One of the most brilliant lecturers
on the American platform, Thomas
Brooks Fletcher, will be in Bemidji
again next Monday evening at the
M. E. church auditorium as the next
number of the Woman's Study Club
Lyceum program.
Mr.. Fletcher, when in Bemidji the
last time, gave a lecture on the sub
ject, "The Martyrdom of Fools" In
thought Mr.. Fletcher was profound,
keen and convincing. In delivery he
was powerful, fascinating and dram
attic. In personality he was cordial,
refreshing and original. His COM
ing again is much looked for by Be-
midi Lyceum goers.
Thomas Brooks Fletcher is one of
the few new and big ones in the Ly-
ceum and Chautauqua field. He is
the youngest of the great lecturers
who fill today the places held on the
rostrum a generation ago by Henry
Ward Beecher, Wendell Phillips and
others of the "great ones gone be-
fore and ever by He was success
as Journalist and newspaper writer
and met immediate recognition when
he left journalism for the more I'M
trammeled publicity of the PLATFORM
He is a dynamo of earnest thought
with marvellous gift of conveying
his thought to his hearers. There
is no doubt but that Mr.. Fletcher
is one of the few truly great orators
of the time and with a message of
paramount Importance. Some of his
subjects are: ''Tragedies of the I'm
prepared and 1.-The Modern Judas. -
Here is typical Acknowledgement
of Mr.. Fletcher's work published in
the Belle Plain Gowa) Union:
Thomas Brooks Fletcher opens
fire on his audience with the rap
idity of a gatling gun and the force
of thunder storm Is but
by sheer force of an indOmitable and
Irresistible personality, he drives
home his facts, and exposes in all
their hideous and contemplate de-
formity many Of our economic, social
and political acts of hpyrocisy. The
preacher, teacher, and politician, and
editor, who are afraid to sneeze I'M
til their constituents take snuff try
to hide under their seats before
Fletcher gets through with them. He
is the strongest man on the lecture
course and his message ought to be
heard in every town in the land

 He saw Slater and Appleton and the rest of his s'boys,'' he saw Natalie and Eliza, but he was too tired to speak to them or to grasp what they said He heard the workmen cheering MeIlen and Parker and himself It was very foolish, he thought, to cheer, since the river had so nearly triumphed and the final test was yet to come.
 He fell upon his bed clothed as he was. An hour later the false work beneath span colla psed.
 Although the bridge was not yet fin ished, the most critical point of it's construction had been passed, for the fourth and final portion would be built over shallow water. and no great diff culties were to be expected even though the ice went out before the work was finished. But Murray had made his promise and his boast to complete the structure within stated time, and he was determined to live up to the very letter of his agreement with the trust. AS to the result of the breakup he had no fear whatever.
 For once nature aided him. She seemed to smile as if in approval of his steadfastness. The movement of the channel ice became irregular, spas modic, but it remained firm until the last span had been put in place.

strain. All knew that if it gave way the Workmen would be caught in q chaos of coilapsing wood and steel.
 From the morning of May 14 until midnight of the 16th the ironworkers clung to their tasks. They dropped their tools and ran to their meals; they gulped their food and fed back to their posts. The weaker ones gave out and staggered away, cursed and taunt- ed by their companions. They were rough fellows and in their deep throat ed profanity was a prayer
 !. At midnight Of the 18th the last riv- ct was driven, but the ice had gained to such an extent that the lower chord was buckIed down stream about eight inches, and the distance was growing steadily. Quickly the traveller was. shifted to the false work beyond the pier, and the men under Mellen's direc- ton fell to splitting out the blocking.
 As tho supports were chopped away the mass began to crush the last few wedges; there was a great snapping and rending of wood, and some one, strained to the breaking point. shouted:
 Look out! There she goes!'
 A cry of terror arose. The men fed, trampling one another. in their panic. But A1ellen charged them like wild man. firing curses and orders at them until they rallied. The remaining sup ports were removed; the 1,500 tons of metal settled into place and rested se- curely on it's foundations.
 O'Neil was the last man ashore. As he walked the completed span from pier the barrieade of piling beneath him was bending and tearing. but he issued no orders to remove it, for the river was doing that. In the general haste pile drivers, hoists, boilers and various odds and ends of machinery and material had been left where they stood. They were being inundated now. Many of them were all but sub- merged. There was no possibility of saving them at present, for the men were half dead from exhaustion.
 As he lurched up the muddy, uneven street to his quarters Murray felt his fatigue like a heavy burden, for he had been sixty hours without sleep.

 N F this dramatic struggle Eliza E Appleton had watched every
 phase with intensest interest,
 but when at last she knew that the battle was won she experienced a peculiar revulsion of feeling. So long as O'Nei1 had been working against odds, with the prospect of ruin and failure forever imminent, she had felt an almost painful sympathy, but now that he had conquered she felt timid about congratulating him. He was no longer to be pitied and helped. He had attained his goal and the fame he long ed for. His success would inevitably take him out of her life She was very sorry that To paeGel her no longer
