Last Sad Rites Attended by Large
Concourse of Near and Dear
Friends of the Young Man.
The funeral services of the late
John Speck were held yeslerday
from the home of his mother, Mrs.
Clans Speck, sr.. on Locust street,
ami was attended by a great, crowd
of sorrowing friends, who gather
ed to pay their last tribute to
their worlhy young friend, whose
life had been cut, down while yet
in I he daw ning of his bright
young manhood.
The services were conducted at
Ilie home of Rev. J. II. Steger of
St. Paul's church, who spoke
hrielly of the life of the departed
and gave the grief-stricken rela
tives consoling words of the
meeting in the future, where part
ings and griefs will be unknown.
He spoke in part as follows:
"Death always comes veiled in
mystery and draped in sadness,
hut in the dispensation which has
gathered us together, (here are
elements of peculiar sorrow. A
brief, bright earthly life, radiant
while it lasted with sunshine and
joy for all around, and to human
view full of promise for the
future, lias come to a close. A be
loved son, who brought so much
gladness in the home, has closed
his life, his work is done. Over
and above the natural buoyancy of
youth there was in him the bright
sparkle and clTcrsccnce of a mind
which was singularly quick to its
apprehension. For years lit!
worked for business men of our
city, who, without desiring to flat
ter, unanimously declare that the
deceased was a very arlive and in
dustrious young man."
A quarlet from the church sang
several of the old, wcll-lovod
hymns during the service, which
were so appropriate to the gentle,
kindly life of the departed friend.
The rturlington band and Modern
Woodmen, of winch John was a
member, attended the services in
a body, and acted as an escort for
the casket to the grave in Oak
Hill cemetery, the band playing
the funeral march. The floral
tributes were lavish and expressed
the universal hiph opinion thai
wns held of this most worthy
young man, and his departure will
leave a place hard to till among
the circle of his friends.
At the home the Sons of Her
man were present In pay their
last respects, and many of them
accompanied the collage to the
grave, where a short prayer serv
ice was held by llev. J. II. Steger,
afler which the Modern Woodmen
of America gae their beautiful
ritual service for Hie dead as Hie
casket was lowered to its last
earthly resting place. The pall
hears were selected from members
of the Woodmen and I he Cosmo
politan club, of which organiza
tion the departed brother had been
u very loyal member, ami were as
follows: Clou Scott, Fred Jess,
Frank Smith, Karl (ieise, William
Ileinrich and Alviu Murray.
John Milium Speck was born at
Plaltsmoulh, Neb., October 13,
1HS3, and has resided in this city
during the period of his lifetime.
He attended the public schools of
this city until he entered the em
ploy of the II rm of Kunsniann &
llamge, where he was employed as
a butcher for a number of years,
leaving that place to go lo work
in the Hurlington shops, where
he was employed in I he brass
foundry until he was stricken
lown with appendicitis about live
weeks ago and was taken In lin
manuel hospital in Omaha, where
all that was possible was done for
him, but pneumonia setting in af
ler the operation, it, became im
possible to save his life and he
passed away Friday morning at
an early hour. The young man
leaves, besides his aged mother,
to mourn Ins loss the following
brothers and sisters: Mrs. A.
Roberts, Omaha; Mrs. r.us Pein,
Plattsmouth; Mrs. Amanda Kwing,
Hopkins, Missouri; Claus Speck,
Miss Alma Speck, Plattsmouth;
Walter Speck, Hannibal, Missouri;
Henry Speck, Weeping Water.

New Telephone Line.
The farmers in Hie vicinity of
Mynard nro engaged in putting in
an independent telephone line,
which has been constructed by A.
W. Vallery. The line starts from
the linine of Mr. Vallery and runs
into Mynard. The farmers along
the line have all taken telephones
and in a short time it is expected
to complete the work, when it
will be possible to connect with
Hie Lincoln Telephane and Tele
graph company's' station at My
nard.
The event of the year that has
been looked forward to with much
interest by the base ball fans of
the city occurred yesterday after
noon, when the Boosters opened
the season of 1013 at their park
by going up against the team rep
resenting the Dundee Woolen
Mills company of Omaha,
Despite the disagreeable weath
er, there was a very fair lurnoul
of I he lovers of the game and they
were greatly pleased wilh the
showing made by (he local boys.
Connors and Mason olllcialed on
the slab for the Boosters, while
Mann was on the job back of the
bat. The opposing pitcher was
touched up quite lively in the lirst
inning, when the Boosters brought
home a score, repealing the feat
in the fourth inning. At the close
of the game the score stood 2 to
0 in favor of Platlsmoutli.
The Roosters are starting out
in far better shape than last year,
and all of them are showing much
heller balling ability, and if they
continue in the same, good form
they will make a ball team of
which any town can feel proud.
The team base secured Sauls-
burg for Hie third sack this sea
son and he is going to make some
third baseman, too you can set
this down in your dope book, and
with I he regulars of last season
to furnish I he coaching, the new-
material in the team can be de
pended upon to show un in line
shape.
