GENUINE tobacco makes 50 good cigarettes for 10c CRITICISM THAT IS FAR FROM DESERVED Some Residents of City Take Occasion to Apply Hammer to Fire Depart ment When Not Deserved. It has often occurred to many of the residents of the city, who are fa miliar with the conditions under which the fire department has oper ated, that the valiant little group -who yield the hammer with vim and vigor on every occasion that the de- department is called out, should lay up this weapon and retire to soli tude where they can, in their own minds, debate the question whether or not the criticism that they have made is justified. The volunteer fire department is an organization of citizens who have assumed an obligation to do all pos sible, not only of their own proper ty, but that of everyone in the city and there has not been an occasion in vears that the members of the department have failed to do their full duty and at personal sacrifices. There are occasions, it is true. after a fire when everyone can rea lize that there were some small mat ters that might have been handled different but in a large majority of cases the department has done its full duty to save all possible loss from fire or water. At the fire on Wednesday morning a great many complained that the whistle at the shops was not blown more promptly and finding fault with the methods of giving the alarm al though it was the most successful yet used, and others stated that the de partment was not at the fire until after the whistle was blown when in fact the truck was at the scene and in action before the shop whistle was blown, due to the practical sys tem of calling the firemen. FOR HIS HOME TOWN J. A. Gardner of the Eagle Bea con. is a man of himself, and un like the others, when he sees his way clear, he goes after a proposi tion, whether the others do or not. He has just been instrumental in having a band organized for his home town of Eagle, of which he is president, and is encouraging the young folks in a musical education as well as providing a source of en tertainment for the city when oc casion requires. He has also at his own expense, provided a station of the state circulating library, secur ing a large number of volumes from the state library at Lincoln, which are shipped to and from Eagle by freight, he paying the charges there on. Anvone can have a volume for two weeks without any charge, and after that time will be charged at the rate of a penny per day for their non-return. Mr. Gardner is surely doing the proper thing in this re spect by the community, wherein he has chosen to make his home. EAGLES HAVE FINE TIME From Friday's Dally. A large number of the members cf Plattsmouth aerie No. 3C5 F. O E. were visitors in Nebraska City last evening, where they attended the big class initiation of the order and en joyed the pleasant social features of the occasion. W. M. Barclay of this city worthq state-vice-president head ed the party and the Plattsmouth bunch were heartily received by their fraternal associates. Judge Duncan of St. Joseph. Mo., past grand worthy president was at Nebraska City and delivered a very inspiring address on the work of the order in the na tion. A large class was initiated in to the mysteries of Eagledom at the meeting. She States It Mildly. While suffering with a severe at tack of the grip and threatened with pneumonia. Mrs. Annie H.

Sheeh:, n, ground keeper. Charles Gerlach was selected as marshal and will be depu tized by the shrieff for the reejuirc 1 authority to preserve order at all games. In the matter of finances it was not long before there had been sub scribed and paid in the sum of f 17.", which with last years balance of ap proximately $30 will give the boys a gooel start, and with the kind of a team it is expected to maintain, thei gate receipts should prove adequate to keep the thing going. Every town has need of a good ball team and we are pleased to see ; Manley get so well fitted out in this! line so early in the season, as it will insure recreation for our people dur ing the coming summer months.
