Richmond Audience, Lured by
Stirring Strains Of Star
SpangIed Banner, Shows It
Has Patriotism.
LITTLE FILIPlNOS
WATCH WITH INTEREST
Crack ConstabuIary Band,
Part of Uncle Sans Island
Army, Delighted Crowd
With Its Performance.

AS the inspiring tones of Star
Spangled Banner" broke out in sweet
cadence from the Philippine constabu-
larry band at the Gennett theatre last
evening the audience arose to it's feet,
as one person. 1t was the first time a
local audience has shown it's love of
country and appreciation of music in
this manner. 1t was the end Of the
program, but the audience did not arise
because of that fact. There seemed
to be something occult that made the
spectators arise with the band. Local
audience claim to be patriotic, but it is
seldom they are moved to such an ex-
tent they leave their seats. Witness
the confusion and noise that prevailed
when the Tenth United States Innfan-
try in camp in this city had color serv-
ices and as the band played the ma
tional air, every soldier stood at at
tention.
The Constabulary band deserved a
great deal larger audience than greeted
1t. 1t is an organization second to none
and besides the usual bana instruments
there is to be found a complete SYM
phony orchestra among the players.
The band numbers more than eighty
pieces. Every man is native Flip
pino and it was the first time a group
of representatives of the island posses
sions has visited Richmond. Judged
from the size ofthe audience present.
1t will not be a very favorable impress
sion.
The largest musical organization ever
to visit this city is directed by Captain
Walter Loving, negro. Capt. Loving
enlisted in the Spanish war and saw
service In Cuba. He continued viii the
army and went to the Philippines.
While there he secured the consent and
organized a small band The quality
of the organization was appreciated by
President elect Taft. then governor of
the Philippines and through his in
fluence, Loving was permitted to or
ganize constabulary band. 1t is said
upon the special invitation of Taft. the
band has travelled the thousands OF
miles from the Philippines and will be
present and play for the inaugural
ceremonies at Washington. On its
eastward trip through this country the
organization has played at only the
principal cities. Richmond being the

Plant to Supply Street
Lighting, But Arrangements
Are Not Perfected.
R. ASHE OF RICHMOND is
BACK OF MOVEMENT
Under the Proposed Plan, City

And to Supply the Neces-
sary equipment.

1t was stated by Charles Rogers,
superintendent of the Municipal cleo
trio light plant today, that no ar
rangement has been made with Rob-
ert Ashe whereby power for the
street lighting system at Liberty Is
to be furnished by the local plant.
The subject is in contemplation and
Mr. Ashe has been in conference with
the officials of the municipal plant
but no agreement has resulted. Ashe
has been given a twenty-five year
contract at Liberty. The corporation
has the privilege of taking over the
equipment at any time upon agree
ment and a fair appraisment as pro-
vided in the contract.
Terms of Contract.
Rogers says it will not require a
great deal of additional power at the
municipal plant to supply the current
for Liberty Under the proposed
agreement the city plant is simply to
furnish the power and Ashe is to in
stall the line. poles and all other
necessary equipment to carry the cur.
rent the sixteen miles. The terms
of Ashes contract with Liberty pro-
vide that he is to furnish the service
or not to be paid. So long as the
service remains satisfactory, within
the twenty-five years the agreement
is to continue. Deduction is to be
made for all shortage. The street
lights will not be arc but Tungsten

Satisfied With Ashe.
The Liberty town board had its
troubles before awarding the contract
But these were decreased materially
when Ashe proposed a junketing triI
such as was used to influence local
councilmen at the time the municipa
plant was contemplated and when
the Liberty folks returned from Brad
| ford, Ohio, they were satisfied. Al
Bradford they had seen a system sim
| liar to that proposed for their towr
| by Ashe and he was named as the
man at the head Of the company
The councilmen came to Richmond
afterward and according to the Liber

The Inequalities of taxation under

desire to say that there are only three
