WEEKLY JOURNAL, THURSDAY, Al'lUL. 25, 1S95. IN AND AKOL'NI) TUE TOWN. Isaac ViIe3 is arranging to put in a forty-acre orchard. Fred Murphy's feed barn is doing a right pood business. Some five hundred Iowa farmers have already accepted passes over the free ferry. A party is making up in town to visit the Mills county orchards while they are in bloom. The clerk of the weather has quite evidently left the equatorial door open today, and it is warm enough for June. At wood & Co., the Cedar Creek quarry and sand men, are employing about thirty-five men in their quarries now. Patrick Shields, the 13. & M. black smith, has been laying off because of illness something very unusual for him. J. G. Richey departed last Tuesday for Idaho to look after his busi ness interests in that section. lie will moat likely be absent for two or three months. It is hinted that there was some thing significant in the visit of Henry Gering and JL B. Windham to Iowa the other day. The young men who go fishing over Sunday eeem to have the luck to be struck by a high wind every time, so that they can't fish. Mrs. G. F. S. Burton and children departed for Plattsmouth Wednesday morning, whither she goes to take care of her invalid brother for a c( ile of months. Junction Recorder. Engineer Wm. Sayles has purchased forty acres of the Kennedy fairr. down near Rock Bluffs. His brotlur. Tom, will farm the land this sumn.er. and will plant it mostly in pot at D. F. Foster, Agent Latham's oblig ing assistant at the B. & M. depot, is home from a week's trip to Colorado, whither he journeyed to look after a homestead in the vicinity of Akron. Prof. F. C. McClelland, superintend ent of the local public schools, will de part this evening for Montana, to be absent for a werk or more it being his first vacation during five years of service. Geo. T. Beck is home from a hurried trip to Chicago, and was accompanied hither by Julius Lieede of Minneapolis, who will assist Mr. Beck in his labors on his coal machine at the B. & M. shops, and which, by the way, is vir tually completed. Silas Canton, a very highly res pected farmer living in Adams county, died Sunday very suddenly in bis car riage while returning from church of heart disease. Mr. Canton was one of the early settlers of Adaucs county, and a veteran of the late war. Plattsmouth is a poor paloon town, there beiu only eight applications for licenses this spring- .Nebraska City, which is virtual tbe same in size as this city, uaTe eighteen applica tions, an' Louisville, only one-eighth as lae as Plattsmouth, has five ap pjo'cations. C. D .Dundas, the well known bridge man was taken to the hospital yester day Buffering from a severe stroke of paralysis. Lincoln News. Mr.Dundas is a partner to A B. Todd, of this city in the bridge building business, and is well known in bridge building circles all over the state. C. H. Parmele has rented out the nenry Merton place, five miles west of town (which he bought at $40 an acre at the administrators' sale), for $4 an acre, csjb in hand. One of tbe Meis inger brothers will farm the place. In view of the short crop last year, this is looked upon as a very high rental. Will Yivlan and John Leucbtw.is have leased the Woodson natatorium on Sixth street and will be ready for business on Saturday of this week. BoyB will Hwim and if parents will en courage the youngsters to patronize the natatorium instead of the Mis souri river, there will be more boys and less funerals. The German Evangelical Lutheran society in this city have given a call to Rev. F. H. Freund, of Nebraska City, to preach for them, and the gentleman has accepted the same. Until other arrangements are made the society will occupy Waterman hall for services on Sundays morning and evening and for Sunday school JSabbath morn ings. Rev. Freund is unmarried, and will stop for the present at tbe Riley hotel. The San Francisco Examiner of the 18th, contains an account of the pre liminary examination of a man named Armstrong at Riverside for the murder of two men at San Jacinto, and that it j was supposed that Ilarry McCourt. son of Maj. F. McCourt of this city, was a eole witness of the affray, whereat the boy was fearful of injury at the hands of the murderer's friends, but when the trial came off a woman who lived a block away testified that she had also been an eye-witness of the double murder, thus gretly relieving the mind of the young man. The Major is also congatulating himself on the turn that the matter has taken. Constitutional Amendments. The late legislature decided to sub mit a dozen amendments to the consti tution. These amendments will be voted on by the people at the general election of 1890. The amendments cover many important subjects and if alopted will materially strengthen tbe organic law of the state which has largely outgrown oince it was framed twenty-two years ago. They are: Investment of the permanent school fund. This amendment was sub mitted in 1890, but failed to get the necessary votes for adoption. Authorizing the state legislature to fix salaries of state officers. Authorizing tbe merging of county and metropolitan city governments. Providing that two-thirds of a jury may render verdicts in civil cases. Authorizing the creation of an appel late court. . Increasing the number of supreme court judges from three to five. Providing for an elective railway company of three members. Granting legislative power to fix the salaries of judges In district and su preme courts. Authorizing the legislature to abol ish any office it may create. Authorizing the legislature to in crease one each four years the number of judges of tbe district and supreme courts. Authorizing the use of voting ma chines at elections. Empowering cities or counties to is sue bonds to aid internal improve ments. A special bill provides that these amendments shall be printed on a sep arate ballot. They will be voted on at a time when there will be a county, state and presidential campaign in pro gress, which is unfortunate, for they will thus fall to receive the considera tion which their importance warrants.

S. government ha begun the work of protecting the east bank of tte Missouri river opposite Omaha and will expend the sum of i75,00O cm the job. Plattsmouth people have a' very distinct recollection of toO.000 being appropriated several years ago for the purpose of making a permanent chan nel in front of this city; but tb river commission h t up" or used it at 0,u.iua. The new work is to be done solely for the benefit of the company that owns tbe new bridge at last Omaha, and smacks very strongly of using public funds for private ends. Dlasolutlou Mo lie.

E. A. Oliver, Fred Ramoe. March 1, 1S95. A Prominent Wholesale Urocer of Omaha Neb., Write: To the afflicted: Several years ago I discovered a slight falling and bleeding of the lower bowel which increased and became very distressing. I made inquiry as to the nature of the disease and learned that I bad a somewhat aggravated case of Hemorrhoids or Piles. Was told of several remedies and used them as di rected, obtaining thereby some tem porary relief. Not being satisfied with such slight relief I cast about for a per manent cure; when a friend directed tbe use of the famous Magnet Pile Killer. I used it. Immediate relief from pain followed, and soon a com plete cure was affected. Yery respectfully, Oscar Allen. For sale by Gering & Co. Ebtkay Notice.
