play and delightful comedy, mid

Manning College Players, consist
ing of 45 charming young ladies,
are all artists actresses, elocu-
tionists, singers and dancers. The
Chautauqua managers, not satis-
fed with giving one of the pref
tiest plays ever produced as an at
traction for the grand opening of
the expensive Auditorium, insisted
upon several specialties being
given by the leading ladies of the
cast. The ladies gladly consented
replying that they would do
their best to make the entertain
ment more than worth the price Of
admission. The Auditorium COM

Indian Band. =

be alone worth the price of admis-
sion.

granted very low round trip rates.
