The Great Cuban Struggle (or Liberty in
1898, Still Fresh in Many Minds.
Mrs. John M. Thurston,
the Martyress.
I Clipping from the World-Herald of
date March 2:5, 1 '.:', and copied by per
mission from Judge Ramsey's historic
'.Scrap Hook."
Headers of the Journal will recall
the great struggle of die Cuban pa-
! triots against Spain for their freedom
- 1 'i"fl the appeal for help to the great-
hearted people of the I'nited States.
Many in I'lattsniouth will recall the
jrerierous donations made by I'latts
niouth people in the way of money,
clothing and food for all the oppressed
of that island and especially for those
called the "leconcendradoes'' who'
were imprisoned in Spanish fortresses, j
They will recall, too. that our late j
jjreat-heartcd Frank J. Morgan was
! the disbursing committeeman who1
j most generously contributed, and also
collected and most faithfully dis
bursed contributions of Cass county
peoph; for tne cause of
' CI'IJAN LIIIKKTV."
They will also recall theself-sacritice
almst tragic deatli of Mrs. John M.
Thurston, who had prone toCuba, with
her distinguished husband to help re
remove the shackles of Spanish tyran
ny and cruelty from Cuban men, wo
men and children, which death caused
the tears to tlow from every heart. No
greater no more beautiful tribute
could be yiven than such as ure here
with reproduced:
A FITTING MKMOHIAL TO
MILS. THURSTON
(World-Herald. March Si. Is'.'s. )
"The best and kindest tribute which
the people of Nebraska can pay the
memory of that tfood Nebraska woman
whose death was largely attributed to
the impressions made upon her tender
heart by the sufTerinns of the Cuban
Cuban people, is to do effective work
in alleviating the widespread distress
on that Island.
'It is now very evident that Ne
braska's contributions to the Cubans
will he enormously larpe and the
World-IIerald proposes that this con
tribution shall be forwarded to Cuba,
dedicated by generous hearts to the
cause of humanity and contributed
with tender affection as a fittintr mem
orial to the late Martha Lydia Poland
Thurston. Those who were well ac
quainted with Mrs. Thurston need
not be told that she was a woman who
would value such a tribute beyond the
most colossal stone that could be
erected to her memory.
"On Saturday last, some person who
preferred to keep his or her name from
the public, sent to the World-Herald
a loucnin"; piece or verse, wincn is
worthy of reproduction here:
'A noble Northland mother a mar
tyr to Caribs isle.
With heart too fuli of tenderness, too
free from taint and uile
To bear the sickening sights that met
her watchful eyse:
To hear the moans of women, ti: fam
ished children's cries,
Appeals to us in language stronger
than lips could frame
To answer starving babyhood in God's
and pity's name.
To lift from depths of black dispair
the weakened young and old,
Ily giving them our bounteous store,
our stock of wealth untold.
Could the sainted wife and mother,
the loyal, steadfast friend,
Know of prayers of thousands that
will this dav ascend.
To the Father of the Fatherless the
Friend of the oppressed.
For blessing on her dear ones, and for
Cuba, sore distressed.
Iler lips, although forever sealed,
would almost speak again.
M'eed starving Cuba, then I know, 1
have not lived in vain.' "
A Bad Fall.
As Uert Thrasher was coming down
the Fifth street hill this morning he
stumbled and fell, striking his hand
on the sharp end of a protruding nail
which buried itself deep in the palm,
Iiert hastened to Ir. Livingston's of-
tice and had the wound cauterized and
dressed. It is painful and will keep
him from work for some time.

! THE SAD STORY RENEWED
Some of the Friends of the Late I. R. An
drews Claim to Have Seen Him the Next
Evening After His Disappearance.
DID HE MEET WITH FOUL PLAY?
Mrs. Andrews Yet Firm in the Conviction
That He Undoubtedly Was.
No sooner does the mystery sur
rounding the death of the ill-fated I.
It. Andrews wane, than some one
comes forward with a "cock and bull
story," and revives the sad story of his
deatli and also adds that of his being
seen here and there a day or two after
he left the camp to go out hunting.
The entire story of his leaving the
stone tjuarry. the search for him of sev
eral days and the finding of his body in
the I'latte river has been told in the
columns of the .Journal, yet there
seems to be a belief among some of his
friends in Omaha and with Mrs. An
drews that Mr. Andrews was foully
dealt with. Here comes the stories of
i ins ucing seen uv prominent, men who
claim to have Leen intimately ac
quainted with the deceased, which we
clip from the Mercury, a weekly paper
published in Omaha:
"Saturday evening he was seen by
three men standing on the platform of
the Burlington station at Ashland
They insist that there is no possibility
of their having been mistaken. They
are: Frank W. Coleman, clerk of the
supreme court at Lincoln, who states
that he shook hands with Mr. An
drews: K. II. Stevens, a Lincoln con
tractor, and Prof, lieattie of Cotner
University, Lincoln.
"Sunday morning he was seen in
Omaha bv three men: F. W. Fitch,
deputy county attorney, who claims
he saw him on the rear platform of a
Farnam car shortly after 7 o'clock in
the morning. He was then dressed as
u&ual and waived hiscaneat Mr. Fitch
by way of salution:and Theo. II. John
son, of the Robert Dempster Company,
who saw Mr. Andrews on Sixteenth
street, and John S. Dingman, ex-constable,
who walked north on Sixteenth
street with Mr. Andrews about 6
o'clock Sunday morning.
"These six men are positive in their
statements, and their veracity is un
questioned. Vet his former partner,
II. C. lirome, insists that during the
time when he was thus seen by these
men, Mr. Andrews' clothes, as also his
walking stick and grip, were in the
cabin at Cedar Creek.
"Tuesday night, two days after it is
claimed he had been seen by these six
men, his body was found in the Platte
river, near Cedar Creek, so badly de
composed that upon being removed
! from the river the flesh of one of his
cheeks sloughed off, and the condition
of the body showed that he had been
dead a much longer time than the two
days's interval.
"These, briefly stated, are the facts
as elicited at the coroner's inquest.
That they are contradictory, no one
denies. And all attempsto reconcile
them have so far proven futile.
"His wife, Mrs. Mary Gerard An
drews, is the president of the Omaha
Woman's Club. She is most favorably
known to the people of Omaha. She
insists that there has been foul play.
Her reasons, she admits, will not bear
scrutiny. But she is lirmly convinced,
either by actual knowledge of enemies
who might dog her husband's foot
steps, or because of intuition, that he
is the victim of a cowardly murder.
i She says:
"My feeling that it was not an acci
dent is as strong as my feeling that he
was not seen at Ashland last Saturday
evening. And yet we had (belief that
is supported by reasons which I must
not disclose at this time. The strange
thing is that I have felt from the out
set that he was going toward the river
and was followed along the railroad
track in that direction by a man. This
notion, fT you please to call it such,
was contrary to what we were told at
the cabin near Cedar Creek. We were
told that he went in the opposite direc
tion from the direction I believed he
went."
The Woodmen Picnic.
Two weeks from today will be a
hummer for Plattsmouth. no prevent
ing Providence. The readers of the
Journal do not want to lose sight of
the fact that that is when the Wood
men have their big time. From pres
ent indication the largest crowd that
ever assembled in Plattsmouth will be
here at that time. With good weather
in our favor this will no doubt prove
true, because everybody is coming. If
you want to be "in the swim," be here
on Thursday, August '24, and we will
give you an opportunity of "keeping up
with the procession."

"Give Us More Light!"
We have not met a citizen in the

For nearly four years have the busi
nessmen been compelled to grope their
way home in darkness after closing
their places of business or carry a lan
tern in order to see their way. We
say, and it is but the expressions of
numerous citizens, that if the city
council is fearful of the result of tak
ing the responsibility of "turning on
lights, let them order an election to
decide the matter. We will soon have
one of the most complete lighting
plants in the state, and we under
stand that the company is ready to
contract with the city at any time
now to light the city at a very reason
able rate. Let every citizen who lias
the interests of Plattsmouth at heart,
agitate the matter, and keep it prom
inently before the people until some
action is taken.
