a time to witness and enioy the
fruits of victory, waiting' their turn
to answer the 'final roll call of the
'Supreme Commander and continue
their match to join the patriotic
hosts beyond the river; in recogni
tion of these patriotic sacrifices,
the cherished and beautiful custom
has become, the pleasant, duty of
alltr.ue Americans to observe and
perpetuate the day set apart to do
honor to our veterans and to the
memory of their comrades .now at
rest. On Monday, the 30th day of
May, 1898, let all thepeople of this
city cease their usual avocations,
congregate with out loyal and noble
veterans in their place of assem
blage and join in prayer "and heart
felt thanks to Almigtfcy God for
His manifold blessingsto us as a
peoplejand for our nation s welfare.
Let all lovingly asslsbur veterans
and others.-he'uave relatives and
friends in that grand galaxy of
loyal patriots, in scattering flowers
over the graves of their com-
rades and" departed loved ones.
While ens-acred in this duty of
respect and affection at the shrine
of these departed heroes, we are
forcibly reminded that our country,
ever the vanguard of civilization
and christian progress, is again
battling for human rights and free
dom of the poor Cuban from Spain's
cruel yoke of murder, starvation
and oppression. But a short time
ago our noble soldier boys, Com
pany E, following the example of
patriot veteran fathers, responded
to their country's calL and are now
hurrying to the front to do tattle
in this righteous cause. Let us all
unite in earnest supplication for
their safe and speedy return. All
honor to our soldier boys, your
cause is just; victory will be yours
for the God of battles is with you.

TheMigk Scioel Aluuu aitfmtt.
Tuesday eveniner the members
of the; jHigh School Alumni Asso
ciation and their quests. - the class
ot "98, the high school teachers, and
the board of education, assembled
in the parlor of the Pacific hotel;
Shortly after nine o'clock they pro"?
ceeded to the dining room where
covers had been laid for seventy;
two people. The tables were at;
ranged in the shape of a V and
were decorated with bunches of
lilacs. The alumni were seated by
classes.
As soon as every one was ,as-
stcrned a place Prof Orr offered
the blessing. The -gathering then
seated themselves and the, presi-
dnt made a very short address of
welcome. Ross Stebbins re
sponded, on behalf of the class ot
98. After thanking- the alumni
for the welcome extended -to the
class he said that three character
istics of the class of '98 were intelli
gence, beauty, and ability at the
table. He then proceeded to prove
his statement in an able manner.
After the response the president
announced that the next thiug on
the program was a feast for the
inner man and for an hour the as
sembly did justice to the good'
things provided, During- that
time the mandolin club provided
considerable melody.
After that portion of the pro
gram was disposed of the toast
master for the evening, Supt.
Wm Ebright was introduced. Ini a
very neat speech he responded and
then gave the first toast "Plus or
minus" to which Miss Abbie Day
of '96 responded. Miss Day em
phasized the qualities, character,
perseverance, pluck, and virtue,,
that were necessary to make
people plus instead of minus quan
tities in this world. Miss Day's
response was excellent. At its
close Prot. Ebright said that it
was very certain that the present
gathering would be plus instead bl It
minus because they had certainly
shown pluck and perseverance in
making way with the eatables.
Irf offering the next toast "Our
class of '9S.;Prof. Ebright said that
Ralph Ray had bribed the com
mittee into letttng him respond to
it in order that he might get even
with the class for some of the
mean things they had done to him
sudms trying' to bleaclrhis hair
and tying him up. However, in
Mr. Ray's response he restrained
himself and told very few mean
things of the class but instead
dwelt on their virtues which in his
estimation seemed to be as the
sands of the sea, impossible to
number. Judging from Mr. Ray's
remarks the class of '98 lias never
been excelled in any particular and
it is doubtful if we will ever see
their like again. Mr. Ray's re
marks were decidedly clever.
The next toast Lost, but not
forgotten" was responded to in a
very happy been by Miss Ueleye
Hartman who related several anec
dotes ot school days that were lost
Tjut not entirely forgotten. These
were highly appreciated by the
gathering. Miss Hartman then
turned her attention to the class of
'98 and told them that their leave of
school life had been too bright and
that the prophecies made ot them
were too brilliant and that in fu
ture years they would probably be
lost and also forgotten.
"Togetherness" was responded
to by Miss Fanny VonGoetz of the
class ot. '93. Miss VonGoetz said
that at first she was at a loss to
know what the word meant but
finally decided that it meant unity.
She then spoke of the spirit of
unity that was fostered by such
gatherings as that which the
alumni were enjoying. They are
the bright spots in our work-a-day
lives. The fact that the alumni
are all graduates of the same
North Platte High School is a
strong bond which unites them all.
Miss VonGoetz also said that in
years to come when some members
of the Alumni had gained great
renown the other members would
recall the old alumni banquets
with great pleasure. Miss Von
Goetz response was very good.
The last toast "A health to our
patriots" was responded to by H.
S. Ridgley of '96 in an excellent
speech. Mr. Ridgley spoke of the
causes that led up to the Cuban
war and then laid particular stress
on the fact that the position of
this country in the present war
was unique because its sole object
was the good of humanity, not ac
quisition of territory. Mr. Ridg
ley then reminded the class of '98
that they would be patriots from
now on because they would have
to fight and tbey would now be
unaided by teachers and others.
After the response to each of the
diterent; toasts? the class, to which

pany charges conspiracy pocween
