and Mayola Propst. and asking dam
ages in the sum of $2i,000.
The petition of the plaintiff as

t wenty-one.
Subsequent to the marriage the

daughter and that thereafter the de
fendants conducted actions that led
to the refusal of the husband to
make his home with the plaintiff and
the breaking up of the family ties.
It is further alleged in the peti
tion that owing to the attitude as
sumed by the defendants the husband
was compelled to visit the wife and
babe clandestinely due to the fear of
arousing the wrath of the defen
dants. The plaintiff also alleges in her
petition that the defendants had
threatened to disinherit the said
Dwight A. Propst if he associate!
with the plaintiff.
It is claimed that the defendants
poisoned the mind of the husband
against the plaintiff by alleged un-j
chaste conduct on the part of plain
tiff and as the result of these state
ments the husband abandoned the
plaintiff and child, making necessary
their support on the charity of the
relatives of the plaintiff. I
Following the desertion of the
plaintiff it is claimed in the petition
that plaintiff attempted to communi
cate with Dwight Propst by tele
phone, but was prevented by the
defendants and that the husband was
later induced to join the naval ser
vice of the United States to prevent
association with the plaiatiff.
As the result of the treatment re
ceived and the actions alleged again
st the defendants, the plaintiff asks
a judgment in the sum of 525.000
and the costs of the action.
Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Propst have
just recently returned from Florida,
where they spent the winter at Palm
Reach. and where the defendant.

company had one of their Fordson

with team3.
The tractor was used on some of
the streets in the north portion of the

up the roadway into shape for travel.
The Fordson that was used in this
work is one that is sold at $G75 and
has been very highly recommended
to the city for use in the street de
partment of the municipal govern
ment. The streets, alleys and bridg
es committee will look over the work
of the tractor and prepare to submit
their report for the next session cf
the city council.

JAMES FOAL
IS VICTIM OF A
BOLDJiOLDUP
While Going Home Last Evening
About 11 o'clock, Msets Two Men
Who Stick Him Up.
From Friday's Dally.
Last evening, James Rebal. trea
surer of the local Eagles lodge was
returning to his home on North
Tenth street shortly after 11 o'clock
when he was the victim of two bold
highwaymen, who proceeded to stick
him up and relieve him of $17 in
currency as well as a bunch of keys
that he was carrying.
The robbery. was conducted in a
very bold manner and occurred in
front of the residence of Andrew
Kroehler on Washington avenue and
a short distance from the home of
Mr. Rebal.
The victim of the holdup had been
attending the meeting of the Eagles
and was enroute home with little
thought of robbers lying in wait for
him and as he passed the Kroehler
home he noticed two men standing
cn the sidewalk, but thought nothing
of the matter until they separated
and as he started to pass between
them one of the men commanded him
to throw up his hands and both of the
men pulled guns with which they
kept Mr. Rebal covered while they
searched him for his money. He was
carrying a pocketbook in the hip
pocket of his trousers containing $15
as well as $2 in small change and his
keys in another of the pockets which
were secured and just about this time
the door of the Kroehler heme opened
and one of the robbers commanded
Mr. Rebal to lower his hands and
keep quiet while they proceeded to
make their escape, going west in the
direction of the Missouri Pacific pas
senger station.
Mr. Rebal as soon as the robbers
had left him hastened to a phone
and called the authorities and Sheriff"
Quinton. Chief of Police Jones and
Officer Chandler hastened to the
scene of the held up. but were unable
to discover any trace of the parties al
though they made a careful search of
that portion of the city.
Mr. Rebal states that one of the
robbers was of medium height and
rather heavy set and this one of the
stick-up men did the talking to the
victim while the other member of the
party was rather tall and was evi
dently making a careful effort to pre
vent Mr. Rebal from getting a clear
view of his face. Both men were
rather shabbily dressed Mr. Rebal ob
served in the hurried search that they
were making of his person.
The opening of the door of the
Kroehler home frightened the robbers
before they had completed the search
of the person of Mr. Rebal and they
overlooked two checks aggregating
$150 which he had placed in one of
the pockets of his vest but which of
course would have been valueless to
the robbers.
The case looks as though it might
be the work of local parties who were
familiar with the fact that Mr. Rebal
was treasurer of the Eagles and stuck
him up on the return from the lodge
meeting trusting to secure a large
sum of money that n ight have been
in his possession.
RETURNS FROM MEETING
OF THE UNITED CLOTHIERS
C. C. Wescott of This City, Who Was
in Attendanoe at the Meeting in
Kansas City, Returns Home
from Friday's Dally.
This morning C. C. Wescott return
ed home from Kansas City, where for
the past few days he has been in at
tendance at the meeting of the United
Clothiers association and enjoyed
very much the sessions of the repre
sentatives of the large clothing es
tablishments of the west.
Mr. Wescott states that represen
tatives of the large Xew York houses
were present as well as the whole
sale clothing men of the middle
west with their new lines of goods
for the fall and winter trade and he
was able "to secure a large number
of excellent buys in the clothing line
for his store here and which will
give the Plattsmouth people the ad
vantage of the prices secured and
the extra fine quality of goods.
The general feeling at the meet
ing was that there would be no rad
ical reduction in prices in the fall
lines of goods as the New York gar
ment makers have been assured of
the present wage scale and which
means that there will be no further
reductions in the prices of the finish
ed garments. The woolen mills have
also been operating at only about
fifty per cent of their capacity and
this has had a tendency to make the
clothing lines much slimer and the
supply inadequate for the demand.
It was felt among the clothing
men that the settlement of the Ger
man peace terms would have a gen
eral beneficial effect on the business
condition of the country as ODenine
the way for a renewal of foreign '
trade and stimulating the industries
of this country. .

work.
Small plants are maintained at
Weeping Water and Union that have
proven successsful. but they are not
prepared on the scale that the N'e

From Thursday' Pnilv.
One of the oldest and best men in
the train service of the Burlington
was John J. Buttery, who passed
away yesterday morning at his homp
at 1204 U street. Lincoln, after an
illness of short duration. For thirty
two years Mr. Buttery has been in
the train service of the railroad and
was one of the most highly respect
ed and esteemed men in the service.
The deceased was the son of Jo
seph H. Buttery and wife, pioneer
residents of Plattsmouth. Mr. Buttery
coming here in IS;. 7 and his wife lo
cating here a year later and it was
in the old family home, now occupied

His boyhood and youth were spent
in this city and on the completion
of his school work, he took up sev
eral positions' in the business houses

as a clerk in the Burlington store
house here.
In .May. 1M0. .Mr. Buttery was
united in marriage in Plattsmouth

mony being performed by the late
Dr. J. T. aBird. pastor of the First
Presbyterian church. Shortly after

PROMOTERS PUT
OUT OF BUSINESS
Licenses to Box Can be Issued Only
to Bona Fide Organizations
in Existance a Year.
The American Legion having
recommended the bill regulating box
ing and wrestling, that organization
will be called upon to assume some
responsibility for its enforcement.
Secretary II. H. Antles of the depart
ment of public welfare is charged
with the enforcement of the new law.
but he intends to call a conference
of American Legion officials for the
purpose of establishing rules and
regulations which he is authorized
bv law to make. These rules will
not be in conflict with the law where
the act is specific.
For instance the secretary is pro
hibited" by law from issuing a license
to any individual or person who de
sires to profit by promoting boxing or
wrestling matches. The law appears
to thus put the professional sporting
promoter for profit out of business.
Mr. Antles finds the law says the re
ceipts of exhibitions or matches can
be paid out only to principals or con
tenders and their assistants and such
officials as may be designated by
rules and regulations adopted by the
secretary of public welfare.
It will also be impossible to go
contrary to that part of the law
which prohibits the use of gloves
weighing less than six ounces.
As further evidence that the pro
fessional and profit sharing promoter
is to be put out of business the law
provides that licenses for boxing and
wrestling shall be issued only to cor
porations or organizations that have
been in existence one year and whose
principal business is something other
than ihe giving of such exhibitions.

COSTLY ACCIDENT
One of the plate glass windows in
the front of the Stanfield book store
was broken some time Tuesday even
ing and will cause a loss . of some
$90 to the owners of the building
to replace. The glass was damaged
some months ago by being struck
with flying particles of an auto
chain and a small place broken in
the window, but it was not thought
that the window was so seriously
damaged that it would be necessary
to replace it.
The glass was broken out after the
store was closed and as far as can
be learned there was no one near the
window at the time that it crashed
inward and caused the almost com
plete demolishing of the glass.

BUSY TIME TODAY
Judge Archer Has Session That is Re
minder of Old Times and Fines
Handed Out tc Two Parties
Frm Frlrtav'n fHv.
This morning the court of Police
Judge Archer reminded one of the
dear, dead days before the great
drouth fell over our fair land and
two parties were docketed on the
blotter for olVenses connected villi
the liquor traffic, one for having loo
much on the inside of hrs person and
one for the possesion of a small
amount ol'the drink that cheers as
well as illuminates.
Isadore Waintroub was the first
caller and was charged on the com
plaint of Chief of Police Jones with
having been in a state of intoxica
tion last evening on the streets of
the city and for this offense he was
handed a fine of $10 and costs
amounting to $13 which he paid
and was released from custody.
The charge of possession of intox
icating linuor was filed against Lynn
Cook by Chief of Police Jones who
found a small quantity of the liquor
in the room cf Mr. Cook and for
which he was brought before the
court. Judge Archer assessed a fine
of $100 and costs amounting to $113
against the young man. The amount
of liquor found was very small, be
ing hardly more than a small gla-ss-ful
and which the young man had
secured for his own use. but which
was sufficient to constitute a viola
tion of the prohibition law.

enjoyable comedies here in Borne time
and Kept everyone in the best of
