the Opening last Ycah

The second annual meeting Of the
Black Hills Chautauaua opened
Tuesday evening, as per program. A
much larger c,ncourse Of people we've
present than assemble last year at
the opening. The first on the program
was the opening concert by the Bower
band. This exercise was exceeding
pleasant as are all the programs of the
Bower band.
The audience all united in singing
the doxology, after which prayer
was made by President Hancher.
Prof. John McMullen accom-
panied by the Bower band entertained
the audience with instrumental nu.
sic. Prof. M.Mullen clearly showed
that he is q cornetist of no ordinary
skill.
President next reviewed the pro-
gram for Wednesday, and then in
troduced DR.. Freeman who entertained
and instructed the assembly with a
lecture upon the subject, ACROSS the
Atlantic and along the Thames" DIR.
Freeman has lost none Of his facina-
ton as a public speaker during the
year, and it goes without saying that
the lecture was an exceedingly graft
flying me-.
After a concert solo by Prof, Nc
Mullen the audience separated.
