' G rant's Pass. A course of first-class entertainments and lectnres is recognized as a necessity in every town and city that has had the privileges of such a course for one or two reasons. Believing that Corvallis is in no wisn behind any college town in ita appreciation "of good things and confident of hearty snoport, the Men's Club of the Congregational church recently closed a co-itract with an Eastern Lyceum Bureau for five of the very best public entertain ments that will be available on the Coast and these will be Riven in -the Opera House in this city daring the coming' fall and w'inter. The canvass for season tickets, to meet the heavy guarantee made DeceBsary b-f thia contract, has not been completed, but the response from those so far canvassed has been so hearty and generous that it is now thought pos sible to add a sixth entertainment to the course. If this is done, it will be witb out additional cost to the holders of sea son tickets. The following is an an. nouncement of the several entertain ments, with dates so tar as arranged : Oct. 10 The first entertainment of the course is by the Parland-Newhall com pany's male quartette and bell fingers. Th8 quartet is composed of voices that have been before the American public for years and whose blending is as nearly perfect as careful training ean make it. Tha bell-ringing feature consist! of a peal of more than 100 hand bells, the finest in America, made by the " John Taylor company, : Longlboraugh, Eng land, and varying in weight from three ounces to fifteen pounds. This company is an attraction which can present the most novelty, versatility and art in its program. A . variety of features, both entertaining and instructive and calcul ated to appeal to all tastes. Nov. 4 The second entertainment of the course will be given by Maro, the prince of magic. Here is a man at the forefront of his profession- -r-Re-engaged before he left the hall at Washington D. C. Maro, the magician ; Maro, the musician ; Maro, the artist and yet but one Maro. He will take a whole barn yard of ducks, chickens, pigeons and a warren of rabbits outof your hat or from your coat pocket. With his hands he will make your photograph upon the wall and w'll charge you nothing for it. Maro's mrsterious fun held and fooled them all." Maro brings with him a quartet of saxophone artists and plays mniseit tne largest saxopnone reea in strument ever made. The third number of the course will be a lecture by Lee Francis Lybarger. Mr- Lybarger is a lawyer of the Phila delphia bar. It has been Mr. Lybarger's ambition from his youth to carry the truths of science to the homes and the hearts of the common people. He right- holdd that the greatest truths are the simplest truths and that all can under stand them if rightly presented- His great lecture on "How to be Happy'' is not only highly entertaining but is re vo'utionary on human lives. Mr. Ly barger is a brilliant speaker and one of the best thinkers on economic and social questions in this country. The fourth number of the course will be given by Mr. Elias Day assisted by Mrs. Oranni Truitt Day, his wife. Mr. Day has been known for the past eight ypars as one of the three great platform entertainers and in his line is acknow ledged to be without an equal. Absolute- original and unique. He combines with his' talent a genius for work and study. Mr. Day uses wigs, paints and other accessories for the presentation of his characters and has raised their use from the domain of novelty to the realm of art.' He is a star of the Chautauqua platform and his characterizations are worthy the stady of every student for they are taken from life. The Harry T. Bntterworth company are the fourth in the couise. Mr. But ter worth is a basso singer with a voice unexcelled for clearness. He was the star of the Thomas Day orchestra com pany." His singing and pleasant . per sonality captivates the audience.. He brings with him Miss Hat tie Kosa Urace the eoprano and whistling artist. : Also Mias Kosentower, the violinist. Those who hear her will better understand why the yioliu is called the ''King ot Instru ments." And also Miss Marion Wallace, the reader, who compared favorably with the best of national reputation. The four make up a program hard to excel and are encored to the small hours of the night. - . - The sixth entertainment to be ad-Jed without cost to those who hold season tickets will be a lecture on the great paintings of the world, and will be illustrated by steieopticon yiews, com prising several hundred paintings held in the great art galleries of Europe and America.
