Otto Colborg and belle were in at
tendance at last meeting Otto helped
out with dialogue performance on the
stage by his pleasing appearance
The Fairview orchestra composed of
CarlStOn, Johnston, and Bailey favor
ed us with Rotations and vocal and
instrumental music which was highly
appreciated by all.
We read in the Independent of two
weeks ago that the literary one night
was turned into a show, and that
JohnSton'S mule was in on the stage,
and Bailey rode him-Or rather the
goat. We are surprised to learn that
Bailey'S and JOhnstonss are so closely
associated that people cannot tell the
difference between their mules. The
difference is that Johnston's mule is
mule, and Bailey'S mule amt mule
at all, but is genuine mountain
burro. 1t is located at present on the
Baileyview farm and for 10 cents adj
mission can be seen any day in The
week, except Sunday.
The debate caused much merriment.
The question was. Resol, ell, THAT
old bachelors are a nuisance to Trego
county," .. Carlston and ID. Huling,
affirmative; Robert l.. Bailey and E.
Nelson, negative. When Nelson COM
pleted his speech, the motion was
and carried that all the bachelors

their decision therefrOm. About a
dozen good looking, smiling counte-
nances thrOnged the stage, and the
decision was rendered: Two for the
| negative and one for the affirmative.
The judges being ladies, our conject-
ure is that they decided according to
| their own sentiments.
One Methodist said the mules
track was yet on the stage and was as
large around as a wash tup. Another
Nj. e. brother describes it as weighing
nearly Il ton and the track DeIng as
big us a buShel basket. We affirm that
il this same creature and a jack rab-
/ bit were running in the same path
you could not tell the difference in
the size of their tracks. We will now
give you d description of this brute,
advising those who have their names
| on the pastors book to quit telling
mule stories. TlIissanimal weighs ac-
/ cording to the prog of Star
| rett, Hicks, and the postmaster, Pa
pounds without his Oyercoat. 1t has
delicate dark feet, a bright shining
nose, blue twinkling eyes and mole
on its chin.

ABOUT WOMEN AND MUSIC.

Bach was very happy with his first
wife, and her influence in his music is
marked. Beethovens music was in
many cases directly inspired by women.
Mozart. Sphor and Weber were strong
~ influenced in their compositions by
thcir wives. Mendelssohn received his
strongest influence from his sister
Fanny, whose compositions reject the
creative mind of her brother. Wagner's
second wife oXerted a marked influence
or his writings.
The number of women composers is
very small. ard the generally accepted
reason for this is that women lack the
creative quality. As eXeautants theY
develop more rapidly than men and
can interpret music readily. In spite
OF this the influence of women have eX-
erted on music history Is great.

ABOUT TIE FARM AND HOME.

When cream is extremely rich it
can be whipped more easily if little
milk is added to it. II will also whip
more easily if it is well chilled.
When ink is spilled upon linen try
dipping the damaged material in pure
melted tallow. The hot tallo,0 seems to
absorb the ink, and, after washing, the
stain will be found to have disap-
peared.
When the fingers are stained in peel
ing fruits, preparing green walnuts or
in similar ways, dip them in strongtea,
rubbing them well with nail brush and
afterward wash them with warm water
and the stains will disappear
Grasses are always useful for table
decoration. In order to have them Tin
Stock" as it were, the heads should be
picked just before they are ripe and
dried in the shade. They will then keep
well without dropping the seeds.
