Lincoln is tfoliitf to make an attempt
to celebrate a safe and wane Fourth of
July with W. J. llryan as orator. Lin

Ih supposed to mean one without much
fireworks.
The senate InvestlKallnK committee
finds Captain Smith responsible for
the 'Jitanlo disaster Inasmuch as
Captain Smith is not able to control
any delegates from bis present loca

gress to take.
An effort will be made to turn the
Klkbont river from its old bed seven

l'bilip O. Parmalee, known as the
Bafest aviator in tbe business and
who for some time past has been in
tbe employ of the Wright Bros., plung
ed to bis death from u distance of 100
feet in the air at North Yakima,
Washington, last Saturday afternoon.
Aviator Parmalce's death makes a
total of sixteen that have occured to
men in that profession over the wot Id
aince January l.lth of the present
year and it is safe to say that many
more lives will be sacrillced before the
mystery of successful aerial navigation
is solved.
Tho following, which is going the

Opera Company among the -most sought after
Chautauqua attractions. The excellence of their programs is
based primarily upon the quality of the voices of its personnel
voices of much more than ordinary range, jvell cultivated and
carefully coached in the style of programs they render. Their
programs embrace scenes from the Popular Opejras, in costume;
scenes from the Grand Operas, in costume; Gypsy scenes;
Sailor scenes; selections from the Oratorios; Sacred selections,
etc. We believe the aim of this attraclion is exactly in line
with the present-day demand from committees and audiences
everywhere.

Every electrical engineer that has
viited our light plant and investigat
ed its equipment has said that a con
siderable saving could be accomplish
ed by Installing clcctiic pumps for our
wator system. Many even go so far as
to say that it will cut the operating
expenses in two We fully appreciate
the condition of ourclty finances aud
there may not be tho funds nvallable
at the present time to make this
change but as soon as conditions will
warrant the expenditure of a little
mote money we are satisfied that
the electric pumps will come. We are
heartllv In favor of any change that
will effect a saving of operation and
wo believe that the judgment of these
electrical engineers should be accept
ed and put into practice as soon as
possible.
A lady called our attention the
other day to the Irrcspoiislveness of
Hod Cloud audiences. She said it
pained her to see an audience sit
apparently i nil I lie rent, while The Star
Spangled Banner was sung. It is not
from tho lack of patriotic feeling that
the people arc so slow lo testify to
their appreciation of tho national
hymn. Kather it is the icsult of a
loiiy course of repression of the show
of emotion until somebody takes the
lead. The Chief believes in applause
by the audience, the more of it the
better, liven in church services a
lecoroij; applause J expcsslon by
the audience of its sympathy with the
MMstker. iU appreciation, of the music
would only quicken the interest of till.
There is nothing more stimulating to
unity of feeling in the audience than
some appropriate manifestation, of
pleasure with "flic performer. It is
a good thing to avail ourselves of
every opportunitv to evince that we
are of one heart Ml loyalty to the flag,
in approve of our country's glory.
