Nebraska, September 23, 1910 CUPID Id EVIDENCE AT lirUAUl ni l mi n I Mew Marvels Should Conservation Be The following from the Lincoln Evening News of yesterday, gives a more complete account of the career of the late Samuel Waugh, whose death was announced in lu3t even ing's Journal, than we have been able to produce: Samuel Waugh who for four years was vice consul to Germany ond for several years a well known banker of Nebraska, died at an early hour this morning at the family home, 2503 O street. For the last three years he had been a victim of pro gressive paralysis, and his death was not unexpected. Mr. Waugh Is survived by a wid ow, three sons and four daughters. The children are Mrs. F. C. Buchtel and Mrs. W. R. Arndt, both of Den ver; Misses Florence and Helen of Lincoln; Fred of Omaha, and Samuel and Bryan of Lincoln. One son, John R., is dead. The funeral which will be private, will be held at the resi dence Sunday afternoon. Burial will be In Wyuka cemetery. Mr. Waugh was born In Brook county, West Virginia, In 1844. He entered Princeton university and was graduated from that Institution In 1868. While pursuing his studies at Princeton he took an active part In athletics. He was a member of the 'varsity base ball team of that uni versity in the sixties. A few years after his graduation Mr. Waugh came to Nebraska, locat ing at Crete, where he engaged in the banking business. In 1875 he was married to Miss Flora Rawlins at West Point, Neb. While at Crete Mr. Waugh was ap pointed vice counsel to Germany with headquarters at Chennitz, Saxony. He served In this capacity for four years, from 1876 to 1800. N. K. Griggs, who was found dead on a train at Alli ance a few weeks ago, was counsel to Germany at the time. Returning to Nebraska, Mr. Waugh again engaged in the banking busi ness at Crete. At this place he was closely associated with Archibald Scott, who was paying teller at the First National bank and who died In the city last night. From Crete Mr. Waugh moved with his family to Ashland to take up the same line of business. Later he re moved to Plattsmouth where he was connected with the First Uational bank of that place. He was cashier of the latter Institution for several years. Five years ago he moved to Lincoln with his family. INTERESTING CASE IN JUSTICE ARGHER'S COURT From Saturday's Dally. Judge M. Archer was engaged In the trial of a damage suit in which Charles Matous of Havelock is plain tiff and Edward Donat, defendant. The amount in controversy Is $48 and attorney fees of $100, and grew out of the assignment of the claim of $48 by Mr. Donat to a Kansas City party who brought suit on the claim in the Missouri Jurisdiction and tied up the plaintiff's wages amounting to some thing over $80 for a period of about to months. Mr. Matous employed an attorney at Lincoln and one at Kan sas City and contested the attach ment suit, having the same dismiss ed, and this expense and statutory penalties is what he seeks to recover in the suit on trial today. The case has some Interesting features, as the court In which the attachment suit was brought was one of the sort some attorneys style "rabbit courts," and it appears that the legality of this court has been questioned and Its acts not all sanctioned by the super ior courts of Missouri. Attorney A. L. Tidd appears for Mr. Matous whil Judge A. N. Sullivan tried the case for Mr. Donat. If you want help or nave anytnlnr o sell, advertise In the Journal ' Fine Honey. Julius NeLlson, engineer In the Burlington yards, brought to ' the Journal office Thursday evening a couple of pounds of the finest honey that ever was placed upon a hot bis cuit. Clear as a crystal and as sweet as the bees could make It, and now maybe you think It wasn't tooth some and delicious? Eh! Julius Is a worker among the bees at odd times and has been very successful. He has quite a number of hives and by close attention to them they produce quite a quantity of the "sweetness," over and above of what Is used for home consumption, which always finds a ready sale upon the market. Thanks, Julius, and "may you live long and your shadow never grow less." Enjoyable Visit. From Saturday's Dally. Jas. A. Walker of Murray came up on the early morning train today, accompanied by his cousin, J. C. Walker, of Pittsburg, Pa., whom he has not seen for some years, ana who paid him and his family a short visit. They boarded the early morn ing Burlington train eastward bound for Ottumwa, la., where they go to visit another cousin, Tom Walker, of that city, where they no doubt will have the time of their lives. Mr. Walker will return home" about Mon day evening at which time J. C. Walk er will pursue his Journey homeward. The Culmination of a Pretty Romance Beginning About Two Years Ago. John I. Long, the hustling editor of the Nehawka News, would, evi dently, make a good reporter for a daily, as he has a sly way of getting on to incidents several days before they occur. Here Is the way he re lates a wedding that Is soon to occur In which a prominent young man of Nehawka is a party thereto: The culmination of a pretty ro mance that has Its beginning a couple of years ago, will be the marriage next Wednesday, September 2S, at the home of the bride's parents at Parker, South Dakota, of Miss Lois Wiltse of that place and J. J. Pollard of Nehawka. Miss Wiltse taught school here for the two years prior to this term and during this time "Jimmie" laid Blege to and won her heart, and while the outcome surprises none, the fact that this paper Is able to foretell the event so accurately may be a surprise to some, as Mr. Pollard has the reputa tion of keeping things of vital Inter est to himself. However, we wish to assure the parties most concerned, that no one has told, and the con clusion is but the composite result of a nose for news, possessed by the whole staff of this paper. The fact that people talk in their sleep has nothing to do w ith it. Miss Wiltse won a host of friends during her residence here and by winning ways and lovable disposi tion endeared herself to all with whom she became acquainted. No small evidence of her good taste Is her choice of a husband, as Jimmie Pollard, as everybody knows him, Is one of the sterling young men of this community. A young man of sterling parts, the youngest son of Mrs. Lena Pollard whose farm he conducts suc cessfully and whose idol he is. Born and reared to manhood in this com munity he has endeared himself to all and has won an enviable reputa tion for his sterling worth. Immediately after the marriage the young people will leave for Elizabeth, N. J., where they will spend their honeymoon visiting relatives of the groom and will be at home to their friends in Nehawka some time next month, Just when we are unable to say a3 this is the only particulars In which our reporter fell down. The News extends congratulations and begs forgiveness.

It seems os if the problem has been solved. A German Inventor named Hartwlg, after studying the matter and experi menting for a number of years, has found a mnterlal for lining bathing suits which keeps the wearers afloat. In fact. It is said that one Is as safe from drowning when In the water In a suit thus lined as If he were on dry land. One groat advantage of the dis covery Is that the lining adds little to the weight of the suit and makes It strong, but not cumbrous. Trsts made abroad with this safety lining suit have attracted great at tention. A number of people unable to swim a stroke have donned thorn and lenped Into water twenty or thirty feet deep, where they have floated as easily as If made of cork. Should the suits prove all that Is claimed for thorn timid folks will now have little trouble in learning to swim, and there seems to be no reason why the safety lining should not be used for clothes to be worn by those traveling by sea. "But how can they tell Just how high he flies?" This question has probably been ask ed ten thousand times this summer at the Hvlatlon meets by those who have watched the daring aviators go up and up until they looued no larger than a Keul Kstate Sold. A sheriff sale In foreclosure of mortgage In case entitled Livingston Loan & Building association against Frances Skoumal, was had at the south door of the court house this morning in which lots 16 and 39 in the southeast quarter of section 13, township 12, In range 13, was in con troversy. The association was rep resented by Walling, Gerlng and Rob ertson. The property was sold to the defendant for $1463, she being the highest bidder therefor. A Grandson Arrives. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Kauble are rejoicing over the arrival of the stork at the home of their daughter, Mrs. Dr. F. D. Caldwell, at Omaha, which left them a bouncing boy baby. Grandpa Kauble wore a broad smile as he sat on his wagon seat this morning. The mother and child are doing nicely, and we hope the little fellow may live long to bless the home of his parents and grandparents. Mr. Cooper ISeslgns. George Cooper, a Burlington oper ator, who came to Plattsmouth to take the second trick at the Burling ton station, taking the place of Mr. Howeter, who was promoted to the vacant place made by the promotion of Mr. Clement, resigned his position yesterday after seven days in the po sition. Mr. Cooper departed for Kan sas City on No. 2 last evening. Take Auto Trip.

Some people object to long tours In their automobiles. They say that, while the ride itself is most enjoyable, the meals they are obliged to purchase along the way are not even fit for a hobo to eat.

In peaco let us 6trive under ono (lag for our common welfare. Just as the idea of PROVIN CIALISM has worked other evils, bo it has worked tho wnsto of our natural resources. Tho PRO VINCIAL idea was that the nat ural wealth, belonging to all tbo American people, ohould bo hand ed over for nothing to special in terests. This was dono under tho plea of encouraging individual en terprise and hastening local devel opment. And so forests which onco bo longed to all tho people have been ruthlessly felled, and upon their ruins have risen the empires of our lumber kings. Priceless de posits of coal, iron ore and copper which once belonged to all the peo ple have been surrendered freely TO SPECIAL INTERESTS. THE NATION MUST KEEP AND ADMINISTER FOR ALL THE PEO PLE THOSE NATURAL RE SOURCES BELONGING TO ALL THE PEOPLE. EVERY 8TATE SHOULD AID AND NOT HINDER THE NATION IN DOING THIS GREAT DUTY. By JAMES J. HILL. O pack the fact into a sin gle statement, the need of the hour and tho end to which this congress should do votc itself U to CONSERVE CONSERVATION. It has come into that peril which no great truth cscrpes the danger that lurks in tho houso of its friends. It ha3 been used to forward that serious error of policy, tho exten sion of tho powers and activities of the national government at the expenso of those of tho states. There are dangers inseparable from national control and conduct ' of affairs. THE MACHINE IS TOO BIG AND TOO DIS TANT. Its operation is slow, cumbrous and costly. So slow U it that settlers are waiting in dis tress for water promised long ago. So faulty has been tho adjustment of time and money that congress has had to authorize the issue of $20,000,000 of national obliga tions to complete projects still hanging in tho air. So expensive is it that estimates have been ex ceeded again and again. THE ATTEMPTED FEDERAL CONTROL OF WATER POWERS IS ILLEGAL, BECAUSE THE USB OF THE WATERS WITHIN A STATE IS THE PROPERTY OF THE STATE AND CANNOT Kft TAKEN FROM IT. Taste Your Food When Eating to Avoid Tasting It Af terwardJ i Br HORACE FLETCHER Food 5p.cl.llit. E eat too much. We steer in the wrong way. The hum! is but a machine a corpomobile, if you please. ' Food which is not enjoyed that is to say, palatabler is undigested. . ' H ! IT IS ABSOLUTELY WRONG TO TAKE FOOD UNTIL YOU AJIS HUNGRY, AND THE HUNGRY MAN WHO CANNOT TAKE TIMl TO? EAT HAD BETTER NOT EAT. IF YOU HAVE BUT TWO MINUTtt TO EAT, EAT CAREFULLY IN THOSE TWO MINUTES. TASTE THE FOOD AT THE TIME OF EATING AND YQTR WILL NOT NEED TO TASTE IT AFTERWARD. ; Further, we do not generally make the most of foods. If yni should all eat bread first until tho appctito was eat isfied with that, then other thing3, we would n.el only one-half what we aro now eating. Tho miad too, must bo in an agreeable state. Professor Cannon of Harvard mado some ymj) interesting experiments with a cat. Tho cat m& given Bubnitrato of bismuth with her food to maid the path of digestion visiblo to tho X ray. Alton the cat was well fed she lay satisfied and purred1,' and the digestive organs seen through an X r3) were in perfect working order, but when the cat was annoyed th&tt which she had eaten became dead food. SO WHEN YOU ARE WORRIED AND GET THAT TIRED FEELING YOU ARE GENERATING CARBONIC ACID OA3 LN THE BODY. . Therefore during the process of digestion conserve! and propitiate the mental stago.
