RILEY AND BILL NYE
They Once Made a Reading
Tour Together.
HOW THEY FIRST MET
Combination Most Extraordi-
nary and interesting.

Riley ever made was in 1SSs-9O with Bill
Nye, says the Indianapolis Journal.
This tour. which was made under the
management of the late Major ]. B.
Pond, did more than any other series TO
bring him into public favor. The tour
consisted of about 40 readings, and was
one OF the most stupenduous 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 In
dianapolis his health was greatly weaken
ed. The sale of his books OF poems and
prose increased by thousands of volumes
everywhere he appeared 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
hsi love Of his home he really dislikes to
go on the public platform. AS many times
as he has appeared before the public and
as immensely 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 overcofnes him during
the day before he is to give a reading
and for this reason an extensive series Of
readings is not arranged. Stage fright,
however, never troubles Mr. Riley after
he steps in front of an audience. The mo-
ment he begins a reading he has perfect
control OF himself; and. although he has
said many times that he often feared that
he would sometime forget parts of his
poems Just 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 win not be able to make
good appearance before his audiences
