O’HEILL BASS BALL The game of ball between O’Neill and Randolph, played on the borne grounds last Thursday afternoon, was the best seen in O'Neill since the days when old Tex and Wilson occupied the pitcher's ‘and catcher's boxes respectively. The grounds were filled with specta tors and the enthusiasm was something wonderful to see and deafening to hear. Nothing happened to mar the pleas ure of the game, except the awful um piring of Frank Dorsey, who had his money staked on the Randolph team' and did bis best to win it. He missed no opportunity to give the Randolph boys the better of the decisions, but for all that our team won out by a score of 7 to 8. Following is the way the game was played: o'null. .

Barney Ryan took a campstool out with him but he was so excited that he couldn’t sit on it. Patridge says there Is a town up in South Dakota with a set of roasters that out roast O’Neill. The field work was simply immense. O’Donnell was good but Holland was out of sight. His one-hand catch was the star play of the game. . John Auten was unusually enthus iastic for Randolph. He bet silver dol lars against aluminum- medals with an O’Neill lady and was so excited lhat be didn’t know the difference. Umpire Frank Dorsey was about as rank as they make them. Captain Mer riman didn’t miss the truth far when-be told him that he never knew'a Dorsey who would give a man a square deal. Harry Dowling sprained his ankle while attempting a slide at second. It was a very painful accident and although he finished the game he was confined to his room for a couple of days afterwards. A voice from the bleachers yelled out to Umpire Dorsey that if he did not let up on his rbugh work the ’ vigilantes would be out in the diamond with a rope. Editor Lohman said the remark made him nervous. Hanley pitched a good game consider ing that he has had no practice this year to speak of. He didn’t fan the boys but he confined their hits so they were easily handled. If the management would give Tim a little more work he would pitch a game plenty good enough. His arm is in better shape than it was seven years ago when be played with O'Neill’s champion team.

O’NEILL MONUMENT Now Riiei Above HU Grave in Holy Sepulcher Cemetery. TRIBUTE OF NUMEROUS FRIENDS HU Career at a Union Soldier and Fenian Leed«r-'-Foand*r of O'Neill. Omaha Bee: For over seventeen yean the grave 0f General John O’Neill In Holy Sepulcher cemetery In Omaha re mained unmarked. By many this was regarded as a reflection on the patriotism of surviving friends, admirers and asso ciates in the movement for the better ment of his countrymen. But bis mem ory was not forgotten, uor was his grave neglected. Some time ago friends of the deceased in Omaha inaugurated a fund to procure a monument in all respects worthy of his memory, and with the assistance of outside admirers their efforts were recently crowned with suc cess. The monument stands at the head of the grave on the northern crest of the cemetery hill. The location is a sightly one. To the east and north miles of the city’s suburbs are within range of the vision. Sodth and west the eye (nay sweep the Pappio valley and the valleys and upland. The monument is a square column of polished grauite, fifteen feet high, resting on two terraced blocks of granite, and beneath is a four-foot foundation of cemented stone. The cap stone is cruciform. On the four squares are emblematic designs—the open hand, the Irish harp, the American eagle and stars. Around these shamrocks twine. On the main base the name '‘O'Neill” is carved in raised letters, and on the front of the monument is the following In scription: GENERAL JOHN O'NEILL. Deroof Ridgeway. Born In Ireland. Murcli 9,18114. Died In Omaha, January 8,1878. By Nature a Brave Man, By Principle a Soldier of Liberty. He Fought with Distinction forHla Adopted Country .and Was Ever Ready to Draw His Sword for Bis Native Land.. To Perpetuate His Memory This Monument was Erected by the Irish Nationalists. GOD SAVE IRELAND. < The lot is surrounded with a granite coping. General O’Neitl achieved distinction in the union army during the war. - Al the breaking out of the rebellion be waa sergeant ma|or of the First cavalry, hav ing joined the army in 1857. He served with McCellan in the Peninsula cam paign, and had a horse shot under him at the battle of Gaines’ mill. Later he joined the Fifth Indian cavalry, serving in Kentucky, Indiana and Ohio, and for gallantry in the famous Morgan raid wai commissioned first lieutenant,(and latei rose to the rank of captain. Trouble some wounds forced him to retire from the army in 1884. , / After the war, ——, with thousands of big countrymen who had just laid down their arms, Oeneral O’Neill rallied around the Fenian standard, and was chosen of the leaders of the projected raid on Canada, The movement crys talized in the early summer of 1866, and rendezvoused on the American border from Buffalo to Ogdensburg. General O'Neill commanded the first detachment of the raiders to set foot on Canadian soil. They crossed Niagara river neat Buffalo, to the number of 600, and captured Fort Erie on June 1. The day following they met the British troopt near Ridgeway, a dozen miles north ol Fort Erie. There were three Britishers to one Fenian, but the desparity in numbers did not prevent them coming together. Some sharp fighting was had. culminating in the rout of the British. O’Neill did not receive the support ex' pected, in fact the movement was with out a governing head on the American side, and was forced to retire in a fee days from Canada. Arrest followed ant the raid collapsed. General O’Neill is best remembered it Nebraska for his efforts in colonizing the state. More enduring than graniti is the prosperous and progressive city it Holt county which he founded anc which bears his name. The best efforti of his later years were in the interest of the peace and prosperity of his coun trymen. He labored zealously to draw them from tho crowded cities to fertili lands, then to be had for the asking Many acted on his advice and struggled through the hardships incident to pioneei farming.

I hastily gave him a dose of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. He was soon relieved and the first words he uttered were, “what was that stuff you gave me?” I informed him.
