UNERAL OF MISS
ANNA CATHERINE
SCHRODER WEDNESDAY
The funeral of Miss Anna Catherine
Schioeder was held yesterday after
noon from the Glendale church, near
Cedar Creek, and the services were
attended by a large number of the
childhood friends of the deceased
younjc lady, whose death had come so
suddenly. The services were in charpe
of Rev. J. II. Stejrer, pastor of the
German St. Paul's church of this city,
and the pastor spoke to the bereaved
family and friends the message of
comfort that the Savior had brought
to the world and through whom man
kind has their hope of the future life
everlasting. The burial was in the
Glendale cemetery, near the old home
of the departed.
Anna Catherine Schroeder was born
February 20, 11)00, near Pellevue,
Neb., and when a child of tender years
came with her parents, Mr. and Mrs.
J. P. Schroeder, to Cedar Creek, where
the family has since made their heme.
The departed lady was one who was
greatly beloved by all those having
the pleasure of knowing her and her
death cast profound grief over the
community where she had. made her
tome. , Miss Schroeder was ill only
about a week, suffering from a severe
case of appendicitis, and gradually
grew worse until death brought her
relief from her sufferings on Monday
morning, April 30th. To the family
who have lost their loved one the
deepest sympathy of the community
will be extended in this, life's darkest
hour of grief, and they will bear with
them the gentle memory of one who
had spent her yea.? upon the earth in
devotion to the Christian life and to
those she held dear.

many good things to eat, which was
thoroughly enjoyed by the guests. At

was to be found a numbe'"' of pack
ige.; containing beautiful birthday re
membrances, which denoted the hi-h
esteem in which she is held by her
friends and which will assist her in

The Washington avenue paving liti
gation between th residents along
that thoroughfare and Elm street am
the city of Piattsmouth has again ap
pearod in the lirr.e light. An appea
from the action of the city council
fitting as a hand of equalization, has
been filed in the district court by At
tomeys lh O. iKvyer and A. L. Tidd
as representatives of Edward Fitzger
aid and others, the plaintiffs in the
cause of action. The grounds set
fcjlh as leasons why the tax shouk
ra t be levied on the property of the
plaintiffs, is practically the same as
orTered in the first trial of the case
undo' tb.o petition for an injunction
against the city and in which action
the injunction was denied by Judge
iegley. The plaintiffs charge that the
district was not created according to
law, that the letting of the contract
was not legal, that the paving is a
general improvement to the city am
rat a special improvement to the
property along Washington avenue
and E'm street, and also, that the as
sessment of the taxes for the paving
is excessive against the property of
the plaintiffs in the case.
