The auditorium was not by any mean a nearly filled a the band deserved, but th sincere applause from several hundred music lovers of discernment helped to make up the lack of numbers. Those who heard the band will have one more reason to be grateful to Judge Taft. on whose Invitation the eighty-six trained musicians crossed 11,000 mile of tea and land to attend the inaugural ceremonies. Captain Walter H. Loving has brought hla Filipino musicians up to uoh a high point of skill and responsiveness that they con render the most difficult masterpieces with excellent expression. This was demon strated In the varied program of sixteen or eighteen numbers, Including encore, which wa given last night. One naturally would look for on abundance of mualo of the Spanish type among the number, but this did not predominate. The program turned easily from Wagner to Beethoven and Rubenateln and Catoisl.

The printed program closed with a descriptive pastoral and hunt ing scene which was played with faithful expression through a balf a dozen graphic scenes. Captain Loving wa kinder to the audi ence than he wa to hi men, for he re sponded to every encore graciously. Every number on the program wa encored and some twloe.
