The bass horn took the ‘Oh’ with gusto and gave the tune a New York twist. Tippy Hines, who tweedles the flute, got sick dur- ing the concert but kept on playing with few wrong notes. A dog bit the bass drummer in the final tune and atopped the concert for a while, There was much excitement but could learn nothing.—Jeff.” ——— GREAT BRITAIN , To CLOSE uP LiQuor.
