About four hundred dollars have boon oxepended In placing the hall In prosentahlc ahnpe.

A Splendid Concert. JThp concert at the Kolth Friday ovcnlng given undor tho auspices of tho KnlghtB of Columbus, was largoly attto'nded and tho program was ron dored in a manner that brought forth hearty applause. Those appearing in tho numbers wore Miss Williams solo ist and Miss Shnrpless reader, of tho Catholic school at Hastings, Miss Rob hausen pianist, of this city, who Is both an Instructor and student at that school, Miss Trovlllo, soloist, of this cltyand Paul Harrington of Denver, a former North, Platto boy. Mips Rebhauson, by conscientious work hns become a finished plafalst, both In execution and oxprcsslon, and naturally her friends take prldo In hor progress. Miss Williams possesses a woll cultivated voice, tuneful, hor high notes aro easily reached, and hor ex pression and enunciation aro splen did. As a reader Miss Sharpless is vory "good, her selections Friday ov onlng covering a wldo range from tho humoruos to tho dramatic.

Paul Har rington is an artist, ills baritone volco being among tno best we have over heard. His selections wero re ceived with much enthusiasm by tho audience. A Victory for Rig Business. Tho decision of tho United States district court, holding rliat the United States Stool corporatlpn Is. not u. trust In' restraint of trado within the moan ing of tho Sherman law Is a victory for big business. Tho court holds that it is not tho sizo of tho concorn, but its power for harmful monopoly, that makes It amenablo to tho law. Horo Is tho moat of tho whole matter, too frequently entirely overlooked by tho critics of "big business." Tho court bays: "More bIzo or bigness of busi ness Is not necessarily a monopoly of business at tho oxponso or all others engaged In It." Tho demands of modorn lifo havo been mot by a dovolopment of Indus try along lines that havo boon revo lutionary In their effects, and yet but a natural rosult of evolutionary growth. All tho groat enterprises of tho ngo havo been built on a similar prlnclplo, tho combination of units for tho greator olllclency In production TM..I 1 M . - .i.jH(.uruunco hub iouowcu anu somo harmful oftccts liavo flown from thoso processes, until remedied from within or without. Courts havo Interfered, and not nlways wlsoly, as, for oxam plo, when tho Union Pacific was pre vented from purchasing tho Central Pacific. That tho Sherman law Is lnoffoctual when It comes to tho actual dissolution of hlg business combina tions is shown by tho Standard Oil and Tobacco caBes. Thoso "trusts wore dissolved, yet out of that segrega tion nroso a now arrangement of busl noss juBt as strong as boforc. Al though' nolthor of these combinations has been nblo to get a monopolistic control of Us Hue, neither has tho con suming public reaped any matorlal advantage from tho dissolution. Tho principal effect of tho decision in tho stool caso, though subject to . rovorsal or appeal, will bo to reassuro business men that they aro loss llkoly to bo hnmporcd In the pursuance of legltlmato enterprise, and tliat busl ncss need not suffer moroly becauso It is "big."

Bulletin of lleef Production The results of oxporlmental steor feeding carried on at tho Agricultural Exporlment Station from 1912 to 1914 recently published showed again that a ration of corn and alfalfa hay pro duces the cheapest gains of any rntlon used.

Beginning at somo Gate between Juno 15 th and Juno 30t, says today's Omaha Bee, a new tram will be run ovor tho Union Pacific. This will be a travel service Inaugurated by tho Great Western, tho Illinois Central ind tho St. Paul brancn of the North- westorn. These roads will bring sleepers Into Omaha, where they will bo made up as a train and run as n second section of train No. 19, which reaches North Platto at 8:15 in tho morning. This train will not do lo cal work. Tho now train means four additional engine crowB and two additional train crews out of North Platte. Exports of brcadstuffs for tho fiscal year ending Juno 30 will far exceed tho liberal mark of 300,000,000 bushels set at tho beginning and establish a now high record. The largest export previously noted wero 234,772,000 bushels for the year ending June 30, 1902. In ten months of the present year, ending April 30, tho clearances wero equal to 297,210,021 bushels, rep resenting a valuo of $374,851,384. For tho corresponding period a year ago tho exports of wheat and Hour wero equal to 1231,051,210 bushels worth $119,903,043. During April tho clfcar- ancos wore 29,18C,87C bushels against 7,001,318 a year ago. Tho May exports will bo about 25,000,000 bushels but tho clearances for Juno aro expected to snow a snarp reduction, tho total for tho year should be at least 23, 000,000 bushels ns compared with 145, 589,000 for tho preceding year. It goea without saying that tho European war Is responsible for this extraordi nary showing. Kearney Hub.

Heavy rains fell all over the state Thursday night,' some towns reporting as high as five Inches, which flooded tho streets to tho depth of two feet.

In the central part of tho stato high wind accompanied tho storm and at ono or two places small buildings wero blown down. As a result of Mayor Madgett's en forcement of tho Sunday closing law against barber shops and tho convic tion of two clothing dealers for run ning their stores on tho Sabbath, pe titions aro hi circulation for the clos ing of garages and cigar, drug and candy stores in Hastings.
