Peoples Lecture Course
Meeting

The annual business meeting of
the Peoples Lecture Course Asso-
citation was held in the league room
of the Methodist church last Thurs
day evening. More interest than
usual was shown in the meeting,
there being present number of the
business men of the city in addition
to the committee, those present in
Guiding V. Bailey, H. A. Hagestad,
Ed. Pratt, F. D. Ensign, Geo.
Dodge, A. P. Forsyth, Geo. Skog-
mo, Percy APP Roberts, and others.
By unanimous vote, the old commit
tee, consisting of ]. w. T. Ames, c.
N. Wiger, Cotton Whitcomb, G. A.
Bird, and w. S. Welles. was elected
to serve another year. Prof. Ames
then gave report of his visit to
Eau Claire the previous week in the
interests of the course. At that
time representatives of lecture
courses at Menomonie, New Rich
mond, Rice Lake, Hudson, Chippe-
wa Falls, Eau Claire and River
Falls met at the new Y. M. C. A. in
Eau Claire to take the first steps
towards arranging lecture course
circuit, the purpose being to buy
talent in common, in order that it
may be bought at lowest possible
figure, and that it may come to the
various towns by short jumps and
in the best possible physical condi-
ton, and with the least possible
chance of missing dates. The first
steps towards such organization
were taken, and courses arranged
for the circuit, as many towns as
possible taking the same talent.
After reporting the meeting, Mr..
Ames presented the talent selected
by the towns of the circuit, to-
gether with other talent, with
prices and tentative dates, and
after consideration those present
voted unanimously to instruct the
committee to purchase the course
outlined, the numbers including
four that were selected for the en-
tire circuit, and three others that
were selected for part of the cir
cult. The course as selected con-
siStS of seven numbers, and pre-
Sents an array of talent seldom
seen in towns the size of River
Falls, or in any towns, in the same
season, and seems to guarantee to
the people of this community the
best course in its history. Full
particulars as to the various num-
bers will be given in due time.
They include 1.-THE Hussars,"
singing company of nine men, that
includes some of the best quartette
work in the country, and at the
same time has the popular qualities
of the college alee club; "The Uni
versity Girls" musical organiza-
ton of the highest order, furnish
ing vocal and orchestral music;
The International Operate Com
pany," mixed quartette, made up
of high class artists, singing the
best of operas; Frank ], Cannon"
and Lincoln Mcconnell" two of
the best lecturers obtainable any
where; Robert Parker Miles," ORA
matte Lecturer and unequalled in
his line; and Sarah Mildred Will
mer," dramatic reader and imper-
senator, the peer of any in the
lyceum work today. This ought to
furnish a course without a weak
number in it, and one to meet the
tastes of everybody.

Atlanta Detectives Raided Law Office.
Atlanta, Aug. 6.-That the Atlanta
detective department will have to an
sWer in court for having raided the
law office of Judge George f. Gober
yesterday and Selling certain dia-
MOI DIS tucked away in his safe is
practically certain, as the judge says
he was away from Ills office when
Clief of Detectives Lanford and his
mer appeared with their possessory
warrant, which therefore rendered
the search and seizure unlawful.
The diamonds are part of $4,000
worth which three clever thieves stole
frcn a jewelry drummer in this city
several months ago. One Of the
thieves employed Judge Gober as at
torney, and afterward made a clean
breast to the police. Judge Gober
says his efforts were responsible for
the thief's confession and the recov-
cry of the bulk of the gems. The
5000 or $400 worth he was holding,
he said, was to force his client to
pay fee.
