. H. Seagrave Comes Prepared to
Carry Out Threats Is Nipped
Before Doing Much Injury.
John Henry Seagrave of Omaha
arrived in Plallsmouth yesterday
afternoon and called on his family
south of the city and proceeded to
make a rough house. John Henry
has been making threats against
his family for some time. Not
ong ago Mrs. Seagrave obtained
a decree of divorce from her hus
band on the ground of cruelty.
For some time ho has terrorized
the members of tho family, and
yesterday he came down, the fam
ily supposed, to carry his threats
Into execution. Sheriff Quinton
was summoned and Seagrave
landed in jail. Today the county
attorney filed a complaint before
Judge Deeson charging Seagrave
with assault.
The accused is also guilty of
another offense, being in con
tempt of the order of the district
court, made in the divorce decree,
which enjoined the defendant
from interfering in any way with
tho possesion of the property or
with the peace and quiet of Mrs.
Seagrave. After the assault case
is dealt with he will be given a
hearing before Judge Travis for
contempt.

Tried for Inebriacy.
From Hnturdny'a Pally.
James Speck, a farmer of near
Murray, was given a hearing be
fore tho insanity board this after
noon on a charge of inebriacy
filed by his son, John Speck. The
neighborhood, as well as the
family, seemed somewhat divided
in sentiment. One of his daugh
ters testified that her father did
not treat tho members of his
family any worse than ho was
treated by them. There was evi
dence before tho board that one
of tho sons knocked his father
down with a chair not long since
and then mistreated him after ho
was down. Tho accused testified
that ho could drink or let it alone
and that he does not drink to ex
cess. Tho accused had Mr. Oer
ing appear for him, and tho
lawyer informed tho board that
there was no evidence on which
ihey could find that Mr. Speck
should be restrained at Lincoln.
The hearing excited much interest
and the equity court room was
filled with people from the
vicinity in which the family re
sides.
Alter due deliberation over the
evidence introduced the board
paroled the accused and he will be
allowed his freedom so long as he
does not repeat the dose.

Plalnview Does Things.
Quito a number of former
citizens of Plattsmoulh are now
residents of the thriving little city
of Plainview, Neb., and it will not
be out of order to let the readers
of the Journal know what a live
town they have out there. The
following special from Plainview,
under date of July 10, 1911, gives
an idea of what tho live wires are
doing for their town in the way of
boosting: "The representative
.business men made a booster trip
to neighboring towns today. Mes
srs. Ebinger, Gaines, Eagler,
Hughes, Sorrenson and Seda com
prised tho committee that had
charge of the afTair, the same
committee being in charge of tho
Fourth of July celebration, which
celebration the booster junket ad
vertised. Twenty-one auto
mobiles, all owned by local resi
dents, were filled to Ihe utmost
rapacity with enthusiastic boost
ers, one hundred, men, including
the Plainview band,-making the
I rip. They covered 105 miles
without accident, and visited nine
towns during the day." It will be
seen that Fred Ebinger, a former
live wire business man of Platls
mouth, heads the procession.
