MELONS IN THE STREET
William Davis, a farmer living
southeast of the city, was in the
south part of town today selling a
of watermelons, and when near
Garfield park attempted to turn
his team around, when one of the
wheels struck a rut, overturning
the wagon and throwing Mr.
Davis, a small boy who was rid
ing with him, and the melons out
into the middle of the street.
About this time the team became
frightened and ran down Granite
street to Lincoln avenue, which
they followed until Main street
was reached, when they turned
west, but were stopped in front
of the Donat saloon. The wagon
was badly shot to pieces, but it
was fortunate no one was injured.
v Changing of the Body.
Our body is made of minute
cells which are subject to con
stant changes. Old, broken-down
cells die and new Cells are born
so that in every few years the
body has changed entirely. As
soon as Ibis exchange stops and
not enough new cells are born,
disease appears and we must try
to strengthen the body and to
clean it out thoroughly. The
best remedy we can recommend in
such cases is Triner's American
Elixir of Bitter Wine. It will
clean1 out the intestines and at
the same time strengthen them.
This will improve the digestion
and will prevent fermentation, in
the bowels, of the remnants of
food. It will purify the blood in
a natural and pleasant way, it will
create a sound appetite, it will
bring a speedy relief in diseases
of the stomach and the bowel. At

BURLINGTON SHOPS VERY
BUSY IN ALL DEPARTMENTS
Full Force Employed and Many
Extra Hours Put In to Get the
Work Out on Time.
The Burlington shops in this
city have been having the biggest
run of work in recent years and
some of the departments have
been compelled to work on Sun
day to get out the work that has
been on hand. The government
recently nolilled all railroads that
they must furnish their cars, both
passenger and freight, with the
latest safely devices, and the Bur
lington at once started the work
of equipping the coaches and cars
with them. Among the devices is
one calculated to eliminate the
pulling out of draw bars on
freight and box cars, which often
proves very costly to the rail
roads. As most of the freight car re
pairing is done in this city, that
department has received the
largest share of the extra work,
although all departments have
been quite busy. This speaks well
for the IMaltsmouth shops.
Superintendent Baird always
strives to have the work turned
out here to be the best on the sys
tem, and they generally succeed
in producing it.
The big wheal and corn crops
throughout the west has caused
the railroads to put every avail
able car in shape for use in mov
ing I be crop, and the prospects
are that for several months the
work on the roads will boom.

TERS FOR CITY
I
Work of Remodeling the Building
Has Been Commenced and
Will Be Rushed.
The workmen have commenced
work on remodeling the new city
hall building. The contractor, L.
(i. Larson, is pushing the work
right along and before many
weeks,: the city government of
Plattsmouth will occupy a home
of their own. A large porch is
being erected along the east and
south sides of the building, which
will add greatly to the usefulness
of the structure. The front
room upstairs is' quite large and
will be used as a meeting place
for the city council, while the
smaller room in the rear will
make a splendid court room,
where Judge Archer will preside.
A large folding door connects the
two rooms and will make a com
fortable, up-to-date council
chamber.
The entrance to the second
story will he moved to the center
of the building, so that entrance
can be made to either the council
cnamner or me ponce jiuige s
court. Where the present door is
a laige window will be placed, and
another window will also be made
in the council chamber, making it
a splendidly lighted room.
On the ground tloor the lire ap
paratus and tools of the city will
be placed, and anyone having
need of them will be able to se
cure them without running all
over town to hunt, them up.
The city has long needed a
building of their own and they
have certainly secured one in a
splendid location, situated as it
is, on one of the principal
streets and opposite the line new
government building. Platts
mouth will have no need to be
ashamed of her city hall when it
is completed and it will compare
favorably with most any of the
buildings in town of the same
size in, (he state.
Contractor Larson is a splendid
worknjan and in securing him
for the work the city is assurred
of a job of work that willome
up to the specifications and
plans of the building committee.

high fever the fore pari of the
week, and last night a severe spell
o' coughing came upon him, dur

SOI QUEER SPECIMENS
OF PETRIFICATION FROM
NEAR WEEPING ITER
County Surveyor Fred Patter
son, who was out in the vicinity
of Weeping Water last week, re
turned home Saturday and
brought home willi him some
specimens of what appears to be
petrified wood. One of these was
presented lo him by P. A. John
son, who bad secured it from the
center of a large limestone slab
and seems lo'have been the roots
of some young tree or plant, the
veins hei'iiu plainly visa ble in the
rock, and must have fain in this
rock for hundreds of years. II is
certainly a very fine specimen of
petrified wood and may have been
part of a tree felled by some pre
historic citizen of Weeping Wa
ter. Another of the queer rocks
is one picked up by Mr. Patterson
near the Weeping Water creek
and resembling in appearance Ihe
snail shell, but which Mr. Patter
son thinks is also the root of
some tree or plant, lie is quite
proud of these unique souvenirs
and kindly brought Ihem to the
Journal office for inspection.

IHE GREAT
PLAY "PAID IN FULL"
F.ugene Walter's four-act play
of modern American life, "Paid in.
Full," which has been such a suc
cess for over live months in Chi
cago and two seasons in New
York, will be given for Ihe first
time in this city on Monday night,
September !. The story of "Paid
in Full" is said to be virile, ap
pealing and distinctly original,
and to be unfolded by a set of
characters that are types o,f real
life, familiar to everyone, and
full of human interest. The
scenes of the play are laid in.
New York and the plot tells of the
struggles of a young married
couple who live and keep up ap
pearances on a small income. The
husband, who is a weak character,
rather than submit to the morti
fication of poverty, steals from
his employer, and, when his theft
is discovered, for his own protec
tion, is willing to sacrifice his
wife. Her innate goodness saves
him and saves herself. A pro
duction in keeping with the
artistic requirement of the play is
promised.

WILL INCREASE SAURIES
OF RURAL ROUTE CARRIERS
When the Parcels Post Goes Into
Effect More Work Placed on
Rural Route Carriers.
Under the authority 'conferred
by Ihe poslolllce appropriation
bill, Postmaster Oeneral Hitch
cock has increased the salaries of
rural route carriers on standard
routes from $ 1 ,0oo to $1,100 a
year, this cfi'ecling 30,000 men,
with ir proportionate increase to
carriers of shorter routes. The
order will become effective Sep
tember .'to. This will mean an
increased disbursement of $4,.
000,000 a year.
At the close of the last fiscal
year I here were VI, 031 rural mail
carriers, Ihe aggregate pay being
io,fi55,7iO.
The increase provides rural
carriers adequate compensation
for additional burdens to be im
posed by Ihe parcels post system,
ell'ecl ive January 1 . ,
Mr. Hitchcock has directed also
that rural' mail carriers, on the
completion of twelve months'
service, be granted fifteen days
leave with pay. This will require
an additional ijsHO.ooo a year to
pay sub-carriers.
This will be good news to
rural route carriers, ami is the
proper caper. The rural carriers
earn every dollar they receive, and
in llm worst winter months de
serve double pay.
