DeBaugh's Band Endorsed.


For the past two seasons DeBaugh's
Twentieth Century band, which will
be the leading musical attraction at
the corn belt exposition in this city,
has played at Sans souci park,
Chicago, with wonderful success.
Alfred Russell, the president of the
park association, gives Prof. De
Baugh and his band the following
high endorsement.
The concerts, rendered daily. for
the past two seasons, at Sans Soucl
Park, by DeBaugh and his 10th
Century Band, are a constant source
of delight to our patrons and OF pride
to the management.
DeBaugh is young, progressive ano
essentially original in his methods.
The result of this is that his pro,
grammes possess a distinct indiyid.
uality, which for novelty OF idea,
dash and brilliancy OF execution, anc
undoubted popularity with the public,
have never been surpassed.
His megaphone quartette anc
chorus is undoubtedly the most pop
ular novelty, ever introduced by {
band master, and never fails to hole
and win the applause Of the audience
I predict for DeBaugh and hi
band, during their coming tour, ONT
of greatest popular artistic successes
ever achieved.
