The Springdale news., 1906-08-03

pOflunitN 10 snow HIS versatility.
 Did you ever notice that q Chautauqua crowd is always Tn a a hurryE If not. just watch 'em some evening shortly before the l hour set for the exercises to be- gin. We don't know why this is, unless 1t be that all are enjoying it so we'll they don't want to miss any of 1t.
 Among the many good things enjoyed by tie visitors to tile Chdutauqua may be counted the plentiful supply Of fans distribut- cd by the pioneer druggist, II. X. Daily. These are q real com fort to the possessors who hope, they may enable MT. Daily as well as themselves tc raise the wind.
 The new folding chairs were l placed In the center of the Audi torium Ill the most desirable DOT tion of the building, and have been sold as reserve reats for each entertainment during the Chau- tauqua. The most of the time the seats have been sold, and SO far as known there has been no complaint.
 Following is the instrumenta- tion of Kreyer's Orchestra, of Fort Scott, Kansas, which has delighted all Chautauqua visitors with their splendid music: E. G. kreyer, director; E. K. Kreyer, clarinet; F. E. kreyer, cornet; Elliot Long, bass: Miss Edith kreyer, piano; A. II. kreyer, cello; Ernie Gruber, trombone: Wm. Barr, drums and traps. This Is their fifth season in | Springdale. and they are prime favorites with all. They are domieiled at the Arcade.
 It took some quick hustling on the part of the committee Tues day morning to arrange pro- gram for the morning hour 4 short time before the hour for the exercises to begin telegram was received from Dr. Green stating that he had missed connections at Monett and would be unable to reach here. Dr. Stewart was halted just as he was starting for the station and prevailed on to remain over and repeat his lecture "Lop-sided Folks which he de- livered here last year. This is one of Mr. Stewards best lectures, and those who heard him appar- ently relished the lecture as much as when they first heard It. Dr. Stewart IS one of those rare speakers who stir up all the best there Is in anyone and wins place for himself in the hearts of all. Many have wondered If the stories he tells of his boyhood and his home life are true, and The News IS pleased to say that It has II from one who lives near him at his home in Cleveland, Tennessee, that everything IS just as represented and that he is not drawing on his imagination in what he says. He is one of the most popular men in hls section of the country and is beloved by his home people probably as no other man. It is indeed pleas ure to meet and listen to such man.
 No one regrets more than the committee the necessity of mak- ing changes in the program. It was not the fault of the commit tee that Dr. Green failed to ar rive in time for his morning lec- ture Tuesday. It was not the fault of the committee that the vitagraph failed to put in its ap- pearance. This attraction was booked through NJ. H. Aver, of Ada, I. T.. who was connected with the Chautauqua at Fort Smith and Fayetteville, and ii was presumed by the committee that NIT. Aver was clothed with authority to enter into such contract. Not only has the vita graph failed to show up but not word of explanation has been re- ceived The committee had a written contract for this attrac- tion same as every other adver- tised ln the program, and fl is a keen disappointment to them that it failed. This seems 10 be a year of disappointments for IChautauquas, as changes had 10 be made in the programs both at Fayettegille and Bentonyille by talent failing 10 appear.
