John C Den arose at sev en this morning and found North Platto wrapped in tho grasp of a May bliz zard, ho said something stronger than "well I declare." Today Is the opening of the state gun club tournament In North Pntte, and as tho Colonel was one of the prime movers In bringing the shoot here and naturally' desires the visitors to have "one of tho times of their lives," ho personally felt per turbed at weather conditions. Howev er, the "gunmen" aro here over one hundred strong and as they are men who hunt chicken In torrid weather and geeso when tho temperature Is far below zero, they are not likely to bo much disturbed by a May snow storm and besides It may clear up before real activities begin on the club giounds. Events will be pulled off forenoons and afternoons,. and a small carload sof shells will be exploded and' cart loads of targets broken. Tho Trbuue extends a hearty welcome to tho visiting sportsmen and hopes that their stay in town will bo pleasant, notwithstanding the weather is so in auspicious this forenoon. North Platte is yours, gentlemen, whilo you aro hero. IN TWO Entertain for Mrs. Austin.
