to see him off and bid him bon voyage.
Just ac the train was fulling out some

Plattsmouth with him," and abcut
sixty of his friends bearded the train
and came this far.
They made the welkin ring without
a doubt. On the departure of the

Returns From Encampment.
The people who were In attendance
at tbe Grand Army encampment re
port an excellent time while at Fre
mont, saying that that city treated
them like princes.
The entertaining capacity of the
city was taxed to its full extent, the
headquarters were at the Eno hotel,
the genial host of which is II. K.
Dunbar formerly of this place. The
encampment while in session gave a
vote of thanks to Mr. Dunbar ror the
pleasant way in which he entertained
his guests and ministered to their
comfort.
Hastings secures tbe next encamp
ment, there was not a very great con
test for it, though the west end of the
state stood together in selecting the
location. A report given out during
the session showing that in 1895 there
were 10,8lt; members of tbe Grand
Army in this state, and a poll of the
membership from records and other
sourses showed, on May 1 of this year,
only 4,338 a loss of per cent in
twelve years, showing how rapidly the
members are joining the Grand Army
above.
The election of officers shows the

A MOST SHAMEFUL AFFAIR
One of the Participants a Daughter of a
Pioneer Methodist Preacher in
This Section.
Alice Cooper, the Chicago sculptress,
is figuring In the daily papers as one
of the principals in an affair by which
Nat. Hubbard of Cedar Rapids, leaves
his wife and old dying mother. He is
a son of Judge Hubbard, for so many
years the leading Iowa attorney for
the Northwestern railroad, says the
Glenwood Opinion.
In conversation with one of the early
pioneers of Plattsmouth, he informed
the Journal that he had heard Mr.
Cooper preach discourses in an old log
house in the south part of Platts
mouth in the early days, when the
country was very sparsely settled and
but about a half dozen houses where
the city now stands.
Alice Cooper was born in Mills coun
ty, near Glenwood. Her father was
the son of Peter Cooper, the pioneer
Methodis minister who preached the
first sermon on the site of the city of
Omaha. Her father managed the mill
at Glenwood, and later moved to Colo
rado where he made several fortunes
in speculation, and -himself founded
the Colorado town of Glenwood Springs
named after hfs old Iowa home town.
AKce Cooper became famous as the
sculptrtss who designed and executed
the statue of Sacajawea, the "bird
woman," who guided Lewis and Clark
across Ihe mountains to the Pacific
Ocean, and it was her statue that
stood at the gates of the Tecent expo
sition at Portland.
The Call of Alice "Cooper and Nat.
Hubbtrd shows to wbat dangers tbe
countTry is drifting 1a its social life.

A Lively Runaway.
Jesse Godwin while driving a car
riage from tbe Parmele barn Mon
day afternoon, near the Masonic Home,
had a runaway. It seems as though
one of the tugs became unhitched in
some way and the tongue coming
down ran into the ground and break
ing the double trees and breaking loose
from the carriage, also pulling over
the dashboard or rather pulling the
dashboard and Mr. Godwin out of the
buggy, and getting away. The horses
ran down the avenue, and when they
tried to turn the corner at Sixth and
Vine they were unable to do so at the
speed they were going and one of the
horses fell when they were caught.
No one was hurt though there was an
other young man and a woman and a
child in the rig at tbe time they
started.
Happy Hollow Very Unhappy.
The residents of Happy Hollow were
trying to be happy Sunday evening
and got very unhappy before they got
through with tbe matter. Itappears
that at the home of Louis Abl, a
keg of beer was on tap, and w hen It
ran out they got some wine, and the
two did not mix well, and caused
those that took it to disagree as well,
and finally resulted in a free for all
fight, in which Mike Prels got one of
his fingers somewhat lacerated, Chas.
Sitzman seemed a little the worse
for the wear also. While Fred Voght
man and Louis Abl were not dis
figured to speak of.
Warrants were sworn out for the
four Mike Preis, Louis Abl, Fred
Voghtman and Charles Sitzman.
Three of whom pleaded guilty to the
charge of being drunk, and got the
penalty, provided by the statute, ($10
and costs) making in round numbers
aboct $15 each. Fred Voghtman
pleaded not guilty, and his case was
set for tomorrow afternoon at 2
o'clock.

They Fooled Them All.
That there has been something out
of the ordinary in the actions of L. K.
Upton of Union in the way he had
been making preparations for house
keeping, and still persisting that he
bad no intention of getting married,
that was not in keeping with the way
others do, is a sure thing. Much has
been the joshlngs that he has received
as to whether he was going to get
married and as to whether be was al
ready married, but to no effect-ho
would neither deny nor affirm the fact,
until the present, when he admit
ted that he was the happy husband of
the former Miss Nina Lynde, a fasci
nating young lady of Union. They
were married at Council Bluffs, Iowa,
on the 17th of March last.
The Journal with its many friends
from all parts of the county, wish
them all the joy of the promise, and
that their pathway may be strewn
with roses, and that in the picking of
them, our friends may not have the
misfortune of coming into the rough
contact with the thorns.
B&se Ball and More Base Bald.
The game on the local grounds lasU
Saturday between the Red So a anf
the Townsend Gun Club resulted in a
victory for the Red Sox by a score of
to 4, the Red Sox not playing the last
part of the ninth inning.
The game played at Glenwood e-
tween tbe High school team and the
White Sox of that place, was a great
game, t rom tne nrsi it was bmuchi
that the boys across tbe river knew
how to play ball and were not in the
least backward in doing so. While
the team from here were putting up
as good a game as they had with them,
the White Sox were beating them to
it. The result of the game was Glen
wood 18 to Plattsmouth's 1, that Is
more than was expected even under
Free Silver.
The Red Sox crossed bats with the
Storr. team, at Omaha yesterday, a
couple of tlmes.the first resulting in a
victory for our boys at the tune of 30
to 3, while in thelatter game Omaha's
team got there with the goods ncorlntf
six runs and only allowing oui boys
three. A large crowd from here were
In Omaha to witness the game, in
round numbers it is estimated that
there were some two hundred, as It
was said that in looking over the
grand stand every other person was
from Plattsmouth.

Judge Sullivan, of Plattsmouth, was
in the city yesterday on a visit with
