Mr.. Weyhe was recalled and said that he
was in favor of restricted immigration as u
partial relief for tho labor troubles. He also
favored more strict enforcement of The
autl-contract labor law, which, he said, was
being evaded if not openly violated.
Thomas Mellon, banker of this city, tes-
tlhed that tho county seldom had u sheriff
who would do his duty, fearing he might
offend some one. The same applied to the
governor and the legislature.

being taken 10 Homestead he met them at

IL was vet any ones game, notwithstand-

positions with alt the fierce determination
that marked the inauguration OF the strife.
The captains were both on the alert and
urged their men TO strain every nerve and
fiber in tho cause of their Haunting colors.
Iowa started on like a cyclone and gained
fifteen Yards, when by n hold-in on the line,
they gave up tho ball.to Nebraska. The In.
furies that necessitated the retirement OF
sawyer and Lnrrabee, both model athletes,
crippled the lads from over The bridge un-

might, they could not stem the rush OF the
en- mboldened Nebraskans, who with big

peared 10 be fit to tackle any team In the
country.
A touch down followed by goal would tie
tho score ana the hitherto noisy Prohibition
rooters were as calm and sedate as II at
tending prayer meeting. F'lippin, with the
Nebraska cohort at his brawny back, was
gradually but surely approaching the coveted
line.
A sudden avalanche OF sound burst upon

Then Oliver redeems himself.
He kicks a goal and saves Nebraska from

That kick tied the score, 10 to 10.
And thus 1t remained.

At the cessation OF active operations the

swarming with whooping men ana screaming

1t takes to tell 1t.
E'iippin, the colored Nebraskan, played a
grand game for the locals while Pace and

tendent Sullivan of the Illinois Central rail
road. A grievance committee of five men,
bers, representing the conductors and brake
men OF the road, is laborng with the super
intendent in an effort to arrange schedule
for the next year and to ADJUST several minor
differences. There has been not q little mys-
terry connected with the meeting. The
officers OF the road and the members of the
committee desire to keep the ouiect of the
meeting secret, but from facts learned last
night IT Is safe TO say that upon the result OF
the conference depends the question as to
whether there shall be peace and harmony

and evening. The play is a fair type Of the
modern melodrama. Like all other pieces OF

the story of the triumph OF innocence aud the
downfall OF vice. There is good deal of
humor scattered through the piece and some
very clever specially work, which serves TO
relieve tho seriousness and to keep the
audience In good hlmor. The story
in brief is that Antonio Lazette. hav.
ing married an orphan and squandered
her fortune, seeks to bo rad OF her in order
TO marry Grace May brook, a brilliant woman
with whom be is manly in love. His wifo
escapes from the insane asylum. where he
has had her confined, is found by Rhinegold
aud taken 10 Northcote's studio, where La
zette finds her, aud to fres himself kills her
and so arrankes matters that Northcote is
suspected of the crime and Is compelled to
flee. Lazette arranges his marriage with
Grace but she deserts him at tho last mo-
ment aud takes refuge with friends. She Is
discovered ana kidnapped by LlzeLte and his
