The New Instrumental Band. A meeting of -the-members of Howard Relief Fire Engine Company No. 1 was held at their Engine Hall on Friday night, or the purpose of taking the necessary steps looking to the organization of a com pany band. Mr. E. W. Doscher was called to the chair, and, Mr. J. G. L. Gieschen was re quested to act as secretary. On motion, a committee of three was ap pointed on constitution and by-laws, and three on membership. - On, motion, it was resolved that the strength of the band shall be fixed at from twelve to fifteen; that the membership should come entirely from the company, and the . organization should be entitled The JToicard Relief Cornet Band. The meeting adjourned to assemble again on Wednesday night next, the 17th inst , to hear the reports of the committees. The organization of this new band will be hailed with much satisfaction by the community. It will not only prove a valu able auxiliary to the company which, has inspired it, but will add to the musical talent of our city and its attractions. A Good Provider. A rather good but true story is told upon one of our business men. On last Tuesday he made an arrangement by which a friend was to send him from down the railroad about twenty pounds' of fresh beef for his Sunday's dinner. A few days later he was informed by a friend in the city that he intended killing a nice calf, when, forget ting his beef engagement, he spoke for about ten pounds of veal, also for Sunday, and on Saturday morning he went to the market, and forgetting his other transac tions, bought a ten-pound dressed turkey. The consequence was that the beef, .turkey and veal all came in, and it became neces sary for him to be a temporary seller as well as a permanent consumer. Sent on for Trial. The case of Thomas Whitfield, colored. charged with breaking into the store of Mr. J. M Hard wick, on Princess, between Eighth and Ninth streets, on Friday morn ing last, a full account of ' which appeared in the Star yesterday, came up before Mayor Hall yesterday afternoon, at 3 o'clock, and at the close of the testimony the defendant was ordered to give bond in the sum of $400 for' his appearance at the next term of the Criminal Court, in default of which he was committed to jail. The court room was crowded with friends of the prisoner during the progress of the investigation. . Foreign Shipments.

Yesterday afternoon the eight hundred feet of new linen hose, purchased for the fire department by Chief Myers, was tested in front of the City Hall and found to be all that was claimed for it There was' not a single leak.
