RECIPROCITY SPEECH IXSTIKJC
i ! TlYE LAST SIGHT.
Aviator Walsh and Others Help Sake
a Delightful Program. ' ,
Reciprocity was explained In a way
by Walter M. Plerece last night at the
Chautauqua grounds that makes that
bewildering Issue as clear as many
ora'org could provide In a whole day's
speech Mr. Pierce did It In a few
minutes;' then too, he painted the
character of Robert M. La Follette,
the "lonely man of the senate" from
Wisconsin, In extolling picture, and
under It Inscribed the caption, "The
greatest man of the nation, the most
conscious politician in the nation, and
the most capable man in the nation."
That from an ardent democrat. The
La Follette phase of . the lecture was
an ' outwrowth of the description
reciprocity and tariff questions.
When he had finished, the audience
knew more about tariff from a non
politlcan standpoint than it ever knew.
Mr. Pierce lived up to his old time ros
trum reputation.
Aviator C. F. Walsh talked aviation
interestingly though briefly, Miss Na
oma Williams rendered a reading, and
Miss Young sang a solo all to the de
light of the audience.
The llfu of De Witt Miller was real
ly entertaining.
forced by thousands of . visitors from
many parts of the island, were ex
tremely cordial In their welcome.. The
grand standi erected In various places
were crowded with cheering specta
tors, while the sidewalks were packed
by a multitude of people. ,
Tomorrow morning the king and
queen will attend service in St. Pat
rick's cathedral." Afterwaid they, will
visit several of the hospitals and oth
er public institutions of the city.

OSLY APPEARANCE OCCURS THIS

Impersonator and iSiader Will Enter
tain at Chautaaqua i
Charles Dickens will be - brought
back from English history and his
classical characters paraded on the
Chautauqua platform tonight , , when
William Sterling Battis, the. greatest
Dickens impersonator on the lecture
platform today, appears here in his
extremely Interesting program. Mr,
Battis arrived thl8 morning from the
east where a continual string of com
pliments are being poured out for the
nature of his work. .
Who has not read Dickens, and who
Is not more or leBs familiar with the
great characters he created T Yet we
will venture the guess -that the most
well-versed Dickens student does not
begin to know these same characters
as Battis knows them and will picture
them tonight by costume. He will ap
pear in the true costumes of the
Dickens characters and works through
the entire program on the stage, mak
ing the changes in view of the audi
ence. ' V , .
Aa said before, Mr. Battis Is held by
many to be the top notch number on
the program, and as he Is here but
one night, it behoove 8 the public to
hear him. The . program . does not
start until 8:30 o'clock, hence there
will be plenty of time for the business
men to reach the park.
; Joseph Chamberlain Is 75.
London, Jury 8. Joseph Chamber
lain, who a few years ago' was the
most conspicuous man In British po
litical life, celebrated his 75th birth
day anniversary today,., having been
born July 8, 1836. In honor of the
occasion meetings" were held through
out the country by the various branch
federations of the Tariff Reform as
sociation. At his. home in Binning
ham Mr. Chamberlain received a ver
ltable flood of congratulatory messag
a from all parts of the empire. . HI
home city was profusely decorated in
honor of the occasion and a great I
nnhHi demonstration was held. A1-!
though Mr. Chamberlain's health has
shown some sign of Improvement the
past year It Is not believed he will
ever been In condition to again take
an active interest In public affairs.

Aviator Walsh this afternoon failed1 to stay inthe air
but an interval, when,. as he explained if, a current of air
that he struck seemed to press his machine downward
and he could no nuvke it climb higher. He was not injured
but the machine is damaged to some extent. V
While a crowd of several hundred .people held their
breath the aviator drew his machine from its corner in the
ball park this afternoon and the crowd pushed back to
give it plenty of room. : : , j ' . ;
Touching the park that started the engine there was "a

smoke in the rear of the machine. Then tne bi-plane start

ground very rapidly. Suddenly it took the air and ros"

Then a short twist in the machine indicated that things
were not going right and in an instant it sank to the
ground. Walsh was thrown from the bi-plane, according
to those who were close by, but he is not injured..
Indication are that there is sufficient damage to the air
ship to prevent flights tomorrow, although this statement
has not been verified by those in charge of the-macliine.
There was a feeling of general regret among the crowd
as nearly; all of them hastened across the prairie to the
Price orchard where Walsh
