Professor William Pitcher presided
over the large pipe organ at 1:30 and ct
$3.50 o'clock p. m. with q well selected
programme. That his music is highly
appreciated is demonstrated by the fact
that nearly every one rushes TO the
music hall when the big organ is heard.
Stuart, the great male soprano in his
female impersonations, still continues to
be DRAWN card and fools the audience
as to his sex. He is pronounced by all
as without peer in his line.
To morrow night will take place the
grand choral chorus of 800 mixed voices
and will be the most magnificent and
finished chorus ever heard in Texas.
o-morrow will also be "Kentucky
day. and the committee in charge have
mads great preparations for generally
good time and are prepared to entertain
all visitors that may come. Their head
quarters will be found on the grounds.
This was also editor Day, - but
the editors were scarce. There being no
press club in Dallas no one took the re-
sponsibility to entertain the visitors or
try to make the day one of special in-
terest.
