A pleasant and interesting time is anticipated. Let all who can, witness the tournament here. In the evening a rare treat will be offered, as the young ladies of Bolivar will give a grand vocal and instrumental concert. Their programme, as arranged, embraces\u00a0many of the most beautiful creations of the great composers, all of which, we can safely say, will be executed in a style as perfect as they are brilliant. Persons visiting the tournament and who have to travel by rail, will be required to pay half fare, that is, a return ticket will be furnished free of cost.
