lights of the speakers stand to tell
their friends OF the splendid oppor-
tunity there is at Third street and
Fairmont avenue to hear and see
some Of the finest artists in their re-
spectiye lines in the country, was
opened by Dunbar's Solree Singers,
and as In the afternoon they showed
resplendently. outshining their az
ternoon effort considerably. Henry
Clark in his PLAY Ball" played him
self into the hearts OF the people and
will long be remembered as the key
noter OF the Chautauqua. "Play
Ball" is, as It's title implies, based on
the great national game, but the
game Mr.. Clark had In mind was the
game OF life. His lecture was a prac-
tical, helpful, inspirational message
delivered with all the eloquence and
power Of master orator.
At nine O'Clock the elements en-
tered into the efforts of the Chautau-
qua celebrities in making last night
a memorable occasion. For a time
the 1000 people In the audience
seemed ready to fly for safety, rain
and wind frightening over 800 OF the
audience to such an extent that they
left the tent. No damage resulted
from the storm.
This morning Miss Eleanor White
side, children's worker, addressed
several hundred small children in the
Chautauqua tent at Children's Story
Hour and was particularly pleased at
the turnout, which was much larger
than expected.
The program for tonight, tomor-

Official change. Only the date on which
these appointments shall be made re.
mains to be settled In the Presidents
mind. Affecting that phase of the
matter are important considerations
OF presidential politics.
A few days ago II was limited that
these appointments might not be
made until after the November cleo.
ton in consideration OF their possible
effect In several directions on the
Presidents campaign for reelection.
But the latest Information is-and Il
Is highly credible-that the appoint.
ments will be formally announcer
within the next week or ten days.
The appointment of Mr.. Davis to
membership In the Cabinet will, Il
Is believed by West Virginia polite.
ians. preclude the appointment OF
Clyde B. Johnson, OF Charleston. to
succeed Judge George w. Atkinson
as Judge of the United States Court
OF Claims. 1t Is hardly likely, obsery.
ers argue, that two appointments of
this magnitude would be given TO ono
state at one and the same time, as.
pecially when the administration is
In the midst OF a campaign. AS the
appointment Of Mr.. Davis Is certain.

John'son's appointment to the bench

ant OF his organization, as well as
the expectant BENEFICIARY, Mr.. John.
son, Is in for a great disappointment.
Among the influential Democrats In
West Virginia who have boosting So.
licitor Davis at the White House lnot
that he needed It so, far as Woodrow
Wilson is concerned), attention has
been calld to the fact that Senator
Chiffon was not the number. From
that fact 1t Is not argued that he Is Cd.
posed TO the promotion OF Davis to the
Cabinet. but he realized that Davis

Johnson's judicial ambition. Senator
Chiffon has had his heart set on land

good. from the President to name

BILE, according 70 the view taken of Il

Certain * Is, though. that Davis Is
slated Groregory's place, and Greg.

Supreme Court bench. There isn't
a doubt OF that.
