For the sake of 'Safety First he had sent out the clarion notes from the toot horn of the machine, that all who step in the street might take warn ing, to move along, and we moved we assure you. We think Carl will make as careful a driver as he is an attorney, and that is all that will be required. For a Weak Stomach.

The .government aid road running south out of this city to Nebraska City is scheduled to receive atten tion at an early date along the en tire length of its course, some twenty-eight or nine miles, the contract having been let yesterday, three dif ferent firms being successful bidders for portions of the work. This is the road leading out of Plattsmouth on Chicago avenue, and which formerly continued cast from t lie United Drethren church a quar ter of a mile, south a mile and back west a mile, but has now been re routed by the county board to run three-quarters of a mile west from the United Bethren church and thence south to a point directly east of Union, thereby doing away with the quarter mile jog east and back. The only possible objection to this lies in the fact that there is a heavy growth of trees at the church cor ner, which makes it impossible to see beyond the turn, but if the mo torists will use caution and discre tion in driving when they approach this corner the number of accidents for which it is noted can be reduced to the minimum. This road, when completed, will make the Washington highway much better than it has been in the past, although the roads leading out of Plattsmouth have been kept up un usually well this spring. The fact that it is a federal aid road insures the improvements being up to snuff in every respect and we tnay reason ably expect good roads between here and Nebraska City all summer long. It. is expected that the improvement work will begin not later than the first of June. GOES TO HOSPITAL FOR OPERATION From Thursday's Daily This afternoon on the early Bur lington train Robert Well departed for Omaha, where he enters the University hospital, where he will undergo an operation for relief from troubles which have ber,et him for some time.'

This afternoon in company with his daughter Mrs. Orvil Stiles his son Harvey Well who has just returned from the army and Mr. Well's father-in-law Geo. Bussard of College Springs, who is visiting here ac companied Mr. Weil to the hospital. The operation will be as soon as it can be arranged for after arriving at the hospital. JAMES SHELLY IN JAIL.

Some time since James Smelly was incarcerated in the county jail for burglary of some places here in the city and was released after a short term served, and de parted for Murray, where he found employment at the livery stable cf li. C. Iihoden and when the robbery cf the store of Gansemer's occurred night before last, and the sheriH" was called, he deemed it the best to take him into custody.

BETTER PRACTICE SAFETY riEST ?rom Thursday's Daily. Phillip Ke.il was a visiter in Plattsmouth yesterday afternoon from his home near Murray, and was looking after some business for a few hours, returning to his home in the evening.
