Last Friday County Superintendent of Schools, W. C. Smith tendered his resignation to the County Commission ers to take effect April 1, and the same has been accepted. Mr. Smith has Hield the position for nearly four years, but lias contemplated this step for some time. His reason for this is that he does not consider the emoluments of the office sufficient to justify him in remaining here, and that a more re munerative position is tendered him. Mr. Smith will remove to Table Hock, Neb., to engage in the lumber, grain and coal business with his father and brother. He has been a most efficient and faithful official, and has given gen eral satisfaction. The Journal, as well as Mr. Smith's many friends through out Cass county, regret to to see him make this more. Crackers With A Kerosene FlaVor They are known as the common bulk Now and Then. Attending the funeral services of an old and respected citizen of I'latts mouth at 1 he Methodist church, not many days since, a thought came to me of w hat a change had taken place in t he Methodist church since the early days of Plat tsmont h and the present. Now we see a large and line construct ed building the prideof I'lattsmouth, built substantially from lumber, linish ed outside wit h brick; with large win dows of beaut i fully st ained glass, pre sented to the church by some kind hearted members as memorial win dows. While the outside of the church building presents a handsome appear ance, the inside arrangements are sim ply grand, and is a beautiful sight to behold. Comfortable seat s are provid ed for all who wish to attend services, and polite ushers in attendance. The building is illuminated hy electricity, the sanctuary occupied by the minis ter and the choir is large and hand somely furnished and thesingingof the choir, especially t he soprano and alto, is up to date, and could not Ik; improv ed. It was a pleasure to me to listen to their sweet singing. How different did we lind the Methodist church serv ice in the very early days of the settle ment, of I'lattsmouth and Cass county. The membership of the church con sisted only of a few families, among them Mr. Sheppard Duke; Mr. H. Spur lock, who was at that time a young man; Mr. Yates, the minister; Mr. Throckmorton, Mr. and Mrs. M. L. White and a few more whose names I do not remember. Mr. 15. Spurlock and our o!d-tiine friend, Aunty White are living yet. Sunday services were held hy Kev. Yates at the homes of the few mem bers, or in some empty room. With so few members it could not be expected to support a minister. Put pay or no pay, Mr. Yates held Sunday service, and during tin; week he worked at his trade of shoemaking in company w ith Mr. Trockmorton. They rented a small room on Main street and had all they could do mending boots and shoes. Poth of them were good singers. We have listened to their singing time and time again. They generally sang a good old Methodist hymn, which was, "I am glad I am a Methodist; glory hallalujah," and kept time to the sing ing by hammering at a new sole of a boot or a shoe on an old Hat iron. AYe could hear them singing several blocks away. I immagine I hear them yet. Of course people were poor at that time and we could not dress in the heighth of fashion like now days. The minister, Mr. Yates, was no exception. We all wore very plain and cheap clothes and it was nothing uncommon to see Pev. Yates shoulder a sack of flour and carry the same from the steamboat landing to his home; or CJou Trail dra Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway TICKETS: 1504 Farnam St. Daily J Trains nS ) Each lJuay soda cracker. All push a wheelbarrow with a sack of ki tatocsor com home. What would Hie members of the church think of their minister to-day seeing him with a sack of Hour on his shoulders or wheeling a sack of potatoes home? Pev. Yates did not think any thing of it. I hit time changes, so do people. After some time tin; membership of the church increased, and a store room on Main street rented and services held there. Kev. Yates left I'latts mouth, and Professor Miller, of the Oreapolis Seminary, attended to the services here until the old Vnurch on the corner of Main and Sixth st reels, was built. Co.NKAII S IM.ATKU. Happily Wedded. Mr. Michael Lutzand Miss FlizaU'th Carstens were united in the holylionds of matrimony at the home of the groom's mother, south of I'lattsmouth, on Thursday evening, March V.Htt. Pev. Ploetz, of German Presbyterian church of thiscily, performed the cer emony in the presence of a numler of relatives and most intimate friends of the contracting parties. The. couple are loth well known and highly re spected, and the; Journal unites with t heir host of friends in wishing them long life, at tended by happiness and prosperity.
