The game with Crelghton college Thanks
giving day will mark the close of the
career of the Dodge Light Guards' foot
ball team. The last season has proven a
bad one financially for the soldier foot
ball players and the close sees them sev
eral hundred dollars short. The Dodge
Light Guards foot ball ' team, formed as
It was from a nucleus of the famous team
of the old Fifty-first Iowa Volunteer's
team after the return of (he regimont
from the Philippines, has been but once
beaten and that was by Ames Agricul
tural college this fall. Twice before only
In Its career had the team been scored
against and that was by Highland Park
college and the State Normal school dur
ing h fr.,,1. K.f 1. .... .v-
field.
The members of the team consider that
they have earned laurels sufficient and are
now willing to lay down. Nearly every
member of the cloven is engaged in busi
ness and has not the time to devote to
practice that he should. For this reason
and none other, the team after the game
with Crelghton college Thursday decided
to dlsbana and rest on the laurels that
it had won during the four years It had
been in the field ' and open to meet all
comers.
Ilohnient of an Independent telephone syo
tem In this city which would give the busi
ness men of Council Bluffs an opportunity
to connect with the several thousand sub
scribers to independent telephone systems
In southwestern Iowa.
A member of the executive committee of
the Commercial club, In discussing the mat
ter yesterday, stated that In his opinion
the question of Council Bluffs securing con
nexion with the rural telephone lines had
beer, delayed too long and that as far as he
was concerned this connection would be se
cured before the opening of next summer,
wh.-ther the Nebraska Telephone company
liked it or not.
and consequently proceeded to the court
room to await the arrival of the Judge.
Noon came and no Judge appeared In sight,
but they still sat there, hoping that he
would show up before long. The afternoon
waa about half gone when one of the Jan
itors, tho bad noticed the young couple
sitting in the courtroom, asked them what
they were waiting for. They explained and
were somewhat surprised when Informed
that court had been adjourned until next
Monday, when a Judge would probably be
on the bench, but not Inclined to officiate
at marriage ceremonies.
The young couple then Inquired If there
was such an official as a Justice of thrt
pence In the city, and on being given tho
addresses of the two officiating Justices left
the court house. Late In the afternoon they
succeeded In locating the office of Justice
Carson, where the ceremony for which they
had anxiously awaited seeral hours was performed.

Gibbons Gets Twenty Days.
When E. M. Gibbons was brought before
Judge Scott In police court yesterday morn
ing hi wife, who appeared as complaining
In a dead faint when
called upon to testify. She was removed
to the open air, where she soon recovered.
The testimony showed that Gibbons, after
celebrating the occasion In downtown sa
loon, returned home and sought to bring
matter to a climax by driving hi wife
from the house. Mr. Gibbons wa forced
to apend th night at the home of a neigh
bor. Judge Scott sentenced Gibbon to a
fine of $30, in default of which he will spend
twenty day In the city Jail while luxuriat
ing on a fare of bread, with Missouri river
water to wash It down.

that his thirst needed slacking and he re

pany and the hour cped by before he wa

In stead of taking one drink, ai he
originally Intended, Lanen wa Induced by
hlj new formed acquaintances to luiblbe
several. It wa late in the evening and In
fact It waa drawing on well to night when
Larsen tore himself away from hi con
vivial companion and ventured forth to
seek the residence of hi relatives, where
they had awaited him for several hours.
He reached a point between the yard of
the Illinois Central and Northwestern rail
roads, (.mewhat out of 1 is proper direction,
but this wa not noticed by him at the
time. While he wa vainly looking around
for some landmark which would direct him
to where he wanted to go a man stepped
from the shadow of a till tree and ordered
him to hold up hla hands. This wa a new
experience for Larsen, but he had read in
the paper of people being held up and
robbed and he decided to take no such
chances. He started to run, but his feet
failed to respond to hla wish to get away
from that locality and before he knew ex
actly where he waa the robber was on him.
Larsen then decided that dlacre ion waa the
better part of valor and offered to ho d up
his hand while the fellow went through hit
pocket, abstracting therefrom $22, all the
money which Larsen had. Larsen then
obeyed the order to turn about and tart
toward Broadway in preference to becom
ing a dead man, a tfte thug auggeaUd.
About daybreak yesterday morning Lar
sen found his way to police headquarter,
where he reported the hold up. Fred Wroth
wa arrested on the description given by
Larsen and the latter identliled him a on
of the boon companion with whom he had
been drinking in the evening. Wroth, who
denle ever having seen the farmer from
Elkhorn before, will have bis preliminary
