To Mr. R. O. Bowers the people of Mont
pelier are indobted for the delightf ul enter
talnment glven by Sousa's Band ln Armory
Hall last Monday eveulng. Nearly 800 peo
ple were in attondance, includiug 300 from
Barre and Burrounding towns. The concert
was personally onduoted by John Phllip
Sousa, the distinguished composnr and

skilled hand of Sousa, the playlng of this

tone, preclsion and brllliancy of executlon,

that uas been heard in this clty for years.
Tho programuie was varied and included
"Klng Cotton March," wrltten by Sousa,
and Wasrner's "Lohengrin" wedding
march. The tromboue solo by Mr. Arthur
Pryor showed bim to be a perfect master of
that instrument. Miss Minnle Tracey, the
dramatlo soprano, was very cordlally re

Martina Johnstone, tho violin sololst, came
in for a full share of the honors of the eveu

technlque and brilliant executlon, to which
is added a lovoly temperament and a grace
ful and charming personality. After hear-
