a tour through Illinois, Iowa and Ne
braska. the tour will be concluded
about the third week in December.
Mr.. John NJ. Dickey. Mr.. Riley's pri-
vate secretary, is making the arrange
mentS for the tour. and will accom-
pany Mr.. Riley throughout the trip.
The greatest tour James Whitcomb
Riley ever made was in 1889-90 with Bill
Nye. This tour, which was made under
the mana cement of the late Major ]. 3.
Pond, did more than any other series of
readings ever given by the Hoosfer poet
to bring him into public favor. The
tour consisted of about 140 readings,
and was one of the most stuDendous
tours ever undertaken by a reader or
lecturer Many weeks readings were
given six successive nights after long
days of hard, tiresome travel. When Mr..
Riley returned to Indianapolis his health
was greatly weakened. The sale of his
books of poems and prose increased by
thousands of volumes everywhere he ap-
pearad while on the tour of $3.50.
Never again will Mr.. Riley undertake
as extensive a tour as this one. As
Mr. Riley grows older he loves the
quiet of his own home more and more.
In comparison with his love of his home
he really dis1ikes to go on the public
platform. AS many times as he has ap-
peared before the public, and as i'm
TnenseIy successful as he has been in all
of his tours, he has never been able to
free himself. altogether of stage fright.
This feeling often overcomes him dur
ing the day before he is to give a read
ing. and for this reason an extensive

parts of the house. which in itself will
be a feature, for the prices for the
Riley entertainments are never less
than 81 and $3.50
The Indiana polls Journal says of the
present tour:
James Whitcomb Riley is planning a
reading tour through Ohio, Illinois and
parts of Michigan, Kansas, Missouri
and Nebraska, beginning the latter
part of September This will be Mr.
Riley's first extensive platform appear
ance since 100, when he made tour
through Illinois, concluding with two
immensely successful readings in Chi
cago.
The most significant thing about the
coming tour to Mr.. Riley and the PEG
pie who knew him when he first began
to come into public notice from his
writings. will be the reading to be
given at Anderson. October % The
function will be given under the aus
pices Of the literary organizations of
Anderson and the surrounding towns
Mr.. Riley has never given reading
in Anderson since he attained the po-
sition in the literary world which ne
has occupied the past fifteen years.
His coming appearance there will be
significant because it was at Anderson
that the Hoosier poet did the first
writing of verse and prose that
brought him into the public notice.

THE MUSICAL INSTRUCTORS
A Series of Lecture Recitals in Their
Interest

Next Tuesday evening at the First
Christian church, E. r. Kroeger, mu-
steal director of the Louisiana Purchase
exposition, pianist, composer and lee
turer, will appear in a lecture recital
the subject of which will be, 1.-The Emo
tional and Picturesque in Music" This
lecture will be the first of a series of
lectures and recitals to be given under
the auspices of the musical instructors
of Topeka for the benefit of their pupils
and for the public which is interested
in the proper appreciation of music. In
illustrating the points of his discourse
Mr.. Kroeger will render a number of
selections from the music of the mas
tiers. For those engaged in the study of
music this lecture will possess great
value. There are in Topeka about 900
people engaged in the study of musical
culture and to them a price of 25 cents
has been made for the entertainment.
To the public at large the price is so
cents. Whatever profits may accrue
from the Kroeger lecture will be de-
voted to securing other artists for sub
sequent appearances during the winter.
Among those whom it is hoped to secure
will be Harold Bauer, the greatest
pianist of America this year; David
Bispham, baritone of the Metropolitan
Opera company; Maude Powell. violin
list, and Mary Wood Chase, the cele-
brated pianiste Of Chicago.

ceived salary large enough to allow
him to spend all his time in literary
work. Anderson is the place where he
had his early struggles in the field of
literature. And it is eighteen years
since he has given any readings there.
In fact he never has given a really
public reading in Anderson. And so.
to Mr.. Riley, his appearance in Ander-

Riley enjoys reading tour said a

about four readings a week, spending

CAP. CURTIS DEAD
Well Known Topeka Character
Passes Away.
Has Been Active in Local Poll
tics for % Years.
WAS A CIVIL VETERAN.
Known as a Man of Inexhaust
ible HumOr.
His Flop Exchange and Kicking
Machine Made Him Famous.

Captain Robert NJ. Curtis died this
morning at z O'Clock at his home at
1854 Clay street For two months Cap
tain Curtis has been in very feeble
health on account of a weakness of the
heart and his death was not unexpect-
ed. He was a well known figure in
Topeka politics, and had been for twen-
ty years. His rotund figure usually
held down a seat at the precinct cleo
ton board at election time. Those who
have hung around campaign headquar-
tiers on the night of the returns will re-
member Captain Curtis who usually
brought in the ballots from his precinct
and stayed around until the votes were
all in, telling stories between waits. He
was a thorough political partisan, a
good mixer and when in a position of
trust a faithful worker.

series of readings is not arranged.
Stage fright, however, never troubles
Mr.. Riley after he steps in front of an
audience. The moment he begins a.
reading he has perfect control of him
self; and although he has said many
times that he often feared that he
would forget parts of his poems
lust when he wanted to interpret them
before an audience, he has never found
himself in this situation.
This feeling that he will not be able
to remember the poems he is going to
read and that he will not be able to
make a good appearance before his au-
diences sometimes takes such complete
control of Mr.. Riley that for two or
three hours before a reading he has
paced his room, his face pale and his
hands trembling with NERVOUSNESS.

COUNSEL CAN'T AGREE.
Differences Arise in Connection wiz
Bennett Will.

New Haven, Conn, Nov. 21.-The inabifs
ity of opposing counsel in the case of the
will of the late Philo S. Bennett to agree
on the form of the formal decree to be
entered in the probate court proceedings
was made manifest today when Judge
Henry Stoddard, as counsel for Mrs. Ben
nett, the widow and other heirs, flied with
Judge Livingston W. Cleaveland of the
court his draft of the form of the decree.
With it Judge Stoddard submitted a note
to the court saying that Attorney Hewitt
of counsel for William ]. Bryan, the eX-
ecutor of the villa had been unable to
agree with him az to the wording of the
decree the inference being that Mr.. Hew
lit will also submit his idea of the form
the decree should take and that the court
will have to settle the matter.
