Mr. DUNNING donates the use of the hall and the musicians tender their services, so that the total receipts will go into the reading room treasury. The admission fee is merely nominal, and includes everything. The Congregational entertainment for next Saturday evening at Dunning's Hall promises to be an unusually fine one. The principal singers are Miss BIDWELL, of Kansas City, and Mrs. DOWNS, of Atchison, already favorites with Wyandott music lovers. The appearance of Miss BIDWELL in our mist should of itself attract a large audience, as she is an acknowledged star in our neighboring city. Several tableaux illuminated with brilliant chemical lights, will be an attractive feature, and beautiful statuary and an amusing comedietta will make up a most unique and promising programme. ================================================= (I have no connection with any of these people but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) =================================================
