The benefit concert rendered Prof. Fran.
cisco Touchon, by the Stonewall Brigade
Band last Tuesday evening was highly en-
joyed by one of Staunton's largest and
most fashionable audiences. IT'S scarcely
necessary to compliment the Bandits rep
utation is too well establlshed-but spe-
cial mention should be made Of individual
effort. The euphonium solo, ''See, the
Conquering Hero Coming" by MI. Ned
Dolan, accompanied by Prof. r. r. Webb,
on the piano. Mr.. Dolan showed marked
skill in his performance, which elected
frequent and hearty applause from the au-
dience. The Brass Quartette rendered
in most effective manner1,Go s
Last Hope, arranged by Mr.. E. M. Taylor.
A marked feature of the evening was the
performance Of Prof. Fred H. Gottlieb-
Baltimore s eminent flute soloist. Each of
Prof. Gottlieb's performances were greet
ed with repeated encOres. Tis seldom that
Staunton has such amusieal treat. At the
close of his last solo, Mr.. c. E. Haines pre-
sented Prof. Gottlelb, in behalf of Prof. lou
chon, beautiful silver householder as a
token of appreciation for the ready assist
ance extended to the Stonewall Brigade
Band. The baritone solo, ''Scenes that are
Brightest" played by Mr.. G. Harry
Haines and the Band Was especially good;
also the ''Russian Carriage song," by the
Band. Miss Maud L. Weaver gave two splen-
did selections from Chopin and Gilmore w.
Bryant, and Misses K. Blackburn and
Mary Wood gave a vocal duet, "When the
Stars are Brightly Shining The Musi-
clans Strike, OF Comic Tattoo, was very
amusing and well acted. The members of
the Band ,one by one, becoming dissatisfied
and leaving the discounted Professor-the
drummer alone remaining faithful to his
old Director. The concert closed with
American National Hymns" by the
Band, the selections being ''The Wearing
Of the Green" and Dixie which were
greeted as always with deafening applause.

In Honor Of Columbus.

Last Friday was the 4G0tn anniversary
of the discovery Of America, and was gala
day for the people of Staunton. Theday be-
ing legal holiday the banks, postoffice,
schools and many business houses were
closed. The exercises of the day opened at
the public schools from to 10 A. M, but
owing to the fact that no suitable place
services, special programme was carried
out in the separate rooms. Judge Charles
Grattan delivered an address before the
High School, which was considered to be
one of his best efforts. At St. Francis
school the programme published last week
was well carried out, and highly compli-
mented by all present. The feature of the
day, however, was the parade under the au-
houses along the line of March were hand
somely decorated with flags and bunting,
and much enthusiasm was shown.
Shortly after II O'Clock the procession
formed in front Of the Opera House, and
marched in the following order Captain
Waters with a squad of mounted police
Chief Marshal Burke and his aides, wear
ing blue sashes and on decorated horses
the Stonewall Brigade band; the Uniformed
Rank Knights of Pythias, numbering about
80 mounted men; the Catholic Hibernian
Beneficial Society, numbering about SO
men; carriages, and vehicles of all
kinds, containing the Mayor, City Council
and other officials, press representatives,
citizens and school children. Throngs OF
people crowded the sidewalks and from
every window and balcony along the line of
march handkerchiefs and flags were waved
as the procession passed. The line was
over half mile long and made most i'm.
posing parade. Returning the line was
dismissed at the Opera House.
Mr.. Edward Burke, the Chief Marshal,
deserves great credit for the way in which
the parade was COTTON up. 1t was one of
the largest that has been seen in the city
for some time, and everything worked as
smoothly as clock.
