By June first all lota alone the old
creek beds most be raised to the estab
lished grade. It is true it will take a
great deal of dirt to do this, but to open

positing ground will be needed.

II. F. Dean, formerly of Ashland,
And other parties have formed an organi
zation to be known as the "Guilt Edge
Manufacturing Company," for the manu
facture of windmills. Last month C. A.
Wooslev. of Greenwood, acting as their
. j - - ...
azenf, secured building ground and
guarantee of $3,000 from the citkeos of
f.lnmlin to have the company locate
there.
The steam elevator located in the
north part of the B. & M. yards is being
torn down. It was erected about lSfl
but during the last two years has been
idle and the owners, J. T. & M. Morrissey,
are moving it t Lincoln to erect it again
ne r the fair grounds. T'e B. & M.
company wants the ground where the
elevator stands for yard room, we under
stand. The countv commissioners are out
on an investigating tour of all Cas
county bridges, crossings and culvert?,
and are accompanied by C. D. Douglas,
of Pawnee City, who has been awarded
the contract for all bridge building in
Cass county this year. There have been
some sixty bridges reported in need f
repair by the various road overseers in
the county.
As was announced, vesterday's after
noon service at the Methodist church
was for the "old people." There were
about thirty old men and women there
who had made profession of Christianity
for thirty years or more, and theso were
invite.! to the platform and the meeting
given into tkeir hands. The attendance
was large and a splendid time it was for
the old folks.
Mr Guy 3Ioore, of Reynolds, Neb.,
and Miss Jennie Dabb, of Main and
Thirteenth-sts., this city, were married
last evening at 8 o'clock at the home of
the bride's parents, Rev. Baird, officiat
ing. They started by the early morning
train today for Cheyenne, Wyo., where
they will reside. The Herald joins
with their many friends in wishing them
abundant success.
The two young men from Omaha,
Harry and Lou Dale, who were in the
city one or two nights last week and
took active part in the singing at the re
vival meetings, were to have been here
last night; but yesterday afternoon they
were out riding on their bycicle and one
or both of them took a "header" and
were hurt so badly as to require the at
tendance of a physician.
Sad news was brought to the city
this morning from Murray. List eight
tha wife of Rev. Geo. R. Murray, who
lives near Murray, died of quick con
sumption. The funeral will occur to
morrow, and the remains will be laid to
rest in Oak Hill cemetery. Mr. Murray
is a man well known and highly esteemed
in Cass county, and many hearts join in
sympathy with him in bis sad bereave
ment. 1 he forgery cases which have been
in the courts in this city ought to be an
effective warning, of themselves, to all
reckless youni; men. One of them, a
boy, passed one note for $45, probably
hardly realized the penalty of the law,
and at least not thinking he would be
caught, and yet he is on his way to the
state penitentiary for eighteen months.
The other, a young man, probably yet in'
his twenties, passed a note for $600 only
-2at week, left town and doubtlts
thought he wris beyond reach, yet today
he pleal guiUy ' in two courts and is
waiting for his eotence. The law for
forgery imposes a !i?avy penalty; neither
of these young men couitwitted any
. bloody crime, yet they have violated tL i
law and will know itspower before tn j
penalty Is paid.
"CUlLTY"
The Plea of two Prisoners) Before)
Judge Russell this Morning.
Deputy Sheriff Miller returned this
moruing from Kms.w City with the man
wanted here for forgery, arriving at 9:50.
He, with the prisoner, Frank McCan.
proceeded to County Judge Russell's
office. Geo. Johnson, the younz man
who broke into the house of Peter Nord
out by Oreapolis was also brought into
court with McCan.
Geo. Johnsen is a stout young man,
net particularly bad looking, nineteen
years of age, and said ha wis a machinist.
His charge of breaking into a house and
committing petty larceny was read
and he immediately plead "guilty" and
was fined $10 and cost, being unable to
securs bail or pay the fiue he as remit
ted to jail to board it out.
Frank McCan heard the charge of
forgery, committed March 8, read and
immediately plead "guilty". Judge
Russell assessed $500 bonds for his ap
pearance at the district court to answer
the charge of forgery. McCan stated he
could flee u re no bonds and did not want
tliem, and will await hia trial in jail.
Both prisoners apparently realized their
guilt and that defence was useless, and
seemed resigned to take what they should
get.
A Right View of Plattsmouth.
Last evening a Herald representative
sat in the Uniwn Pacific depot at Omaha
and overheard this conversation between
two parties,one a resident of Plattsmouth,
the other not:
Non-resident: "Plattsmouth is im
proving considerable, I have noticed it
especially in the last year or two; not a
growth of the boom nature, but a steady
and substantial inprovemeut."
Resident: "Yes, that is so. During
my three year's residence there, there has
bsen a wonderful improvement; I haye
paid particular attention to the city and
notice a public spiritedness of consider
able extent has been awakened."
"I do not think that Plattsmouth has
h id full credit for this advance that has
been made, but if one will jsst Q oqjider,
she is equal to any other city in that line
nd I believe good progress will be made
soon iu uiorfi noticeable ways."
"Plattsmouth has a splendid founda
tion for her future, and I am delighted
with the general aspect of things this
spring. I have noticed that visitors
from' larger and booming cities did not
nlwcrvc rt-ndlly where Plattsmouth was
qual to them, but since pijblic improve
ment has been carried s far, te ;m
portanre can be seen. When the next
census is Ukco, I bclieye it will be found
that the population has pearly doubled
since the one before."
The Methodist Meetings.
There was a large crowd turned out to
hear Evangelist Mjller last night, at the
M. E. church, the house bejng crowded
and standing room at a premium.
After a half hour of soug service by
the choir, Mr. Miller sang a solo, "In the
Bright Land over yonder,'' which awak
ened consideiable enthusiasm. After
another song by the evangelist, "Step
Out on The Promise,"- which was suDg
in a very impressiye manner, the pastor
read the parable found in Luke 15: 1-10,
which wad followed by Miller singing
the beautiful song "Ninety and Nine."
The evangelist talked from the nara
tive found in II Kings 5th chapter. After
the exhortation, the invitation was given
to those 'hp were out of Christ, and
many knelt at the altar of prayer, and
betore the meeting adjourned confessed
their Savior. '
The meetings will continue the re
mainder of the week. There is much in
terest manifested by all Christian people
in the services, and many are being
brought into the church of Christ.
District Court Notes.
There was not a great deal of reporta
ble business transpired in the district
court today. The jury in the case of
Buster vs. tho M. P. failed to agree after
being out twenty-four hours, and last
night the court dismissed them.
Graut B. Dunn, the young man wh
forged and passed a note for $45.00 with
Geo. Wiles' signature some months ago,
was brought before the court this morn
ing, where he plead guilty to forgery,
and was sentenced to eighteen months in
the pennitentiary. lie is nineteen years
of age.
This afternoon Frank McCan was sum
moned before the district court and the
charge of forgery made to him to which
be plead guilty. He will be arraigned
tomorrow morning to receiye his sen
tence. The jury was summoned this afternoon
and the case of Plattsmouth Street Rail
way Co. vs. F. R. Outhman was heard,
Win. L. Browme for plaintiff, B. S. Ram
sey for defendant
