PIONEER BAND
 ASKS FOR HELP
Requests Common Council to Make Monthly Appro- prlatiOn in Order That Regular Weekly Plaza Concerts May Continue.

So far as the Pioneer Band is con- cerned the most important matter to be taken up at the adjourned meeting of the common council this evening will be the application of that organization for a small appro- prlation each month to be utilized in making, part payment of a leader for hls services, as well as the part appearing in the concerts held each Sunday evining in the city hall plaza. It IS said that the proposition meets with the approval of most of the members of the common council
 For a long time the Pioneer Band has depended upon voluntary con- tributions from the business men for the regular weekly concerts. The contributions usually have been in sufficient to buy the necessary music and to make any sort of payment to the leader. It is pointed out that there is no more popular form of Tree entertainment in the city than the open air concerts Of the band Each Sunday night hundreds of citi- zens gather in the plaza or sit in their automobile along the curb line in front of the city hall

BAZAAR A GREAT SUCCESS
Receiving Most Liberal Patronage
Fine Program Last Night

The bazaar which the Catholic ladies
are holding in the Urquhart building is
proving a great success and is re-
ceiving a most liberal patronage from
the good people of Moscow.
Last evening thely presented a fine
program which was much enjoyed by
the many people present. The first
number was a violin solo by Mrs.
ter. 1t had been feared that the lit
tie folks in attendance might be noisy,
but like their elders they listened en-
tranced, and all refused to be satisfied
until the ladies had responded to an
encore.
Miss French followed with a reading
of a most pathetic Irish poem. Her
voice showed at is best, and she was
recalled vociferously, and responded
with the pitcher of Killane."
Mrs. White played Listz's "Cantique
D'Amour," and so pleased the audience
that they recalled her to give them
another.
Miss Stevens then danced for the
audience in the Irish peasant costume,
was called back for an Irish reel,
and again for some other fancy dance.
1t seemed as if the audience would
never be satisfied.
Mr.. Ralph Green closed the program
with a piano selection, and respond
ed to an encore with another one
Mr.. Green is a musician of great
promise, deservedly popular for his
to please.
There will be brief program pre-
,ented this evening. 1t will consist
If singing and dancing.
