Chautauqua a Success
The Redpath Chautauqua began its five-day engagement here last Monday and will close Friday night. The organization this year is furnishing excellent entertainments, the play last night, “Cappy Ricks,” being considered the best play which has been presented here. The tent was packed last night, and the attendance all during the week has been good.
This year for the first time since the Chatauqua has been coming, there will be considerable surplus for the guarantors which, according to previous arrangements, goes to the Red Cross, who, it is expected, will receive from $150 to $200.
Tonight the feature will be a lecture by Elwood Tewksbury Bailey, and tomorrow night the Montague Light Opera Singers will give a concert, “Gretchen of Holland.”
