B | I SIXTEENTH YEAR. McCOOK , RED WILLOW COUNTY , NEBRASKA , FRIDAY EVENING. DECEMBER 3 , 1867. NUMBER 29 I
K fe W Band Contests.
K f m Thc us5cal contest of the Festival of
B \fe Mountain and Plain and the verdict of
/ fJt ' the jury composed of Dean Howell , and
' § | Professers Richter and Lehman , was a
; i great surprise for every man who under-
jP5 { stood music. The rules of the contest
BlL jL 1 were ahsolutely wrong and against com-
Hp Ml In a contest of this kind the music
L I w must be selected by the judges and all
K 1 W bands must play the same selection.
H X # 3 You cannot judge very well o band when
KIN tne same co"ies with a bclection of its
V \ aPN own , practised for months before the
* m contest , for the only purpose of getting
W a nrize. The musicians must give a
jE proof of their ability by playing a new
! J | piece , and the leaders will show their
Jr , real talent and ability by the interpre-
1 tntion of something absolutely new for
M \ '
H - \j I suggest in the interest of music to
ft I * do that next year.
V / J1 * No band in the contest was perfect by
H \ \ \ the standpoint of the interpretation. But
B / L' as they were not professional musicians
V \ in the contest , we cannot be very exigent
H , • i ' on that account.
H / ' The best band in the contest was un-
V \ $ T doubtedly the McCook. The interpreta-
B { * tion of the "Semiramide" of Rossini was
T j . | L' imperfect in certain particulars. In one
Bv ( 7 ' point , for instance , they played andante ,
H v % s while it was necessary to play allegro.
B J g | But the execution was generally good ,
H S a and all instruments were absolutely and
H 1 i& harmoniously in tune. The first prize
Htf H wll ) no doubt would be given to the
B | M McCook band.
HS % The second band in the contest was
1 < | ) Las Vegas Military baud , composed of
Hi\ only seventeen pieces. This band played
H § the overture of the "Bohemian Girl"
B \ ffi v/lt x Kreat delicacy. In the last part the
B § 4fs as Vegas musicians don't give the exact
Bf p interpretation but they played absolutely
B I 1 iQ tune and in tempo.
"
B'J , "V I Third for merit in the contest was the
B < ' " Colorado Midland. The only fault of its
* 1 members was an excessive nervousness ,
I . / and I am sure the leader will agree with
_ j | me on that.
Bv ° * ue Telluride band I would give nG
1 ( prize at all. Mr. Jones , the leader ,
knows very well that what I say is the exact -
Lfp | | act truth. The Telluride band has , per-
V. H haps , the best reputation and has , per-
Rhaps , the credit of being the best band
_ . in Colorado. But I am compelled to
• t * < - judge this band by the rendition of Ros-
' * mini's "William Tell. " I realize that
Hossini's "William Tell" is very difficult
music. But any consideration of merit
on the interpretation arid on the execu
tion of the music of the great Italian
composer is absolutely out of order.
While the Telluride band was playing ,
the flute rendered wrongly the variations
i and went out of tune and tempo , helped
in that by the first clarinet and by the
baritone , spoiling everything and caus
ing trouble to the full band. That was
sufficient to deprive the Telluride band
1 of the prize. In another country in
France , in Italy or in Germany , for in
stance in such an occasion the band
would be terribly hissed.
Music is the most international of all
Bi ' M ar s > au has nothing to do with patriot-
B ; Mt ism. If a band of another state wins
Kf % 'Hfirst prize why not give it to the
B ! ty ( winner. It would be a good proof of the
B 1 serenity of mind of the Colorado people
B In to S've the prize to a band of another
B 3 * state , if this band is really entitled to
B ) ' have it.
B V I I wish the Telluride band will win the
Bl I. rst prize next j'ear. But in this con-
B \ J&1 .test with or without the consent of
k J W Judges Howell , Richter and Lehman
k # the winners of the contest were McCook ,
' \ -I < as Vegas and Colorado Midland.
M $ \ This only for the truth.

A New Record for Speed.
Another phenomenal run was ground
out on the Union Pacific , Monday , in
which two mail coaches of the fast mail
were brought 520 miles into Council
Bluffs in 540 minutes. Owing to the
burning of a bridge at Medicine Bow ,
west of Cheyenne , the fast mail reached
the latter part at 7:28 a. m. , instead of at
2:40 a. m. , or four hours and forty-eight
minutes late. In order to catch the Bur
lington fast mail east at Council Bluffs it
had to reach here before 6 p. m.
"Taking the two mail coaches.it started
out to make the trip. On the way there
were something like a dozen stops made ,
and there was a change of locomotives at
each division. Two minutes were lost at
Julesburg waiting for connections , one
minute at Kearneyfive at Columbus and
on the run between North Platte and
Grand Island one engineer named Fred-
erickson was unable to maintain the fur
ious pace , inflicting a loss of five min
utes , whereupon he was supplanted at
Lexington by a young and huskyjengin-
eer named Dickinson , who regained the
lost time. The train was due at Council
Bluffs at 4:45 and it reached there at
5:47 p. m. , an hour and two minutes late
and with thirteen minutes to the good
for the Burlington connection. The ac
tual running time was over a mile a
minute.
All the regular stops were made and
one extra , au air brake hose burst and
had to be repaired at the expense of sev
eral minutes of time. It is necessary to
reach Council Bluffs for connections or
pay a heavy fine to the government. It
was a most remarkable run against time.
The most wonderful burst of speed was
shown on the hundred mile stretch be
tween Grand Island and Ames. This was
covered in ninety-three minutes actual
time. From this must be deducted five
minutes for the delay with the broken
hose at Columbus , making the time
eighty-eight minutes , including all regu
lar stops , or more than sixty-eight miles
an hour. Omaha correspondence Lin

The Merry Minstrels.
The Afenfifd opera house was crowded ,
Tuesday evening , to hear the minstrel
entertainment given by local talent.
The entertainment was fair , but not up 1
to the usual high standard of similar
and other entertainments put on the
boards by our excellent home talent.
The first part was enjoyed and appreci
ated , but the second part ( barring the
musical sketch by Messrs. Beach and
Strauahan which was meritorious but
too long ) might better have been
omitted.
The costumes were ptetty and attract
ive , the blending of blonde and darkey
accentuating the scene.
The music by the Pythian orchestra
was good , but rather loud for the solos
and choruses.
The ladies of the cemetery committee
are to be congratulated on the liberal re
ceipts , which were in the neighborhood
of a hundred and fifty dollars.

On Wednesday of last week , Rev. E J.
Vivian of Box Elder spoke the Words
uniting the hearts and destinies of Mr.

horn , two of Box Elder precinct's ster
ling and very estimable young people.
The ceremony was performed at the res
idence of the bride's parents , Mr. and
.
Mrs. James Kinghorn , in the presence of
relatives and near frferids of the con
tracting parties. A wedding feaSt of the
most attractive particulars followed the
ceremony. The young folks were hand
somely remembered in the way of gifts
both useful and ornamental. The affair
was replete with happiness. The Trib
une adds its most cordial congratula
tions and heartiest well-wishes.
Smashed Two Panes of Glass.
E. H. Dqan's delivery team ran away ,
last Saturday , smashing two of the large
panes of glass in the north side of The
Cash Bargain Store in their wild career.
They started from in front of the Wilcox
grocery store , and in turning into Dennison -
nison street struck the store front with
the above result. In the collision both
horses were thrown from their feet , and
bystanders held them until they were
released from their tangled condition.
The damage is confined to the panes of
glass , the horses escaping with slight
injuries.

Charles H. Hamilton Married.
The following information is gleaned
from the Brookhaven ( Miss. ) Times : At
eight o'clock tonight Mr. Charles H.
Hamilton , the upright and successful
young business man , and Miss Lillian
Cooke , one of Brookhaven's sweetest and
most modest belles , will be united in
marriage at the residence of the bride's
parents. The ceremony will be perform
ed by Rev. Charles Oberschmidt , and
will be very private , only the near rela

No couple ever started their life to
gether in Brookhaven with more hearty
good wishes than will these popular
young people. Possessed of a sterling
character.the groom counts as his friends
all who have met him in either a busi
ness or a social way. The bride is the
personification of all that is admirable
and lovely in woman's character , and
will be a true wife to a loyal husband.
The Times , in common with a host of
friends , wishes for them the happy ful
fillment of their fondest anticipations on

The Imperial Quartet.
The Imperial Male Quartet and Cou-
cert company o 'f Chicago will give an ,
entertainment in the Cougregational
church next Friday evening , December
10th , under the auspices of the Christian
Endeavor society. Mr. J. A. Parks , the
composer , is at the head of this com
pany , and it is highly recommended by
the church societies of Iowa and North
eastern Nebraska. Our citizens are sure
of being highly entertained.
The Fremont ( Neb. ) Tribune says :
"The concert given last night at the
Congregational church by the Imperial
Quartet was a highly enjoyable musical
event. There was a good audience pres
ent to greet the company. It was not
only large but was likewise enthusiastic ,
and paid the performers the rare tribute
of encoring the first number. The Im
perials present a varied programme that
brings out to excellent advantage the
versatility of the company. The rendi
tions of the male quartet were perhaps
the most enjoyable numbers last night ,
though the work of Mrs. Cowan , accom-
ist , and Mr. Tout , trombone soloist , was
of a very high order. The whistling
quartet number and the Zobo response
to the encore were novelties , the appie-
ciation of which was shown with thunderous -
derous applause. "
Annual Temperance Meeting- .
Au annual , union temperance meeting
was held in the Baptist church , Sunday
afternoon last , under auspices of the
W. C. T. U. , and Mrs. Traver presiding.
Similar meetings were held on that day
all over the world where the union has
gained a foothold. Rousing addresses
were made by Rev. John Foster of Cam
bridge and Rev.C. P. Evans of Arapahoe.
Many others took brief parts. It seemed
to be the general desire that some active
work be done in the temperance work in
this city. The attendance was smaller
than should have been present. No effort
was made to organize a W. C. T. U. , al
though there seems to be a demand for
such an organization here.

The Old Soldiers' Annual Bean Supper
