LUGSCH IMPROVING From Wednesday's Daily The reports here today from the Methodist hospital in Omaha state that Mrs. Fred Lugsch, who was op erated on their Monday evening for an acme case ot appendicitis, is now showing very pleasing progress and it is hoped that in the next few days she may be well on the highway to improvement. The case of Mrs Lugsch was a very serious one and she was taken to the hospital just in time as the appendix was in very bad shape and a few hours delay would probably have resulted very seriously for the patient. Under the present condition it is hoped to have her on the highway to improvement in a very short time.

To the new members of the city government Mr. Sattler express ed his heartiest good wishes and that the citizens of the community had entrusted them with the duties of government and while they could not please everyone they should do what they considered for the best interests of the city.
