The College Band ana eng their Friend.

The fine brass band, of the College of
Our Lady of the Sacred Heart paid some of
its friends the compliment of seFenade
last Thursday Evening. The band on this
occasion showed high state of proficiency
and the members gave unmistakable evil
dence OF having been put through a very
thorough and efficient course of training
at the hand of Rev. Father Lilly, their
leader We regret that when the REpuBL1-
CAN office was visited by the band all hands
were absent, but the complim ent of the
call is none the less duly appreciated At
the time OF the occurrence we neglected to
mention the presentation of beautiful flag
to the College Band by Mrs. Colonel Dun
bar, of Waukesha. The flag is the /meri-
can Ensign, and bears on its white silk
ground the following inscription "OUR
LADY OF THE SACRED HEART, PRESENTED BY
MRS. K. DUNBAR, May 3lst, 1875. From
what we know of the Sacred Heart boys
they will ever honor the flag and never
allow it to trail in the dust.

Organ of WatertOwn ManufactuI

Prof. E. G. Gaebler is putting up in St.
Johns Lutheran Church, of this city, a
magnificent pipe organ manufactured at his
Temple of Music, Fourth street. This or
gan is fine specimen of Watertown manu-
facture and reflects credit on it's builder.
A brief description of the instrument may
be interesting. The organ has two banks
of keyes, two cctave of pedals, and con-
tains over fourteen hundred pipes from 16
feet to 3 OF an inch 10 length. There are
% stops and combination pedals. The
case is l5xl4 feet and 20 feet high There
are % gilded pipes in front, the largest of
which is ten feet long and 6 inches in
diameter. The bellows furnishes 35 900
inches of wind every second The organ
when completed is worth $4,000. Ex-
cellent workmanship has been DISPLAYED
on all portions Of the instrument. The de-
sign of the front was drawn by Mr.. L.
Charboneau and, of course, is tasty and art
istic. The gliding and painting on the or
gan were done by Messrs. Degenhardt &
Bredow, Mr.. w. E. Dervin having hand
in on the finishing touches. OF course the
tone of this instrument will be of the high
est order having passed through the hands
OF Prof Gaebler one of the foremost must
clans of the state, who has supervised
every portion Of the work. Our citizens
will have an opportunity Of hearing this
magnificent organ for the first time on
Sunday June 9th. 1t will be played by
Gel ebrated organst from Milwaukee. We
hope the day is not far distant when Prof
Gaebler & Son will engage more extensive
ly in the manufacture of pipe organs
They are certainly competent TO turn out
| as good instruments as can be found any
where, and we trust they may meet with
sufficient encouragement to build up a
large manufacturing interest of this kind
| in our midst.

Tuesdays Races Post
poned Until Saturday
Next.

Tho rain Tuesday OF this week prevented
the races from taking place on the Water
| town Driving Park as advertised. The fail
ure caused great disappointment to large
number from outside the city who had
come in to attend them and was a source of
deep regret to the Association who had
done all in their power to make the races
successful. Had the weather been favorable
Tuesday would undoubtedly have been the
best day yet seen on the Watertown. Race
Course. esf
The races are postponed to next Saturday,
June 10Th, when it is expected that a day
equally as interesting to horsemen and lows
ers OF the turf, as Tuesday promised to be,
will be realized. Arrangements have been
made to have races all day next Saturday,
when all the races that were advertised to
take place on Tuesday will come off with
some additional ones, makiag a great day
sport. All, Of course, who want to witness
the best horse racing of the season will be
present. twithstanding the muddy con-
dition of the track, the $50 race was trot-
ted Tuesday afternoon. The race was taxi
en- by Corn Planter, of Madison, in two
heats; time $40, 3:13. 0a95s

The proposition 81 Che Admins
TRAITOR 81 Finance 70 solve the
financial difficulties of tho city by
fhe adoption of what Is called the
Premium Bond Scheme, but which
e really a tombola or lottery, is
open 10 several very serious and,
Us think. insurmountable oblec-
tons. n Tire frst place suit has
been or Is about to be instituted
IS the United States Circuit Court,
by Mr. Layton. President Of the
Southern Bank, aud agent Of con
soliaated bondholders il Europe,
which denies the validity Of oil
bonds issued by The city, except
such rs have been submitted to d
vote of Gle people, and tho inaugu-
ration at this scheme might saddle
the city with obligations that the
courts. at some future time, would
hold Ia be not binding. This OF
itself will have q very deterrent IN
aueDce upon people otherwise IN
clined to think favorably Of the
Premium Bond Scheme. Then
under the plan holders Of premium
bonds may have to watt fifty years
before they see either principal OF
interest, whereas tho same sum IN
vested otherwise would realize
nearly seven times the amount in
the same period of time. There
would be, Of course, many for
tunate ones; but those who de.
pend upon the interest Of their
bonds for their living would
scarcely be comforted when they
discovered that tickle fortune left
them ont in the cold year after
wear for d quarter or half CEN
tury. The most serious obstacle,
however, ard the one that it would
seem quite impossible to over
come, il the fact that the poposi-
ton, however excellent it may be,
I is Ia direct contFayention Of a
criminal statute Of the State which
makes Ii d punishable offense for
any person or corporation to yend
| lottery tickets ID this State except
| the company which has secured a
monopoly Of the business from the
State, By paying an annual bonus.
The Supreme Court has passed
upon this contract, and has sas-
tanned it, SO that, whatever may
be our individual opinions con-
corning it, We must accept the fact
and recognize the further fact that
this corporation would scarcely
permit any such encroachmeEt
upon its franchises as is contem.
| plated by this Premium Bond
Scheme. - fN. O. Bulletin.

ORANGES Few Of our readers
have any conception Of The mag
nitude 81 tile orange trade with
foreiqn countries. From a New
York commercial paper, which
gives tile value IF all articles im-
ported through that city, We learn
that during the month OF March
1884 992 worth Of oranges were
landed in that city from foreign
countries, and that the average
irnportations throughout the year
amount to more than two hundred
thousand dollars per month, OF
oranges alone.
This gives an idea Of the De-
mand the growers Of oranges have
to supply, aud il eyery acre Of
land in Louisiana was cultivated
10 oranges, yet the market could
not be ovefstockad. Therefore,
away with the notion that the
business of orange culture can be
overdone, and plant more trees.
