Nebraska City, Neb. Sixty hours
cf ceaseless dragging had availed
a searching party nothing Tuesday
night as its 150 members still sought
to find the bodies of four local men
drowned in the Missouri river nine
miles north of here Sunday afternoon
when their light hunting boat cap
sized in rough water.
The Missouri, always treacherous,
still guarded well the secret location
of their graves as the searchers work
ed on that evning aad into the third
day since the drownings.
Rewards offered now amount to
$500. Dozens of boats carried the
workers who have sought to recover
their bodies, but experienced river-
men shake their heads and predict
that the bodies will not be recoved
until the muddy waters lift them to
the surface or cast them ashore. They
predict that none of the bodies will
rose to the surface for at least three
weeks.

Miss Staats had each teacher sena
hr ? rnort of the type of work done
h h Htudent teacher and the words
of praise and commendation by these
teachers, of the work uone Dy me
students was very gratifying. Every
. . i i

mentary terms of the abilities and
interest of those students who are
preparing to teach.
iM:ittKnmnth hieh school has been
a Normal Training high school since

OBSERVE UNION SIGNAL DAY
The Plattsmouth' members of the

was very largely attended despite the
unfavorable weather that prevailed
for the afternoon.
The program was arranged by
Mrs. Mattle G. Wiles. Union Signal
Secretary of the society and which
afforded a most delightful array of
offerings along the line of tribute
to this branch of the temperance
work.
One of the features of the after
noon was the playlet. "Proving the
Worth of the Union Signal," and in
which Mrs. J. E. Wiles. Mrs. Robert
Troop, Miss Olive Gass and Mrs. Mat
tie G. Wiles took part, which was
very inspirational to the members
of the society.
During the course of the after
noon Mrs. Robert B. Hayes was heard
in a number of solos, "O Read, the
Union Signal." "Beautiful Hour of
Noontide" and "O Where Is My Boy
Tonight."
Mrs. Charles Troop gave a splen
did address of "The Founder of
Prohibition," In which she reviewed
the life of Neal Dow, of Maine, one
of the earliest public men to urge
the cause of prohibition in the
nation.
At the close of the afternoon Miss

delicious luncheon that was very
much enjoyed by all of the party.

February 5. 1882, he was married
to Emma Keil at Factorville, a town
now obsolete, near Union, Nebraska.
The young couple migrated to Duel
county, Nebraska, and took up a
homestead on which they lived for
fifteen years.
Family ties and eastern Nebraska
had the stronger bonds, so the Nich
olas Opp family returned in 1900
to take over the old Opp Homestead
east of Nehawka, where they lived
until four years ago when farming
was given up for a less strenuous
life in the village of Nehawka.
Eight children were born to them
of whom two died in infancy.
Those living are: Dora Katherine

Gertrude Emma Marlburger, of Cas

. These with the wife, a life long
companion, and a brother, Peter
Opp of Nehawka. and a large group
of grandchildren, together vrith a
host of other relatives and friends
are left to mourn the loss of the
loved one departed.
Failing health and declining years
had been in action for some time.
During the last two years he suffered
quite a bit at times. His eyesight
grew dimmer and finally faded away,
but his mind was clear and active
until the last few days, always en
joying a good chat with folks and
friends calling. The final summons
came Tuesday evening, March 11th
to which he responded without pain
or struggle.
All the children were here for the
