w. ". KimbnII Company at the EN-
DOsitiOn.

The handsome Exhibit of the Kimball
Piano Co. of Chicago, as il now stands com
plete in the Main Center aisle of the Liberal
Arts building at the Transmississippi Expo
sition, does much credit TO the name II rep
resents.
The booth is constructed OF bronze and
iron upon the oriental style of architecture,
covering 400 square feet upon an elevated
platform a couple of feet from the floor,
nicely carpeted with bright tapestry, with
a neat, low iron railing running entirely
around the top Of the platform, with four
corrugated bronze posts at the corners sup
porting an octagon-s shaped roof, upon each
corner of which. Immediately over the pill
lars, is placed large silver covered globes
with the name of "Kimball" in large let
tering. At the west end is a handsome
founder and president of the company. On
the sides there is also placed life-si2ed por-
traits of Il, S. Conway, Secretary. and A.
G.. Cone, Treasurer OF the company.
Around the border of the interior OF the
exhibit are neatly arranged the life-sized
portraits of twenty of the most noted com
posers and authors of Classic Music. such
as Wagner, Mendelssohn. Bacn, Mozart,
Beethoven, Chopin, Schubert. Handel and
others. The exhibit at the east end is rep
| resented by one of the Company's finest
portable Pipe. self playing Organs, which Ii
| greatly admired. and its sweet musical and
melodious strains are greatly appreciated by
the occupants and the thousands of daily
visitors to the building.
Conveniently throughout the Exhibit are
placed Grand. Upright Pianos and Organs

North md south Railroad.

On Wednesday. Thursday and Friday the
meeting of the Gulf and Interstate Trans
portation committee will take place. This
body is agitating a plan of building a rail-
road from South Dakota through Omaha
to the Gulf Of Mexico by the shortest pos
sible line. The building of such an airline
means millions of dollars TO the grain
growing states. as IL will result in the re-
duction OF transportation rates. 1t is esti-
mated that grain can be shipped to Europe
from New Orleans and Galveston as cheaply
as from New York, and as the overland
haul to tidewater would be reduced by this
road from LOO to 800 miles, the advan-
tage is obvious. The scheme OF such a road
was preached to the legislatures OF Ne
braska, Dakota. Texas, Kansas, Indian Ter
ritory and Oklahoma two years ago, and
all Of them approved it. Committees were
appointed to push the plan to completion,
but they have never yet met. All of them,
however, will come together at this meet
ing. 1t was at first thought that the plan
appealed to only the residents OF the states
through which the railroad was planned to
pass, but 1t has developed that pretty
nearly every western state has taken an
interest in 1t. 1t is therefore estimated
that the meeting will be attended by fully
500 delegates.

You know you dislike to sill your

water such as you have every summer
from the "Big Muddy" Why not have
clear water in your house? You have no

We guarantee to give filtered water in
quantities sufficient for all purpose in a
house. hotel or hospital. no matter how
muddy the water may be. The filtered
water will be clear. soft and tasteless, and
will not affect bluing. starch or soap.
The publication of water by means OF
chemica reagents Is the only process now
known whereby large quantities of water
can be purified rapidly and ut reasonable
cost. The idea Is TO use a reagent which
shall be changed into an insoluble condition
In the water. This is necessary because
the mud and sediment In the water are too
fine to be intercepted by the sand filter bed
alone; II is. therefore, necessary TO add
something which will gather up the fine

TO give an artistic effect. Above all she
urged that yards OF daisies and p%ansies should
not be hung on the walls imply because
they were painted by some one who was
regarded by her immediate relatives as a
genius. 1t was better to spend a quarter
of a dollar in the purchase of a photograph
of some real masterpiece and be forever
happy in it's contemplation.
Mrs. Hall commended that more morality
could be instilled into the minds OF the boys
| and girls through the medium of an attrac-
| tice school room than by any other means
Nothing taught the lessons OF morality anu
charity more forcibly than the masterpieces
of art.
In discussing art in the community the
| speaker deprecated the fact that the intro
duction Of machinery to s%upplant hand labor
| had robbed some classes of art of its indi-
viduality. The time was past when a man
, spent a life time in carving a crucifX be-
cause no one would wait for it or buy it
after he had finished it.
Another musical number was contributed
by Mrs. Thomas Kelly, who sang "A Sum
mer Night" by Gorign Thomas with Il voice
of rare sweetness but scarcely strong enough
to fill such a vast structure. In view of

effort.
Mrs. Kate Tannett Woods of Salem, Mass,
was to speak on ''Club Courtesies," but as
her manuscript was in her trunk, which
still fingered somewhere between Salem and
Omaha, she excused herself by very grace
fully suggesting that in view of the cour-
tesy that the visitors had experienced in
Omaha any further comment on the sub
ject would be superduous.
The Lorelei sang Stay With Me" by Otto
Lob, and scored another decided success.
The program closed with an exceptionally
able paper by Mrs. Ellen A. Richardson of
Boston on The Keystone of the Educational
Arch" She said that as a nation the Amer
leans are the builders OF an educational
arch that should span the earth with its
bow of promise. The keystone was the ideal
that would make civilization in its highest
form possible for the whole world. She
proceeded to analyze the technical structure
of an arch using each element to point an
educational moral. At the conclusion of
her address the visitors adjourned TO the
quarters of the Bureau of Entertainment in
the Mines building, where tea was served.
