ADMISSION FREE A big fight is being made by Tom Dennison, the Omaha gambler, to keep from going to Iowa. If he is inno cent, what is he afraid of. ■ The pops annually pass resolu tions against the pass system, and then as greedily take ever}’ pass offered. Oh, consistency thou art a jewell, indeed.

Loup City 4, North Loup 2. 1 be Loup City-North Loup game W ednesday was one of the prettiest exhibitions yet this season. From start to finish it was anybody’s game, but finally ended in favor of Loup City by a score of 4 to 2. Space will not allow of extended mention, yet it was more worthy of it than any game so far played on the home grounds. The North Loup boys are a very gentlemanly lot of fellows, and are first class players.
