 Mrs. F. E. kreyer arrived Wednesday night to visit with her husband. who IS member of the orchestra.
 Dr. Stewart went down to Fay etteville Tuesday for a short visit with friends and from there 10 South Greenfield, Mo-, where he lectured Wednesday night.
 The kreyers were entertained at dinner Thursday by MT. and Mrs. C. C. Clark, residing north west of town. The families are old friends both having formerly resided at Bentonville.
 Mrs. NJ. H. Kidd is reporting the Chautanqua for The News this week, She edits the W. (. T. U. column in this paper and has had considerable experience i'll newspaper work. Her reports are readable, concise aid compre- henSive.
 Those nice pot plants seen on the rostrum Tuesday night were kindly sent in by Mrs. K. H. Par due. The committee would be pleased If other ladies would send plants to assist in the decorations. They add much 10 the beauty and eheerfulness of the surroundings.
 The orchestra was mp 10 its usual standard oi excellence Tuesday night. 'Remick Hits, iii which several late tavorltes were introduced was well recelv- ed by the audience. The musi- cal Trip to Coney Island" vas perhaps more agreeable to me t of the audience than an ac

homes, they organized the Left Handed Brigade and when the cru1ical hour arrived and the gran army Of Benjamin was about to suffer defeat. the reject cd seven hundred appeared to save the day. The dramatic recital of this new old story was thrilling.
 The lesson Is, conquer your dit. fgulties, yield not to discourage ments.
 Many examples of great sue cess under the most disheartening conditions were cited. Blind Heber, who taught the world all II knows about bees, and others, who, through the greatest hind raHees, still reached the summit.
 What is genius? To this ques- ton of Dr. Greens addressed d few weeks ago to a graduating class, d young girl gave the best possible answer. Genius IS the infinite capacity for hard work. Value depends on the cost of cre- ation. He who attains must patiently climb from the lowest round of the ladder. Eighty-fve per cent of the railway presidents of the United States rose from tile grease and grime of the shops and tracks to the highest position attainable.
 \ few eXpresslons used by Dr. Green fastened themselves like nails in the memory: The art of work lS better than the work of art. Success depends on taking tie next to hand and doing It. For every one there IS something better than he is now doing.

News Correspondents Organize,

The meeting of News cores pondents at the Auditorium Wednesday, afternoon was pro- nounced q success by all those whd attended. although there was considerable disappointment over the failure of a number of the tribe" to be present, some of whom were on the program. But there were quite a number of cor respondents in attendance, and also number of visitors.
 The meeting was called to or der by the editor of The News, who acted as temporary chair man, and ]. E. Tillman was chosen temporary secretary. The exercises were opened with prayer by NJ. Murphy. and in absence of Hon. w. l.. Simpson, who was on the program for an address of welcome, the editor, figuratively speaking, extended the glad hand, and assured all they were more than welcome. Jas. Venable re- sponded gracefully on behalf of the correspondents.
 Marion Mason, of Johnson, then read his paper, .'Some of my experiences while acting as cor respondent for The News, " which, as those who have been reading his items for years very well know, was good and thoroughly enjoyed by all. Following the reading of the paper was a gener- al discussion of points of interest to correspondents, and was parti- eipated in by Messrs. Venable, Murphy, Tillman, Wilburn, Ma son and Mesdames Tooker and Sturdivan.
 After the completion of the program the "Springdale News Correspondents Association vas organized by the election of the following officers: President, Marion Mason, Johnson; vice president, NJ. Murphy, Spring dale; secretary. James Nenable, Elm Springs.
 A constitution and bylaws were adopted, and provision was made for holding annual meet ings.
 The following correspondents were present at the meeting: Marion Mason, Johnson; Mrs. H. E. Tooker, West Fork; H. Myrick, Millersville; Mrs. Sturdivan, Oak Grove; Ernest Wilburn, Wood lawn; Roy Reed, Cave Springs; Henry Cannon, Macedonia; J. B. Tillman. Springdale; NJ. Murphy, South Springdale; Mrs. E. NJ.

Tuesday.

Another large audience was present at the opening of the Chautauqua Tuesday morning. After several selections by krey- CTS orchestra they presented the overture, Country Life, repro ducing the familiar music (z of cowbells, ducks, chickens, geese and frogs interspersed with the sweet notes of bird songs. The listeners showed theIr appreel- ation by hearty applause.
 A statement from Prof. Simp- son that Dr. Green. the speaker for the morning had missed con- nection and was unable to be present. caused q cloud of disap- pointlacnt. which was quickly dispelIed by the announcement that Dr. Stuart had been per suaded to stay over and occupy the time. His lecture Lopsided Folks, was well received. Only mental and moral deformities were referred tG. God has given 10 each, certain clements which may be developed by use. We have trinity of clements. A man may think, laugh and weep. May think Gods great thoughts after him. may develop his brain. This nation will be great only when t has brainF motherhood. Laughter IS the world : best medicine, while tears often spring from the hearts tenderest emotions. Itis manly. womanly to weep. There are tears of joy, tears of gratitude and tears of of sympathy.
 There ls also another trinity. Business, society and religion. Some men are al business. All thoughts, time and interest are devoted to business. to the utter neglect af home. civic and relig- ious duties. Such men are of no use except as warning toothers.
 Society people fared badly at the hands of the speaker and were properly lanbasted.
 The best things were spoken of religion. Some men have re- ligion only, and will walk five miles to church but not hundred yards 10 pay debt. True relig- ion develops character, brings out all the best there is in d man. Teaches him to see God III all things, To reverence his own body, mind and heart. Few are physically sound. Improve your physical health by frequent baths by deep breathing Don't lose heart, cultivate love of beauty. Read Gods thoughts as written on the mountains, as sounded in the oceans roar, as murmured by the flowing river and breathed on the fragrance of the flowers.
 An appropriate quotation from Lalla Rookh closed this eloquent oration.

3S usual the music Of the or ehestra was more than pleasing. The medley of popular airs espec- iaily evoking generous applause.
 F he lecture on Civic Bacter- ioiogy by Dr. Green was one of tile finest ever delivered before d Chautauqua or any other audi ence. It is impossible to report 1t with any sort of justice. Big thoughts followed each other with such rapidity clothed in the choicest language, startling sta tiSties came so rapidly that We forgot at times to take notes but listened with breathiess interest to the flow of eloquence.
 Only few of the many good things found record in our note book. No synopsis of the lecture can be given.
 The theme was the sociology and economics of our business life.
 Something of the ancient views of the science of health was pre- sented, of the time when people believed that all physical ills were caused by demons. God was magnifed humanity and punished or rewarded mankind in human way. Even till the time of Christ the existed faith in the power of demons and the sacred writers, using the vernacular of the day. talked of the casting out of dev- 1 ills. Later there was a change and disease was treated from the outside. If a man was chilled he must be warmed. If he had few CT he must be cooled. If he had too much blood some must be drawn. This was the faith and practice of our grandslres. i Scientists of today declare that the ancient faith was nearer cor rect than its successor, tor though we are not tormented with thous- ands of demous still the millions of bacteria that sometimes find Judgement in our bodies bring disease and death.
 Demons have given way t microbes. These like dirt, arc harmless in their proper place, which Is not the human body. Space fails us to speak of the re- marks on the advance of knowl- edge and surgery.
 Leaving the subject of the hu- man body, Dr Green proceeded 10 consider the bacteria.that af- Aiets the civic body. \ very dangerous germ comes from OH unrestricted Immigration laws. In 1900 S3I percent of our popu- lation was foreign born, and this ratio is constantly increasing CT the wrong side.
 In 1904 one million foreigners came to our shores, and during the last fiscal year there came one million three hundred thou sand. The reason for this great influx was found III the better chances to secure the comforts o.

The children of Springdale were present in force Tuesday night to see the moving pictures. The front seat was early filled with restless boys, eager for the excitement of the show. Great was their disappointment when Prof. Simpson announced that the Vitagraph company had not yet arrived. Alas! for the small boys who had paid their precious sav- ings that they might see the wonders of the moving pictures and were doomed instead to listen to a polished, scholarly discourse from a college man. While We pity the boys and certain others who prefer entertainment 10 in- struction, still the audience generally were to be congratulat ed for the opportunity to listen to Dr. Green s uplifting and help ful lecture on 'Left-handed men.
 The speaker referred to imita- tors. \ man or woman makes a success and at once arises a crowd of imitators. This is true in business, in fashion, in literature. Scott, Byron, Barrie, Hope and Churchill were each followed by an ephemeral crowd of imitators.
 The old Bible story of the bat tie of the tribe of Benjamin, which was, perhaps. new story to many present, was as exciting as any accounts of the Japanese war.
 The seven hundred men who failed to pass their physical eX- animation because they were left handed watched their successful comrades march o.the defense oi their country. Then instead ot returning discouraged to their

The Ghautauqua managers fee. annoyed and disappointed be cause of the failure of the vita graph company to keep their con trac- out the substitute program was >0 well received Wednes day night as to evidence tht fact that the disappointment i~ not shared by the audience.
 kreyer's Orchestra Is a whole show in itself and treated the crowded house to large doses of Dr. Stuart,s medicine, laughter.
 For awhile the fun waxed fast and furious and the audience gave vent to their feelings of ap- preciation by loud and frequent cheers and TOTS of laughter.
 All appreciate not only the fine music rendered by this com pany, but their kindness in com ing to the rescue and saving the day.
 The other features of the pro- gram were d rendition by Mrs. Lulu Holeomb of Mrs. Rice Denominational Garden from the exquisite little story of Lovey Mary. Mrs. Holcomb recites with animation and clear distinct ar- ticulation. Her expression was good, but the selection gave no opportunity for the display Of dramatic power. The generous applause of the hearers testified to their appreciation of the read- ing.
 Mir. Beere followed with a vo- cal solo, It Was Not So To Be, . which was so heartily encored that be responded by singing My Wild Irish Rose. Mir. Beere has splendid voice, and his singing was delightful sur prise to all, and Chautauquans hope to hear him again. MT. Beere was accompanied on the piano by Miss Blanche Roberts, looking so dainty and sweet that eyes as we'll as ears were delight ed. Even our guest of honor, the great Dr. Green, paid her a pretty compliment.
 More fun and music from the orchestra concluded the program for Wednesday night.

Massachusetts az the isolated colony on
Penikes island in Buzsard's hay. have
cost the Bay state for the first fourteen
months OF the experiment s4s.043, according
to figures made public today. The greater
portion OF this sum, however was ex-
pended for. necessary initial expenses.

In 1896 the stale legislature appropriated

colony. Dr. Lewis said the FIRST year OF
the experiment had been a success and
claimed that the plan proved more econo-
