The Dansonians Band, which had its beginning under the title of the "Mystery" Band at the Palais in the Free Library Hall some few weeks ago, has shown a steady improvement in its offerings, brought about by constant practice together and pat ions of the palais are most lavish in their praise of the music being played by the band. The Danson ians have now given their attention to "old time" dance numbers, and a few of these were featured with suc cess at last Saturday's palals. On Saturday next it is intended (in proportion to the Wish of the pat rons) to again feature old time music. The band has made ar rangements to secure at the earliest possible moment, all the latest dance numbers as they are released, and it is pleasing to hear the very latest fox trots, etc., being played by them at the palais each week. A luatch between Primo Carners and Max Baer to decide the world heavyweight championship title is more imminent now than ever before, and nmay be arranged as early as June next.
