GOV BUCHTEL.
Brilliant and Magnetic Governor Lectures
on Abraham Lincoln, Sat-, Feb.
18th, Library Benefit.

Never has so brilliant and high
priced a platform orator been Sc
cured to speak in our city as Gov
Buchtel of Colorado. This man, Sec
ond only to VIM. j. Bryan on the
American platform, appears in a
big Lincoln celebration at Pierre,
S. D.. Feb. 18th and is on his way
east to fill lecture dates.
By taking him Saturday night it
has been possible to secure him for
his lecture and also offer seats at
popular prices. Hisgreatest lecture
is the one on Abraham Lincoln and
is very fitting for this centennial
year.
Gov. Buchtel is chautauqua fav-
orite whose eloquence and flashes
of humor electrify audiences.
He was and still is chancellor of
the University and was induced to
accept the nomination on the Repub-
lican ticket with the understanding
that if elected he would serve only
one term.
He was elected by a handsome
majority and he took the oath of
office in state that was almost in
condition of civil war growing out
of the labor riots which had been
characterized by bomb throwing and
assassination.
Seats will be on sale at Hitchcock
Thursday, Is and IS cents.

CtiAUTAUQUA COURSE FOR
REDWOOD FALLS NEXT JULY
Offer Open for Course Good Than That of
Last Summer and Will Undoubtedly Be Accepted
at a Citizens Meeting Tonight.

cided to call a meeting this evening,
to which all men and women of the
town and surrounding country
would be invited, at which time the
whole matter would be finally de-
cided. 1t is greatly desired that
this meeting be made a representa-
tive one and that all friends of the
Chautallqua movement especially
should advise and instruct the COM
mittee as to what decision to make
in the matter. There is not much
doubt about the action of this meet
ing, if it is really a representative
one as it should be.

That Redwood Falls will again
have fine Chautauqua course last
ing the same number of days as last
year is practically a foregone con-
cluslon. Mr.. Holiday of the Mid
land Lyceum bureau, Des Moines.
was in the city last Friday, and
went oyer the matter of putting in
a course here before number OF
business men. who had been asked
to meet him to consider his propo-
sition for a Chautauqua course the
coming summer. The course, as
outlined by Mr.. Holiday, would in
clude such orators as Senator Bob
Taylor of Tennessee, who first
sprang into fame as the man who
fiddled and talked his way into the
governors chair at Nashville, and
was later sent to Washington to
represent his state in the National
Senate. Other eminent orators on
the list are DR.. S. Mcdonald of
New York city. a great leader in
the Baptist denomination: DR.. lrl r.
Hicks, the famous weather wizard
of St. Louis, H. w. Sears, Col.
Gearhart, Denton C. Crowl. and
several others not so we'll known
here.
In the music line, the course
offers the Royal Hungarian orches-
ira, Norton's band and. orchestra,
Midland Jubilee singers, Eureka
Glee club, all of which gave excel
lent satisfaction here last year. as
we'll as several other good musical
organizations.
The wonderful educated horse
Mascot will be one of the novelties
of this summers course, and there
will probably be an unusually good
crayon artist, several humorists,
magicians, etc.
After outlining the course offered,
Mr.. Holiday went into the business
part of the proposition briefly. ask
ing that the citizens organize to
carry on the Chautauqua work from
year to year on a permanent basis.
AS nearly 600 tickets were SUBJ
scribed for last year. Mr.. Holiday
offered to put his Chautauqua at
fractions on at Redwood Falls and
make good at all points, conditioned
only that the citizens increase the
guarantee as to tickets to 125
additional So tickets. AS the course
was a losing one financially last
year with only 500 tickets guaran-
teed. the general opinion expressed
at the meeting was that the propO-
sition made was a reasonable one
and ought to be met by our citizens
without much difficulty.
In order that the matter might
be put before our citizens at large,
Mr.. Baldwin moved the appoint
ment of a committee = Messrs.
Aune, Nook, Laudon, Mosher. Hitch
cock and Aiken, to make a canvass
and ascertain the wishes of the
citizens. Subsequently, it was de-

Boosting for North Yakima.

The result of advertising and the
continued boosting Of few Mime
sotans is bearing results. say the
Yakima Republic, as during the past
week no less than six men have been
here looking over the valley from
the little town of Redwood Falls.
MINI. They were w., H. Gold,
banker; S. G. Peterson, merchant;
Chris Neuenschwander. late of Gold
Hill, South Africa; D. L. Bigham,
county surveyor; A. C. Miller, CAPT.
talist, and J. A. Werner, telephone
manager.

They report that a great many
more would be glad to come out if
they could dispose of their holdings
in Minnesota. The best advertising
that was done was done by box of
apples that George E. Maltby, Of
the Naches valley, sent to Redwood
Falls, for exhibition purposes, as up
to that time no Yakima fruit had
ever been shipped in there. They
produced a big sensation and. since
then their dealers have been order
ing Yakima apples for their fancy
trade.

Can-sa-yapi Club.

By the efforts of Messrs. Nook
and Hitchcock and several ladies a
Walking club was started last sum-
mer for the purpose of spying out
the beauty spots around Redwood.
The club adopted the above name and
during the summer and fall made
numerous trips. Last Wednesday
evening Mrs. H. M. Hitchcock. one
of the most active members of the
club, invited the other members to a
six o'clock dinner at her home.
The house and table were beauti-
fully decorated with autumn leaves
and the menu cards were of birch
bark. The dinner was perfect in all
its appointments. After dinner a
short literary program was given,
Mr.. Hitchcock reciting Bryant Ode
to the Trees" and Mrs. Nook CIV
ing the poem printed below. Men,
bers present were: Rev. and Mrs.
Nook, Mr.. and Mrs. Hitchcock,
Mesdames Robinson, Finn, Peter
son, Howard and Dornberg and
Miss Everett. The club expect to
continue their strolls next summer.
One result has been the numerous
and artistic views of Redwood, by
Rev. Nook.
From the land of Can-sa-yapi,t
Land of woods. and hills, and rivers,
Where the water laughs and sparkles,
Tumblng Ger the falls and rapids;
Prom the wigwam of Itan-can-kin
Comes this word of friendly greeting:
Kola Turve omanipi
We would live to be among you,
In the tipi of our hostess;
See your faces, hear your voices,
Feel the warm clasp of your fingers,
Sit before the fire together,
Watch the red Goals growing redder
Hear the wind above the wigwam
And with voices choked with laughter
Live again the days of summer
That have gone the way before u.s.
Live again the long walks over,
In the forest, dim and fragrant
Where the branches,sfar above us,
Made arch that shut out heaven;
Climb again each rocky hillside,
Wade the rivers, climb the fences
Hear again the voice of summer
Ringing, singing, through the woodland.
Walk again in days of autumn,
When the wood all red and yellow,
Flaunts his banner, full of challenge
In the very face of Winter;
Feel the cold wind in our faces,
Hear the leaves beneath our footsteps,
Dry and barren, cry out in anguish
Oh the winter is upon u.s.
Walk again in days ofsswinter,
See the woods all bare and lealess,
See the lake, the falls, the river,
Cold and lifeless lay in silence,
Bound in chains by their new master;
Walk upon the frozen river,
Sit where in the days of summer,
Full of light and life and laughter
Fell the falls in all their glory.
We would like to be among you,
Live again those days of sunshine,
All the walks, the talks the rambles.
