death to five of the men and hurled
Ralya thirty feet distant and where
he gradually regained consciousness
to find the explosion had left death
and destruction in its wake. Tie was
able to dr?g himself and, tottering,
walk to the mine entrance where his
cries attracted the attention of the
workers and rescuers who hiid been
called there and Ralya was assisted
from the mine after showing the
rescuers where the explosion had
t;:l:en place and where the unfortu
nate workmen had been when he seen
them last.

pronounced upon them, they being
given the choice of separating them
selves from the confines of our fair
city within a period of ten hours or
suffer the consequences of having to

THE JUNE BRIDE IS HAPPY
Here it is again. The merry month
of June, the joyous period when
church bells peal in happy tones to
spread the glad news that two hearts
have been pledged as one; when love
nests are feathered with equal rap
ture in flats and mansions; when the
wedding march becomes the inter
national anthem and the whole
world smiles.
What a blessing to be a bride in
this June of 1925 or a bridegroom
for that matter. Truly it was a bless
ing but never so much as now. For
let's go back a few decades.
After the honeymoon Mr. Bride
groom proudly rode with his Only
One behind Old Dobbin to the cozy
nook where rambler roses twined.
Then, if he was a really thoughtful
bridegroom, Jie filled all the shiny
new lamps with kerosone, to save
Her dainty fingers; he grabbed a
trusty ax and marched out to the
brand new woodshed where a cord
of brand new wood was stacked.
He split kindling and chopped
wood until his hands were blistered
and there was fuel enough to make
the old cookstove roar until it quite
wilted the Only One's housedress and
finally produced that mysterious
thing, the bride's first meal. June,
with a June sun shining, was a bad
time to cook a first meal in those old
days. Even a bride is not lovely
with a red perspiring face such as
the old cook stove always gave her.
How much nicer now when the
lovebirds roll home in a street car,
cook the meals over gas with all the
heat devoted to the cooking and
none to the warm June air, draw the
water to wash the dishes from an
ever ready supply in the Ruund auto
matic heater and spend romantic
evenings in the comfort of electric
breezes.
Ring on, wedding bells, and may
the bride indeed bless the day she
was born, a day late enough for her
housekeeping to be gas and electric
al housekeeping, with every appli
ance from curling iron to vacuum
cleaner to retain that smooth brow
and the smile of those cupid bow
lips.

early in the morning the relatives
commenced to arrive from all parts

well filled baskets of good things
from the farms and homes and which
placed on rhe long tables served to
provide a real feast for the pleasant
ever...
I In.- iittendance at the reunion was
not us U rge as usual owing to the

Alhambra. California, also Mr. and
Mrs. Samuel Huebner and daughters,

time the Huebner family, with the

ing and at 3 o'clock there was a
program and business session held,
Mrs. Dreamer presiding over the
meeting.

Vallery and Mrs. S. O. Cole, brothers!
and sisters, sang one of the old and
well loved songs. "The Church in
the Wildwood." This number, given
by the members of the family, was
especially enjoyed as it was a song
that had been sung together often
in the years past and took back over
the flight of the years the old times
to them.
At the close of the meeting all

'Till We Meet Again."

PARTIES COM
PLAIN OF BE-
JG STOPPED
Searches of All Travelers on King of
Trails Highway North of This
City Last Night Reported.
From Tuesday's Daily
Last night travelers over the King
jof Trails hgihway north of this city
rcjwri u general Muppuit; aiiu M'uitu
ing of all cars that were passing
along the highway, the searches be
ing conducted by Constable Svoboda
and a stranger, supposedly a law en
forcing officer.
This is the first time that these
wholesale searches have been made
of all cars along the highway and
created more or less indignation
among the travelers who had been
at Omaha visiting the parks and the
atres and who were compelled to
submit to a frisk from the parties
who had stopped them on the high
way. These wholesale searches failed to
reveal any booze runners among the
travelers and peaceful residents who
were homeward bound from outings
in the state metropolis and the net
result of the searches was the appre
hension of one party, a traveling
man, who had accumulated a load of
liquor but which was carried on the
interior of the man and did not re
veal any liquor being transported.
The man was given a fine of $50 and
costs in the county court before
Judge Duxbury this morning.
While the stopping af cars that are
supposed to be booze runners is
within the judgment of the officers,
it would seem that the general hold
ing up of all cars is an indignity
that does not rest well with the gen
eral public. A large number of tour
ists were passing through and many
were very much "put out" at having
to stop and have their cars ransacked
and their belongings pawed over.
Several stated that their travels in
the future would be along roads that
would not cause them to have to bo
stopped and searched as thoroughly
as if they were passing from one
country to another instead of mere
ly traveling along a peaceful high
way in heir own United States.
These wholesale searches in the
past have created much dissatisfac
tion and complaints from the general
public from all parts of eastern Ne
braska, who are in the habit of using
the King of Trails for traveling. The
general feeling is against the prac
tice of searching rather than the
persons doing the searching as the
average law abiding American does
not like to be subjected to a general
search as though! a suspicious charac
ter. FUNERAL OF RUSSELL WILES
From Tuesday's Dally
Last Sunday occurred the funeral
of the little son of Mr. and Mrs.
John Wiles, who resides some three
miles northwest of Murray, the little
ore having passed away last Friday
after but a short Illness. All that
loving hands and the best of medi
cal attention could do had been done,
but the life of the little one went
out and returned to the Maker, leav
ing the hearts of the parents torn
and sore. They realize, though, that
the little son is only waiting for them
on the other shore, for the time when
he shall welcome the parents after
the turmoil of this life is over.
The little son was born September
IS, 1024, and passed this life on June
19, 1925, and had not been here
quite one year. The funeral services
were conducted at the home, where
all the tender associations of the
past nine months had endeared little
Russell to the parents, the Rev. W.
A. Taylor, of Union, speaking words
of comfort to the bereft parents, and
interment was in the beautiful St.
John's cemetery northwest of Ne-
hawka, where the little body will
sleep the sleep that is peaceful and
which shall have its awakening in
that other world, where there is no
more sickness, pain or death.
TO SHOW WAR PICTURE
One of the greatest arguments
against war is to see war as it real
ly is. That is the reason the Amer
ican Legion is bringing to Platts
mouth July 8th and 9th, the picture
"Nebraska Under Fire," showing ac
tual scenes of the home boys in the
front line trenches in France, in the
hospitals, under aerial bombard
ment, on the transports, etc. This
is the official U. S. war film and de
picts war in all its horrors including
the inhumane gas attacks used by
the Germans. It is not shown with
any idea of stirring up feeling again
st the Germans that has been allowed
to dissolve in the years since the Ar
mistice was signed, but wholly as an
example of the horrible effects of
war and a lesson in favor of world
peace. The picture will be shown at
the Parmele and advertisements of
it will appear in the Journal in due
time.
FILES SUIT IN COURT
From Tuesday's Daily
This morning action was filed in
the office of the clerk of the district

Bowles, mother of Mrs. Walter Cran
dall of this city, who was operated on
there some two weeks ago, is now

WAS IMPRESSIVE SIGHT
From Tuesday's Dally
Dr. A. D. Caldwell, the well known
dentist, now located at Omaha, was
one of the members of the fifty piece
symphony orchestra that played yes
terday at the convention of the
Disabled American Veterans which is
holding its national convention in
Omaha. The scene was most impres
sive as the convention opened, the
doctor states, the large audience
standing silent as the wreaths were
being placed on the tombs of the
unknown dead at Arlington, Paris,
London, Rome and Brussels, and fol
lowed by the singing of "Taps" by
Madame Schumann-Heinke, who also
sang "The Star Spangled Banner."-
The veterans bear the marks of
their service, Dr. Caldwell states, in
the many who are blind, or crippled
in the loss of arms or legs, but all
are cheerful and having a great time
in the meeting and reunion with
each other at the big convention.
