“THEODORE THOMAS'S SUMMER CONCERTS.
These concerts continue to increase in popularity, attracting crowded audiences, composed of our best citizens, who visit Terrace Garden night after night to enjoy the cool air and the really beautiful and varied music which Mr. Thomas’s fine orchestra furnishes in such liberal quantities. It is the only resort where one can keep cool and at the same time enjoy the harmless luxury of delicious music. These concerts take place every evening."
