THE SEASON, THUS FAR, has been the most
lively and brilliant ever held IN the city, and
has kept the musicians, especially those Of
the Omaha Musical Union orchestra, almost
nightly engaged. This excellent aggregation
has done some of its finest work this year.
1t has been strengthened beyond compare
with its former membership, and great deal
OF its strength comes not less from the
superior Individual merit of many of its latest
acquisitions than from the excellent manage
ment and direction which the organization
enjoys. 1t Is now delight to listen TO the
work of the orchestra, and the delight may
be experienced, whether in concert or on the
floor Of the ballroom.
