Frank G. Smith, the great
Chicago Divine, is to be at the
Chautauqua for the third time
this year, August 9&1O. The
people who have heard him the
most are the ones most anxious
to hear him again. He ranks
in the class with Beecher and
ICadman and Newell Dwight
Hills and by many is consider
ed to be the leader of his class.
If you have never heard DR..
Smith you ought to take advan-
tage Of this opportunity. If
you have heard him you willnot
need this invitation.

thought of the native composer.

Tacoma Pedestrians Hit Spokane
Down and Out.

Carl Raupp and Oscar Holland
two of the three boys who started
out from Tacoma a few weeks ago
on the long walk to Chicago, arrived
in Spokane yesterday at 1:15, "a
hours ahead of their schedule. The
third member of the party has gone
back, and is in the hospital having
taken sick near North Yakima, says
the Spokesman Review.
Starting from Tacoma at 10 a. m,
December 10, the walkers claim to
have covered 404 miles on foot in s
days and three hours. They were OIL
their feet an average of 10 hours =
day. Raupp, who is a wrestler and
does strong man stunts for the ex-
penses OF the trip. is indignant that
he is unable to get recognition from
the Spokane Amateur Athletic club
He is trying TO make arrangements
with Mike Butler for an exhibition
during the boxing bouts tonight. and
may accomplish this. He also issues
challenge TO any amateur wrestler
in the city and makes no weight slip
ulation He weighs 40 pounds.
The shoes Of both boys are pretty
we'll worn down They are wearing
big lumberjack boots of heavy leath-
or, and will need new footwear if
they continue their long jaunt east
ward to the Windy City.
Raupp, however. is disguised with
the inability Of his party to secure
enough money TO make expenses, and
says he will go no further on the
trip to Chicago if he can gain no rec
ognition here. He declares he and
his partners have made better aver
age time than did Edward Payne
Weston on the latter's long walk
from New York to Chicago, and
points out the fact that the roads in
this country are much worse and that
it is more mountainous. He says
that many times he and Holland have
had to walk in rain and snow and
hug the furnace room of sawmills
while their wet clothes dried.
on Christmas day they walked al
the way from sprague to Cheney,
&c miles, in the driving snow and
rain. and yesterday morning set out
from Cheney on their last walk to
Spokane The boys expect to stay
here a few days. and if there seems
