I ttunr y -." TICKET SALE GOOD; CHAUTAUQUA WORK Up to This Time Sixteen Hundred and Forty Tickets Disposed Of. PLAT OPENS ON JULY 31. TWO NEW NUMBERS HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THE PROGRAM, A MALE QUARTET AND A LADY READER. That the Richmond Chautauqua will be well patronized during its coming sessions, is evidenced by the already large sale of tickets. Uptodate there has been 1,640 tickets sold, while the demand continues unabated. The de mand for lots In the White City is also heavy and when the plat opens July 31, they will be sold with a rush. More people of Richmond and vicinity are contemplating camping at the Chautauqua this year than ever before, according to committee members, and although it was at first thought the demand for tents would not over-reach the supply, it is highly probable that! this will be the case. Since the Chautauqua program was published some time ago, two new attractions have been added, one of them the Majestic quartet of Springfield, O., which is considered one of the best Chautauqua quartets in the business. The men not only sing standard quartet selections, but also sing many that appeal to the funny side of many and for this reason are considered a valuable acquisition to the program. Miss O'Brien, a reader, has also been selected to give readings during the latter days of the Chautauqua sessions. She is considered one of the best readers in the country. The program committee Is well pleased with both the additions to the already large program. Men backing a Chautauqua at Urbana, O., have written to the local committee on tents and grounds asking to rent the local Chautauqua seats. Owing to the fact that the Urbana sesaions will be held at the same time, the Rich mond event is held, it will be Impossible for the local committee to rent the settees to the Urbana people.
