PROSPEROUS CITY?
Want the Daily Journal.
From Wednesday's Daily.
William Weleiikamp of near
Mynard came in this morning
from his home and enrolled his
name among the many readers of
the Evening Journal. Mr. Weten
kamp will farm the home place
near Mynard this year, as his
mother, Mrs. William Weleii
kamp, sr., has moved into My
nard, leaving the farm in charge
of her son and his wife, formerly
Miss Emily Warner. We .were
greatly pleased to meet Mr. Wet
enkamp and whenever he comes
to I'lattsmouth be will find the
Journal ollice the place to make

The Ladies' Auxiliary of the
Presbyterian church held their

TORNADO SUFFERERS
GET EIGHT DOLLARS
FROM GEM RECEIPTS
From Tuesday's Dallv.
The benefit last night at the
Gem theater, one-half of Ihe re
ceipts of which were to be sent to
Omaha, was very poorly attended,
there being only $10 taken in by
the ladies in charge, and Manager
Shlaes did not feel like, sending up
less than MO, and as the relief
half amounted to only $8, he will
give 10 per cent of the receipts
tonight to the stilVerers in Omaha.
The show tonight includes the
big special attraction of Buffalo
Bill's and Pawnee Bill's. shows in
moving pictures, as well as the
inauguration of President Wilson.
TRAINMEN MUST GARRY
THE CORRECT TIE
There is a much closer shaving
of seconds now in railroad train
operations than twenty odd years
ago. A quarter of a century or
less live niinules were allowed for
the variation of the watches of
trainmen and engineinen ; now the
modern railroader would laugh al
such time operations and charac
terize them as away behind the
limes.
Nowadays when watches vary
thirty seconds they must be cor
rected at oxre. In Ihe old times
any kind of a watch was carried
by trainmen and engineinen, but
now they must be a certain stand
ard and. inspected at regular in
tervals. On the Burlington rail
road the inspection is required
once a month.
A conductor who has been with
the railroad for twenty-live years
remembers well when it was
printed in watches carried by em
ployes of the operation depart
ment. Nothing which helps to
assure greater safety in railroad
operations is more appreciated
(hart correct time carried by the
men who run the trains on the big
transportation lines. At every di
vision point trainmen and engine
men are required to compare their
watches with the standard time
clocks found there, and to make a
record of the comparison
THE I N. B. C. OF
THE METHODIST CHURCH
ELECT NEW OFFICERS
From Tuosday'a Dally,
The Young Men's Bible class of
the Methodist church held their
election of o Ulcers for the ensu
ing year at their club room last
evening. There was a very large
attendance of the membership
present and much enjoyment was
had by the young men in the
good-nalured rivalry for the dif
ferent offices. The new officers
elected were: President, Hugh
Cecil; vice president, Floyd Stone;
secretary, Jesse Perry; treasurer,
Fred Hesse. The class held a
piimary a week ago and the two
highest candidates for each ollice
v.ere selected for the election,
which was a very democrat ic. one
in every way. The class has just
cloyed a very successful year,
both financially and in the amount
of good work done .for the young
men of the city.
G. B. GOULD RECEIVES A
(i. B. Could, who has been the
most efficient chief clerk in the
ollice of Superintendent of Shops
William Baird in this city for
several years, has received a much
t'eserved promotion and goes to
Pavelock, where he will serve as
thief clerk in the ollice of Mr.
Ackerinan. The departure of Mr.
Could from our city will be the
cause of much regret, as he was
well liked by all who knew hii.i
und he greatly regretted going,
hut the new position being in the
nature of a promotion, he felt he
should accept it. Mr. Could will
leave Friday for llavelock, but his
family will remain here for some
I one before leaving for their new
home. The Could family are very
much pleased with Platlsinoulh
and its citizens ami they have
been very popular in social circles
here, ami their removal will leave
a place hard to till in I hi! hearts
of their many friends.
I1'. W. Finney, formerly, assist
ant clerk in the ollice of Master
Tie) hanic J)ielrich at Lincoln, has
been ap4ointed to lake the dace
of Mr. Could here, and we wel
come him to our city and trust he
will find it as pleasant a home as
the Could family has.
