Congressman Landis TonigKt and Hob 1
toa Tomorrow.
Congressman Landis who will be
the orator at the Chautauqua this ev-
ening arrived from Hobart today
where ? gave his lecture yesterday.
His theme will be the "Message of
an Optimist" and it is pronounced a
great lecture. Mr Amsbary who al-
so returned from Hobart heard Mr.
Landis and is enthusiastic over him.
"He is fine and his .lecture should be
heard by everyone" said he.
The Evans Male Quartette which
was on the program yesterday was
delayed five hours by washouts and
did not arrive until 11:30 last night.
They made a great hit this afternoon
and wilt give a concert as a prelude
) the evening's session.
Tomorrow evening an immense
crowd is expected at the hall to hear
Capt. Hobson in his superb lecture
on his exepriences in the navy. The
hero of the Merrimae has developed
Into a star on the lecture platform and
he receives the highest praise where-
ever he speaks.
RENO'S TWO FINE PROGRAMS
Two more great crowds attended
Chautauqua yesterday afternoon and
last night and were deligthed with Ed-
ward Reno the magician and the
splendid program he gave them. It
was an attraction easily worth a dol-
lar. The Evans Male quartette were
also on the program but they failed
to reach the city in time to take nart
Mr. Ktno's program was so good how-
ver that their absence did not cause
much dissatisfaction with the audi-
ence. '
The crowd yesterday afternoon was
composed mostly of ladies and child-
ren and Mr. Reno's program was prr-

Pred especially for them. He is cer-
tainly a master of his art. One of his
best tricks and one which delighted
the children immensely was the one
.'one with animals birds etc making
them appear before their very
eyes in impossible places. All kinds
of articles appeared and disappeared
with such rapidity that the eye could
not keep up with the manipulations of
the wizard.
Mr. Reno was assited in his pro-
gram by Mr. Humiston the jolly fat
man as the boys called him. He play-
ed on musical glasses musical gloves
and the xylophone and banjo and was
was forced to do it over again before
the au lience would let him go. He
came back later in impersonations of
different characters both white and
black face making up in front of the
audience.
Messrs Reno and Humiston gave
their program !vi the evening to anoth-
er crowd that almost filled the hall.
Some changes were madfl in the wiz-
ard's tricks a number being introduc-
ed that were not in the program of the
afternoon. There was not a dull min-
ute during the entire two hours. Mr.
Reno and Mr. Humiston are a pair
of entertainers who are hard to beat.
It had been arranged with "Miss La
Quay for her to give one or two violin
selections during the venlng but the
damp weather caused several strings
on her instrument to break aijd much
to the regret of the audience she was
unable to appear.

ship before sometime next week.
The report is current that E. 0.

for the democratic nomination in the

the place he
described as the location of the head-
j garters of the Western Federation
of Minetrs. Orchard went into the
building and soon returned with an-
other man who got into the buggy
and iove off with Pttibone. Seahorn
said he would know this other man
and wr.s asked to look around and see
if he could see him in the court room.
The negro looked over to the de-
fense side and pointed his finger at
Haywood. "Yes sir that's the man"
he said. There was a pause and the
silence was broken only by a stir
among the spectators. It was the
first direct conection of Haywood
with Orchard.
