practice are taken into consideration.
The CLUB has played Hastings twice, once
at home and the return match at Hast

off victorious. The Lincoln club also suf.
fered signal defeat at its hands some

consideration, the club hopes to make a
better record next season, when coaple

DAVITp'S COMING.
The Local Committees Making Ar
engagements for the Event.

FanSements iOr tne Event.
A meeting of the joint committee from
the E. NJ. A. and A o. II. societies, for
the purpose of making arrangements for
reception and lecture of Michael Davitt,
was held last evening at j, E. Riley s
office.
There were present Messrs. Donovan,
Graves, O'Malley, Minahan, Brennan,
Smyth and Mcmahon.
1t was announced that Mr.. Davitt
would lecture here on the Goth inst, and
that the annex of the exposition building
had been secured tor the occasion.
1t was decided ;hat, in response to re-
quests from the neighboring towns, that
tickets be forwarded to leading citizens
in Papel!ion, Elkhorn, Fremont, Blair,
Calhoun, Council Bluffs and PlattsmouUh
1t was also agreed to invite the leading
clergymen and editors of this city to at
tend the lecture.
To-day one of the committees will go
to Council Bluffs for the purpose of MAX
ing arrangements for number of the
citizens of that place to be present on the
night in question.
This is the first time that Michal Davitt
has lectured
IN this country where price of admis-
sion was charged. And yet, few of the
the Irish leaders are more in need, and
certainly none of them are more worthy
OF a liberal response. Although gifted
by nature and endowed with attainments
which might have secured competence
in any line he might have followed, Mr..
Davitt is poor man. He has given his
his time and almost his life to the cause
he represents, But advanced years have
cautioned his friends TO insist upon his
looking out for the future. Accordingly
he has consented to the present lecture
tour. Mr.. Davitt's lecture will be the
most able, and at the same time interest.

has yet been delivered in Omaha.

From a good position it looks to us that

its opinion of the Yankton convention
"From first to last the whole business
was q fizzle, every point that could be

South Dakota got the best of it in botl
