state.
The ladies of the Royal Neighbors
of America had charg" of the ban
quet and their preparation and ser
vice left nothing to be wishee. in tae
way of enjoyment and pleasure to all
of the members of the party. The

made very attractive by the use cf
tulips and other of the spring flow

pleasures of the bankers and their
party.
At the banquet H. A. Guttman of
the Hank of Murdoch presi:?:-.'. very
pleasantly and introduced the various
speakers of the evening and through

and was able to give the members of
the party many interesting points.

HEAL SUMMER DAY
From Thursday's raily
The temperature yesterday after
noon here was of the kind that
warned the residents of the com
munity that the pood old .summer
time was fast creeping in on them
and that ere a few weeks hcve elaps
ed real summer weather will be with
us. The temperature rose to 92 dur
ing the late afternoon and was the
hottest day of the year so far. The
extreme heat produced a slight rain
fall that occurred at 1 o'clock this
morning and which cam? at a much
needed time as the weather condi
tions have been extremely poor for
the growth of gardens and farm
crops, it being very dry and in many
cases delayed the planting of gardens
owing to the dryness of the soil. One
of the good soaking Nebraska rains
is just what is needed now to place
the growing crops in the best of
shape.
BURLINGTON CAR
MEN VISIT CiTY
THIS MonniNG
Representatives from Head Offices at
Chicago, and from Burlington,
Iowa, Confer Here.
From Thursday's lailv
This morning a group of represen
tatives of tne head on ices of the Bur
lington railroad at Chicago, as well
as foremen of the shops at West Bur
lington. Iowa, were here for a con
ference at the Plattsmouth shops
overing lines of repair work on re
frigerator cars and Ireight cars.
This is the second of a series of
ccintereneos as to the standardization
of the repair work on these cars and
the arranging of a general system of
naking the repairs that will result
in a more uniform method ot making
the repairs on cars which it is ex-
pjected will give a great deal better
result to the railroad company.
Superintendent William Baird and
Foreman Robert Kayes of the freight
r Tepair department were present
yesterday at West Burlington at a
similar conference where the manner
of making the repairs and workman
ship was discussed by the officials
and the foremen of the shops and this
was followed by the visit to this city
o inspect the system that has been
in use here and which has developed
very high standard cf workman
ship.
The repair work here has been of
the very best type and has attracted
the attention of officials of the com-
any during their tour of inspection
here lest month and the manner of
carrying on the work here will be
demonstrated to the visitors today.
CONSTABLE MAKES ARREST
From Thursday's Daily j
Bast evening. Constable John C. j
Brittain made the rest of Paul Pois- ;
all. a seventeen-year-old boy, who. it j
is alleged, was caught makinc a sale1
of a ejuart of whiskey (prohibition
variety) and ihe lad was taken to
the court house where he was brot :
before County Attorney W. G. Kieck.
Hit information was filed against
the young lad for possession and i
selling of intoxicants and for which
he was arraigned before Justice
William Weber and fined on two
counts of $100 eae:h, totaling $217.
This matter, however, will probably
net stand as yesterday was a legal
holiday and the courts were not sup
posed to be transacting business.
The young man was turned over
to Sheriff E. P. Stewart to be looked
after until final disno-ition can be
ni-ide c:f the case. The county at
torney is hopeful that the boy, who
is a very bright and attractive young
lad, may be able to be placed in some
institution or place where he may
complete his school work and be
properly trained for a good and use
ful citizen, as he has all of the men
tal and physical qualifications of be
ing a fine man, if he has the right
opportunity, which the county attor
ney feels would be a great deal more
beneficial to himself and to society
than to be allowed to continue on
his present course.

BOYS SKIPPING
SCHOOL FACE
MUCH TROUBLE
Constant Reports of Boys Absent
From School Lead Authorities
to Check Them Up.
From Friday's Jaily
The court y authorities have, in
the past few weeks, had a gre-at deal
of complaint from the fact that are
numbers of boys of school age that
are not in attendance at the schools
as they should be and the law re
quires them to be.
These facts have led to the de
cision that the law must be strictly
enforced and that the children un
less they can show good and sufficient
reason will have ta be in school or
suffer the consequence thereof. The
county truant officer, Constable Tom
Svoboda. In s been out rounding up
a number of the youngsters and more
are to be brought to time if they are
not back on the job of learning their
three "It's" in the public schools.
These children playing "hookey"
are largely doing it without the
knowledge of their parents but there
nre sevsral casos the county authori
ties report where the parents are as
neglectful of the education of their
children as the boys and girls them
selves and by their attitude they
contribute lo the delinquency of the
children.
With these facts in view the ou
thorities find that they will have to
act in the parental attitude and ac
cordingly they arc;- stepping out to
see if these practices cannot be
checked and the boys and girls either
kept in school or placed where
they J
will be given the proper training

' Th" friends in this city of Mr. and
Mrs. Frank H. Dunbar are- regretting
very much to learn that they are ex
pecting to Joave in the next few
.'weeks from this community, where
they have resided for a great many
years, for the Pa'ific coast, to make
their home there for the future.
The elc.-ing of the business inter
ests of 3!r. Dunbar here gives him
tho opportunity of taking a much
deserved rcst and in which he will
have opportunity of looking e ver
another locality and which he is ex
pecting to find on the west coa'-t,
where it is also expected the climate
will be beneficial to the health of
Mrs. Dunbar, which has been quite
poorly of lute years.
The family have made this their
home for many years. Mr. H'.inbar
having been the proprietor of the
Hotel Iteilly here for years end hrter
took over the ownership of the bil-
Uiard parlor that he has since man
aged and which a few days ago was
disposed of to Charles Peterson and
William Kraeger. Mrs. Dunbar has
also been very active in the life of
the community during her residonc--here,
serving in the lied Cross v ,rk
here for several years and has al
ways shown a very unselfish inter
est in all public movements that she
was asked to assist in and treely
gave hor time and assistance- in all
of these movements. She Las iA
served as the president of the St.
Mary's Guild of the St. Luke's
church for several terms and has
been one of the hardest working
members of the church in all of its
various de-partments.
That all the fucccss and happi
ness possible will accompany this
family when they leave this city for
the golden west is the sincere wish
of the Targe number of friends and
they well deserve all of the good
thirds that insy be theirs in the
future.
TRUFFLES ARE RIPE
The epicurians of these parts
have in the last few days been re
gailing themselves with some of the
offerings of nature? to the palate of
man, that of the juicy and tooth
some truffle, the growth of the wild
wood that has become a dainty and
delicious food. The truffles have
D(en
a little slow on account of the
fart that there has been no real
warm rains that bring up the truf
fles in great shape. Such devotees
of the sport of truffle hunting as
Bob Walling and Clyde Jackson have
been out scouring the wood and
r.andbar east of the river and secur
ing small messes of the fu?icri, but
the average amateur hunter has not
had much luck. Several of the local
stores have l ad them on sale in the
last two days and they command a
sharp demand frcm the lovers of
good eating. The truffle has it over
the mushroom as their shape is dis
tinct and r.ot confusing as is that
of the mushroom and their poisonous
cousin, the toadstool.
