ter a protracted illness covering a
period of several years and during
the last few months of her sickness;

home for the greater portion of the
time. .Mrs. Palmer was a sufferer
from tuberculosis, which malady hail ,
compelled her clocitig her bright anil .
successful stage career in 1912. and
since which time her health has been i
rr.pidly declining. i
The father. George E. Dovey, and
on of the sisters. Airs. R. F. Patter- '
son. of this city, departed Saturday
for Des Moine; anil reached that city
a few hours prior to the death of
.Mrs. Palmer and in the last moments
of her stay on earth she was able
to recognize ar.l Lid farewell to the
devoted father and the sorrowing
sister.
The deatli of Mrs. Palmer brings
to a close the life of one of the most
winsome ladies who had graced the
American stage and during her ca
reer she hed won high honors thru
the beauty of her voice that had ,
charmed thousands both in her na-;
tive land and abroad. From the years !
1902 until 1312 Ethel Dovey held a
high place in the life of the stage
ami with her younger sister. Miss j
Alice Dovey, was noted as a star in !
the musical comedy successes of that
period.
Ethel Dovey Palmer was the eldest
daughter of George E. and Margaret
Dovey and was born in Plat tsmowt h.
Nebra-ka. January 12. 1S!. wJ:ere
her childhood days were spent and
where? she received her education in
the schools of this city. In her early
childhood days the unusual dramatic
Talent that was to later win her
fame, was noticeable and in order
that she might enjoy to the fullest
extent the promise of her childhood,
she was sent abroad with her sister,
Alice, the two little singers being
known as the Xebriska sisters. They
spent several years in London with
th'.-ir grandmother. Mrs. Charles S.
Dawson, in the study of the voice and
languages, later returning to Amer
ica and entering tne t.nieago -Musical
college from which Ethel
graduated j
in 1901 and on her graduation was
awarded the Joseph Jefferson diam
ond medal for dramatic art.
Following her graduation from
college Miss Ethel, with her sister,
Alice, joined "The Strollers, " one of
the most successful musical remedies
in 1902 and their marked ability at
once won them recognition and their'
opening season was followed by even!
greater successes and in the succeed
ing years they appeared in a number
of the leading musical attractions
in the larger cities. chief among
which was that of "The Land of
Nod." in which they won it great
success and in which they appeared
in this city, the management paying
a graceful tribute to the young stars
by bringing their attraction to the
old home to be presented.
In the year 1909 Ethel Dovey was
married at Oakland, California, to
Fred C. Truesdell. one of the popular
leading men of the stage, and to this
union two daughters were born, Jane
Margaret and Petty Ann, who are
left to mourn the death of the moth
er. Ihe continued ill health com-
pelled the retirement of Mrs. Trues-i
dell from the stage in 1912 and she;
spent some time in traveling in the (
hope of restoring her health, being
also for a time a guest at the home
of her parents in this city.
She was married a second time in
the year 191S to Mr. Villi3 M. Palm
er and since that time has resided at
Pes Moines, where she passed away.
To mourn her going there remain the
husband and two little daughters,
a-:etl nine and six years, the father.
George E. Dovey and the following!
brothers and sisters: Mrs. John Haz
zarri. New York City; Mrs. U. l Pat
iTion, Plattsmouth; Mrs. George H.
Fuller. Falls City, Nebraska; Mrs.
John W. Falter, Charles S. Dovey,
George F. Dovey, Plattsmouth, and
Mrs. Floyd. Harding, of Tiensen,
China.
The body of Mrs. Talmer will ar
rive in this city tomorrow afternoon
at 3:05 and be taken direct to the
St. Luke's Episcopal church
it
which she had been received in
childhood and the funeral services
will be held there at 3:30, conduct
ed by Rev. Father W .S. Leete, rector
of the church. The body will be laid
to rest in Oak Hill cemetery beside
that of the mother who preceded herjee
in death some two year3 ago.
The sorrowing relatives will have
the deep sympathy of the many old
friends in this community in the mis
fortune that has cone to them in the!
loss of the dear one who in the
months of suffering and sickness they
have watched with such tender care,

MAKES IT DISAGREEABLE
T'ae br n l of weather tlitt has nre-
vailed for the past two days in this
portion of the state is such as to
make it disagreeable to the extreme
for those who have to be out in the
elements. Sunday saw the lowering
skies give up a nasty mist that did
not reach the extent of a real rain
storm but served to keep the greater
P-ir of ,h(? population indoors and
the home fireside was the big attrac
tion of the day.
This morning the eccentric wealh
er man made a bold attempt to pro
duce winter weather and flurries of
snow prevailed for a while. Even thi I
although a forerunner of the snows
'of the winter, was rather a relief
from the wet and cold rain,

improvement the last of the week,
I are now wet and soggy and are be-
ing cut up into ruts, which, if they
freeze, will make travel over them
anything but pleasant.

Collin has admitted that he wa

that the haul was too bur for ama
teurs to handle. lie drove the car
that took the stuff awry, and when
he visited his si.-!er at Columbus he
laid a trail that was followed in a
comparatively eay iiktih."" by fed

When he arrived at the Omahu
1'nion lt pot the "lieutenant" wa:;

towered over In?i ector Cobb., who
is himself a very v:!! i.ian.
"The army descriptions of our
prj..;,,ror never would have resulted
in his arrest," said Coble. "They
described him as bthig live fe:i.
ugh i inches tall, while he is over
six feet tall, and his weight is great
ly in excels of that in the army rec
ords." Collins kept his head down and
shaded before the mass of people
eager to see him in the station, and
refused to be photographed.
"There are enough pictures of n;e
floating around the country nowa
days, the way it is." he said.
Fear of a habeas corpus service or
a vague chance of a rescue prompted
the accompanying officers to "shoo"
all eager spectators far away from
Inspector Coble and hi prisoner, cs
they marched from the train to the
taxi.
The incarceration of Collins in the
'ounty jail at Council Bluffs com
pletes the work of the federal detec
tives in cleaning up the great mail
robbery, which is said to have re
sulted in the theft and destruction of
nearly ? 1.000.000 worth cf currency
and bonds.
"Postoftice inspectors generally
-have certain dist.-icts," said Mr.
Coble last night, "but in this in
stance the bars were thrown down
and every offiror invited to take a
hand. That is the reason for the
quick clean-up."
Informations against Collins were
drawn up by Commissioner Uyers in
his ou"ice. in the presence of the pris
oner, last night.

The weather was such that it kept
many from getting out but those who

FAST DRAWING
NEAJM4 DAYS
LAST DAY OF NOVEMBER BRINGS
THOUGHTS OF RESIDENTS
TO HOLIDAY TIME.
From Tuesday's Dally.
The lat day of November brings
forcibly to mind the fact that in the
next twenty-five days Christmas
will be with us again and it brings
the problems of what to get for
"him" or "her" not to mention pa
and ma or the children and friends.
The advantages of early buying has
been pointed out so often that it is
practically useless to urge this on
the residents of the community at
this time as they are awakening to
the fact that it is best to get in
early if you want to secure the best
that the market affords.
Christmas, 1920, will be somewhat
different from that of a year ago in
that the general conditons are more
upset and uncertain both in the
business and industrial world. The
great boom of prosperity and high
wages and high prices is now on the
decline and the result is bound to
be shown in the selection of the
Christmas shoppers and more practi
cal articles will bo in demand by
the shoppers rather than the purely
ornamental or useless gifts that are
sometimes purchased.
The Plattsmouth merchants are
now getting ready their Christmas
displays and will have them ready
for the benefit of the shoppers so
that they may get in early and
have their selection of the best that
the market affords for the season.
When you are ready to make the
Christmas purchases, a visit to the
local stores will prove to you that
what you want can be bought as
cheaply here as any place in the
country and you can have the fullest
opportunity of examining and de
termining on whether you want it
or not. Christmas shopping at home
is always a pleasure as you are as
surred of satisfaction which you
eamirot--- vooura - in, - doing business
elsewhere.
In making your selections remem
ber the clerks and get on the Job as
early as possible as the clerks like
a little time around Christmas to get
ready for the great event of the
Christian year.
ENJOY PLEASANT TLME.
A very enjoyable party was held
at the home of Mr. and Mrs. S. Y.

evening and which was attended
by a large number of the young

dancing at which all enjoyed a fine
time and at a suitable hour a fine
array of the Thanksgiving goodies
was served to which all did the most
ample justice. The yc$ung people
decided to visit the William Baker
home and tender a surprise to Mr.
and Mrs. Harold Hull. Mrs. Hull
being formerly Miss Rose Baker, and
