A TREAT OF A LIFE TIME. Dan. Godfrey's British Guards Band Which Will be at the Academy the 17th. The music-Ioviug people of this sec tion have an opportunity of a life time offered them next Friday in the coming of Dan Godfrey's British Guards Band at the Academy. This is about the tenth concert given Bince the organization landed on Ameri can soil, the first very appropriately be ing given in Washington, speaking of which, in a long article, the Washington Post says: "The first concert of Lieut. Dan God fray's British Guards Band, now on a tour of the United States, was given in this city yesterday afternoon. The event proved a revelation of the varied power of art in music and masterful technique combined. Music lovers expected a great deal of the famous band of Eng lish musicians, but the actual perform ance no doubt far surpassed expecta tions. "At the Columbia Theater the very first regular number on the programme, the 'Wilhelm Tell' overture, brought the house down, and the balance of the con cert caused one continuous ovation. To those who love musical productions mere ly because of the blending of harmonious sounds, and to those who also study ami cherish the art in all its higher forms. the concert was a rare musical treat. "It would be an exaggeration to place the band on a par with the great sym phony orchestras so far as the true musi cal value of their productions is concern ed, but as band concerts they seem to have reached the pinnacle of excellence. The quality of tone produced by the com bination of instruments was simply won derful." Reserve seats now on sale. Re serve seats in gallery will be on sale Mon day morning at the Academy of Music box office. ODD FELLOWS' COLUMN. Where is that boom in the lodges in Raleigh all were told to look for; A letter from Bro. Bowden ut Knotts Island says: "Our lodge is prospering." Grand Treasurer R. J. Jones, of Wil mington is still hale and "l'any in his seventy eighth year. Harmony Lodge, No. ltl.J is the babj recently christened at Shelby, but No. 200 at McAdensville will som occupy the cradle. Our recent re-organization at YaJkiDs- ville esems to have been quite a success. as the Secretary informs us, the mem bership has doubled. The usual anniversary proclamation is being sent out to the lodges in this State, ind the 2tth of April will be duly cele brated us the eightieth anniversary. The Grand Lodge of the State will convene here on Tuesday, May the 9th next; and we have heard very little said lmong the brethren about its coining, rhe presume they wil vbgkqj xz!:tlffi We presume they will wake up in time to eceive the brethren. Ruth Rebekah Lodge will have (he honor, as well as pleasure, soon, of ini tiating the Grand Master of the State aud making him a member of that Lodge. A condial welcome awaits the Grand Master. We have heard considerable talk from the expectant comers to the Grand Lodee and all seem to want to witness some of the modern degree work by the brethren here during the session. Will the lodges here do the work or let. them leave disappointed; The Grand Secretary returned tins week from a successful trip on the line of the Carolina Central Railway. While on this trip he instituted Harmony lA)dge, No. 199 at Shelby with 22 char ter members, installing the following officers: C. M. Webb, N. G. W. H. Jennings, V. G. K. Kendall, Rec. and Fin. Secy. J. D. Limberger, Treasurer. What is to be done, when the Grand Lodge meets, about that home for the indigent Ouu Fellows and widows of Odd Fellows that was so inucn taik I about in Charlotte at the session of 18U7. If talk and sentiment would build aud furnish homes we could have as many as we need and some to spare; but it takes something more than these. If wishes were horses beggars could ride." The Grand Secretary reports that lie has never witnessed a greater interest or seen a more enthusiastic gathering of the Order than greeted him at Shelby on March the 4th. There were members present from Charlotte, Gastonia, King's Mountain. Boiling Springs and other places to the number of fifty or sixty. When the lodge was being prepared for the work it looked as though the Orand lsidge ol tne State had met. All were m hearty sym pathy and accord and stood in readiness to render any aid that might be needed. The brethren from Gastonia to the uuinlier of twenty three, had charge of the degree work, andwith such a leader as Bro. W. M. Jones, our uistnct dep uty, we expected good and efficient work, but were not prepared to see everything run so smoothly and harmoniously. Suc cess from the start was assured, and to say 'hat the entire crowd, both the old a-:d i he. new members were delighted, is not iMijr-.'erating at alf? If indeed it gives a fair expression. The work done at Shelliv .will be felt perceptibly for the good of the Order for many years to come, 1 , , t . 4.
