Louisville is
Stirred by Sale
of Quarries
Options on the National, Murphy and
Patrick Quarries There Are
Taken Up.
From Saturday's Taily
The residents of Louisville and im
mediate vicinity have been stirred
for the past few weeks with the pros
pects that a large cement factory was
to be erected in that locality which
held the promise of a great deal of
prosperity and growth for the com
munity there and the residents have
anxiously awaited some word as to
what was coming. The activities of
the railroad lines in placing new spur
lines into the quarries has led to the
hopes of the Louisville people raising
to a boiling point.
In speaking of the latest develop
ments in the case the Louisville
Courier has the following:
"Option on the National stone quar
ries on both sides of the river, the
Murphy quarry owned by the Hugh
Murphy Construction Co. and the W.
R. Patrick quarry would have ex
pired June 17 and quite naturally
Louisville waited in breathless silence
for the arrival of the date that means
so much to our future prosperity. The
Courier is glad to be able to inform
its readers that the options on the
above property have been taken up
and the quarries changed hands on
that date. Thursday morning the Na
tional people began an inventory of
the machinery and equipment.
"An inquiry by phone at the Oma
ha office of the Xational Stone com
pany this (Thursday) morning failed
to establish tho name of the pur
chaser, altho it verified the fact that
the property has actually changed
hands."
Think Well of
Fairly Shows
Hamburg (la.) Reporter Has Word
of Praise for the Aggregation
Coming Here July 5th.
In a lengthy article dealing with
their '1th of July celebration to be
held Saturday, the 3rd, the Hamburg
(Iowa) Reporter, owned and publish
ed by Fret! W. Hill, ' the son of a
Methodist minister, and himself a
prominent layman in the Methodist
church, has the following paragraph
about the Xoble C. Fairly Shows and
Riding Devices which are booked for
appearance in Plattsmouth the week
July 5th, which will include the day
of Plattsmouth's celebration:
"The Xoble Fairly carnival
will also be here for that week,
i and you know what that means
too. for this company played our
fair last year, and it is agreed
that they were as fine a lot of
people as ever played our fair.
"Their shows are clean, the peo
ple are above the average, and
Mr. and Mrs. Xoble are all that
their name implies.'
Before signing a contract with the
Fairly shows, which are strangers to
this section of Xebraska. the Legion
c-xperded considerable on telephone
calls to verify the statements made
by the shows' advance man, and it
was only after being thus satisfied
as to their standing that the con
tract was signed.
Their coming will give Plattsmouth
something it has long sought for a
Fourth of July celebration, namely,
plenty of riding elevices to furnish
amusement for young and old. Here
tofore efforts to secure even a merry-go-round
have proven futile.
The Kairly shows have in addition
to a merry-go-round, a ferris wheel,
a glider ( similar hut larger than tho J
Merry-Mixup here last year with the,
Ile-r shows) and a baby ::e., plane.
The celebration in Plattsmouth is
expected to be the greatest of arty in
recent years and as no nearby town
is scheduled to celebrate people will
be here from a wide radius, including
many from the Iowa side, for whom
special ferry service has been prom
ised. MAN ARRESTED EELIEVED
ABLE TO CLEAR MYSTERY
Kansas City, June 16. Carl Keen,
twenty-three, arrested in Leaven
worth, Kas., today on a charge of
robbing a grocery store here, was
brought to Kansas City tonight for
questioning regarding the slaying of
Miss Edith Krumm nearly a year
ago. Police here declared their be
lief that Keen had direct informa
tion that would serve to clear the
mystery that has shrouded the kill
ing. Miss Krumm was shot to death
September 18, 1925, near Overland
Park, Kas. Police are seeking Andy
Loftus, Jr., Miss Krumra's escort, in
the hope he may be able to identify
Keen.
DOG'S NAME AND ADDRESS
The New York Women's League
for Animals is making a plea to have
your name and address engraved or
written on your dog's collar. This
will help greatly in returning the
animal if lost, to the owner. The
nicense number or merely the name
on the collar, tell s only half the
story if seen by those finding stray
dogs. The name and address on the
collar would make the task of re-!
turning a dog to his owner an easy

Huge Demon
stration for the
Ten Cardinals
Crowd of 14,0C0 Join3 in Ovation
Which Lasts for Several Min
utes At the Coliseum.
Chicago, June 18. Resplendent
in the papal white and gold and
bunting of red, white and blue,. Chi
cago's historic coliseum was the scene
tonight of one of the most tumultu
ous demonstrations in its long and
colorful history, when more than
14 thousand citizens joined in the
formal civic reception of the ten
cardinals of the Catholic church here
for the eucharistie ceremonies.
Led by Cardinal Bonzano, the pa
pal legate, the princes of the church,
clad in brilliant robes of scarlet and
black, mounted the platform amid an
ovation which rivaled in volume and
enthusiasm the many which have
helped make presidents in the same
surroundings. The greeting lasted
several minutes, while representa
tives of the city, county, state and na
tional governments greeted the cardi
nals and their retinues of purple clad
bishops and priests. ,
Greetings Made
Addresses of welcome were made
by representatives of the city, county
and state. Secretary of Labor Davis
presented the greetings of President
Coolidge. Samuel Insull extended
welcome in behalf cf the non-Catholic
groups of the municipality. The
meeting was presided over by David
F. Kelly, a knight commander of
the Knights of St. Gregory.
With the cardinals were more than
a hundred bishops and archbishops
from all parts of the world, including
Cardinal Mundelein, the sponsor of
the church festival. Ten members of
the sacred college were in the city
tonight for the ceremonies. Two
more, Cardinals Dougherty of Phila
delphia and O'Connell of Boston, are
scheduled to arrive Saturday.
Governor Small extended hearty
welcome "on the part of the people
of Illinois," and expressed the hope
that the congress might "bring forth
a revival and strengthening of relig
ious interest and a quickening of
spiritual life, not only in our own
nat'on, but in all the Christian na
tions of the world."
Throngs Still Coming
Throngs of clergy and laity con
tinued today to swell the number o'f
congress visitors, special trains from
all direction adding thousands to
the hosts carried to the city on regu
lar schedules.
Before his address. Secretary Da
vis read a letter from President
Coolidge in which the chief execu
tive expressed regret that he could
not accept the invitation of Cardinal
Mundelien to attend the congress.
Cardinal Bonzano, in his response,
said in part:
"It is plain from the words of
ycur distinguished president that
he believes religion and morality, as
well as knowledge, to be essential to
godo government. And it must be
most gratifying to the citizens of
til is great and glorious republic to
recognize in these word:; of your
president the same ideas and senti
ments that inspired the founders o
the naticn when they caused to be
impressed upon the currency of the
country, as an everlasting reminder,
the words, 'In God We Trust.' "
