partment with headquarters in San

The Eagle Screams
At North Platte
North Platte's celebration of the
nation's natal day waB one of the most
successful the city has ever held, and
with the exception of one day when the
Wild West show gave an exhibition,
the number of out-of-town visitors has
never been exceeded. All day long an J
until near midnight the streets were a
seething mass of humanity. The visit
tors came from as far west as Ogalalla
and from Cozad, Gothenburg, Brady
and Maxwell on the east.
Captain Ruddy ushered in the. day by
the usual salutes from the big cannon,
nnd so heavily did the Captain load her
that one wheel of the carriage gave
wny. The program of the day opened
with the parade ntten o'clock, in which
were the fire department, two bands, a
number of decorated floats and auto
mobiles, some of tho carnival attrac
tions, the girls of the flower mission
and a number of comic characters.
SThe parade prizes were awarded as
follows: Best business float W. W.
Birge Co., best decorated automobile
Mrs. Joseph Donegan and the girls'
flower mission, second best W. H. Mc
Donald, best comic feature A. A.
Schatz, second best P. H. Lonergan,
third best Ernest Cole.
Following the parade there were con
tests between the North Platte and
Gothenburg fire departments, the
visitors winning the hub and hub race
and the wet coupling contest, the locnj
team the dry coupling contest and the
water fight, which was a most spirited
one, was declared a draw.
v In the baby show there were more
than a half hundred entries, nnd the
judges hnd a rather difficult time in
awarding the prizes. They finally
awarded first prize to Paul Albert
Davis, the eleven months old son of
Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Dayis, and the
second to the little daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. John Burgner.
Tho special prizes offered to the
farmer bringing in the largest load of
people and the farmer appearing in the
parade with the best looking team,
went by default, no farmer contesting
for either.
The public wedding of Joseph Giese
and Mis3 Laura Sukraw, which took
place in the show window of the A. A.
Schatz Co. and the ceremony performed
by Judgo Grnnt, attracted a crowd of
several thousand people, only a small
part of whom could see the ceremony.
Following the wedding Mr. and Mrs.
Giese and their immediate friends were
served with a wedding dinner by Mr.
Hupfer at the Vienna, and later in the
day tho party returned to tb;eir home in
Maxwell. Through Mr. Schatz's gen
erosity 'tho couple was presented with a
bed room suit.
At ten in the torcnoon nnd nt four in
the ufternoon there were bnll games
between the Jocal nnd the Sidney
tenms. The visitors were too weak for
the North Platte players, the forenoon
game resulting in n score of fifteen to
fiye, the Sidneyites mnking all their
runs in the sixth inning. In the after
neon game the score was ten to two,
the visitors making two runs in the
sixth inning. In both games the visi
tors could have been shut out had the
local team desired this result. This
present North Platte team, formerly
one of the Mink league teams, is ap
parently much too strong for the earns
of western Nebraska, nnd if we nre to
have Bnnppy games the opposing teams
must be those of the stnte league or
the western league. Arrangements
are being mnde to have games with
teams from both these leagues.
When not onlookers at some event
furnished by the committee, the crowd
attonded the shows of the carnival com
pany, and through tho aid of this com
pany there was not a dull moment during
the day. In fnct it would be difficult to
arrange a Fourth of July program moro
varied than the one North Platte put up
for the visitois and her people, and the
committee in charge are entitled to
much credit for the satisfactory result
of their efforts. The program closed
with a nice display of fire works in the
evening.
It would be difficult to estimate cor
rectly the number of visitors in town,
but tome iden of the crowd can be
gained from thestntement that the two
lending restaurants served more than
two thousand dinnersund the dozen or
moro smaller en'ting houses had more
than they could accommodate, and hun
dreds took lunches from tho stands on
the streets.
To tho credit :o nlljf. can bo said
that during the day there wns very
little disorderly conduct and no fights.
Three men who took on more than thuj
could carry were put in tho hay nt the
jail bnrn nnd allowed to sleep it off, but
other thnn these no arrests were made.
Surprising Cure of Stomach Trouble.
Whoti you have trouble with your
stomach or chronic constipntion. don't
imagine that your case is beyond help
lust because your doctor fails to give
you relief. Mrs. G. Stongle, Plnlntlcltl.
N. J., writes, "For over a month pnst
I have been troubled with my stomach.
Everything I ate upset it terribly. One
of Chamberlain's advertising booklets
came to me; After reading n few of tho
cttors from people who had been cured
by Chamberlain's Tablets, I decided to
try them. I have taken nearly three
fourths of a package of them nnd enn
now eat almost everything that 1 want."

Eastern Trainmen
Authorize Strike.
A telegram from New York dated
July 5th says:
Officials of the Order of Railway Con
ductors ana Brotherhood of Railway
Trainmen were busy today completing
the count of the ballot of members on
the question ofa strike of 100,000 train
men and conductors on the eastern
railroads. The result of the vote will
be submitted to the railroads before it
is made public, but in anticipation of
the result Elisha Lee, chairman of the
railroad managers' committee, admit
ted today that the railroads had re
ceived advices giving the vote as over
whelmingly in favor of a strike If or
dered by the leaders.
The employes ask for an inerease of
about fifteen per cent in wages and
certain changes in working conditions. It
is generally believed that the contentions
between the men and the roads will be
compromised and a strike averted.
A Good Investment.
W. D. Magli, a well known merchant
of Whitemound, Wis., bought a stock
of Chamberlain's medicine so nB to bo
ablo to supply them to his customers.
After receiving them he was himself
taken sick nnd says that one small bottle
of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Dinirhoea Remedy wns worth more to
him thnn the cost of his entire stock of
these medicines. For sale by all dealers.
