FORD FOR NEW PAVING Firm of McMaken & Son of ThU Get Sub-Contract for Curbing and the Matter Will Soon Be Under Way. ST. MARY'S GUILD MEETS .LI From Wednesday's Dally. At a special meeting of the city council last night, the bond of M. Ford and the contract was approved by the council. All of the council men were present except Mr. Will of the third ward. M. Ford was represented at the meeting by C. F. Harkness and the bond of the contractor for $16, 000 executed by Roily ,E. Jackson with the power of attorney attached authorizing Mr. Jackson to execute the bond. ' The surety on the bond is the "Bankers Surety company" of Cleveland, Ohio. The bond is con ditioned for the faithful perform ance of the contract and the furnish ing of all labor and material. The contract specifies that the brick pavement shall be laid on a sub base of cement and sand. The cement base is to be four inches in thickness, over this will be two inch es of sand for a cushion on which - the brick will be laid. The brick paving in on Sixth street is laid on a sub base of brick lying flat and cov ered with sand, but the cement base is much better and gives better serv ice and will out wear the brick sub base. The curb will be put in by McMak en & Son who have the sub contract for this part of the work. The curb will be of cement and are to be twen ty Inches deep and four inches wide. There are 4657 feet of curb, and the work on the curb will be commenced right away. The cement curb will be run Into the forms on either side of the street and the whole of this work will prob ably occupy a week. As soon as the curbs are in M. Ford will be on hand with a force of men and teams to grade the dirt from the streets pre paratory to putting down the sub base for the sand and brick. Four cars of cement for the sub base have already arrived and are being un loaded at the Burlington yards. The hauling is all done by McMaken & Son. The M. Ford people are ready to put their force in as soon as the curbing is in. And if the good weath er prevails for a short time the good citizens of Plattsmouth will soon have the satisfaction of walking on the new paving in the third district. The ladles of the St. Mary's Guild of the St. Luke's church met at the pleasant home of Mrs. L. A. Moore in the west part of the city yesterday afternoon and following the regular business session'whUh was held dur ing the early part of the afternoon, enjoyed a most delightful time. So cial conversation and varlouu amuse ments were Indulged in, which made the time pass all too rapidly. At the proper time a dainty luncheon was served by the honest, os s sled by her daughter, Mm. Stiv ers of Grant, Neb. This luncheon was served out on the lawn which surrounds the Moore home and like wise all the more thoroughly enjoy ed. There were a large number of the ladies in attendance. BIDS FOR THE NEW POST OFFICE BUILDING OPENED Washington, Sept 19. Bids were opened today at the treasury depart ment for the construction of the pub lic buildings at Plattsmouth, Neb. The bidders were as follows: General Conrtruction company of Milwaukee, $48,866; Lattlmer & Benning, Kan sas City, $48,847; McHenry-Beatty company, East Liverpool, 0., $47, 700; Hiram-Lloyd Building company, St. Louis, $57,444; J. H..Wiese, So. Omaha, $47,826; Northern Construc tion company, Milwaukee, $48,800; King Lumber company, Charlottsvll le, Va., $49,000. State Journal. It will be noticed that the lowest bid in the above list is $47,700, this would only leave $2,300 of the ap propriation for the purpose of pro curing the fixtures, which Is not be lieved would be sufficient. It has been the tenor of the correspond ence on the subject of the building here, that the wish of the committee in charge, to get the building placed on the grounds for $46,000, leaving the remainder of the appropriation or $4,000 for the fixtures. It is not believed that there will be further delay, however, and that either fixtures of a lower price will be procured or an additional small appropriation be secured. The Lasli of a Fiend would have been about as welcome to A. Cooper of Oswego, N. Y., as a mer ciless lung-racking cough that defied all remedies for years. "It was most troublesome at night," he writer, "nothing helped me till I used Dr. King's New Discovery which cured me completely. I never cough at night now."

Julius Pits was called to Council Bluff3 in a hurry this morning to get some repairs for his thresher separator. Mr. Pitts started up to thresh this morning and had run but about ten minutes when something gave way on the separator, causing the force to stop until repairs can be gotten from the Bluffs. Remedies are Needed Were we perfect, which we are not, medicines would not often be needed. But since our systems have be come weakened, impaired and broken down through indiscretions which have done on from the early ages, through countless generations, remedies art needed to aid Nature in correcting our inherited and otherwise acquired weaknesses. To reach the seat of stomach weakness and consequent digestive troubles, there is nothing so good as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov ery, a glyceno compound, extracted from native medio inal roots sold for over forty years with great satisfaction to all users.

CLEMENT APPOINT ED BURLINGTON AGENT Division Superintendent Flynn of the Burlington of Omaha was in the city yesterday and appointed Mr. William Clement agent at the station here to succeed W. L. Pickett, de ceased. A more popular appoint ment could not have been made. And a man better equipped to fill the po sition could not be found in the serv ice. Mr. Clement was born in this city and when a boy went Into the service of the company as a mess enger, soon learning to operate the telegraph, and has been the day op erator at this station for a number of years. He is conversant with every phase of the railway business, and the promotion to agent at Platts mouth, conies to him well merited. thoroughfare. There was no reason assigned for their decision, not one of them made a speech explaining his vote, and the disappointed Plattsmouth citizens and members of the commercial club who had anticipated a ride to the coun try over a no hill road had their hopes shattered by the negative ac tion of the county board. The reso lution was called up on their return and passed around the table in the commissioner's room, and each com missioner promptly and with dis patch signed his name to a negative vote. ' The board had a pleasant ride, go ing out to view the road In Dr. Cum mins' touring Ford, which seemed to have no difficulty in climbing the hills between here and Rock niuffs. This may have been a mistake on the part of the commercial club in allow ing the board to go so comfortably. If they could have, been in some other sort of a machine, which had laid down on the hills, and allowed the commissioners a chance to climb a hill or two on foot, the vote might have been different. It Is up to the commercial club now to make the road. Joe McMaken or Walter White or some other practi cal dirt handler should be taken out to Inspect the route and make an estimate of the cost of the road. The project has hardly had a fair shov to be put through, no member of the club has been present with the com missioners to urge the practicability of the level road, and the matter should not be allowed to stop with the present effort. If the matter Is properly brought to the attention of the board at some later time, and the cost figured bo that there would be some basis to do the work on, the road may be had yet. In District Couit. F. P. Sheldon as administrator of the Leroy Applegate estate has filed a petition in the district court ask ing for a license to sell real estate be longing to the estate. Cases to quiet title have been com menced In the district court entitled Myrtle P. Atwood against Charles Beasly and other defendants and by Samuel H. Atwood and the Anselmo B. Smith Investment company against James Raines and others, also one by Anselmo B. Smith against Will lam S. Graff and others. All peti tions being filed by Clark & Robert son as attorneys.

Many Plattsmouth People Have Done So. When the kidneys are sick they give unmistakable warnings that should not be Ignored. Sick kidneys expel a dark, ill-smelling urine, full of "brlckdust" sediment and painful in passage. Sluggish kidneys cause a dull pain in the small of the back, headaches, dizzy spells, tired, languid feelings and frequently rheumatic twinges. Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kid neys only; they cure sick kidneys, and rid the blood from any of the above symptoms you can use no better rem edy. Plattsmouth people recommend Doan's Kidney Pills. John Mackey, a farmer, Third St., Dyke St., Plattsmouth, Neb., Bays: "Two and one half years ago my back became very lame and I had head aches. The kidneys secretions contain ed a sediment and a frequent desire to void them caused me much annoy ance. I was unable to find a remedy that would bring me any permanent relief and I was at a loss to know what to do. Seeing Doan's Kidney Pills highly recommended in the lo cal papers, I procured a box from Ger ing & Co.'s drug store and began their use. This remedy brought me immediate relief and at the present time my back does not bother me In the least. I am very grateful to Doan'a Kidney Pills for what they have done for me."

HE SOU Mil" PLEASES PEOPLE Pierce Company Gives Splendid Production at the Parmele One of the best plays that nas been held at the Parmele In a long time was "The Squaw Man" last night. Those who have read the book say it was played to perfection. Edwin Westfield as James Wynne gate, and afterwards known as Jim Carson, was simply grand in both these characters. Miss Kathryn Van Esse as Lady Diana was good. Like all such plays, that open up in Old England and end in the wilds of America, create a great interest from start to finish, and there is always one character that captures the sym pathy of the audience and it stays with that character through the en tire play. Edwin Westfield was the character in this case, and his ap pearance on the stage denoted a true specimen of young manhood. He was a fine actor, and as "The Squaw Man" done nobly. Ills support was good in every particular and the audi ence was well pleased. The Journal can say without fear of contradic tion that "The Squaw Man" was one of the most interesting plays ever prosecuted at the Parmele. NEW GASOLINE ENGINE ON EXHIBITION AT BAUER STG7.E Came From Alliance. T. W. Swan of Union and Jesse Hufty of Alliance, arrived from the west on No. 2 last evening and were met at the train by William, James and Charles Swan, who motored from Union last evening. Mr. Hufty is a real estate dealer from the west and expects to interest some of Cass coun ty's men in lands in his vicinity. It Saved His Lctf. "All though I'd lose my leg," writes J. A. Swensen of Watertown, Wis. "Ten years of eczema, that 15 doctors could not cure, had at last laid mo up. Then Bucklen's Arnica Salve cured It, sound and well."

Virgil Mullls went to St. Joseph hoHpltnl this afternoon to nee Mrs. MiiIIIh for a few hours. Appointed S(Hclal Appraiser. A. L. Tldd who has been appointed special appraiser In the John Leutch ens estate went out to Weeping Wa ter yesterday and viewed the 480 acre farm of the deceased in order that he might be better fixed to mark the value of the land. The will of the deceased devises the lands to the widow of the deceased, and the law assesses an Inheritance tax on the ex cess of $10,000, going to any one heir of a deceased property owner. The farm lies three and a half mil es west of Manley, and Is in fine agr icultural district of the county, and very valuable. -Mr. Tldd has not yet filed his appraisement of the prop erty. But It Is altogether probable that the tax is going into the road fund from this estate will be a neat sum. L. G. Larson made a business trip to Glenwood this morning, going to that place on No. 4. Yesterday afternoon the new gaso line engine, arrived and was set up at John Bauer & Son's store for Inspec tion. The machine bean the label of the Maquoketa Iron Works of Maquoketa, Iowa. There Is but a few hundred dollars of stock yet un subscribed, before the required amount to get the iron works re moved to Plattsmouth. It can readily be understood why the proprietor is anxious to remove from that location when one reflects that this engine was loaded at the factory on the 12th Inst, and re quired eight days to come the short distance, all because the factory Is located on a branch line of railway, and shipping facilities very poor. The pattern sent Is an upright, 4 horse power, and those who have Been it are much Impressed with lt.J work. . The engine was set In motion this morning and was the center of quite a crowd of Interested citizens. As soon as the engine is tested and the dealers In this sort of machinery approve the engine, the result will be announced in the Journal. Looking up Market. C. I. Gardner of Billings, Montana..
