The Last liaml Concert.The (Charter Oak Baud gave the last open air concert of the season last Saturday night. This completed a series of concerts which have been given once a week since the first of July. The music furnished on these occasions has been good and each band concert night ha* found a large number of peoplegathered on the square to enjoy it.This band was organized something more than a year ago and with few exceptions the members are at the Turney Charter Oak Wagon Works, hence the! name. The band is composed of twenty*# v * Vtwo members with T. H. Jones as director, and everyone of the members ha» done hard and faithful work during the y*ar of their organization. The weekly concerts will be very generally missed, but at this sea.-on o( theyear the weather is most too cool for out-of-door entertainment of thb sort. It is to be hoied that the Charter Oak Band will keep up the work it has begun and that nextsummer the old order of concerts will be resumed. It is impossible for a town of this size to give a band the remuneration which it deserves, but the financial affairs of the band have been greatly helped by the money paid them by the merchants during the time they gave concerts.
