The Hargravo hiccough li like the Hans-
Tnirg chin or the Drew nose or the ruddy
hair of the house of Hlphborg , In that It
cwpa out from geneiatlon to generation , and
1 > handed down , a legacy ot dubious value
from father to son , It Is sul generis amons
hiccoughs , and draws attention as unerring
ly to the H.irgia\o who Is temporarily afflict
ed as the facial nnd hlisuto features above
enumerated Indicate their respective pos
sessors The many friends ot the Hargravcs
nnd many otheis who are not filends nor
oven acquaintances are awaio of thU re
markable slngultous afulcJtlon. Not seldom
Its report Is heard Inoppoi timely , as dmlm >
n solemn church sen Ice , In the holy calm
which precedes the benediction. It Is always
delivered without premonitory symptoms ,
end Is not to bo restrained by mental prep
aration , physical antidote or spiritual aid.
In splto of this sort of thing , young Ulck
Hargrove Is In love , os certain of his fa
miliars know. "Though the tough cough
end hiccough plough him through , " his heart
lias not been permanently displaced ; and In
nn evil hour ho laid bare the secret of his
devotion to his younger brother Ed. His
confession was made with baitings end stam
merings , of which ho was ashamed , and with
occasional hiccoughs , which passed unno
ticed between the brothers. Dick unveiled
Oils soul to young Ed. Ho expatiated upon
the expanding quality of Love , and told how
this was In his own case. Ho felt constantly
drawn toward his Gertrude. Ho should be
drawn toward her that very evening. "And ,
T > y the way , " he said , as o happy though !
struck him , "I have an Invitation for you ,
Dill Madison's cousin. Miss Madison , Is vis
iting Bill's folks. She is a Vassar girl a
stunner. 13111 wants yon to meet her. "
Dick thought this was true , the jouthful
Hill having Indeed said something of the
Kind. Ed. however , put his own construction
on this unusual courtesy from his elder
brother. It should bo Slid for the better
understamlliiR of the reader that Geitrudc
lives on Capitol hill , the Hargraves occupy
an ancestral seat on Sherman avenue and
the Hamlltons have for generations lent tone
to the eminently aristocratic region aboul
Hanscom park. These geographical details
wore quite clear In the mind of Ed , whe
thought ho know why he was sent so fai
from homo on that particular evening. He
said "All right , old sport , " and went down
town , chuckling to himself.
? n , thwny , . , > provldcnco being kind , he
spied Dill Hamilton Imbibing soft drinks
through a straw. Ho entered the resort and
acquiring a similar beverage for himself !
learned that Illll's cousin had changed her
mind and was not coming. Then ho was
1ur ° . , a , io1 ! hatl been Put " ! ' ° n 1'lm ' and he
detailed the circumstances to Bill , That
worthy smote his knee.
"I'vo got It , " ho cried , gleefully. "I know
the people next door to her house by
George. Yes ! Used to bo at Orchard Lake
with Gus Gus Blake , you know. Oh this
Is rlchl"
Gus Dlako entertained two young men that
night , and three young men hid themselves
In the shrubbery that divided the lawns.
Prom whuro they lay they could hear the
elghs of the fair Gertrude as she swung
in the hammock and waited.
A duck-suited form appeared , coming from
the gate. Ed nudged his friends to right and
left. The trap was set and the victim was
at hand.
What Immediately followed need not be
circumstantially described It all led up to
Dick's proposal. The conspirators saw him
tnko Gertrude's hands In his ; they heard his
passionate words : they observed how her
head presently reclined upon his shoulder.
Their cup ot Joy was almost full.
Suddenly , without warning , there arose on
the still air of night n sharp , erfploslvo sound ,
the "whoop" of thu Ill-starred Hargravo hie.
cough. The hammock shuddered. Gertrude
started up like a frightened fawn. But worse
was to follow. Scarcely had the lust echo
of Dick's unlucky outburst died away when
on answering hiccough of llko toner and et-
led came from the Blake hedge. High
Gtruug human sensibility could not abide
the shock. Gertrude fled abruptly to the
lioiiso , Dick made a flying leap Into the
liedgo , followinj ; the ominous sound , and an
Instant later four Hying llguros passed down
Capitol avenue In thu direction of thu High
school.
The rest Is another story of a stern chase ,
ot wounds and of contusions on tu ! > ono hand
and ot explanations and forgiveness on the
other And it Is said that the formal an
nouncement ot an Important engagement maybe
bo expected soon.

A quiet family celebration occurred In
Omnha last Thursday , September 0 , which ,
while perhaps It attracted little attention
outsldo the Immediate circle who enjoyed It ,
was jet of peculiar Interest to Omaha because -
cause of the part which the participants had
homo In the city's history.
Mr. nnd .Mis. William 1' . Snowden cclc-
bratud on that day their golden wedding
aunlvcisary.
Mr. and Mrs. Snowden lay claim to being
the ( Irst actual settlers In the city of Omaha.
They came to Omalm on the afternoon of
July 11. 1S51. Mr. and Mrs. Newell had
pieccdcd them on the morning : of the same
day , but the latter couple only remained
thrco weeks , thus leaving the honor to Mr.
and Mrs. Snowden of being the llrst people
reall' to Hvo on this side of the river , al
though a number had crossed and staked out
claluiK , but resided at Kancsvllle or Council
llluft's The Council Bluffs & . Nebraska Ferry
company had laid out the city of Omaha
and built the first house , a rude log cabin ,
which Mr. and Mrs Snowden occupied ,
Keeping a boarding house or hotel for the
cmplojes of the fcny company nnd strang
ers who might come to the new town. It
was christened the St. Nicholas , but was
usually called the Claim House They re
mained hero for thrco months and then re
moved Into a house of their own , the fouith
elected In the town , In which they lived for
two years During their residence In the
hotel , at Mr. Snowdon's invitation the first
religious services were hold , and when they
moved Into their own house they gave a
house warming and the llrst dance the city
had witnessed. The ferry company offered
a lot to the first woman who settled In the
town and this was given to Mrs Snowden
Thu ( Irst grave was dug by Mr. Snowden for
an old Otoo bquaw who had been left to die
by her tribe. The first session of the terri
torial legislature made Mr. Snowden auc
tioneer for Douglas county. Ho has also
occupied the olllce of city marshal for six
years and ot deputy sheriff.
Forty-threo years and more have been
spent by Mr. and Mrs. Snowden In this city
of their adoption , 'and ' they have watched
every phase of Its growth. A family of chil
dren have como and gone out of the home
with the passing yeara , and Thursday came

desire to hi ing together a number of the
old settlers who had s > haied with them the
tolls and pleasuics of those eaily days could
not bo gratified. Mrs Snowden will be 07

The music of the ancient Greeks lias bec'i
an object ot much speculation and the cause
of great diversity of opinion. The'e was a
tlmo not so very long ago when anything
Greek was credited without evidence with
being the best of Its kind that ever was
perhaps that ever would be. It was quite
In fashion to hold up Greek music as the
proper model for modern composers auc
great lamentation prevailed because none of
the tunes which wo would have so dellghtel
to hear had been preserved. The Inde
pendent of September 2 contains a valuable
article on Greek music by Prof. J. P. Ma-
liaffy of Dublin University. He says"Theie
Is no branch of the old Greek's artistic life
which bus exeicl ed modern critics moio
than their theory and practice of music , yet
to us none Is moro enigmatical In other
arts they thoroughly despised the omiteurs ,
and regarded good pointing , Bctilptuie ,
poetry , the exclusive work of a life. Yet
they assume that every boy has a voice and
Is capable of musical training. All recita
tion of the Greek poets was musical. Their
very tragedies were a kind of opera. Their
faglc poets were musical composers. Gieek
lyric poetry was never produced without
music. " It may bo Interesting to know that
It was called lyric because It was apcom-
panlcd on the lyre. Profe'sor Mahaffy con
tinues : "When wo consult- their theorists
upon the effect that the line arts can pro
duce upon human lite wo find they asset t
that music has a direct effect upon morals.
Plato holds In abhorrence , as g-ofsly Im
moral , elaborale instrumental music and
would regard a symphony of Beethoven as
far moro deleterious than the love songs of
Bellini or Verdi. "
The Greeks did not use < i staff ot lines
and spaces for their musical notation , bu'
Ivad over sixty signs for the singing notes
and qulto another set to- the Instrumental.
Students of Greek archeology think they
have no difficulty In reading Greek music
by these slgtib ; their only trouble is with
the rhythm , for Greek notation does not In
dicate how long any note is to bo held , Very
little Greek music has been found , but such
as there la does not teem to have captivated
Prof , Mahaffy. Speaking of the hymn of
Mcsoinedoa ho says"Setting It down ex
actly as It sUmls , wo cannot hnrmonbo It
Into anything but an ugly tune. " Speaking
of an ode discovered at Delphi ho says "The
composition , so far as It was preserved , was
perfectly hideous according to all modern
lyimms of art In fact , so unmeaning was It
to us as a composition that no honest man ,
versed In our system , would undertake to
nupply with Hi" smallest degree of confi
dence a single bar And this may bo Mid
of any other fragment of Greek music. II
follows laws tv strange to us that wo are
completely at a loss to understand It. Evo'y
other kind ot Greek art may be used by us
as a model , but Oroek music Is an unintel
ligible and disagreeable succession of sound "
It Is not Impossible that future discover
ies may reveal a higher order of Greek
music or show defects in the present meth
ods of reading It and It may provo to be
not so very bad after all However , one
thing may be nafoly stated : Theie are no
remains ot ancient musio In any country ,
no matter how high Its civilization In other
ways , that can compare with the simplest
example of our church music to say nothing
of our symphonies or operas. The worship
of the past In musical matters Is a. waste of
emotion and a voluntary blindness to the
greatness ot the present. I'rof Muhaffy
wys : "The singing of the playa of Sopho
cles to their original music would probably
make them simply ridiculous to our ears. "
But the singing ot a play ot Wagner , to
modern music , Is the triumph ot musical
art.
