Boys’ Band to Have Fifteen New Members This Winter.

Prof. Otto Braun continues to make good with the boys’ band and the weekly concerts attract good crowds and the music is enjoyed by all. The regular weekly practice is Monday night, but this week it was held Tuesday night instead. Prof. Braun is greatly pleased with the manner in which the youngsters have maintained interest and he has discovered that a number of the members of the ban! are talented young musicians. There are now twenty members of the band. This number will be augmented by about fifteen additions this fall when the winter practice is started and next summer’s band should be one of the best Rensselaer has ever had. Thursday of next week the b >ys will go to Fountain Park to play, the invitation extended by the association leaving been accepted. Owing to this fact, next week’s band concert will be held on Wednesday night instead of Thursday night.
