From Saturday's Dally
Last evening the dining room of
the Hotel Perkins was filled with a
party of some eighteen members of
the Plattsmouth Credit Bureau to en
joy the very fine banquet prepared
and served them by the management
of the hotel.
During the past year the members
of the bureau have been pledged to
attend the meetings of the organiza
tion and In their failure to do. so
have had to pay a fine, which has in
the past year formed a neat sum and
the members who have been fined
were invited to participate in the
feast last evening, after which they
voted to continue the fining system
for the next year as it was certainly
a fine return of the penalties im-
p3 posed.
The dining room was made very
attractive for the banquet and the
tables arranged with decorations of
pink and green, green ferns and vines
forming the centerpiece while pink
candles and attractive candlesticks
added to the charm and beauty of
the scene.
The menu served by the hotel man
agement was one to tempt the most
discriminating and was enjoyed to
the utmost by all the members of the
party. The menu was as follows:
Fruit Cocktail
Cream of Tomato Soup
Fried Chicken
Mashed Potatoes Creamed Peas
Vegetable Salad
Pumpkin Pie with Whipped Cream
Coffee Mints
The members of the banquet party
spent some time in visiting and dis
cussing the work of the bureau fol
lowing the banquet and brief re
marks were made by the various
members of the party.
The Plattsmouth Credit Bureau
was first formed as a part of the Ad
club but has since formed a separate
organization, the officers of which
are H. A. Schneider, president; E. A.
Fricke, secretary; F. M. Bestor, treas
urer. The bureau has been found to be J
a very valuable asset to the business
life of the community and it was the
decision of the members that they
continue during the present year the
system of fines for those who failed
to be in attendance at meetings.

riod of Several Months.
From Saturday's Daily
This morning at the family home
in the north portion of the city oc
curred the death of Mrs. Philip
Stoehr one of the old and highly re
spected residents of this community.
where she has made her home for the
past 3 6 years.
For the past few weeks the condi
tion of the heaKh of Mrs. Stoehr ha3
been failing gradually and as the
days sped by it was clear that the
lifetime of the wife and mother was
numbered by a brief span of time. In
her last illness the wife and mother
was given the care of loving hands
but which availed little in checking
the approach of the death messenger.
Anna Maria Lohnes was born near
Pekin. Tazewell county, Illinois, July
9, 1859, where she was reared to
womanhood and at the age of 20, in
1879, was united in marriage to
Philip Stoehr, the amrriage occur
ring at Sand Prairie, Illinois. To bless
the lives of this estimable couple
three children have come to their
home, Mrs. Margaret Schroeder of
Bellevue, Mrs. Lula Keil and George
Stoehr, both of near Cedar Creek.
Mr. and Mrs. Stoehr came to Ne
braska in the year 1889 and settled
in the vicinity of Cedar Creek where
they made their. home for a great
many years, moving to this city two
years ago where they have since re
sided.

the fall season, a large floral arch
being formed in the doors of the
parlors, beneath which the young
people took their station for the
ceremonv.
Preceeding the ceremony the beau
tiful bridal chorus from "I-ohen-
jghren" was played very charmingly
by Mrs. Raymond Berger and to
which the two bridal couples entered
the parlors to take their stations
before Rev. H. G. McClusky. pastor
of the First Presbyterian church who
read the marriage lines. The beauti
ful ring service was used in the join
ing of the lives of the quartet.
The two brides were each gowned
in very striking costume of silk in
the pleasing cocoa shade, wearing
picture hats to match and with bou
quets of brides roses and sweet peas.
The marriage was witnessed bv
only the immediate members of the
familv of the brides.
Following the wedding the young
people were showered with well
wishes of the relatives and left
shortly after the wedding fo the
north where they will enjoy a short
honeymoon at Minneapolis with
friends.
On their return from the honey
moon, Mr. and Mrs. Tiedge will make
their home at Omaha while Mr. and

ing ladies have a large circle of
friends in this city and at Xehawka,

TRAVEL IS CHEAP
From Saturday's Daily
Were it not for the mud and rain
that prevails on the highways at
the present time, the motorists be
tween this city and Omaha would be
in the heyday of their enjoyment.
The Platte river bridges over which
the travel must go are now engeged
in competition that looks good to
give the traveler the benefit of the
rates. The T. II. Tollock bridge has
announced a cut of more than half in
their rates, autos that formerly cost
25c now crossing for 15c and with
out any charge for additional pass
engers while trucks can spin over
the bridge for 25c each regardless of
the load, instead of the former higher
rates.
The new bridge was open for
travel today and was free for the
day but will be operated as a toll
bridge by the K. of T. Bridge Co.,
until turned over to Cass and Sarpy
counties to still be continued as a
toll bridge until the two counties can
gather in enough revenue to make
the bridge free.
As one resident of the city remark
ed, "it is getting cheaper to travel
than to stay at home."
