The Cartercar friction transmission,

While here the boat took on sev

was a large roomy craft and ca

done a big business at Omaha and
on almost every trip they arc

As another evidence of what
this store is doing for you in keep

look at these Norlolks at $15. You
perhaps have thought you would
like a Norfolk but couldn't afford it.
These suits are within easy reach.
They have all the modern style fea

take them to be $25 or $30. Costs
you nothing to look.

From Saturday's Dallv.
Thursday evening Dr. C. A.
Marshall and wife returned from
California and Pacific coast
points, where they have been for
the past few weeks enjoying a va
cation trip. Mrs. Marshall ac
companied her daughter, Miss
(lladys, to Portland, where she
was married and rfter a short
visit there proceeded down the
coast, visiting old-time friends in
the different towns and spending
some time at San Monica, where
her son-in-law, Everett Eaton, is
located. Here they were joined
a few weeks ago bv Dr. Marshall
and Mrs. Eaton and little daugh
ter and they remained there until
the folks were entirely settled in
their new home. Both Dr. and
Mrs. Marshall were delighted with
the climate and conditions on the
coast and report all the former
Plallsmouth residents there as
doing well and enjoying the
best of health. While at San
Monica they met. William Stadel
man, a former Plattsniouth boy,
who has prospered greatly since
his removal there and who says
that there is no place quite like
the Pacific coast country.
STILL PLUGGING AWAY FOR
BETTER TRAIN SERVICES
From Saturday's Dallv.
"A letter from the Commercial
club at Plattsniouth informs us
that they are still plugging for
that better train service. The rail
way company has tho matter un
der advisement and as is usual
with railway companies are taking
their time to it. The letter to us
was called out by a comment of
the Weeping Water paper on an
item in the News several weeks
ago, and was to assure us that
they had not lain down on the
matter of better train service. We
did nut mean to imply that theyj
had, but it was so construed. Our
implication was that agitation
i looking to relief from tho rail
roads was a very doubtful asset
until the matter bad been ap
proved by every one of the many
officials who usually have to con
cur before the relief is granted.
The Plattsniouth Commercial club
is a live wire, and it does not take
a person with a verv good memory
to recall some of the things they
have done. Just why they should
lay down now on their effort to
make it convenient for people to
get to the county eeat is not ap
parent to us. We hope they get
the service they are after, and be
lieve they will if earnest effort
counts for anything. Nehawka

The T. J. Sokol society will give
another of their always delightful

OMAHA-KANSAS CITY BOOST
ERS FAIL TO GET HERE
From Saturday's Dally.
The party of boosters fur the
Omaha-Kansas City scenic route,
who left Kansas City yesterday for
a run to Omaha got into Hiawatha,
Kansas, last evening and finding
the condition of the roads north
of that city so muddy they decided
to return to their starting place
and wait until more favorable
weather for the trip. The dis
agreeable weather has placed the
roads in bad shape throughout
Ibis section of the stale and it is
really fortunate that the boosters
did not finish their trip as they
would not have b'jon very favor
ably impressed with the appear
ance of the country or the roads
over which they were traveling.
The party expects to try and make
the trip in about a month, when
the condition of the weather will
be more settled and it can be car
ried out successfully. The mem
bers of ttie automobile association
in Omaha had prepared an exten
sive program of entertainment
for the visitors while in that city,
which they will also have to
abandon.

From Thursday's Dally.
A bunch of hired men at E. M.
Pollard's loaded up Tuesday night
and proceeded to have a little
rough house in their bunk house.
A free-for-all fight started and
several of them managed to get
pretty bruised up before it
stopped. One of them used a
knife and might have hurt some
body seriously if ne had not been
so drunk. As it was he cut one
of the boys across the knuckles
until it made a bad looking wound.
Mr. Pollard appeared on the scene
when the riot was at its height
and tied a can to six of them, pay
ing them off and firing them out.
They spent the rest of the night
in the depot, and left the next day
for Omaha. Nehawka News.

IS STILL VERY POORLY
The condition of Mrs. Martin
Freidrich, who has bee quite sick
for the past few weeks, continues
to remain very poorly and her re
covery is not as rapid as her
friends could wish for. At times
her condition seems to improve,
while at others it does not seem
to give as much encouragement.
That she may be soon restored to
her former good health will be the
universal wish of all who know
her.
