The High Lines Business Enterprise
In the fall Of 1907 the High Line Ca
nal Co. built a syphon under Apishapa
Greek some 700 feet long and 6 fest in
diameter. discarding the flume crossing
which had been a constant expense to
maintain and an element OF hazard in the
reliability OF the water service. This
proved success, not only working we'll
through the past summer. but requiring
no attention or expense the past unusual
~ severe winter, practically continuous
flow OF water being maintained through
the pipe all winter.
Encouraged by the results at this
point the company has this spring placed
syphon under Smith Hollow, a run
6 fest and length $50 feet. This does
away with another troublesome hume
aud removes the danger OF possible
breaks from flood waters at this point.
The stockholders Of the High Line
Co. are to be congratulated upon the
way they have maintained their ditch

it can be procured.

Tho watchword in this state for the past
few years has been, stand up for Ne
braska," and it has been the proud priv
ilege OF many to boast that they have spread
the fair fame of the state from one ocean
to the other, but it has remained for two
little girls to give the name of the state
yet wider publicity across the waters and
introduce 1t into the homes of The nobility
in England's capital and spread it abroad
among the people Of conservative old Lon
don. The Misses Alice and Ethel Dovey,
who have won golden encomiums on account
of their sweet voices and engaging man
ners, took the name of their state with
but slight change for a stage name and
have by so doing shed luster ON Nebraska.
When they sang before royalty, the fact that
thoy came from Nebraska was always made
plain and those who have held the opinion
that only red men and impossible cowboys
with rough manners and uncouth clothing
could como from the faraway state have
had their minds disabused when they heard
the sweet voices Of these talented girls, the
product of Nebraska, They are to appear in

On Friday night he will Eive Hamlet" con-
sidered his best characterization. Last sea
son Mr.. Whitesides presented for the first
time here THE Red Cockade" and he was
given commendatory criticism both by his
audiences and the newspapers. The piece
deals with incidents of the French reyou-
tiCn.

Whftesides leading woman. His company
is said to be in every way the best that he
ever had and the plays presented are given

Mr.. Whitesides but for several reasons
would have been playing the leading part
in the big production of Ben Hur," the most
stupendous scenic production of the period.
Mr.. Whitesides' chefest reason for with
drawing from the piece. according TO his
business manager was that his and the
other principals identity was lost in the
spectacular and scenic effects Of the piece
that tho audience would be sDellbound by
the picture shown and would forget the

An out town correspondent writes anCnt
the proper pitch to which a piano should G
tuned and complains that in many towns
1t is customary to get the piano UP to
concert pitch (because there is going to lie
a concert, presumably, and the fact that
there is not yet an established pitch among
piano tuners is 70 be deplored,
The orchestras of the world, one may say,
have adopted the international pitch, which
is about a quarter OF tone lower than con-
cert. Most piano tuners in the cities use
the international pitch, but in smaller
towns for some reason or other concert
pitch seems to have the preference 1t
might be said that the voice should lie
able to sing at any pitch, but while all
artists should be able to accommodate them
selves to unexpected conditions there is no
doubt that a singer, being obliged to ar ic-
ulate distinctly, suffers some Inconvenience
when he is accompanied on an instrument
tuned to a higher pitch than the one to
which he is accustomed.
A casual visit to the studios of about a
dozen of the leading teachers of instrumental
and vocal yesterday morning revealed toe
fact that there is much activity in studio
work. although there is a decided d,sncina-
ton for public appearance. This, say the
