days ago. The state president, Mrs.

A venturesome young couple nearly
lost their lives on the lake Wednesday
evening by venturing out in boat
too far, when heavy wind came up.
1t was about 10 o'clock and the young
man found it impossible to row in.
Had 1t not been for some people on the
beach that heard them and went to
their assistance, they might have be-
fore morning seen watery grave.
The Chautauqua this year so far, has
been marked by its smoothness and
lack of accidents of any kind.

The Indians took up their tents on
Friday and started for their homes on
the Fort Totten reservation. Since
the Chautauqua began thirteen years
ago. it has been the annual custom of
the Indians to make a visit to the
Park, and camp for few days.
AS the years go on, one cannot but
notice the remarkable strides towards
civilization they make in their habits,
their dress and general department.
In few years we will see no more of
them, for the full-blooded old Indians
are dying off rapidly. we are told.
The Robertson entertainers are here
again with their wonderful moving
pictures, good musical attractions, I'M
presentations. etc.
This is their sixth season at the
Chautauqua and they seem more
heartily welcomed each return. The
auditorium is taxed to its utmost at
each performance. Piano accompani-
ment of the most realistic kind fol-
lows the moving pictures all through
and adds greatly to their attractive
ness and interests. Mr.. Baker in his
own inimitable way sings selection at
ter selection interspersed with witty
remarks that keep the audience in roars
of laughter. and his songs with the
moving pictures to illustrate, are
popular and catch the public. Mr..
Baker believes in amusing an audience
and, he believes also in giving them
once in while something out of the
ordinary in high-class music. as he
will show before the engagement ends
