MUSICAL UNION.
First July Meeting Scheduled for the
Glorious Fourth at Eleven A. NJ

The Musicians Protective Union
will hold its regular semi-monthly
meeting at Bruse's hall Sunday morn
ing at IL O'Clock. This is the first
Sime in the history of this organiza-
ton that a meeting has fallen upon
the glorious Fourth. and the mem
bers are talking about making it
in point of attendance
and interest.
There is little apart from routine
business to be taken care of. Sew
eral matters will be reported upon
Among them will be the matter of
the Lindell hotel. A committee
called upon Steve Hoover to see him
about employing student musicians,
and he readily agreed that hereafter
if the hotel furnished music to its
guests it would come from instru-
ments in the hands of union musi-
clans. The student orchestra has
disbanded for the summer, and so far
as the Lindell hotel under the pres
ent management is concerned it will
be no more. The matter of the Elite
theatre will be reported upon.
Park concerts are now an assured
fact. Professor August Hagenow
took the matter up and the money
has been raised for a series of twenty
or twenty-five concerts, and there
will be at least two week al
Antelope Park beginning early this
month Professor Hagenow is now
drilling band for concert purposes
OF course it will be union band
! Professor Hagenow has been an
honorary member of the union since
its organization, but he has taken
out an active card.
The opening of Capital Beach has
added something to the opportunities
of union musicians. 1t gives employ
ment to a band and orchestra By
the way. Capital Beach is more in
viting than ever this year. and it is
deserving of the patronage of the
whole people.
The musicians who turned out. de
spite the busy times, and helped te
make the Raymond Robins meetins

of the unionists of the city. and the
thanks are forthcoming, too The
editor has heard many good word:

TYPOGRAPHICAL UNION.
Printers Will Meet and Witness the
Installation of New Ofiicers.

Lincoln Typographical Union No.
20s will meet Sunday afternoon at
2:S0 at Fraternity hall. Because it
is the Fourth of July and nothing
else on in the way of celebration,
there is every reason why there
should be an unusually large attend
ance. One of the features OF the
meeting will be the installation of
the new officers who will guide the
destinies of the organization for the
ensuing year.
The matter of affiliating with the
Nebraska State Federation of Labor
will also come up, and the consti-
tuition of that organization will be
submitted.
There will be some organization
talk. too, as the printers are little
bit anxious to have a closer under
standing of the uses of that instru-
ment of unionism.

ALLIED TRADES SMOKER.
Printing Craftsmen Get Together ane
Talk Over the Situation.

The smoker rendered by the
Typographical Union to the allied
printing crafts of the city was held
last Tuesday night at Fraternity hall.
and from every point of view it was
a success. Representatives of every
printing trade save one-the stereo-
typers-were present and enjoyed
the union-made cigars and the several
good union talks. George Locker,
president of the Allied Printing
Trades Council, presided with dig
nifty and kept the matters going at
a lively rate until eleven o'clock
Those who attended were rejoiced
to meet Robert Checking. president
of the International Brotherhood OF
Bookbinders. He made a rousing
good organization talk early in the
evening. and then later he made a
union label talk that caused the
craftsmen to sit up and take notice.
Mr.. Glocking is forceful speaker
who wastes few words in getting to
the points he wants to cover. He
gave the careless union men several
home thrusts for their failure to
make the label the greatest weapon
in the union armory.
The uses and abuses of the
LABEL was a subject assigned to w
NJ. Maupin. but he begged off from
discussing it to any extent, giving as
| his excuse the fact that he ha6
been too busy with other matters oi
igreatest importance for few days
Fred Nickel and F. NJ. Coffey of ths
Typographical Union. and Walter
Brown and Col. Brooks of the Press
men were among others who SPOKE
to the point. All the talks Were
along the line of bettering conditions
not only for the union printing crafts
men. but for the fair employers.
The smoker" was a splendid sue
cess and those who engineered i
are entitled to the thanks of tn,
printing craftsmen.

and while here he performed some
good work in the way of arousing in
terest in the union of his craft He
did not find affairs in the very best of

to go the limit in increasing the neu-
merical and mental strength of the
organization in the capital city He
addressed an open meeting of book
binders at Fraternity hall at 1:50 on

bered spot.
Just before turning into the chan
mel proper the Kapolei. with George
, Renton at the helm, ran up to greet
the Luka. The way this craft was
handled was treat to watch, and
her skipper did some fine work at the
tillcr among the shoals and between
the bcaCOns.
Half dozen power boats cam,
out to meet the buka, and the Ha'
waiian band, under Captain Berger''
control, played some stirring airs
The band was comfortably fixed on
board the Mokolii and during tn,
run down gave some choice selec.
tions.
The Luka Is very comfortable
craft to travel on, and all the ar
rangements were perfect. There was
an abundance of chairs, and awnings
were opened over the decks. Reclln-
ing in one of the Wicker chairs with
good cigar and a Cockney for COM
pany seemed as near to heaven as a
newspaper man my ever expect to
get--the Cockney acted as tonic
and supplied the necessary fun.
The Mokolii, with the Luka In tow,
reached the rendezvous at O'Clock
and everyone quickly scampered
ashore. The rest of the feet arrived
shortly afterwards-the Gladys in
the lead-and then there was a call
to kaukau. And say didn't the
bunch do Justice TO the refresh
ments? There was an abundance
of good things and plenty of soft
stun" to wash II down with.
Luncheon over. the band went
over to the pavilion and soon the
ever-popular two-step and giddy
waltz were in full swing. The dane
ing was continued for an hour or
so and. then the order "All aboard
was given.
The yachts got away In good time
and the Hawaii was the last to leave,
at $3.50. The Iuka, once more in
tow of the Mokolii, started of
amidst strains of Aloha oe, and the
Blu letin representative, losing
his pal. the Cockney, beat It for the
train so as to be in time to see the
n, G. II. hand out the lemon to the
Skaters. Just as the train ran into
the Honolulu a tremendous roar was
heard from Aala Park and - but
that's another story.
The following yachts took part in
the outing: The Hawaii, Gladys,
Kamehameha, Charlotte C., Spray
and Helene. The Luka, Ke-Haulani.
Mokolii and half dozen other craft
sweIled the ranks of the excursion
lists and formed fine sight as the
whole feet sailed down the coast.
The yachts all got home in good
time, and the Mokolii, with the Luka
aud Spray In tow. arrived safely some
time after the sailing bunch reach
ed the harbOr.
