Let Us Have Music.
It is pleasant to see that, while the great
mass Of the people are engaged almost entire
u in the pursuit Of dollars and cents, there
are come few individuals who turn aside, at
the proper seasons, for the purpose Of in
augurating some scheme having In view the
enjoyment Of the people at large, both rich
and poor. Among the most beneficial oI
these schemes that VIC have ever had the
| pleasure Of bidding "success" to, is one
which Inns just been taken in baud By one OF
two energetic gentlemen, having as it's Object
| the engagement Of one Of our best bands to
| play twice week at different points or
Michigan Avenue. This will give every per.
son an opportunity Of enjoying ut least two
evenings in a week, in very pleasant nm.
ncrx If they will take the trouble to move
themselves to the place above mentioned.
It is proposed TO hare the performances
eye1y Monday and Thureday, during the bal
ance Of June, July and August, from about s
o'clock in the evening till 1890; and if thu
