this county was concerned today
when the sealed verdict of the jury
was opened in the district court

verdict that the document that had
been presented for probate in the
county cort was not the last will and
testament of Henry Kettlehut. de

county court where the will was al
lowed on the presentation of the
same for probate to the district court
five of the daughters and two of the
sons of the deceased pioneer con
testing the will while the probating
of the will was supported by three
of the sons and one daughter.
Henry Kettlehut was one of the
early settlers of Eagle and vicinity,
coming there at an early day and by
his thrift accumulating many hun
dreds of acres of land in eastern!
Lancaster county and western Cass
county that he secured at a low
price and which by his work and
assistance of his sons were made val
uable.
The will that was presented left
to the daughters the sum of $1,500
in cash and which was secured by
the payment by three of the sons
Henry Kettlehut. Jr. Otto Kettlehut
and William Kettlehut of sums in
cash sufficient to pay the amount

WHO OWNED THE PINTS?
From Friday's Daily
A few days ago there was occasion
for soino wiring to be done at the
First Methodist church and as the
result of the explorations of the
workmen in the belfry of the church
there was unearthed three pints of
the real old honest to goodness
whiskey.
The work at the church was in
cident to wiring for a series of sig
nal bells for the use of the Sunday
school and County Judge A. H. Dux
burv. who is also the superintendent
of the Sunday school. W. C. Schaus.
deputy sheriff and Walter Herger
were the trio that were called upon
to do the wiring.
As the workmen were climbing
around in the space above the ceil
ing in the belfry they were to say
the least surprised to find three fine
husky pints of pre-war whiskey and
which from the label guarnteed
them to be of full strength and
quality and that they had been pur
chased of Adolph Geise. who prior
to 1917 was engaged in operating
the Schlitz saloon here, so the
whiskey was at least twelve years
old.
The trio of workmen took the
liquor and smashed the bottles on the
walk, wasting the precious fluid
that would been worth in the neigh
borhood of twenty dollars at the
present bootleg quotations.
Who the liquor belonged to is a
mystery but whoever it was he is
certainly to be pitied that he over
'ooked this cache of old time Joy
producers when he was working on
the belfry.

Store of Liquor
is Poured Into
Sewer Today
Sheriff E. P. Stewart Has Annual
"Dumping Day" for Illicit Liquor
With Jury as Onlookers.
From Thursday's Daily
This morning the assortment of
illicit liquor that has been accumu
lated in the vault of the county at
torney in the past several months
was sent on its way to the great
Missouri river to cheer up the fish,
when Sheriff E. P. Stewart had the
various bottles and containers dump
ed into the sewer at the corner of
4th and Main street. The members
of the petit jury panel were onlook
ers at the scene of the making of
the wet offering and many had the
first opportunity of whiffing the
odors of the most popular of the
Volstead beverages.
There has been considerable
amount of the various kinds of bev
erages seized in the last few months
that have accumulated and which;
the county attorney and sheriff
wished to have disposed of public
ally as the law provides for and ac
cordingly as this was a dark
and gloomy day and the members of
the jury panel about ready to go on
to their homes it was decided that
they should enjoy the occasion.
The crashing ofthe bottles and
the aroma that was whiffed to and
from on the breeze attracted a grent
deal of attention and a number
gathered at the corner to watch the
sacrifice, some to rejoice that the
rum demon was being given an
other knockout blow and others to
mourn the destruction of the strong
drink.
SEEKING SAFE BLOWER
If there is anyone in the com
munity who is an expert yegg and
can open the old time safes with
speed and dispatch, he will receive
a welcome at the Walling abstract
office that will make his heart glad.
Many years ago, Thomas Walling,
Sr., secured this safe which he used;
for the care of the valuable docu-,
ments that are handled every day in ;
the preparation of abstracts and as;
this was the only use made of the
safe, Mr. Walling never made a!
practice of throwing the combination
when he closed the door at night,
and in time the card containing the
mystic numbers that would cause the
safe to open was lost. No longer be
ing familiar with them, the owner
continued to leave the safe unlocked,
as it served its purpose as a protec
tion against fire Just as well this.
way as if locked.
Robert Walling, manager of tue
business since the death of his fath
er, never learned the combination,
and thereby hangs the tale.
A few days ago there was neces
sity to secure some valuable papers
from the safe and accordingly the
documents were hurriedly withdrawn
and the door closed, but in so doing.
the party thoughtlessly turned the
combination to the safe, locking it.
When Mr. Walling tried to open
the safe the next morning the dis
covery was made that the combina
tion had been used in closing the
teafe and that as far as all practical
use was concerned the safe might as
well have been in the South Sea
islands. The services of locksmiths
were hurriedly called for. but with
out result as the safe remained firm
ly closed and the last reports in
dicate the owner will have to secure
the services of some of Billy Fen
ton's star boarders to try and work
the combination or have the door cut
away with a welding torch in order
to get into It.

Do Your Gift
Buying Early,
is the Slogan
Stocks of Local Stores are Now in
Readiness for the Inspection of
Prospective Buyers.
The postoffice department is bus
ily engaged now in sending out to
the nation the message, "Do Your
Christmas Shopping Early" and their
advice is appropriate and to the
point to insure the prompt handling
of the vast Christmas mail and this
attitude is also reflected in the warn
ing of the express companies to get
the packages that are going to dis
tant points in early in order to guar
antee their arrival in time for the
Christmas season.
To assist the shopper in the se
lection of gifts that will be appro
priate to the glad yuletide season
the business houses of Plattsmouth
are now getting on their shelves and
on display the fine arrays of articles
that are both useful and ornamental
for the Christmas season and which
affords the shopper a real opportunity
to get around and select their gifts
while the lines are new and not
picked over and in ample time to
have the gifts packed and sent to
distant points to insure their deliv
ery before the Christmas day.
The beauty of shopping earl- is
that it gives the purchaser ample
time in which to make their selec
tion of gifts instead of having to
hurry through the last few days with
the result that they make their pur
chases hurriedly and are often dis-;
appointed with the results, when if
they had taken more time they
would have secured just what they
desired and avoided the strain of
the last minute shopping.
Early shopping makes it easier
for the clerks In the stores to han
dle the trade and to give the shop
per the fullest benefit of their ex
perience and assistance in the selec
tion of the gifts that may be desired.
When the last days of the shopping
season are at hand, the purchasers
who have been out early and picked
their gifts can rest, . well pleased
with the result of their foresight and
leave the last minute shopping to
the tired and rushed public that has
delayed shopping until the very last
minute.

Funeral Service
of Mrs- Parker
This Afternoon
Held This Afternoon at the Home on
Wintersteen Hill and Burial
at Oak Hill Cemetery.
From Thursday's Daily
The funeral services of the late
Mrs. Benjamin Parker were held to
day from the home on Wintersteen
hill and attended by a large num
ber of the friends to share with the
family the sense of loss that her
passing has brought.
The services were conducted by
Rev. Walter R. Robb of the First
Christian church who was assisted
by Evangelist Nelson Gardner.

the Arms of Jesus" and "Shall We
Meet Berond the River" were given
bv Mrs. George Nelson and Mrs
Hal Garnett. Mrs. O. C. Hudson
assisting at the piano. The inter
ment was at Oak Hill cemetery.
Minnie Elizabeth Berger was born
in Brownville, Nebraska, February
11, 186S. and passed into the great
beyond the evening of December 1st,
1925. at Plattsmouth. When the de
ceased was fourteen years of age
she removed from Brow:: vi Ho to Ca!-
vert, which is now known as Auourn
Nebraska. While she was a resident
of Auburn, having grown to young
womanhood, she was united in mar
riasre with Mr. Benjamin Parker on
December . 1SS6.
Here she and her husband took up
their home for a number of years.
Later thev made their home in a
number of places, among them St.
Joseph, Missouri: Galveston. Texas;
Beatrice, Fairbury and Plattsmouth,
Nebraska. In the city of Fairbury,
this state, they resided for a period
of fourteen years from which city
thev came August 27th. 1923. to
make their home in Plattsmouth.
To the deceased and her husband
were horn eignt cniiarcn. six oi
whom were girls and two boys. All
of these with the exception of Ethel
Lee Parker survive the mother and
with the husband remain to mourn
th loss of this good woman. The
daughter. EtLel -Leg. Tarker... was
drowned during the flood in Galves
ton. Texas, in 1900. at the age of
ten years.
Besides the husband. Benjamin
Parker, the living children are Mrs.
Elmer Elliott. Mrs. Bert Donaldson,
Mrs. Earl Redd, Mrs. Clare l pp. Miss
Pauline and Mr. Harry Parker, .all
of Plattsmouth and Mr. cnauncey
Parker, of Omaha. There is also a
brother-in-law, Mr. Will Sanders, of
Del Rapids. South Dakota, the wives
and husbands of the Parker child
ren, nine grandchildren, one nephew
and many cousins who today are
most sadly missing the departed and
n their great sorrow they are join
ed bv a host of friends whose hearts
ikewise are deeply grieved.
When a child of about eight years
of age. the deceased made profession
of her faith in Christ and united
with the Methodist Episcopal church
of Brownville, Nebraska, but upon
moving to Fairbury. this state, her
membership was transferred to the
Methodist church of that city, where
she remained a member until death.
Mrs. Benjamin Tarker will long be
remembered by those of her family
and friends because of her kind and
sympathetic nature. To her child
ren, though they had grown to man
hood and womanhood, she still re
mained solicitous for their welfare,
and to their sorrows and troubles
she was keenly sensitive; to her hus
band she was faithful to her mar
riage vows, being an affectionate,
helpful wife.
For a number of years she has been
seriously afflicted with ill health and
excessive weight which prohibited
her from many enjoyments common
to others. Being confined almost con
tiniously to her chair for years, she
found opportunity of expressing sun
shine to others by being cheerful
and kind. She loved the old hymns
of the church and was frequently
singing them while rocking in her
chair.
A really good woman has gone the
way of all the earth, but the con
tribution from her life will not fail
in its power to bless until the day of
judgment shall come. If her child
ren continue to walk in the pathway
of her teaching, in their day of har
vest they will rise up and call her
blessed.

Ci City Schools to Direct the
Work of Chorus.
This week has seen the organiza
tion here of the community chorus,
an organization composed of the
vocalists of the city that has as its
first objective the securing of a suffi
cient group of singers that they can
carry en the community Christmas
music and furnish an open air pro
gram, a very cieiigntiui ieaiure oi
the holiday season in this city.
Mr. Leroy S. Fager, supervisor of
music of the city schools, has had
charge of the work of organizing the
chorus and at the first meeting held
on Wednesday evening at the high
school auditorium there was some
very pleasing results secured from
the group of some thirty voices that
assures the chorus being a success
and it is hoped that there will be
from fifty to sixty persons enrolled
in the chorus by the time that active
practice will be started for the spec
ial numbers for the holidays.
It is planned "to have this chorus
ol high" class voices join in the hold
ing of a big community sing on the
streets preceding the Christmas day.
and which will make a feature of
the holiday season that will be a real
observance of the holiday season.
In line with the organization of
the community chorus it is also be
ing arranged to have displa's of
small trees along the curb line, the
various merchants securing the trees
and having them placed in the stands
used for flag holders and which will
give a real yuletide appearance to
the main street of the city and a
typical Christmas atmosphere to the
city that will be a real delight to
the residents here as well as to the
visitors in the city.
Both the plans for the chorus work
and the decorating of the streets are
live propositions and should have
the encouragement and support of
the general public in making both
of these a real success in every way.
Those who are planning to have
Christmas cards printed to send to
their friends should make their
orders at once bo that the work can
be handled in ample time.
