FORT DODGE, Ia. Aug. 22-(speciaL)-
The chautauqua assembly now being held
in this city will close a very successful
eight days session next Sunday. While
no men OF national reputation have been
secured by the management this year, the
entertainment has been excellent and the
citizens OF Fort Dodge and Webster
county have voted TO continue the chau-
tauqua next year. One Of the most sue
eessful programs was given on wednes-
day, when President A, B. Storms OF the
State Agricultural college spoke, and the
Fifty-siKth regiment band furnished the
music. Two hundred and fifty pioneers,
who came TO this count between the years
ls4s and 1868 were present, as the guests
OF the Webster County Historical society.
Thousands attended the sessions on that
day. The meetings are being held at OLE
son park, a short distance south of the
city.
