The guests have recently formed a club for social enjoyment and will hold fortnightly meetings, of which this evening's is the first. Numbers of small parties are given each evening at the Chautauqua and many guests from out of town are being entertained by the campers. The "social sid" of the Chautauqua community is a marked one, and adds greatly to the enjoyment of the affair. This social side is much fnore marked this year than it was last. Mrs. George Sudhoff entertained at her home in South Eleventh street last evening a company of friends in honor of Mesdames Grottendick and Hiber, of Hamilton, O., formerly of this citjr, who are the guests of Mrs. Sudhoff. The house was decorated in a very pretty manner with flowers tastefully arranged, which gave a handsome effect. The evening was very pleasantly spent in a social way by the guests. A light luncheon was served at the close of the evening. Several other entertainmets have been a ranged for Mrs. Grottendick. "Mrs. Dempsy was the hostess this afternoon for the weekly card party given in the K. C. club rooms. Several tables of progressive euchre were played, and after the games prizes were given.

The wedding was a very quiet one, the ceremony being performed by Rev. Malott in the presence of a very few Telatives and intimate friends. The home was prettily decorated with roses and banks of palms, and presented a fine appearance. Mr. La Rue is remembered by many friends in this city and vicinity. ..

A farewell party Avill be given Monday afternoon for Miss Westerman, of Marion, who leave that city next week for Warren, Ohio, where she will be married to Mr. Walter Shields, formerly of this city. The farewell party will be given by Mrs. Beshor and Miss Mary Stephenson. There is quite a god deal of local interest in the Westerman-Shields wedding, which takes place October 12, on account of the grooms former residence in Richmond. He is well known here. . The third annual Hoover reunion was neld m the grove near White Branch Church this week, and was attended by over three hundred members of the Hoover families, there being several Hoovers present from this city. A short program was rendered in the forenoon and was followed by a large dinner, served in picnic style. In the afternoon a pro gram of recitations and speeches was made. The day was a most delightful one. The Iundianapolis News of last evening contained the following account of a weddinsr that is of local interest to many: Mrs. Grace Prier Snter, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Prier, and Eugene G. Vestal, of Los Angeles, Cal.. were maried today at 1 o'clock at the home of the bride's parents, 3541 North Meridian street. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Frank O. Beck, of the Mapleton M.

Bayer, Hubert Suavely, Herbert Weisbrod, Charles Ward, Gus Hafner and Herbert Mever. (Continued From First Page.) placed beyond all filled, with many standing, the proportions of this meeting will be realized. Father Vaughan, sustained the reputation made here last year as a brilliant orator and a powerful platform speaker, the force of his personality, his compelling magnetism, his mere overwhelming presence immediately reducing his hearers to a state of fascination aside from the theme of his discourse. Father Vaughan 's Shakespearian lecture last year, which appealed to the more purely intellectual, had scarcely prepared last night's audience for his attitude on matters of social import, and his pronouncements on the various aspects of society at large, especially from the standpoint of the keen observer of present conditions existent in this country were roundly applauded. Father Vaughan stated himself something of a social physicianto open the festering wounds of society. People are blinded by the brilliant light of their own selfishness, egotism, ambition, appetites. They awake too late to the danger resultant from conditions arising from the existence of these qualities in society in the ensemble, conditions wluch might have been avoided or at least ameliorated by wise administration and early recognition of their gravity. Father Vaughan stated that vice, in its various forms, is eating out the heart of the nation. That there exists in this country a state of affairs known no where else in the world. That our very boasted institutions which are supposed to make for freedom of action, liberty of choice and the elevation of the social body in the aggregate, are. detrimental to right living and the proper adjustment of the forces of society. The evil of intemperance is blighting the nation. "Rum" is the foremost curse of the day. The drink habit is the viper which is eating at the vitals of the nation. We spend $300,000,000 yearly to counteract the results of this vice and , its concomitants, to hold it in check. Instead Father Vaughan elo quently urged that the energy, the patriotism and the millions of the cit izens of the country should be spent in Avipinsr out the evil. ne saloon. the retail sale of liquor," said the speaker, "is the incubator of crim inals." The brothel is to be found over the saloon, the gambling hell in its rear. No matter what form of vice is sought or found it is always in close conjunction with the liquor traffic. The great evil of intemper ance is the foremost curse of our national life. The second, paradoxical as it may seem, is, according to Father Vaughan's lecture, our system of over, or false, education. Father Vaughan emphasized the fact that he was not to be misunderstood in- this, that he was not directing his remarks against any particular set of schools, but against the modern system of education as fostered and protected by the State. It included secular as well as public schools. The fault lies in preparing every one alike to meet differing conditions. The Greek ideal was a perfect minds in a perfect body, with a consequent scorn of phvsical labor. The work was done by slaves. The fall of the nation was but a matter of time. The R6mans exalted the vocation of arms. Every man must be a soldier. The average Roman disdained work. Such a state of society soon was bound to disclose its rotten core. This country turns all classes. eVery strata, into one crucible, and presumably expects a uniform resultant. It is an impossible outcome. What we want is technical, not classical education. Our bane is our ideal of higher education for all. But five

schools ever get to the higher institutions of learning- The average high school graduate is a pitiable object. He considers himself too highly educated to engage in manual labor, to begin at the bottom of the ladder. Many drift to the cities to become the flotsam of society and here is illustrated the anomalous social condition resultant from our false system of education. The dregs of society are

contantly reinforced from the educat ed classes, so-called. The foundation of the social fabric is the farmer, the laborer. Father Vaughan paid an eloquent tribute to these two stable forces, and lashed with scornful invective that false ideal which exalted other conditions. Some are born to labor and to serve. The fault lies in pouring super refined oil into lamps intended to consume kerosine. All this is the "Light That Failed." Father Vaughan's address was of great eloquence and replete with telling illustrations, and was regarded by the audience, testified to by their frequent applause, as abounding in truth and logic. It was one of the most powerful temperance lectures, in one of its aspects, ever heard in this city. Evening Concert. The closing concert of the Ladies' Concert company was, as has been invariably the case, delightfully given, both the quartette and the trio num-bei-s meeting with an appreciative reception. The decided feature of this performance, however, was the sole of Miss Christine Levin, who has not hiterto been heard except in ensemble. Miss Levin possesses a beautiful contralto, of a remarkable lower register, and of rich, colorful, tonal quality, and is a successful concert and oratorio singer. She has accepted a very complimentary engagement for a concert tour during the coming season. It is to be hoped she may be heard again in this city soon, her reportoire including compositions by Handel, Mendelsshon, Saint Saens, Dvorak, and many other celebrated composers. Song Service. An immense audience joined in "Everybody's Song Service," those wishing to hear Father Vaughan having arrived early in order to get good seats, so that the great audience which greeted Father Vaughan was practically the same that took part in this service. A number of patriotic songs were sung with fervor and spirit, the members of the concert company leading. These are among the omst enjoyable occasions of the present Chautauqua sessions and never missed by tht frequenters of these entertainments. Mrs. Drake's Last Appearance. Mrs. Drake appeared for the last time in a dramatic presentation of "The Uncle" and her refined art has not been more in evidence than in the delineation of the character created for and made famous by Sir Henry Irving. It was one of the most ambitious numbers given by Mrs. Drake and with such success that she was caned out again. Mrs. Drake s appearances have given great pleasure to the Chautauqua audiences and there is genuine and uninversal regret over her departure. If it were put to a vote, Mr. James Speed, whose nature studies have delighted audiences here both this year and last, would be put down as the most popular person on the Chautauqua grounds, for in addition to Mr. Speed's convincing and agreeable way of presenting his lectures and talks on nature an dart, he is possessed of a highly attractive personality. Mr. Speed has only been in the lecture field for four years, but in that time has gained a wide reputationn in his chosen department and is one of the best known lecturers and authorities ; in. the country. F or a number, of years Mr. Speed has contributed articles of this character to leading papers and periodicals and is the author of a series of articles which were used for a long time by a syndicate of papers including the Hartford (Conn.) Times, Washington Star, Philadelphia Times, Pittsburg Dispatch, Cleveland Plaindealer, Cincinnati Commercial Tribune, Portland, Oregonian, Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Chicago Tribune, Louisville Post, Nashville American, Indianapolis News and the Mineapolis Journal, these article being entitled, "Lights and Shadows in the World of Animals, Insects and Feathered Things." Mr. Speed has devoted his whole life to observation, not books, and consequently covers a wider field than almost any other lecturer on the subject. Mr. Speed is a Kentuckian, with his home in Louisville, although he is going from Richmond to Bloomington, 111., to take up a permanent residence and will hereafter be associated with Mr. Shaw in Chautauqua work. He is a member of that charming coterie of southern writers living in Louisville which includes Mrs. Alice Hogan Rice, author of the famous ' ' Mrs. Wiggs ; ' ' Madison Cawein, one of the best known con temporaneous poets who has had twentr-one volumes t published ; "George Madden Martin," the nom

A day or so ago Mr. Shaw made -i : l t sHmit? worous aim pouueu remarKs concerning the disturbances made by the children which seriously interferred with, the pleasure and comfort of the audiences, and seriously distracted those on the platform. At the time the ladies gave their sacred concert Sunday night, they were so annoyed by the whispering, giggling and noise that they stated it was impossible for them to do themselves jusItice. and Mr. Cook's eveninjr enter tainment was rendered ineffective at places by the uproarious laughter of little boys seated prominently near the front. A performer dreads nothing so much as a front row of children unless his entertainment is given strictly for them, when, of course, he is delighted with an appreciative front row as well as an entire audience of little people, but iu Mr. Cook's instance, one of his cleverest and most subtle characterisations that of the blase and ennuied Englishman and his pessimistic philosophy, was rendered almost innocuous by the violpnt. lniio-litpr of somp ltttlo twtv who thought Mr. Cook was being fun.because he made such queer faces. iie delicious humor of the presentation was spoiled. Father Vaughan had to ask a child to cease talking so loud last night and altogether Mr. Shaw's remarks were regarded as highly apropos. Children are charming but there are times when they should be seen, not heard. The Ladies' Aid Society of East Main street Friends' church has one of the most comfortable tents on the grounds. Those staying here are Mrs. Jordan, Mrs. Bond, Mrs. Jamison, Mrs. Roberts, Miss Belle Roberts, Miss Maggie Davis, Mrs. Burke, Mrs. Marmon, Mrs. Henley and several others. Mrs. Bessie' Guion Drake is an artist of talent and ability as well as a musician and a dramatic reader. She works in several different mediums including oil, watercolor and pastel and was for over a year a pupil of J. Ross Bryson, the well knownn Chicago painter.
