IS FINED FOR A DEED
DONE SEVERAL MONTHS
AGO AT WABASH
From Saturday's Dail.
This morning Fred Lawlou, a
oung man residing near Wa
bash, was arraigned in the
county court on a complaint
charging him with doing mis
chief to the school house near
that village. Several months ago
Law ton, with a companion, visit
ed the school house on a Sunday,
and securing entrance to the
building, climbed up through the
scuttle hole in the ceiling and
fixed up a trap, with the door of
the scuttle hole as the chief feat
ure, and arranged it so that
when the door of the school
house was opened the trap door
would fall on the party entering.
The plot worked very successful
ly, and when the teacher entered
lo start school on Monday morn
ing the door of the scuttle hole
fell and injured her quite severe
ly and for several days she was
unable to teach. The county at
torney was notified of the affair,
but before the authorities could
reach there Law ton and his'com
panion had made their getaway.
It seems young Lawlon made his
way to Wyoming, where he has
been since May, and a few days
ago returned home, and the war
rant was served on him, and to
day he faced the music in court,
receiving as a punishment for his
misdeeds a line of $10 and costs,
amounting to 30, which was
paid, and the young man allowed
to return home to meditate over
his shortcomings.

OPENING OF THE
SCHOOLS AT UNION
(Eroin the Union Ledger.)
It is a matter of regret that Hi
new school building could not b
ready for the -opening day o
school, but the five teachers hav
taken up the work with delerinin
ation to make the best of the sit
nation, and notwithstanding the
fact that they are handicapped by
lack of room they have the work
coinir along in a very satisfactory
manner. Until the new building
can be used the Woodman hall is
the 'Ventral" otUee where gradt
3 to I i are being handled, grades
i ami 2 being quartered in a room
of the Stine building. The corps
of teachers appears to be very
strong in every department of the
work, and when given the neces
sary room and equipment they
will no doubt show excellent re
sults. The total enrollment the
lirst day was 10 i, but the, attend
ance will soon reach a higher fig
ure as many pupils were not
ready to begin school work this
week.
In the Woodman hall Miss Eva
Allison is principal and has
chartre of grades 10 and 11: Mrs.
Nettie Stanton has grades 8 and
I); Miss Cora Mueller has grades
5, 0 and 7, and Miss Edna Hanks
has grades 3 and i.
Miss Alice Crozier has grades 1
and 2 in 1 tie Stine building.
Work on Hie new building i
being pushed along as rapidly as
poss ible, but it will probably be
the first of November before the
whole building is ready for occu
pancy. (Seorge Ilhodes ami his
force of men are smearing on I he
plastering at a rapid rate, Joe
Hauer is rushing the interior car
penter work, and John Hauer of
IMattsinouth, has his men at work
installing the healing, plant. The
present plan is lo complete Hie
upper rooms as soon as possible
in order that part or all of the pu
pils can be accommodated there
until the other rooms are finished.
It is thought, Hie upper' rooms
may be ready for use in about two
weeks.

Diarrhoea Quickly Cured.
"I was taken with diarrhoea and
Mr. Vorks, the merchant here,
persuaded me to try a bollle of
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy. After taking
one dose of it I was cured. It al
so cured others that I gave it to,"
writes M. E. Oebhart, Oriole, Ia.

ordinary attack of diarrhoea can
almost invariably be cured by one

WEYRICH & HADRABA
DRUGGISTS
THE PLATTSMOUTH
AUTO CLUB MEETS
Matter of Speeding Autos Taken
Up and Also the Recent
Arrests in This City.
The I'lallsmonth Auto club held
a very well at I ended meeting at
the Commercial club rooms Sat
urday afternoon and much in
terest was taken in I he meeting,
due to the rece.ii I arrests made
for violating the speed laws. The
members of the club believed thai
the matter had been handled in
a very unsatisfactory manner by
I he authorities, as several of I he
most careful drivers in the city
and county had been arrested, and
that on one of the streets out of
the business section of the city.
The club displayed much in
terest i:i the proposed city ordin
ance lo cover Hie speed regula
tion and believed I hat an ordin
ance more fair, both to the auto
mobile owners and the general
public, should be drawn up, as
the present stale laws covering
the subject are such as to make
it almost impossible to keep a
machine in the bounds of the law
aiul still keep moving. In a city
like IMaltsiniiuth, where there is
no congested Irallie there is no
need of trying lo hold automobiles
down to such a speed as six
miles an hour, as everyone who
has taken note of the matter can
clearly appreciate,' and the new
ordinance should put (he. limit at
a more reasonable rale, such as
ten or twelve miles, in the busi
ness section of the city, and from
fifteen lo eighteen in the outlying
districts.
In Omaha, on I he si reels that
have a great deal more Iralllc than
tn Main street here, the limit is
eighteen miles an hour, ami il is
found to work very satisfactory
and there is very liltle danger lo
the pedestrians or drivers of
other vehicles.
The automobiles are a pari of
our modern life and the sooner
laws thai recognize this fact and
provide for regulation that will be
fair lo all are provided the better
it will be for the small towns.
The attempt to hold a machine
down lo six or eight miles an hour
is out of the question, as it is
hard for an ordinary engine lo
operate at this rale of speed, and
causes much unnecessary wear on
the automobile engines, when a
higher rale of speed would not
endanger anyone, and at the same
time show that the safety of I ho
traveling public, would be pro
tected. Let the cily council make a
close study of Hie mailer before
they enact the new ordinance,
and provide one that will gie the
automobile drivers a square deal
ami not cause them lo go to other
places to attend to their trading.
A matter of great importance that
far outweighs the one of speed, is
that of making all vehicles
observe the rules of the road, and
if this is done the chances of ac
cidents will be greatly lessened,
as it is to this cause that mosX
collisions have occurred.
