SIX GIRLS WHO SING MID PLAY The Dunbar Singing Orchestra It Big Feature of Chau tauqua Week. PUYING POPULAR MUSIC. They Filled More Than Sixty Chau tauque Engagements in the Larger Cities of Four States—Also a Ly ceum Attraction. There are six girls in the Dunbar Singing Orchestra, one of the five musical companies that appears here Chautauqua Week. This Orchestra was organized three or four years ago by Mr. Ralph Dun bar. who is at the head of the de partment of organization in the Red path Lyceum Bureau. The idea in the organization of this rompany was the presenting of a class of popular music that could be appreciated by everyone, and, at the same time, was so perfect from a thoroughly artistic standpoint that there would be no unfavorable criti cisms from those of strong musical tastes and keen musical appreciation and understanding. The company succeeded from the first and it is little wonder. There w as a careful selection of the j best musicians, capable of becoming a strong part of a singing organiza tion as well as orchestra. The com bination of the two—the trained voices and the instruments—gave variety and the character of the work brought applause. Last summer the Dunbar Singing Orchestra appeared in more than sixty large Chautauquas of I ova, Minnesota, Missouri and Wisconsin and las* winter, they filled almost a hundred engagements on the Lyceum platform. They are known in many places they will visit this summer. It is one of the strongest and one of the extremely popular of the newer musical organizations. A Company That’s “Standard.” The Litchfield Trio, which is to be here Chautauqua Week, is one of the oldest Lyceum and Chautauqua at tractions that is known today. They wrote a little sketch, which they present week-days, Down at Brook Farm. It made them famous. They have been presenting that for ten years. In America, in England, and on the continent of Europe. It is a pretty and laughable thing , that won applause from the first, the beauty of It being, of course, its pe culiar and charming adaptation to those who filled the parts. They fit i ted In so well. It was written by j them for them. Every seven days, the Litchfields present a Sunday program as beauti ful and as appropriate as the week day program is entertaining. Their music on Sunday is sacred music. It is one of the most popular Lyceum and Chautauqua attractions, or they could not hare been successful nil these jeers.

July. 18,—By the end of this month tiie Dakota, Kansas & Gulf railroad expects to have secured pledges from the precincts along its proposed line between Kearney and Beloit of $150,000, the sum of $108,000 having been voted already. The bond issues have been voted with the un derstanding that the bonds are not to .je delivered until the road is com plete. Construction is planned to commence October 1. Mr. Jenkins, representing the Lon don syndicate that is dealing with ihe road, has rented a home at Kear ney and will move there for a period of three years, according to an an nouncement made by C. Hildreth, chairman of the executive committee. From Beloit- Kans., comes the sug gepi.,n that the SP-nte Fe railroad is, behind this move and that Its plan is to extend a line through Nebraska tnat its nortli aud soutli business may be added to. There has been much gossip concerning the promo tion of this road, some prefering to believe that the Union Paeitic is be hind the scheme and that it desires a connecting line between its Nebras ka and Kansas lines farther west in this state. A Kearney man discussing this proposition says: . “It will be notod that connection is planned at Carring ton witli the Canadian Pacific, and that English capital, which owns the Canadian Pacific, is behind this pro ject. Preliminary maps of the proposed road show the line running from Car rongton N. D . where a connection i> made with the Canadian Pacific U Hutchison Kas., where a connection is made with the Santa Fe and its dne through Oklahoma and Texas to Galveston. From Carriugton, N. D.. oo Galveston, over the proposed route is about 1,500 miles. Connection with the Canadian Pacific in the north would put Moose Jaw, Canada w ithin 1,800 miles of Galvesten, about the same distance that western Ne braska is from New York. The traf fic idea is that much wheat from the north country may bo divertid to the gulf coast through the building of 700 miles of railroad between Car rington. N. D., and Hutchison. Kas. Some right of way has been pur chased, it is reported, and some ar rangements have been made for town sites.

This gives our business interests time to receive their noon mail and answer the same day. Good change.
