Ciot a Hard Fall.
Judge A. N. Sullivan yesterday was
in Omaha in attendance upon court
and was made the subject of much
embarassment owing to a discol
ored and abraised probosis. He was
; beeseeched by his fellow practictioners
to explain to them how it came about
and his explanation was the cause of
a great deal of sympathy. The facts
of the matter are that the Judge
was on his way home Saturday night,
carrying a basket of articles on his
arm when climbing the hill near
Judge Newell's, he caught his toe
in the sidewalk and was thrown to
the ground striking upon his nose
and knocking the skin off it. The
basket being on his arm doubtless
saved him from a more serious fall.
He arose quickly to his feet and pro
ceeded home where his appearance
scared his family greatly until it
was found that he was practically
uninjured, the gory appearance he
presented being caused by the nose
bleed. The accident was directly
owing to the unlighted condition of
the streets, the night being very
dark and he being unable to see
the rise between the two walks. He
was very fortunate in escaping as
easily as he did for such a fall in
most cases would have resulted in a
broken nose at the very least. He
was able to be about his business
as usual today and presented little
signs of the disaster save a discol
ored and abraised nose.
Quite Sick.
Some days since Capt. L. Enyart
was taken ill and has since been
quite sick. He is suffering from
pneumonia. The attack is not a
severe one and only a portion of one
lung is involved. He is considerable
better today, but as yet is quite ill.
Because of his age pneumonia is
dangerous to him, it matters not how
light it may be. It is to be hoped
that he will soon recover. Nebraska

Herman Herold, living at corner
First and Rock streets, Wintersteln
Hill. Plattsmouth, Neb., says: "I first
told the people of Plattsmouth in
November 1?02. that Doan's Kidney
Pills procured at Gering & Co.'s drug
store, had been used in our family
with the best of results. I had taken
them but a short time when I was re
lieved from pain in my back that had
bothered me some time. This three
and a half years ago and I have not
suffered as severely from backache
since. I have had some slight re
currence of the trouble when I have
taken cold and during damp weather.
but Doan's Kidney Pills have never
failed to promptly and thoroughly
banish the annoyance. My daughter
also used this remedy and received
excellent results.
CHANGE IN
BUSINESS
Earl Barclay Disposes of Restaurant
to New Firm
From Tuesday's Daily.
Announcement is made that the
restaurant heretofore operated by
Earl Barclay today passed into other
hands, Mr. Barclay disposing of his
interests to John Hatt, jr., and Dick
Osbourne who will operate the place
in the future. The news of the
change will be received with surprise
as no inkling of such a deal being
made had been given out. The new
firm takes over a good business, Mr.
Barclay having built it up in fine shape
since it passed into his hands some
nine or ten months since.. It now
has one of the best if not the best,
trade in the city and has a line of
patrons who are thoroughly pleased
with their treatment at Mr. Barclay's
hands.
The new proprietors are well
known in this city and the vicinity.
Mr. Hatt being the junior member
of the firm of Hatt & Son and a pop
pular and enterprisinng young man
while Mr." Osbourne has but recently
returned to this city from St. Joe,
Mo., going into partnership with his
brother Oliver in the restaurant bus
iness in the Gund building. He was
formerly connected with Dove3-,s in
this city and is an excellent gentle
man in every respect. That the new
firm will maintain the high standard
that Mr. Barclay has set there is lit
tle doubt and the very best patron
age is bespoken them. They expect
to keep the restaurant right up to
the minute in every respect and to
serve the public in such a manner
that no complaint will be forthcom
ing. Should they do as well as Mr
Barclay has done there is small prob
ability of any complaint.
It is not known what the consider
ation was as it has not yet been made
public pending the final details of
the transfer. In a conversation with
a Journal representative Mr. Barclay
states that his only reason for sell
ing was because he had other pro
jects in this city ia sight and felt that
he could not handle them all at
once. Just what these projects are
is not stated but it is comforting to
know that he does not contemplate
severing his connection with this
city, for which he has done his full
share.
It is expected to close the deal this
afternoon and that by tomorrow the
new firm will be in complete posses
sion. For that

M. G. Kime went to the corn show
in Omaha Wednesday, and reports it
well worth the trip as an educator,

the perspiration from his brow and
shouting "Gee, Pete." It was well
patronized.
William H. Porter is getting very
popular. The Missouri Pacific has
contracted with him for the digging

Monday. The law compels them to
have wells at all their cattle yards
and there is a heavy penalty attached
to the failure to have them in a very
few days, hence the great rush to
have them dug.

Lawyer Gering's Absence Prevents
Leyda-Bank Case Coming Up
Yesterday was the day set for hear
ing the two motions filed by the de
fendants in the case of John M.
Leyda. trustee, vs. Matt, and Henry
Gering and the First National Bank
of Plattsmouth, before the federal
court at Lincoln. Owing to the ab
sence of Matthew Gering who is the
principal counsel for the defense and
who is at present engaged in trying
a murder case in Iowa, the hearing
was not had. As soon as he can re
turn to argue the motions the hear
ing will be taken up by Judge Munger
who is sitting on the bench at Lin
coln. The case is that brought by John
M. Leyda as trustee to recover from
Matthew and Henry tiering and the
First National Bank of Plattsmouth
the sum of $5,000 which he alleges
the defendants have unlawfully di
verted from the general creditors of
Henry Herold and applied upon their
own indebtedness. The case grows
out of the bankruptcy proceedings of
Herold who a short time previous to
the failure transferred his stock to
the Gerings who in turn sold it and
turned the money over to the bank.
There are unsatisfied claims of gen
eral creditors amounting to about
$15,000 and it is the . contention of
