Frank E. Cook
Dies at Tacoma,
Washington
Former Resident of Plattsmouth a
Victim of Chlorine Gas Compli
cations Active Mason.
Word was recived by relatives In
this city today of the death of Frank
E. Cook at Tacoma, Washington. He
la the eon of Mr. and Airs. C. E.
Cook and a son-in-law of Mr. and
Mrs. Lawrence Petersen, both of this
city.
Mr. Cook has been, for a number
of years, master mechanic of the Bt.
Regis Kraft paper mill, one of the
largest paper pulp manufacturing
plants in the country. Before his ap
pointment as master mechanic, Mr.
Cook was engaged by the St. Regis
company as superintendent of con
struction when this mill was erected
in 1928. And more recently, he was
employed in a like capacity when the
new bleaching unit was added to the
plant in 1936.
On August 14, Mr. Cook was en
gaged in the supervision of repair
work on the bleaching tanks when
a large quantity of escaping chlorine
gas rendered him unconscious. For a
time he seemed, to recover from the
shock but a week later he was taken
to the Tacoma hospital where special
ists diagnosed his illness as chlorine
encephalitis or inflammation of the
brain. His condition became steadily
worse until . death came to ease his
suffering.
Mr. Cook was active In Masonic
circles in Washington. He was a
past master of Clover lodge No. 91,
A. F. &. A. M. in Tacoma. And the
present worthy patron of White Clov
er chapter O. E. S.

1892 at Plattsmouth. Nebraska,
where he spent his boyhood and gTew
to manhood. For a number of years
he was employed by the C. B. & Q.
railroad both here and at Havelock.
He was married to Miss Anna
Petersen of this city on April 14,
1913. To this union was born three
children, Dorothy, Fletcher, and

BARTHOLOMEW TROOP DEAD
Now who is Bartholonew Troop,
we hear you ask. And for the in
formation of those who do not know,
we will say he is or was a goose
. a large gander which W. O. Troop
owned and made a pet of. He was
was named Bartholomew in honor of
a friend of Mr. Troop from Hidden
Timber, South Dakota, who seemed
to be about the only person "Bart" ,
would not battle. Mr. Troop had
trained the gar.der to fight and to
perform various tricks such as roll
ing a basket. He was expecting to
take Bartholomew to the county fair,
and the King Korn Karnival, but
something happened to mar the plan. '
While Mr. Troop was stooping over!
io get some grain out of a bin, he,
was attacked from the rear and right
flank by Bartholomew, the attack1
proving far from pleasant. So, in
anger, he turned and seized Mr. gan
der by the neck and threw him over
the fence. A little later he went to
see the gander and found him dead
from a broken neck. So, you won't
be able to see "Bart" at the fair or
the korn karnival.

Frftm Thursday's Daily
The kind of cooperation that has
always made Plattsmouth's King
Korn Karnivals successes was evi
denced again yesterday in-the erec
tion of the platform. It was neces
sary to have It up for last night's
program, so John Alwin pulled his
gang off the Job, brought them down
to Fifth and Main streets and did the
Job in record time. And then he said,
"No charges, that's my' donation."
That's the kind of spirit that is evi-1
denced on all hands by Plattsmouth's
citizens in putting the Korn Kar-,
nival over, without financial help
from city, county, or state.
Mr. and Mrs. Jack Reno are the
proud parents of a fine 9 hi, pound boy
born Wedneeday morning at their
home on Wintersteen hill. Both
mother and baby are getting along
very nicely, and the event has brought
a great deal of happiness to the
home.

START NEW RIVER WORK
The government is starting a new
river project on the Missouri river
near King hill east of Rock Bluffs.
There were two dikes placed there
that were not satisfactory and these
are being reinforced by a rock fill
that will close off the chute of the
river on the Nebraska side of the
Missouri. The rock fill will make it
possible to swing the channel of the
river to the east and against the
Bartlett bend of the stream. The
government Is looking after this
work themselves and rock is being
secured from King hill.
