Miss Laura Pitman is a daughter of Mrs. Anna Pitman, who died several years since, leaving two orphan girls, the father having passed away several years previous to the demise of the mother. The two daughters went to California two years ago from near Ne hawka, where they were born on a farm owned by the parents. The Journal has always felt a deep interest in these young ladies, and hopes that Miss Lora's marriage will prove a most happy one: "Formal announcement is made today of the engagement of Miss Lora May Pittman of 180 North Michigan avenue to George Allen Lisk, son of Mr. and Mrs. Byron Lisk of North Lincoln ave nue. Both young people are well known here. Mr. Lisk was formerly a student at Throop institute and last year was graduated from the Pasadena Business college.

She has attended the Pasadena High School, and has made many friends since com ing here. The wedding will take place in the fall and the young couple will make their home in Pasadena." FRED RAMGE OADLY HURT Advertised Letter List. The following letters remained in the Plattsmouth postoffice up to August 3, 1908, uncalled for. Persons calling for any of them will please say "adver tised:" Mrs. F. H. Barnes, Miss Ida Horaar, Mrs. Melinda Scott, Carrie Von dell, Mrs. S. J. Warden, J. W. Bailey, A. G. Bernondy, W. DeWolf, J. W. Ferguson, John Johnson, Homer Lafer er (2), B. C. Mitchell, Charley McGen-try. F. 6. FRICKE & CO., Agents for Conke) Poultry Remedies.... Injured While Visiting in Council Bluffs, on Sunday Last. Fred Ramge yesterday was seriously injured at Council Bluffs by a hard fall received at the hide house of W. It. Lindsey& Co. Mr. Ramge, in company with Carl Kunsmann, his partner, and W. A. Lindsey, were going through the hide house on a tour of inspection, when Mr. Ramge, in crossing over a catch basin slipped and fell into the ba sin, a distance of some five feet. He struck upon his left side on a piece of two by six, striking just below the first rib and badly bruising the left side. Several ribs were forced up and out of place. Mr. Kunsmann and Mr. Lindsey at once went to to the unfortunate man's assistance, and picking him up laid him upon an improvised stretcher. When Mr. Ramge struck the timber he cried out: "Oh! God, I'm hurt," and fainted away. As soon as he had been placed upon the stretcher efforts were made to obtain medical assistance, but this took some time, as almost all the physicians were absent from home enjoying the breezes of Lake Manawa. Finally, Dr Matt Tinley was secured, and upon his arrival he gave Mr. Ramge a hypoder mic injection to allay the fearful pain he was suffering, and ordered ice placed upon the injured part. Mr. Ramge's ribs were badly swollen and the physi cian was afraid they were broken. He also feared that the stomach was rup tured. Owing to Mr. Ramge's serious condition Dr. Tinley thought a surgical examination advisable and wanted him removed to a hospital. Mr. Ramge ob jected vigorously, as he did not consider himself so badly injured and insisted that he be taken home. After a supper of soft boiled eggs, toast and coffee, Messrs. Kunsmann and Lindsey carried Mr. Ramge to a car on which he was conveyed to Omaha and taken to the Missouri Pacific train which brought him to this city at midnight last night. He was taken to his home in a hack and this morning he had med ical attendance, Dr. Cook being sum moned. He made an examination and found that Mr. Ramge had suffered a severe bruise upon the left side, the entire region of his ribs being badly pounded up. He found that no ribs had been broken and the stomach was not ruptured. He applied the neces sary remedies and this morning Mr. Ramge was resting easier. While the injury is not dangerous it is decidedly painful and will occasion Mr. Ramge a great deal of trouble. It will likely confine him to his bed for some time to come and prevent his looking after his duties at the meat market. Mr. W. A. Lindsey carne down with him from Council IJ luffs and today is assisting Mr. Kunsmann in at tending to the wants of the customers at the market.
