The director and his men, while desiring to make their program popular, have set a standard which they do not intend to lower, and consequently alwtiys present a program of nu in hers of which Wooster might well be proud, and such lis would , lie presented by the great concert bandit of the country. For those who like stirring rythm, there will he one of the linest marches ever written "Arms of America." by Pryor, one of the most popular bandmaster of America; "The Cocoa-nut -Dance," a standard 'number w.ith all concert bauds; the delightful "Harcarolle," from Offenbach's tuneful opera "Talcs of -Heftman,-''-npraiiH-ed as a concert waltz. For the lovers of standard classics, the famous "Haymand Overture," by Thomas, which, perhaps, next to the "Overtures to William Tell'' and "Tannhauser," i ntf.ist heard and ranks high in poularity. lor novelties, a new suite called the "Four Winds," made up of four numbers characteristic of the music of the four points or the compass; "By the Swnnes lllvcr," an Knglish composition popula.r with military bands across the sea. A peculiar Interest attaches to this composition for Director McAfee, because it was given to him by the orchestra men on the Caronia when the directo'r made his trip to Kngland two Hummers ago. This orchestra man was afterward leader of the orchestra on the Titanic on its ill-fated maiden trip, and perished with his noble band of mtisicans, who went down to a watery grave, playing their beloved instruments to cheer and comfort the passengers, until the mighty, ocean stilled their harmonics forever. 'I bis noble heroism and devotion to duty and music will es tablish their names forever in inusi i-al hi. dory as one- of the noblest musical performances on record. For these who like the lighter. d tinter numbers, Iheie will be played the famous "Till s Serenade" as a duct, for flute and horn by Meusrs Hess and Young, who play it like the artists and invaluable members of the baud they are, with a smoothness of tone and delightful finish; also the popular, catchy serenade, "liaby's Sweetheart." The vocal numbers will be given by (;e,orgo Brant. Hr-brnrrt many bands that have the good fortune to have such a popular vocalist in their ranks. A new ballad entitled "In the Isind ol Dreams," by (ieorge A. Keeg, a I'itlsburgh iriend of Director .McAfee, will have its first public performance. Tills ballad prou-lsi to be the big song success of the summer, The band will play tin accompaniment. Such a program of merit, novel I.v and at traclivness as the following deserves a packed house.
