TER AMUSEMENT.
Oct. 21st !: the date for the open.
inc of the Lecture Course season OF
1901. These entertainments will
be given In the Gale Theatre as in
past years. The management fee
sure that once more they have found
and scheduled talent that will meet
the desires of lecture course patrons
and please them. No pains and care
and expense has been spared to OBJ.
tain what seemed to fit the situation.
The list OF lecturers contains the
names Of Ex-Judge Geo. D. Alden
Of Boston, Ex-Gov. Joseph w. Folk
Of Missouri, DR.. Monroe Markley, of
Denver, and Senator Thos. P. Gore,
the blind man eloquent, o. Oklaho-
ma. 1t would be dificult to find a
list Of names that represent more
than the above named. Judge Alden
left the Supreme Bench of IIassa-
chusetts for the lecture field, not
because he was a poor Judge but be-
aus the public platform gave him
a chance to express progressive ideas
in a way that the bench did not. He
wanted to mould public opinion on
great social questions, and he is do.
ing so. The course opens October
81 with Judge Alden as the attrac-
ton.
To recall the name Of Joseph w.
Folk of Missouri Is sufficient to at
tract attention with those interested
in the best things in government.
The record made by Joseph w. Folk
while governor of Missouri is elo-
quent history. Grafters, mere poll
~ticians, and crooks learned to fear
him. One boss in st. Louis exclaim-
ed in his indignation: "Joe Folk acted
as If he'd written the ten command
ments." Evidently lolk was fortu-
nate in his enemies. He has a mes
sage.
DR.. Monroe Markley halls from the
West, from Denver, Colo. OF him
Judge Lindsey says: "No nor pow
erful man than Monroe Markley ever
occupied a pulpit in the West. In
DIR. Markley's lectures there is a
message. They breathe the powei
and spirit of a sincere, eloquent,
splendid, strong man"
Sen, Thos. p. Gore is a new man
who has been doing important things
In a new state. The services of Sen.
ator Gore are hard to get and the
committee is fortunate to have a con.
tract fe him. Wherever he goes he
attracts attention. With the Sen.
sate at Washington he is ar import.
ant figure and in his home state. Ok.
lahome, his advice and help is sought
by all. Like Ex.-Gov. Folk, his mes
sage Is one on social responsibilities
an | he speaks as a man who has done
re4l things.
Alton Packard is coming back. 1t
has been years since this %cartoonist
and entertainer has been in Mitchell,
va those who heard him then have
never forgotten him; nor have they
ceased to ask: "Why don't you get
Packard back again?" This year
! hc is coming. We want you TO see
and hear him.
The musical numbers have been
, selected with particular regard to
the demands Of our audience. The
| Pasmore Concer. Co., contains four

musical prodigies. They began con-

, certain stage-he is successful.
The kellogg Haines Singing Party

Their time before this aso has
been taken up with far western OF
eastern tours. lnis company plays
good music: that is. they please the
