The book contains many valuable "pointers" for people who do business with banks, in fact is an educa tor not to be despised. A portion of the old temporary Loup bridge went out Saturday night; the new bridge was to be in readiness for crossing yesterday (Tuesday) even ing, and will, doubtless, be ready by the time the Joubsax. reaches its readers.

On More for tke Anylaau Stephen Corcoran, a young man about 20 years old, was taken to the jail at Albion last Thursday, supposed to be insane. He is a son of Wm. Corcoran, one of the old settlers in the northeast ern part of Boone county. Stephen was, until about two weeks ago, consid ered a bright young man. It was diffi cult to take him to jai as he was a very stout man, and it required eight men to get him there. He was adjudged insane and passed through this city Friday to Norfolk in charge of Sheriff 'Williams of Albion. A very interesting meeting was held Saturday afternoon to hear the south side friends of Columbus present their views on the location of the Platte river bridge. The meeting was presided over by L.

Senator Maher and Representative Swartsley returned home from Lincoln Thursday, the legislature having ad journed till yesterday at 2:30. Mr. Maher has appointed George Harmon as secretary of his committee Immigra tion. Geo. Whaley, who has returned to Lincoln to resume his studies in the State University, gave a farewell recep tion to about 30 of his young friends Friday evening in the parlors of the Grand Pacific hotel. The evening was very pleasantly Bpent in dancuv and sociability, and a splendid supper served. Alfred, Fred and Ernst Stenger have returned from their trip to California. They are not favorably impressed with that country as a place to earn a living. It may be, occasionally, and during an excitement in real estate, a rich man's opportunity; it certainly is not a country for a poor man, or one who earns the living of himself and family. Houses can be seen in all stages of construction, as though a sudden calamity had over taken the country. Quite a number of things impress the stranger unfavorably. Gen. Manager, W. H. Holcomb, Supt. Neb. Division,- C. F. Beasignie, Assist. Sup't. P. Tonly, Gen. Passenger Ag J. S. Tibbets and J. A. Foley, Master of transportation, came up Monday on No. 3 and went back on No. 24. Whether their visit had any reference to the pro posed through line to Sioux City, we are not aware. There have been some ru mors of the building of machine shops here, also, but we have found that in railroad matters, the public conjecture, and the officials decide, what and when it best subserves the interests they are guarding.

Mosic-By the Circle. The New Platte Bridge. The contract for this bridge has been let to M. Wagner, who has been super intending the construction of the new Loup bridge. The bridge, it is now calculated, will be 1850 feet in length, with U foot span; it is to be an "A" span bridge resting upon a substantial three and four pile trestle foundation, roadway 10 feet in width, the floor to be of 2 inch oak. The work is to be completed in sixty days after the contract is signed, and to cost $44? per lineal foot. With two excellent bridges spanning the rivers south of us, the old-time trade from that section wQl certainly this way. come The Fi The annual meeting of this association was held at Fitzpatrick's hall Friday afternoon.

Murdock, Albert Luth. The Platte Bridge- The Ax Groaad. -Ed. Jotjbnax.: I see in your issue of the 2d an "error corrected" by E. M. Sparhawk. I am unable to discover wherein Mr. S. has made the "correction." He admits as true that there is danger of the north bank of the river, washing around the ends of the bridge, and should be avoided, he says by locating 20 or 30 rods further up stream, which will require less bridging, give better banks and furnish a good road. Now, for the facts in the case. The point named by Mr. S. would not be so good as at the old location, for this reason: the river has already washed out the bank, making quite a bend in the river above the point named by Mr. S. Now anyone that knowB anything about the Platte river knows or ought to know that such a place should be avoided. It would be but a short time until all would be washed into the river. Mr. S. admits that the second danger will bear watch ing. Yes, it will bear watching, and it will take something else besides watch inga big expenditure of money and labor, and then it won't keep the river out. As for the "mud holes," they are there all the same, whenever the ice gorges the river, and high water in June occurs. Now as to a road at or near Kummer's mill, I would ask Mr. S.where are the people living in Alexis twp. to get a road to Columbus unless it is at or near Kummer's mill, since he so quietly got the road formerly traveled by those people vacated through his land? The people in Butler county have to go by the way of Clear Creek at pres ent. Now, as to "having an ax to grind," it appears that Mr. Sparhawk has al ready ground his. If the people in Butler county want a road through his land, they will have to pay him big damages for it. All the ax I have to grind is to keep the Platte river from washing a channel through my land, doing me great damage, and which would also stop Mr. S. and every one else from getting to Columbus, unless they should build another new bridge.

Sight The following from the editorials of the Etude should interest many students of music: " is a great accomplishment to be ! able to play oven simple music readily and intelligibly at first sight. Teryfew persons can do this thing welL Some charlatans, however, . profess to play anything' at sight. Unmusical people have a very general belief that this is a feat that any good musician can perform, and the majority of those who are utter-ly-ignoant of musical matters will not hesitate to mention the names of musi 6ians who 'can play the most difficult compositions correctly and artistically at first 'sight.' Of course this claim is too absurd even to merit a serious refutation and it would not receive our attention here but for the fact that there are many students of music who are disposed to undervalue their teachers when they find they are unable to do what no great AVTIdf-WnnlJ M A 1 m tutu. -uuiu pruieas to ao. xnere may be men who are able to read aloud sev eral pages of- plain English without mis taking some words and omitting, trans posing and mispronouncing others with out entirely missing the meaning of some phrases and sentences, and mis placing the emphasis in some places there may be a few such renders in the world, but the writer lias never heard e&forie. But this is not a fair analogy. Is" there, & man in the world who can at first sight make a translation of the most difficult Greek? If there is such a man, he has not yet been heard from. And yet it were easier to acquire such skill in Greek than to read difficult music in a faultless style. Perhaps the most won derful reader of pianoforte music the world ever saw was Franz Liszt. Of this marvelous man, who could perform so many miraculous feats, Dr. Louis Maas, of Boston, says: 'When reading some intricate passage, with too many notes to take in at a glance, it suffices for him to go through it slowly once or twie until the tones are fixed in his mind, when he can immediately play it as others would do perhaps after a year's practice. Neither Yon Bulow nor Bu benstein can do this.' And yet there are silly charlatans in many country dis tricts who pretend to be able to do this very thing! Beady reading is a great accomplish ment, and every musician should im prove every opportunity to practice sight reading. But the wise man will learn the lesson of humility in every attempt he makes in this direction. He is forced face to face with the fact that human skiu, nas very narrow limits, that art long and time is fleeting.'
