Sho pleased tho pooplo so well that the Olee Club and tho Lotus Olee Club of Now York both asked her to take twenty minutes In their erenlnc programs. She always received encores for all of her work, and on Dryan day the crowd called for her to speak wn0 they were waiting for Mr. Bryan to como. She Is the only lady reader that wo have ever had thcro that has pleased tho people. As to her work In physical culture, she started In with about thirty or forty tho first morning. The crowds grow larger each day, until at her last lecturo she had between five and six hundred, and they camo to me and asked on Saturday that I have her speak at 5 o'clock In the evening'.

Tho Chicago Olee Club as a male quartet remains unsurpassed. For fifteen consecutive seasons It has been constantly before tho public. Tbo Club has filled over 3.600 concert engagements In tho United States and Cnnada, and has a ropertolro probably more cxtcnslvo and varied than that of any similar organization. Tho Trombone Quartet, first Intro ducts: to tho Lycoum by tho Cblcugo Glee Club ami used only by them, Is ono of the most artistic and pleasing novelties ever presented. Mr. Dixon's character Impersonations are great: his "Hoosler" Is an original sketch illustrated with poems from Janiei Whltcomb Riley. "Tho largest audience yet assembled at tho Chau tauqua greeted tho Chicago Gleo Club last evening. All tho praiseworthy press articles printed lu favor of tho Glees were mndo to 'como to pass' last night. Tho club has learned tho art of a well-balanced program and by keeping in closo harmony with their audience they can accurately gaugo tho tem perament and keep within tho eterunl fitness, Kvt"-v number on tho program was given with un erring artistic sense and (lno technical-ability."
