How The Boys Did It
The McCook boys enmo in on No 2
Saturday morning and were taken to
Che homes of our team They spont the
remainder of the morning in seeing the
town and looking over tho foot ball
grounds
Tho teams camo to tho grounds
promptly a t 2 30 where they were
greeted by a good crowd
Both teams were well matched The
game started with McCooks kick off
Holdrege securing the ball and making a
3rig run towards their goal Then came
the lino work of our boys in which they
succeeded in pushing the McCook boys
within McCooks live yard line and by
some mishap lost the juall
Our boys held McCook pretty close to
goml and finally got tho ball which re
sulted in a line smash by Paul Nelson
who went through the line and made a
touch down
Next camo tho Holdrege kick off
which ended in a touch down for
but instead of McCooks being
nsnlucky at kicking goal it scored mak
ing our boys one behind
Thus the first half ended with a score
of 5 to 6 in favor of McCook
The second half was a play for life
Xt had been necessary for McCook to put
in substitutes Both sides were hitting
tho lines hard when McCook by one of
Sier trick plays scored again
Our boys were playing hard in the last
half and were gaining on their goal when
the whistle blew and all attempts wore
n vain the game being stopped with a
core of 11 to 5
It vras a hard game and it was only by
the good interference and team work
that the McCook boys won Holdrege

Degree of Honor Resolutions
Whereas it has pleased the Supreme
Protector to suddenly call from this life
our brother James V OConnell there
fore be it
Resolved that in the death of Brother
OConnell this lodge has lost a respected
member his family a generous and loved
father and husband and McCook a good
citizen And
Resolved that we commend the be
reaved family to the tender care of Our
Father which art in heaven that a

Reconsidered Their Former Action
At their meeting on Monday night of
this week the members of the local
A O U W reconsidered their action of
Monday night of last week relative to
cooperating with P C Kellogg in build
ing a lodge hall and their former action
was rescinded- There seems to be con
siderable opposition to the lodges en
gaging in such a project and it was
thought best under the circumstances to
drop the matter entirely harmony being
n essential element in successfully car
Tying out such an enterprise

So the People May Know
Inasmuch as tho new revenue law has
been the subject of much discussion in
regard to taxes wo have had the follow
ing comparative statement taken from
the county treasurers books showing
the 1903 and 190 1 taxes covering tho
same tracts of land
These names were taken at random
from the books and in every instance it
will be found that only the bottom land
is higher in 1901
In some cases an unusually heavy levy
for school purposes has kept the tax up
The schedules of personal tax being
not yet completed it is impossible to
publish these at this time
Tho Railway Companys tax in this
county is increased 70 per cent

The effects of narcotics judging from
the number of pupils who indulge in to
bacco should be taught in all the high
school grades where many of the pupils
seem to be entirely unmindful and fear
less of the effects of tobacco It is
rather incongruous and remarkable to
see lads even below the high school
grades going to and returning from
school smoking the nastiest and foulest
pipes imaginable Perhaps the teaching
might be made more practical at any
rate an effort might be made to prohibit
smoking to and from school in the in

Red Cloud Advertiser
A good story is told at the expense
of Superinteudent Calvert One of the
rules posted for the benefit of the chair
car porters was that smoking on duty
or in the cars was prohibited One night
Mr Calvert walked through a chair car
in a train at Oxford It had been va
cated for the time being by the passen
gers and but one person was in the car
That was the porter a new colored man
from the Missouri lines He was enjoy
ing a smoke Mr Calvert tapped him
on the shoulder gently and asked him if
he did not know that it was against the
rules of the company for porters to smoke
in their cars The belligerency of the col
ored man was in evidence at once He
said I guess it is none of your business
so long as the officials of the road do not
catch me at it It is said that Mr Cal
vert smiled and went on Lincoln Jour

of amounts lostwill be instituted by the

she regarded dogs And one who ever

sition to overhear some of the vile pro

common with men and even youths on

that the lady aforesaid had large room
