O’Neill Wins Another.
Before what was probably the lar
gest crowd that; ever witnessed a ball
game in O’Neill, the O’Neill base ball
team defeated the Emmet team by a
score of 21' to 9. The game was very
ragged, errors being very numerous on
both sides and the slugging of the
O’Neill team was very hard and per
sistant. The game opened with Lintt
gracing the mound for O’Neill while
a chap called Spjut done the twirling
for Emmet. Kirkiand was supposed
to do the deceiving for Emmet, he be
ing in that position, presumely for
that purpose, but was a miserable fail
ure and was responsible for several
of O’Neill’s runs. Everything pro
ceeded quite smoothly up until the
last half of the sixth, the score being
tied in the first, third and first of the
sixth innings, but at this juncture
our boys fell upon the already miser
"able Spjut and on six hits, three er
rors and a base on balls succeeded in
scoring nine runs, Tim Ryan getting
two hits and Eddie Alberts scoring
two rune in this inning. Captain
Arthur Wilson determined that some
thing must be done immediately to
save what was left of the day, held a
hurried consultation with his lieu
tenants and no one else being willing
to take up the pitching burden Cap
tain Wilson himself was forced to the
mound, and while Art is getting old
and is not near the pitcher that he
used to be he let the O’Neill team
down with three hits in the two in
1 ings that he officiated. Lintt pitched
a fairly good game for O’Neill but
numerous errors behind him coupled
with timely hits were responsible for
most of Emmett’s scores. The score
by innings was as follows:
Emmet.2 2 0 0 2 1 2 0 0 —9
O’Neill.2 0230932 0—21
Home run, Shaw. Three base
hits: Ryan, J. Trochinski. Two base

; Flea For a Safe and Sane Fourth.
I Every year on the Anniversary of
; our Independence as a nation we read
> in the daily papers how many people
! have been made dependent for life by
| their foolish and senseless method of
> celebrating the Fourth of July. De
[ pendent because they have lost their
J eyesight, their limbs or suffered other
> injuries, or because by their careless
> ness with fireworks they have de
| stroyed their homes, their busines;
> and lost their savings accumulated by
i years of hard labor.
J The firecracker, the skyrocket, the
> roman candle, the cannon, and other
t destructive toys and playthings year
ly dole out their share of pain and
misery. The little toy balloon, pretty
to look at for a fleeting moment, has
many times dropped upon the roofs
of buildings, in yards, in rubbish
piles, hay sacks, etc., setting them on
fire and destroying hundreds of dol
lars worth of property.
Each year new kinds of fireworks
are maufactured and bought by
careless, thoughtless people. It seems
that the larger and brighter the fire
and the louder the noise they make
the more attractive is the article to
the purchaser.
The fire departments of our cities
ar.d towns are usually overtaxed by
numerous calls on the Fourth of July.
The lives of the firemen, always in
danger when running to a fire, are
especially endangered on the Fourth
by explosives thrown along the streets
as they pass; the hard and frequent
runs are injurious to the horses on
hot days; the wear and tear of the
fire apparatus is increased, and al
togeher fireworks makes July 4th a
deplorable day from many viewpoints.
The mayors of the different towns
throughout the state should employ at
least two of the volunteer fireman to
stay at the fire house on the Fourth
so that in case of a fire call it could be
answered without delay. The firemen
should remain on duty until the vil
lage is through celebrating.
During the past ten years a total
of 39,850 people, the equivalent of
nearly forty regiments, were killed or
injured in Fourth of July celebrations
in this country.
However, since many officials and
citizens have interesed hemselves in
the matter of celebrating the Fourth —
of July in a safe and sane manner the ^
loss of life and property has grad
ually decreased.
This decrease in loss of life and
property on the Fourth is indisput
ably due to the agitation by fire
marshalls and ciy officials against the
dangerous way of celebration hereto
fore practiced on Independence Day.
This department has tried to reach
every official, Commercial Clubs and
Woman’s Clubs, through the news
papers to obtain their co-operation in
having a safe and sane Fourth. The
fact that our school children are be
ing taught the great danger of using
fireworks and their assistance asked
in helping to abolish the old, danger
ous and barbarous way of observing
the Fourth has a great deal to do
with decreasing the enormous loss on
this fateful day.
inis department wishes now to ad- I
monish parents not to purchase dan- I
gerous explosives and fireworks. If I
you must see them, go to some park "
where they are set off by a paid
practical man who assumes the re- 1
sponsibility and danger. 1
Officials could and should prohibit
their use within city limits. There 1
are many ways of enjoying the r
Fourth in a patriotic way without the
use of fireworks. Listening to
speeches, looking at parades, visiting
the parks, and innumerable safe and t
enjoyable ways. i
We wish to earnestly request all r
citizens, all men, women and children I
to abstain from fireworks this com- f
ing Fourth of July, so that on the
5th of July not a town in the whole (
state of Nebraska will be mourning e
the loss of a single life, not lament- f
ing over the injury to a single per
son nor deploring the loss of a single \
dollar’s worth of property through r
the foolish, senseless, unnecessary use s
of fireworks. j

Fire Commisioner.

Three Horse Markets.
Nebraska is making phenomenal
irogress as a horse market state, St.
jouis is regarded as the largest mar
cet in the world while Chicago clfeims
lecond place. Then comes Grand Is
and, South Omaha and Kansas City,
ill making claims for the third place.
Lincoln also has a flourishing market
vhich is rapidly expanding in im
portance with spirited sales every
veek at Grand Island, South Omaha
ind Lincoln, the market possibilities
pf Nebraska cannot be emphasized too
strongly to horsemen.
In breeding animals, the Percherons
seem to be the strong favorites as 53
per cent of all the pure bred stallions
are Percherons, with all the other
breeds trailing below 12 per cent. Why
not make it uninimous and have Ne
braska recognized as the Percheron
breeding ground of the world? Our
natural advantages equal those of any
country on earth for this industry.
Pure Food Show.
Women of Nebraska are displaying
much interest in the pure food display
at the next state fair. Under the di
rection of Deputy Food Commissioner
Harmon, all the details of the manu
facture, handling and production of
foods will be exemplified. Special at
tention will be given to demonstrating
the foods manufactured in Nebraska
and enlightening the public as to them
value. The building formerly used
for the agricultural exhibit will be
devoted to this purpose. The club
women of the state are working in
harmony with the deputy food com
missioner.
