II. G.. SHELDON.
The concerts OF the Salina Cornet Band were
far more entertaining than most people had
reason to expect. On Friday evening the
church was we'll filled, and a variety Of music
was furnished. Everybody was surprised at
the wonderful progress made by the band with
their new pieces, and as the audience were
seated there they were proud that S;,lina could
boast Of as good band. The boys did nobly
and persuaded all that they are entitled to
good support at the hands of Salina people.
Sir. p. Q. Bond sang two songs the first even.
ing aud one the second. IN his usual telling "
u
Irish or German characters. A song by little
Miss Hattie Duvall won the admiration OF the
audience Of each evening. She has sweet
voice and sang much better than some much
Older Who consider themselves tirst-class
singers. The - Singing Skewl' performance
was well received. The Shadow PantOnmr
WAS novel TO many and was very amusing. The
Mulligan Guards made quite parade aud were
very funny. The concerts were much better
than half those given by travelling troupes,
and We hope the band boys will furnish u
with others. The proceeds OF their entertain
ments are to be used IN paving rent tor their
band room. tor fuel aud new music.
