The eighth annual encampmem
OF the Waxahachie Chautauqua will
begin July 16, and on the morning
Of July 81 the camp fires will be
extingulshed. The last attraction on
the program will be the lecture by
Governor Folk Of Missouri on the
night of July 26. This promises to
be the crowning event OF the assem-
bly,. Governor Folk Is native Of
Tennessee but moved several years
ago to the graft-ridden city Of st.
Louis. In modest way he began
the practice OF law and in few
years was chosen by the people Of
that city as their circuit attorney.
1t was while discharging the duties
Of this office that he won national
reputation by the prosecution Of
boodlers. Through his untiring ef-
forts to purify the political atmos-
phere Of st. Louis several Of the most
prominent citizens of that city were
convicted and sent to the penitenti
airy. Strange as it may seem, after
his elevation to the office Of COVER
nor the former circuit attorney
granted full pardon to all bood
lers who were convicted as a result
Of his prosecution. The last two
convicted were released from the
penitentiary about two weeks ago.
All these facts will make the visit
of Governor Folk one of more than
ordinary interest.
All the plans for the Chautauqua
have been completed, and the man
agement expect a large attendance.
The park where the encampment
will be held contains thirty acres
of well shaded ground. through
which Waxahachie creek flows.
There are beautiful driveways, grav-
eled walks and an ice cold Chautau-
qua spring. The auditorium is one
of the best in the state large and
cool and well arranged for Chautau-
ana gatherings. Many tents are
stretched every year in the grove OF
trees. and people attend from every
section of the state The park is now
being cleaned and beautified, and
all things necessary for the conven-
ience and comfort of campers are be
ing done.
Two things have contributed to
the success of the Chautauqua,
namely. The best available attrac-
tions have been secured. thus turn-
ishing a program second to that of
no other Chautauqua in the country
and the price of tickets has been
kept down to the lowest point posst-
