and Bis Bands Hossa
A. three days' engagement, afternoon
and evening, at the Auditorium, be
ginning June 26. will prove to the lovers
of band melody in Lincoln that a new
conductor of music is rising in America
and the triumphs of Patrick Gilmore
are Tieing repeated in the success
crowding fast upon Eugen'o Sorrerttino
and his Banda Rossa (red band), the
greatest organization of its kind in all
Europe. At the Genoa exposition, the
Banda Rossa won the gold medal over
sixty-four European bands. It takes
its name from the red coats and red
caps which the musicians wear.
Sorrentino has been called the
"March King of Italy," and the title
lits him, for his "Willow Grove" and
other marches are among the best the
world has ever known. They have in
dividuality and a rythm peculiarly
their own. But it is as an arranger of
operatic music that Sorrentino is
greatest, and his works in this class
are standard in two hemispheres. He
is a personal friend of Mascagni, Leon
cavallo, Puccini and other celebrated
composers of the modern Italian
school.
His band is unlike any other that
America has ever heard. It is differ
ent in its instrumentation, but what
is more important, everything that it
plays has as its dominant the sing
ing phrase. "Untamed steeds of
melody," these forty-five red-coated
players have been called. Their inter
pretations, particularly of operatic se
lections, are declared by critics to be
revelations of unexpected possibilities
in band music. Abandon, fervor and a
wonderful ensemble attach to their
every number. The solo instruments
seem like real voices.
No one can doubt the supreme ex
cellence of the Banda Rysa. Its com-
nvpnt nnrl
something to Ireasure in ineir.oryr"No
other band has so distinguished a corps
of soloists. 1
The Banda Rossa was founded twen
ty years ago by the citizens of San
Severo, a small city in south central
Italy. In 1889. Sorrentino, who had
Just been graduated with highest hon
ors from the Conservatory of Naples,
was called to the conductorshlp. Sor
rentino's genius soon made itself felt,
and'ln 1892 the Society for the promo
tion of Music, which had founded the
band, decided that it should enter the
contest at the Genoa exposition. 'The
city had its reward when Sorrentino
and the Banda Rossa won the gold
medal over sixty-four contestants.
When the band returned to San
Severo, the city took a day off to cel
ebrate the victory. The feature of the
jubilee was the presentation of a medal
to Sorrentino by the city officials and
prominent citizens. From Italy thp
band went to Germany, where it was
tremendously successful. While in
Berlin, Sorrentino received a decoration
from the kaiser.
Eugenio Sorrentino was born in Cal
abria, Italy. He has superlative ability
both as a leader and a composer. Most
of the members of his band are grad
uates of Italian conservatories and
many of them have been with him for
more than ten years.

A marriage can be pulled off for $7.
Of this sum $2 must be expended for
a license and $3 for the minister. If it
Is any less the preacher stands' the
difference. But for a divorce $25 must
be expended for the lawyer and the re
maining charges are exacted by law
and must be met. So $40 Is about bed
rock.
Witnesses are expensive Items, unless
they are willing to remit the costs.
Other charges are made when the op
posite side puts up a defense or sends
a lawyer to ward off alimony. Then
they roll up the expense on contin
uances and other mysterious counter
checks, well known to minions of the
law.

A number of suits are settled by
