And Have Carrie Nation Show You
Tomorrow.
Several large crowds have been
present for special sessions of the
Chautauqua, notably the gothering
on Sunday evening to hear the sacred
concert and sermon-lecture anu again
| on Monday afternoon, when Senator
La Toilette drew the largest audience
that has so far been assembled, but
it is confidently believed that the
outpouring today will break the rec
ord-if the weather is fine. The Mis-
sourians will be here from all parts
OF the valley, and other nationalities
will be out in force to hear their not
ed speaker, DeArmond.
Some say that Carrie Nation is
drawing the largest crowds of any
lyceum lecturer. Whether the people
the noted "smasher," or from an
earnest desire to hear her lecture his
tory sayeth not, but it is admitted
that she draws crowds. She will be
here on Saturday and we will then
know whether or not her drawing
power has been overestimated.
Rev. E. J. Sias is billed to deliver
his famous lecture BLACK Rock" on
Sunday afternoon, the closing day OF
the Chautauquo and this is said to be
an entertainment that should not be
missed.

Fair Notes
Secretary Hall reports an encouraging
outlook for the approaching Fair being a
most successful one.
The premium list is being distributed as
widely as possible-those no. receiving
copy Of same will be furnished one by
calling at the secretarY's Office. or on
written request.
The Fair officers realize that special
effort must be made to get exhibits to
take the place Of the fruit show. which
will not be as good as IN former years on
account Of the late spring freeze. But a
splendid showing can and will be made
Of agricultural products. which will very
largely take the place OF the fruit The
aim Of the directors is to make the Fair
! wcrihy exponent Of the many resources
Of tbs grea: Arkansas Valley. and in this
they should have the active support OF all.
The liberal purses offered for the trot-
ting. pacing and running races will en-
courage the best horsemen to make en-
ties and there will be closely contested
ana exciting races.
In addition TO ,he regular trotting ard
running races there will be other smuse-
msnr features every afternoon, so thas
visitors will not only see the best fair in
the state but also splendid amusement
