President Harper Of the University Of
Chicago.
Chautauqua branches in various parts
Of the country viii also hold summer
meetings. These are not rivals Of the
parent school, but carefully fostered chill
dren. and they receive instruction and
encouragement in unstinted measure.
Many Of them are delightfully."- located
One is at Salt Springs, near Atlanta,
where 2 picturesque tabernacle rises in
the midst of a beautiful park. Another
is at Point o. Woods on Long Island,
where surf bathing furnishes refreshing
recreation and the roar of old ocean
soothes tired brains.
Another one of the junior Chautau-
quas that has grown much in popular
favor in the last few years is located at
Bay View, Mich. Last year the attend
ance reached over 500, being made up
of students from all parts Of the union.
This is American year at Bay View, and
American studies in wide range viii
be conducted by professors Of recognized
ability and talent. A joint debate viii
be held between Michigan and Chicago
universities and a series of Bible studies
will be conducted after the Mortified
method by DR.. J. Wilbur Chapman of
Philadelphia.
The Catholic summer school. which
has secured a most charming site on
Bluff Point, near Plattsburg, N. Y,
will attract thousands of students. This
institute has been growing in popularity
from year to year, and the coming session
promises to be even more successful than
that Of last summer. The institute
grounds overlook Lake Champlain, and
some of the lectures are given in a 70
mantle old colonial mansion which
stands on the very edge OF the bluT.
This years session will open July 70
and close Aug 16. but special courses
viii be in progress from July . to Sept
L. Practically the same lines will be
followed as in 1895.
The coming session viii be the first
on the assembly grounds Of the school
Buildings are now being erected to sup
ply immediate wants. An electric rail
way from Plattsburg to the school
grounds viii be in operation. Fifty
thousand dollars viii be expended IN

preparing the assembly grounds for the
session Of 1895.
The Colambia Catholic Summer
school, established last year in Madison.
Wis, announces its second session July
is to Aug. 4, 1896. In the list Of lee
lures are many eminent Catholic names.
Bishop Spalding of Peoria, the Right
Rev. J. J. Keane, rector of the Catholic
university at Washington; Cardinal
Satolli, Archbishop Ireland and other
prominent prelates Of the church have
been invited to address the school Mad
ison is an especially attractive spot for
the location of such a school, as has
been proved by the success of MOnOna
Lake assem- bly,, which has had a cOntin-
uOus existence there for many years.
The Colorado Summer School Of Phil
OsOphy, Sciences and Languages viii
begin its fifth annual session on July IS
and continue for four weeks. The work
viii be divided into 20 or more depart
ments, each under the charge of an able
lecturer. The study of geology and
botany will be made especially inter
esting in this school because Of the ez-
tensive and varied fora of the surround
ing country ard the opportunities to
study geological formations. Nature,
in other words, viii provide an illus
trated textbook.
The eldest summer school devoted
exclusively to the study of languages
is the Saveur college at Amherst, Mass,
of which the twent y-first session will be
held from July 8 to Aug. IA.
The usual summer schools of methods
for teachers will be conducted this year
at Martha's Vineyard, Mass, and at
Glens Falls, N. Y.
The superintendent Of Indian schools,
DR. W. ID Mailman, has arranged a
series of summer institute meetings for

The New York university offers at
tractive courses which are of interest to
teachers In connection with Queens
university at Kingston, Ont, a summer
school of science will be conducted, be-
ginning July z and contiT iuing for four
weeks
In addition to all these opportunities
for study at home, several American col
leges and universities viii 5this summer
send out scientific expeditions to differ
ent parts of the werld- These expedi-
tons viii be made up Of students and
professors, and lectures viii be given in
the field with strange surroundings
The University Of Pennsylvania viii
send such an expedition into the interior
Of Labrador for the purpose Of studying
the Eskimo and collecting specimens Of
fauna and fora. Amherst college sends
aparty of professors to one Of the islands
Of northern Japan to observe an eclipse
Of the sun. and the Lick observatory also
sends out an expedition for the same
purpose. Truly the American search aft

a regular college course Of several weeks
may be pursued, but in the most Of
them advantages for study in one or two
special branches are offered
At the head Of the list of summer
schools stands Chautauqua, Of course.
Indeed, every Chautauquan insists that
1.-THE Chautauqua idea, a phrase
which they are very fond of using, BIZ
the way, is the principal on which the
whole system is founded and about
which all the summer schools have
grown. This is true in great measure,
for that summer colony on the shores Of
that beautiful lake in the northwestern
part of New Yo rk state has been the
pattern which has been followed in the
organization of all those that have
sprung up since good old Bishop Vim
cents idea was first given a trial over a
score Of years ago.
The life at Chautauqua gives one an
idea of the way the hot months are
passed at the other summer schools
There Minerva and Hygeia 60 hand in
hand, and the students acquire eruditiOn
and sunburn, mental acumen and mus
cular development at one and the same
time. The young men and women who
file seriously into the hall of philosophy
in the forenoon to listen to lectures on
abstruse subjects may be seen in the
afternoon whirling merrily along on bi-
cycles, tripping gayly over the tennis
courts OF pulling Justify in racing shells
on the lake. Some people have an idea
that Biblical research is the chief object
at Chautauqua. This is mistake. The
Chautauquans learn all sorts of things
nowadays, and the religious tendency,
while pleasantly evident, is not an all
absorbing one.
This season the instruction viii cover
a wide range Of subjects; but, in accord
ance with the general plan of Chautau-
qua to lay special emphasis on some one
subject, pedagogy is to receive special
attention, and so an unusually large
number Of schoeIteachers are expected
there this summer. In addition to
courses of instruction in psychology,
under the direction of President ". L.
Hervey Of the New York Teachers col
lege, there will be lectures on variety
of educational themes by weu known
authorities.
These, Of course, are not all. They are
a few noted specialists in the education
line Fer the other branches of study
there viii be q score Of we'll known pro
fessors who viii deliver lectures on a
great variety of topics from dynamic
economies to amateur photography.
Among the distinguished foreign visitors
who VIII be seen at Chautauqua this
year VIII be Professor George Adam
Smith, the noted biblical student Of
Glasgow Professor Joseph a Best Of

Ex-Governor John P st. John is a
too broad minded man to longer remain
tied to a one idea organization like the
Prohibition party, hence he has seized
the first plausible excuse to leave it.
The formation of a new party by him
self and his followers viii probably end
in their uniting with some one of the
existing political organizations wherein
there is at least a chance Of their work
being effective. The time has arrived
when such friends of silver as st. John
is should be thinking of getting to-
gether instead of forming new parties.
There are enough believers in the
white metal in the United States to
control the action of both the leading
parties if they win but unite i'm one or
the other or even in both. With but
two parties in the country and silver
majority in each the people would be
safe and need not worry greatly over
the result of the election. Other differ
ences could be settled later.

Chaplain LOzier was by no means 2
uOncOmbatant, and when there was ne
time for prayers and preaching he some
how found q muEket and blazed away
with as much zeal and as coed aim as
any man in the ranks. He was known
throughout the army Of the Cumberland
as the Fighting Chaplain - This and
his great ability for singing patriotic
songs made hia extremely popular.
At the close of the war Chaplain
LOzier went to Iowa and took part IN
the famous prohibition fight that ended
VIGOROUSLY for the temperance people.
Several attempts to kill him were made
during that campaign by the saloon
men, but he came out of it unscathed.

The Cleveland plea for economy,
which is contained in his message
vetoing the river and harbor bin tends
to place him under a suspicion of in
sincerity. When it is considered that
he has been giving his approval to an
manner of extravagant, useless and un-
called for appropriation, it would have
looked more consistent If he had said
that he refused to sign the bin because
it was wrong to squander the money
of a helpless people in that way The
people will be thankful for the veto,
