Graduation Exercises.
On last Thursday evening the K.
C. hall was well filled to meet and
greet the 1908 graduating class of the
O’Neill high school, and to listen to
the orations delivered by them. The
orations were all well and carefully
prepared and the graduates and in
structors were highly compliment
ed upon the splendid standing
of the class. The noticeable feature
< about the evening was the absence
from the hall of the members of the
O’Neill school board, only one was In
attendance. Two of the members
were not in thecitybutlt would seem
^ that those who were would have at
least been present upon this occasion
which to the young graduates, was
the most important event of their
lives.
The program was as follows, with
the exception that Prof. Wadsworth
was to go west on the 10:37 train so
could not remain to speak in the or
der on the program, but was sand
wiched in between the first and
second orations:

The Live Stock Mafket
The cattle market cl osaf^ week
in very bad shape, the woSjRsince the
fore part of March on ; th^'common
kinds of cattle. There is not an over
supply of well fatted cattle and this
kind has held up comparatively weJL
This week opens with lighter receipts
and a reaction for the better again on
good killers. Cow stock steady; good
feeders a shade higher.
We quote:

The very liberal hog receipts have
been a surprise. Chicago had 65,000
Monday, more than half of what they
estimated for the whole week. Re
ceipts at South Omaha are heavy.
Bulk $5.05—$5.20.
The bad condition of the sheep and
lamb market has reduced receipts so
there is hardly enough here for a mar
ket thus far this week and prices will
no doubt firm up.
Defeated at Neiigh.
The high school ball team went to
Neiigh last Friday and were cleaned
up in artistic style by the high school
team of the Antelope county metrop
olis. At the end of the ninth inning
O’Neill had two i cores, while Neiigh
registered twelve. Bases on balls,
singles, doubles and home runs by the
Neiigh athletics were so frequent that
the official score keeper had a hard
time in keeping track of them. Fol
lowing was the line up:
Kane - left field H. Stevenson
Hammond center P. Stevenson
Grady catcher H. Cole
McNicholas first base Leonard
Campbell shortstop Ryan
Golden second base J. Cole
Biglin third base Miller
Hunt rignt field Woods
