Famous Italian
Band to Be Here

Enthusiastic accounts are coming
from the south about Chiaffarelli
Royal Italian Band which is to ap-
pear at the Ashland Mineral Springs
on Tuesday, October 20. San Fran
cisco and Oakland have been visited
by the organization, where they were
greeted by large audiences at each
concert. The performance to be CIV
en- in our city promises to be very
interesting, the program including
many favorite selections, such as II
Trovatore, quartette from Rigoletto,
sextette from Lucia, overture Poet
and Peasant, The Rosary, etc.
Chiaffarelli toured the Pacific
coast as director of the well-known
Ellery's Band in 1903, and at that
time the press said that he is a won
der, such directing never being seen
here before, giving results that sim
ply lift you off your feet and watts
you into glorious musical skies. So
great has been the satisfaction ex-
pressed among the music-loving peo-
pie throughout the country that
Chiaffarelli has been presented with
several gold medals by prominent
managers of the leading amusement
nlaceS in America
There are many soloists in the
band and will appear in the concert
on Monday evening. A grand ball
will follow the concert.

In the Social Realm


a play that the older ones used to
play when young. The third form of
entertainment was the playing of cha
rades, one being the word "cir-cum-
vent" and the other being "Sing-a-
pore" Each word was presented in
three scenes and three acts. This
was the most amusing thing of the
evening. 1t was remarked that it
was a good thing that Professor Vim
ing was not there as he would have
the two charades put on in place of
Baby Mine" The fourth event on
the program was ten oneminute
speeches, one minute and no more.
The orators who took part in this
were Mrs. Patty, Mr. Swingle, Mr..
Boyd, Mr.. and Mrs. Milan and Mr..
Hill. If Champ Clark, our Teddy or
Chauncey Depew could have heard
the speeches they would have blushed
with envy. Then came storytelling
for about fifteen minutes, in which
contest all took part. The stories
told would make book if collected
together under one binding. And
now, last but not least, came the re-
freshments, prepared by Mrs. Boyd.
Talk about good things-yum, yum.
After these were enjoyed the guests
departed homeward, wishing Mr..
Boyd and Mr.. Powell many happy re-
turns of the day. and asked that
they might be invited the next time
anything similar occurred. Those
present were: Mr.. and Mrs. Powell,
Mr.. and Mrs. Swingle and son, Mr..
and Mrs. Holmes, Mr.. and Mrs. E. n.
Smith and daughter Leona, Mr.. and
Mrs. Anderson and daughter, Mr.. and
Mrs. Abbott, Mr.. and Mrs. Hill and
daughter, Mr.. and Mrs. Dennis, Mr..
and Mrs Espy and son, Mr.. and Mrs.
Hill, Mr.. and Mrs. Milan, Mr.. and
Mrs. McAllster and son, Mr.. and
Mrs. Lemery, and Mr.. and Mrs. Patty
