The piano market still holds up It's

There is considerable gossip In mu-
steal circles over the recent visit OF
Sousa's band, ana It's remarkably fine
artistic work Musicians remark that
Sousa did especially we'll In "Parslfal"
music; In fact, It's presentation was
considered the most intelligent ever
given In this part Of the country by
any concert band Then the perform
ance OF the Haende' Largo, by the
great organ ana band together, Is stlll
commented on as most remarkable.
Both band and organ were In perfect
accord, as the band plays the low pitch
instruments, ana the organist followed
perfectly the movements Of the con-
ductors baton
An incident occurred In connection
with the last Sousa concert that was
amusing and rather annoying at
the same time. The lady artists
had a dressing room on the
south side OF the organ, against the
wall, and one would every few mo-
ments try her voice, and the other pick
on the strings Of her violin, while sew
eral of their friends engaged in lively
conversation. About everything that
was said and sung back there, and
the drumming on the violin, could be
heard distinctly all over the rear OF
the house, and the pastoral passage in
the Tell overture was practically spoil
ed by this entirely impromptu obllgato.
AZ the same time the ladies had no
idea anything they said or did could be
heard out In front, and when their at
tentIOn was called TO the matter after
ward, they thought their informant was
Just foolng The moving about OF
the heavy trunks and packages at the
rear stairway too did not help mat
ters any The parties engaged In this
did not understand the acute acoustic
properties OF the Tabernacle, or doubt
less they would have been more care
full
