NO SLEEPY HEADS IN
JUDGE ALDEN'S AUDIENCES

Here is what the West Liberty
Iowa, Index says Of Judge Alden:
t'He. went at his address hammer
and tongs. The writer has been at
tending public addresses of all sorts
for thirty years, but never before
has he encountered man who put
so much energy into his remarks as
did Judge Alden. Before he had
been speaking two minutes his aud
fence was magnetized by his elo-
quence and earnestness. He is a
member of the supreme court of his
state and his message is a sermon
from a lawyer and business man to
his fellows" He will lecture at the
Seelye theatre tomorrow night on
the lyceum course. Single admis-
sion 35 cents.
