AN INCIDENT OF
OLD ROCK BLUFFS
Vrank of the Besidents There on
Late Judge Ramsey Recalled
at Eeunion Meeting.
The reunion of former residents of
the once prosperous town of Rock
Bluffs at the old settlers picnic near
Union Friday and Saturday of last
week, recalls an amusing anecdote
which the Plattsmouth News told
Bbout the old village twenty years
tgo.
In 1S72 Rock Bluffs was one of
the most Important towns In Cass
county. It was the seat of the two
best schools there the public school
and the Naomi institute. B. S. Ram
sey was principal of the former and
Prof. "Joseph D. Patterson was su
perintendent of the latter.
The most prominent citizens then
were Patterson, Walker and Joseph
Shera, general merchandise and
grain Dr. Reed, the leading physic
Ian, later of Peru; Henry Craig, the
leading carpenter; Henry Clopper,
the principal boot and shoe maker;
Azro Smith, who made a specialty of
gardening; W. W. Graves, who man
ufactured brick and brickwork, and
"Bill" Jones, who dealt largely in
horses.
Nearly every church denomination
was represented. The people of
Rock Bluffs were noted for their hos
pitality and were particularly fond
of religiously observing the custom
of Hallowe'ening.
Hallowe'en, 1872, was a memor
able one for the town and more
particularly for Ramsey, the school
master. When he went to the school
house the morning after the night of
pranks, he was unable to believe his
eyes. A horse presided over the desk
as teacher, straw and forage were
strewn over the floor and the walls
were washed with a bad smelling
chemical. Everything was in dis
order. Ramsey was furious. He went
home to his sister and told her about
the prank. But he could not find out
who had played the trick. His sis
ter advised him to curb his wrath
and keep mum about the matter.
Ramsey did. He grabbed a broom, a
6hovel and unconsciously humming
to himself the old familiar tune,
"Praise God from Whom All Bless
ings Flow," preceded to repair all
the damage done
"To the old school house
That Hallowe'en night;
By Staffod's old horse.
The school board. Doctor
j and Ike."
J It came to light in 1901 that those
who perpetrated the mischief were
members of the school board and
other leading citizens of the town.
The horse they used was an animal
about forty years old, belonging to a
citizen named Stafford. Nebraska

ENTERTAINS FRIENDS
Frow Saturdays Dally
Yesterday, Mrs. R. A. Bates was
hostess to a very pleasant 1 o'clock
luncheon given in honor of a num
ber of friends from Omaha who were
here for the day and the occasion was
one that was thoroughly enjoyed by
the ladies in attendance.
The appointments of the luncheon
were carried out in the Golden Glow
as floral decorations and made a
beautiful setting for the most en
joyable event. Following the lunch
eon the ladies spent the time in visit
ing and a general social time until
the return of the Omaha members of
the party to the metropolis. The in
vited guests were: Mesdames V.

BASEBALL TOURNA-
MENT SUGGESTED
FOR THIS CITY SOON
Excellent Showing of the Plattsmouth
Team Causes Fans to Wish
For Big Meet.
From Saturday's Daily
Now that the baseball season of
1924 is on its last legs and ere long
the kings of swat will have faded
from the landscape to be replaced by
the knights of the pigskin, the fans
have wakened the thought of having
a fitting final to the season in a real
i baseball tournament.
I The Plattsmouth team this year is
'one of the best that has worn a
; Plattsmouth uniform in the past
I twenty year9 and their showing
I against some of the best teams in the
j eastern part of Nebraska has certain
ly been one of the revelations of the
J season and they will make worthy
opponents of any teams that can be
brought here.
The holding of a tournament will
be a worthy compliment to the Platts
mouth team and the opportunity for
j the fans to see some real ball games
here at the close of the season. The
project will require some financial
support but the cost to each of the
fans would not be great to get the
tournament started and the receipts
from the games should make the af
fair a financial success and give ev
eryone a chance to enjoy the games
at a small cost.
There are a number of teams here
that could well stage a very success
ful four or eight team tournament
and be on? cf the real events in
baseballdom of this part of the state.
Of the teams available there is a
chance to get some of the best, Ne
braska City. Louisville. Springfield,
Glenwood, Millard. Bellevue, Union,
Greenwood and Ashland are some of
the teams in this vicinitj- that would
be good timber for the tournament
and in addition to these Auburn and
Falls City could be included as they
are strong teams.
The previous tournaments held
here have been great successes and
there is no reason why one this year
should not be equaly a winner. The
fans and boosters of the local team
should give the matter thought and
see that the suggestion is brought to
a realization this fall.
AVIATOR HAS TROUBLES
From Saturday's Daily
Andy Nielsen, one time minister
and later aviator, and who was here
at Plattsmouth at different times
staging air excursions, is having a
great deal of trouble in getting his
matrimonial affairs settled and his
perils in hi3 married life have been
far greater than those he encoun
tered in the air when he was flit
ting around with the planets and
stars. The first episode of his trou
bles was when the wife sued him for
divorce and the other complications
have since followed.
She was awarded a decree March
2. 1923, with custody of their two
children. He was ordered to pay $000
at the rate of ?25 a month and also
alimony of $75 a month. On August
2, 1924. she says he was in arrears
to the extent of SI, 083. CO. She says
he refuses to make payments and is
contemptuous and insulting in his at
titude toward the court.
The last chapter has been In re
questing the court to have the bird
man caged because of his failure to
come through with the necessary ali
mony. LOCATING IN PLATTSMOUTH
From Saturday's Daily
Charles Nelson, well known over
the eastern portion of Cass countv
as "The Red Ball Medicine Man,"
and who makes a specialty of hand
ling medicine for the relief of suf
fering mankind, has decided that he
will in the future be a resident of
this city and accordingly this week
moved from his home at Nehawka to
this city where he i3 now located and
from where he will conduct his ac
tivities. Mr. Nelson is well pleased
with the city and believes he has hit
the ideal home town of the state to
reside in.
SOME POTATOES
From Saturday's Dailr
The champion all around freak
potato of the crop of 1924 was brot
to the Journal office today by John
McNurlin, who secured the uber
from the farm of W. H. Seybert,
northwest of this city. The potato
is of large size and has growing from
the parent potato twelve junior po
tatoes, some of which are almost as
large as the parent tuber. The com
bination potato weighs two and three
eighths pounda and it is a real curio
sity.
Hillard Grassman and wife depart

they will spend the day with rela
tives and where Mr. Grassman will
have some dental work looked after.
Karl Roessler of Chicago will ar
rive tomorrow morning to enjoy a

FIRST BAND CON
CERT OF SEASON
HELD LAST NIGHT
Eagles Band Gives Opening Offering
of the Season at Court House
Lawn Last Night.
From Thursday's Dally
The first of the scries of open air
concerts for the late summer season
held under the auspices of the city
and given by the Eagles band, was
held last night at the lawn on the
south side of the Cass county court
house and despite the fact that the
opening concert had been hurriedly
organized and arranged, quite a
large number were present.
The concert had only one really
disagreeable feature the Restless
Motorist, who was not sure whether
he wanted to stay and hear the con
cert and proved a disturbing factor
to a considerable extent, keeping
many of the spectators from hearing
the music in a really enjoyable man
ner as the noise detracted from the
music, but this is something that is
hard to escape so long as the ton
certs are held adjacent to a street
on which traffic is permitted.
The program was well arranged
and selected and served to entertain
all classes of music lovers and offend
the always popular selections, "In a
Woodland Glade" and the number
troni "Torquato Taso," as well as a
late Fox trot, "Linger Longer."
The committee in charge of the
concerts and the Nebraska Gas and
Electric company did some hurry up
work yesterday afternoon in getting
the lights strung for the use of the
band and it is expected to stage the
concerts at the court house in the
future on Wednesday evenings as
this seems a more convenient point.
Many of the citizens have sug
gested that there should be a more
effective method of curbing the acti
vities of the children during the
concerts as the noise was so loud
last night as to be a real annoy
ance not only to those who wished
to enjoy the music, but to the band
members themselves. It has also
been suggested that a part of the
streets be roped off so as to elimi
nate the noise of traffic.
RETURN FROM ASSEMBLY
From Thursday's DeJly
Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Wiles and
daughter, Mary Catherine, and Miss
Marguerite Wiles, who has been in
attendance at the Epworth Assembly
at Lincoln for the past ten days have

sembly management had 100 cot
tages at their disposal near the lake
on the assembly grounds and the
Wiles family were fortunate in se
curing one of these fine cottages
during their stay at the. park. This
year's program was exceptionally
strong in the speaking line, with
Bishop Nicholson and Bishop Keeney
as the speakers and including also
lecturers from the India and China
mission fields and a very attractive
musical program, including the Rus
sian Cathedral quartet and many
other high class acts.
ENJOYING VISIT HERE
Fred Schafer of Ferguson, Nebras
ka, who has been in Omaha deliver
ing two cars of cattle to the market
there, took advantage of the nearness
to drop down and visit the old Cass
county friends and with the mem
bers of his family, including his
mother, Mrs. Mary Schafer, and his
brothers, A. J., Otto and Philip Sch
afer and at the C. C. Hennings homo.
Fred has been away from Cass coun
ty for a number of years and was
very much pleased with the excel

From a Plattsmouth Citizen Who

If so there is danger in delay.
Weak kidneys get weaker fast.
Give your trouble rrompt atten

Doan's Tills are for weak kidneys.
Your neighbors use and recom

now proprietor of the eoft drink par

are bothered with disordered kid
neys because of the fumes of the tur

my kidneys when I have had inside
work to do. I have naa to get up
as often as every hour of the night
to pass the secretions. Sometimes
when going up or down the ladder,
I had sharp stitches take me in my
kidneys that felt like needles. I
have always found Doan's Pills a

BAD THRESHING
MACHINEMCIDENT
Jay Boberts and Vic Sowards Pinned
Between Engine and Separator
Eeceives Painful Injuries.
Tuesday morning, while Jay Rob
erts, Vic Sowards and George Wall
inger were moving a threshing out
fit, Mr. Roberts and Mr. Sowards
were pinned between the engine and
separator and received painful in
juries, Mr. Roberts being confined
to his home and bed as a result of
his injuries.
In the afternoon the writer and
wife drove out to their homes to
get the details. Mr. Sowards was
not at home but we found Mr. Rob
erts in bed and suffering intense
pain. When asked how it all hap
pened he told us in substance that
he and the two other men were mov
ing the threshing outfit along the
highway near the old John King
farm, northeast of Ashland, when
they came to a bridge and as the
front wheels of the engine went onto
the bridge the bank gave way. The
engine was stopped and after look
ing over the situation they decided
not to try to pull the separator across
with the engine. It was necessary
fob ack up the engine to get enough
slack to uncouple. The approach to
the bridge was uphill and before
releasing the separator the rear
wheels were blocked and also the
drivers of the engine. The separator
being uncoupled and the blocking
done. Mr. Roberts went to the en
gine throttle to start the engine to
pull across. What then happened
came so quickly that he is not very
clear about it.
He might have left the engine in
reverse or the wheel blocking gave
way anyhow the engine went back
ward into the separator and both he
and Mr. Sowards were pinned be
tween the two pieces of machinery.
Mr. Roberts received painful cuts
and bruises about his right leg and
he was unable to move it when we
were at his home. He was also suf
fering intense pain in hi3 stomach.
Mr. Sowards received painful bruis
es about his right leg also, but he
remained up and around during the
rest of the day. Mr. Wallinger was,

not injured and assisted all he could
in releasing the other two men.
The reports from Mr. Roberts as
we go to press are very encouraging
and if he continues to improve as he
has today he will soon be able to be
about his work again. It was a very
close call for both of the men. Ash
