HAPPY WOMEN Plenty of Them in Plattsmouth and Good Reason for It Wouldn't any woman be happy after years of backache suffering, days of misery, nights of nnrest, the distress of urinary troubles.

Burk, living at corner of Third and Dyke street, Plattsmouth, says: "The quick relief from pain my in back which followed the use of Doan's Kidney Pills proved them to possess remarkable curative powers. For years I was subject to attacks of kidney com plaint and some of them so severe that I would be confined to my bed. My condition was so bad that I could not even turn over while lying down with out grasping hold of something for sup port. My husband procured Doan's Kidney Pills for me at Gering & Co. 's drug store and their use absolutely re lieved me of all pain and inconvenience. I place great value in Doan's Kidney Pills." For sale by all dealers.

BOLD DAYLIGHT ROBBERY Young Mzn C&ughf Stealing and FMes a Daspsrale Ef fort to Oct &?cy. This afternoon at about 3 o'clock, while M. Fanger was out, a young man came in and after making a few inquir ies succeeded in secreting a pair of shoes, two pairs of pants and two vests under his coat, stepped out and made away. Miss Margaret Weber, one of the clerks, immediately ran to the bar ber shop of A. J. Trillity, where Mr. Fanger had gone, and pointed out the man to Mr. Fanger, telling him the young man had taken some clothing. Mr. Fanger and R. W. White, who chanced to be in the barber shop, gave chase and captured the young man in the saloon of Ed Donat, with the clothes in his possession. Chief of Police Fitzgerald and Offi.e: Raney took him to tha police court, where county attorney, C. A. Rawls, was called for the purpose of filing a complaint. While preparing the com plaint, the man, who gave his name as Chas. I. Webb, became so abusive to Mr. Fanger that Mr. Rawls ordered the officers to take him to jail, there to re main until he sobers up before having him arraigned. While awaiting for the preparing of the complaint he rolled a cigarette, and was forbidden by Judge Archer from smoking it and became abusive to the aged judge. He was taken to the jail and later will be ar raigned, charged with petty lar;eny. HARRIED LATE LAST SATURDAY Two Plattsmouth Young People Join ed in the Holy Bond? of Wedlock. At the office of the county judge in the presence of a few relative, the ceremony uniting the lives of Joseph Harasky, aged 21, and Miss Elsie Lee, aged 16, was performed by his honor, Judge A. J. Beeson. The office had been closed and the judge gone home and a messenger had to be dispatched for him. The father of the bride, James Lee, was present and gave his consent to the union, as was required, the young lady being under age.

They will make their home in this city and Mr. Haraskey will continue in the employ of the above mentioned cigar factory.

FALLS 0ED I WHILE WQHKING Death Messenger Comes io Miss Lizzie Krcehler, While at House hold Duties. This morning, while in the act of making bread for the daily use, Miss Lizzie Kroehler answered the call of the Death Angel. Mrs. John Miner has just stepped in from across the street on an errand, and was converr ing with the young lady when she was stricken, and dropping her work was sinking to the floor when Mrs. Miner ran to her support, and getting her to a couch, telephoned for Mr. Louis Kroehler, her brother, and other relatives, her father George Kroehler, Mrs. D. B. Ebersole, her sister, and Dr. Livingston. Louis, who was at the store, closed the place instantly and mounting his bicycle, was at home in a few moments, but his sister knew nothing when he arrived, passing away in about fifteen minutes. Mrs. Andrew Kroehler, who lives a few blocks away, had arrived by that time. Dr. Stuart Livingston arrived just as she passed away, but as the stroke of Paralysis had gone to the heart it would have been impossible to have done anything for her relief. Miss Lizzie suffered a similar stroke, though not so severe, some thirteen months since, from which she slowly recovered, and has for some time been, for her, considering the stroke, very well. Before the stroke which occurred some time since, she had been afflicted with a headache and during the past two weeks symp tons of the same headache had troubled her. Sunday she was out in town and attended the services at the Masonic Home, and this morning felt no differ ent from what was her custom, and was as cheerful as general. No arrangements have as yet been made for the funeral, which will not be arranged until the other relatives arrive, who are in Omaha. She leaves an aged father. George Kroehler, who is employed in the Burlington shops; four brother George and John, who are in Omaha, and Andrew and Louis, who are engaged in the hardware business here. Two sisters, Mrs. D. B. Eber sole, living here, and Mrs. Harry New man of Omaha. Notice of the arrangements of the funeral will be given wheli perfected, and also a furthei- account of her life.

Wescott's Sons WHERE QUALITY COUNTS THE GOVERNOR'S PARTY DISBAND Different Routes Wiil Be chosen for Making the Return Trip. Oakland, Cal., May 7, 1008. Dear Colonel: Our party has arrived safe and well, happy and full of patriotism at San Francisco, where the fleet is now an chored. And, as our party disbands here, some will return over one route and some over another; some remain for several weeks and others start for home soon. I wish to say that I was never out with a happier, jollier or bet-ter-natured and enthusiastic crowd and never expect to travel with a party of tourists quite the equal of the Gover nor's party not a single complaint (to my knowledge) and everybody riding on the top wave of happiness and content ment. Our Pullman conductor, Mr. William Babcock, (a long time personal friend of mine) was with us from start to San Francisco, and the entire party voted him the prince of conductors and I assure you he merits any and all the good things said of him. Our ride from Los Angeles was along the shore line for many miles only a few rods from the ocean, where we could sit in our car for miles and miles and see the tide coming in, an endless chain of mountains of water falling over itself and striking the land with a force that to us would seem sufficient to knock the United States out of plum. If this force could only be harnessed, it seems to me it would be sufficient to run all the machinery from here to the Mississippi river. After leaving the ocean we traveled for several hours through the mountains, and for a scenic r jute this has surpassed any over which we have, as yet, traveled. We passed over some, under some and on the side of others, where on one side one would have to look twice to see the'top and on the other, three times to see the valley below. Now to the fleet. Yesterday the en tire fleet entered Golden Gate and an chored in the bay. You will get a full description of this from the papers, so I will not attempt to describe it. To day was a grand street parade, which you will also get from papers. Today Geo. Oldham and myself went out with a small party and dodged here and there and everywhere among the entire fleet. We viewed the entire fleet at short range and landed for a short time on the Maine. These floating (or I would say swimming) forts are certainly a wonder to a son of the prairie. Tomorrow, Gov. Sheldon, on behalf of Nebraska, presents the silver service, which was the object of his excursion to this city. More Anon, Frank E. Schlater. It Reached the Spot. Mr. E. Humphrey, who owns a large general store at Omega, O., and is president of the Adams County Tele phone Co., as well as of the Home Telephone Co., of Pike County, 0., says of Dr. King's New Discovery: "It saved may life once. At least I think it did. It seemed to reach the spot the very seat of my cough, when everything else failed." Dr. King's New Discovery not only reaches the cough spot; it heals the sore spots and the weak spots in throat, lungs and chest. Sold under guarantee at F. G.
