COLLINS BAND CONCERT.
OF Master Dana Holt, the boy cornetist,
who appears at the concert of the First
Regiment Band at City Hall, next Monday
evening, the Boston Globe says: Manager
Austin happily named last evenings concert
at Music Hall. for it was in sense New
York Night An audience of music-loving
Hubbites, which packed the hall and over
flowed to the corridors, listened with delight
and applauded until exhausted to coterie
of artists from among the refining favorites
apparently about years of age, performed
couple OF lively fantasies on the cornet in
manner which would have done credit to
many an older performer"
Mr.. Robert l.. Whitcomb, who is to appear
in the concert to be given on Monday even
ing next by Mr.. Collins and the First Regi-
ment Band is a Portland boy and well-known
to many of our readers. His readings are of
high order and we doubt not he will add
new laurels to his well earned reputation on
Monday evening next.
