CHAUTAUQUA
TO-NIGHTI TO-NIGHT! The big brown marquee that heralds the approach of the Chautauqua is pitched on Cass Square. Glowing reports of the success and popularity of the cliautauqua movement are constantly being relceived. Christchurch papers speak in glowing terms of the splendid musical treats provided at each sitting by the Lyric quartette, an SAuckland combination consisting of Messrs’ A. H. Ripley (first tenor) H. Richards (second tenor), Alan McElwain (baritone and entertainer), and J. W. Ryan (bass), with Mrs Ripley as accompanist. Chautauqua was opened this afternoon and will be continued this evening and every afternoon and even, ing for six nights. To-night the formal welcome will be given and then the concert by the Lyric quartette will be followed by Judge Alden, who speaks upon the present day problems pertaining to the advancement of the world. His language is strong and simple, pile-driving in its vigorous intensity and searching in its analysis. His subject will be “The Needs of the
Hour.” Afternoon concerts commence at 2.40 p.tn. and evening concerts at S o.m.
