The advance guard OF the subjects from

200 people. who alighted and started for
the business center of the city. The Mis-

extra passengers and the Burlington
morning train also had a goodly Increased
load.
The Union Pacific will run swo specials
| from Omaha after the parade Wednesday
night, one going to Columbus and the
other to Stromsburg. The Northwestern
| will run specials to Sioux City. to Nor

1t may be possible wednesday after

up in a body to march through the carnival
grounds. Some four years ago during the
"shirt-tail" parade Of the university stu

over the protests OF the management. only
one OF the showmen was injured and not
more than twenty students had to see the
doctors. 1t was d good-nstured scrap,

to customer several quarters with a dol
