The full import o. this announce.
ment perhaps does not appeal to all
as this will be the initial appearance
of Father Vaughan. Had he been

fence would tax the capicity of our
largest auditorium.
The local council have been work
ing on this proposition for several
weeks and feel greatly elated that
their efforts have been crowned with
success, thus giving the Keokuk peo-
pie an opportunity to hear the cele-
brated orator before his departure for
long engagement in the east to
which he goes Immediately after his
appearance here.
Several people here have had the
good fortune to have heard Father
Vaughan at other cities and many
more have heard of his wonderful
ability.
AS a dramatic orator he has no SUI
perior, His magnetic personality as
the very essence OF eioquence. He
presents great truths as vividly as
flashes of lightning and has the rare
power of making popular, the classical
lecture.
Father Vaughan will lecture at the
Grand opera house Wednesday even
ing March "a, his subject to be The
Power of Love"
Tickets have been made at fifty
cents each and can be reserved with,
out extra charge.
Those who are appreciative of the
