"I quite realize that the tone of the
Ohickering piano is finer and more
beautiful than can be found in the
pianos of nny other maker , but I canno
see why this should be ; I cannot under
stand why the Obickeiing should be
alone in this delightful quality , " said a
recent purchaser.
Unconsciously this lady repeated thi
old question of the whole piano industry
for every manufacturer in America for
many decades past has been trying to
discover the secret of the wouderfn
Ohickering tone. Small fortunes have
been expended on experiments with the
Idea of "equalling the Ohickering , " bu
no manufacturer jias been successful in
the attempt. It has now come to bo nl
most a recognized conclusion by thought
fnl piano men thnt it is a hopeless tnsk
They cost a little moro money than
other makes yet are so popular that the
great factories in Boston are unable to
supply the demand , having on thei
books orders for over 1,000 of their new
style A and others which they will no
be able to ship before next December
yet the purchasers are willing to wai
for them.
We sell them direct from the factory

II. L. Bnydor received a message thi
morning informing him of the death o
Mrs. Bnyder'B mother at Piqua , Ohio
which occurred yesterday. Mrs. Suydor
was at her old homo , having been sum-
inoued by a mesflngo announcing the
serious illness of her mother.

Tracy & Darlaud negotiated the Bale
f 720 acres of Pierce connty land , com-
> riBing two improved farms. The con-
{ deration was $22,200 and purchasers
were prominent German farmers of
'ohrjson connty. They will take pos-
osBion of their newly acquired property
he first of next March and it is probable
hat they will be followed to this sect Ion
f the state by several more of their
neighbors.
Many small boys have formed the
habit of throwing clods at people as
hey pass , and so frequently is this done
hat it is becoming a good deal of a
nuisance. AH an instance of what
might come of this practice , Millie
Bridge was walking down Fourth
treet this morning , and when near the
Baptist church a band of urchins commenced
mencod throwing clods at her , one of
them striking her in the chest. The
blow hurt her quite bndly , although it
was not at all serious. Children should
> e taught better manners.
The Petersons finally succeeded in se
curing a good attendance to their vaud
eville entertainment at the Auditorium
nit night and filled the house by re
ducing the admission fee to a flat rate
of ten cents to all to any part of the
lonse. They presented a very credit
able entertainment and it is probable
that a largo number of them will attend
the performance tonight at an admis
sion of 20 and 10 cents. The serpentine
aance witn coioreu ngnc , cnecc uy tne
female impersonator last evening was
one of the meritorious features.
Dr. F. M. Sisson returned lost evening
from Lincoln , where , as a trustee , he
attended the commencement exercises
of Wesleyau university. He reports
this , one of the youngest Methodist in
stitutions of the west , in a very pros
perous condition. Dr. Sisson remained
over a day in Lincoln to be present at
the commencement of the state univer
sity. He states that there were , from
the several departments , 208 graduated.
Norfolk has its share , not only in num
bers , but in distinguished positions of
honor as well. Among these was the
commission , at the hands of the gover
nor , of captaincy in the state militia
organization upon A. Kimball Barnes.
The Lincoln auditorium was crowded
to its full on commencement day to
listen to Booker T. Washington , L. L.
D. , deliver the oration , the subject be
ing , "The Race Problem. " None were
disappointed but all' were inspired to
higher ideals of intellectuality , morality
and patriotism. One of the most sub
limely pathetic scenes was the closing
act. Ex Governor Thayer was pre
sented to the chancellor who , in the
name of the university , conferred on
him as a scholar , soldier , statesman and
patriot , the degree of doctor of laws.
This was greeted with a round of ap
plause as the old veteran sank into his
chair , and will be commended by every
Nebraskan.

ORATOR OF THE DAY.
H. C. Brome of Omaha Has Consented
to Speak in Norfolk on the Fourth.
The committee on speaker for the
Norfolk Fourth of Jnly celebration , of
which John R. Hays is chairman , has
extended an invitation to Hon. H. 0.
Brome of Omaha to speak on that day
and he has accepted. Mr. Brome is one
of the foremost platform speakers in
the state and those who admire a fine
address will assuredly hear one on the
Fourth if they will listen to Mr. Brome.
His forensic ability is well known to
the people of Norfolk and surrounding
country and there will be many who
will come to hear him who would not
be attracted by the other events of the
day. It is assured that the speaking
will be on the high plane of the other
features of the day and enough pleasure
and entertainment is now in sight to
Insure those who become the guests of
Norfolk one of the most enjoyable occa
sions in the history of the state. Mr.
Brome was formerly a resident of Nor
folk where he started in n successful
career as an attorney. He removed to
Omaha with a view to enlarging his
sphere and has attained a reputation as
an attorney and an orator that is state
wide. Those who enjoy an enthusiast
ically patriotic Fourth of July address
will not miss it by coming to Norfolk
and hearing Mr. Brome.

CUT-WORM MOTHS
Prof. Bruncr of the Nebraska Uni
versity Writes of the Insects.
A. J. Dnrlnud rocoutly wrote to
jawroiico Brnner , professor of ento
mology at the experiment station , state
luiverplty , Lincoln , regarding the moth
hat has been so common iu Norfolk
nud vicinity this tprlng. Replying to
iis inquiries the profensor writes :
"Tho insect which yon mention is n
peoles of cut-worm moth , probably the
amo as that which wns so plentiful
evernl weeks ngo iu portions of ceutrnl
Nebraska in alfalfa , wheat and other
fields. There seems to bo no special
method by which these moths cau bo
destroyed other than to depend upon
birds and other naturnl enemies. The
probability is thnt they will deposit eggh
within the next week or ton days and
then die. Whether or not the eggs
will produce extensive broods of cut
worms remains to be seen , though it is
not necessary that such should be the
case since quite frequently those insects
appear in largo numbers and for some
reason or other even the next generation
.8 binaller thau ordinarily. The natural
enemies of cut-worms aud their relatives
nro different kinds of flesh flies ,
Ichneumon flies , predacious beetles ,
frogs , lizards , mice , shrews , and other
small mnmmals. Disease bomotinieH
breaks out among them and takes off
largo numbers. Unfavorable climatic
conditions form a prominent factor in
regulating the numbers of these insects.
They do not seem to hnvo any particular
food plant which they prefer to others
to such an extent as to make it necessary
to cease growing such plants. "
