GREAT IMPROVEMENTS AT SIXTH AND PEARL The Patterson Building Bought by Modern Woodmen and the City of Plattamouth. In the report of the council proceedings, published in Tues day's issue of the Evening Jour nal, an error occurs. The state ment published was that the city contemplated purchasing the east half of the Patterson block on the corner of Sixth and Pearl streets for a city hall and other purposes, and the M. W. A. the west half, It should have been vice versa. The Woodmen have bought the corner frame and the city the brick livery barn, which will be renovated for city purposes, while The corner frame will be greatly improved by raising it up and converting the entire upper part into a lodge room. The improve ment of both these buildings will be a great help to the appearance of the corner. The improve ments contemplated by both the city and Woodmen simply demon strales that people have more confidence in the future of Platts- mouth than at any time for years Let the good work go on.

COLLISION BARELY AVERT ED OH THE BURLINGTON Passenger Going West, Freight Coming East, Come Within Few Feet of Colliding. The passengers on No. 23 yes- lerdav had a narrow escape from a severe shaking up, and came so near a smash-up as to make the hair stand on the head of one passenger, who poked his head out of the window to see why the air was turned on so suddenly. It appears that No. 23 had orders to pass the east bound freight at Bellevue, but this order was arterwara annunea, ana ine train was going at its usual pace toward Omaha on the curve be tween Gibson and Bellevue when a heavily laden east bound freight, the crew of which had become balled up on its orders, came thundering to meet No. 23 on the same track. As soon as the engineers spied the other's train the air was thrown on and the best efforts of the crews of the two trains were exerted in stopping the trains. The engines were within a few feet of each other when they came to a halt. No one was injured, but some were as white as they will ever be ILL ENFORCE THE PORE FOOD LAWS Deputy Food Commissioner W.

ANOTHER ENJOTARLE RIVER PARTY YESTEROAT Nine Couple Enjoy Trip on th River and Winds Up With Supper. A very pleasant steak party was given last evening on the bank of the Old Muddy near the Burling ton bridge. The function was I given by Miss Clec Applegate, Miss Hazel Dovey and Miss Bell, who were assisted in the broiling by Mr. Bruce Livingston of Oma ha and other gentlemen.

On the return to shore the steak, which had been fur nished by the gentlemen of the party, was by them soon broiled, and with the other little delicacies furnished by the ladies, the party soon found themselves in camp altitude, surrounding a piping hot picnic supper. A few vocal selections were rendered and some classical readings, inter spersed with foot-racing and high vaulting, served to break the monotony of the camp life. After the repast was cared for and there was nothing in sight with which further the appease Mr. Bruce Livingston's appetite, from Oma ha, the joyful company broke camp, and began their cheerful march toward the city. At the juncture of Toad Hollow with the Missouri river the company paused for some time to listen to the frogs sing, and on the con clusion of the concert the party- marched in double-quick time to the viaduct, arriving just in time to join with the senior, class parade.
