A gentleman from Chicago, who was here yesterday In the Interests of the advertising depattment of a patent medicine firm, nave the Journal a call. This was his first visit to Plattsmuuth. lie said he was surprised to see so large a town, with so many magnifi cent business Weeks, and was surpris ed to see the street paved, lie also spoke of our tine court house. Now, It is very encouraging to hear such compliments passed upon our city. It If home people who do the most talk ing against Plittsmouth. If the mouths of some of our own "dear peo ple" could be muzzled when strangers come hereon an inspection tour, the city would fare much better. We have a good town a town that is up- to-date In everything, and with har mony and united action on the part of our people we can and should keep pace with the best of-the cities in Ne- braska. "oicTchronio boree. As a dressing for old chronic sores there Is nothing so good as Chamber lain's Salve. While it Is not advisable to heal old sores entirely, they should be kept in a good condition, for which this salve Is especially valuable. For sore nipples Chamberlain's Salve has no superior.

It was a blind mule that had wandered luto the river and could not see its way out. The engineer and fireman say that It has been in the river since clay before yesterday. It would simply go round and round. S. H. Atwood told parties at Cedar Creek about the poor animal, and requested them to see that it was relieved from Its pres ent distressed condition. Twenty Year Battle. "I was a loser In a twenty year bat tit! with chronic plies and malignant sores, until I tried Pucklen's Arnica Salve; which turned the tide, by cur ing both, till not a trace remains," writes A. M. Pruce, of Farmville. Va. licst for old Ulcers, Cuts, Burns and Wounds. 2Cc at F. G. Fricke & Co., druggists. Advertising the Remedy. Governor Joseph Folk addressed large meeting of the retail merchants of Missouri at Jefferson City, where he spoke against the mailorder houses and urged advertising as the remedy for the falling off in local trade. He said in part: " Wc are proud of our splendid cities and we want them to increase in wealth and population, and we also want our country towns to grow. We wish the city merchants lo build up, hut we also desire the country mer chants to prosper. I do not believe in the mailorder citizen. If a place is good enough for a man to live in and to make his money in, it is good enough for him to spend his money in "No merchant can succeed without advertising in one way or another. Patronize your town papers, build them up, and they will build the town up and build you up Increased trade and greater opportunities. Io not be afraid that business is going to be hurt by the recent exposures of wrong doing In the commercial world. No man who is doing an honest business can be Injured by the llgbt. All busi ness will be better for the cleansing process it Is going through and the stamping out of the evil." Don't Be Backward.

G.LARSON THE RAILROAD EMPLOYES i The he Law Recently PasseJ by Con-! gress far Their Benefit. j The Journal prints the following' law, recently passed t.y the congress : i of the I'nited States, in relation to railroad employes, which refers orin-1 clpal'.y to those who are Injured while on duty. It i It is not the law of any i state or municipality, but It Is a law of the whole land, and made so by the highest authorities of the country the congress of the I'nited states. Why we refer to this law at the pres ent time Is simply on account of the contract issued by the Partington which all minors at the shops in this city are required to sign: "Au act relation to liability of com mon carriers in the Mstrlct of Colum bia and territories and common car riers endued in commerce between the states and foreign nations to their employes. "IV it enacted by the senate and house of representatives of tlie I'nited States ot America In congress assem bled.

"Sec. That In all actions hereafter brought against any common carriers to recover damages for personal Injur ies to an employe, or w here such injur ies have resulted In his death, the fact that the employe may have been guilty of contributory negligence shall not bar a recovery where contributory negligence was light and that of the employer was gross In comparison, but the damages shall be diminished by the jury In proportion to the amount of negligence attributable to such em ploye. All iiiestlons of negligence and I contributory negligence shall he for the jury. ''Sec. 'A. That no contract of em ployment, insurance, relief benefit, or indemnity for injury or death entered into by or on behalf of any employee, nor the acceptance of any such insur ance, relief benefit, or indemnity by the person entitled thereto, shall con stitute any liar or defense to any action brought to recover damages for per sonal injuries or to death of such em ployee: l'rovldcd, however, That upon the trial of such action against any common carriers the defendant may set otl therein any sum it has contri buted toward any such Insurance, re lief, benefit, or indemnity that may have been paid to the injured em ployee, or, In case of his death, to his personal representative.

"Approved, June 11, 'M." The Lid Question. The lid question is one that should appeal to all people who believe in the proper observance of the Sabbath as a means to a higher standard of morals for the younger generation. On the part of the older people It docs not matter so much because they have experience before them, but It does matter when It comes to considering the Interests of the young and In experienced. The lid nuestion reaches Into almost every home and there fore It should vitally Interest every parent. No one Is better pleased to sec the saloon men of I'lattsmouth come to the agreement they have than the Journal. It shows I hey are law abiding and desire to conform with the laws of t he city and state. Saved Hit Comrade' Life.

A special from Nebraska City gives more particulars of the tragedy en acted at the Morton House In Ne- oiasua i n v ciine.Miay evening, as follow: The bodv of 1'iank Norris who killed himself last night after shooting his sweetheart, I'earl ('rouse, is si in neie in i'iiai,;;e oi I he limit r laker. It will be shipped to Halts burg, Mo., tomorrow morning ami tin inoiitsi win oe Held tomorrow even ing. It develoyed today thai the dead man is married ami ins nwic resides near his old home in Missouri. II was the prodigal sou of the family and his parents were unable to do anything with him. The girl is still alive and It Is thought she may recover. She Is shot Just back of the right eye and tin ball Is still In her head. It Is said by lr. Marnell, who is in charge of the case, that she will most likely lose her eye, If she recovers from the wound Norris prior to committing the deed wrote the follow ing letter: Nebraska City- Dear mother I hope you will forgive me as I am doing this over a girl that I love and she has done me dirty bury me by my grandfather Notify Allen Norris, l'lattsburg Mo . Frank. Norris iiilt the I'attcrson-llrainard Carnival company to come back to this city on June lull, to be with the girl. The girl's paretits are here lo look after her. She Is still In the room at the hotel where she was shot anil will remain there until she Is able lo be taken to her home at Hock port Missouri. Government Building Site. It is a hard question to determine on which side of Main street the new postofllce building will be loeated. It Is generally conceded that It will be located on Sixth street. A Journal reporter has conversed with iiite a number of those who have been very free to express them selves, and the sites refered to in a late issue of tills paper seems to meet with the approval of all. In fact we have failed to come across one person w ho docs not believe that the building should be located on Sixth street. Kven the business men on tlic extreme lower part of Main street do not ob ject to the proposition. Many believe that the block on w hich the Joe Fitz gerald residence Is located is the pro per place, while there are others who are favorable to the 1'attersDti corner, If a sutllclcnt amount of ground can be secured for the amount appropriated. It is said the block spoken of on the corner of Sixth and Vino can be pur chased, and that the price will come within the limit of the appropriation. Of course bids for the various sites spoken of will be recelved.and of course the best one for the money will be ac cepted. Nelson Girl Bitten by a Dog. While walking along the road near Henry Kauffman's farm, about four miles south of town, Miss (Jladys, the eight year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. W. Nelson, was attacked Frl day by a savage dog, which bit her on the left arm near the elbow. The girl was taken home at once, and Ir. J. S. Livingston was summoned to dress the Injured arm, which was bad ly lacerated by the dog's teeth. The patient Is resting as comfortable as circumstances will permit, although she experienced considerable pain from the wound. Glenwood Keeps County Seat. A special from (Ilenwood, Iowa, un der date of Thursday, would Indicate that our neighbor over the way had won out In the county seat light: "The county seat contest In Mills county, by which the town of Malvern sought to remove the court house rrom ilen wood to Malvern, was settled today by the board or supervisors deciding that Malvern had not enough signatures on the petit Ion. The board therefore de cided that no election could be called. This Is a decided victory for Glenwood from the fact that out of three mem bers of the board two of them wcro workers for Malvern, residing In that town and vicinity. The board has been In session a month, although the result has been forecasted by the friends of Glenwood ever since the petition and remonstrance were tiled." OVERCOME BY STONE PILE Such Was the Affliction of Prisoners Friday. Ta City WERE UNLOADING ROCK AT M. P. DEPOT While Street Commissioner Janda Was Otherwise Engaged They Duck For Home, While street commissioner Janda'H attentions were engaged eisewliere, the iuestloti, as to who was tl.o best half-tulle runner, arose between Messrs. F.ledge and Lambert, ami they being unable to fully determine this therefore entered Into a contest of speed, in which, although slightly handicapped in the start, Janda made good at the Mulsh. The occasion for all this untimely exertion was that work and I he load ing of stone did not agree with Charlie Lambert and l.ert, Fledge, and they therefore sought for less st rcnuous oc cupations; hut In .so doing they forgot lo consider the si reel commissioner's views, or to take into account the ef fort necessary to make a home run, when two men are out and three on bases. ( f course they may have nodereMtl mated the support that Twlrler Janda would receive, but nevertheless they took the chances, and got as far as Flcdge's home, where the decision was so hotly contested that Charlie drove a short one toward the barn, and lici t got a foul tip and ducked Into the house. Then It was hut a short way to the. finish, for after a few minutes search, Chief of 1'ollcc Fitzgerald and Night Policeman Slater found the one con cealed In the barn and the other try ing to burrow Into a pile of rubbish In a back room of the house. Then the, final home run to the county bastlle with the two delinquents was made by the olllcers. who will not be calld upon io perform any more calls upon these t wo for they will no doubt get to play hall (and chain) hereafter when placed at work under Mr. Janda. Chas. Lambert Is one of the fellows who was lined $lnn and costs for being "too familiar" during tin- streetcarnl val. As he was unable to "cough up" the assessment he was sentenced to work it out. on the st reets. Pert Pledge was Hoed lu and costs for vagrancy, lighting, being intoxi cated and several other charges, and In default of which he was also given an opportunity to work out his tine.
