Harry Caddy will run the farm for her. Mr. Knapton is undecided as to what he will do. He and his family will likely leave soon fur Wisconsin where they will reside. The wolf hunt came ofT Tuoday in stead of last Saturday as was planned. There were about a hundred Nino rods in the party and all they cot was bad colds and a Jack-rabbit. The wolves, no doubt, would have suffered had; there been any in the neighbor hflod, bnt there wasn't a single wolf jo the round-up.

S juth Bend has been having a coal famine of late. J. E. Deming, how ever, drove down to Louisville Tues day and took home with him enough of the black diamond to tide him over the cold snap. The big wolf round-up southwest of Louisville last Friday resulted in the killing a but two wolves. The many who participated in the roundup are now of the opinion that wolves are not as plentiful as has been reported. A party of hunters from Louisville succeeded in kiliing five Urge jack rab bits scuth of town Thursday. A few years ago a hunter who bagged a jack rabbit in this vicinity was considered fortunate, but they are becoming quite plentiful of late years. The Courier was in error iast week in stating that George Fratcc had gone to David City to visit his brother.

Trouble Feared Along the Platte Hirer When the Ice Begins to Break. Railroad men have begun to worry about the ice in the Platte river and the probability of floods along tnat stream. It was said tat a few more days like yesterday would start t he tee in the Platte river, and wito imp streams running full of melted snnw and the river rather high to begin with serious trouble w ill follow. It was said that the situation is being closely watched and that ice will be broken near the bridges to let the stream through with the first appearance of trouble. The Lincoln Journal says: 'It is pointed out that the Union Pa cific, with its Central City-Stromsburg line, reaching from Central City to Valley, will be able to avoid much of the Platte river bottom, where irreat trouble has followed floods and ice breaking in the past. One of the worst places along the Union Pacific is near Columbus, where tbe Loup river emp ties into the Platte river. Ice break ing there usually cans s much trouble and ice picks cause the water to over flow the bottoms. The company has spent a mint of money there to protect its grades and tracks, but high water usually caus'.s trouble. At Fremont, east and west of the city, trouble has been experienced in the past. These places can be avoided by using the new line recently completed, but not yet opened to regular traffic. "The Burlington sometimes lias trouble with its Central City, Colum bus and Schuyler bridges, and these mil be Cicely liWcISd thi$ spring. "his company now has a new bridgt across the Platte at Fremont, and it is said that part of fbis structure is in no shape to stand a heavy jam". liThe Rock Island has a crossing near South Bend, and the Missouri Pacific has crossings near Louisvil' and LaPlatte.

Proof of merit lies in the evidence, convincing evidence in Plattcmouth, is not the testimony of strangers, but the endorsement of Plattsmouth peo ple. That's the kind of proof iriwn here the statement of a Plattsmouth citizen. M. W. Thomas, painter and paper Common Colds are the Cause of Many Serious Diseases. Physicians who have gained a nation al reputation as analysts of the cause of various diseases, claim that if catch ing ccld could be avoided a long list of dangerous ailments would never be heard of. Everyone knows that pneu monia and consumption originate from a cold, and chroniccatarrh, bronchitis, and all throat and lung trouble are ag gravated and rendered more serious by each fresh attack. Dj not risk your life or take chances when you have a cold. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy will cure it before these diseases de velop.

Fried. Manied in Omaha. Word has been received in this cit) that Mrs. Mary Young and Chris Mil ler of Murray, were united in marriage in Omaha, last Thursday. The con tracting parties are well known in the vicinity of Murray, and have many friends who were pleased to learn of the match, although the affair was quite a secret and proved to be a great surprise. The newly married have not returned to Murray yet, and it is presumed that they are on a wedding trip. ger provement may continue. D. W. Foster departed Tuesday to enjoy a few weeks outing, going first to Parsons, Kansas, for a few days' vis it, then be will make a tour of Texas and such odher points as may seem at tractive. Rev. A. L. Field of Watson, Mn ,has been called to official e as pastor of the Baptist church at this place, and will move here the coming week. He is a very able minister and a social gentle man, and no doubt will do good work here. Judge Sullivan of Plattsmouth stop ped here a short timeTuesdayevening while on his way home from Nebraska City, and booked Gabe Austin's appli cation for membership in the republi can party but failed to collect the ?11.05 membership fees. Samuel Luce went to Lincoln last Sunday, where he will be employed temporarily, and perhaps permanently as night foreman in the Missouri Pa cific round house. He has held a posi tion here as engine watchman for sev enteen years, and during that time he has been off duty but few days, but re cently the company ordered the work discontinued at this point, and it is presumed that on account of faithful service. Mr. Luce is in line for a posi tion as good or better. There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great may years doctors pro nounced it a local disease and prescrib ed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease and thesefore requires consti tutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure manufactured by E. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu tional cure on the market. It is taken internernally in poses from 10 drops to teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the sys tem. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address: F. J. CnENEY, Toledo.

I have been subject to attacks of kid ney and bladder trouble. Twenty years ago I had. an attack of measles which settled in the bladder. This brought on retention of the kidney secretions and for a long period I was obliged to use a catheter. After I had discarded the use of this, reten tion at times existed and by spells 1 had sharp pains shooting from each grain to the bladder. In due course of time my back commenced to trouble me. One day four years ago while leaving for work, a sharp twingcaught me in the loins and threw me to the ground. If a knife had been plunged into me the pain could not have been more intense. I laid helples? for sometime and when I did get back, it was by taking hold of someting for a support and almost crawling. For a month later I was not able to do a stroke of work and I continued to have more or less trouble from pain in my back. It was dittiult for me to even rise from a chair. I tried no end of remedies and was treated by physicians but received no permanent benefit. Finally I learned ot Doan's Kidney Pills and they were recom mended to me so strongly, I was in duced to go to Gering & Co.'s drug store and get a box. They did won ders for me. I have had but one at tack of severe baekache since which was some years after taking the remedy. The attack I mention quickly disappeared. Doan's Kidney Pills banished all pain, relieved the bladder difficulty and improved my condition every way." For sale by all dealers. Prices one.

A lady recently wrote the St. Louis Republic that she believes every word of the story that Jonah was swallowed by a whale. We are all ready to admit that the whale undertook a big job when it swallowed Jonah. As Jonah was a good man, even the w hale could not keep him down. Who Is Dan Donahue? The Nebraska City News says that Dan Donahue cf Weeping Water drifted into the city, and after load ing up at the saloons was gathered in by the police. He claims to have had $30 when he started tc load up, and after being confined in jail found a tenner in his inside pocket and paid his fine and departed. Now Dan, if you are from Weeping Water, you should register correctlv, but if you are a resident of Plattsmouth, it is very wrong to libel our reputable and morally good city. It is hardly likely that Dan is from Plattsmouth though, for the saloons there don't allow a dry man and $30 to get as far away as Ne braska City. Weeping Water Herald. Brings Suit For Damages. On account of injuries sustained last summer, William J. Wolfe instituted suit to recover damages from the Chi cago, Burlington & Quincy railroad in the sum of $200. The plaintiff was in the employ of the supply department of the above railroad, and received a broken arm while upon one of the com pany's cars. The action, which was a friendly one, was amicably settled today, and further proceedings dropped, the case beinir dismissed. 11 Rates For "Puffs."
