Governor Speaks.
"Wo are met hero today to com
memorate the life of a man who has
made hlBtory," said Governor Aldrich
In opening the preliminary address.
Ho said that worthy deeds are worthy
of emulation In a body like this. "Wo
havo gathered together on occasions
to commemorate the lives of men who
havo lived' to make their country bet
ter." Governor Aldrich Introduced Chan
cellor Avery, who gavo a brief synop
sis of the services of General Dudley
to the University of Nebraska. "The
university to which ho" came In the
fall of 1876 differed considerably from
the university of today. The total of
180 students waB largely of women,
and Lieutenant Dudley had only a
small coterie of men from which to
organize the military department."
He became in time .to be the best liked
instructor la the university. From be
ing the least liked department, the
military department grew to be the
most popular fn the university. Even
the young women wanted to organize
military, companies, tho department
was so popular. Lieutenant Dudley
himself was the first Instructor at
Nebraska. also in engineering. After
three years ho returned to his regular
charge. He waB again returned to tho
university post In tho year 1884.
Tho governor waB compelled to
withdraw from tho meeting.. Ho re
quested the chancellor to preside in
hla stead.
Professor Barber.
Prof. Grove E. Barber made a short
nddress. He said in part:
"As commandant of the cadets he
at all times felt the dignity of his
charge and was successful In the in
fluencing of young lives. I never knew
. a man who was easier to get acquaint
ed with or whose friendship was eTOF

ier to retain. I never heard of him
having an enemy."
E. P. Brown, state senator from
Lancaster county, who waB a student
under General Dudley, told of his Im
pression of his former Instructor.
"He became eminent In tho army
and in life by able and honest ser
vice," said Senator Brown.
General J. H. CulVor, representing
tho Grand Army and tho Loyal Legion,
snoke briefly regarding tho rapid rise
which Dudley made in his service In J
the army.
Hon. H. H. Wilson of the law school
faculty said: "It was while I was yet
an undergraduate, when ho was first
detailed by tho government as ofllcer
at tho university. History compels
me to admit that I was ono of the
miscreants who did not want to pur
chase a uniform." Ho went on to Bay
that he was later reconciled and
learned to like It.
Judge Field. .
Judge A. W. Field, one of the
seniors who helped organize tho mill
tary company, spoke for tho Scottish
Rito MasonB. "I have always been
proud of my military record, which
began and ended In my senior year,"
ho began. He told of a time when tho
cadets took tho old cannon up to the
state house and left It with an ultl
'matum asking for Immediate appro
priations from the legislature. Com
mandant Dudley did not reprimand the
boys, but rather left them to punish
themselves. Captain McAllister' was
commissioned by the company to go
to market square, rent a span or
mules, and haul the old1 cannon back
to the campus. The captain did as his
company desired.'
Rov. F. S. Stein, D. D.f then pro
nounced tho benediction.
After the sqrvlces tho cadet regi
ment formed into line on Twoirth
street and marched back to tho ar
mory.. Members of the faculty did
not heBltato to compare the magnifi
cently arrayed regiment with the
small but well drilled- company of
twenty-live yeanrngo:

Try to Make a Hurricane Finish
at the End of the
First Half.
Nebraska took tho first conference
basketball gamo of tho Boason, playod
on tho homo floor, last night from
Ames by a scoro of 41 to 20. Tho vis
itors wore outplayed from tho start,
Nebraska rolling up a total of ten
points before tho Ames quintet start
ed. Fast playing and excellent toam
work on tho part of tho Cornhuskors
spoiled tho defent of the Agglob, as
they were only once nblo to break
down tho Nebraska plays. This was
at tho close of tho first half, when
Ames by a wondorful spurt held tho
Cornhuskers scoreless for threo min
utes and when the half ended tho
score was 18 to 10 In favor of Ne
braska. Second-Haff-Easy.-
In tho second half Ames never had
a chanco to win, Nebraska throwing
goal almost at will. Tho gamo was
tho cleanest that has been played on
tho local floor this year, only two per
sonal fouls being registered against
both teams. Carrier (tho former Om
aha high school star, was tho sensa
tion of tho gamo, making a total of
seven field goals or more points for
Nebraska than any other man, and
throwing goals from almost any point
on tho floor. Owon, who wont in for
Captain Hutchinson of tho Nebraska

Btar gamo, throwing four baskets dur
ing tho last half.

ter, starred, although ho was unablo
to do 'very much with Hiltnor. Both
men were well matched and threw
three field goals each. H. Brown and
J. Brown for tho Aggies also scored
six points each for their school.
Tho exhibition of team work on tho
part of tho Cornhuskers was the best
that the men havo shown this season.
Passing and dribbling was almost per
fect, and tho local five outclassed the
Ames quintet at every turn. From
start to finish the gamo was fast, both
teamB playing at break-neck speed
throughout. Tho second half marked
tho substitution of several Nebraska

two new men Into tho game. Tho
final scoro was 41 to 20.
