band are to stand this outlay person
ally, when there are so many
incidental expense which fail on
them individually. But it will not
cost great deal to maintain a band
after it is once on a solid footing.
About $500 annually covered the
expenses of the old band, of which
amount the members paid about
5000, the balance being raised by
subscription and concerts. Mr..
Adam Dresen is going to make
strong effort to re-estabhsh a good
band in Mineral Point. He has
had several experienced and desir-
able musicians visit this place lately
for the purpose Of finding employ
ment or to go into business, and the
chances are that some Of them will
come here aud locate in the near
future; aud if the band can be
started, other good players will come
in later. 1t is understood that a
committee will soon be appointed
to circulate a subscription list, and
if reasonable portion of the nee.
essary amount to start is subscribed
Ito be paid after q band is an as.
sured thing the balance will be
put in by the members. Thus it
can be seen that the hearty CO.
operation of all citizens is required
to secure and retain a good band.
