From Wednesday's Dally.
A message was received at Mur
ray yesterday announcing the death
at the home of her son, Ray I. Davis,
at Sterling. Colorado, of Mrs. An
derson Davis, who for a long period
of years was one of the best known
and well beloved residents of that
portion of Cass county. The death
occurred Monday evening.
Mrs. Davis was nearing her eighty
fifth birthday and has not been in
the best of health since the death of
her husband in April, 1919. and since
the breaking of the long and happy
wedded life Mrs. Davis has been mak
ing her home for the greater part of
the time with her son, (). A. Davis
and wife at Murray.
In the middle of July Mrs. Davis
departed for the west to visit her
son. Ray, at Sterling and it was
while at his home that she was taken
with her last sickness. Mr. and Mrs.
O. A. Davis had been visiting in Col
orado also and had stopped at the
home of the brother when the aged
mother was taken sick, remained
with her until the last act of the
drama of life had been ended.
The Davis family was numbered
among the oldest in the vicinity of
Murray, having located on a farm
near old Maple Grove in the year
1S7S. when they came from Mills
county, Iowa, and made their home
in and near Murray ever since that
time.
There are few ladies who have
possessed the love and respect of an
entire community as has "Aunt Su
san." as she was affectionately
known by the residents of the com
munity and her life beautiful and
sincere is a monument that will live
forever witrt those of her loved ones
and friends and be an inspiration to
them in their future years, when
they will be deprived of a mothers
love and counfel.
To mourn the death of Mrs. Davis
there remain I. M. Davis. Dr. T. V.

DOINGS IN THE POLICE COURT.
From Wednesday's Dally.
This morning the final chapter in
the arrest of three of the young men
of the city was enacted when Chief
of Police Manspeaker deposited the
amount of $13 with Police Judge
Archer as the amount due the city
from Dewey Hobson, on the charge
of being under the influence of
liquor.
This case is part of the story of
the arrests made by Officer Alvin
Jones Sunday night when he took
into custody Matt Liner and Louis
Frady, who were also assessed fines
of $10 and costs on the charge of
being intoxicated and paid over the
sum of $13 each. When question
ed the young men stated they had
procured the liquor from Louis Baum
gart, who was then fined $100 and
costs for his part in the matter.
It would seem from the statements
of police officers that the boys had
only secured a small portion of liquor
from Mr. Baumgart after much argu
ment and with disastrous results for
all parties concerned.

able hour dainty refreshments of
ice cream and cake were served by
the hostess and the ladies of the
party, which added much to the en
joyment of those present. -
It has been many years since the
Fornoff famils resided in this city,
and Mr. Fornoff left here as a very
young man, and has during the in
tervening years been with the South
ern Pacific at Ogden, being foreman
of the boiler shop of that railroad at
their large shops in the Utah city.
It was a late hour when the merry

well pleased as the result of a letter
received from the headquarters of
the Campfire movement in the enst.j
and which pays a very flattering!
tribute to the work of the girls of!
this city. The report states that of
all the campfires of the state of Ne-1
braska the Kezehkones rank highest I
in both the amount of money they
have raised from various enterprises. I
as well as in the effective work ren-j
dered in the cause.
This report is very pleasing to the
young people and their guardian and
is a well deserved recognition as the
campfire girls of this organization as
well as the other camplires of the
city have made a record that has
caused Plattsmouth to be known
wherever the campfire movement is
in existence.
DEATH OF LITTLE CHILD
From Wednesday's Dally.
The many relatives and friends in
Cass county of the Henry Loutcn
slager family, who for a number of
years have been residing near Pocas

to learn of the death of Freda, the
twelve-year-old daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Loutenslager, which occurred at

The little girl had been sick for three i
weeks preceding her death and had j
continued to grow worse despite the!
efforts of the most skilled medical
assistance to give her relief.
The Loutenslager family removed
from this county a number of years
ago and have been very well pleased
with their new home, but the moth
er has for several years been a con
firmed invalid and confined to her
bed a great deal of the time and is
now unable to leave her chair to
do any of the housework or assist
herself. In her feeble health the
death of the little daughter hr.s
come as a great shock and to the j
father a deep sorrow.

Watr Transportation From Chicago
to Buffalo is an Important
Item.
I'Vnm Wednesday's ToHy.
In the effort to relieve the congest
ed rail transportation from middle
west farms to eastern ports. The
American farm bureau federation
has secured a cheaper rate by com
bination boat and rail shipment to
eastern ports than by straight rail for
the shipment of grain. A revision
of the new rail rate schedule now
going into effect makes it cheaper by
2 1-2 cents to 3 1-4 cents a bushel
to ship by boat to IJulTalo and from
there on by rail. Word of thi.-s action
Ijy the interstate commerce commis
sion was received on the night of Au
gust 2G.
This new schedule of rail rate in
creases will promote boat shipment
and will relieve thousands of ears
shuttling back and forth between Chi
cago and Buffalo for other service
To middle-dest farmers it should
mean a relief of congested rail trans
portation which has clogged elevators
and in some cases stopped threshing
ri.s for lack of storage capacity, par
ticularly on tenant farms.
Before the increase went into ef
fect the rail rate from Chicago to
IJulTalo was 3.S cents from Buffalo
to New York. 10 cents, in spite of the
fact it is 100 miles shorter haul in
the latter. This was brought out be
fore the interstate commerce com
mission. The roads were evidently
losing money on their service be
tween Chicago and Buffalo and charg
ing exhorbitant prices between Buffa
lo and New York to make up the dif
ference. This made it impossible for
boat transportation to complete for
business. Governor Harding of Iowa
stated that sixty per cent of the con
gestion on eastern shipment is caus
ed between Chicago and Buffalo. His
report showed that right now there
are boats on the great lakes equipped
to cany 122.000.000 bushels of grain
per trip and that a round trip loaded
both ways can be made in elevcy
days.
Following expressions of approval
of the plan on the part of the com
mission, the federation immediately
took the matter tip with Daniel Wil
lard. president of the B. &. O. rail
road, and also pre-irlent of the com
mittee of railroad executives of New
York city. The railroads involved
were asked to adjust these ex-lake
rates voluntarily and their cheer
ful acceptance of the plan exhibits
a spirit of co-operation that is a
source of pleasure to all concerned.
In railway circles it is said that this
is the first case on record of the rail
roads' asking a reduction in rates
for the purpose of stimulating ship
ment by water.
