CHAUTAUQUA WEEK.
Committees Appointed-Will Issue
B0Oklet-HOme Coming
Week.

! The arrangements are in progress
and the committees will now get to
work to make Chautauqua week, be-
ginning June 10, a notable event in
the history Of Newbcrry, town and
: county.
! Everybody is familiar with the Hon.
Wm. Jennings Bryan ard even hose
who have heard him, desire 70 hear
him again. The people Of this Sec
! ton have read a great deal of Hon.
! Richmond P. Hobson, though very few
have had an opportunity to hear him
sneak. Both of these distinguished
citizens will be on the program dur
inc the week, and the only question
is, will the seating capacity OF our
opera house accommodate all who
may desire to hear these two promin-
ent citizens. The only way to be sure
of having the opportunity to hear
them, will be to secure season ticket
in advance. This will secure the
owner a seat, not only for these two
lectures, but for the other amuse-
ments. In other words, this will give
you admission to ten entertainments.
Just how they will be arranged will
be announced later.
In addition to what is to be given
at the opera house, the chamber OF
commerce will arrange for a home
coming week, and all former New
berrians will be invited to come
home once again, and to spend week
with their old friends and among
their old surroundings.
This Chautauqua week has been a.
ranged for the benefit Of the whole
! community and no individual will re-
ceive any personal emolument& fro1
the undertaking, and it is hoped that
all of the people will unite in making
this one of the most successful
events ever had in the city.
The following are the people who
vii! entertain for US during Chautau-
1ua week. It will be worth the price
that will be charged to have the band
and orchestra in the city for the week.
Tn addition to the numbers. giv"l
below, there will be a sacred concert
on Sunday afternoon, June 18, which
will be free and at which the man
agement hopes to arrange for SER

 THAT HER DAUGHTER
 WROTE LETTERS FOUND.

Philadelphia, Oct. 23-That Florence Bromley, formerly employed as steno- grapher by Allison MacFarlend when he had offices here, wrote letters to the man now under arrest in Newark for the alleged poisoning of his wife, was denied by the girls mother, to- day.
 ''It is a lie and nothing else,'' said Mrs. Bromley. when confronted with an interview with Prosecutor Mott, of Newark, to the effect that the letters found in Netherlands home "came from her daughter
 '1 know that Florence never wrote those letters. Mcfarland was a very dear friends of ours and a good neighbor. Mrs. Mcfarland was very fond of Florence and saw no reason to be jealous. In fact, it was Mrs. Mcfarland who suggested that my daughter take a place in her hus- bands office.
 But there was nothing more than respect and mutual esteem between Florence and MacFarland.''
 Mrs. Bromley refused to allow her daughter to be seen, saying she was nervous and upset.''

 The following is from ''The Soul of the Indian," book by Dr. Charles Alexander Eastman, himself an Indian:
 "Long. before I ever heard of Christ or saw i white man had learned from an untutored woman the essence of morality. With the help of dear na- ture herself she taught me things sim ply but of mighty import. l knew God. I perceived what goodness is. I saw and loved what Is really beautiful. Oiv- ilization has not taught me anything better. As child I understood how to give. have fo q tten that grace since became civilized. lived the natural life, whereas l now live the artificial. Any pretty pebble was valuable to me then, every growing thing an object of reverence. Now worship with the white man before a painted landscape whose value is painted in dollars. Thus the Indian is reconstructed, as the nat ural rocks are ground to powder and made into artificial blocks which may be built into the walls of modern soci- ety."

A Hercuiean Katydid.

Experiments conducted by natural ist attached to one of the governments scientific bureaus at Washington ad- duced an interesting example of the strength of the katydid He harness ed a katydid to a kind of sled made by folding piece of ordinary note paper. and then loaded the sled with various articles. The insect proved able to draw. in addition to the orig inal paper, twelve paper sheets each 8 by Az inches. a large screw, two steel pens, a stone weighing two ounces and three and a half lead pen cils. When the weight became too heavy to draw otherwise, the katydid got it's fore feet over the edge of the table for a better hold, and on the addition of another weight it increas- ed the adhering power of it's feet by moistening them in its mouth.-New York Tribune.

Rigness of Big Ben.

Big Ben, which marks the hours for parliament at the top of the clock tow CT at Westminster, is bigger than it ap- pears from below. Looking at the dial of Big Ben from the northern footway of Great George street or from the Thames embankment, it appears as if it's diameter might be equal to the space that man of medium size could cover with outstretched arms. As a matter of fact, however, the diameter of the dial Is twenty-three feet. From the ground the minute marks on the dial look like ordinary minute marks and as if they were close together. Really they are a foot apart. The nu- morals are two feet long. The minute hand, with its counter balance-the heavy piece of metal that projects be- yond the center of the dial-is fifteen feet in length. This hand is so massive that during a snowstorm the clock is sometimes retarded by the weight of the flakes that aiight on it.-London Mail.
