The city of Waterloo wins in
tho supreme court in the case where
in William Watters is plaintiff, and
which resulted favorable to the
plaintiff in the district court, Judge
Blair presiding. This was a case
where Mr. Watters, through his at
torneys, Reed & Tuthill, asked for
damages against the city for two
falls upon the sidewalk, one on
Bridge street where his hearing was
impaired and other injuries sus
tained, and the other on Chestnut
street, whore Mr. Wattors received
an injury to an eye which necessi
tated the removal of the member
later. The damages awa ded by
the jury were §2,500. The city ap
pealod the case and Judge Blair
is reversed. The contention of the
plaintiff's attorneys was that the first
fall was tho approximate cause of
tho second, and it was probably on
this point that the reversal was
made.—Waterloo Courier.

it, but become a regular reader of
Tho Homestead, which teems from

making it without a superior in its
particular field, if, indeed, it has an
equal. Tho time has come when
farming can be made profitable only
by adopting advanced and progres

as W. P. Harned every week by
simply subscribing for a farm paper,
it is simply common sense to do so.

SING ALL THE WHILE
THE FINNS INDULGE IN SONG IN AND
OUT OF SEASON.
From Noble to Pennant and From the
City Lady to the Woman Who Works
lu the Field the People May He Said
to Form Onc Vawt Chorul Society.
Iu the palatial supper room of the
great hotel in Ilclsingfors, tho capital
of Finland—the best hotel iu itusnla,
for the Finns represent nil that is moat
progressive in the c&ir's einpiro—n com
pany of ladies and gentlemen seated
at one of the tables suddenly began
musing. With traiued voices they sang
a four part folk lure sontf of the north
land. Xever heard a rour so deeply
rnolaneholy. It was the n:uaie of tho
ualmpplost of the enlightened peoples
of the earth.
That was on my first evening in Fin
land. From that time forth through
out a stay of four weeks among those
sad hearted people I listened to their
slugiug morning, noon and night al
most continuously. Tho Ccnnans sing
a great deal, the bwedes uing part of
the time, tho Russians sing mo.it of the
time, but the Finns as a nation actu
ally sing all the time.
From noblo to peasant, the men of
Finlund may be said to form one
mighty male chorus. From the great
lady of the capital city to the lowly
woman who builds houses with her
own hands on the borders of I.aplaud,
tho women of Finland may be said to
comprise one vast choral society. The
acknowledged finest singing society in
Europe Is indeed the Ilolslngfors mala
chorus. It is composed of 100 mem
bers, and from their ranks are recruit
ed the singing teachers of the country.
Singing festivals -ts held by the
Finns are on a scale unequaled in any
other country. Five thousand singers
gathered one night in the public square
In nelsingfors to serenade a Finnish
artist nnmcd Rosenfold, whose plcturo
had been uwarded first prize at tho lo
cal salon. In a city that is a surprlso
to all travelers, near the arctic circle,
many miles from a railroad, the city
of Uleaborg, 2,000 school children gath
ered In the park In front of the hotel
and for half an hour, for tho travelers'
benefit, filled the air with the music
Of the enow wilderness, with songs
that told of tho vast loneliness of tho
country beyond the city.
Once In Ilelslngfors 10,000 voices
Joined in chorus to Ring the national
anthem. It was an improvised chorus,
but the singing was by no means tho
harum scnruiu, go-us-you-please sort,
but thoroughly organized into four
parts and executed with precision.
This incident was described to mo by
the man in whose honor the great chor
us gathered. Said he:
"I was one of the first persons ever
exiled from that part of the czar's
domain. My departure from Ilelslng
fors was the occasion of a public dem
onstration of surpassing solemnity.
Ten thousand persons gathered at tho
railway station to say goodby. The
crowd watched tho leave taking in ab
solute silence, but as the train began
to move 10,000 heads were uncovered,
and 10,000 voices begnn singing tho na
tional anthem. And this scene was re
peated—with fewer singers, of course—
at every railroad station all the way
to the port where I took steamer for
tTiftiS dd" tiot' hTways
sing their folk lore soDgs or their pa
triotic anthema. Thy aro a deeply re
ligious people, mostly Lutherans, and
cach town has Its speclnl choir for
singing nothing but hymns. I went to
the largest church In the country to
hear the singing of a choir of nearly
hundred male voices. The grandest
cathedral organ never produced music
of such majesty and power us did that
choir, which included the most won
derful bass voices In Russia.
Even the companies of Finnish
guards, though ofllcered by Russians,
sang the Finnish anthem as they
marched past the hotel every morning
on the way to relieve the old guard.
Tho Russian officers once tried to put
a stop to the singing of tho Finnish
national song by the soldiers, but the
discontent among the men became so
apparent that singing was again per
mitted.
Thus wherever tho Finns get togeth
er they burst into song. When they
cannot get together thoy sing individu
ally. The housewife preparing tho
cabbage soup sings. The farmer plow
ing his field In summer or Journeying
long distances on snowshocs in the
winter sings at tho top of his voice.
Whenever I passed one of the men iu
tho lonely districts in charge of a herd
of celndeer he was singing. In the
posthouscs, where the traveler 13 shel
tered overnight, the servants gather
when their day's work is done and Join
their voices in the chorus.
This constant singing is regarded by
all students of Finnish life as an im
portant national Influence. The effect
of so much music In the nation's soul
Is seen In the emotional sfde of tho
people's nature nnd has its concrete
form in a ready sympathy that binds
tho Finns together as one family, cach
for al) and all for cach. Such is this
nation of singers thnt sings all the
time.—London Tit-Bits.
Lake Csyuffa's Myvterica.
Lake Cuyuga i» one of the wonders
of tho eastern states. It ia situated In
west centrul New York and Is upward
58-SW
ot forty miles lu length, with nil aver
ago breadth of but three miles. One*
of its peculiarities is this: Although
hundreds of persons have been drown
•ed In its waters since the settlement of
Ithe adjucent territory, not single
corpse has so far been recovered, and
it Is a common saying that "Lako Ca
yuga never gives up its dead." Those
who have made an attempt to fathom
this mystery say that tho bottom of
this remarkable sheet of water Is sim
ply a series of large openings and
craterlike cavities, the entire lake bed
having the appearance of being one
huge honeycomb, each of tho well
like boles being reputed to be bottom
less.
Another Cayuga mystery is Its ir
regular tides. There is 110 stnted time
for their appcarunco, but when they
do come they arc very decided, tho
water often instantly receding 00 to
100 feet and as quickly returning with
a roar that can be beard for miles.—
