Than Heretofore.
With last nights performance, the
first seven days of the Chautauqua were
at an end. This is in all respects the
worst part of the session for the authori
ties, for much depends on successful
opening Of the meeting. The manage
ment has had an unusual number OF
difficulties to overcome this past week
First Sam Jones broke his dates, and two
| hasty programs were made necessary.
Then came the Roney Boys telegram
telling OF their accident and inability to
show here last night. These gaps have,
however. been filled up very acceptably,
and the audiences of the week have
been very apprecia,ive. Tn: crowds in
the auditorium are much larger than a,
similar time last year. and there can
be no doubt but that the number OF visit
ing Chautauquans is far greater than in
previous years. Very many, however.

more home like life to be obtained in
private houses 10 the tent or cottage
existence and as a result the down town
contingent is larger than that on the hill.

audible in the rear OF the auditorium
On her encore, with the commission Of
the violin cSllgato there was decided
improvement.
Louis Rischar's violin solo was rare
,reA and his refusal 10 respond to an
encore cau-ed no little disappointment.
Miss Sharp sang her way into the hearts
OF her audience and on her recall gave
