 For the past five or six weeks the subject of a band has been agitated among local musicians. canvass of the local musicians shows that brass band of experienced players in brass can be formed here. The one reason it isn't formed here just now is the lack of tuba player. Not that we are destitute of tuba players, but that tuba player can not play many other brass instruments in the same day, and one tuba player of our town just at this season of the year has considerable business on the trombone. If there is any player of brass in town who will play tuba. let it be known to E. W. Adams and band can undoubtedly be started at once.
