McCook Won at Trenton
McCook won 2 to 1 at Trenton Inst
Friday evening About twenty five pu
pila and citiz3ns went up to Trenton in
the morning and this number was aug
mented in the early evening by many
more in a special coach
Miss Adaline Koller Miss Helen
Schwab and Ray Scott represented Mc
Cook
The question was Resolved That
labor unions are as a whole beneficial
McCook was on the negative side
The judges were County Supt L W
Colebank of Stockvill Rev Purdy of
Oulberttion and Principal P M Spease
of Danbury
It is to the special credit of the Mc
Cook debaters that they are the only
ones who have won on the negative side
of this question
Their work is declared very effective
and worthy the compliments extended
by those who have had tie pleasure and
opportunity of hearing them
For the people of Trenton there is due
grateful appreciation of their fine hospi
tality and courteous treatment
Fun and Amusement
Last evening a good house showed
their taste and appreciation by applaud
ing repeatedly to the coon meledies
quartettes and choruses that were given
by the Culligan Hockwalds minstrels
in the opera house On account of the
washout the company could not got out
of town and so were compelled to pro
long their engagement here by playing
again this evening before another ap
preciative audience in spite of the in
clement weather Their voices and
their makeup were peculiar to their
nativity and especially so was the voice
of the tenor clear soft and unusually
melodious in his Silver threads among
the gold The altos and leading
voices exhibited rare strength and as a
musical treat there still remain fresh to
the mind such songs as Take you
time Some time some day Im
not the man I wish I had a girl
Way down in my heart I got a feelin
fo you I will be there and others

Passed to His Reward
In the death last Sunday afternoon
about threo oclock of Mr I F Clapp
there passed to his reward a Christian
gentleman of the truest typo a grand
old man to know whom was an inspira
tion His lifo rang true Sinco early
boyhood ho has been an earnest and
and efficient worker in the Congrega
tional church
Sinco his son H C Clapp has resided
here the father and his most estimable
wife have made frequent visits in Mc
Cook and all who mot them were warm
and admiring friends Their last visit
covered over a years time in the hope
that Nebraska sunshine might stay his
failing health But such was not to be
the happy result For some weeks it
has been too evident that the end could
not much longer be averted
Brief service was conducted Sunday
evening about ten oclock at the sons
home from which the remains were af
terwards convoyed to train 6 for ship
ment to the old homo in Allegan Mich
for burial H C Clapp accompanied
his mother with the remains The pall
bearers were Messrs R D Rodgers W
W McMillen F M Kimmell Emerson
Hanson Albert McMillen T B Camp
bell
The home funeral was conducted in
the Allegan Congregational church on
Wednesday afternoon at two oclock
The sorrow ones all have tenderest
sympathy of many McCook hearts
I F Clapp was born near Allegan
Michigan in 1838 In 1862 was mar
ried to Delora Sherwood He lived in
Allegan the 48 years of their married
life and for 40 years was a businessman
of that city Departed is survived by
his wife and two sons Dr F C Clapp
of Grand Rapids Michigan and H C
Clapp of our city
Rather a Fizzle
The wrestling event advertised for
Monday evening did not draw much of
a crowd and financially was somewhat
of a fizzle Dr Roller the principal at
traction of the evening had a severe
cold and hence did not appear on the
program For sufficient reasons not
mentioned the preliminaries were not
fast enough to catch up to the program
and there were none
However Asbell of Kansas City made
three attempts to throw Dr Ducray of
the Nebraska university and George
Gion He downed the doctor in thirty
minutes and George Gion in twenty
minuter but failed on the third bout
which was with the doctor hence lost
the match This was doubtless a good
exhibition of the game but withal the
affair was not satisfactory to the audi
ence which evidently expected more
and perhaps something different

Alter the Bucket Shops
The crusade against the bucket shops
of Nebraska has been started by court
proceedings at Lincoln
A week ago tho Bee announced tho
fact that detectives were in the field se
curing evidence for the Chicago Board
of Trade in the campaign whish baB
now been started against the bucket
shops
The Chicago Board of Trade spends
large sums of money to protect its quo
tations for the benefit of its customers
and the charge is now made that the
Nebraska bucket shops are securing
these quotations in some illegal fashion
Omaha Bee k
No additional developments wore not
ed today in tho injunction auit filed on
Friday by the Chicago board of trade
against the Herbert E Gooch Company
of Lincoln to prevent the latter from
receiving or using quotations on grain
prices Lawyers for the Gooch bouse
are engaged in looking over the petition
and affidavits preseented by the other
side Meanwhile the regular wire re
ports were being received and displayed
on blackboards at the two Gooch offi
ces and in turn sent out to tho compa
nys branches in other cities and towns
Lincoln Journal
All of which looks to The Trikune
like the big gamblers are feeling the
competition of the little gamblers and
want to put the aggressive small fry out
of business The American people
could get along nicely I thank you
without both of these non producers
