Round Table Club’s Lyceum [EQUAL A BOOSTER
Course for the Coming Year SUFFRAGE MEETING!
The ladies of the Round Table Club
have contracted " ith the Slayton Ly-
ceum Bureau for another lyceum
course for Chandler for the coming
fall and winter, and it is one which
promises to be even more popular
than that presented the past season,
it has tlie advantage of presenting
a variety of attractions, each repre-
senting the very best of its kind. The
several numbers will be different from
those presented last year, but the
committee having the matter in
charge is satisfied after several
weeks’ investigation, that the selec-
tions made will prove very satisfac-
tory and will tend to still further
popularize these entertainments. The
dates have not been definitely deter-
mined as yet, but the order in which
the entertainments will appear is
specified.
The first entertainment will be
Slayton’s Jubilee Singers, probably
the greatest company of colored musi-
cal artists in America. They have
given over 4.000 concerts, and the
company is the only colored organi-
zation that has appeared in the larger
lecture courses of the countrv. They
have played more return dates than
any musical organization in I he coun-
try, and are recognized as the no
and only colored attraction. They
give a varied program, including the
old-time jubilees, as well as the up-to-
date numbers, and during the coming
season they will be stronger and bet-
ter than they have ever been. The
Jubilee Singers will appear some time
in October.
In November there will be a lecture
from one of the most useful and most
interesting men in America—not a
politician or statesman or a student
of science and art, but a man who has
studied boys and how to help them
w'th hope and with noble ideals—
Judge Willis Brown, of the juvenile
court of Salt Lake City. He was
called from Chicago to Utah to write
a juvenile court law for that state,
and. when he had done this, he was
asked to remain and preside over the
court in Salt Lake City. This is
probably the only juvenile court in the
country entirely removed from crim-
inal proceedure and politics and no*
being a division of an adult court.
His success as a leader and teaches
rid reformer among boys has beep
almost without a parallel, and his
lecture is sure to be full of interest
wherever there are boys. It will not
be dry and tiresome, for Judge Brown
is an orator and his discourse if
enlivened with many bright and witty
things.
In December, Cutter and Mack will
present their delightful entertainment
Bartlett Cutter, the signing humorist
of Boston, is an entertainer who if
absolutely unique in his particulai
field. His work, ranging from grave
to gay—from patriotic and soul-stir
ring sentiments to those of side-split
ting comicality; from tender touches
of pathos to boisterous jollity—is al
ways most effective and never fails
to carry the entire audience. Mr
Mack is not entirely new’ to the plat
form, though he is now giving his
entire time to it as a profession. For
several years he has been a popular
success for part of each season. His
drawings range from the humorous
cartoon to beautiful pictures in colors,
and he is an artist in clay modeling.
In February we will have Lima B.
Smith and her company. Miss Smith
is probably the greatest imitator of
children, birds, and animals now be-
fore the public. Her imitations and
interpretations are so life-like that
they are always the talk of the town
for days after her departure. Her
work is hard to describe, and those
who have heard her declare that she
must he seen and heard to be thor
oughly appreciated. In her sixth con-
secutive season she will have the sup-
port of the same excellent company
that has toured the country with her
during the past season, consisting of:
Rita Rich, giving folk-songs of all na
tions in costume; Waldemar von
Geltch, a young violinist of excep-
tional ability; William Rummel, a
brilliant young pianist.
Sylvester A. Long will also be here
in February in one of his popular ”en-
tertainment lectures”—the term used
to distinguish the lectures that meet
the demands of the hour by combin-
ing entertainment and recreation with
instruction and inspiration. They
are masterpieces in the art of illustra-
tion and are worth while and satisfy
the most critical. Mr. Long is brim-
ful of new ideas; has a distinct mes
sage in every lecture and a most de-
lightful way of presenting these ideas
to the public.
We believe that such a lyceum
course as this is worthy of the encour
agement and patronage of every citi-
zen of Chandler and vicinity, and we
sincerely hope that the committee will
meet with a ready response when it
enters upon its canvass ror the sale <■'
season tickets for the course.

Mrs. Borrmann Wells, of Eng-
land, who has been active in the
suffrage movement in New York,
spent some time in National
Headquarters recently. Mrs.
Wells declared that it was one
of the most beautiful workshops
she had ever seen and that th
grass in the park surrounding it
was the first she has seen in
America which seemed green
like the grass of England.
Mrs. Borrmann-Wells ad-
dressed the Politicl Equality
Club of Warren, the largest in
the state. She said that for
fifty years the people of Eng-
land had, in a very lady-like way
tried to secure the ballot and
had made little progress. Two
years ago, a group of women,
headed b.y Mrs. Pankurst, saw
that if English women were to be
enfranchised, they must. be en-
franchised exactly as men had
been. Consequently they would
have to make their demands long
and loud and would have to do
things that were disagreeable |
and humiliating in order to make
the Government listen to them.
The women of England have ful-
filled every requirement for vot-
ing. The only thing they have
not done is to resort for violence.
The last men who were enfrach-
ised burned buildings, destroyed
property and came near to des-
troying life. The women of the
Social and Progressive Union of
England hope that they will not
have to resort to any violence.
Pursuant to call the people of |
Chandler representing every
iine of trade and labor met at the
Egbert building last Friday
night. More than half of the
male population of the City and
several ladies were present.
Toasts were responded ti by
J. J. Davis, R. H. Galyen, M. D.
J. F. Collar, Jacob Amberg, J.B.
Pomeroy, H. C. Brunt.
Owen, G. A. Smith, Judge
Wagoner, J. A. McLaughlin, and
H. B. Gilstrap. G. A. Neeley
acted as toastmaster and did the
honors in his usual diplomatic
manner.
A lunch consisting of sand-
wiches, pickles, fruit and coffee
was served.
The Constitution and bylaws
were adopted and permanent
organization affected.

BANK LAW
The platform of the Illinois
Democrat State Convention has
one plank whichreads as follows:
“We favor the enactment into
law in the state of Illinois and by
the congress of the United
States of the democratic idea for
the protection of depositors in
all banks by a law similar to the
one enforced in the great demo
cr itic state < f Oklahoma, where-
by the depositor is insured
against the lossof his deposit by
failure of the bank or otherwise.
We believe that the widow’s
mite and the small depositors’
savings as well as the bank ac-
counts of the more affluent shall
not be lost by man’s dishonesty
or the uncertainty of business
enterprises.
“We recommend that a plank
be inserted in the national plat-
form asking congress to enact a
statue prohibiting the transpor-
tation of the products of convict
labor from one state of the union
into another, and hereby instruct
our delegates to the national con-
vention to use their influence to
that end.
“Recognizing the broad states-
manship, matchless eloquence
and untiring efforts of our great
leader, William J. Bryan, in the
cause of humanity, we, the dem-
ocrats of Illinois, honoring a
native son and taking pride in
his distinguished leadership, in-
struct the delegates to the na-
tional convention of our party at
Denver from this state to sun-
port his candidacy for the nomi-
nation for the presidency and to
use all honorable means in his
behalf. We further instruct the
Illinois delegation to the Denver
convention to act as a unit on all
propositions.”
