Yeisinger Enter tain Friends, Including a Kum- t i ber of Plattsmoufh Gents. i I'r' iii Wi-iil:iys I:iiis j J. H. Meisinger and his estimable wife yesterday entertained a large j party of friends at their home near ! Louisville. As is always the case with those who visit the Meisinger's a very tine time was had and everyone partici pating were delighted with the trip. The weather was not so pleasant as might have been wanted but still it was not at all bad. The party which went out from this city comprised a meriy crowd of young men who went out determined to have an enjoyable visit and they had it. They went out on P. F. Budig's Denver Special with Joe Libershal as engineer of the nags and Ed. Donat as fireman, P. F. Buuig himself acting as conductor. They did not leave this city until 10:30 a. m. and it was 1:30 p. rn. before they arrived at their destination. They thoimnt they were too late for dinner but they did not know Mrs. Meisinger who surprised them with a realgtnuine feast. The call of dinner was the signal for a grand rush for the table which Fd. Donat succeeded in getting to first. Mrs. Meisinger had rooked nearly j erythinjr to be raised or to I.;.: had L; :h'S i-ouiitry and the entire roii,ii;ii: ire loud in praise of her fine meal. Despite the fact that there was 11 o.jntiful repast, when the pa' ty lef! the table there was not enough to leave even good pic-king for the crows whi"h was an eloquent testimonial to her cooking. The afternoon was very pleasantly spent, one feature being a shooting match between Anton Koubek, Joe Libershal, John Jaranek, Ed. Hronek and P. F. Budig. It was a target pool and Koubek won hitting the bull's eye once in three times while Libershal was second, he coming within a quarter oi an inch of the bull's eye. Mr. Mei singer lost a great many eggs by reason of tying up his dogs the boys gathering them in and forgetting to return them. As eggs are twenty-five cents a dozen, it will be much better to let loose the dogs. One highly enjoyable feature of the afternoon was the singing and instru mental music of Mr. Meisinger. He ( kept the many guests in a state of laughter and enthusiasm for some time. Ed. Donat also furnished a lot of amusement by attempting to grind the coffee for supper. He ground it but he worked awful hard. Mrs. Meisinger closed the day with a fine supper, an equal to the great dinner the party had had. The boys came home highly de lighted and full of thanks to their hosts. Those in attendance were Louis Born and family, Adam Meisinger and family, G. L. Meisinger and family, J. J. Mei singer and family, Anton Meisinger and family, S. Salberg and family, J. H. Meisinger and family, John Mei singer and wife, Messrs. J. G. Mei singer, Henry Meisinger, jr., Go. Thierolf, Joe Libershal, Anton Koubek, Ed. Donat, P. F. Budig, Ed. Hronek, John Juronek and Frank Koubek. Exploring the Hills and Bluffs. Prof. J. W.

Louis Keinhackle Saturday began an attachment suit before Justice Archer seeking to recover a debt of $."2.r0 alleged to be due him from F. C I'en fer as wages as barkeeper for several weeks in Henfer's saloon. The suit is the outgrowth of Henfer's continued absence from the city, he having left the city about one week ago for O'Neill where he stated he would register for the land drawing, and nothing more be ing heard of him. Last Thursday night the saloon was closed by Marshal Fitz gerald acting on the request of Mrs. Benfer. Fitzgerald entered the saloon about closing time on the night in ques tion accompanied by Mtb. Benfer and had Keinhackle, who was tending bar, turn over the keys of the place to him, he in turn handing them over to Mrs. Benfer. The saloon was then locked up and has been supposed to have re mained so ever since, although it is said there were other keys in existanee around town. In the case just filed an order of attachment was issued and levied by Constable Jack Denson on the goods in stock which appraised at the sum of $72.50. The case will be heard on the 23rd. Nothing has been heard of Benfer since he left this city and his wife is reported to have left the day following the close of the saloon. It is reported that his affairs are badly in : volved, and that large sums of money are owing different parties. The Blatz Brewing Company is reported to be the , heaviest creditors, the amount due ' them being said to be very large. The ! local creditor, are numerous and the amounts in some cases are rather large although the major portions of the bills are small. Considerable interest attaches to what action will be taken by those creditors who have large claims. Kodak's. Gering & Co. 14 frfrf L-, A-M 7i Plum "j "' " ' . L ,,. Mrrf..
