s- IX PLATTSMOUTH -J.
FORTY YEARS AGO.
" i"" i",A"A"
The hail storm was very severe in
the county several miles west of here,
through the farms of Joe Gilmour,
Mr. Craig, Mr. Ilolmus, and so on
through the Mt. Tleasant district, and
down into Otoe it did great damage.
Farmele & Johnson brought in a
carload of fine horses on Tuesday, and
propose taking them through on foot
to Ashland; the B. & 11. not giving
them rates cheap enough to warrant
their carrying the horses farther.
Some of the horses were fine carriage
animals.
Married On the 27th insU at the
residence of the bride's father, in
Plattsmouth, by Rev. Chas. McKelvey,
insisted by Rev. A. Wright, Mr. F. E.
White and Miss Lottie Vallery, all of
Plattsmouth. This event has been
casting its shadow before for some
taime in .our little burg, and not
often are two people united in the
holy bonds of wedlock who carry with
them more of the good wishes of the
pc-ople of than do this couple.
'Frank." as he is generally known,
is one of our most enterprising and
irdustrious young bgusiness men; and
Miss Lottie is the daughter of one of
Piattsmouth's oldest settlers and
staunchest citizens. The relatives of
the bride and groom and a few in
timate friends comprised the guests.
The cermony took place about 11
o'clock. The bride's dress was drab
gros grain made with trained skirt
and basque, the trimmings of tulle,
arranged in sash ends and loopings at
the back. After the ceremony and
attendant congratulations, during!
which the bride and groom comported
themselves with becoming dignity, a
dinner was served of the most bounti
ful kind. Among the., wedding pres
ents were a handsome castor, a but
ter cooler, two very handsome nap
kin rings, inscribed with "Frank" and
"Lottie, and the groom's present to
the bride, a very handsome watch and
chain. They left on the afternoon
train for a short bridal trip, the good
wishes of their many friends follow
ing them.
Dr. Dio Lewis, the great temper-i-nce
reformer, has been visiting rela
tives in Piatt smouth the past week,
aiid at the earnest solicitation of the
members of the Woman's Temperance
association he consented to aid them
in their work by addressing the peo
ple of Plattsmouth on the subject of
"Temperance," on Sunday evening.
Although suffering quite severely
from hay fever, on account of which
he had refused hitherto to speak, he
waived his objection in favor of
Plattsmouth. Sunday evening being
stormy prevented so large an as
semblage as would otherwise have
done, but still there was a very fair
turnout the Methodist church being
comfortably filled. For lack of space
we shall attempt no review of the
lecture. We were very much pleased
wiih it, however, and partciularly
with the moderation evinced through
out. Dr. Lewis, who it will be re
membered was the leader of the re
cent crusade, stated that the crusade
was a failure wherever it was not
carried on in Christian love; that
when conducted aggressively and per
sistently for many hours each day it
was contrary to the original intention
and worked far more harm than good.
He also sketched a plan of quiet and
effective work by means of com
mittees of two composed either of
men or women, which possessed many
points of merit. Throughout all he
continually enforced the mandate,
whatever you do, do it in a spirit of
love, do not allow anger or impatience
to possess you, for then all your
power is gone." In the name of the
people of Plattsmonth, we thank Dr.
Lewis for the "friendly talk" which
so entertained and instructed us all,
and hope that on his return from
California in the spring he will not
pass us by.
Judge Newell comes out and helps
us again. May the fates be kind to
the judge.
next year is finally arranged, ap
parently satisfartorily. At one time
the board decided to take the scholars
from the High school building and re
turn thera to the. wards. This came so
near abolishing the graded system
that the mayor thought it not safe
to try. As it now stands there will be
six months school in the High school
building, with Miss Johnson in charge
of the grammar class, and the other
grades to be left as they were essen
tially with most of the old teachers.
Here ia the law bearing on these
points: It establishes the school
board as a corporate body and vests
all the authority in them "In ail
cities wherein graded and High
schools have been or may hereafter
be established."
We established a graded and High
school here under this law, that is
certain. By this law our school sys
tem can only be revoked under certain
conditions, as follows:
"That any city of the second class
may suspend the operation of this
law, by a majority vote of said city in
favor of suspension, and the city
authorities are empowered to submit
such question of suspension at a.iy
municipal election of said town, when
a petition signed by a majority of the
citizens of said town shall be pre
sented asking the same."
