Former Well Known Man Here Pleads
Guilty to Plot for Extortion
at Marshalltown, Iowa.
From Saturday's Dally
E. J. McGlone, magazine solicitor,
who operated in thi3 territory for
some time and who was married here
to Miss Violet Grassman of Louis
ville, was given a five year term in
the Iowa penitentiary yesterday at
the trial of his case at Marshalltown.
McGlone had been in Omaha where
his wife was ill at the hospital there
and he had left there, abandoning
the wife and who has since been
taken to her former home at Louis
ville, where she is being cared for.
The magazine solicitor with two
companions were charged with a
plot to extort money from the wife
of a prominent resident of Marshall
town, the lady notifying her husband
of the threats of the parties and the
result was that they were trapped
and caught with the check that had
been given as a bait by the victims
of the blackmail plot.
Morton Davis, youngest member of
the trio was given a sentence in the
state reformatory, while J. O. Young
of Chicago drew a prison terra with

Band Goes on
a Booster Trip
Last Evening
Dozen Auto Loads Visit Louisville
and Weeping Water Adver
tising the Carnival.
From Friday! Dally-
Some fifty Plattsmouth citizens, In
cluding members of the band and the
American Legion, visited Louisville
and Weeping Water last night on a
booster trip, advertising the Isler
Carnival Shows which will exhibit
here next week under auspices of the
American Legion.
The cars got away to a good start
at around 7 o'clock and were In the
neighboring cement city a half hour
later. A large crowd gathered on
the street to listen to the selections
by the band, while Legion members
put out advertising matter in the
windows of the various business
houses of the town and later the an
nouncement was made of the com
ing of the carnival next week.
From Louisville the cars made the
run to Weeping Water, arriving there
a little in advance of the time- for
the weekly band concert on Main
street, and while the large crowd
was waiting for the splendid program
of the Weeping Water band to begin.
the Plattsmouth musicians gathered
about the band stand and played a
number of snappy selections that won
the applause of the crowd. The car
nival announcement was repeated and
advertising matter placed in the
stores, all of which are open on
Thursday nights.
Several of the Plattsmouth band
men were invited to sit in with the
Weeping Water band during the con
cert that lasted more than an hour.
while other members of the party vis
ited with the Weeping Water folks

hall, where a large crowd of merry
makers was gathered to trip the light

dance. Although the weather look
ed threatening, the clouds disappear
ed and the stars gave assurance of
good roads home, bo many stayed un
til a late hour. . . -
Retiring they spent quiet and hap
py sunset years at Elmwood, where
this honored couple did all within
their power to uphold and support
the cause. Jul 21, 1921, the angel
of death, claimed Rev. Backemeyer.
Bearing up bravely, Mrs. Backemeyer
now preferably and with reverence
called Mother Backemeer, continued
in her noble work alone and yet not
alone, God was very precious indeed
to her in her declining years. The
beautiful summer months were
usually spent at Elmwood, and the
harsher winter months with her
children at Vesta and Waco; and at
Gary, Indiana. She had shortly re
turned from one of her extended
visits and was enjoying spring time
when suddenly stricken with a mal
ignant form of pneumonia. She pass
ed away on May 3l3t, quietly, peace
fully and painlessly. She had many
relatives, but to begin to enumerate
her many appreciative friends is im
possible for lack of space and time.
There remains six children, one of
whom could not reach Elmwood for
these last rites of love and memory.
The children are Chris, of Waco,
Neb.. Marie, of Denver, Colo.; Emilie
of Vesta, Neb.;1 Ernest of Seattle,
unable to be present, Fred of Gary,
Ind.; and Ed. of Miami, Florida.
Her only brother, William Seiker, al
so remains to mourn her loss, he
having for many years resided in i
Elmwood. j
Her remains were tenderly born
to her last resting place Sunday af
ternoon, June 3. A very large num
ber of relatives and friends attend
ed the funeral exercises. Rev. E. F.
Haist of Kearney, preached the ser
mon, assisted by Rev. Chas. Lewien,
local pastor. Rev. F. L. Wiegert
read the scripture. Rev. H. Pieper
led In prayer, Rev. Victor West of
the M. E. church in the closing
prayer. Rev. N. Norenberg from the
Calahan congregation and many of
his members were also present. The
quartette composed" of Mrs. Harry
Grene, Mr. Joe Kunz, Mr. Walter
Lenz and Henry Bornemeier render
ed some very fine selections. The
floral display was very beautiful and
showed the great honor and respect
for the deceased. Her funeral text
was taken from the words of Saint
Paul In his first letter to the Cor
inthians, the tenth chapter and the
twenty-third verse, "I have received
it of the Lord, that I have committed
unto you." In spite of the falling
rain many accompanied the mortal
remains to the place of burial, where
Rev. Haist and Rev. Lewien held a
brief service.
She is gone and quietly sleeps,
her windowless palace, ut her
works do follow her.
Peace be unto her ashes.
