HAPPY BINDINGS ARE
WHAT CROWDS WANT
So Mrs. Waltz Does not Read
all of the Jean Val
Jean Tragedy.

The reading OF Les MiserSbAes' By
Mrs. Waltz was enjoyed by quite q
large audience yesterday afternoon
Mrs. Waltz did not read the entire
story. but just that part up to the con-
fession of Jean Val Jean that he was
the convict who was wanted by the
officers. She has been reading this
story for eleven years before the var.
ious ChautauQuas and she said yester.
day that her friends and associates on
the platform had advised her to stop
in the story at that part where there
was happy climax. since there was
so much of an element of tragedy
throughout the story.
Miss Sybil Pagan, a young lady ap-
parently not far advanced in her
teens, delighted the audience by an
unusual whistling program after the
appearance of Mrs. Waltz This young
whistler halls from Springfield. o..
and is the niece of Mrs. Gertrude Hon.
man, who lives on North West Third
street, of this city. The manner in
which Miss Pagan whistles. by placing
her little fingers between her lips and
apparently without effort the whistling
begins. Her tones are clear and of a
pleasing quality and the range is I'M
usually large. She whistles for the
most part songs. which are accompan-
led by the piano. AS an encore she
gave an excellent imitation of bird
calls. The patrons of the Chautauqua
are glad to know that she is to appear
again today

style. To these entertainments the
audience listened attentively. but
when the Runge orchestra. a body OF
local musicians who have been giving
