SAME teams won
AGAIN LAST NIGHT
SOUTH SIDE BARAcA TEAM AND
COMMERCIAL COLLEGE CON.
TINUE TO WIN.
Standing Of the Teams.

The third series of games in the Cit!
Basket Ball league were played at the
Y, M. C. A. last night. The games were
fast and interesting. The South Ottum
wa Baraca boys and the Commercial
college quintet continued to win games
with ease. These teams clash two
weeks from last evening and interest
is manifested in the outcome OF the
battle.
The first game last night between the
Company G team and the Iowa Success
college was a victory for the former
by the score Of Is to 10. This game
was probably the closest Of any of the
contests last evening. Oscar Nelson
who played in the middle for the
guardsmen was too much for the school
boys Tate and Kendall played good
game for the losers.
In the third contest the Baraca boys
ran away with the John Morrell office
force team by the overwhelming score
Of rs to 4. The churchgoers have prov
ed too much for the other teams since
the starting Of the league. At the end of
the first half the score was IS to l in
favor Of the Baptists. Rodgers, McEl-
roy and w. Mcclure played excellent
games for the winners.
The Commercial business college
basket ball five won the second game
over the Plymouth Congregational
team by the score Of IS to s. The col
lege team displayed some wonderful
team work and the victory was an
easy one. McCarroll Of the CONNER
cial college and Cook of the Congrega-
tional team played great games.

until the act was forced to discontinue.
The audience became alarmed Jeswein
was demonstrated with, but kept right on
laughing. Finally IT was that he could
not stop. and he removed to The Emer-

aueli his, tickled risibiities, Jeswein still
laughed for hours. "ha. ha ha'ed." and

were given him. still he laughed. More
narcotics were administered. but the echoing
sound OF his wailing and exhausted vocals
still strained into mirth continued until he
became so weakened that death may result.
