The Columbian March.

Professor John K. Paine has completed the Columbian March which he was invited to compose for the dedication ceremonies of the World's Fair. It will be the first number on the program and will be played by a full orchestra. It is announced that Professor Paine has provided the following original words for the choral ending of his composition:

All hail and welcome, nations of the earth!

Columbia's greeting comes from every State

Proclaim to all mankind the world's new birth

Of freedom, age on age shall consecrate.

Let war and enmity forever cease,

Let glorious art and commerce banish wrong,

The universal brotherhood of peace

Shall be Columbia's high, inspiring song.
