The Italian.

Italy is still sending over sea swarms
of her people who risk the hazards of
new fortunes in the United States,
and the steamships from the Mediter-
ranean bring hosts of steerage passen-
gers to Ellis Island. The sturdy sons
of Italy toll industriously in their new
homes, and almost every one of them
saves money in the new world. But
too many of them go back to their old
homes to live on their savings Too
many persist in remaining Italian in
heart and soul, in habits and sym
patlies and wages of living, and re-
fuse to cast their lot in this hemis-
phere to the end of their days and to
become thorough Americans
The Italian element both in North
America and South America is nulner-
Gus and important. Too large a part
of it, however, is transitory. Immi-
grants from Ireland Germany, Swed.
en- and all the scandinavian peoples
cross the Atlantic with the purpose of
staying permanently in this half of
the globe. But the passion for the old
scenes and the old conditions appears
to be almost ineXtinguishable among
the descendants of the ancient Romans

Band Concerts.

The Tribune is informed that with
but very little assistance from the
merchants and business men, the Flor
ence Military band will be willing to
give weekly open air concerts from
May to September of the coming sum
mer. The band is in need of couple
more instruments and couple more
uniforms. 1t will be remembered that
the Elks furnished the band with the
uniforms il has. but the membership
has been increased by two or three
musicians, hence the need of more in
struments and uniforms.
We take it that every business man
in town will be willing to assist the
band and very little from each will
aggregate considerable amount, and
If this will insure weekly open air
concerts the giving will be all the
more cheerful. We hope the matter
will be taken up at once. The band
hes made rapid improvement since Is
organization and it is ,credit to the
city.
We believe that its free concerts
will be appreciated by the people and
that anything the band needs will be
Forthcoming.
