Mrs. Gertrude Sophia, aged h years, '1 months and j; days on September 1 at 12:00 a. rn. of age at the home of her son J. C Peterson in this city. Funeral Thurs day, September 17th. at 2:."'.i p. rn. Irorn the residence of J. C. Peterson in this city. Peacefully as the quiet twilight closes the busy day the life of Mrs. Gertrude Sophia Peterson went out this morning as the new day came in. After a life spent in several lands far separated by land and sea the end of this noble wom an was as me sailing oi a ship into a haven of rest. The storms and trials of life for her had been passed and she seemed to be entering the harbor of peace when the thread snapped and her life came to its end. Mrs. Peterson was born upon July 1, 1821 in Denmark, Europe, where her life was principally spent, and wherein her early age she became a communicant of the Lutheran church being confirmed in that faith on the first Sunday after Easter in the year 18ot) when she was almost in her fifteenth year. To the end, which came seventy-two years later she remained true to this faith. For almost four score years this churc h had been her guiding star in life and to its grand teachings much of the noble ness of her life owed its origin. It mattered not to her that the stormy sea separated her from her native Ian', she carried in her heart the faith and the teachings of this christian faith. It was in Denmark that she entered into marriage with Peter R. Peterson on Nov. 25, 1843, and out of this happy union there was born six sons, five of whom survive their mother, viz : P. C. Peterson residing in this city, C. II. Peterson residing in Madison County; J. C. Peterson residing in this city, R. J. Peterson residing inAnacortes, Wash. and L. H. Peterson living in this city. Her husband joined those on the farther shore in 1861 and a son also preceded his mother to the grave. It was in 1 S.sG that Mrs. Peterson came to America, her son J. C. making the far journey to Denmark for her. Since coining to this country she had made made her home with him. It is always a regret to chronicle the passing oi a noble me. Particularly is this true when one finds the whole ex istence of the departed to have been of true and lasting Christianity, one un blemished in any way and one serving as a beacon for younger generations to pattern after. So it has been in this case. There has been furnished no more inspiring example in life than that afforded by this good woman who sank to her rest sustained and soothed by an unfaltering trust that her awakening would be on the golden shore where her life would be everlasting and of bliss It is a tempering of grief to know that her end came so peacefully and quietly The funeral will take place tomorrow (Thursday) afternoon from the residence of J. C. Peterson on Main street in this city, at 2:00. The pall bearers will be her children and she will go to rest in the Lutharan faith. Sen. Stone Passes Through. Senator William J. Stone of Missouri was a passenger Wednesday on No. 7, going north, it is reported to Omaha, where he is expected to speak. Senator Stone is one of the nation's great ora tor's, and it is a treat to listen to him. It is to be hoped that he can deliver several addresses to the voters of Ne braska prior to election day, as he is a convincing talker. A number of passengers on the train took great interest in him while the train was standing at the station, but the time was so short that it was im possible to get an expression from the senator on the general situation or his own chances in Missouri, where he is op posed by Gov. Folk for re-election. Had Vision of Prairie Fire. Fire alarm Wednesday morning took the department to the vicinity of the M. P. depot where there was some burning grass threatening some coal in the yards. There was no loss. Doubt less the party turning the alarm in had visions of an old time prairie fire and thought the city was about to be de stroyed by the flame demon. There are many rumors as to what the fire was, some even insisting tnat the ai. I . pas senger station was a prey to the de vouring element all of which turned out to be fantasy pure and simple.

Departed For Auburn. Rev. A. A. Randall departed Tuesday night on the midnight train for Auburn where he will attend the Nebraska An nual Conference of the Methodist church. The territory included in this conference covers all that portion of the state lying south of the Platte river and east of a line running north and south between Adarns and Kearney counties. There are four conferences in the state. The conference at Auburn will have as its Bishop, Robert Me Intyre, one of the newly elevated Bishops of the church. and a pulpit ora tor of rare ability. Bishop Mclntyre is a noted speaker, one whose eloquence is likened to that of the most famous pulpit orators of the country. He will be present throughout thejjeonference and will favor the visiting ministers with much eloquent discourse. Next Sunday Rev. Randall will speak at the First Christian Church at Auburn and this assures the congregation present the opportunity of listening to a fine discourse. It is the expectation of the Journal to be able to print from day to day a short account of the action of the conference for the benefit of its readers. Have Commenced Work. At last work is under full headway for the big subway or concrete c ulvert which the Burlington proposes to put in to carry off the water from Main street. There is an immense platform erected which will be used to mix c on crete on and a great pile of sand, some seven cars piled along the tracks whic h a big forc e of workmen were busy un loading rock for the concrete Tuesday. The culvert will be tunneled under the tracks and will be a delicate and par ticular job. Immense timbers have been unloaded some of which will be used to crib up the tracks while the men are putting the culvert through. From all appearances the company pro pose to put in such a opening as will forever preclude having to do the work over again, excavation lor the open ing will commence very shortly. Popular People to Wed. Judge Beeson on Wednesday issued a marriage license to Chas. O. Country man, aged .'!.'!, of Rock Bluffs precinct and Miss Alice Oliver, aged 27, of the same precinct The wedding takes place tomorrow. Miss Oliver is the handsome and accomplished daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Oliver, a vountr lndy with many friends who extend their best wishes for the happiness of her union. Mr. Countryman is a son of R. E. Countryman, well and favora bly known to all of the older residents of the county. Mr. Countryman is a gentleman of high standing in the com munity, a solid, upright citizen of un blemished character and one whom all regard very highly. Like Miss Oliver, he has scores of friends who unite in wishing him a long and happy wedded life. THE STORY OF A TEN DOLLAR BILL An Illustration for Those Who Patron ize Mail Order Houses. Mr. Brown keeps a boarding house. Around the table sits his wife Mrs. Brown; the village milliner Mrs. An drews; Dr. Black, the dentist; Mr. Jor dan, the carpenter, and Mr. Handley, the druggist. Mr. Brown took $10 out of his pocket book and handed it to Mrs. Brown with the remark that there was $10 toward the $20 he had promised her. Mrs. Brown handed the bill to Mrs. Andrews, the milliner, saying, "That pays for my new bonnet." Mrs. Andrews in turn gave it to Mr. Jordan, remarking that it would pay for the carpenter work he had done for her. Mr. Jordan handed it to Mr. Handley requesting his receipt bill for medicine used during the recent illness of his son. Mr. Handley gave the bill back to Mr. Brown saying, "That pays $10 onboard for my clerk." Mr. Brown again passed it to Mrs. Brown saying he had now paid her the $20 he promised her. She in turn paid Mr. Black to settle her dental account. Dr. Black handed it to Mr. Brown who remarked that it settled for his board. Whereupon Mr. Brown put it back in his pocket, remarking that he had not supposed a greenback would go so far. But supposing Mrs. Brown had sent to a mail order house for a new bonnet, then the $10 would have gone out of town and never would have come back. There is a moral in this story.
