1 10 KNOCKS ON
HIS 01 HUE TOP
Is He Who Goes About Tell False
hoods About the Condition of
Things in General.
The Lincoln News hits Hip mark
right in Hip center in the fol
lowing: The man who knocks hi own!
town simply lieeause sonic phase j
(if its government doesn't appeal
l,o him is not only a traitor to his
'own interest, hut to that of his
fellows. The man who pies about
telling falsehoods ahont condi
tions in his home town is directly
assailing the value of every piece'
of property in it, ami he rightful
ly incurs the wrath of every
citizen thus attacked. A city or
a town is just one big family. It
is hound to have differences of
opinion and jars between its
iriemhers, hut no loyal member
goes about telling untruths about
the others simply because he is
angered over the refusal of the
majority of the assembly to agree
with him on a certain policy. No
town, however, is without its
knockers, and the measure of a
city's prosperity is the number of
detractors at home. Lincoln has
been hampered in this respect
during the past two or three
years, but there was a marked
subsidence of it early this year.
Let us hope tbat the good sense
which brought about this im
provement will be employed to
crush out the effort to revive the
old antagonisms.

In Police Court.
From Saturday's Daily.
The neighbors 'in West Plat t s
moulh had a little round-up in
the police court this morning, a
complaint having been tiled
against Mrs. Ashenbruner. None
of the litigants could "spree-ken
English," so that, the court was
left in Hie dark as to the trouble
until an interpreter was called.!
After proceeding for some lime J
the court discovered that the in
terpreter was biased on one side
of the case, and discharged him
at once without pay. Mr. M. Fan
ger was I hen sent for and the
notty problem unravelled to the
court, resulting in the discharge
of Hie prisoner, and a curtain lec
ture from the court. It developed
that the dillifiienlty was not the
fault of one but both sides of the
controversy and the court, told
them to go home and attend
closely to their own affairs, or
there might be something heard
to "drap" if they should come to
court the second time. No one
was fined, the court saving him
self for the next offense.

Kaspar Expends $1,000 in Ma
chinery and His Customers
Get the Benefit.
Kaspar, the baker, has been
making some rearrangement of
machinery at his establishment
today, and now has his new loaf
rnolder and bread mixer lined up
under the shafting and will be in
the most convenient place lor
operating with electric power. On
next Wednesday Mr. Kaspar will
hae been in charge of the shop
he now owns ust one year, and
if the former proprietor could see
the premises lie would not recog
njee the shop. The oven has been
enlarged, increasing its capacity
one-fourth. Machinery for mix
ing and molding the bread, cost
ing the proprietor almost $1,000,
has been installed. The mixer
will handle three 100-pound sacks
ot Hour at one time, and is oper
ate.! by electricity. The niohler
just installed has a capacity of
of 4,000 loaves an hour, and is
easily adjusted from the 5 to the
I0-eenl loaf. Each loaf is weigh
ed in and has the proportion of
dough which every other loaf in
the shop has, so that the pur
chaser gets just what he pays for
no more, no less.
The writer had the pleasure of
witnessing the niohler at work for
a few minutes this morning and
the machine does its work per
fectly. The loaves are taken from
the niohler and placed in nans, one
dozen in each box or tray. One
person receives the loaves from
the niohler and deposits them in
the pans, while another lays the
Kaspar tag in the pan at the end
of the loaf and transfers the tray
to Hie bred chest, where the loaves
stand to rise. From this dace
the bread goes directly to the oven
for baking, and comes from the
oven baked an even brown.
Mr. Kaspar, before coining to
Plaltsnioulh, worked for and hail
the management of one of the
largest baking establishments in
Omaha, and thoroughly learned
the modern and up-to-date plan
of making bread, and his custom
ers receive the advantage of his
skill and master workmanship.

From Saturday' Pally, i
The musicale given at the
pretty home of Mrs. Ir. T. 1
Livingston on North Sixth street
on yesterday afternoon and for
the benefit of the "Lillis Crum
mer Memorial Scholarship" was
very largely attended and the en
tire little entertainment was such
a one as the la. lies might well lie
proud of and which helped a whole
lot toward the cherished -object
for which it was given. This
musicale was given under Hie
auspices of the Woman's Auxili
ary of St. Luke's church and the
committee of ladies who assisted
Mrs. Livingston in arranging for
this splendid occasion and in
entertaining the large number of
guests, were Mesdames Henry

Thrasher. For the occasion the
charming rooms of the Livingston
home had been very attractively
decorated with apple blossoms
and which spoke of the spring
time. The splendid program of music
which the ladies of this com

thoroughly enjoyed by those lor-

charming manner. Mrs. Noble

LOCAL POSTOFFICE
1ST HUSTLE SOI
Must Take Extra Pains to Get at
Facts Concerning Proficiency
of the Force Employed.
Owing to the rush of news yes
terday many ilenYs were crowded
out, among some of Ihein being
the following in reference to the
investigation inaugurated by the
poslollllllcc department calculated
to r.rrivcd at I he proficiency and
dexterity of the mail handlers. It
has been the practice of the de
partment to weigh the mail dur
ing some month of the year in
order to arrive al the value of the
services of the carriers. Itut, this
is the first attempt to ascertain
the time used in handling the dif
ferent classes of mail.
The poslollice department has
issued an order to Hie local post
master directing him to take
especial pains during I lie, month
of May to get at the facts con
cerning the proficiency of the
olllcc. The order requires every
piece of mail coming and going to
be counted. Each class of mail
must, be separated, newspapers,
magazines ami free country mat
ter separated from newspapers on
which the publishers pay the
postage. Congressional franked
matter, foreign ami registered
mailer must be separated and
counted, then the actual number
of minutes consumed in handling
each class must be reported to Hie
postolllce department. The post
master must also report the
actual number of times each class
of mail is handled. If distribut
er of mail gels a piece of mail in
w rong box and I he holder of a box
calls at the window an additional
handling must be registered.
In addition to the above the
office must, report the average
number of pieces of mail handled
per minute and the average num
ber ot handlings each piece re
ceives. Rural carriers must, do the
same as far as practicable, beside
weighing daily each class of mail
separately of in and out-going
mail on rural routes. The post
master is allowed one additional
clerk during the time of this test,
which covers the, entire month of
May
The order is far-reaching,

were well executed and the audi
ence demonstrated its sympathy
with her very excellent work. She
was also accompanied on the,
piano by Mrs. (Jeorge Falter.
In addition to these vocal selec
tions, the program was very
much increased in interest by the
piano selections given by Miss
Wolfe of Nebraska City, who is a
guest of Mrs. N. C. Abbott. Miss
Wolfe very easily demonstrated
that she was a finished and skill
ful pianist, and the selections
rendered by her showed careful
training and much study and
practice.
Following the program a silver
offering was taken and this
amounted to $17, with which the
ladies were very much pleased.
It will be remembered by many
that Miss I.illis Cruiiimer of Oinn
b.i. and a very energetic and
prominent, missionary of China,
was very much interested in rais
ing funds for the purpose of
educating a little Chinese girl at
one of the very prominent mission
schools in China, of which she
had charge of. Her untimely
death, which occurred about a
v-'iir ago, caused this mailer to
be overlooked until but recently
when at one of the missionary
convent ions held at, Omaha, it, was
then decided that, each auxiliary
soi iely would put every effort
forth toward Hie raising of funds,
this fund to be known as the Lil
Jis Cruiiimer Memorial scholar
ship. After the silver offering had
been taken delicious sherbert and
cake was served by Misses Marie
Donnelly, Madeline Minor, Dor
othy Hi-ilf ami Itarbara ami Janet
Clement.
