As promised in last week's issue,
we ar< this week publishing a list
,t the numbers to bo produced in
Nyssa 4he coming winter.
The course will likely start with
T'he I AUers Trio, consisting of
Miss Charlotte Bergh, known as
the (Jirl Soprano of the Northwest;
Heir Nelson, the cellist., and Miss
Jessie June Elliott, reader and
entertainer.
Another promising number is
Alvah Green, the humorist, with
•‘a E rro l of fun.” He will depict
to ua many of the humorous and
even! pathetic scenes enacted in
the St ring town Literary.
No better entertainers ever
mount a platform than the car-
.ooniets. No better lecturer and
interpeter along with his drawing,
is on the platform today than
Spafford. Mrs. Spafford accom-
panics him as an artist in clay
modeling, and is known as the Or­
iginal Lyceumite Girl. She is a
whole show herself. No lyeemn
course is complete without a good
wholesome lecture, but for fear
Nysso people would not accept an
ordinary lecture as an entertain­
ment. the very best and highest
1 man on the course has
__m secured, Earnest J . Silas,
subject The Lost Chord.
The other numbers need no
apology. Cartel’s Original Vir­
ginia Warblers, six negro special­
ists, ¡each one a soloist, singing
the real negro melodies, plantation
and campmeeting songs of years
ago as only the southern negro
caD. This number costs $125 at a
jS K a l rate.
The list of attractions is not
published in the order in which
they; will be given, in fact, the
schedule will not be made out till
September. The iourse will be
spread out over from four to six
months, and the bureau reserves
the right to name the dates.
Nyssa and the surrounding
country will be treated to one of
the best shows of the season, for
fopr days, commencing on Wed­
nesday, July 2(>, when the great
Prof. Frank Miller Carnival
company puts on its stupendous
aggregation of entertainers and
free show exihitions in this city.
The balloon ascension is in it
self worth traveling miles to see,
while the slide for life and trap­
eze performances, both of which
will be free for all, are well
worth spending the time to
come and see, even if yon live
miles away.
This great carnival company,
which, by the way is an Oregon
institution, coining direct from
Portland, puts on twelve big
hows, and carries with it a
$12,000 swing, wh'ci, will be in
operation during their stay in
Nyssa, much to the delight of
both young and old.
The people of Nyssa and their
neighbors in the surrounding
country will bold high carnival
tiere every night during the four
days stay of this great carnival
company, and you are invited to
come, to come every evening
and stay till the fun quits.
If
you are old, come and be young
again; if you are young make
the most of it while the big car­
nival is here and the big crowd
is in attendance.
