Scores were Jured, wire communication was para lyzed, transportation delayed and heavy property damage caused by a gale which swept the middlewest during the night. The wind, reaching a velocity of eighty miles an hour, was accom panied by snow, sleet and rain. In Chicago twenty were Injured. Thousands of Sunday night pleasure seekers were forced to remain down town when street car, elevated and automobile service was stalled. The storm covered the southwest ern wheat belt. The snow and rain was of great value to crcps in Kan sas, Oklahoma and Texas. here. The static disturbances ac companying the storm are still in the air and doubtless will remain until an area of lower barometric pressure sweeps over this section of the country.

From Wednesday's Dally The Missouri r(ver at this point which had been showing signs of the spring raise up to Sunday, has in the last two days been falling 'to some extent and the stream is about where it was before the first showing of high water. Colder weatner in tne north is thought to have checked the water and until warmer conditions not much change is looked for in the river. The Richardson family, who ; operate the ferry, have been watch ing since Sunday for the possible ap pearance of the two men who were reported as being swept off a bar in to the river but no trace of the men has been shown here. The men were swept into the river near Mondamin, Iowa, Sunday and if they were car ried down the river should have pass ed the ferry landing here sometime Sunday afternoon. Omaha, March 12. Blizzards play ed havoc with wire communication in all directions from Omaha Sun day night.. The storm, originating In the Rockies, due to adverse air currents, did no particular damage in Ne braska. The worst havoc was wrought in eastern Iowa, western Illinois and in the vicinity of Kan sas City and Topeka. The American Telephone and Telegraph company reported all their trunk lines to Chi cago had failed. A heavy wet snow accompanied by heavy kinds prostrated wires in the vicinity of Kansas City and Topeka. Several thousand poles were reported down in that territory. Des Moines also reported a heavy wet snow that was snapping poles to the eastward, between there and Davenport, The greatest fury of the storm ap parently was in the Mississippi val ley. Such widely separated places as St. Paul. San Antonio, New Orleans and San Francisco were reported shut off from communication with Omaha. A snow storm and blizzard hit Chi cago Sunday night. Memphis also reported a severe storm. NOT SO BAD From Wednesdays Dally. ! There has been more or less discus sion of the effect of the unsettled condition of affairs the past year on property value but the fact remains that Plattsmouth property is still bringing a very good price. J. P. Fal ter, the real estate man, a few days ago made a sale of a part of the Bauer property at Seventh and Vine street 59x60 to the Standard Oil Co., for a filling station and which brot $4,500, so that is not so bad after all and indicates that the general effect of the times are getting better and better every day. GIVES FINE SERMON From Wednesday's Dally Last evening at the St. Luke's Episcopal church the Very Rev. Ste phen McGinley, dean of the Trinity cathedral of Omaha, was present and delivered the sermon of the evening. The dean took as his subject "Love" and compared the love of the mother for her child tothe tender love of the Master for those who believed in Him and had carried on His work. The address which is one of the series of sermons of the Lenten season, was enjoyed by a very large congrega-, tion and was more than usually in-' spiring to the members of the church. Snow began falling in Plattsmouth about midnight Sunday, but due to the warm atmosphere it rapidly melt ed away and little is left at this time. Several hours before that It was known by radio owners that a storm was in progress over the coun try. Failure to receive Davenport's program Sunday night properly in dicated something was. wrong in that direction, and the same was the case with nearly every broad casting station usually heard clearly Judge W. G. Hastings, of Omaha, was appointed Judge of the district court by Governor Bryan Monday. The appointment is to take effect im mediately. Julge Hastings wns not an a;j:i)icant for the plr.ee, the gov ernor s;iid. Jle has sine? Indicated his willingness to accept, however. The appointee is widely known in j Nebraska. He formerly lived at Wilber and for ten years wa3 judge 'of the district court. He served four years as one of the commissioners of the supreme court of Nebraska, in aiding that court to hear and de termine suits. For ten years he was dean of the universit college of law at Lincoln and for a short time dur ing the war when Chancellor Avery was in the service, was acting chan cellor of the university. Judge Hastings removed to Omaha from Lincoln ahoul two years ago to re-enter the practice of law as a , member of the firm of Hastings. Rit chie & Canaday. He is an uncle of Senator George B. Hastings of Grant, Nebraska. Governor Bryan received more than half a dozen applications. Daily he received calls in person, by tele phone and otherwise from friends of applicants, but after spending more time than any other governor ever spent in hearing a similar case, he went entirely outside, of the record and appointed a man who was not an applicant. j It is said the appointment will be disappointing to many friends of ap plicants, but that the bar of the district are highly pleased at the re- , suit. Judge Hastings Is sixty-nine years of age. -In the distant past when Judges ran for office on partisan tickets he was a democrat. Prior to his leaving the university law col lege his connection as an attorney with the language law suit, now pending in the United States su preme court, was the subject of com ment by some newspapers.
