LAST CONCERT :-HENRY STAGG-: OF SEASON FAMOUS CHARACTER NO. 9 On Saturday evening the Midvale City Band tmder the direction of Don(. ald Jessop will play the twelfth and last concert of the season. ..-') The band will be assisted in this -~/ final program by the famous Apollo ' Quartet of Midvale. This has doubtless been the most successful season the band has ever had. Every concert has been well patronized, the boys have rallied around Mr. Jessop and worked diligently. Had it not been for two little rainstorms the whole summers program would have gone like clock work.. On June 13th the City Council appointed Mr. Jessop director of the Midvale Band. It was in a disorganized condition and presented many difficulties and some opvosition but Mr. Jessop has ably reconstructed the band by developing some of the young boys and has maintained an organization of high standing among the amateur bands of the state. Midvale is one of the very few cities in Utah ,(the only one in Salt Lake County save Salt Lake City) that has maintained a municipal band and we hope plans will be made immediately for the coming year so that this fine organization may remain a permanent institution in the year's program.

I (Continued from Last Week) I remember taking the Captain and his Steward and the Quartermaster on a hunting trip for big game and I landed them at a little town in the Arabian Coast, about 4 hours run from Aden. Well, they left me with plenty of good grub and plenty of liquor and amongst other fruit was a big watermelon and the Captain told me to get out there and drop anchor and wait until they came back and if you get drunk I'll never bring you out any more. Well, I didn't get drunk, but I ate that watermelon and I have wished I had got drunk instead, because I never liked watermelons since Well, here I was all day and all night and the next day all by my lone some, but no one bothered me. I felt a little skiddish just the same and just before sundown their native guide brought them in a boat to the Launch With a Lions skin and a Jackhalls and they seemed to have enjoyed their trip. The Captain announced supper while your boiler is steaming up. I see you didn't go very heavy on the liquor. No, sir, 11ays I, but I did on the watermelon. Well, you shall have one now that will kill the watermelon cramps. We got back to the ship alright and that trip taught me the lesson, that there are some men that can wear the Uniform without being tyrants, and know how to be sociable in their hunting suit. Well, after that hunting trip I liked the Navy better than ever. I knew we had a good Captain and two good Engineers that knew how to treat men and there was no_ more firemen sunstroke after that. Now here was Christmas Eve, 1879 and in comes a big steamer, loaded with Pilgrims bound for Mecca, flying the Union Jack upside down. Well, everybody knew that meant mutiny on board, and our Captain sent an officer with a boats crew manned and armed and they arrested 17 of the ringleaders and took them ashore to the military jail. That ended the mutiny- then the Captain of the steamer signaled they had a broken crank shaft and needed two mechanics to help their engineers repair it. Our Captain asked for two volunteers and I was the first to volunteer and my chum the next. We tossed a coin to see who should go first. My chum went first, and I relieved him at 12 p. m. Christmas eve and worked until 4:30 in the morning and I want to tell you we worked until the crankshaft was repaired . Then they took me back to the Seagull, and after a few hours sleep I was ready for a Merry Christmas which we all had aboard of our little ship. Besides roast beef and plum duff, we spliced the main brace. Old Sailors know what that means and the ship steamed out with the Pilgrims and landed them at Massowa and steamed from there to Bombay without any mishap and remained there until they got a new crankshaft sent out from England. The Captain sent my chum and I a handsome present for our services, besides giving us a big boost to our Captain.
