THE HOME OF SATISFACTION
NEW DEPARTMENT CREA
TED BY THE BURLINGTON
. i
Plan to Foster Industries In All
the Towns In Nebraska Along
Its Line.
There has been croafed by the
C, B. & Q II. R. company a now
department to bo known as tlte
industrial department, which is to
bo operated in connection with
the real estate department, and
R. A. Howard is Die real estate
nnd industrial commissioner of
the entire system, with head
quarters at Chicago, and K. H.
Westem-lt, in addition to his
duties as real estate agent, lines
east of I he Missouri river, will be
assistant industrial commissioner
for the same territory.
The object of Ibis new depart
ment is lo pive the aid of the C.,
11. & Q. to the building up of in
dustries in the different cities and
lowns along its lines of railroad.
It will not discriminate between
towns nor aid or foster any
scheme, but will aid in any and all
legitimate industrial enterprise in
nny city or town on its lines.
Many cities ami towns have
peculiar advantages for some par
ticular line of industry. per
haps advantages of raw material
which if brought lo the attention
of (hose who know bow to handle
it, could be used to build up a
new industry that could do well at
that parlciular point when it
might fail at another, perhaps
on account of it s local inn, somo
city or town may have particular
advantages which if properly
shown may bring to it industries
which will do well.
Tt is not the intention of this
.department to make a brass band
or speech campaign, nor does it
Intend to unfairly interfero with
industries located in cities or
towns on other lines of railroad,
hut in a dignified, business-like
manner, by acting in conjunction
with the business organizations
of our cities and towns, try to
bring together those, where there
are peculiar advantages, with
capital who know how to develop
the same and by so doing help to
develop and enlarge the cities and
towns and thereby increase the
business of the railroad com
pany. It will lake some time to got
this new department organized
and working so as to get the best
results, but it is now ready and
desires to receive suggestions and
information along the lines of up
building of the country adjacent
lo the Burlington railroad.

Died at County Farm.
An aged woman, Lizzie Carlson,
who has been an inmate of tho
county farm for the past two
years, died yesterday. She has
been suffering from paralysis for
the whole time that she has been
a county charge. The deceased
was born in Ohio June 5, 1815,

up her residence at the county
farm was housekeeper for a man
named Moore, who died about two
years ago. The funeral will occur
from the farm this afternoon.
THE ICE CREAM CONE
. ISJOWJN DEMAND
It Would Be Just as Well to Be a
Little Careful the Sort of Cone
You Get a Hold Of.
The weather of the past week
has been warm, and it is going to
be warmer. The indications are
that the warm spell may remain
for some time. Our knowledge of
this probable condition is aroused
into activity by reason of the ar
rival of a quantity of literature
from the health experts of the
agricultural department. The
major portion of the consignment
alludes to the probable indiscrim
inate absorption of the ice cream
cone.
Now we would not for the world
"knock" on I he ice cream busi
ness, or the purchasers thereof,
for we are allied to ice cream in
summer and oysters in winter,
and havo need of both to satisfy
the cravings of an abnormal ap
petite for good things. The health
department's pronunciamonto is
not in the form of a wholesale in
dictment. The authorities simply
contend that many of the ice
cream cones are tinctured with
borio acid, and boric acid is bar
red out of (he culinary doctrines
of Specialist Wiley, who ought to
know what wo should and should
not eat. ' Dr. Wiley simply says,
however, to watch the cones and
put a ban on those that have boric
acid. . .
Will the ice cream man kindly
attach labels to his boric-acid nnd
non-boric-acid cones that we may
know which am which?

L C- ANDERSON PASSED
A Good Citizen, and During His
Thirty Years' Residence Here
Had Made Many Friends.
Mr. I,. C. Anderson, who has
been a sufferer since last March,
departed this life at his home in
this city Sunday morning about 2
o'clock, having been in an uncon
scious state most of the time since
May 30, when he suffered from a
second stroke of apoplexy.
Lewis Christian Anderson was
born in Halmstad, Sweden, Feb
ruary 29, 1814, where he grew to
manhood and took up the trade of
carpenter. He was married in
Sweden the first time, and with
his wife came to America in 187C
and settled in Warren county, Il
linois, where he resided for a year
or more. Ono son was born to
Mr. and Mrs. Anderson, being
John Anderson of Sheridan,
Wyoming. From Illinois Mr.
Anderson removed to Minden, Ne
braska, where he lived for some
time, and after the death of his
wife removed lo Plattsmouth
about thirty years ago. On com
ing to Plattsmouth Mr. Anderson
entered the employ of the Bur
lington Railway company and has
been a valued employe of the
company since that time. He was
married the second time April 20,
1882, to Mrs. Albert ina Peterson
of Plattsmouth. The deceased is
survived by his wife, one son,
John Anderson of Sheridan,
Wyoming, and three step
daughters Misses fierda and
Alpha Peterson of this city, and
Mrs. J. A. F.nburg of Sheridan,
Wyoming. One sister in Sweden
and one sister, Mrs. Anna 0. Nel
son of Western, Nebraska, also
survive the deceased.
Mr. Anderson was a consistent
member of the First Presbyterian
church of this city, a member of
the orders of Odd Fellows and of
the A. 0. U. W. The deceased
had a large number of friends in
this city, who will sympathize
with the bereaved family. He was
a good and true citizen, a worthy
friend and affectionate parent and
husband. The first of Mr. Ander
son's sickness befell him last
March; although a year agof on
the advice of his physician, he
took an extensive trip through the
west for the benefit of his health,
which his friends feared was 1m
pared. Last March he suffered
from a stroke of apoplexy, which
was very severe, and from which
he did not recover for a long time.
Ho went back to his work in the
shops about Hip middle of May
and worked fifteen days, when he
was stricken the second time on
Decoration day, from which at
tack he did not rally, except for
short intervals.
The funeral w ill take place
Tuesday afternoon from the resi
dence near the Columbian school
at 2 o'clock. Rev. Oade will have
charge of the service. The friends
wishing to view the remains can
do so Tuesday morning from 10
to 12 o'clock at the home.
Mr. and Mrs. John Anderson
and Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Fngberg
and son, Hoy, and daughter, Olga,
of Sheridan, Wyoming, arrived
jeslerday morning.
Should Be Stopped.
There is much complaint from
the people who reside along the
paved section of Vine street to
the reckless driving of auto
mobiles. There is just as much
danger in racing on Vine street as
there is in racing on Main or any
other street. There is a state law
against racing on the public
streets of all towns and cities, and
if there is no ordinance there
should be one prohibiting such
racing. Vine is a public thorough
fare and this racing should cease
before someono is injured, and a
suit entered against the city for
allowing such racing within tho
city limits. The chief of poilce
should be instructed to notify all
automobile drives to cease this
reckless speed.

RING FOR YOUNG FOLKS
Mr. Frank Bestor and Miss Fran
ces Hiber United in Wedlock
This Morning.
A very beautiful wedding oc
this morning at 10 o'clcik
Sunday morning at 10 o'clock.
The contracting parties being two
of Plattsmouth's most popular
young people, Mr. Frank Bestor
and Miss Frances Hiber. While
the wedding was intended to be a
very quiet affair, there was a
goodly number of the relatives
and near friends present to wit
ness the ceremony.
The bride was gowned in a
very handsome and becoming
while gown and looked very
beautiful, and was attended by
Miss Henrietta Chaloupka, who
wore a very beautiful dress of
lavendar color and carried a
bouquet of flowers. The groom
was attended by. Mr. Joe Hiber,
brother of the bride, and both
were dressed in black business
suits. The ceremony was that of
the riles of the church and was
delivered by Father Vlcck and
was most appropriate and deliver
ed in such a manner as to im
press upon the young people the
very important step in life they
were assuming. The ceremonv
throughout was very beautiful.
After the ceremony the weddinsr
party repaired to the home of the
bride's parents, where a very ela
borate repast was in waiting.
v The bride is a daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. John Hiber, two of

BAD IDEA TO QUIT SCHOOL
AT THIS STAGE OF GAME
Some Boys Anxious to Quit Their
Books Before Reaching the
High School Grades.
With the close of the year of
our public schools many of our
boys are getting restless to go to
work. Some of them are anxious
to quit books for the shop or store
even before they have reached tho
High school grades.
The jingling of the pocket
jnoney enjoyed by a little older
fellows looks manly and grand to
some of these youngsters. To
get $i a day at some boy's job, to
have spending money to treat the
girls and to go on junkets, with
out asking dad for financial help
that seems ambition enough.
And yet, how many fellows have
utterly spoiled their future by
throwing away the dollars of to
morrow for the pennies of today I
F.very American boy needs, not
necessarily, a classical High
school course, but an amount' of
work, either in a literary or
technical school, equivalent lo a
High school course. The fellow
who lacks it occasionally gets
ahead, owing to some possession
,of exceptional gifts. In nine cases
out of ten he is so crude and
awkward mentally that be re
mains a plodder, a ditch-digger
and ribbon measurer all his life.
Don't do it, boys!
