WASHINGTON, May 6.-Great interest
10 felt in the reported return of the
Spanish Cape Verde feet to Cadiz. but.
while admitting the possibility of the
fast vessels Of the Spanish flying squad.
ron making the passage in the five
days that the vessels have been out
from St. Vincent, the naval officers
were disposed to regard with great sus.
picion news of this kind emanating
from Portnga! because of the reoog.

the Spanish side. 1t would be worth q

Help tho Band.

The City band is at PRESENT. with
out an instructor, the band not be-
ing able to pay a leader. 1t is also
in debt somewhat. The band has
had a hard struggle to keep going.
The members have put q great ,deal
of time and money into the organi-
zation, and made many personal
sacrifices in its interest. The series
OF concerts given during last winter
did not prove the financial success
that they should. The band now
finds itself in q position where it
must be helped or it must d'sband.
1t is needless to enter upon the ad-
vantages of having a good band.
They are apparent to all. What is
contemplated now is to ask the pub.
lie, this week or next, through the
circulation of subscription paper,
to help the band to raise enough
money to keep an instructor. Should
this be successful the band will give
a street concert once week. II not,
the organization will break up, and
Memorial Day, the Fourth of July,
and other national holidays will be
conspicuous by the absence of the
band. The band is unsteady in
good condition, has developed won
derfuliy, and it certainly would be a
pity to have it break up now. The
boys deserve all tho help the citizens
can give them.
