A PLEASANT DAY
IN THE COUNTRY
Mr. and Mrs. J. H. 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. Gamble put in Friday
and Saturday most delightfully, being
a member of a geological party from
the State University which spent those
two days in exploring the hills and
bluffs along the Platte from Ashland to
the National Stone Quarries near Louis
ville. The party examined the geologi
cal formation, measured the heights of
the bluffs and collected other data of
much value. It was in charge of Dr.
Oor.dra of the University.
!!: au'.iti' !i Lo the geological party
here was a geographical party vorkinp
he country 'r the opposite side of the
rir with which wore two teachers in
i e .'''..f.smouth schools, Misses Nichols
! riorr.ing. Tiiis arty took the
.im'i a side of the Platte and came down
it ihe same time the other party was
00 ihe hills to the south. Poth parties
camped at youth Bend Friday night
and had a fine time. Prof. Gamble ar.d
Misses Nichols and Horning with David
White of this city, also a member of
fie geological party, came in Monday
morning on a freight train from Louis
ville. Highly Merited Honor.

CHANGE IN BUSI
NESS IN UNION
John R. Pierson Buys Controlling
Interest in Bank.
A deal of considerable magnitude
was consummated yesterday, when
John R. Pierson succeeded W. F. Tracy
as cashier and principal Btock holder in
the bank of Union. The preliminaries
were arranged last Saturday and the
formal transfers were made yesterday
Mr. Pierson purchasing also Mr.
Tracy's residence property.
Mr. Pierson needs no formal intro
duction to Union people, having estab
lished this bank and conducted it until
he sold it to Mr. Tracy about seven
years ago. He and his wife expect to
get settled in their new home here
about Dec. 1. Mr. Tracy retains some
stock in the bank, and although he has
no plans definitely made for the future,
he will probably engage in business at
some point in this state. He and his
wife will remain here until about the
first of December. Union Ledger.

BENFER'S SA
LOON CLOSED
Louis Rcinhackle Attaches Property
for Wages as Bar Tender.
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.
