' The Missouri I'acilic Itailroad
j company this morning' began the
I work of painting I heir passenger
I station in this city, as well as the
hviiitrlii liniise ami I In residence
of the section foreman. This work
is part of the general plan of im-
h vw.hu.iiU nnilet'l aken hv this
i road, which was outlined in the
Journal some time since, and will
place their properly all along the
Nebraska lines in good condition
and will prove a great comfort to
the traveling public
. . .
The depot here is to be painted
I all over, the interior varnished
and tin; entire structure overhaul
, rwl !iml cleaned and made one or
the neatest passenger stations in
this narto f the state. In addition
to the painting of the station the
comnanv will install electric
litrhts to renlaeo the old out-or
(late nil lamps which, will make a
big hit with those traveling over
i this road, as the light furnished
in the depot has been miserable
in the past and Agent Norton is to
be congratulated on having se-
fiir-od ttiis imnrovement in the
comfort of the depot.
The railroad company has been
debating Ihe iiueslion of moving
i the depot, further east, but then
li:w been some doubt as to
whether or not they could do this
without having to take up part of
Hies treel, hut whether I hey are
able to do this or not, Ihe new
improvements made at the present
lime will he greatly appreciated,
not only by tin; patrons of the
road, but the cilizentf in general,
as it will add very much to the ap
pearance of I hat portion of the
city, and when the contemplated
changes in the Murlinglon station
are made Plat I smoul h can boast
of two very handsome and modern
depots, which will make gateways
I to Ihe city of which we need n t
I be ashamed.

It took seven years for George
liroadhurst to construct "Bought
and Paid For," after the main un
derlying idea of the play, which
has run a year at William A.
Hrady's Playhouse, had taken root
in his mind.
"Hought and Paid For" will be
the attraction at the Parmele
theater next Saturday night. A
very vital part of the play is
founded on fact. A woman, the
most brilliant and accomplished
woman the author ever knew, re
lated to him the incident which he
afterward turned into the kernel
of "Hought and Paid For."
The story was introduced in il
lustration of her theory that un
happy marriages most often r
suited from the fact that in court
ship both parties in interest r
veal only one side of I heir natures,
concealing the other phases unti
ttiev come to the surface in tin
day-to-day intimacy which fid
lows the wedding.
A young girl, who was just out
of a convent, met a tine, dashing
fellow in her native city, who was
a periodical drunkard. When in
toxicated he was a beast. His
parents concealed the fact in the
blind hope that through his love
for this girl he might be induced
to reform. She married him, and
in three weeks' lime he came
ionic drunk. The bride ne.xer had
seen anyone in thai condition, and

Thev admitted thai they had
been wrong in a measure, and mi
plored her not to precipitate
caudal. Thev occupied a great
Mansion and begged thai she conn
lo live with them. She would have
apartments adjoining Ibeir own,
and her husband should be quar
tered in another and distinct part
of Ihe house. She should be pro
tected absolutely from contact
with him, should not even see him.
e voung wife yielded to the ap
peal and matters went along upon
this basis for some months.
One night the husband's par
ents went to Ihe opera. The wife
was ill and remained secluded en
her rooms. The husband came
home, brutishly inebriated, and
finding himself locked out of his
wife's apartment, kicked in Ihe
door bv way of asserting his
nuptial rights. Next morning she
lied from Ihe house. The father
and mother sought her out again.
"It is hopeless," said the old
gentleman, "(let. your divorce. I
w ill help you."
The distracted girl asked Ihe
reason for this abrupt change of
front. "We believed there was
still a chance for his reforma
tion." explained Ihe father. "We
know now I hat if is impossible.
Yesterday he received a check for

check cashed and spent, Ihe money

and that she would hold it until I

From Wednesday's Dally.
Last Saturday evening Ihe
lospitable home of Mr. and Mrs.
J. I). Shrader, northeast of Union,
was the scene of a most enjoyable
gathering, about, sixty of their
friends coming in to spend a most
iovful occasion, and the Shrader
home is certainly the place to
nve it. The Shrader-Lewis or
chestra furnished some very
pleasing musical selections dur
ing the course of the evening, as
welLas a iiuartet composed of
Misses Mabel Shrader, Mae Lewis,
Wayne and Lloyd Lewis, which
sang several numbers that were
highly appreciated by the merry
crowd.
As a titling climax to the en
joyment of Ihe evening a most de
licious four-course luncheon was
served lo the iruests. which, if it
were possible, added to the already
delightful evening. Mr. and Mrs.
Shrader are royal entertainers
and Ihe guests were very sorry to
see I lie hour lor mem 10 leave ron

wishing to again be guests at Ihe

CLOSE CALL FROM ASPH1X
ATION OF THE ENTIRE FAMILY
From Wednesday's Dally.
The family of J. C. Britlain had
a very close call last evening from
asphyxalion from the gas escap
ing from a base burner in their
home. The family had retired lo
bed and when Mr. Hriltain return
ed home from the fire meeting
he was greatly alarmed at the-
amount of gas in the room and at
once aroused the family, who were
in a very stupifled condition, and
opened the doors and windows,
letting the gas escape. Mrs. llrit
tain is still feeling quite sick
from the effects of the gas and
had Mr. Hi-it lain been an hour
later in returning there is no
loubl that some of Ihe family
would have expenenceu ven
serious results from the gas. fit
regulating the.stove for the night
some of the drafts had been left
opi-n, causing the gas to escape
into Ihe room, with the results as
noted above.
