WEATHERWAX BROTHERS’ QUARTET.

The Weatherwax Brothers’ first public work was in the fall of ’96, when they sang throughout northern lowa in the notable McKinley campaign. They made such a hit everywhere that year that there was an immediate de mand for them to do other public work. This quartet, in addition to vocal music, also appears in a trumpet quartet which always brings forth the admiration of those who love rich, heroic

music. Trumpets are comparatively seldom used on the Lycetfm platform, and ii Is a treat to hear them when well played. The trumpets which they use were made specially for this quartet. As to their vocal work, all four brothers have fine voices and have had years of practice together, which has resulted in most excellent harmony. They have all been natural musicians from their infancy, and as some one has truly said, “Their voices have a decided family blend.” A unique feature of this organization Is that there are two readers in the comnanv Wil] be at the Christian Church Wednesday evening, March 17th. Program commencing at 8:25 p. m.
