near Union, was sitting in her spring
wagon, which stood endwise out into the
street, with the horses tied to a post at
the sidewalk. A 'heavy wason came
along, a wheel caught the rear of the
wagon in which Mrs. Dawson sat, jerk
- ing it in such a manner as to throw her
to the ground. She was able to rise to
her feet and was helped into Mr. Dress
ler's shop and Dr. Hall was called. An
cxaminatic n showed a severe bruise on
the left breast and the patient suffered
much pain. Medicine was given and
after about an hour's treatment the lady
was able to start home. A sun accom
panied her, and they intended to go
about four miles last evening to a friend's
where the night would be spent.

THE HOTEL QUE8TION
Understandings Reached and Fine
Hotel Promised as a Sure
Thing
Theiiotcl problem which has agitated
the citizens of Plattsiuouth for some time
seems to be about solved, and a $25,000
hotel will be erected the coming summer.
Although the prospect for a satisfactory
arrangement for the building seemed to
darken and drop last week, the mist has
now cleared away, and the matter has
been brought to a condition that Mr.
Riley can erect a hotel in the fulfillment
of his lust proposition.
The effort to secure the Presbyterian
church lot and give it to Mr. Riley, of
Omaha, provided he would erect the
hotel, failed. Last week, it seems, he
m ule the proposition to par $2,500 for
the lot. and put up the hotel as contem
plated, if the citizens would pay the rest;
and Monday night the Presbyterians de
cided to take $3,500 f.r the church lot-
leaving $1,000 to be raised by the citi
.ens. This amount had already been
subscribed, and last night at the board
of trade meeting, a committee, J. W.
Johnson, was authorized to close
contract of the lot with Mr. Riley,
cording to his last proposition; so
hotel seems to be au insured benefit.

the
Other business of a miscellaneous nature
was transacted at the board meeting, but
the hotel was the principal movement of
general interest.

Sh Looked Into Heaven.
Mrs. Charles Collins arrived at
Chapman villo with the remains of ber
msband, who had died at Kinzua.
bo attended the funeral and immedi
ately afterwards was taken danger
ously ill and apparently died. Twelve
hours after her supposed death Mrs
Collins showed signs of animation.
Two hours later she was sitting up
conversing with her friends. She re
lated a marvelous experience. She
said that her soul had left her body
during her comatose state and gone
straight to heaven. She saw the
Saviour, she saidt and the wonderful
maguificenco of his surroundings were
too wonderful to be expressed in
words. "All that I have seen," said
Mrs. Collins, "I can never reveal, but
I know that I was dead. I know that
I went to heaven and my eyes beheld
the glories of the Lord. Oh, why
didn't you let me alone? I don't want
to live hero now, knowing' what un
speakable glories are up there." Mrs.
Collins is 38 years of age and of more
than ordinary intelligence. She told
her remarkable story calmly and
earnestly, and honestly lamented that
she had returned to earth again. Mrs.
Collins is positive that it was not a
dream nor a vision, but that her soul
wes transported to heaven. Franklin

What He Need
What is needed to help the average
daiiyman is the information how to
improve the herd already in his hands.
Ho needs to bo taught to test each cow
separately, both for quantity and for
quality, and to have the nerve to dis-
Coso of the non-paying ones, while
uilding on those which turn him a
profit He needs to know that like
produces like in the animal as well as
in the vegetable world ; that good ani
mals produce good offspring, and poor
ones as certainly bring forth poor pro
geny that the male is half the herd in
breeding,, and that he cannot expect
to improve his herd without a good
sire ; that although a grade male may
be better than a scrub, a pure bred
male is better than either; that the
greater and more rapid improvement
which he produces makes him cheaper
in the end at a good round price than
cither the scrub pr the grade as a gift;
and that it i3 only by weeding out poor
cows and breeding from his hest ones,
from a pure blood male of individual
excellence and good pedigree, that lie
can in a few years bring his . herd up
to an average yield of 1500 pounds of
butter per cow. Prairie Farnier.
