MUSIC, PROGRAM
OF COUNTY FAIR
PERHAPS MOST ATTRACTIVE EV
Ev HEARD HIRE HAS BEEN
ARRANGED.
BY GAN MILITARY ORCHESTRA
Classic and Popular Selections Are
Mixed-t1orse Show Music
Especially Good.

The prettiest feature OF the Maury
County Fair in past years and one
that has doubtless afforded greater
pleasure to the thousands than any
other has been the music. Prof Kopp
and his band could not be excelled
for band of the size, but in keeping
with the idea of progress maintained
by the officials of the fair, 1t was de-
cidedthis year to get larger band
and perhaps a better band that
Kopps, so Cans great military band
Of Louisville was secured. This band
contains thirty high-class instrument
tai performers besides half dozen
grand opera singers, and when 1t
comes to Columbia next week will be
in chrage OF that famous conductor,
Prof. l. S. Loos.
Realizing that the public appreci-
ates mixed program, that is some
classical selections and some popular
selections, Prof Loos has arranged a
program for the horse show here
which he believes will appeal TO and
please all classes. The program for
the five nights of the horse show has
ben arranged as follows:
Tuesday Night.

days in jail yesterday afternoon by
