AT Sousa's band concert last night at
the opera-house, in response to an en-
core, the band gave a medley of Amerl-
can airs amidst much applause. When
THE Star-Spangled Banner was
reached the band arose. For moment
the audience, which was loudly ap-
plauding, did not take the hint-our
audiences are unaccustomed to paying
such tribute-then one man rose, then
another, and then a third, and next
woman. and them the entire audience OF
nine hundred people stood up and ap-
plauded We do not recall that this
has ever been done before in Sacramen-
to except on two occasions. and on both
those there was lack of unanimity
and some apparent confusion of
thought as to what was meant. Last
night however, the people received a
lesson from Sousa and took it gladly.
After ALL then, patriotic manifestation
of this order has not been refined out
of Sacramento gatherings. For a
long time at the East American audi
eDces have been accustomed to rise
whenever America or THE Star
Spangled Banner are sung or played
but the patriotic custom has not
reached here with much vigor. Here
after let it be hoped this beautiful trib-
ute to our land will be uniformly paid
on occasions of large or small gather
