When the time came for sunrise the nun obligingly hid itself behind the ouds and thus the cyclers had no heat to contend with. The roads were in elegant condition. Gibbon was made in an hour and twenty minutes, as no one cared to use themselves up at the start. A seven to eight mile gait was Kept up past sneuon, auu irequeni were the bu sts of admiration of the day the roads ami the trip generally. Beyond Shelton the rain had been heavy on Tuesday and the roads began to be bad in spots.

The single safety rider began to tire first, and the Hub man next. The pace was lessened to suit the feelings of the tired slitrht lunch helped out. From Alda to tho "Island" was a slow run with frequent mops, out UIU ClUWU Wrt UljlCWIllIlCU to make the trip. The road was sanely and wet in spots. Reaching the outskirts of Grand Island the par-.

The ball game at Grand Island yesterday was a triumph for Kearney. The first few innings did not look like it however, for after the first.

Kearney got no runs until the sixth. Grand Island took two in the first and one in the secondhand then" laid off their scorers until s'lu'other day! Kearney's battery of Harlan and Pickering was what was the matter with them. Kearney scot ped four runs in the sixtli and OLe in the eiirhtli. The Kearney ball club need never look Tor more hearty support Irom the grand stand than they had yesterday. Kearney people were there in droves, and they woke the echoes with uproarious applause.

A Committee Appointed to Visit the InrandeHreiit I. (imp Factory. Last evening a meeting of gentle men of prominent in the chamber of commerce and in electrical matters listened to a proposition from Mr. John Askin, representing J. V.

Shaeffer, of the incandescent lamp factory at Nebraska City. He stated that a plant such as it was desired to put in would cost about would have a capacity of a thousand lamps a day. About this would be tor a suitable building. Mr. Schaeffer wished Kearney citizens to form a stock com- pauy with $10,000 capital and give him $2,500 in stock for his interest and services in conducting the plant.

Mr-O'Brien-stated that if such a plant were opened here he would like to see a department for the repair of electrical apparatus. At present all armatures or other machinery must be sent at least as far east as Chicago and it adds greatly to the expense. Mr Askin said he would remove his shop, at present employing eight men to this city if the lamp factory was moved here. The shop would of course be enlarged as there was demand for it. The gentlemen at the meeting could of course take no definite action regarding the proposition of Mr.

Schaef fer, but they decided to get a committee to visit Nebraska City and investigate the lamp factory next week, and talk the matter over with Mr. Schaeffer. It is quite probable that if the committee reports favorably Kearney men will take hold of the matter. UANKIN FESS ARE SELUXIi SII.VEIiWAKK AND CLOCKS AT COST. Hun Over Hy the Cars.

The police received a telegram last night from Omaha, stating that one of two men killed by the cars at the metropolis carried a keyring with the name B. F. Valquadson, Kearney, Nebraska.

A Crowd of Boys Play With a Loaded Gun-The C.un (Ml While Held by Luther Col-well and Shoots the Hoy in the This afternoon a sad affair occurred which brings poignant grief into at least two homes, and put an end to the life of a ten-year-old boy. The facts as gathered by a Hi' re porter shortly after the occurrence were as follows: Mrs. M. K. Colwell uul daughter Maggie left home this tfternoon.

leaving the three youngest Colwell-boys- playing in a carpet tent iear Mrs. Colwell's house with Wallie and Arthur Filley. liefore long, the boys must have gone into the house uul gotten hold of three guns that were kept in the room adjoining the kitchen. The guns are all old ones uul but one of them was loaded. While handling the guns, this loaded one, held by Luther Colwell.

aged ten years, was discharged, the contents striking Arthur Filley in the side and back. Ihe boy tell in the coiner ot the kitchen, but must have been carried outdoors to the porch almost immedi ately, for Mis J. W. Kariis ran over immediately on hearing the report and found the boy weltering in blood on the back porch. -The boy-lived until ie was carried home, nearly a block away, when he died.

JiUther Colwell was unable to tell how the accident happened. He said he did noi see the Fillev bov when the gun went oil'. A younger brother was standing across the room and showed the reporter how Arthur filley was standing against the door post with his back halt turned when the fatal shot took ellect. As but one shot could be found in tho door the hoy must have received the whole charge. Hice Colwell, the older brother, of the Itoy that was shot and the youngest Col we'll boy were all present.

Both Luther Colwell and the younger brother first claimed that there was no cap on the gun, but the gun being brought, a freshly discharged musket cap was ound under the hammer. The "boys said they did not put the cap on nor see it. There was no quarrel, and there seems no other explanation of the sad affair than as an accident. Arthur Filley, the boy that was shot, was about ten years old, and was the son of J. D.

Filley, who has been working on the electric road. The family live in the house facing the railroad track, just back of W. L. Green's residence at the end of Twenty-third-st. The whole family are of course nearly heart-broken at the death of their boy, and the sound of their grief was enough to unman almost anyone.

Mrs. Colwell, mother of the boy who held the gun, is also terribly shocked and said she would rather it had been her boy that had been killed than that he should have been the cause of an other's death, The gun, an old muzzle loader, wound with wire at the breech, was taken charge of by Deputy Sheriff Weldin until the inquest, which will be held soon. The sad affair is but another commentary on the ofJiaving.il loaded gun in the house. An (fporatlc Kent. Next Wednesday evening, at the Model opera house, the Standard Opera company will open the season of opera with "Chimes of Normandy," with one of the finest troupes of star artists on the stage it being the reorganization of the California Opera company, who so delighted our people last winter with Said Pasha.
