Andrew Carnegie or John D. Rockerellow.
Mr. Walsh has been suffering from a

It is plannel now to encourage at this

servation clubs, in order to prepare Ne
braska to care for the coming Immigration

Some of the speakers Will argue that It
Is not necessary for a farmer to cultivate
several hundred acres of land, but they
will show that by scientific ' cultivation,
twenty-five to thirty acres ok land will
produce as much as 100 acres cultivated
In the old way.
It Is not expected that this first meet

at this time are busy In their fields, but
a lot of business men, farmera' Institute
lecturers and others, Who are Interested
are expected to show up and take part
In the discussions. The meetings .will be

The Question of the authority of the ex
cise board to license less than forty
saloons, should the town go wet, that
number being set out in- the petition ask
ing for the election is being serlusly dis
cussed. Those who are' managing .the fight
for the 'wets, insist that the excise board
will have full authority to locate these
saloons where It desires, and it also has
authority to refuse ai lloense to, any person
considered an undersirtbte gallon keeper."
The dry side argues that the excise board
roust license forty ' saloons, . whether the
applicants for the liense are desirable or
not

Omaha and South Omaha Ilieh schools
each won and lost a basket ball game
Saturday night at the Young Men'a Chris
tian association gymnasium. The alumni
sqvad of the Omaha High school took a
hard-fought Contest from the South Omaha
alumni by a score of 28 to 25, while tho
Omaha regulars lost to the South Omaha
lads by a score of 19 to 11.
The team work of Omaha was perhaps
a little faster than that of South Omaha,
but It wa not sure enough to place the ball
In the basket often enough. The basket
shootlngof the Omaha lads was not quite
as good as that of South Omaha, but
Omaha also had considerable "hard luck''
In this point, as often Just a It seemed that
a goal had been made the ball would roli
out of the little Iron hoop and the effort
was all In vain. The lineup:

The preliminary game held between the
alumni players was an exhibition of star
playing on the part of Individuals rather
than scientific basket bail, owing to the
fact that neither team had ever played to
gether before. Omaha, led by Ben Crrer
rlngton, got about four points ahead of
South Omaha in the first half and kept that
lead all through the game, as their oppon
ents were unable with all their efforts to
make up the deficit in the score.
For the South Omaha squad Cohn easily
outplayed any of the other members of his
team, but the guarding of Klddoo, the big
left guard, was the saving of a score being
made many tlmea during the game. The
