MORE LECTURES.

We are glad to learn that the splen-
did discourse which Professor SWING
gave us last week at Simmons Hall on
sThe Novel," was only one Of a series
of fjrst-class addresses with which our
Ken0sha lecture-goers are to De Ia
vored. The distinguished Professor
himself is coming again, and Will give
nis celebrated lecture on "Mlchael An.
cello and Art in the Fifteenth Century.
This announcement will be especially
welcome to those whom the very Dad
weather prevented from hearing HIM
last week. And we shall hope on the
occasion of his second lecture, if it does
not rain pitchforks, to show the elo-
ouent divine that Kenosha is not be-
hind other towns in her ability to FUR
nish an intelligent and apprecla6lVe
lecture audience. The other eminent
gentlemen who are promised, with their
topics, are as follows:
Rev. William Alvin Bartlett, SuDJecC'
'sBoys." Rev. w. H. Ryder, ID, ~.
'sAre we tending to BarbarismY Prof'
w. d. Cunning, FLOWERS and the
Friends of Flowers.
All of these are names OF "A. NO Olo
ability. and stand in the very front rank
of popular lecturers. Mr.. Bartlett has
the happy faculty of mingling a great
deal Of fun with great deal OF praetl-
cal instruction. His theme OF "BOys
affords him a fine field for the display
of his peculiar gifts. DR.. Ryder is pas
tor of st. Pauls Universalis6 Church,
of Chicago, and justly ranks among the
ablest thinkers and most eloquent
speakers in the Northwest. Prof. Cum
ming. of Boston, has lately been with us
and his skill with the blackboard, his
wonderous and fascinating array OF
oientific facts and theories together With
his brilliant powers Of Elocutlon, are.too
well remembered by our citizens TO re-
ouire mention. Of Professor Swings
second lecture, it is enough to say that
his theme. cart in the Fifteenth Cen
t1lrv.'' is one of the richest he could
possibly offer us, and that his treat
ment of it is replete with his we'll
known genial philosophy and humor:
We heartily commend each and all OF
these lectures. We hope every one OF
them will be greeted by a crowded
house. Such lectures are among tie
most reliable and wholesome influences
for which any community can pay us
money. The terms at which these
lectures are offered are very reasoINaDle'
