teur band, and both had their
special friends and admirers. Nat
urally considerably amount of
rivalry arose, and at times 1t almost
reached the boiling point. It has
been sincerely wished oftentimes
that the bands could be CONSOLE
dated, and hence we say that the
adjustment comes as very agree
able announcement.
Under the present arrangement
it is predicted that Union City is to
have better band organization
than she has ever had. With Mr..
Tate as leader, and several others
Of splendid local talent in the band
who had temporarily dropped
music, there IL no reason why we
shouldn't have the pleasure Of some
very excellent concerts--in the park
in the summer and In the opera
house in the winter. A subscrip-
ton list has already been taken for
the summer concerts by the FIRST
Regiment Band, and we presume
the consolidated band will carry
out the agreement.
We feel like the band as consoli-
dated, 10 one Of our worthy enter
prises and deserves the hearty in
iorsement and support OF all our
:itizens. No doubt the new band
will draw large crowds to the sum-
ner concerts. Mr.. Tate is now ar
-anging series Of concert selec-
lions for summer use.

Cuts His Neck.

Mr.. Erve Stephens, a very worthy
and esteemed citizen living in ths
Immediate vicinity of Sanders
Chapel, attempted to cut his throat
last Monday morning early, inflict.
ing three gashes on his neck, with
out fatal results, however. Only
one of the wounds was serious. and
that was closed up with stitches.
It seems that Mr.. Stephens had
brooded over his troubles until his
mind was not altogether clear. He
had let the suggestion take hold of
him that somebody wanted to rob
him of his land, and his mental
and physical condition were not ex-
actly normal when he undertook to
end his trouble.
Monday morning when his
daughter, Miss Lizzie. was at a
neighbours house, Mr.. Stephens
went to his room. drew the blinds
down, made palate on the floor
and got vessel to empty the blood
in. He then took his pocketknife
and tried to cut his throat, with
the result as before stated. Mr..
Stephens has been resident of
that vicinity for many years, rear
ing a large family. all the children
being married but two, a young
lady and young gentleman, who
live with him at home. His wife
has been dead some years.
We understand that Mr.. Stephens
is very sorry Of the act. He said
Tuesday, feeling as he did then,
he wouldn't have done 1t for any
consideration.

The belt runs from Central America mp through Cali fornia, and swings around in a semicircle along the coast of Alas ka and the Orient to the Philip, pines. Most of the line runs in the ocean, but it is mapped as striking western Alaska and in- cluding all the AIeutian islands Most of the recent severe Quakes have been in this belt, and less than month ago there was very severe shock at Unalaska, accom- panied by a volcanic eruption It IS to investigate tbis matter further that scientific men will visit Una laska this summer.
