It is the best and most expensive talent that has ever appeared here in a series of entertainments. The course includes four numbers of the Redpath Lyceum Bureau which is perhaps the leading bureau of its kind in America, and is a guarantee that each will be of the very highest class. The same numbers are being given in a Lyceum course in Salt Lake this season which is a further recommendation of the course to this CHANCELLOR GEORGE H. BRADFORD. BRAD-FORD.
