Mrs. Joe Elmwood Busi ness Houses are Burglarized Four Places Visited by Robbers Last Night But Loss Mostly Small Change. From Tuesday's Daily Last night the town of Elmwood suffered a visit from burglars that made visitations at four places in the town but failed to secure any large amount of money and only a small loss in articles taken from the L. II. Crane, general store, the former L. II. Langhorst store. The robberies were not discovered until this morning when the various places opened for the day's business t and which has allowed the parties j pulling off the robberies to make thThXes' S y hours before, ed comprised the Boyd mill, the Missouri Pacific sta tion, the J. II. Ruge lumber yard, the Liston filling station and the Crane general store, the last being the heaviest sufferer from the visita- In all of the places the parties get-'pulling on the robberies nail mad? their entrance by means of breakin; windows and thereby getting into the interior of the places and ransacking them evidently in search of money, In several of the nlaees small amount? of change had been left in the reg isters and which was appropriated by the robbers, but in no case was the amounts taken large, reports from Elmwood state. When the robbers visited the Crane store they took a number of shirt? and also canned goods and foodstuffs from the stock. There was little disturbance in the robberies and the residents of the town peacefully slumbered through the looting, there being no signs of noise of trucks heard or seen and it is thought that it may have been the work of tramps who were following ('own the Lincoln line of the Missouri Pacific. " Several nights ago the town of Eagle was visited by a similar occur rence and. which lends strength tc the Idea that it "may have been the work of tramps or hoboes who were making their way along the railroad and replenishing their supply of money and food with raids on the smaller towns that they were passing through. The robbery was not reported un til late this morning to Sheriff Bert Reed, who with Deputy Sheriff Rex Young, motored to the scene of ac tion to see if some line could be se cured on the robbers. CONSOLE ON DISPLAY From Tuesday's Dally The show window at the Warga hardware store has been the center of attraction for hundreds of the lo cal people yesterday afternoon and today, as there is displayed in the window the console or keyboard of the new $10,000 "VYurlitzer organ that is being installed in the Parmele theatre and which will soon be in service at this beautiful place of en tertainment and amusement. The keyboard gives one the full idea of the organ a great deal better than the printed word can do, the size of the instrument, the many keys and the effects that can be produced from the great instrument are plain to the eye of the beholder. The pipe organ has become one of the most popular musical instruments in the country at this time and with the great strides of the motion pic ture symphonies of the organ giving a wonderful setting to the silent drama that it has not had heretofore. The Parmele will have a real or gan in the instrument that they have in readiness for installing and which in the next two weeks will thrill and delight the amusement loving public of the community and the eastern portion of the state who will find here as fine a theatre as any city in the state outside of the large cities provides.

Beauty Place of State is the Masonic Home Landscaping Has Added Much to the Surroundings of the Magnificent Residence of Aged. When the travelers through this city pass along the John R. Webster boulevard at the northern boundary of the city on the approach to the graveled highway that leads to Oma ha and the north, which is also a gateway to our own attractive city, they are strikingly impressed with the beauty of the Home that the great Masonic fraternity lias estab lished here for the care of the aged members of the order and of the Eastern Star, who can find there rest ami comfort as the shadows of life fall into the sunset years. The large brick building that has been the main portion of the Home 'since its enlargement in 1906, has been added to by the handsome grey stone Gothic structure that forms the infirmary building where are cared for the sick and bedfast, where they are surrounded by all of the comforts of their own home with the careful care and nursing that skilled hands can give. These two magnificent buildings have been added to by the fact that in the past year the board of control and President James M. Robertson have worked out, with the assistance of Superintendent W. F. Evers, a truly artistic plan of landscaping the grounds and making the surround ings of the Home in fitting keeping with the great buildings that repre sent one of the principles of the order of Masonary the care of the aged and the afflicted. From the Webster boulevard there iu seen on the greensward of the terrace a great letter "G" writh the compass that stands as the emblem of the order and gives to the passer by the message that here is a Masonic institution. Along the south and the east of the Home grounds there is planted a hedge of the barberry bush that is fast growioe? into an important part of the decorative plan of the grounds while on the north of the driveway through the grounds and along the boulevard spirea hedge has been planted that in a few years will add with their beautiful flowers to the general beauty of the grounds. In the decorations of the grounds along the driveways and grouped artistical ly through the grounds there are some thirty varieties of the shrubs some of which have been supplied from the United States experiment plant, new and beautiful specimens of the shrubbery of the nation. Along the boulevard of the city park board has planted rows of the Moline Elms that in a few more years will be of a size to afford shade and make the drive one of the finest in the state. Over the grounds there are large groups of the rarest and most beauti ful varieties of roses, many of which have bloomed throughout the sum mer and are still adding their bright hues to the green lawn. On the south of the main building there are large groups of the shrubf and interspersed with these are the flowering plants that make the gen eral artistic effect of the lawn and when the summer flowering season is on, the scene is one that thrills the eye of the lover of the beautiful. The view from the west approach of the Home is one of the most rav ishing wealth of color as the bright hued petunias and gladiolas are here in abundance and line the walks that lead around the Home, teihr flowers making the late summer season a wealth of beauty. Throughout the Home ground? there are a large variety of trees of different types, several varieties of the pine, fir, walnut. Colorado blue spruce, several varieties of elm, oak ash, maple, hackberry and haw. To the north of the Home there Is the orchard, now coming into bear ing, and which was planted some seven years ago by Superintendent Evers, when he first took over the superintendency of the Home, while east of this is the vegetable garden, shielded from the driveways and the boulevard by the shrubs of the hedges. The garden plot also has a magnificent gladiolia garden where large bouquets of these flowers are gathered each day for the use in the Home to add to the brightness and cherriness of the rooms. On a part of the east side of Web ster boulevard there is long rows of "Four O'Clocks." that late in the evening and early in the morning are a wealth of color and with their fragrance make a fine touch against the green of their background. After the beauty of the grounds which grows greater each year, one is prepared to appreciate the cozy and comfortable manner that the Home and infirmary and which is a real treat to behold. It has been the desire of the Ma sons that the establishment be what f it is called, "a home" in every sense! of the term and which the board of control. President Robertson and Superintendent Evers have done their, utmost to make it live up to the; (Continued on Page 6) SUES FOR DAMAGE From Monday's Dally In the district court at Lincoln an action has been started in which Harold Hulfish, a former resident of Elmwood and vicinity is the plaintiff against the Krause, Cornish Roofing Co.

From Wednesday's Daily The officers of the Plattsmouth State bank of this city have taken action to fill the vacancy in the clerical force of the bank made va cant by ti e resignation of Kenneth Katerson, naming to the clerkship Ernest L. Trumble, one of the best known and popular young men of the western part of Cass county. Mr. Trumble has had a number of years experience in the banking busi ness with the Bank of Eagle and also the First National bank of Greenwood and his recommendations from these institutions has been the very highest and an assurance of hi3 efficiency. Mr. Trumble has been en gaged in business for several years at Eagle and is a young man well qualified for his new work. The bank has had a number of very able applicants for the position in the bank, but the high recom mendations of Mr. Trumble from his employers, business associates and friends have led the bank to select him to come here to take up his work. The Plattsmouth State is one of the strong banks of the county and has resources of $1,233,000 and rankf high among the state banks of this part of the state, which led Mr. Trumble to wish experience in this larger financial institution.

Mr. Trumble will take up the duties of his new position on Sep tember 1st which will give him time to arrange his affairs at Eagle. THINK WORK OF EXPERTS From Wednesday s Daily Sheriff Bert Reed and Deputy Sheriff W. R. Young returned last evening from Elmwood where they were called to investigate the rob beries that occurred there on Mon day night and from their observa tions of the work of the robbers it would seem that they were more ex perts in their line than first appear ed. The parties seem to have openef two safes in the places visited, at the Crane store and the lumber yard while at the mill they broke off the dial of the safe and completely ruin ed the safe. At the filling station and the garage the robbers broke the cash registers but in none of the places secured anything of value their total not being over two dol lars. Sheriff Bert Reed had the state finger print expert come from Lin coln, but no traces of prints were found, the parties having apparently worn gloves to cover their leaving any finger prints, this leading to the view that they were not unskilled in this line of work.
