AN EVENT OF UNUSUAL INTEREST
But Poorly Attended and Illy Appre
ciated by the Patrons of the Pub
lic Schools
Judging by the attendance upon the
declamatory contest by pupils of the
McCook high school last Saturday eve
ning in the Temple theatre che patrons
of the public schools of our city do not
take an impelling interest in suph
affairs which in other towns and cities
in this part of tho state are attracting
keen interest and crowding the houses
at their contests
Notwithstanding the contest was de
cidedly worth while the participants
doing themselves credit in each in
stance
The program opened with an instru
mental piano duet by Mrs W B Mills
and Fern blitcrat whioh waa well re
ceived
Joseph Moore had tho opening His
subject was Francis Scott Key author
of the Star Spangled Banner He
gave it dignified and careful oratorical
treatment but slightly marred by for
getting lines
A Telephone Romance was the title
of Miss Alma Craws declamation
While unsuited in its humorous style
to Miss Craws temperament the reci
tation was done in a very satisfactory
manner
Whon Miss Gertrude Morrissey bad
completed her How the LaRue Stakes
Were Lost it was quite patent to the
hearers what would be the disposition
of the first priz Miss Gertrude is
clever and finished in her dramatic
work
Miss Florence Wilson of the oratorical
class did very creditably in handling
the heavier subjectOur National Safe
guards
Harold Schwab quite took the audi
ence by storm in offering the profoundly
humorous subject The Relation of the
Mosquito to the Human Family He
proved the relationship quite intimate
and gave the audience another tip as to
the silver medal
One of the strong efforts of the even
Holdrege Has Big Fire
Monday night Holdrege suffered a
8350000 fire in a high wind Their fa
mous big elevator and 150000 bushels of
grain were destroyed The Burlington
coal chute some twenty odd cars four
of them merchandise cars a quantity
of coal and much damage to tracks and
delay of traffic were the Burlington loss
A hotel and several dwellings make up
the total and the most disastrous fire
in Holdreges history
