ROCK ISLAND PARTY
HURT IN COLLISION

Mrs Fred Boetje and two children,
Lila and Charles, 1909 Twelfth street,
were injured in an auto accident near
COlfaX, Ill, Saturday it was learned
today Mrs. BOetje and her children
are visiting at the home of her moth
er, Mrs c. c. Hassler, in Bloomington.
On the day of the mishap they were
taking an auto ride through the cOun-
try The machine was struck by an
Illinois Central train at a screened
crossing. Although the car was COM
pIetely demolished, Mrs. Boetje and
children escaped with cuts and bruises
about the head They were brought to
Bloomington in the train. The pres
ence OF mind of the driver swerving
his car in the opposite direction when
he saw the train coming lessened the
force of the collision and probably
saved the lives of the party. The en-
CINE Sideswiped the auto.

CAN CRY BETTER
THAN REAL BABY
Miss EIma B. Smith Demonstrates
Right 70 Her Title as the Leading
Baby-cry Girl.
STAR CHAUTAUQUA ENTERTAINER
Pleases Nightly With Imitation Of
Children for Which She Is Famous
the Country over.

If there is a cIeverer imiJator of
children than Miss Elma B. Smith she
has not come to the attention of Rock
Island audience. Miss Smith gave the
opening half of the Rock Island chau-
tauqua program yesterday afternoon
and while she labored under the handi-
cap of intense heat. not TO mention a
few attentive flies which took an espe-
cial fancy to her just about the time
she was doing some of her most eff
fective work, she more than pleased.
Miss Smith has a wonderful control OF
her voice and is able to initiate most
anything in the line of sound produced
by the vocal organs of the genus homo
from the puny wall of the infant to the
SOnOrOus tones of the town selectman
addressing the school at the close of
the Friday afternoon exercises She is
especially effective in reproducing the
voices of children of early school age
and as for hooking an infant in arms
she is nothing short of a marvel No
youngster could do it better. Truly.
she has earned the reputation of being
the most wonderful baby-cry girl"
Crying is one of her specialties, but
she is just s strong in humor as in
pathos and she mixes the two most
effectively.
Gives School Entertainment
Most pleasing of the various num-
berS given was the Friday afternoon
school program, which has been pre-
sented TO hundreds of audiences and
has made Miss Smith famous. 1t is
the close of the week in the country
school and parents have assembled for
the exercises" The teacher rings the
Dell and the pupils file in under the
wathcful eye and adnonishing tongue
OF their preceptress. When the school
is duly seated the teacher attempts
Few words Of greeting to the patrons,
stopping frequently 10 remind Willie
TO behave, answer requests from Mary
ana Lou 10 go to the water bucket and
command Carrie to blow her nose.
flnalIy the program begins. II
takes but short stretch Of the imag
NATION to visualize it all. though Miss
smith is the sole actor. There Is
verse OF welcome by May spoken so

HEARD AFTERNOON AND EVENING
Has Heavy End of the Program on a
Swclterinc Day and AcquitS
Itself With Credit.

That musicians do not need to be
all dOlled mp TO play aCCeptably was
made apparent to a thousand or more
Rock Islanders at the chautauqua yes
terday afternoon and evening. II was
ascertained by experiment and there
fore established scientifically as fact,
as DR. Krebs would say. that a band
can play just as well, probably better,
without their blouses. especially il 1t
happens TO be 100 i'm the shade. Yes,
since science Is backing us up, we
may go even further 1t was definite
" established that one can do good
work in the band even if he hasn't a
clean shirt TO his back, and an emf
nent soloist can successfully perform
even if he has no collar, merely a
necktie twisted about where the col
lar is usually seen, his sleeves are
rolled up, he wears suspenders, and
there is q large patch of irrigated
area in the back Of said shirt
The traditions Of the concert stage
were all shot to pieces yesterday Ger
tain advanced scientists who were on
the grounds expressed conviction that
if the experiment had been carried to
its logical conclusion and their raj
ment were still further reduced, they
would have been found playing just
as well as ever when there was moth
ing left TO cover them but a few beads
of perspiration.
l. Day OF Music.
Yesterdays program was nearly all
musical Excepting during the first
hour in the afternoon the numbers
were all furnished by the DemOlay
band Of 20 pieces. This organization
performed acceptably in the last half
of the afternoon program and did even
better under more favorable weather
conditions and before a much larger
audience al night Eut in neither case
were the members called upon to wear
their blOUses. Rev George W. Wise,
platform manager, saw to that, and
then asked the crowd to back him up,
which it did, everybody taking pity
upon the men who were facing other
wise the necessity Of beating up those
kettle drums and other things or hand
ling enough of that torrid atmosphere
TO fill those big horns.
The work of the band was good
throughout and many encores were
called for, Mixed programs were Civ
en-, the variety being sufficient to
please every one who likes music.
The leader, George Marion, was a ia
vorite, his baritone solos being warm
ly received, and Johnny SHELTON, cor
netist, and George GOforth. with the
xylophone, also found exceptional ia

little. Daisy gives d temperance re-
cital so family that not word is audi
BILE and there are essays, one about the
breath by Mary and and another about
ducks by Tommie. The latter finds il
expedient to repeat the last word of
each sentence in order to get the
proper infection, which he invariably
misses the first time, and also to en-
able him to get a good start in de-
ciphering his own Chirography for the
next sentence. Jimmie attempts a
patriotic recitation and gets away to a
flying start. Later he misses connec-
lions and only discovers where he is
at after painful pause and sundry
efforts of the teacher TO coach him
without making it too apparent to the
audience.
When it's all over Brother Brown,
a prominent citizen, limps to the plat
form and delivers one of those cut and
dried addresses so familiar to us all.
He sails along, after a somewhat un-
certain and halting beginning, but just
as he begins to warm up and get

he runs out of material and makes a
