ENGLISH LIBERAL, COMING

"Europe After The War" was today announced as the topic upon which Francis Neilson, former member of the House of Commons and a noted English liberal, is to discourse Thursday evening at the First Baptist church in Hammond as rart of the commencement program for the graduation of seventy-one seniors of the high school. Laborer, actor, journalist, dramatist, novelist, lecturer, politician, and traveler Neilson has had a most interesting career. Ke knows America, having worked in this country at various forms of labor in many states from 1S'5 to 1S37. His experiences here were full oT hardship and it was his close contact with poverty and unemployment which made him turn to use his early studies. He was a dramatist when he was twenty-five years of age. writing the libretto of "Frince Ananias," which Victor Herbert set to music. He was in the cast of "Secret Service" , with William Gillette. Neilson was stage director for Charles Frohman at the Duke of York's

Theater in London. He wrote novels, worked with Seidl, the composer, and became interested in politicls. "Madame Bohemia." "Manabozo." "The Bath Road," "The Crucible." "A Butterfly On the Wheel" and "A Strong Man's House" are pome of the works of which he is the author. In 1900 he was assigned to re-open the Royal Opera House in London, an ancient insr?-ution of which the Crown was the patron. In the meantime he set to work in the sphere of politics, became the most famous platform speaker in England with the exception Yf Lloyd George, and entered the House of Commons in 1310. He was twice returned to that body where he was a leader of th liberals. It has been said of him Tiat he has a genius for organization, a most unusual personal ity, a power as a speaker, and a knowledge and eloquence given to few men. Superintendent of . Schools McPaniel believes he has been fortunate in securing Franci3 Neilson to deliver the commencement addres and expects the church will be filled to overflowing.
