
ly scored a distinct hit by their well
selected program of the very highest
class of music. Each of the mem
bers of the company is an artist and
every selection was given with artistic
finis-h and skill that demonstrated the
ability of the members. Prof. Kuehn,
the violinist, was more than pleasing,
and his thorough understanding and
playing of the solo numbers as well
as in the trios was greatly enjoyed.
IWrs. Kuehn served as accompanist at
the piano for the solos and in the trio
numbers, showing her wonderful abil
ity at this instrument and adding
much strength to the program. Mr.
Dimilik, the cello member of the trio,
was heard in two solo numbers, both
clifiicult, and splendidly carried out.
Miss Bmke, the soprano of the com
pany, was repeatedly encored in her
selections and was very generous in
her responses to the demands of the
audience, and her charming voice was
one of the features of the program
that will long be remembered bv I
those who attended the afternoon pro
gram. At the evening session of the Chau
tauqua the Kuehn company gave a
thort forty-five minute musical pre
lude which afforded the members of
the company an opportunity to fur
ther demonstrate their skill.
The piincipal feature of th. evening
Was tht lciure by Murru .-. Hindus
on "liussiu Today,"- and was a clear
cut and strong statement of the condi
tions in that country and the i, i
that had led to the revolutions ana
the fm-'l trrthrow ot th. czt.i. yii.
Hindus commenced the discussion of
the events in Russia from the period
in 182, when the first revolution oc
curred, and continued it until the final
overthrow of the czar and his family
in the present year. The speaker de
tailed the fact of the German influ
ence at the Russian court that had at
tempted to destroy the very existence
of the Russian people and render them
subjects of the German emperor, in
his wild dream of a world wide dom
ination. The Russian empress had
sought to advance the interests of
Geimany on every hand and her in
fluence over the weak czar had caused
the final separation of the ties be
tween the people and the throne and
the forced abdication of the emperor.
In the war the people had saw a hope
of escamnir from tho cho.-ikliHr Vi?,r,l
of German domination, but this, too
soon developed into a case of the
Russian court party seeking to en
run themselves at the cost of the
army and the Russian nation. Gen-
v.. ..!.- .inn in.- jiunisicr nan since iieen
found to have been in the pay of the
oemians ana na.l oetrayed the best
interests of the country and caused
the sacrifice of hundreds of thousands
of lives of the Russian manhood, who
had been sent to fight without food
or ammunition. The mission of the
new Russia was one of the greatest in
the world, the speaker stated, and the
new republic would be found support
ing the government of the United
States in the restoration of a suitable
and permanent peace, and that the
new government of Russia as well as
the Russian people desired their free
dom from the crafty and destructive
influences of Germany, and would not
for a minute think of a separate peace
with the central powers. The great
sincerity of Mr. Hindus - carried a
great impression to his hearers and
there could be little doubt of his deep
feeling for the unfortunate people of
his country, who have been sacrificed
by the traitors and hired agents of
Germany in the present war. The at
tendance was the largest so far in the
Chautauqua.
by Misses Edna Oehknking, Elsie
Kviv.'. r.;d Laura Jloldei ness. , The
punch howl was presided over by the
bride's sister, Miss Katlr.rine.
'The gifts oc cut' glar-s, linen, and

During the noon hour today quite
an exciting runaway took place on
Sixth street, when a horse attached
to one of the small wagons used in
delivering meat, and which was owned
by M. E. Manspeaker, became fright
ened and proceeded to raise all varie
ties of excitement for several min
utes. The runaway started on South
Sixth street when the horse became
frightened and ran north along the
street, and when crossing Main street
the animal decided to take the side
walk for the rest of the way and ac
cordingly dashed up onto the walk at
the Riley Hotel corner and continued
its flight north along the walk for a
block. It then ran across Vine street
and crashed into a window of the
Smith garage, cutting a very deep
and dangerous gash in the face and
from which the blood was flowing pro
fusely when the horse was taken to
the Manspeaker stable. The wagon
was torn up considerable but how it
escaped eiitire destruction is a mys
tery as the horse tore madly along ir.
its flight.

Are You One of Them?
There are a jrrent many people who
would be very much benefited by tak
ing Chamberlain's Tablets for a weak
or disordered stomach. .Are you one
of them? Mrs. ILI. R. Scarl, lialdwin
ville, N. Y., relates her experience in
the u..e of these tablets: "I had a bad
ppcll with my stomach about six
months ao, and was troubled for two
or three weeks with gas and severe
pains in the pit of my stomach. Our
druggist advised me to take Chamber
lain's Tablets. I took a bottle home
and the first dose relieved me wonder
fully, and I kept on taking them until
was cured." These tablets do not
relieve pain, but after the pain has
been relieved may prevent its recur
rence.

the nation's big food'drhe is afforded
by 'the monthly crop report ' of the
Nebraska state' board of agriculture
issued today by Secretary E. R. Dah
ielson. '
A month ago Mr. Danielson pointed
out that the acreage in Nebraska de
voted to potatoes -had been increased
00 per cent or -nearly double that of
any previous year. Now, with the
potato crop practically "made," twen
ty-one of the ninety-three counties in
the state"; report 100 per- cehii for-thd
condition of potatoes. Mr. Danielson
estimates that - Nebraska - will yield
twice as many potatoes as ever before
in its history and far beyond the
needs 'of the 'stalcv- l-'-'v-
Not a single county in the state re
ported the ' condition of the potato
crop below 80 per cent, while the ma
jority of estimates ranged from 90 td
95 per cent an unrivalled outlook in
Nebraska.- - -".

potato conditions- are: Boone. Cedar,
