Clarke.. .. ....Cornetist; Iusic lovers of Columbia and near by towns ae taking great interest in the forthcoming conclert by Sousa and his band and this means all classes of mu<?e lovers, Ltcai.e the Sousa or ganization appeals to all. It appeals with its classic music to those who are well-up in music and with its fiery crashing marches, stirring hearts and quickening pulses to all others. It seems a "cinch" to use trite expres sion to predict that the concert in Co lumbia will be a big success, both on account of the high merit and popu larily of the band and of Sousa the .march king himself. The band jumps from Cincinnati, Ohio, to Asheville and goes from Ral eigh.to Washington then to New York to start on a world-wide tour, appear ing in only 10 cities in the entire South.. The sa)le of seats will start Monday, December 5. Mail order filled in the order received. Prices at nigtt 25c., 50c., 75c., $1.00 and $1.50. Matinee prices 25c, 50c., 75c., and $1.00. Thinking that music-lovers of South Carolina will be interested in kn~w ing just what selections will be ren dered by the band at the concert, the management makes public the follow ing programme, which, however, does not include a big list of popular en cores: 1. Symphonic Poem, "Les Preludes" .......................Liszt "What is life but a series of pre ludes to that unknown song whose initial solemn note is tolled by death? The enchanted dawn of every life is i Love. But where is the destiny on I whose first delicious joys some storm i breaks not; some storm whose deadly blast disperses youth's illusions; whose fatal hoat consumes its altar? And what soul thus cruelly bruised, when the tempest rolls away, seeks not to resist its memofies in the1 pleasant calm of rural life. Yet man r allows himself not long to taste the| kindly quiet which first attracted himl to nature's .lap; but when the trumpet|t signal sounds, he runs to danger's|g post, whatever be the fight that calls|g him to its lists, that in the strife he may once more gain full knowledge of himself and all his strength." Other Numbers. 2. Cornet Solo, "Showers of Gold" (Oiarke) -Herbert L. Clarke. 3. Character Studies, "The Dwellers in the Western World" (new)-Sousa, (a) The Red Man.

Then spoke the mate, "This mad sea shows its teeth tonight, He curls his lips, he lies in wait, with lifted tusk as if to bite." Ah that night! Of all dark nights! And then a speck A light! A light! A light! It grew, a star-lit flag unfurled; It grew to be time's burst of dawn; he gained a world; he gave that world its grandesf iesisony-"on and on." (c) The Black Man. "Now, de blessed little ange:ls up in heaven, we are told, Don't do nothin' all dere life-time 'ceptin' play on harps o' gold."
