but these last three dayts are to be
"filled with morsels of . real richness.
Today saw a new galaxy of stars on
the Chautauqua boards for the first
time, as the' principals of last week
have left for other places. Knowing
that nothing but high-class attrac-1
tions are slated, a large crowd is ex
pected tonight when Edward Brush,
the magician, gives his wonders of
mysteryland. The other classes of the
morning are progressing very satis
factorily and word3 of praise are
' heard coming to the management for
the skill and teaching powers of the
leaders In each of the departments.
Rev. Redfern, the Boise student of
, the Bible, will make his concluding
address of a series very Instructive
discourses tomorrow, he being called
away one day before the close. His
address yesterday afternoon was a
strong feature.'

thinking lecturer who has made a life
study of his subject and who comes
not as untried man, but as one who
has made good In every date that .he
has filled. The Grande Ronde Chau

Adams to the public, feels that splen
did assurance of being able to intro
duce a man whose ability is of the
best, whose success has been founded
purely on his merit, and who will give
everyone something to think of that
will be of lasting benefit.
"Mr. Adams will talk on two sub
jects during the assembly. His
"Grapes of Gold" has received the
highest praise from the press that It
is possible to give to a lecturer, end
when he delivers, : "The House of
Changing Dimensions" all will agree
that he will have reached the acme of
human intelligence and enlighten
ment in a story set to words that are
easily understood. His lecture bears a

It Is expected that Chancellor J. H.

will be removed from his office by the
Methodist College of bishops, and
nineteen members of the board of
trustees of the University will be !
ejected from their trusteeship for in
subordination and defiance of the
church.
A lawsuit will be brought In the
federal court, to enforce the rights of
ownership and control of the proper

to free the present trustees elected at
the recent general conference at Ashe
ville, N. C. This is the situation In the
controversy that has raged around the
university for the past five years.
Bishop Hendrix is the president of
the Board of Trustees. At ..the recent
general conference the church went
