Today was moving day with the Plattsmouth State bank and taking advantage of the holiday, the books and records of the bank were remov ed from the old quarters to the hand some new building at Fifth and Main streets that has been prepared for the banking house. j The officers and stockholders ofi the bank can certainly feel a most j pardonable pride in the building" that is in the future to house tmsi larre and progressive financial in-' stitution and it adds much to the ap- . . , Tr . , , rearar.ee of the busings section of Sustained Injury Caused by a the city. j Slug From a Slingshot.

The entrance of tt:e banking house is on the Main street front and one cf tbe mo-t artistic of entrances has befn prepared for the bank and vhich with its massiveness gives a very plc-.-.sing note to the general as-r-ec: of the front of the new build-i ing. I Entering the banking room, one is impressed with the simple, yet ef fective manner in which the inter-' irr of tbe building has been arrung-: ed. This room is one of the Lane!-' somest that can be found in any brink in the broad confines of the state. The fttings of the Lar.kins rfra are in real mahogany and wi.ite marble and certainly are ar tistic in the extreme, the deep, rich ; cc'oring of the wood work standing' out strikingly against the white mar ble and the whole forming a pleat ing picture to the eye. I i At the front of the room, enclosed' by the railing of marble and tirb' wood is the office cf the president and cashier and the desks of the low type well are in the mahogany and the simplicity of design presen-s a distinct richness of tone.ithp Incidems occurring from time to Runnintr the length of the counting room is the partition separating the banking rocm v. here the clerks are emr.loyed and that portion devoted to the patrons of the bank.

K. Murphy and wife were motoring to Omaha they had a very strenuous time as the result of the car runing in to a herd of some twenty head of cattle on the highway near Fort Crook. According to the members of the auto party they were following a Ford car on the road that was rais- ' ing more or less dust and that they j were onto the herd of cattle which I was being driven along the road south by Joe Miller of La Platte, the owner. As soon as the party saw the cattle, Mr. Murphy applied the brakes and the speed of the car was not over twelve miles an hour when they rolled into the forefront of the herd. One of the excited and enraged bovines drove her horn into one of the front lights of the car and put it out ot commission and to tne mem ,l0rs of the party there appeared to 1,e no damage done to any of the cat- ie at mac ume. When the auto reached the paving at the South Side they were accosted ly Officers Jackman and Fleming of the South Side police force and held for a short time as Mr. Miller had called in from Fort Crook that one of the cattle had suffered a broken leg. As there was no evidence to hoid the parties they were allowed to go. Mr. Miller not appearing. On their return trip the autoists pgain passed the herd and state that jthey counted the cattle and that all of the twenty were there and none apparently injured and at the time of the accident Mr. Lugsch had got ten out and looked to see if the cat tle were injured in any way but fail ed to find any damage had been done aside from that inflicted on the car. Mr. Lugsch and Mr. Murphy drove out to La Plattee yesterday after noon but the owner of the supposed injured animal was unable to pro duce it so that a settlement could be made.
