Brubaker of this City Secure
Soennichsen Store There.
From Wednesday's Daily
The purchase has just been made
by Ed S. Tutt of Murray and G. E.
Brubaker of this city of the Murra;.
store of the H. M. Soennichsen, Co.,
which the new firm of Tutt & Bru
baker are taking over the business
at once.
This store has. been one of the
main business institutions of Mur
ray for a great many years, being
first owned by L. D. Hiatt and Ed
S. Tutt and later, was taken over by
the H. M. Soennichsen Co., of this
city when the owners of the store
became interested inthe Soennichsen
company. Mr. . Hiatt ' later came to
Plattsmouth at the main store of the
company and Mr. Tutt located in the
south for a time, the store at Mur
ray being under the management of
P. F. Rhin. The new change will
bring Mr. Tutt back to the business
life of the Murray community where
he will receive a cordial welcome.
Mr. Brubaker has been here with
the H. M. Soennichsen interests for
several years and has been engaged
in the grocery store of that company
in this city. He is a young man that
has spent his lifetime here in this
city and is one in whom all who
know him have the deepest confi
dence and the highest respect.
Mr. Tutt is so well known in this
portion of Cass county that he needs
no introduction and especially in
Murray where he and his wife have
been among the most highly es
teemed residents of that city.
With the ability of the members
of the new firm there should be no
doubt of their success in the store
that they are taking over and the
community of Murray is fortunate in
having two such splendid business
men become a part of their com
munity life.
RAIN STOPS BALL GAME
From Monday's Dally
The generous rainfall early yes
terday morning put the dampner on
the hopes of the baseball fans that
they might witness the Plattsmouth
Gilmore game on the local lot and
the exhibition of the national pastime
that was scheduled for this city was
necessarily deferred until a later date
and means that Gilmore and Platts
mouth will have to clash in a double
header in the visit of the Sarpy
team here.
The postponement of the game
was a disappointment to the local
ball team that had hoped to make
their hold on the league leadership
more secure but who will have to
wait until a later date to play the
Gilmores here.
The game at Papillion was play
ed late in the afternoon between the
Papillion and Bellevue team and was

a live wire man that can promote
the best interests of the city and
place the advantages of Plattsmouth
as a place of business and a city

it should be done.
