BUSINESS MEN DIES
John Waterman, Familiar Figure
Here in Business for Fifty
Years, Passes Away
Frorr Tuesday's Dally.
Last night one of the pioneer bus
iness men of Plattsmouth passed to
his final reward John Waterman,
who has for the part year been in
very poor health and whose condi
ion in the last fev months has been
quite critical owin to the infirm
ities of his years, he being soma
eighty -Ary yars of age.
Jo'aa V.'cterman was bor:i iu Al
bany county. Xew York. March S.
1S36, and grew to manhood .in that
siate whero his father, I?. A. Water
man, was engaged in farming, and
in 1SG0 John Wiierman departed
for the west to seek his home in the
newer portion of the United State3
and located at Ottowa, Illinois, where
in 18-61 hi was tinHcd in marriage
to Miss Margaret Bla ;k, and tin?
family later removed to Buda. Cass
county. Ihinois, whore they resided
until Marh 2, 1870 wnen they re
moved to Plattsinoutl, Nebraska,
where Mr. Waterman and hi3 father
engaged in the lumber business, un
der the firm name of H. A. Water
man & Son and which continued un
til the death of the father and the
ojiness was then continued under
tht fame of John Walerrnin up to
a few years ago when failing health
compelled the retirement of the vet
eran lumber dealer and since which
time he hvl led a retired life at the
home. Mr. Waterman was the chief
mover in providing Plattsmouth
with a first class modern theatre
that was erected in the eighties on
the sight now occupied by the build
ing where the Journal, II. M. Soen
nlchsen and William Holly now
have their nstabli jhments, and this
theatre, the Waterman opera housi,
was considered one of the best in
the state. It was destroyed by fire
In 1892 and the present building er
ected on the site.
A gentleman of thet greatest cour
tesy, Mr. Waterman will be missed
from the life of the city in which he
was for fifty years an active figure
and his many acts of kindness to
all with whom he came in contact
will long b reniemtered. He leaves

terman, booh residing in this city
and one grandson, Earl Wagner of
Detroit, Michigan. The wife passed
away a number of years ago.
The funeral services will be held
at the late home Wednesday after
noon at 1:30 and the body laid to
rest at the Oak Hill cemetery.
In the sorrow that has come to
them the daughters and the grand
son will have the deep sympathy of
the entire community and of a large
circle of old friends om many years
standing.

own right; an unhealthy man an un

STORM AT UNION
BRINGSMIICH GRIEF
High Water From Weeping Watei
Creek Causes Tourists Trouble
In Getting Through
The heavy rains of Friday night
and Saturday dn and near Union has
caused a great deal of annoyance
and grief to the automobilists that
came through that portion of the
country and also to a large number
of the residents of the vicinity of
the overflowed Weeping Water creek.
There was 3 iccnes of rain on Fri
day night and Saturday and Sunday
added an additional inch to the flood
water that swept down from the
hills surrounding the Weeping Wa
ter valley and tho result was that
the bottoms west and south of Un
ion suffered a severe overflow. The
road from the village west to the
bridge near the pumping station, on
the west was covered by several feet
of water and the farmers were kept
busy towing autos through the small
sized lake to the higher land in the
town and from where the parties
could continue their journey. Some
200 cars were reported as being
brought in the town in the time ol
the overflow.
South of Union a number of the
farm houses were surrounded by wa
ter and the home of John Armstrong
had six -inches of water on the floor
of the 'ower rooms while between
the house and the .Missouri Pacific
tracks the wat6r was deep enough
to float a horse with ease. The homes
of W. H. Porter and Stephen Copen- j
haver were also sufferers from the
high water and the result was that
they found much difficulty In get
ting in and out of their homes. Tom
McQuinn lost a number of valuab'e
hogs through the effect of the high
water which was the worst for yea-
The home of II. L. Hansen was
unroofed by the storm Friday and
the whole interior of the house was
water soaked and the plastering as
well as a large part of th furnish
ings of the house were soaked dv
the water. , 3
