Exten sions Sure to Come Railroad rumors the past few days regarding extension of the l\ 1*. from thi> point to Broken Bow, by way ol the new proposed line to lie builded by local promotors, has lieen given a new lease of life, and are being given much credence by those interested. Added to this is the belief that the 15. & M. people are on the eve of ex tending their Sine from Cairo on the main line to Loup City, and from Sargent across to the main line at I tunning, making this their main trade ine from Brand Island west to the I‘acitic Coast, via the Black Hills note. This is given roseate color from the fact tl.at B. & M. surveyors are now setting stakes at Austin com ing Iro n the main line just west ol Cairo, and are headed for Loup City. A well known Burlington official, in conversation with a representative of this paper, gave us the distinct im pression. while refusing to lie quoted, that the new extension from Cairo to Loup City and from Sargent to Iiunning would soon begin, making Loup City a division station, on the main line and with, ail that it means tii this town and section. We are not giving our readers hot air. but are in a position to speak with more or less accuracy, when we predict the great future lor our city The Fourth The Fourth could not have come on a pleasanter or more glorious day. All nature smiled and owing to the finer than silk' rain that visited this section Saturday night, the farmers, business men and every other body were made happy and fully prepared to have the time" oi tlieir lives on the great natal day. In Loup City. Jenner’s Parks were tiie central scene of activity. All day the park was a bower of beauty with the hundreds of p easure seek ers strolling lie re ami there, visiting the zoological specimens, with which the park is equipped, while in the afternoon the ball park was crowded with fans and •fannies" to witness the best base ball contest so far w it nessed in that up-to dau and most elegantly equipped place of amuse ment. At about 3 o'clock, with the grand stand rilled to its full capacity and with the space on either side of : the diamond tilled, besides long lines of spectators lining the fence on the outside on the park side, the Grand Island Wolbacli's and Loup City ball twirlers engaged in combat, which took ten long innings to deeide by one lone score that the Wolbacli's were entitled to be w inners. the score being kept down to tiie low point of i ■') to 4. it being tiie game of either up I to the tenth, when a batted ball over tiie fence gave Grand Island a home ' run. Loup City failing to even up when they came to hat, leaving tiie ; former tiie victors by one score, j Splendid work was done by both teams and the game passed off very pleasantly. At the close of the game, the crowds thronged through the park gates and on to the grounds, where a generous program was put i on for the masses of humanity which surged here and there enthusiastic lover each event, which lasted till the shades of night fell. The program of sports given was: Potato race on horseback, won by Arthur Hansel: w restling on horseback, wen by Bert Kay: tilting at the ring, also won by Hansel: baby cab walking race by happy papas, won by W. S. Waite, the long-legged. LMoot-stride tele phone manager (whom we will never forgive for besting the editor and his j cherub;: boys' high jump, won by j I Cecil Draper: ladder race, Harold Uowe winner: foot race, with Earl Miller in the lead: cock tight, won by I Lee liiddleson. and fire baloon race won by II. Stutheit. In the midst ! of these sports, the picnicking parties called a halt till after they had done the hungry act. tiie grounds being dotted with temporary refreshment tables. The departure of Old Sol from the heavens and overspreading darkness brought forth a fine display of fireworks provided by the manage ment. and then the people, save those who remained to trip the light fantastic, wafted home to rest, tired but happy over one of the most pleasant events ever given by the .lenner l'ark management. We would not forget one of the best parts of the celebration, which was the music provided by the Ashton band, which was simply grand and gave evidence that our sister village on the east has some as good talent as one could wish, and which re ceived unstinted praise from all our people. Desiues uie uoiugs at .1 tnuer s Parks, there were numerous picnic parties at various points along the river, besides the celebration down at Wiggle Creek, at Litclitield and at various points over the county. The Misses Nettie and Lucy Fowl er went to Aurtua last Saturday to spend the Fourth, also visiting rela tives at < hnaha and other points for j a few weeks. We received an interesting letter this week from R. H. Mathew.who is touring across the big pond, written from Paris. It will appear in nest week’s paper. We understand Mas Leschinsky has purchased the lots just south of the German church from A. L. Zimmer man and will build a line cement block residm e thereon. The Industrial Society of the Pres byterian church will serve ice cream in the court house park this week Saturday afternoon and evening. Help the ladies financially and please your palate by patronizing them. Last Sat urday morning some thirty or more former Aurora and Hamilton county people, who are now among the best of Sherman county's best people on earth, went to their old home town and county to spend the Fourth. It is impossible to name them all. but we append a few who headed the list: Mr. and Mrs. D. L. •lacoby and family, M. R. and C. W. Voung(|uest. Misses Nettie and Lucy Fowler. Anna Stutheit. Messrs.
