I'nder ( lie direction of Water Com- ilssioner SpnuldliiK the Hlundplpo is oliig cleaned out today nnd the hy- rants are belbg lliiHbed of their m-- iimulations of sottliiiKH so that Mm vaterWorks system may enter the vlnter season in n clean condition , 'he proposition of placing a screen ver the top of tin- stand pipe IB oh- ecled to by some because they argue hat it will afford the birds a roost- ng place. If not a place on which to uilil their nests and hatch their iroods. Some means should lie ouiid , however , that will protect the vntor supply from contamination of his character. Regardless of the ealtb of water consumers It is not deasant to think that the water used or drinking purposes has been pollut- d in any way that can be prevented aslly as to close the top of the stand- ilpe. A student of ornithology gives s a cause for birds getting in the land pipe that they go for water and getting their feathers slightly wet are tnahlo to lly out. A water fowl will Iso directly from the water , but a ark or other similar bird cannot do hat. In a stream or pond they will wlm to the hank and crawl out , but hey cannot get up the steep sides of ho tank and therefore drown. TWO PRETTY PARTIES.

Could be Made a Permanent Affair Has Been at Wlsner For Four Years Past. Prof , Hugh Coiuploii. formorU of his city but for the past four M-nrH Irector of the Wlsner regl'm ' > 'utiil and that IIIIH become famous through- ut Nebrushn. was In Norfolk lor n hort time yestcrdn > and staled , man ntervlew , that he would be glnd to eturn to Norfolk and iiNminin direct- rshlp of a hand here if iho nutter onld be established In a business- Ike manlier that would Insure per- mneiice. Mr. Plimpton will shortly pave Wlsiier , the band there hi\lng eclded to manage henceforth wllh- ul a director , having had four u-iirs constant training. Anyone who knows the Wisner mud - and pretty nearly everybody in his sect Inn of the stale does Know he Wlsiier band- knows that romp- on Is all right because tlu- band and ts music are all right. Kurtlieimore. he orgiinl/at Ion's treasury Is all Ight , never a nickel having been Ink- n from It for the purpose of defray- ug expenses. How He Would Organize. "I would never organlv.e a baud on lopuhir subscription , " said Mr. ( 'oinp- on. "I don't want anyone to donate nythlng to ( Ills enterprise. In the Irst place It Isn't permanent that way , ml In the second place the hand locsn't have the Independence that It should. The only way to go about it s to organi/e a stock company and ncorporitte. Then place a certain lercent of each engagement's earn- ngs Into the sinking fund in order to give It a foundation. If , then , the land Is patroiil/.ed by the local terrl- ory , Instead of outside bands , II will win and grow better every day of Its ffe. Norfolk can have a band In this way. It would bo a credit , too , to the city. " Speaking further , Mr. Compton said , 'Of course for the first few months lie people couldn't expect us to give item all of the late classics. Take a much of Individual musicians out of i place like Chicago who have never ilaved together , and they won't make- good music . They need training to gether. Rehearsals are what count. Hut in ( lie course of a reasonable time , there is no reason on earth why the band should not lie a first class orua- "In on'er to end with a hand of twenty-four pieces , it would be neces sary to start with forty. There is al ways a sifting out and a dropping out. But If the band were to start this fall , wo could furnish rattling good music hy next summer. " Norfolk' formerly had a good band. Frequently now it feels the need of one , and many times in the summer concert season the music is missed. There arc- two bands in the city today , one a young ladles' band which Is making good music and the other a juvenile band under the leadership of W. C. Alilman. Mr. Ahlman , however , has said that he would be glad t'o as sist In the orguni/alion of the new band under a director.

Manager Bldwell of the Northwest ern and Assistant Engineer Carter of the Northwestern have been spending several days In the wilds of Wyoming , traveling overland through the coun try to lie opened by the new line which is to run west from Casper to Lander and from that place to reach the Thermopolls country. They are expected to return Iroin the west In a few days. A story Is current In railroad circles now that the action of the Northwest ern was hastened In this matter by the report from Plttsbiirg that the Burlington has purchased several mil lion dollars' worth of rail and bridge steel. It is believed that some big building Is lu sight and that the Bur lington and the Northwestern are about ready to renew their old time activity In the west. Bridge work is constantly In pro gress on both roads and a great amount of steel Is used for this pur pose. Both roads are constantly plac ing new steel on established lines and a great deal of the product of the mills Is required when there Is no new building In sight. However , these facts do not account for the sl/e of the order said to have been placed by the Burlington with the Carnegie Steel company at Plttsbiirg , and railroad men are pricking their ears In expec tation of hearing announced plans of great Importance for the future , State Journal.
