CELEBRATED
5 OTH WEDDING
ANNIVERSARY
MR. AND MRS. F.
THIS CITY ENJOY SUNDAY
WITH RELATIVES.
On Sunday, September 4th, two of
the estimable people of the com
munity, Mr. and Mrs. F. G. Fricke,
observed their fiftieth wedding an
niversary and theoccasion was most
fittingly celebrated at the home on
North sixth street by the members
of the family.
The golden wedding celebration
was arranged by the children and
most pleadingly carried out and the
day was one that the "members of
the Fricke family will long remem
ber with the greatest of pleasure.
The day was mainly devoted to a
purely family gathering, the chief
feature of which was the wedding
dinner, served to the bride and
groom of a half century ago. The
place cards were unique, consisting
of tiny photographs of Mr. and Mrs.
Fricke taken on their wedding day
so long ago. The relatives had gath
ered from this portion of the state
to spend the day at the Fricke home
and the greatest of fun and pleasure
reigned for the entire day as the
members of the party showered the
happy brjde and groom with their
well wishes for continued years of
future happiness.
Mr. and Mrs. Fricke were both
born in the far off lands across the
sea, Mr. Fricke being a native of the
city of Brunswick of the province
of that same name in Germany,
where he wasborn on April 6, 1S4C.
while Mrs. Fricke. whose maiden
name was Emma Niemeyer. was bora
at Hanover, the capital city of the
then independent kingdom of that
name on February 25, 18 4S.
Mr. Fricke came to the United
States in the year IS 66 and spent a
few years in the east, being married
to Mi.-s Niemeyer at "Williamsport,
Pennsylvania. September 4, 1S71.
It was shortly after marriage that
Mr. and Mrs. Fricke came westward
to make their home, settling first at
St. Louis and later going to Mound
City, Illinois, where they made their
home for a period of fifteen years,
coming to Nebraska in the year 18S3
and settling at Ashland, later remov
ing to Plattsmouth, where Mr. Fricke
purchased the drug store then own
ed by the late J. M. Roberts, and
which was at once transferred to the
firm of F. G. incize & Company, un-
der which title it has been operated
since that time.
Six children have come into the
lives of Mr. and Mrs. Fricke and it
was one of the pleasurable features
of the golden wedding that these
children were able to be present at
the gathering together with the six
grandchildren. The children present
were Carl G. Fricke, Miss Dora
Fricke, both r.f Plattsmouth; Dr.
Albert A. Fricke. Los Angeles, Cali

RETURNS FROM TRIP
TO PACIFIC COAST
Herman Spies, Veteran Cigarmaker,
Decides .that Plattsmouth. is
Trie Best Place After All
"The Boss" is back, was the report
on the streets last Sunday morning
and the many friends of Herman
Spies, the veteran cigermaker, were
delighted to greet him after an ab
sence of several months, during
which time he has been visiting on
the Pacific coast.
Mr. Spies had at one time thought
seriously of locating on the Pacific
coast but found that the conditions
there were not as rosy as he had ex
pected or the situation one that
would justify him in making a perm
anent location there. On his way
west he stopped at Trinidad. Color
ado, to visit with his son, Edmund,
and family, and from there traveled
over the southern route into Los
Angeles. During his stay in the
west ie visited over tome 200 miles
of the coast country and saw all the
interesting sights of the famous
beach resorts that have made Cali
fornia famous.
Mr. Spies is having the interior
of his building on lower Main street
cleaned up and is preparing to once
more embark in business in this
city, where for almcst forty years
he was a well known and the host
of friends will be pleased to learn
cf his decision to open up a regular
cigar store and manufactury Which
will be smiliar to the one he had
been conducting here for a number
of -years. ... - -
URGES COMMUNITY
EFFORT FOR RELIEF
j j Action in Easing the
. . . .
Burdens of Present Time will
Make for Improvement.
Mr. G. O. Dovey of the First Na
tional Bank, in commenting upon
the present situation has the follow
ing to say:
"After all, prosperity is largely a
matter of co-operation. If people
want better times, good prices and
favorable conditions in general, they
should realize that they must do
their part.
"Any citizen of Plattsmouth can
do his part by buying prudently,
liquidating his indebtedness all or in
part, and help the credit situation by
keeping his money where credit
comes from the bank.
"Anybody who buys goods from
sources outside of Plattsmouth or
who carries his bank account In
some neighboring town, can hardly
expect that business here at home is
gohig to be all that it should be.
"We can all co-operate by meet
ing our own individual responsibil
ity to the community and after we
jdo this, there is absolutely no ques
tion but what we can look forward
to a fall and winter which will com
pare favorably with the fall and win
ter reason of other years."

WAGE BATTLE .
IN BOX CAR AT
PAYNE, IOWA
w
AND WOMAN BADLY IN
JURED BROT HERE
Early Sunday morning there was
brought to this city from Pacific
Junction, Iowa, a man and woman
who were suffering from a terrible
beating up, and the man especially,
was in most serious condition, as his
head had been beaten in by a club
until it was a mass of bloody wounds
while the woman was also suffering
from a severe gash on the top of her
head which had come from a club in
the hands of four strange men.
The assault occurred late Saturday
night at Payne Junction, across the
river from Nebraska City. The injur
ed man and the woman were travel
ing together over the country enjoy
ing the life of tramping and the lady
was attired in overalls that made the
traveling via box cars much more
convenient. From the story told by
the woman, who recovered conscious
ness shortly after being brought to
this city, it seems that these two
parties were spending the night in a
box Pr on the siding near Payne
when Kur other "tourists" invaded
the car and discovering that the
man and woman had some money on
their persons, they proceded to stage
a "strong army" party and took the
coin away from the two, and during
the process the man, whose name it
was stated is Charles Hicks, suffered
a very severe beating with a small
sized fence post that the invaders
had armed themselves with before
staging the hold-up.
The resistance given the hold-up
men had been most desperate anu
Hicks had battled to the last until,
with his head a mass of bloody
wounds, he had been felled to the
floor of the car, as had the woman.
and the two men committing the
assault made their escape.
The injured parties remained in
the box cars and were brought on
o Pacific Junction wjiere their con
dition was discovered by the em
ployes in the Burlington yards and
the switching crew from this city
brought them on over to Plattsmouth
where they remained for some time
before their injuries were attended
to temporarily and the parties hur-
ied by auto to Omaha, where they ,
were placedw in the St. Catherine's (
hospital.
Reports received this morning from
Omaha state that both parties were -
doing very nicely and in the opinion
of the attending surgeons they will :
recover from the, terrific beating
ithout anyserious effect, although:
it will require some time for the in-,
uries to heal.
It is stated that the injured man:
is a resident or the south side in
Omaha and has been a man of splen-,
lid physical power and has in the
past been well known as a scrapper.
both in that city and in the army.
as he was in service during the world
war.
So far there has been no trace
found of the two men who commit-
ed the assault as they had some time
n which to rqake their escape, but
undoubtedly suffered some from the
efferts of the battle. When the car
was brought to this city, the inter-!
ior was found liberally sprinkled ' the strengthening of the team, ai
with hlnnd and the dress of the ter Connors, the southpaw of the
woman, which was lying in the car!
was saturated with blood, as was
also the can she had been wearing
at the time of the assault.
The woman gave her name as Ada
Jones and her address as 115 Paul-
ine street, St. Joseph, and the man's
name as Charles hicks, lbtn and
Chicago streets, Omaha. They had
met in St. Joseph and had started
out from there Saturday on their tour
which had come to such an untimely
ending. Miss Jones stated that she
was twenty-five years of age and had
just recently met Hicks.
The case was a peculiar one and
seriously affected the treatment of
the two injured parties as the trou
ble occurred in Fremont county,
Iowa, and therefore the Mills county
authorities at Pacific Junction would
not take the matter up and the par-
ties on being brought here found;
that the authorities of Cass county
did not care to assume the costs of
the case.
The difficulty was finally settled
by the Burlington railroad very
generously taking charge of the mat
ter and having their surgeons take
over j the care of the patients. Dr.
Seymour Smith of Omaha has charge
of the case at the St. Catherine's
hospital.

FANS SEE ONE BAD
AND ONE GOOD GAME
I Plattsmcuttf LosCs Sunday But Win
From Thurman Monday By
the Score of 5 to 4
The baseball fans of the city in
the last two days have had the op-
portunity of seeing one of the poor-
cst bames of the season and one of
the best that has been staged on the
lecal lot, between the Eagles of this
city and the Thurman (Iowa) team,
The opening of the two game
series Sunday resulted in a walk
away for the Iowa aggregation by
the score of 9 to 1. as the errors by
the locals assisted the visitors in
walking away with the battle, al-
though it should have been vastly
.different if the team here had played
the class of ball it is capable of do-
ing.
Yesterday the Eagles were in the
! game with pep from start to finish
and after a twleve inning contest
! won bv the score of 5 to 4. Mason
' was cn the mound for the Labor
Day event and received air-tight
sunport from his teamates and as a
result was a winner. Ed Gradoville
now catching for the Weeping Wa-
ter Boosters, was behind the plate
for the locals and his work aided in
team, did splendid work at the key-
stone sack and his fielding and good
judgment throughout the game.
Newman, who has been out of the
! game for a short time, was back on
the job in the infield and Christie
assisted in outer garden and these
of the Eagles most effective.
The crowd that attended the Mon
day game felt enthusiased over the
showing of the locals and felt that
it had been a real baseball treat in
the clever manner in which the two
teams peroformed.

WITH IMP !
ACCIDENTS
i
WOMAN KILLED NEAR UNION
AND TWO ACCIDENTS OC
CUR NEAR THERE
Monday was a day marked with
many very serious accidents in the
auto line and the vicinity of Union
in the south part of- the county was
particularly noticeable for the num
ber and seriousness of the mishaps.
The only fatality reported was
the killing of a lady named Walker,'
residing in Chicago, who in company
with her son and daughter, of Coun
cil Bluffs, were driving from Council
Bluffs south to Emporia, Kansas, the
accident occurring a few miles south
of Union.
The parties had driven along in
fine shape until they reached a very
slippery piece of road near the Hugh
Robb farm near Wyoming and the
brakes failing to hold the car while
descending a hill it turned over with
the result that all of the occupants
were fastened in the overturned car
and Mrs. Walker was pinned under
neath the steering wheel in such a
manner that it was impossible for
her to be extricated before death had
resulted from dislocation of the neck
of the unfortunate woman. The other
members of the party were able to
make their escape from the overturn
ed car only with the greatest of
difficulty. The car was badly dam
aged as a result of the accident.
Another accident occurred near
the farm home of County Commis
sioner C. F. Harris in which two
colored men were the chief partici
pants. It seems from the facts in
the case that the two cars had been
racing along the highway and as
they passed the Harris home, one of
the cars was forced out into the
ditch and the race was off. The win
ner, however, was elated at the suc
cess of the affair and turned to look
back at the loser In the ditch, when
his machine collided with a con
crete post along the highway and
hen there were two wrecks tied up.
People who saw the mlx-up state that
the cars were going very fast and in
fact it was lucky that both men
were not killed.
Roy Tounker, residing southeast
of Union, was another to get in a very
bad auto mix-up when his car col-
ided with the Ford coupe of a gen
tleman named Blakesley, of Council
Bluffs, on the highway east of Union
and as a result both cars were badly
damaged.
A Ford touring car was also over
timed on the roadway near the Dean
Austin farm east of Union, at the
corner where the roadway makes the
turn west into Union, but fortunately
no one was injured and only a few-
minor damages to the auto were
noticed.
