Abd|>uch O’Neill, Nebraska O’NEILL WINS ANOTHER GAME FROM CREIGHTON SUNDAY O’Neill played their third game with Creighton last Sunday at Creighton winning the game by a score of 5 to I. The first game between these two teams was played at Oakview with O’Neill winning 5 to 3; the second game was played here on July 5th with Creighton winning 2 to 1, and the third game last Sunday. The game Sunday was a better game than the score would indicate, as the game went to the 8th inning with one to nothing in favor of O’Neill but in that inning each side scored once and was the only score Creigh ton got during the game. In the ninth inning Quincy weakened and Joe Martin who is leading the hitters for the local club came up and singled, then Tom Troshynski hit a grounder to the second baseman and in trying to make a double both men were safe. Schollmeyer was up next and hit a ' double scoring Joe Martin and Tom Troshynski. Bazelman next up got to first on an error, then Hank Martin knocked out a fly to left field and Schollmeyer scored, making three for the inning and a total of five. In the last of the ninth Creighton was un able to score only getting one single. Honeycutt, O’Neill’s twirling ace was in fine condition and held the Creighton men in the palm of his hand only in reality three hits, but the um pire's decision on the foul of Holi day’s made it a fourth. Quincy who used to be a real pitcher a couple years ago has surely slipped a lot. Creighton will come here next Sun day and we expect that they will come plugged to the eyebrows, as they wish to even up the defeat of last Sunday.

Ballard and son, Max, who have been touring the west for the past few weeks and we reproduce it in part: “Netart Beach, Netart, Oregon, July 17. 1928. “Just a few lines to let you know that we are alive and enjoying life We ,iave been out on the Pacific beach es since July 8th. We go to the moun tains on Thursday and expect to camp among the big trees in Govemmenl Springs, Washington. We will circl« Mt.

WILL DRILL FOR OIL IN' GHOST LIGHT DISTRICT A meeting was held at Sunset ! Lodge last Tuesday by a number of I local men who are interested in the : proposition of drilling a test well in the much talked about Ghost Light district northwest of O’Neill. Harry T. Osborne, who has been connected with the drilling of oil for many years, has consented to do the drilling without cost if no oil is forth coming in the test well. Mr. Osborne is not a geologist and does not claim to know there is oil in the proposed district, but he says that he does know how to handle a rig and if the businessmen really want to know what is in the ground out there he is willing to put his time into the test well on a chance undertaking. Enough money has been raised among local enthusiasts to procure the drilling equipment which is now being negotiated for. More money will be required to build the tower and furnish the fuel for the drilling. Mr. Osborn expects to leave in a few days for Tulsa and Ponca City, Oklahoma, to complete the arrange ments for the rig which will be in O’Neill in about two weeks. Work will be started as soon as the rig ar rives and the tower is constructed, Mr. Osborn says that about sixty days will be required to complete a well provided they experience no bad luck. There is no one who is receiving money for their services: the onl\ . money Deing expended is for expenses I of the operation of the rigs. People of this section have beer wondering for a long time if there if oil deposits underneath those myste rious lights that have been dancing over the hills northwest of O’Neill foi many years and this test well will to a certain extent satisfy their curi osity. JUBILEE BELLS. Last Wednesday morning St. Mary’i Academy was the scene of an unique celebration in honor of the Silvei Jubilee of two of the sisters. Sr. Marj Eleonore and Sr. Mary Herlindis. The latter is well known to the pupils whe have attended St. Mary’s as she has spent twenty-one years in O’Neill. High Mass at eight o’clock was (celebrated by Rev. Father Leahy ir | the absence of Right Rev. Monsignoi Cassidy. Father Leahy gave an ap propriate address and congratulate! the Jubilarians on having chosen th< I religious life and spent a quarter oi a century in the service of God and j charity to mankind. J The academy chapel was very beau II ifully decorated with ferns and fresl flowers as it was there the celebratior was begun. At eight o’clock the as sembled friends of the sisters wert greeted by the strains of “Ven 1 Sponsa Christi” sweetly rendered bj the choir of St. Patrick’s church | which also sang the High Mass Twenty-five little “Flower Girls’ I marched through the chapel to th« cloister entrance and conducted th« Jubilarians to front seats for th< ! services. After Mass the honored ones re reived the congratulations of theii i friends and acquaintances in th< academy parlors. They were thi recipients of gifts and good wishes from near and far, and the day's cele bration is one that will long be re membered, not only by Sr. M. Eleon ore, Sr. M. Herlindis, but by the en tire community of St. Mary’s academj and kind friends.

POVLTRY' AND DAIRY DEMONSTRATION DAY Last Saturday afternoon a number of farmers and those interested in the development of the poultry and dairy industry of this part of Holt county gathered on the court house lawn to listen to interesting talks from Mr. Liebers of the Dairy Development Society of the Agricultural college; Frank Mussehl, head of the Poultry Husbandry Department, and Merle Brouse, of the state farm at Valen-I tine, on soil culture. These gentle men are well versed on their subjects and have gained much of their knowl edge by actual experence and prac tical work. Dr. Finley, president of the Com j mercial club was in charge of the meeting and made a very interesting talk along development lines. Robert McGinnis and J. F. O’Djnnell also made excellent talks. The dairy and poultry industry is receiving more attention from Holt county people each year but there is considerable room for advancement. Many of our farmers and towns peo , pie harbor the thought that these men who travel over the state talking dairy and poultry to farmers know only what they read in books and that they know nothing of the practical side of the dairy and poultry business. These men, it is true, gather considerable knowledge from books on these sub jects, but those who write the books used by these men wrote them after a long and careful study of their sub ject from actual experience and the help of practical men. Mr. Liebers, Mr. Mussehl and Mr. Brouse are practical men and know their subjects from a practical standpoint. Deversified farming is coming; the farmer who does not realize a profit from poultry and dairying is not get ting all that is in store for him. The McClellan Shows—the carnival company that occupied the streets of O’Neill during the Running Race Meet early in July, and a couple of even , gelist contested the rights for a lot in Omaha the first of the week. The , evangelists were occupying a plot of ground upon which the McClellan , Shows had! a contract and when they arrived they proceeded to set up their shows. An agreement, however, was soon reached whereby both organiga tions are using the lots.
