Last evening the review of the W.
B. A. of the Maccabees held a very
pleasant meeting at the M. W. A.
hall and which was very largely at
tended and one of the most delight
ful that the order has held in a num
ber of weeks.
The review had as their guest,
Mrs. Delia Hall of Fremont, state
commander of the order and who,
with the assistance of the degree
team conducted the initiation cere
monies that received the six new
members of the order into the re
view. The ritualistic work was ex
plained by Mrs. Hall in a very fine
manner and the ladies felt well re
paid for their attendance in the op
portunity of meeting the state com
mander. As delegate to the state conven
tion of the order to be held on May
29 at Grand Island, Mrs. J. H. Mc
Maken was named as delegate and
Mrs. C. P. Richards as the alternate.
During the business session the la
dies made plans for the next meeting
in April which will be marked by a
program and parcel post sale and
which it is hoped to make one of the
most interesting of the season.
Following the business features,
the ladies enjoyed a social hour with
conversation and the dainty refresh
ments provided by the hostesses, Mes
dames W. K. Krecklow, II. W. Smith
and Miss Mary Peterson.

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.
