 Chautauqua May Return.
 Despite the fact that the tent at he Chautauqua has been nearly filled at every performance. the affair has not been a financial success in Berlin, and it will be necessary for the guarantors to stand the loss. This. however, will not be large a sum was at first expected. As one of the guarantors stated this morning. the people of Der lin did not know what a chautauqua really was. and a large majority were afraid to take a chance. Since the chautauqua has been in town. how ever. there has been nothing but the highest of praise. and some have att tended the shows by purchasing in- d1vidual tickets.
 By this method many more have become acquainted with the chau- tauqua, and it is thought that it would | re a wise proposition to have it re- turn next year. The present list of | feel. however. that if such | Is the case they would like to have a much larger list of guarantors. and | If the chautauqua was not a success next year the loss would not be so great. IT IS felt, however, that II a return engagement is made the affair will not be a loss.
