The LAST OF THE CoNoERTs.-The last of
the free open air concerts was given on the
Plaza last evening by the First Artillery
Band. 1t was largely attended. The night
was one of the most delightful of moonlights,
and slight humidity of the atmosphere added
much to the effectiveness of the music There
! have been given seventeen of these free con-
certs. They began about the first of June,
and were only interrupted by the absence of
the band at Camp Brown in one week and
engagements during the State Fair for an
other week. The concerts have been given
under the management of Messrs. W. r.
Ormsby and j. o. Coleman, acting for
large number of citizens who subscribed
the necessary funds. So successful
has the scheme proven, and such has
been the hearty response of the people to the
effort, that already steps are being taken to
secure the opening of the next season of this
kind of free public entertainment at much
earlier date than was done this year. In this
matter there has evidently been entire unset
fishness, and a genuine desire to contribute
to the pleasure of the people. The SUBJ
scribers' names have not been paraded, and
no person has sought to make the concerts
means to selfish ends The band has done
well it has given two concerts per week for
very much less than regular fees, has shown
an earnest desire to please, and has dis
coursed music entirely acceptable, and with |
much credit to itself. Since the foregoing
was written the band, escorted by the COM
mittee of management, has complimented the
RECORD UNION by charming midnight ser
l.. r. ( IT,
Moonlight Serenade" with baritone solo, |
"When the Swallows Homeward Fly" |
(quickstep), and 1.-The Home-run Galop."

Yard, and necessarily Deputy Warden of the |
State Prison at Folsom, vice Benjamin |
Chambers resigned. Captain Towle's admin |
