BAND CONCERTS TO BEGIN NEXT WEEK.

jX£he newly organized Rensselaer band has employed Prof. Weaver as instructor and will make its first public appearance on Decoration day. The first open air concert of the season will be given next Thursday evening, and on each Thursday evening thereafter during the summer. There is also some talk of. giving sacred concerts occasionally on Sunday afternoons in each of the two city parktf^/ It costs money to keep up a good band, yet there is scarcely anything that provides more real enjoyment than good music, and if called npon for a little assistance in keeping up an organization of this kind we believe onr citizens will respond with their usual liberality. The boys need several new instruments, we are told, and they would like also to have new uniforms, all of which cost money. Come out to the concert next Thursday night and enjoy yourself anyway.
