A FATAL FALL!
William K. Webb Falls From
the H. & M. Bridge to the
Ice, a Distance of 70 Feet.
DIED UNCONSCIOUS.
The Most Disstresing Acci
dent that Has Occurred in
Plattsmouth for Many
Months.
There have been numerous accidents
lappeningto workmen on the 1$. & M.
railroad bridge since commencing oper
ations upon the new structure, but
none so horrible as that which occur
red to Mr. William K. Webb on Tues
day afternoon last, in which he lost
lis life.
M r. Webb was engaged at work on
the top of the first span on this side of
the bride, where other workmen were
also employed, and it seems that he
was engaged in assisting in removing a
large pieceof lumberand stepped aside
to let those coming from the opposite
direction, pass. In doing so he step
ped upon a loose board, which gave
way and he fell through below. Eye
witnesses say that in falling, he first
struck the casing of the temporary
pier, erected under a low trussel work,
from which he bounced to the ice on
the river, a distance of nearly seventy
feet or more. His fellow workmen
as soon as possible rushed to his aid,
but as soon as they reached t he mang
led form, he was unconscious, and it
wasstion discovered that his injuries
were fatal. The unfortunate man was
carried aboard the work train and
brought to his home in this city. In
the meantime Dr. Livingston, the
company's physician, was apprised of
the terribJe accident.
While everything in the power of
physician and friends was done to save
his life, his spirit took its flight to the
(Ireat Ueyond at 10:30 Tuesday night.
1 1 could not possibly have resulted oth
erwise to the unforunate man whose
skull was crushed and both legs badly
mangled.
William 11. Webb was well known in
Plattsmouth, having been in the em
ploy of the li. & M. for a number of
years, first in the shops and then with
the regular bridge gang of the liurling
lington. He was a gentleman who
commanded the respect of all who
knew him, and with a genial, kind dis
position calculated to make friends
with all with whom he met. The
entire community was shocked upon
hearing of the terrible disaster that
had befallen him and his grief-stricken
wife and children.
While not intimately acquained with
the deceased, the writer has been a
resident of the same city for a number
of years in which reside the father and

well. It has been but a few months
since the deceased vistited the Journal
orlice to convey some word his aged
father had sent us. lie had just re
turned from his mother's funeral at
Memphis, Mo. It seems to be true
that "misfortunes never come singly,"
and the untimely death of Mr. Webb
isa hard blow to thealready sorrowing
wife, w ho was just recovering from the
shock she received a few weeks ago
of the death of her brother, who
was accidentally killed in the state of
Washington, and whose remains were
broughu here and barely consigned to
the silent tomb, when she is called up
on to grieve over a still greater loss in
the death of a loving husband. Mrs.
Webb and the fathless children have
the sympathy of the entire community.
The deceased was a member of
Plattsmouth Lodge, Xo. 7, 1. O. O. F.,
and also a member of the Loyal Mystic
Legion. The funeral will take place
from the M. E. chuch to-morrow ( Fri
day ) at 2 o'clock, and will be conduct
ed under the auspices of the Odd Fel

yesterday and today to attend the
funeral are the following brothers, sis

Miss Katharine Dovey Entertains Her
Young Associates.
On Saturday evening, February 14,
the palatial home of Mr. and Mrs. (Jeo.
K. Dovey was the scene of a most Jolly
time anions the little folks, the occa
sion for which was the valentine party
given by their daughter, Miss Katha
rine. Kvery invitation sent out met
with a personal response, and It is un
necessary to say that there was a ood
ly number present, properly costumed
for the event. From the moment the
happy children had all arrived, the
merriment began and continued up to
the hour of leave-taking. When the
time for unmasking arrived, was the
jolliest moment of the occasion, as
much suspense was experienced in the
maneuvers to find out "who was who."
Elegant refresliinents just suited to
the tastes of the girls and boys, were
served, and muchly enjoyed. The
costumes were well arranged, and
would rellect credit on those gotten up
by largerpeople. Miss Katherine made
all feel "atliome,Maiid when the guests
departed it was with a unanimous sen
timent that little Miss Dovey was keep
ing up the record long established by
the Dovey family. Following are the
names of those present and characters
assumed:

That which produced the greatest
merriment among the little folks was
the novelty of pinning the tail onto a

who came the nearest to performing
the task, and received prizes were

Cass county. Price, $70.00 per acre $10,080. $6,080 cash,

fered this farm for quick sale in order to apply the proceeds
on the payment of the other farm.

A Grand Sacctii.
The mask hall given by the Turner
Society at their hall Saturday night
was a grand success socially, financially
and every other way, and Is declared
by all In attendance, one of the finest
events of its character ever given in
Plattsmouth, the credit for which Is
due to those under whose direct man
agements was conducted. The lad Irs
prize for the best costume was awarded
to Miss Anna Parks, of Glenwood, and
the awarding committee made no mis
take in their decision, as uhe was most
tastily attired for the occason, besides
she Is a very handsome little lady.
Miss Let ha Ashby, of this city captur
tured the prize for the best lady char
acter. Both prizes consisted of boquets
of beautiful Mowers. Jimmle Berline
"took in" the prize for the best gentle
man costume, by representing the "tin
trust," while the prize for the lest,
gentleman character was carried olT by
Glen Smith, who represented "Happy

ance from neighboring towns wen

Does This Hit You.?
The Journal is pleased with the fact
that is lias but three or four names on
its subscription book, mean enough
after reading the paper two years, and
upon receiving anotlccof their dues
for same, to return it to the post
master with "I don't takethe paper,"
written upon the margin of the copy
returned.
Now the trials and tribulations of
the average country publisher are
sometimes very great, but a man of
this character is most to be abhored of
all his trials. Now a person who will
be guilty of reading a newspaper two
years, and send back such word after
receiving a statement lias a heart
about the size of a pin head, and need
never fear of dying from honesty.
