ChautauQuans Pleasantly Mtn4le Their
Pastimes on the Grounds.
Texas Day has come and gone, clad
with all the pomp and glory that the
patriotic Texans could possibly give IT.
The day was brilliant success and after
listening to the program the Colorado
people found they had learned much
more of the immerse Lone Star state
than they had ever known before. AT
the close Of Dr.. Wilson's lecture Satur-
day afternoon dainty little reception
was given the children at the blue pavil
ion. Mrs. Harry Hatch, Mrs. Bryan,
Miss Whitmore and Mrs. Eli Hirsh6eld
acted as a reception committee. The
children registered in the Texas Day
book and were given the Texas Day
souvenirs. dainty Texas flags tied with
patriotic clusters of red, write an! blue
ribbon. AT a p. m. the Texas ladies'
gave very interesting program m the
woman's pavilion. Mrs. E. q. Ander-
son of Waco presided and made very
clever opening speech. Fiom to the
Texas ladies' gave pretty reception in
the c. L. S. c. headquarters. The tent
was beautifully decorated and crowds of
handsomely dressed Texas women well
coined their hosts of friends. The pro-
gram for the day passed off without
break which with all the inconvenience
incidental to camp life reflects great
credit on the ladies. The chairmen of
the committees for the day were as fol-
lows: Refreshment, Mrs. Darwin; souv-
enir, Miss Br, ant; finance, Mrs. Charl-
ton; decorations, Miss Rawlins and re-
ception, Mrs. E. G. Anderson. While
this was all gong on with the Texss
ladies', the young people of the grounds
were holding high carnival in the blue
pavilion tent The tent was eXquisitely
decorated and the charming Miss Gaff
ney of Denver sat within the inner tent
reading palms, and prephecying health,
wealth and good fortune to all with a
cheerful impartiality delightful to be-
hold. The grand concert with which
the brilliant day CLOSED was interfe1ed
with by heavy wind which was blow
ing. Prof. Behr is giving TO the west a
musical treat which should bring crowds
from all over the state. Mrs. Behr's
piano playing is wonderful and her
rendition of Rubens ems Etude delight
ed h.r audience. Mrs. J. Otis Huff and
Miss Berthe Berlin, Bou der's sweet
singer, sang in their usually pleasing
manner. All the sololss did remarkably
well and the chorus gave evidence of lis
fine training by Prof. Behr.
Yesterday was very quiet at the Chau-
tauqua. Everyone seemed to be resting
from the excitement of the dav before.
In the afternoon in the auditorium DR..
Wilson delivered his famous sermon on
"rhe Christ of History" Dr. Wilson
gave most brilliant and vivid descrip-
ton Of the three and half years that
Christ worked amoHg men and thrilled
the hearts of his audience with his i'm
passioned eloq1ence. In the evenir &
Prof. Behr gave one of his Sunday even
ing concerts that are 50 much enjoyed
by the Chautauquans.
This afternoon the Chautauquans will
again study socialism and will listen to
Rev. Thomas Malone of Denver, who
will lecture on 'Socialistic Fallacies,
while this evening the clever imperson
ator, Edwin Barker. will entertain the
Chautauquans with David Copperield." "
The Chautauquans got thoroughly
cooled off Yesterday. Wrapped up in
furs and heavy coats they began to real
ze that after all they are "among the
clouds" and moving in the upper circles.
