TON AT ONCE.

The most conspicuous event in the
public eye at the present time is the
meeting of the North Dakota Chautau-
qua assembly at Devils Lake June %
to July %. The list of attractions for
this season would fill the columns of
this paper Nothing like it has before
been attempted in the northwest.
Thousands of people, unable to bear
the expense of trip to the great
Pan-American at Buffalo, are looking
around for a more. Inexpensive trip for
summers outing and the Chautauqua
management, anticipating this very
idea have arranged the most elaborate
program in the history of its organi-
cation. Every character of entertain
ment has been secured that will in
terest, entertain and educate. A pro-
gram for the learned and unlearned,
the big and little, the enthusiast and
the submissive, the ant and the DIR ,,le--
something for everybody, and all for
the price of one ticket. A Chautauqua
assembly at Devils Lake is star per-
Torrance of tremendous interest and
vast importance with comedy and trag-
edy, mimicry, acting, thing in tself--
living, throbbing-a vital force neces-
sary to enthuse, entertain and educate.
This years program, among other
features, presents the names of the best
known and greatest lecturers and orat-
ors before the American people. Men
who understand human nature and
how to touch the popular chord with
cosmopolitan audiences. Among these
men are

with shimmerings of sunshine, sadness,
fun and epigrams.
REV. J. F. NUGENr L. L. D.
Father Nugent, the celebrated
Roman Catholic divine, brings to the
platform no trickery, no bid for pop
ularity. There is no tragedy there
no studied effects. Instead he brings
a strong brain, full of subtle imagery
and apt illustration, an intense mag
netism, wonderful personal charm,
an all-pervading humor, surprising
simplicity, a commanding appearance,
a magnificent voice-after all, born
orator. Oblivious to all but his thought
you find he has taken you by the hand
and carefully led you to great depths
and past many dificulties-so surpris-
ingly easy and simple now-difhculties
you never thought you could surmount.
He burrows you all over with new brain
paths and leaves you in whirl of new,
wholesome thought.
