Johnson, of This City Summoned to the Death Bed of an Old Friend in Oklahoma. Upon the receipt of a telegram from a prominent attorney of Lyons, Wood county, Oklahoma, urging his immed iate attendance at the deathbed of Mr. A. II. Pratt, who resides in Wood county, Oklahoma, Mr. J. W. Johnson departed on the south bound train on the M. P. this morning for that point. Mr. Pratt is a former resident of Casscounty. Heand Mr. Johnson were for years very close and dear friends, and it is the dying request of Mr. Pratt that his old friend be sent for that he can confer with him as to what disposit ion w ill be made of his property. Mr. Pratt has lived in Oklahoma for several years, and in casehe dies (and Mr. Johnson thinks from the tone of the telegram that it is impossible for him to survive) he will have quite an estate to be settled up. Mr. Johnson hopes to arrive in time to see his old friend before he passess away, and it may be possible that he w ill want to be brought back here for interment. Mr. Pratt, we are informed, was a most highly respected citizen and his friends were legion. In case inter ment takes place at his present home, Mr. Johnson v. ill remain there for at least two months to assist in straight ening up Mr. Pratt's affairs. Mrs. Johnson went to Lincoln today where she will remain with her sons, Ed and Frank, until Mr. Johnson's re turn.

ODD FELLOWS INSTALLATION An Elegant Banquet and Toasts Immediately Follow the Interesting Ceremonies. Last Tuesday occurred the semi-annual installation of the two highest oflicers of the Order of Odd Fellows, Plattsmouth Lodge No. 7. About thirty members of the local lodge met in the hail to witness the solemn ceremonies. David Wallingren was installed as Noble ( i rand and Thomas Troop as Vice r.rand. The retiring oflicers were Henry Miller, ex-NoMe (Irard, an J David Wallingren, ex-Vice(Jrand. After the installation of these two oMicers a chosen team proceeded to in itiate Charles K. Crabill into the mys teries 'if the second degree. Mr. Cra bill passed this ordeal all right. Then after a period ot hanci-siiaking and sociability the banquet was an nounced and all adjourned to the din- inghall where the festive beard had been spread. The rest of the evening was spent in feeding the mental and physical man, the former with toasts and speeches apropos to the occasion, the latter with the tasteful refreshments. Es pecial credit is due Henry Miller and Chas. Crabill for the preparation of the banquet. i Omaha Woodmen May Come. J. W. Earnett, deputy county treas urer of Douglas county, and II. P. Leavitt, a prominent attorney of Oma ha, were in the city Tuesday in the interests of the lodge of Modern Woodmen looking for a site to hold a big picnic. They looked over the ground on Chi cago avenue at the ball ground and pronounced themselves much pleased. The ground and its surroundings are satisfactory. The picnic is to be held Wednesday, August 2, and will be a big affair. Two thousand people is a conservative estimate of the number who would come down if Plattsmouth secures the event. More Teachers Resign. The memters of the school board have been made monkeys of again. Two more teachers have resigned, one to accept a better paying position and one to marry. The Courier likes to learn or teachers getting better posi tions, and we rejoice to hear oi them getting married. It is quite the pro per thing for every good looking school ma'am to marry some nice young man, or the homely ones too, for that mat ter, and it is also their duty to receive as much salary as they can for their work, but it would seem that a school board could, in all justice, be hard hearted enough to have teachers sign a contract and then insist on having it lived up to. Louisville Courier. Hat Under the Collar. The agent for the Dempster Mfg. Co. when he met with the city coun cil' said that $1275 was the net price for the water plant, and that it was very reasonable at that figured, but they were anxious to place one here, as it would help to sell others. Now they state, after giving figurec on the same plant at HOC lesss. that the risk they run in putting such plants in towns, makes it necessary to charge more. The putting in this plant has already sold them a fiO-horse power engine to an Iowa man who came and staid here a few days and watched it work, and all on account of the re commend given it by the engineer, yet this greedy-gut company soaked the town that favored them. If the city council don't do something to right this wrong, The Herald may solicit aid to establish a fund for that pur pose, and see if a grand jury and trial will not right matters.
