The Structure Will be Modern
and Will Surely be Built.
. Since the article appearing In the
Journal of yesterday came out, a rep
renresentlve of this paper has talked
"n.ii Air. Tollock and he confirms the
item of yesterday and kindly exhibit
ed a blue print map of the Intended
bridge. The bridge will consist of
three steel spans similar to the Bur
lington and M. P. new bridges, six
teen feet in width, and forty-five
wooden spans each thirty-two feet in
length, ten feet wide with turn-outs,
for the passing teams. The bridge
will rest on thirty foot piling driven
Into 6teel tubes which will be filled
with concrete, rendering the structure
impregnable to ice gorges. The floor
will be three Inches thick and rest
on 4x16 inch stringers to be of fir or
wood equally durable. The bridge
will be constructed Just as soon as it
can be done, after the preliminary
steps are completed. Their right of
way has been secured on the north
side of the river, and only a short
distance yet remains to be secured on
this side.
The promoters propose to have the
county open the road to the bridge,
which will be located east of the Bur
lington bridge sixty feet. The enter
prise is a good one and will be a great
accommodation to the travelling pub
lic. Invited to Hit the Pike.
The police were called to the White
Elephant building last night to quiet
wo rebellious females who were mak
ing the night hideous with profanity
and vile language. The force found
there two women in a beastly state of
intoxication. They were in company
with a young man who claimed to be
a fireman on the Burlington. The
young fireman had been a boarder
at the Perkins, but had changed his
boarding place for the reason that
he frequently was called out in the
middle of the night and he wanted
to be in a place where he could get
his meals any time In the night. The
trio were hauled before Judge Archer
this morning where the women gave
their names as "Daisy Oaks" and
"Hat Worth." A plea of guilty was
entered to the charge of drunkenness
and foul language. The Judge then
drew forth his celebrated brand of
Justice and assessed $50 and costs to
each of the women and $5 to the
fireman for being In bad company
and taken in a house of Ill-fame.
The magistrate kindly Informed
the women there were three ways out
of the difficulty for them: pay the
fine, go to Jail, or leave the city.
They close the latter and the court
then suspended the sentence until 2
p. m., to allow them time to pack
their belongings and get out of the
town.

great big vacancy over there now.
John Whiteman was in town Mon

and then he came on crutches. He
stepped crooked on his ankle some

he has been unable to walk on it

signed a petition, expressing a strong
preference for Professor E. E. Collins
to be retained in our school for next
year. This petition is signed by about
ninety persons. Professor Collins
has the respect and confidence of
his patrons and pupils. He Is a
young man of industrious habits,
clean, moral, pleasing personality and
strong teaching ability. It will be a
keen disappointment if he leaves Ne
hawka school this coming year.
Why Are Fggs High?
There seems to be no real

price
reason for the continued high
of eggs, fhe aesessors report for
the year for Cass county, 1910, show
ing that the poultry valuation in
Cass county has doubled In the past
year. The same is true for the other
counties of the state. The assessed
value of poultry for the year 1909
for this county reached the sum of
$10,441, as again $5,772 In the year
1909. At the same rate of In
crease over the state the showing is
a big thing for the poultry industry,
and it would seem that the price of
eggs may some time show a slight
decrease.

Mr. and Mrs. James Sage Visit
Texas and Oklahoma Points
James Sage and wife who went on
an excursion with the Burton D.
Hurd Land company to near Galves
ton, Texas, two weeks ago, returned
Thursday evening well pleased with
what they saw in Texas.
Mr. and Mrs. Sage speak very
highly of the treatment given them
by Mr. Hurd's company, every atten
tion was shown them and their ev
ery comfort looked after from the
time they left Kansas City until their
return.
Mr. and Mrs. Sage loft Plattsmouth
on the 19th day of July, going direct
to St. Joe, Mo. The crops between
this place and St. Joe are not very
good, but there will be some corn,
the small grain seemed to have been
good from the appearance of the
fields.
From Topeka, Kan., to the gulf
there will be almost no corn as the
hot winds have cooked the corn crop
in that locality. Through Kansas and
Oklahoma the wheat and oats crops
were good and the shocks of grain
were thick in the fields. The cotton
crop In southeran Oklahoma and Tex
as was good and will make almost
a full crop.
The Hurd Land company is de
veloping an Irrigating plant extending
over a large area of country sur
rounding Matagorda, taking the wat
er from the Trespalashes river and
conveying it into large canals and
storing it for future use. Thousands
of acres have been placed under the
ditch and will be used for rice grow
ing. Huge pumping stations with
pumps which will throw a stream of
water four feet in diameter have
been constructed and the water was
to have been turned on two days af
ter Mr. and Mrs. Sage left the place
A new town has started and has
something over a thousand popula
tion, and the town Is not yet a year
old. The company are offering these
lands in tracts from five acres to
160 acres. The lands which were
selling six months ago at $35 per
acre are now selling at $50 and $60
per acre.
The colony is about twelve miles
from Galveston, and the climate is
excellent. While the sun was hot
through the day, yet In the shade
the breeze from the gulf was cool and
refreshing.
The travellers went bathing in the
Matagorda bay and enjoyed the stlm
ulating effect of the salt water
which they found invigorating. They
spent a week looking over the Hurd
company s proposition In company
with the car load of prospectors
which the company had brought from
Chicago and picked up en route. Sev
eral sales were made while others
were so much interested In the enter
prise that they declared their lnten
tion of visiting the place again.
The fruits of the tropics were in
abundance; lemons, oranges and fig
were in evidence, peanuts was a sta
pie crop there.
Mrs. Sage brought home a sped
men of the "Sweet Magnolia bios
som" which had not lost its beauty
though the delicate perfume which
it had was gone. The perfume of
the Magnolia In bloom is like that
of the tube rose very delicate and
sweet.
After spending the week at Bless
ing, Texas, near the pumping plant
of the company, Mr. and Mrs. Sage
went by boat for twenty miles on th
Matagorda bay and the river leading
into it. They then returned to Ok
lahoma and spent a short time at th
farms of Mr. Sage near Minco, then
going to Oklahoma City they stopped
there a short time and visited friends
The crops about Minco and El Reno
are burned up, that Is the corn crop
the small grain there was fairly good
Mr. and Mrs. hage were well pleas
ed with their southern trip and ex
pect to visit the Texas proposition
again before long.

Thayer County Crops Gootl.
Mrs. Harding of Hebron, Neb., was
the city yesterday attending a
meeting of the finance committee of
the Degree of lienor. Mrs. Harding
says that the crops in Thayer county
re generally good, occasionally there
a poor piece of corn where the
farming was poor. A two inch rain
fell there last Sunday which put the
corn crop on the way for enormous
ield. The corn had not suffered for
rain at all this season in that locality.
It will take one or two more rains yet
to make the crop, but these will not
be needed for two weeks or more.
The small grain crops were heavy,
wheat and oats making an excellent
ield.
McMaken & Sons Have Pur
chases Machinery for Making
Grave Vaults.
McMaken & Son have Just ordered
machinery for making cement fence
posts, and a machine for making
building blocks. This enterprising
firm has already constructed a num
ber of cement grave vaults of the
Stephens patent and have them ready
for use. These vaults are air tight
when in place and water proof also.
The whole of the basement under
their double office building is devoted
to the manufacture of concrete into
one urseful and durable device or an
other. Their display of porch posts
is remarkable. They have on hand
models and samples of their work in
cluding various designs of these
porch posts. They are square-pannel,
smooth round, Hutted round, with
bases of different designs. The firm
have already made several Grecian
lawn vases, which will be an orna
ment to any porch or lawn in any
city. A large variety of moulds have
already been secured at much ex
pense and McMaken & Son are going
to be strictly in the concrete business.
There will be nothing in this line
which will not be made where there
Is any call for the goods. A number
of men will be employed steadily and
the block and post business will no
doubt be large. Some of the best
residences in other cities are con
structed of concrete blocks. Colonel
McMaken has made an effort to buy
lots adjacent to their office building
so as to have room to place their
manufactured articles and this would
render the storage question easy.
And in a short time the premises will
look like a marble quary If the help
can be gotten to push the Industry.
W. C. T. U.
The social meeting of the W. C.
T. U., was held yesterday afternoon
at the home of Mrs. L. A. Moore.
The day being pleasant a goodly
number were present. The depart
ment of franchise was the study of
the day and was under the leader
ship of the president, Mrs. Kerr. Af
ter the business was dispatched, the
program of music, readings and ad
dresses was thoroughly enjoyed. The
hit of the meeting was the little poem,
'Direct from Home" given by little
Miss Annla Miller in a very practical
manner. Light refreshments were
served and all felt that a pleasant
and profitable afternoon had been
spent.
The union was glad to welcome
Mrs. Vandercook who has for so many
months been laid up with'a broken
ankle. The county .convention will
be held at Weeping Water on 23 and
24 of this month and a large delega
tion from Plattsmouth hope to at
tend. A letter from W. R. Jackson,
candidate for state superintendent
read and indorsed. Next meeting
on August 15.
Fair Association Disband.
The MenawKa Fair association met
Monday afternoon and voted to turn
the remaining funds, about eighty
dollars' over to the commercial club,
and putting the matter of an annual
entertainment up to the organization.
This action was taken because of the
fact when the commercial club was
formed last winter, it was the under
standing that they would provide for
all social entertainments for the bene
fit of the town. The matter of fair is
now up to the club who will meet in
the near future to decide.
There did not seem to be much en
thusiasm in favor of having anything
In the nature of a fair, largely on ac
count of the conditions of crops. How
ever, the people around here can rest
assured that we will have something
If it is nothing but a good old fash
loncd picnic. Nehawka News.

11 OLD PIUS OF 010E AND
CASS COUNTIES 10 MEET AMI
The Annual Reunion Will Occur at Town of Ur.ion on Friday and
Saturday, August 19th and 20th
Ouce more the old settlers of Otoe
and Cass counties will mingle with
each other at Union on Friday and
Saturday, August 19 and 20. These
annual gathers are looked forward
to with great pleasure by the pion
eers of these two counties, as they
come together on these occasions and
talk over the hardships which sur
rounded them In the early settlement
of Nebraska. The rood citizens of
Union make every effort In their
power to make their reunions rleas
ant for all who attend, and this year
will be no exception to the rule.
If possible, the reunion v ill be
much larger and much more Interest
ing than ever and the good people of
Union will spare no pnin3 to make
It such. They are preparing an ex
cellent program for both days. On
Friday, August 19, Mayor Dahlman
of Omaha, one of the Democratic can
didates for governor, will bo present
to address the people. Other local
speakers will also bo present. Other
Interesting features will be presented,
such as vocal and Instrumental music,
declamations, etc. On Saturday,
August 20, A. L. Blxby, of the Lin
coln State Journal, will be the prin
cipal speaker, and he is a good one.
AT
They Win Third Game at Mal
vern, and Get the Fifty
Dollars.
The Plattsmouth ball team won
third place in the contest at Malvern
with teams from Omaha, Council
Bluffs and Malvern. Manager. Ed.
Brantner says he was up against a
stiff proposition at Malvern which he
will not encounter again. In the
future meet at Tabor every team will
be allowed twelve players, and the
names of the men have to be regis
tered before the game opens. At
Malvern, the team from Council
Bluffs and Omaha exchanged play
ers, having fresh men on the diamond
every game, while the Red Sox play
ed the same men from start to finish.
The score In yesterday's game stood
5 for Plattsmouth and 4 for Malvern.
The surroundings were not of the
best, as the boys were out most of
the night, and the tents were so cold
that sleep was impossible. Some of
the men have hard colds from the.
exposure.
With a day to rest the team ex
pects to be in shape to clean up the
Invlncibles In the game tomorrow.

Otber speakers will be there on this

which is composed of Otoe and Cass
counties.
The grove in which the reunion Is
to be held is an ideal place for such
gatherings, and the grounds will be
supplied with everything to make the
old pioneers feel at home. For the
younger generation amusements to
Interest them will be arranged for.
A good ball game will take place each
day, and several different races will
take place each day. The M. W. A.
band of this city will probably fur
nish music for both days and this
will Insure music galore. The Red
Men of this city are arranging to at
tend en masse and camp on the
grounds. In fact, everybody that can
get away, will go down and attend
at least ono dny. Those who have
attended these reunions know it will
bo hard to Improve on those held In
the past, but the people of the thriv
ing and energetic village of Union
are going to show the people who
will be there that this year eclipses
all past records. Friday and Satur
day, August 19 and 20, will be verit
able red letter days for Union.
The prize taken at Malvern was
$50, but with the expense to meet,
the management will be $20 to the
bad. There are many different opin
ions as to the cause of the loss of the
second day's game, hardly any two
of the opinions are the same. But
we hope the boys will buckle down
to business from this on and regain
their lost ground. There are some
very Important events in the future,
and the team has yet sufficient op
portunity to get back to their old
form.
Will Put In Furnace.
Rev. liartmann, pastor the church,
accompanied by Wm. Rahwlnklo,
Herman Schllerfert and son Oliver,
were in the city today to examine the
heating plant In the Methodist church
with a view of having a like plant

Louisville. The party composed some
of the best citizens of Cass county.
They came down by the auto route
and departed on their return about
noon.
Harry Graves of the Union Ledger
today closed a contract with the Red
Fox management for a game by our
boys at the Old Settlers' picnic which
begins a two days session at Union
August 19th. The Red Fox will bo
pitted against the All Stars of Lin

you don't need
es; but you better
think twice before you pass
up this opportunity. We
sold two suits yesterday to
traveling salesmen; they
saw suits in the windows
at our "Oust 'em Out"
prices and came in and
bought.
Neither of the men were
under obligations to buy
of us and, the thought of
buying a suit in Platts
mouth had never entered
their heads until fliey saw
by our windows what won
derful values we are giving
These men will each get
the satisfaction of the new
suits now and through the
fall, and have them for the
next season. It's a good
idea.
