Visited Neighboring Church The Pilgrim had a very delightful visit at the Callahan church last Sunday, the Sunday school has an unusual attendance 14 S being pre sent. We enjoyed the privilege of teaching the adult class of which Mr. Albert Streich, is the teacher, we had a wonderful session, and only hope for another occosion to be with these dear people. The preaching service that follow ed was of an high order. The digni fied and solemn way in which it wa? conducted, lifted the audience into a higher atmosphere, brought, them near tc the throne of Grace. The singing was spirited and full of life the special number by a ladies quar tett, deserves of special mention. The sermon, based on Mark 2,74 3S showed much thought and a clear understanding of the fourfold at tack by the enemies of Christ, anc' how he successfully repulsed the discomfited, and in perplexity, they knew not what to do, with a man that -knew more about God, his lawr and human life, than they did. God looks upon values different, than man does, not wealth, power, fame o greatness of any kind counts with the Lord, but character, involved in the image of Jesus Christ, find the ap probation of God. Thin ended another glorious day! Dr. S. B. MacDiarnid and family spent Sunday at the home of L. Nei zel. The Dr. having just returnee1 from a two weeks business trip thru the east, had a thrilling story to re tale about Richmond. Boston, Nev York, Cleoclan, Detroit, Philadephir and other places; but for the Dr there is no place like where the west is at her best Nebraska. Mrs. L. Neizel entertains the Ladies Aid Society this week at her home. FREAK LETTERS TO SMITH New York, July 27. Freak re quests reaching him by mail are causing Governor Smith to wonder if some folks think he has money, either his own or campaign funds of the democrats, to give away. A Nebraskan has tried to interest him in the purchase of a 3,200 acre farm. From the south has come a request from a man for $1,500 to go to Mexico for his health. Some young chap has broached the nominee the suggestion that he give him $1,000 to go to college, and an earnest plea has been received from an elderly woman in the west for funds to pur chase a home. , A portion of the mail reaching Governor Smith since his nomina tion has sought to interest him in one kind of a project or another, sometimes simply to purchase rare coins or antiques, but the nominee is giving such communications scant attention. NEGRO MAY BE DISBARRED Jaskson, Miss., July 25. A com mittee to report to chancery court here on the question of instituting disbarment proceedings against Perry W. Howard, negro national repub lican committeeman from Mississippi and several associates for their part in the federal patronage scandal re vealed by a grand jury at Biloxi a week ago, was appointed here today by Chancellor V. J. Strieker. ' The investigation was directed at Howard, S. D. Redmond, A. M. Red mond and W. L. Mhoon, all negroes and members of the Jackson bar Mhoon is Howard's law partner. Howard and the Redmond brothers were indicted with Ed L. Patton, a negro republican leader of Jackson and R. Scott Hubbard, suspended de puty United States marshal or. Biloxi ' for conspiring to violate the law pro hibiting sale of public office in con-j nection with the appointment of A.! P.

As we are shipping a car every week, we must have more poultry. See us before selling as we are paying HIGHEST PRICES for your Poultry. Don't forget! A large volume means higher prices for your poultry, so bring it to the old reliable buyer just across the street from Wescott's. George W. Olson South 5th St., Plattsmouth Hoover Chances Said to Be Good Republican Leaders for North Caro lina Are Confident That Ticket Will Carry the State Washington, July 27. Republican leaders of North Carolina were called into conference today by Chairman Work of the national committee and they reported a "most encouraging prospect" of Herbert Hoover carrying the state. Charles A. Jonas, republican na tional committeeman for the old north state of the democratic solid south, reported that for the first time in history the republicans had a complete organization in every county and district. He asked for no drive by the national commit tee in the south, and said. Dr. Work planned none. He added that only co-operation was necessary. This seems to be the policy in the minds of the republican chief tains who have been advised to let the south do its own work. Jonar and his two companions on the cap ital trip, Brownlaw Jackson, chair man of the republican state com mittee, and Stewart W. Cramer Charlotte textile manufacturer asked that Serator Curtis, the vice presi dential candidate, be sent into the state to speak, but otherwise they made no pleas for help. Jonas said he did not expect Sen ator Simmons of North Carolina, whr recently resigned without explana tion as democratic national commit teeman, to work against Smith anf his party. Senator Smoot, of Utah, veteran party leader, was another caller at national headquarters tod;y. He ha.c been in Washington and New Yorh almost entirely since the convention He reported he had "no doubt what ever of the outcome." and predicted Hoover would carry New York. State Journal. WANT CUTTING ON RECORD Albuquerque, N. M., July 25. The Albuquerque Herald says that James G. McNary, chairman of the republi can state executive committee, at a meeing of the state central committee in Santa Fe suggested that Senator Bronson Cutting be asked to declare that he is a republican and pledge himself to the support of the princi ples of the republican party before the republican state convention can consistently nominate him to succeed himself in the United States senate Colonel Cutting was appointed tr the senate early this year to succeed the late Senator A. A. Jones, a de mocrat. The appointment was made by Governor Dillon, a republican Mr. Cutting is propriator of the Santa Fe New Mexican. The Journal quotes McNary as declaring that Cutting Is eminently fitted for the senatoria1 office, "but since his appointment he has made no statement as to his par ty affiliations, but has been given nation-wide publicity as a man who is entirely independent of party lines anil who recognized obligations tc no party. BANK ROBBED OF $22,000 Cincinnati, July 25. Two un masked men armed with revolvers en tered the West wood Bank and Savings company today, hung a "closed" sign on the door and robbed the teller of $22,000 in currency. Walter A. Sch neider, teller, was alone in the bank when the men walked In. The rob bers fled in an automobile. Winner, .S. IX, July 25. An at tempted holdup of the Farmers' State Bank of Witten was thwarted at 8 a. m. today by Warren Rahn, cash ier and manager of the bank, who smelling clgaret smoke as he entered the building, found twomen iu the rear room robbing the bank.

Begley Visits Eagle Beacon Office Wednesday and Tells of Progress. Judge Jas. T. Begley was In Eagle Wednesday and paid this office a very pleasant call. Very naturally our interest in the Missouri" river bridge at Plattsmouth caused us to make minute inquiry regarding the progress of the project. Judge Beg lex being one of the original pro moters of the enterprize has been a very helpful factor in bringing the project to its present advanced stage. He informs us they have met with a temporary delay in the location of the structure, and the matter is now before the War department at Wash ington for adjustment. It seems that the site desired is something like 300 feet below the present Burlington railroad bridge, while the regula tions of the War department require that the new bridge must be placed within 100 feet of the present struc ture, or a much greater distance, in order to facilitate river boat trans portation, which is to be resumed on the Missouri. He tells us the finan cial arrangements are complete and had it not been for this one hitch actual construction would now be in progress. This bridge when completed will be a big thing for Cass county much greater than many of our peo ple realize, and the progressive men who are pushing the enterprise will some time receive the thanks of those of lesser vision who are now so enthusiastic. Eagle Beason. Chicago Her ald and Exam iner Robbed Three Holdup Men Gain Access to Press Room and Escape With $7,000. Chicago, July 27. Three bandits. armed with a sawed off shotgun, to night entered the Herald and Exam iner newspaper offices, cowed a po liceman, a paymaster and two pay masters' clerks and escaped with be tween $6,000 and $7,000. The money was to be paid to pressrom employ es, and consisted of currency of small denominations. The robbery took place as Pay master A. S. Voncolin entered his guarded office. Inside were Police man George Larson, and Clerks David F. O'Shea and Martin Kelly. Close on Voncolin's heels, as he turned to shut the door, came the three bandits. One of them tore open a pasteboard box, producing from it a short shotgun. He flourished it and ordered the three newspaper employes to lie down. The other two snatched the money from Voncolin and fled while the first covered their escape with the gun. Passersby on the street saw two men Jump into an open touring car and speed away. No one could be found who saw the other flee. . Four detective bureau squads were immediately dispatched on patrol. The Herald and Examiner building stands at the west side of the loop on Madison street, even at night one of the busiest streets in the city. The method employed by the rob bers was said by police to be simi lar to that used June 6 in the hold up of the Detroit News. In that robbery, however, a pistol battle with police occurred, while tonight not a shot was fired. State Journal.

The fight ended with Tunney's de licate face turned In a silent plea to Forbes to save him the necessity of slugging a helpless and mutilated man further.
