Whenever the word "band " is men,
toned in connection with music, some
one will invariably revert to Carpenters
Cornet Band, as the model band of this
city in years gone by. There Ia no doubt
that the said band was first-class in every
particular and was made such by the eff
forts of good leader and the constant
practice Of each particular member. The
Maj. q. A. Angel Post Band is composed of
the young element mostly, who need just
such training and faithful practice to put
them on an equality with other bands of
the day. 1t cannot become &c. c. d. "
in few days, but earnest work will do
much to bring it to the front. II also
needs encouragement from those of our
citizens who are lovers of good music.
Nothing succeeds like success is an
old maxium and Post 90 Band will thrive
in proportion as 1t receives the support
and encouragement of the public. 1t has
organized to stay and the members, under
the leadership of Mr.. Charles Helms, are
making great Improvement in the use of
their respective instruments. In order to
raise fands to assist in replenishing instru-
ments, music, &C., the band will hold an
entertainment in Lyceum Hall, on Nov.
28th, Goth and Both. A liberal response
on tie part of the public will greatly as
sist the band in making itself first-cass
organization.

A couple of Augusta disciples of MINI
rod, while on recent cunning trip, after
hard days tramp succeeded in bagging
a small rabbit. They knew that the ami
NAL was good eating, but as to how to
cook him properly they were not as well
posted. They pondered long on the sub
ject until the pangs of hunger demanded
immediate action of some sort, when
they tied bunny up by the hind legs and
picked him as the good housewife does
q hen. They said he was good eating
just the same, with the exception of an
occasional tuft of fur which had escaped
the picking ocess.-Kennebec Journal.

The peculiar methods of voodoo doc
tor practicing at Madison, Ca, are thus
described: When he begins his practice
on a patient he gets pot and fills it with
water and roots and puts it on the fire to
boil. While the water boils he gets out
in the floor and shakes himself and says
"I'm buzzard I'm crow, I'm an eagle,
I'm kingisher," then goes over lot of
unintelligible incantations. He then
makes the patient look into the pot of
boiling water until he can see the one
who tricked him. The patient is visited
frequently at night. The pot with roots
and medicines is boiled, and the patient
must undergo thorough rubbing with
the contents of the pot, while the doctor
doing the rubbing goes over his incanta-
tiona EXCHANGE

congratulate Stephen A. Hurlbut
Post No. 9, G.. A. r. as I have no.
ticed by reading your paper that
their present worthy commander is
comrade S. w. Hoffman, a man that
l have long been acquainted with,
and serving in the same company
with him during the war, l know
his worth as a soldier. He was ever
ready for duty, yea, more, was al
ways ready for a fight, never had to
be urged to go, but was continually
urging others on to duty. Comrades,
it seems to me that you have chosen
a good commander, and the name of
S. w. Hoffman at the head of your
Post is a guarantee, in my mind,
that your post will not falter, but as
in the past, go ahead with mighty
speed until every old soldier around
Elk Point will join the ranks of the
G.. A. r. and not one be left out in
the cold. | can say the same of
your quartermaster, M. Hoffman.
He was a fighter, and was always
ready to say, come on boys, let us
give it to them. Comrade M. Hoff-
man was captured a few days after
/ was and we met at Atlanta, GA.
where We only stopped a short time
when we were taken, together with
Others to Richmond, and then we
were separated, Hoffman being ia
ken to Libby and | to Belle Isle
and there we were confined in those
Southern his for one long year.
Comrade H. has seen the elephant
with many others. In conclusion let
me say, work and cooperate with
all your officers, and the good work
will 60 on and our good work will
go on and our grand order will grow
stronger. Comrades, let me say
to you that our little post way down
in Southeast Neb. is growing-slow
for some time past, but nov we are
taking in one every two weeks. And
