FARM IMPLEMENTS 1
Rev. L. V. Scott, the last of the
week decided that the pastor should
be sent to the- state conference at
Kearney and accordingly Luther L.
Pickett, one of the leaders in the
church work started the ball rolling
to provide the funds for the trip of
the pastor. Mr. Pickett found the
membership of the church responsive
to the request for funds and the
members of the young men's class of
the church went over the top with
a subscription of more than half of
the expense money. The pastor
was yesterday presented with the
fund raised and feels very grateful
to the young men. the members of
the church and Mr. Pickett for their
recognition of his services. Rev.
Scott left this morning for Kearney
to attend the convention.

About It
Nebraska
THE SCORE WAS ONLY 3 TO 2
Game Being Played in Record-Breaking
Time Lasted but Little
Over an Hour.
The Louisville base ball team
journeyed down to our peaceful lit
tle city yesterday afternoon and re
turned home with the big end of
the Kate receipts by a score of 3 to
2. The game was a fast one with
excellent work on both sides and
aside from a few bobbles by the
locals was high class ball throughout
and. the game while a defeat for the
Sox was enjoyed very much by the
fans regardless of the result. The
Louisville team was a pleasing
bunch of ball players and played a
straight, clean game all the way
through. They will play the Sox at
the park here on next Sunday.
Philby. from out in the northern
part of the state was on the mound
for the local team and threw a good
steady game and aside from a walk
and one unfortunate throw which
resulted in hitting one of the Louis
ville batters he was able to keep
the game in good control. Fritz
Huff, well known to the Plattsmouth
fans, did the dark work for the visi
tors and kept his hits well scattered.
Pete llerold did some excellent
fielding, as did Mason, and the on
handed catch by Pete in the seventh
inning robbed the visitors of a hi'.
Eddie Gradoville played his usual
steady game behind the bat and lip
stick work was a feature of th:
game.
In the opening inning t lie visi
tors gathered in two scores when
Koop hit safe through first base am.
was scored on the single of Gobcl -man
to center field; Tyo with a safe
jab to right, brought in Huff, wh
had been hit on the arm by on
of the slants of Philby.
In the fourth act of the littl
drama, the Sox made two runs that
tied up the game when Mason was
walked; Gradoville was safe when
Ostsenkop in the left field failed to
hold his high fly, and both men came
in when Fred McCauley tapped the
pill for two bags.
In the fifth inning the visitor
added another and which proved the
winning run when Rockwell secure 1
a two sacker to the center field and
later scored on a wild peg to third
base from first.
The Sox several times in the suc
ceeding innings had the bases choked
but were unable to put any of the
runners over the plate for a score
that was so badly needed, and dark
defeat perched on their banner at
the close of the contest.
The game was played in record
breaking time, as a little over an
hour was required to complete the
full nine innings.
FRED EGENBERGER OUT AGAIN
The many friends of Fred G.
Egeuberger have been pleased very
much to see him able to be up and
arouod again after an illness of
some duration and during which
timo he has been confmed to bis
home. Fred is looking well and
states that he is feeling very well
at present and expects to ypend
some time in a complete rest and a
period of recreation to give- him
back his old time strength. There
are few better fellows than Fred
and to see the old scout up and
around is a pleasure indeed to his
legion of friends throughout ('a.s
county. Mr. Egenberger is expect
ing as soori as be can arrange bis
business affairs to enjoy some time
in traveling through the- west and
enjoying a well deserved vacation
and rest.
VISITS WITH OLD FRIENDS.
From Monday's Dally
Philip Lutz, wife and son and
daughter arrived in the city Satur
day from their home in York coun
ty and will remain here for a visit
with the old friends and relatives
in this county. Mr. Lutz is an old
time friend of aMrtin Fricdrich and
I. If. Mcisinger, as these three
gentlemen were boys together in
Illinois many years ago and are en
joyiug to the utmost the visit to
gether and the stories and memories
of the days when they were young
men in the early twenties. Mr.

NEW SWITCHBOARD DUE SOON
Installation of Equipment Here Will
Safeguard Us Against Darkness
for Long Periods.
The event that lias long been
looked forward to by the people of
Plattsniouth has occurred the ar
rival of the new o00 horse power
engine that is to be installed in the
electric light plant in this city to
provide for emergencies that in the
past have caused a shutting down
of the power and light service, to
the city. The engine arrived yester
day and today is being unloaded and
will be placed on the new bases
erected for it in the power house as
soon as the concrete foundation has
"set" sufficiently.
The new engine is a brand new-
product of the t.'hose-Oorliss type
and has not been in operation at all
but is delivered direct from the fac
tory to the Nebraska Light & Power
company for use in the plant in
this city. The engine is fully cap
able of handling the load demand
ed by this city and the service out
in the county and is a guarantee
that in the future in case of a break
down of the plant furnishing th"
power and light over the transmis
sion line the plant here can be brot
into nlay and furnish the electric
juice to the Plattsmouth consumers.
The new switchboard ordered for
the use of the plant was guaranteed
for delivery within three weeks and
as one week of this period has elap
sed the switch board is due to ar
rive within the next two weeks and
will at once be placed in the plant
to furnish service to the city.
These improvements that will af
ford an independent unit for service
in case of a breakdown, will bring
much satisfaction to the users f
light and electric power and to Su
perintendent James Kuykendall ;is
well, as he has been up against it
in time of a breakdown, being whol
lv without means of giving relief lo
the people and at the same time
bearing the brunt of the complaints,
which of necessity was made by th ?
patrons of the company over tlu
city.
With the improvements made and
the plant here placed in condition
where it can be used in case of need
there should be little trouble in
keeping the service on here in case
it is impossible to supply the city
over the transmission line.
