was honored in the elect ioii. He
was elected to the position of
Grand Chancllor of the order for the

seen by his popularity.

LET EVERYONE BEWARE.
From Saturday's Daily.
As we paused in the street this
morning to make a jotting of an
item, we were startled by a sound
like the cracking of the. 'Day of
Doom.' and after alighting with our
hat standing on head, not our hair,
we looked around to see what was
the matter, and s-aw that genial
smile of Attorney Rawls. coming up
the s.treet behind the windshield of
a brand new Dodge Brothers car,
which he was learning to operate,
and he was doing it, too. For the
sake of 'Safety First he had sent
out the clarion notes from the toot
horn of the machine, that all who
step in the street might take warn
ing, to move along, and we moved
we assure you. We think Carl will
make as careful a driver as he is an
attorney, and that is all that will
be required.
For a Weak Stomach.
As a general rule all jou need to
do is to adopt a diet Milted to your
age and occupation and to keep your
bowels reguhir. When you feel that
you have eaten too much and when
constipated, take one of Chamber
lain's Tablets.

THE RAIN LOCAL ONLY.
From Thursday's Daily.
People who have been out in the
countv several miles report the
iain only extended out a few miles,
and beyond tLat the roads are dry.
Word comes from many places in
the south that in Arkansas and
southern Oklahoma, that a lack of
precipitation is in evidence, and
they would be better off if they had
more rain than they have been en
joying. They might have had a
drop or so of ours.
FALLS FROM BED

little Mildred Alexander. 2-Year-
Old Girl. Sustains Fracture
This Morning.

Near the noon hour today little
Mildred Alexander, the two-year-old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Alex

ed onto the bed to take her accus
ionied noonday nap, became overbal
anced and fell over the railing at the
foot of the bed to the floor below,
iicr right arm being twisted under
neath her body and caught by the
impact of the fall in such manner as
to fracture the bones just above the
wrist. Just before the fall little Mil
dred was frolicking across the foot
of the bed and looking and laughing
at her sister, which caused her to
lose her balance and fall. She was
brought to the city immediately by
her parents and Dr. P. J. Flynn re
duced the fracture.
The suffering of the little one was
extreme, but she is resting as well
as could be expected, considering
the nature of the injury.
Do Your Best.
Everyone should do all he can to
provide for his family and in order
to do this he must keep, his physical
system in the best condition pos
sible. No one can reasonably hope
to do much when he is half sick a
good share of the time. If you are
constipated, bilious or troubled with
indigestion get a package of Cham
berlain's Tablets and follow the
plain printed directions, and you
will soon be feeling alright and able
to do a day's work.
Neat printing is assured if you j
have it done at the Journal office.

CONTRACT FOR ROAD
WORK IS AWARDED
Three Different Firms Get Finger is
the Pie Work Scheduled to
Begin at Early Date.
rYotn Thursday's Iii.ily.
The .government aid road running
south out of this city to Nebraska
City is scheduled to receive atten
tion at an early date along the en
tire length of its course, some twenty-eight
or nine miles, the contract
having been let yesterday, three dif
ferent firms being successful bidders
for portions of the work.
This is the road leading out of
Plattsmouth on Chicago avenue, and
which formerly continued cast from
t lie United Drethren church a quar
ter of a mile, south a mile and back
west a mile, but has now been re
routed by the county board to run
three-quarters of a mile west from
the United Bethren church and
thence south to a point directly east
of Union, thereby doing away with
the quarter mile jog east and back.
The only possible objection to this
lies in the fact that there is a heavy
growth of trees at the church cor
ner, which makes it impossible to
see beyond the turn, but if the mo
torists will use caution and discre
tion in driving when they approach
this corner the number of accidents
for which it is noted can be reduced
to the minimum.
This road, when completed, will
make the Washington highway much
better than it has been in the past,
although the roads leading out of
Plattsmouth have been kept up un
usually well this spring. The fact
that it is a federal aid road insures
the improvements being up to snuff
in every respect and we tnay reason
ably expect good roads between here
and Nebraska City all summer long.
It. is expected that the improvement
work will begin not later than the
first of June.

Some time since James Smelly

here in the city and was released

parted for Murray, where he found
employment at the livery stable cf
li. C. Iihoden and when the robbery

Phillip Ke.il was a visiter in

is a part of his business. Some one

with a car and had secured some
rails to pry the car out. When the
job had been done the persou went
