OF their sunny southern nature than
would otherwise be possible. Mr.. Moore

he has SO long and serious face that
you think the responsibilities must be
heavy. When he announces the selec-
tions he pulls his chin down and his eye
brows up until he looks like a Chinaman
But he seems to take great delight in
announcing his wife, the leading soprano,
whose stage name is Miss Palmer a de
lightful little lady as bright and charm =
ing socially as can be, with the complex
ion Of mulatto. dark sparkling eyes,
and not the least noticeable trace of the
negro twang in her voice. The leading
alto is as dark as Miss Palmer is light,
and has deep rich voice. Mr.. Wash
ingtOn, leading ba,so, is as black as coal
and several inches over six feet. He is
utterly unconscious OF the audie nee,
sending his voice rolling up and down
the platform and see. saving through all
the movements of camp meeting en-

While all Nebraska is searching, there
ia one place where ample shade and cool
river breezes abound and bring rest and
comfort. 1t is the beautiful spot near
Crete, half encircled by the Blue. on
which the Chautauqua grounds are sit
uated. And it is more beautiful and
more delightful than ever this year.
Greater care has been taken with the
grounds than in time past. The lawn is
in better shape, the trees trimmed, the
lower park cleaned aud freshly sodde /.
Indeed this last spot which here to fore
has bsen rather neglected on account OF
its lowness this year is the most de-
sirable ground Of the entire place. Here
the Hall in the Grove, as it is called, has
been repaired; new benches have been
put in, and places cleaned for tents
Other improvements have been made
on the Auditorium, the Dining Hall
the walks, the pontoon bridge and in
many places. The whole ground gives
the camper sense OF rest and GOODNESS
and perfect content the moment he eros
ses the bridge and enters the gate.

ly eating dinner recalls the experience
OF certain minister from one OF the
smaller towns OF the state, who several
years ago brought about twenty boys
down to the assembly. The man was
tired and overworked and needed rest
badly, but he was so generous hearted
that when somebody sue gested his tax
ing the Boys club" Of his church to
idea and carried it through to his
infinite sorrow, as you shall see.
1t took him two weeks TO make pre-,
parations-the tents, the gasoline stove
a cook, food and canned goods and
then several days starting. He worked
like Turk getting away and 10 getting
situated at tbs grounds. Then his
troubles multiplied hundred fold. The
boys were constantly getting into mis-
chief or running risks OF drowning in
the river. They fought like little ter
riers at their meals, seemed never to go
to sleep till midnight and to wake up
with the sun. One of them made away
with the assembly bell, another got into
the food box, ate all the camel green
cages, and had to be worked over all
that night by the minister and his wife
to keep him from dying. There were
constant complaints, and all the neigh
boring campers pulled ont and left that
part of the ground. Then the boys
folks got to coming i'm and spending
from three to four days with the part,
The provisions ran out and the minister
was stuck for several dollars extra on
food. The boys wouldn't work and he
himself had TO carry the water, build
the fires and do all the little chore work.
so that his rest. his class work, ard his
attendance at the lectures was cut short.
Finally. after they bad been there a
week, the party had their picture taken
by a strolling photographer at fifty cents
picture. 1t took two hours of worry
and fretting to get the group together
the minister in the center with the boys
gathered lovingly about him, and the
cook 10 whlts apron on the left. Every
boy said he would take one picture ard
the photographer struck Oft two dozen,
but when he came around the Minister
found that the lads had spent all their
pocket money, and that he had to st and
good for the two dozen at six dollars a
dozen.
That picture broke up the party.
When they were disclosed it was seen
that the cook had sat too far to the left
and only her apron appeared in the pic
ture. That made her angry. She took
it into her head that they Lad done this
GA purpose. and picked up her things
and went home. The minister and his
wife did the cooking then selve. for a
day and half longer, but the wife took
SICK. and that brought things to crisis.
They packed up that night and left, the
boys cross. sun burned and dirty. the
minister and his wife worn out, sick a,
heart. and at an expense Of many dollars
more than they had counted on. And
it is firmly believed by many that the
cause of that ministers resignation a
few months later and acceptance OF ar
Iowa call, was due to tat experience
with those boys at Crete

The Sunday service was one OF the
most enjoyable and impressive Of the
session. The day was cool and pleasant
and nearly all the church goers from
Crete came over for the day. The time
was years ago when the grounds were
closed on Sunday as tight as a barred
door, when none were admitted or al
lowed to go out from midnight Satur-
day to Monday morning. when not
paper or bit OF mail came into the
place. But of late years with wiser and
more liberal management the grounds
have been open on Sunday as well as
other days, and the method has proved
beneficial and successful.
The courier. (Lincoln, Neb.) 1894-1903, 1897-07-10

Perhaps the people by whom the
Chautauqua is most thoroughly en-
joyed are the tired ministers of the
state whose only let-up from the years
work consists Of the ten days spent on
the grounds 1t is their only chance
for recreation and rest and uplifting
and broadening OF the mind. And
these ministers always come to Crete,
FOR here they find a clean, honest pro-
gram, such as they want and need, no
sensational attractions nor noted speak
ers that fail TO show up, but lectures and
class work on subjects in which they are
vitally interested. They brig their
families and spend the ten days and go
back refreshed in body and mind.
