Harlan county is just now the

w
the arosiCAL eojrrEXTiox.
The week of bustle, of pleasure and
of song is over, arid tbo usual raeas-
I ure)f quietude prevails in our city.-
It wa3 th'e" first convention of that
character that has ever been held in"
Brownville, and, judging from the
satisfaction which we hear expressed
concerning it, wfe think, as we hope,
that it will not be the last. It was,
without doubt, a most splendid suc
cess in every particular.
It was most admirably arranged,
successfully conducted and entirely
. satisfactory in its results. Whatever
doubts were first entertained by those
who planned it as to the co-operation
OI" our citizens in carrying it to a buq-
cessful issue, were soon happily dis-
t" """ -ne imerai nospitailty
and patronage which was shown is
commendable.
, he Convention continued four
da' commencing on Tuesday and
: ending on Friday. Special
attention
i BO .. . . w - , ,
was given by Prof. Perkins to voice
culture and elocution. To sing con
czpres8io is the grand ultimatum of all
musical efforts, and to his end was
the instruction directed. We have
yet to hear of the Jfst person who at
tended the rehearsals that was not
perfectly satisfied with the method
aud results of Prof. Perkins' instruc
tion. He has a happy manner of con
ducting a class, is indefatigable in his
labors attd will get more work from a
class than any instructor we have ev
er seen.
The concerts given on Thursday
and Friday evenings iisidefrom being
entertaining, were an exhibition of
what a master hand can do with such
miscellaneous elements as are thrown
together in a musical convention.
Prof. H- S. Perkins has already a
wide reputation as a writer of music
and as an instructor. He has pub
lished several books, among which
are the "Advance," "Song Echo,"
"River of Life," and "Headlight."
As a conductor of musical conven
tions he is too well known in this
part of the country to need any ad
vertisement. Prof. J. J. Kimball has a deserved
and enviable reputation as a basso so
loist. His assistance contributed
largely to the success of the Convention,-and
to the substantial merits of
the Concerts. He is a leading in
structor in vocal music in Boston, and
is also supervisor of musical instruc
tion in the public schools at Manches
ter, New Hampshire.
Miss Julia H. Whitman,- of Leav
enworth, Kansas, a sister of Charles
N. Whitman, of this city,- assisted
much in the Convention by so effi
ciently presiding at the piano. She
is, without doubt, one of the finest
pianists in the country.

The names of two or three have
been lost. The gross proceeds 6f the
Convention were $314.36, and the ex
penses $296.3, leaving a balance of
$18.00, which will be donated to the
musical interests d the city.
The first Convention held in Brown
ville will not soon bti forgolten, and
the stimulus it has given to the musi
cal element of the city will probably
culminate in the' organization of a
.musical association. Such Conven
Itioris should recur annually.

valuable assistance which he has ren

DISINFECTANTS:
Mr. Editor : As about all the slack
ed lime about town has been disposed
of for disinfectant purposes, and some
who are' fn "the ifmbusiness frave
sold to th'eciys lot worthless stuff,
and eva'ded a dead loss thereby, it
might not be amiss to state to the cit
izens, that as a disrnfectrfntold slack
ed lime is hardly as good as that
m'uen fresh earfeb, and that if they have
about their premises noisome places,
it would Be well to use either fresh
unslackec lime or chloride of lime to
do away with"' them. The Cholera you
know, is on the other" stde of the riv
er, so clean up.

In this city, August 2Glh, 1S73, at
i the residence of J. S. HetJMl, by Rev.

of Omaha, to Miss Ella Beeves, of
Brownville.
With the above notice came a boun

"Do they miss tne at home," and
"Come where my love lies dream

from in front of Mrs. Berkley's show
window ti-here he talked of "trails,"
"cTilgnons," and other things with
which young men are not supposed
to be at all familiar. But we guess
that by this time he has recoverad his
equanimnity, being licensed to go
-: 17 it
wnere his Jove lies dreaming. In
! consideration iSt the commissera'tion
havfng stffong In contemplation, yet
without participation, the bright an
ticipations and joyous expectations
whibh, without defalcation, always
meet with realization upon the con
sumation of the married relation, we
from our soul congratulate him and
say "c transit gloria celebii.
