the Knights Templar.

Mr.. Charles P. Salisbury, the city editor of
the Oshkosh Northeastern, Is a member of the
Arion band of Oshkosh, which is marching at
the head of Wisconsin commandery, No,
l, of Milwaukee. Mr.. Salisbury, in
talk with STAR reporter, said today:
"This is the fourth Knights Templar
gathering have attended, having been pres
ent at Cleveland, Chicago and st. Louis, and
may say without hesitation that SO far as quail
ity is concerned the collection of bands in line
on Tuesday was the finest I ever saw.
II would be a hard matter to saw
which organization in line was most deserving
OF praise Cappa's band is too well known for
Its excellence to need any praise. The Hamil-
ton band from Toronto, the second regiment
band from Chicago. and the Springfield band
also played in magnificent style. We are also
very proud OF our own band. Mr.. Cappa
said OF US that we were one of the
best in the city, which, coming
from such a source, is high praise. The Arion
band Is one Of the few organizations of its
kind, composed almost entirely OF business
men. There were from eighty-ive to ninety
bands in the line, averaging about twenty-five
men each, 30 you see there quite a little
army OF musicians alone. This estimate is not
counting the drum corps, Of which there were
about ten or twelve"
