The Redpath Lyceum Course

Strickland W. Gillian, the
formost humorist of America, is
to appear on the Redpath course
at the Star Theatre, November
3rd. In the last two years Mr..
Gillian, poet lecturer, humorist,
has been a speaker at banquets
with President Taft. The first
was at Peoria, I'll. His subject
was Me and the President. "
There were eight hundred invit-
guests. The President led the
applause. A few months later
he'was invited to speak with the
President at the Ohio Society
Banquet in Philadelphia and
made a big hit.
He is we'll known in Lyceum
and Chautauqua, and spends
most of his time filling return
dates. He is a contributor tt
many of the leading Magazines
and is writing more real poetry
than any other American Auth
or. As a member of the Auth
or's Club O. London, he is asso
ciated with such writer's al
Conan Doyle, Anthony Hope
Sir Gilbert Parker and othel
men Of letters. His 'Sunshin'
and Awkwardness" or h
Sample Case.of Humor" neve
fail to reach an audience.
If the people Of Okolona full
realized what a treat there is i
store for them and that tn
town will really be honored b
his presence, there is rot a
auditorium large enough to hol
the people who would come
hear him.
Come, bring your friends, Sc
to it that Gillian has such q
audience IS such a distinguish
mar des res.

HOBBIES OF CROWNED HEADS
Mania for Making Collections of Varl'
DUG Objects Seems to Have Been
the Chief of Them

The award to the king of Italy Of
"A prize from the French Academic
DIES Inscriptions ct Bellies Lettres in
connection with his numismatic work
suggests some other hobbies Of
crowned heads.
King George is an ardent stamp
collector, and his sister, the queen
Of Norway, is said TO derive much
amusement from her collection of
press clippings giving inaccurate ac-
counts of her own doings.
King Edward had a most curious
hobby, the collection Of the avoirdu-
pois of his friends, all Of whom had
to undergo the ordeal of the San
dringham scales, the host himself
keeping the records.
Queen Victoria's hobby in collec-
tons was a rather melancholy one,
taking the form of s~epulchral memo
rails of her friends and relations.
The kaiser, Of course, has innu-
merable hobbies in art, music and
letters, and in addition he has the
finest collection of uniforms in the
world. Louis XVI's tastes ran il
the direction Of clocks, and George
" made one of the finest collec.
tons of snuff boxes ever assembled
in addition to 800 whips and 50(
pocketbooks, which were found at hi
death.
