Aug. C, 1913.
Wo arrived in Gibrnlter nt night nnd
anchored in tho bay at tho foot "of the
groat rock. Very oarly In the morning
we were taken nshoro in a tender nnd
put in theforenoon inspecting the place.
The rock is fortified nt different lovela
and holes from which cannons mny
balch forth their shot nnd shell are
scattered all over tho sheer faco over
looking the strait. We knoW thete
honeycomb places are for cannon, for
wo were there on a gront celebration
day and wo saw them shoot round nftor
round. Wo were very close to tho
largest "gun on the grounds. It is n
monster that would seem to be able to
guard tho strait by itself. There is
another cnoriroas gun mounted at the
very ak of the rock but it looks like
n toy pop gun froir Mio wnter level, in
fact the rock towers so high in tho air
that this groat gun ci'.n hardly be seen
with the naked eye.
It does not rain much at Gibraltcr so
they have a' system of catching tho
water that does fall on tho rock nnd
storing it in cisterns. We saw the
English soldiers drill. They arc nearer
like wooden men than anything wo over

other susceptnblo peoplo took It up so
that almost pandemonium reigned for n
few moments. Of course it was all in
the nature of the most fervent wor
ship with no disorder. Most peoplo
enrriod largo bundles of things to re
ceive tho Popo's blessing nnd we took
somo cnrifs for this purpose to send
afterwards to our North Platto frionds.
1 met Dr. Woods Hutchinson, tho
famous writer, in tho clinic of Prof.
Bastimclla in Home. Ho promised to
stop off in North Platto In Janunry and
deliver a lecture When ho found that
I was from North Platto ho said ho
knew tho town very well as ho had a
horse ranch nt Ognlalla nnd often
Btopped off at North Platto. At
Florence we saw tho famous bronzo
doors which Michnl Angolo said Wero
beautiful enough for tho gates of
heaven. From there to Venlco we went
through 49 tunnels in tho mountains
nnd got into Venico in tho middle of
night, by moonlight. This is the cor
rect Way to got into Venico as the
canalt at a supposed to show up better
by moonlight but tho canals smelled
bad nnd tho gondola drivers wero' the
fiercest most lawless bunch of humans
we eyer encountered so it did not make
n good impression on ns. We rode in
gondola about 2J miles to our hotel
with a gondolier who looked ns though
he would Hko to cut our throat any
minute and who swore most viciously
at every other gondo ior whoso boat
came near his. And tho other fellows

here than in any place in Europo where
we visited. Turks, Arabs, Moors,
Europeans nnd negroes nil in their
native dress. Spanish ince goods were
offered very cheap here. We want un
willingly back to our boat undent noon
wero headed intothu Mcditorrean sen.
Sardinu was not interesting a barren
rocky coast but wo pricked our ecra
when we woke up one morning and
looking through the port holo we saw n
smoking mountain with a crescent
shaped city at tho foot of it. Wo wont
on deck and found that we were getting
into Staples. Old Vesuvius is not dead
It always smokes and steams and at
times it snorts and then a stream of
lava comes rolling down its side. There
is a good deal of color in Naples but tho
people are all beggars or robbers and
dirt is everywhere so it is truly a case
of "see Naples and dio" if you cannot
escape. We had ono experience in Naples
with u crazy cab driver in tho worst
quarter of tho city late ct night, which
would mnke an exciting, hair raising
story but it is too long. Wo escnped
to Rome and on tho .wjw was disap
pointed with tho country. It is not the
fertile garden i .wo, believe it to be in
America. It cannot hold a candle to
the Platto River vnlley. Rome is won
derful and of all tho wonderful things
in Rome the greatest is St. Peters.
What millions and millions of dollars
hnvc. been spent on this great cathedral
in-tho centuries it has stood. No ono
can comprehand St. Peters without
seeing it nnd it alone is worth a trip to
Europe. Tho Roman ruins wo found in
teresting, the Coliseum, tho jorum,
the baths of Carncnlla, etc., Dut they
were not ns interesting n8 the ruins of
Pompeii which we went through near
Naples. In Rome nnd in Naples we
found lots of llies but nowhere elso in
Europo. The hotel keepers seemed
much put out when wo objected to the
flies. They consider them household
pets. They use no screens unywhore in
Europe. We "mt to the American
college (which is n college for educating
Americnn young men for tho priesthood)
to get tickets to see the pope and Bis
hop Kennedy very graciously supplied
us. We were tola to be at tna Vatican
by 4:30 on a certain day and we would
receive the pope's blessing nt 6:00. We
arrived promptly rt the hour and
found a large crowd t.lso waiting. Th
famous Swiss guards and other soldiers
in the most gorgeous trappings and un
formj were drawn up in lines at overy
turn and we had to pass between tffese
lines. I had about gotten through into
the inner court when a soldier with
about $400 worth of gold luco nnd linen
ospied my kodak. Ho told mo in Italiun
Vlfif T rtmilrl nnt tutfja If In T nlYnrai If !
to him but he backed up. He directed
mo to a side room down a flight of
stairs where some soldiers were on
guard but at tho sight of the kodak
they threw up their hunds and would
have nothing to do with it. I began to
Beo that they wero afraid it was an in
fernal machine that I had brought in to
blow up the pope. The soldiers sent me
to another group nenror the exit and
when theiSe showed the same sign3 of
fear and seemed to want to
work mo out on the street, I decided
that I would take the thing in and if
necessary rout tho Swiss guards with
my kodak. I said a few bad words to
them in English put tho kodak ovor my
shoulder and boldly marched in paying
no attention to anybody. After I had
again gotten to tho inner court a Bilver
mounted white faced guard came run
ning up to mound I gave him the kodak.
He took it out quickly expecting, I am
sure, at every step that it would go off.'
Tho pope is a ruddy faced, "Btrong
healthy looking man and did not bIiow
any evidence of ever being sick. As ho
gave his blessing somo of the people
present wero quite overcome with
emotion. It was a good psyeological
study, Ono monk near us ns soon ns
soon as tho blessing was finished started
screaming at the top of his voice nnd
they would all begin hitting each other
aver the heads with tho oars.
St, Mark's square is tho beauty spot
of Venico. Hoto ns in Florence tho
most beautiful statuary and pictures
nro offered at very low prices but tho
high American duty presents ono from
buyjrg them. Wo had the most interest
ing experiences in Vienna, Dresden,
Berlin, Cblogne and Pnris which I will
describe in, another lotter if thia does
not find tho wnste basket.

Each Team ta.kes two Games.
The North Platte and Kansas
Red Sox divided honors in tho
games of ball played on the cal
mond, the visitors winning tho
City
four
games played Friday and Saturday, and
the locals nnnexing tno two games Sun
day afternoon.
In Friday's game the visitors won by
a score of three to two, and in Satur
day's game five to four. In Sunday
games tho scores were fourteen to six.
and twenty-ono to six.
The first two were fast games, and
though errors werq largely responsible
for the scores, they wero ns good ex
hibitions of the game as one would caro
to see. Tho Sunday games wero less in
teresting, but provided very good
amusement for tho 800 or 900 peoplo
who witnessed them. The high scores
mndo by North Platte resulted from
strong batting; every player "being ablo
to connect with tho ball. In the first
game twolve scores wero mndo in one
inning.
The Red Sox will return for four
more games. Those will be played
Fridny.Satuiday nnd Sunday afternoons,
with a double-header on Sunday. Tho
Kansas City team is considered by
many the equal of tho Kearney stnlo
league team. Be this as it may, tho
coming games promise to bo well worth
nttending.
