Earle Towle, police Judge, will
leave Weeping Water Monday night
for Chicago to aid his son, Harold,
18, who was taken into custody by
police there, charged with stealing
an automobile, a special to the Oma
ha Bee states.
The father of the youth was non
pulssed when informed of the youth's
arrest, and could not ascribe any
motive for the alleged car theft, or
for his son's leaving home two weeks
ago.
"I didn't know of any love affair
he had," the father said, when ques
tioned about the statement Harold is
said to have made in Chicago that
he left home because his parents ob
jected to his marrying a girl of
Weeping Water.
Gone With Girls.
"He has gone with girls here, and
at time with girls in neighboring
towns, but he wasn't the kind that's
always going with the girls," he con
tinued. The father expressed as his opin
ion that the youth, who is six feet
and six inches in height, had gone
! from his home expecting to make a
quick fortune, or merely for the ex
citement of roving for a time.
"I think the boys here kind of
egged him on," he said.
The fact that his father is police
judge, an uncle. Prank Towle, chief
of the night police in Lincoln, and
i the sheriff of Cass county an "old
'friend of the family, has given him
I prestige in his home community
among his associates. This fact and
(his size are thought to be two fac
tors that led to his belief that he
could make his way out in the world
easily.

This morning there were some
eighteen passengers from the west and
northern portion of the county that
arrived in this city on No. 4 over
the Burlington and they relate a com
plaint of the conditions that prevail
at the station at Oreapolis. The trav
elers came down as far as Oreapolis
on the Schuyler and had to wait at
Oreapolis for No. 4 in order to get on
into Plattsmouth and this took some
little time and they found the wait
ing room in the little station with
out fire and very cold and disagree
able. The condition was not relished
in the least by the travelers and they
made the fact known when they were
able to reach thia city and get thaw

ENJOY FINE MEETING
From Monday's Daily
Mrs. Harry Tincher, whose mar
riage occurred a few weeks ago was
given a very delightful miscellan
eous shower at the home of her par
ents. Mr. and Mrs. L. B. McKinny,
on Friday evening. The happy 'vent
was arranged by Mrs. Elmer iium
niell and Mrs. Lester Meisinger and
was attended by a very large number
of the friends of the bride and groom.
The time was spent in music and
bride was presented with the array of
handsome gifts that will serve to re
mind the guest of honor of the many
friends. At a suitable hour dainty re
freshments were served that added to
the enjoyment of the occasion.
The following ladies were in at
tendance at the happy event, Mes

Beatrice Herring.
Early Sunday morning the life-
less body of Anclrew Hindricksen,
aged seventy years was found hang
ing from a tree in the yard at his
farm home four miles north of Eagle, f
The tragedy has greatly stirred
Eagle and vicinity where Mr. Hind
ricksen and his family have resided '
for a great many years and the
shock has proven very trying to the
members of the family circle. j
It is supposed that the suicide
was due to dispondency on the part i
of the aged man as he has been in
apparent good health and had little
reason as far as could be learned
for the rash act. i
The lifeless body was discovered
at an early hour by Carl Johnson,
a nephew, living across the road
from the farm and who was horri
fied at looking across the way and
seeing the form of the uncle hang
ing from the tree. He had used a
large box to help him get up into
the tree and from where he had
taken the plunge into eternity.
It is stated that it is the second
suicide in the family as a son shot
himself during the flu epidemic of
191S from the effects of his sick
ness and ill health.
The deceased is survived by a wife
and five children

Hog Lot Sanitation.
Meetings were held at the home of
Albert Pool, Wabash. T. W. Hoffman
& Sons, Alvo, Henry Thiele, Nehawka,
and the Jelfery and Heil school
houses. Mr. Posson of the animal hus
bandry extension department was
with us for these meetings and he
stressed hog lot sanitation. The main
points are: clean the hog houses with
boiling lye water, wash the brood
sows udder with luke warm soapy
water and brush all the dirt off her
sides and back with a stiff brush.
When the young pigs are about two
weeks old take them to a lot where
hogs have not been on for at least
on year and better if no hogs have
been there for two years. If you
have no old hog houses build a few
individual ones and take your sows
to clean ground to let them farrow
and raise the pigs there until they
are four months old.
If you are interested in hog house
plans write or call the farm bureau
office. We would be glad to help you.
