BEST ASSEMBLY IN YEARS
Great Success in Every Manner Insures Even Bet
ter Next
Few lectures have attracted more
attention ou the Chautauqua grounds
than the two given Friday evening
.and Saturday afternoon by Bishop
Robert Mclntyre, of Los Angeles.
The large audience of the afternoon
remained generally for the evening,
and with the large additions that ar
rived on the evening cars very few,
if any; S6ats were to be found in the
auditorium. The close attention that
was paid to the speak per, the man
nre in which he swayed his audience
and carried it with him, and better
than all, kept it seated till he was
through, was eloquent tribute to his
power of oratory and personal mag
netism. "The Battle of Life" was his sub
ject Friday night and he gave good
wholesome lessons for the building of
character and the sure foundation that
will insure success.
Saturday afternoon in his subject,
"The Evolution of Abraham Lin
coln," the speaker rose to heights of
eloquence never before heard in the
groves of Gladstone park. The evolu
tion of Lincoln came though three
things: his honior which started lum
in lite; his honesty, which carried
him forward, and his humanity which
consummated his life. Upon eaili
one of these traits in the character of
Lincoln, the speaker enlarged and
gave striking instances to illustrate
his points. One eloquent picture af
ter another, warm with adulation,
wreathed in merriment or dripping
with the tears of a heart-broken coon
try, the speaker brought in rapid suc
cession before his audience ,whioh for
two hours he held spellbound. One
of his moit magnifioent nights of ora
tory was the illustration of the life of
Lincoln be found when he gazed into
mirror lake in the Yosemite and saw
the sun rise six times, from above
that many mountain heights each one
of which he likened to the periods
of Lincoln's career, namely, his lone
ly childhood, the period of propam

tion for the bar, political career in
ine state, his national career, and his
death. From eaoh one he drew pic
tures which, at times, reached into
the sublime. In closing, the picture
he drew of the funeral cortege, as it
.passed out of Philadelphia between
seven miles of solid humanity, after
the remains had laid in state for two
days in Independence hall, brought
tears to many eyes in the vast audi
ence. The memcrial to Uncle Remus was
one of the finest literary efforts of the
entire course of literature. Mrs. El
len Miller closed her work in domes
tic soionoe with a lesson on "Sum
mer Drinks and Fruit Deserts."
Miss Anna Lewis Clark closed her
club institute olass with a lecture on
"Parliamentary Law and Club Amen
ities." Miss Clark's class has been
well attended throughout and the
closiug days she lectured to overflow
meetings. Fifteen members of the
Woman's Club of Aurora, not being
able to make satisfactory tram ecu
neotions, drove down to Chautauqua
to serv as hostesses at the federation
lent.
The religious classes have been par
ticularly strongt his year under Rev.
Charles A. Pliipps and Dr. B. L.
Whitman, and both drew to a very
Satisfactory conclusion.
At the W. O. T. U. a conference of
the members that were on the ground
was held at headquarter!, Mrs. Hen
rietta Brown, state president, presid
ing. It was unofficial in its nature,
but most nelpful in its results, as
much of the state work was canvassed,
ways and means discussed and nlans
for campaign work gone over.
Time was when every camper on
the ground thought it was his duty to
take time by the forelock and get out
before his neighbor, and by Saturday
night the grounds were ulmost de
serted. This year lias been exception
al in that respect. Every one seemed
to have a desire to linger on, so that

very few moved away till early this
week, and a few are contemplating
staying on for a week just for the
pleasure of camping. A subdued feel
ing of sadness aud regret pervaded
the Chautauqua grounds when the
lights went out at the close of the
last program of the season, when the
"Good Night" flashed from the field
dowu below the diamond and the last
car went rolling through the grounds
ana tne tenters realized that only i
Sunday remained of their rest and va
cation and season of study. Few
seasons, however, have closed with
such entire satisfaction and good will
as this one. From the start a feeling
of good will and harmony between
management aud patrons has existed,
consequently tilings nave gone
smoothly, and with the folding of the
tents came the determination to be
among the early returners next year.

a ladies' ball team. Considering the
fact that they were ladies, the female
aggregation put up a pretty classy ar

Tuesday afternoon while bathing
with other boys in the Willamette

Enrollment on Increase.
The freshman class entering the
UniverHity of Oregon at1 Eugene this
fall will be by far the largest in Hh
history. Every indication points to
a freshman registration of 250, and a
total enrollment of nearlv (500 stu
dents, not including the departments
of law and medicine. Last year one-
fourth of all the high school graduates
of Oregon entered the University of
Oregon, and there is every reason to
believe that an even greater percent
age will enter this fall, though the
number of graduates is nearly a half
larger than last year. Another
souroe that will help swell the num
ber very materially is the large num
ber of eastern people ooming into the
state. The registrar's office receives
many letters each week asking if
oredits from eastern high schools will
be accepted. The demand for cata
logues has been unprecedented, and
unless all signs foil next year's en
rollment will be a record breaker.
