BASKETBALL PLAYERS
MAKE GOOD SHOWING.

The university basketball teams are
working hard for their game with the
Cheyenne Business college team at
the university on Saturday night.
Yesterday afternoon witnessed the
fiercest and fastest basketball game
that has ever been played in the gym
nasium. and il this clip is kept up.
Cheyenne will have to put up a Won
derful game to win. The final score
was 81 to 38 and the winning point
came from a foul while the opponent
was throwing for goal, counting one
point.
The progress Of the university teams
has been very noticeable. and had the
game with Cheyenne been held in
March instead Of this month the stu
dents would be confident of giving the
world "champions' the scare of their
lives. The encouraging thing is that
every man on both teams, except one,
scored at least one field goal. H. Hun.
ton and Corthell made Z. and D. Hun
ton and Wheeler 6 each. Fumbing Is
still a fault, but there is an improve
ment. There is every prospect Of a
redhot, biood-stirring game Saturday
night. 1t Is learned that the reserved
seats in the gallery are nearly all
gone. The reserved seats on the low
er floor will be on sale today at the
Red Cross pharmacy.

FOR UNTAGGED DOGS.

FOR UNTAGGED DOGS.
Marshal Sigman that I'M
tagged dogs have only two more days
of grace, as on the 10th he will begin
catching and killing those upon which
the tax has not been paid. The mar

to proceed in certain cases. Some
dogs upon which the tax has been
paid should not be allowed to run at

SO, and it would be a good thing for

proof, when the dangerous animal can
be killed as a public nuisance. There
are several such in the city.
