Adam Schaffer, one of the best
fellow 8 In the land, and mighty good
friend of tho Journal, was In the city
last Saturday, and of course made
this ofllce his usual pleasant cat!
While here he renewed for his paper
alHo far the copy going to his brother
George, at Ferguson, Neb. The
Journal Is mighty proud of Its weekly
subscription list, and tho many such
Cass county farmers ns the Schaffe
boys hnv made It wlint it Is. Come
From July 4th to the 9th Red
Men will Celebrate.
The action of the committee of the
Improved Order of Red Men In clos
ing a contract with the Brown shows
for July 4th, has been received with
delight by most of the members of
that order. This Insures Plattsmouth
plenty of attractions for the great
day and In connection with the mile
long parade, the music of the M. W
A. band,, the wrestling and boxing
contests and the turners drill, togeth
er with a number of other stunts,
promises to make this day the great
est the city ever had.
The Brown shows comprises nine
attractions, they being the Bebha Big
show, something which has proven a
winner wherever put on, the James
Boys In Missouri, a wild west fron
tier scene which is realistic and very
thrilling and which causes the audi
ence to set up and take notice, the Bo
hemian Glass Blowers, said to he the
greatest act of the kind ever put on
they being veritable wizards of the
glass, the Dixie Land Minstrels, a
black face show which Is ranked well
up with the best and which is full
of new music and up to date gags,
McFadden's, a highly original and
umorous act which pleases the entire
crowd and keeps them laughing from
the start to the finish. Skiddoo 23,
a katzenjammer castle which is full
of fun and frolic and also a myster
ious and strange performance, Nero,
the big snake: one of the monsters
of the reptilian world a sight well
worth seeing coming from the Jun
gles of Africa, the Ferris Wheel, a
great contrivance for the amusement
of young and old and a fine machine,
and a carousal which is of the cele
brated Parker make and worth pat
ronizing by those who like this form
of sport.
'With this list of paid attractions
and a grand balloon ascension or
possibly two if the committee so de
sires and a great and thrilling slide
for life from the top of the highest
edifice in the city to the earth a
feat in which a man suspended alone
by hla teeth to a slender wire slides
from a dizzy height to solid ground,
there can be no doubt of a great big
program. When it Is recalled that
the morning of the Fourth will see
one of the grandest street parades
ever given In the city, that there will
be able and eloquent orators pres
ent and that there will be many local
stunts on the program together with
the list of great attractions given
above there Is no doubt Plattsmouth
will show just what a real Fourth Is.
The agreement with the Brown
shows provides specifically that no
gambling devices are on the ground
and no Immoral or unclean exhibi
tions will be allowed. The commit
tee will cancel the contract If any
are attempted and the public Is as
sured that It can attend and be as
sured of protection.
A misunderstanding Beems to pre
vail In some quarters over the pro
posed parade on the morning of the
Fourth. This will certainly be held
whether a carnival company was se
cured or not. The business men are
asked to cooperate and help make
this a big Plattsoumth day. The
knocker has no place In Plattsmouth
now and the Fourth of July should
have the boost of everyone. Let the
commercial club lend Its help to the
Red Men who are trying to do some
thing for the city and let the bust
ness men add their Bhare and we will
all make Plattsmouth succeed.

Takes Enforced Layoff.
Homer Stapleton, a brakeman on
the Burlington, Is taking a layoff as
the result of a collision between two
parts of the train on which he was
working this morning. The train is
known as extra No. 2203. west bound,
and passed through this city this
morning about 5:30 a. m. Near Or
eapolla the train had slowed down
for the station and the semaphore
and when the latter showed clear, the
engineer Is presumed to have taken
up the slack In the train with so
much force that the coupling broke
between two of the cars and the first
section darted ahead. The air did
not set and the second section ran
ahead and caught up with the first
section, the engineer shutting off
steam as soon as he discovered what
had happened. Stapleton was sitting
In the caboose when the second sec
tion overtook the first and the force
of the collision hurled him against
the end of the car, resulting In severe
ly bruising his face and other minor
bruises. It was thought at first that
his right cheek bone was broken and
he was hurried hack to this city,
where the company surgeon made
an examination, disclosing that no
bones were broken but he had a very
badly battered up face. The injury
is a painful one and will keep him
off his work for several days but he
was very fortunate In not having
more severe injuries.
Solace For Malefactor.
Two prisoners escaped ' from the
Cass county jail last Saturday so we
glean from the Journal. One was
Grant Blunt, charged with robbing
freight cars, and Earl Morris who
burglarized Upton's store in Union.
According to reports, the prisoners
unscrewed a nut from a bolt, knocked
the bolt out and escaped. This could
of course have been accomplished by
just kicking against the wall, so they
say, but the boys wanted to do a pro
fessional job, and used their brains
In the work. To be sure Sheriff
Qurnton captured them and the boys
are in the den once more. The Jour
nal says the Jail is a frightful place
to be confined In and no fresh air
penetrates the building. We recom
mend an electric fan for the good peo
ple who are confined In the Jail and
deplore the fact that people confined
therein should be punished. Weep
ing Water Republican.

nursing a wounded. right hand today.
He was engaged this morning In put
ting a case of pop Into the ice box at
Ed. Egenberger'a where he is em
ployed, when one of the bottles ex
ploded with a loud bang, the glass
cutting the hand. The Injury Is not
dangerous but it is very inconveni
ent. The cause is probably tha too
high pressure to which the pop wa3
subjected when it was placed in the
bottle. The pop was of the straw
berry variety and It was thrown over
the hand when the bottle went to
pieces, giving him the appearance of
having one mitt blown off. He was
horrified when he looked at the hand
and believed he was In imminent dan
ger of bleeding to death. He had
to take his hand by the left hand and
move it around a few times to con
vince himself that he was all there.
A surgeon was called in and assured
him that the hand was still hung
on his arm and after he dressed the
injury, the young man felt better.
