Tho April report says that one North Platte hen stands .seventh among tho 410 hens In the number of eggs laid to date. -tot- Attorney E. E. Carr attended court at Grant yesterday. Skovgaard, tho Danish violinist, who is to appear at tho Christian church noxt Tuesday stands over six feet, three inches in height anu weighs nearly three hundred pounds. Physically he is a worthy decondent of that powerful race of Vlcklngs whose commanding statues caused a feeling of awe oven to the sturdy Romans of Caesar's time. Conform ing to tho proyorablo good nature of most largo people, Skovgaard is also a most likable man and make friends wherever he goes. But within his powerful frame Is secreted a more potent force than any which the ex. erclse of muscle alone would produce It is tho power to interpret the soul of music, and from tho first stroke or tho bow tho strings of his matchless i Stratllvarius violin, all sense of form and size gradually give way to a de lightful sense of rhythm, melody, music. Standing On the stage this colossal Dane is only music. Each mpvement of the body, while ho Is playing, is nothing but music, ana the expression on his face tells you plainly that ho is far away from you deep In "tho land of tunes." Skov gaard comes to you not as a musical novice. His training under tho great est masters of Europe stamp him as "a consumato musician, tho finlshea polished, purposeful." Moreover, Skovgaard is an artist whose powei has had time to mature and to gain those finer qualities of balance ana resource of interpretation which can como In no other way than by tho steady developement of tho musician hiraslf in devotion to his inborn and chosen art.
