Promises to Be Good
tFrom a Staff Correspondent.

Lincoln. July 3.-(Special. There
appears to be no famine in the auto
mobile crop, judging from the rush of
applications in the office of Secretary
OF State Pool for license numbers. In
the month of June the office issued
1914 licenses for automobiles and $50
for motorcycles.
Up to July SO,os9 licenses had
been issued for automobiles and 1896
for motorcycles. The expenses of
getting out these licenses amounted
to only $7l9.47, for the month.
Cash receipts for the month Of June
were $40,44l.66, as against $30,05l.3l

Will Be on the Level.
There is one thing certain, however
the match will be on the dead-level
There is no speculation over that
Stecher's reputation for integrity has
become irreproachable ever since he
began to take all active interest in the
game. Lewis has been working too
hard athis Dietz club camp for the
eyes of suspicion to be turned his way
And Gene Melady, who is staging the
affair, is guarantee that is indisputa.
BILE, Since he staged the Stecher- Cut
Ter bout, just year ago, the name OF
Melady has become synomous with
honest sport throughout the entire
country. And Gene has given US his
assurance that the match today will
be on the square, and that if anything
shady at all OCCURS he will ring down
thee urtain.
1t is estimated that over $4,000 per-
sons will view the match this after
noon. Last night Dan Gaines esti-
mated that 10000 tickets had already
been purchased. 1t will unquestion-
ably be the largest crowd that ever
