List Of the Attractions Offered
for This Winter.

The Pipe Organ Association has
completed full arrangements for an
other course of ten entertainments Of
similar nature to those they have
given for the last three years. The
phenomenal success of this enterprise
in the past assures a bigger sale this
year than ever. The entertainments
in the past have given such universal
satisfaction that a person who takes
tickets for one season is almost sure
to take more the next. In this way
the sale has been increased about so
per cent each year.
The first entertainment comes Fri
day, October 9, and is a concert by the
OF Florence Hinkle, soprano, Adah
Campbell Hussey, contralto, Reed
Miller, tenor, and Frederick Wheeler,
basso.
This is the very best quartet that
will be on the road this year.
Saturday, Oct. "a, the Common
wealth orchestra, composed of eight
beautiful and talented young ladies.
This is the most famous female or
chestra in she world.
Friday. Nov. 10. Congressman
Adam Bede. of Wisconsin. next to
Bryan and La Toilette the most pop
ular lecturer in America.
Friday, Nov. 81, lecture by Henry
Helm Clayton, on Aerial Navigation.
He is connected with the Blue Hill
observatory, near Boston, and is a
scientist of more than national fame.
He piloted the winning German bal
loon at the famous race from st. Louis
last year. This will be very unique,
and we believe highly instructive and
entertaining.
Friday, Dec. II, the famous Scotch
singers, a ladies' quartet, under the
direction of Miss Tina Crawford, the
greatest living Scotch contralto, who
will render the old Scotch melodies.
and this will probably be one of the
most popular numbers.
Friday. Jan. 1, the famous Indian
magician, and Youna, the japanese
juggler, and his Japanese entertain
ment, the great hit of last season in
the entertainment line.
wedn eSday, February 10. This date
has been secured for a lecture by
Russell H. Conwell. He was lectur-
ing in the days of Phillips, Cough,
and Ghapi1: and recently hyt t Les Tea
American lecturers on the American
platform today. Russell Conwel is
one of the ten, and probably the most
eminent
Friday, February -, comes Ralph
Bingham, one of the most humorous
and entertaining personators on the
lecture platform. The humorist Stays
follies and absurdities which all the
sermons of all the pulpits cannot
reach. This is our apology for pre-
senting Bingham. He is a fun-maker
with song, music, and story.
Friday, February 81, the Wash
burn College Glee club will give a
concert. Under the able training of
Prof. Look the late dean Of the must
cal department of Washburn, this
club has developed into the strongest
and best glee club in the west, and
we are proud to have them on our
list. Prof. Look was by far the best
driller of chorus work of this kind
that we have had in this part of the
west. Since this course was ar
ranged, Prof. Look met an untimely
death by typhoid fever. Some
competent person will be secured for
the position he held.
Friday, March 5, the last number
on the course will be a concert by the
Redpath grand quartette. male
quartette. 1t is composed of MI.
Cecil James and DR.. Ion Jackson, ten
ors, DIR. Carl Duff and Mr.. Frederick
Martin, bassos. These are all eminent
soloists, we'll known to the musical
world for their excellent work as
soloists at musical festivals. This is
the first attempt to combine four such
great soloists in male quartette to
be heard in one concert. 1t makes a
very expensive omblnarion, but we
