The Washington Military Concert Band,
under the leadership of MIR. VIII A. Haley,
has already acquired high reputation for
it's excellent playing. 1t is perhaps the
best civilian brass band that has ever been
organized in WaShin gton, and it's life
has oeen longer than that OF any similar
organization in this District. For two years
it has given concerts. all of which have
been successful. This season Mr.. Haley
proposes to surpaSS even the former efforts
Of his band, and present programs which
shall be even more attractive than those
which have heretofore been given. The
first concert this season will be at the New
National Theater Sunday evening. the 2sth
inst. Among the numbers which will es
pee1olly attract the popular taste will be
Reeves War Memories, which will be Illus
trated by animated moving pictures, repre-
senting camp life, cavalry charge, a re-
view of troops, and various other scenes
in war life, all illustrated by appropriate

One of the first farces OF the season, which
is already over two months old Will be
. Miss Francis of Yale on her way to visit
Washington in December. Last year we
were threatened with deluge OF the simon
pHre quality of farce, the people wanted
1t and the dramatists tried TO give it, but
very few worthy survivors are still on the
board. Every season does not bear such
rare fruit a S & good farce. IAN the com
forts or Home,'' "CharIey's Aunt and
'-Wilkinson's Widows were the only sue.
frsses Of the ten years since the first Of
them was produced Last year was
phenomenal IN the production Of two, My
Friend From India and Miss Francis Of
Yale" A coincidence is found in the
;!tles which both begin with the letter M :"
each title contains four words and exactly
seventeen letters.
ItwiIlbe remembered that Miss Francis
is from the pen of Michael Morton, the
brother of Martha Morton, and the most
magnetic 9hd unique of our character
comedians, Etienne Girardot, played and
still plays the part of the Yale man who
acted female leads in varsity theatricals.
We say cur comedian because Mr.
Girardot has been kept in A merica by hts
Successes as 'Charley's Aunt" and Miss
FFaucis'' that he is part of the body of
resident artists. The farce is one OF the
feW a merican plays, Secret Service" and
My Friend From India being the other
two, which have gone to England and made
biz hits Miss Francis is being played by
l!Iec companies in England and by one
eachi in France and Italy.

Round Table

Well said Fred Wright trying to
think of his story and "A Contented Wom
an at the same time, many FCars ago
an unscruDulous bohemian by the name OF
Philip. about l O'Clock one sunday morn
ing, dashed almost breathleSS into the local
room of 4 Brooklyn PAPER. It's last form
was about to 5e sent TO the press when he
yelled a. the top OF his voice: i have got
piece " news that's worth 81 90 that III
sell for SO cash down. It's 'beaut,' ana
no other newspaper man in town knows
gord abousit. You must have it, andthere's
lot moment 10 be lost The 81 were
given him, when he announced That Just
as a Fulton ferry boat was entering theslip
few moments before her pilot had dropped
dead at her steering wheel There was no
one to notify the engineer to stop the
boats engine, and consequently she had
crashed against the apron of the landing
with fun force, killing an d manning a large
number of passengers.
AZ Philip claimed to be too nervous to
do it himself, reporter was detailed TO
wiite up brief description OF the az
fair from his statement for the first edition
Of the paper, while another conc0cted scare
heads t. 60 over It. All the reporters were
sent post haste to the scene OF the accident
to get fuller pa artioulars OF it, and rs many
OF the names as possible of the killed and
wounded foi later editions Of the paper
Philip slipped out unobserved.
When the reporters reached The ferry
slip they found that no such catastrophe
Of the KIND had occurred. The whole thing
had no existence. except in the imaginative
brain of the unscrupulous Philip, who af
terward was accused Of being the author
of Garfield's supposed Chinese letter which
came 70 uedr running that statesman's
chances for the Presidency. But mark
the Sequci, Less than two years after
this pilot OF d ferryhoat did drop dead n
the wheelof heart disease, and Lis ungut.ad
loat did crash into the ferry slip, but,
fortunately, She neither killed nor crippled
any OF her crew OF her passengers. What
might happen did occur.
In the dramatic field the same coincf-
dences are shown Wheu Hoyt wrote his
'Contcnted Woman and made its heroine
defeat ter husband for the ma yoralty OF
Denvcr, people laughed at the idea as
supremely ridiculous Bat at the last
