TIME BRINGS A
LARGE NUMBER OF
CHANGES TO CITY
Review of the City in the Year 1881
Shows What a Great Differ
ence Has Been Wrought
The story of Plattsmouth of forty
vears ago as it appears in the old re
braeka Herald for 1881 is printed
below and will be especially inter
csting to the older residents of the
community who are familiar with the
situation at that time:
"The fact that Plattsmouth has
fairly entered upon an era of pros
perity, is evidenced In all directions.
For nearly a score of years the city
had seen but little growth and even
the oldest and most sanguine friends
had about become discouraged, and
the wonderful activity now visible
must be grateful In the extreme to
the good people who have stood so
loyally by the town of their early
love. Among the solid improvements
of the past year may be mentioned
the Gorder block, two story brick,
with Btone trimmings; the Weckbach
& Drew block, two story brick, iron
front; Golding's brick block; Rasgor-
shek's two story brick block, stone
trimmings; the very handsome store
of F. Carruth. stone trimmings, iron
front; the Union block built by Dr. j
John Black and the M. E. church
The Herold block and the Fitzgerald
block, three story brick, stone trim
mings, are among the older im
provements. In the way of residences
old and new are those of Capt. Palm
er on College Hill; the fine two story
brick dwelling of Dr. Black on
Fourth street; the residence of J. A
MacMurphy of the Herald, built by
Peter A. Sarpy at Trader's Point and
moved to Plattsmouth; the residence
of F. E. White, two story brick man
sard roof; residence of J. V. Week
bach a "house of many gables;'
residence of A. w. McLaughlin on
Sixth street; residence of Hon. Geo
S. Smith, surveyor general, on Sixth
street, commanding a fine view of
Iowa and the Missouri river; resi
dence of Thos. Marsland. agent of the
B. & M.
The Churches
Following is a list of the churches
of Plattsmouth: Episcopal St. Luke's
Memorial church, built by Mrs
YOung, of New York City, gothic
stained glass windows, rector, H. B.
Burgess; Catholic church. Rev. Fr.
Lynch; Baptist church, no pastor;
Presbyterian church, a small neat
structure. Rev. Mr. Baird, pastor;
Methodist, a commodious wooden
structure, Rev. Mr. Wilson, pastor.
The Fair Ground
"To the west of the city is. a fair
ground with a gool half mile track,
good . buildings, . and probably the
finest natural grove, of trees of any
in the state.,- From the center of the
ground there is a magnificent view of
the Missouri and Platte rivers, the
Iowa bluffs and the Platte river val
ley.
Schools
"The city has three ward schools
and a high school the latter a fine
three story and mansard roof brick
structure with stone trimmings, sit
uated on what is known as High

tus, the efficient principal, Mr. Drum

Newspapers
The Herald, weekly, published by
J. A. MacMurphy, has the largest
county circulation and is a prosxes

of the oldest papers in Nebraska and
is now in the 17th year, having been
established by H. D. Hathaway in

WHAT THINK YE?
This question I ask because of my
belief that what we think i3 the real
vital matter of life. To say this does
not imply any measure of disparage
ment of what we say or what we do.
There is without doubt a great im
portance in these two things, but
back of what we say and back of
what we do theire is a cause and this
cause is usually what we think.
I wish to urge the value and im
portance of right thinking. When
I do this, I am not stressing the mat
ter from the theological viewpoint
chiefly, although being a person who

matters of life should be the great
ambition of intelligent people. Cor
rect thinking is of such vast import
ance that the men and women who
are able to lead their fellowmen to
improvement or advance in this par
ticular. I consider a great boon to
humanity. Of course, the greatest
benefit that comes to the correct
thinker Is the personal benefit. There
is an indescribable benefit or good
that comes with correct thinking.
Persons who have been able to find
the truth on important matters agree
that the exhileration attending this
discovery is one of the most import
ant experiences of life. The scientist
who linds out a great scientific truth
is filled with much joy. The inven
tor who find? out a great truth is
equally conscious of a great uplift of
soul and the religious man Who comes
to know in his own soul a great re
ligious truth sings of it in Hallelu
jahs. What we think has more to do with
our success, our happiness and our
prosperity than any one thing. Thru
life of all kinds the secret of power
and influence of the wholesome port
is correct thinking thinking
things.
Poor thinking, false thinking, un
wholesome thinking, should become
to us a thing to be dreaded as much
if not more than physical disease or
financial loss. It probably is true
that no one can hope to escape en
tirely from incorrect thinking. Such
i3 our limitation and such our train
ing that even unto the end of life
we shall be more or less likely to err
and sometimes seriously in our think
ing, but there is a really marvelous
inspiration in the idea that little by
little e may throw off our errors of
thought and 'acquire a 'wealth of
thoughts or truths which shall make
us conscious of a great freedom, a
marvellous liberty. The great Mas
ter of Truth said:
"If ye continue in my word, then
are ye my disciples indeed; And ye
shall know the truth and the truth
shall make you free." John 8:31-32.
In the Epistle to the Philllstines.
chapter 4, Paul enumerates many
things justice, purity, beauty or
loveliness, virtue, praise, and finishes
with the counseL. "Think on these

ceive proper credit
There were four persons directly
connected with the case. Of the four,
two are dead. The young woman of
Hayes Center who expected soon to
marry Francis Alexander, died soon
after the operation. Young Alexander,
her sweetheart, shot himself while
hunting. It was said to be accidental.
The physician and the nurse who
assisted him in the operation are the
remaining two important cogs. The
nurse will soon be brought to trial.
Nor is it certain that Dr. Fields
has drained the last bitter drop from
the cup nor that his prison term will
be counted as payment in full. On
February 10, he will be called before
the state board of medical examiners
to show why his license should not
be revoked. The Omaha physician
carried his fight for freedom to the
supreme court and lost.
Warden Fenton said that ,the doc
tor probably will be put at work in
the shirt factory. In regard to a
rumor that Dr. Field's would be
transferred to the reformatory for
first offenders, the warden says he
knows nothing of such a move. The
true J physician is too old to be sent there
(unless ar, a trusty from the state
prison. If such transfer were made,
it would be from a professional stand
point. Asked whether or not it would
be advisable to draw on the doctor's
professional skill in the light of his
conviction, the warden said:
"Why not? He cannot pull any of
that stuff out here."
Another state prisoner to arrive
from Omaha Friday was Jack Alex
ander, sentenced to from three to ten
years for burglary.
