TRADE IS SATISFACTORY
Improvement Promises to Make a Rec
ord for Current Year.
New York, Oct. 30. Bradstreet's
says: Trade as a whole Is good, or
better, the former word, In fact, be
ing hardly sufficient to characterize
the buoyancy and breadth of demand
shown in many lines. Industry, in turn,
responds with advices of manufactur
ers' order books full or overtime runs,
and general reports of an insufficiency
of labor to meet requirements. Alto
gether, the situation is very satisfac
tory, and the rate of Improvement In
the late months of the year promises
to place 1909 close to the front Jn the
list of years of prosperity. While
mild weather has tended to retard re
tail trade in some sections of tin
northwest, the general report is that
the advance of the season and the
marketing of the year's crop is bring
ing out a large volume of tride in the
country districts, while enlarging pay
rolls, fall festivals and state fajrs are
all helping to stimulate distribution
in the cities.

William Butler Departs by t e
Side-Door Pullman Route,
Same Way He Came
Old John Barleycorn, after a pro
longed rest and a general let-up in
his helllshness, cut loose again yes
terday and ensnared William Butler,
travelleur and globe clrcler, In his
tolls. Bill struck the city via the
side-door Pullman route over one of
the trunk lines which enter and de
part from our bustling little city,
and he was so much taken with the
outlook and the noise and roar of
traffic on the public ways that he
concluded to stop over and visit with
us. Anon ho found ono of those
places where the doors swing In and
out, and where nice, polite, white
aproned young men sell large foam
ing beakers to those who have a
thirst, and he purchased a number
of the same, adding for flavor a llttlo
out of the black bottle now and then.
Eventually he wandered out In the
highways and watched the tall build
ings do a ghost dance and perform
other strange and unusual capers,
which puzzled him greatly. While
contemplating these strange and
weird phenomenons nnd cogitating
within himself upon the peculiar as-,
pect of mundane things, Night Of
ficer Trout espied him and cnsu'ally
Interested himself in his case, even
tually thrusting upon Bill a night's
lodging with M. E. Manspeaker, de
facto If not de Jure Jailer. Bill did
not seriously object, as he was some
worried over the looks of the uni
verse anyway and wanted peace and
quietude. This morning he was some
better in mind, but still disturbed
over the outlook for the day when he
was arraigned before Judge M.
Archer, who paused in his rocket-like
race for county Judge to hear the
strange tale of William. Judge Archer
sympathized deeply with Bill In his
hallucinations about the tall build
ings and things, and unburdened
himself of many potent arguments
why William should cut out the
booze and hereafter tread the
straight and narrow path, winding up
his discourse with a fine of five simol
eons and costs, which said fine was
suspended providing William, In the
space of sixty minutes, put great lee
way between himself and this thriv
ing municipality. The happy solu
tion of the mystery by the Judge
sreatly relieved William, who de
parted rejoicing and marveling great
ly that Judge Archer, whoso record
for phllanthrophy nnd wisdom is
quite untnrnlshrd, Fhculd spend his
days In V. Is city wlu-p the rest of the
world whs rrrr'tinc ffr his services.
Likewise, WHMir- -'eparted as he

The Work on the Big Sewer U
Being Rushed to a
Finish.
Work on the new concrete sewer
which the Burlington Is engaged in
putting in from the shops to th
river, Is being pushed forward with
all possible speed. There Is a large
force of men now engaged In put
ting in the walls for the structure, a
great opening having been made un
der the main 'line tracks of the com
pany at a distance of several hun
dred yards south of the station. This
excavation Is being rapidly filled with
concrete walls and within a very short
tlmo drainage for the hollow occu
pied by the shops will be complete.
The new Bewer Is quite a good deal
larger than the old, and will be cap
able of carrying off an immense
amount of water. The only objec
tion which the company hns ever
made to the localon of their shops
In this city was that drainage was In
adequate and Hint the large territory
which tho hollow drained frequently
caused floods In the shops and yards
and resulted in damage to their prop
erty. With this evil obviated there
can bo no possible exception taken to
the property and extensive improve
ments and extensions can bo looked
for.
The big storm water sewer which
tho company projects along Lincoln,
avenue is also among the things
which are almost sure to be built.
This sewer will cost, it ia asserted.
$10,000, and will take care of the
flood waters which now rush down
the creek in that valley. It is to be
a very large one, with a capacity
guaranteed by the company engi
neers to carry the heaviest of floods.
The city stands ready to vacate all
land needed for its construction, and
the company has only to designate
what it wants to have its wishes com
plied with. The Commercial elub
has several matters under considera
tion in connection with the Burling
ton and, while nothing can be given
out officially at present, it can be
safely said that vast Improvements
are in the air and that Plattsmouth is
In an excellent position to reap the
benefit of changes which are contem
plated. The outlook is considered ex
tremely favorable for the city.
James Sage was a passenger this
morning for Glenwood, Ia., where he
has business matters to look after.
Mr. Sago has just concluded the pur
chase of the property formerly own
ed by A. F. Hunger, near Rock Bluff,
and expects to be ablo to soon dis
pose of it to another purchaser, as
he has had several inquiries In re
gard to it.
