marshaIrs Band Not Invited.

Topeka, Kas.. May 5, 1903
To the Editor of the State Journal:
A report is being circulated that the
reason Marshalrs band did not partici-
pate in the exercises the day the presi-
dent visited Topeka was because the
organization wanted SO much money for
their services that the committee who
had charge of arrangements could nor
consider same. This is a mistake, and il
doing the band great injustice. as the
organization did not even receive All
invitation. MaIshalls band would havs
been glad to have donated their serv-
ices ana the members would have coll
sidered themselves highly honored to
have had a place on the programme or
in the parade, and as no invitation or
communication of any kind was re
ceived in regard to the matter. it was
thought it had been decided to have nS
band music for this event. We would
consider il great favor If you can find
space in your next issue for this COM
nunicstion. Very truly yours.
