When you think how stinng Is tliu prejudice In this country of ourM ngnlnst the glided trappings of loynlty, against show and glit ter of nil kind, nnd how that one Idea, so characteristic of American civilization that of practical utility hits swept almost every thing beforo it, much that lu beautiful be cause it is drcnud non-essential by tliu modern vandals w ho nru olfui ing up tliu best treasures of nrtmid Is-unty in thu laud on tho alter of materialism who mo doing their utmost to rob us of tlio Ideal and to miku us bow down before thu shibboleth of n sordid practicality when you think of all this, Isn't it a little strange that tho Marino band should have escnjied thu reformers clutch.! This band Is maintained nt tlio public ox penso and it's nolo duty is to gladdeu tho em s of thu occupants of tho U'blto House. Tliu band occupies an exactly similar place to that of tho trained orchosti as which mo to bo found in almost every foi uigu court. In it's gay apparel uml tho position it holds it does indeed savor of royolty and yet It is suf fered to exist. Happily tho fanatics who tiro brnvo enough to decry tliu Mai ino 'land, aro few nnd every Amei lean ought to (eel proud that it is distinctively American Institution; that it is a national concern. The Marino bund U one of tho Hnest in tliu woild. It looses nothing by del Ivlng Its mpport from a democratic government. In it aro gutheied the most competent musicians that can bu found nnd Phillip Bousn, thu director, hits spread Its fame fnr nnd wide. The concert moro than answered the ex pectations of tho immense audience which packed the opcrn house. It recalled tlio ap pearance of Strauss and the Vienna orches tra and artistically considered, Sousr sunVr ed little by comparison w Ith the Waltz King. In its way the fumed band" wus fully equal to tho much vaunted orchestra, nnd thu al most perfect harmony was a palpable sur prlso to many of tliu auditors not familiar with tbo capabilities of a Qllmoioor u Sousa. Tho program was skillfully urrunged so as to please all clases and thoru was no one present who could not appreciate at least a portion of tho musio. The pcrforman co wns an emphatic, artistic triumph, and It is sur prising that tho audience should hnvo been so reserved. Accustomed to receiving veri table ovations in other cities, thu coldness of the Lincoln peoplo must havo furred unpleas antly on the musicians, and left a not very high impression of our appreciation.

Lincoln, however, has as usual proven contrary to this rulo and has given all good companies big business. Lincoln Is considered by theat rical eoplu ono of thu best show towns in America Tho most lmKrtant announcement uncut new opera housu schemes is that made by Mr. McHeynolds of tho Funke. He snys that 25,O0O or 30,000 will bu expended lu Im provements ut his houso tills summer nnd that when tho fall soison okihs tlio Funke will bo practically a nuw house. This looks reasonable. Circuses will Infest the west to a greater extent next season than ever heretofore.

Unity Is Sick, The woeful expression of n Dos Moines teamster's countenance showed his deep anx iety was not entirely without cause, when ho enquired of n druggist of the same city what wus best to give a baby for a cold.

V Why Is snow white) nskod n young man nulling u group of others, uml then followed u vui lety of giiss.s, while several wont hon est enough to plo id Ignorance. The fact of tho matter Is snow is not white. Snow bus been known to l(Mk bhio when tlio sunshine struck It ut u pjrthuliir tingle. Likewise scientists havu seen snow that was appir ently pink. White light is u combination of seven different colois. Snow has ciystals hundreds of forms of them and they rolled tho seven lays of tho spectium in such n manner that they are combined Into Ahltu light. Snow npH-uis to bo white because It ic licet h white light. Homo clover people maintain that nothing but light his color, but us u matter if convenience wo attribute to each object that color which It iviUcti, or In other words which It appears to hnve. Some of these smart peoplo defy us to prove that wo aro living, but wo plain, seven-day-iu-thesweo'c jiooplo can take the good old or thodox beliefs on these common things of every-iluy jf0( ami wo wj ivo fUtu ag long. The other day a couple of gentlemen were discussing tho Itinerary system of tho Meth odist church, which tells every preacher of that denomination to "move on" ut least once in every three years. Ono of them told of a somewhat similar plan, although on u restricted scale, that wns being tried bv a fow churches in other denominations over In KuroH Wo would call It uu "exchungu" of pulpits, for tlmt Is nil it Is, except that it Is doi.o with regularity overy year and lasts longer than thu oidiuary exchungu. Bup Ksu that Dr. Curti-'s should exchange pul pits with soiuii equally good preacher of Den ver, or He v. Gregory with soinu Congrega tional brother from Kansas City, each for a month. Ono can Imagine that it might bo n refreshing change for both the ministers and tliecoiigirgutioiis, and that, too, without any reflection upon either. Tlio beuellts of tills sort of thing tiro too obvious to need enum eration, and if it could bo done systemati cally every six months or year it might bo made u valuable feature of modern chinch work. A new comer was lamenting thu fact Sun day uveuing that there wns no place to goto for amusement. He came leceutly fiom New York and formerly lived in Ilerllu, the Prussian capital. "Ilerllu Is thu place for n young man to enjoy life," ho suld, "but I really cannot uppiove the mode of life over there.

A few of them hnvo regular photographers de elope their negatives, but the genuine enthusiasts insist on doing ail their own work fiom start to finish ju taking ami making photo graphs lu the fullest sense of the woul. One of the dllllculties they have to encounter Is the getting of u suitable dnik loom, and just now there Is talk among them of combining to rent and equip some central rxim lu the business part it tho city. Poihaps this wll be tho llrst step to u broader organl. ition, and when that comes peihapt our amateur photographers will deign to let their fi lends enjoy the fruits of their labois.
