A man opened up a trunk full of
watches, jewelry and other truck on the
bridge last Saturday and sold at auction
tor a couple of hours. He waa surround
ed all the time by a crowd of eager
buyers, and reaped a generous harvest.
A peculiar thing about such things is
that nearly the same string of "suckers"
is caught every time some stranger
comes along and throws ont the bait.
Last week it seemed to be the general
opinion among farmers with whom we
talked that winter wheat had suffered
severely during the winter; many of
them reporting whole fields killed;
others only portions of the fields. Talk
ing with aomeof the same men this week
they tell us it is not so bad as they
thought it was; that fields which last
week seemed entirely dead are this week
showing life, and would probably come
out all right. No doubt many fields are
injured in spots, but not bo seriously as
reported. Early reports every spring
kills many acres of wheat that afterwards
produce a good crop.
This community was greatly shocked
last Sunday when a dispatch from Sioux
City announced that Louie Loseke had
died at a hospital in that city that morn
ing, where he went' the Monday liefore
for an operation for appendicitis. Few
of his ac:juiantance knew that he was
thus afflicted, or that he had gone away
for treatment. It snews that he had
been doctoring for several months with
no relief, and finally decided upon an
operation, and last week Monday, in
company with luauister. Mrs. Chris Mar
ten, he went to the hospital. The opera
tion was performed Tuesday afternoon
and so quickly did he rally from it and
feel bo strong that his Bister, thinking
all danger past, came home Friday.
Unfavorable symptoms developed after
she left, and hi i wife wat. dispatched for
anil .she reached his bedside Saturday
evening, but he. passed away at 4:20Snu
day morning. The remains reached
here Sunday evening and were conveyed
to his home six auilea northwest of Platte
Center. The funeral was held Wed
nesday from the Lutheran church at
Uldenbush, nual interment in the ceme
tery near by. Louis C. Loseke was the
oldest child oClMr. and Mrs. Wm. Loseke
and was born m the old Loseke home
stead April lt, 1874. He owned and
lived on a farm which joined his father's
farm on the west. He was one of our
most progressive farmers and stock
growers. He ia survived by his wife

Last Sanday evening a broken rail
waa discovered on the Northwestern
track south of the depot, near the oil
tanks. It was a complete break and,
had it not been discovered, it would
doubtless have resulted in a wreck. The
section men, however, replaced the
broken rail before the morning passen

P. J. Mullen was in town Monday and
said that he was testing his seed corn
and had, so far, found considerable of it
poor. He was surprised at the amount
of poor seed. Others who are testing
are finding much of their seed to be
worthless. The large percentage of poor
seed throughout the north half of the
state is due to the early winter. It is
evident that the corn in Boone county ia
no exception and that unless care is
taken in selecting seed this spring the
crop will be short. Those who tind their
stands of corn spotted and poor, will
doubtless blame the cut worms.

"I am not worrying so much aliont an
early spring," e aid J. Mack the other
day, "as I am. a bout the quality of my
seed corn. Tlie re is a lot of poor corn
in the country and some of it is going to
be used for se-d, which means a poor
stand. I ha v rigged up a little box and
have planted wotne selections from my
crop. By tasting it out in this way I
hope to gel die best corn for seed." If
every farme r ui the county would follow

BACH'S MUSIC.
Soma Advice as to How It Should
Interpreted.
The interpretation of Bach must al-
-waj-s be noble, broad and firm, rather
too hard than tco soft, explains Fer-
tuccIo Busoui. the jjre-.ir pianist. In th.
.Delineator. Affected methods, such as
a "soulful" swelling of the phrases,
-coquettish hurrying or hesitating, too
light staccato, too smooth legato, pedal
debauchery-all these are vicious and
-out of place here. If used with a
proiier sense of proportion a certain
elasticity or the tempo, giving the in
terpretation greater freedom, will im
prove the playing of Bach materially.
The modernization of Bach's compo
sitions bv such masters as Liszt and
'Tauslg aud many others is accepted
by all clear thinking musicians as not
derogatory to the master's style. It
.affords rather a completeness of ex
pression. Witness the fact that Raff
ifcas orchestrated Bach's "Cbaconne"
without making it seem ridiculous.
Many others have followed with hap
py results Raffs example of arranging
Bach's music for the modem orches-
1ra.
Th onsc with which Bach's music
Jends itself to this adaptation Is proof
of his comprehensive genius. He was
not for his day. but for all lime.
Tiinii'i inluilo" and "Fugue No.
10," Important and not too difficult,
show the many sided branching of
the present day piano technic. The
legendary tradition of playing Bach
-without the use of the damper pedal la

seed, water, cuttlefish bone ami gra

cage; no hetnpseed; a bath three times
a week. The room should not be over
heatednever above 70 degrees.
Wbeu moulting (shedding feathers)

Give plenty of German rape seed. A
little hard boiled egg mixed with

pie rules birds may be kept in finej
condition for years. '
For birds that are sick or have lost
their song procure bird tonic at a bird
store. Very many keep birds who

make them bright and happy and at
the same time are guilty of great cru

in a cage shSuld be each one of a dif

If perches are of the right sort no

things, keep the perches clean. Exchange.

The Solid Hoofed Hog.
There are seine solid hoofed hog !"
the world, but they are, few and far

say about such pigs In his "Origin of
Species.' as there were only three In
England at the time he wrote tato
book. The solid hoofed hog is not a
freak of nature, as many suppose, bat.
a genuine case of reversion to a prlatl-.
tlve or ancestral type. It seems that,
unlike the prehistoric ancestor of tao
Biodern horse, which has four toes or
hoofs, the old clotherluui, from which
animal all members of the swine fans
lly are descended, had a solid hoof,
and in the course of ages, as the old.
parent form died out and the modem
wild boar, domestic hog, peccary, etc.,
were evolved this solid hoof became
through what Darwin calls "adapta
tion" and "natural selection divided
up Into two parts, so that all modera
