From Tuesday's Daily Star and Wave. 1 Mrs. S.- A. Buck, wife of the Captain of the steamer Queen City, tin- ' jiarty tinhing boat operating from ' Scbellenger's Landing, was robbed ' more than a hundred dollars in Phila- 1 delpbia. Sunday. ■ Mrs. Buck is a very able assistant to ' her husband, who daily carries large 1 numboM^'of fishermen to the bank- . ' She makes daily trips to Philadelphia ' in the afternoon and meets the excurs- 1 ionists at the Market and Chestnut 1 streets ferries. After disposing of ber 1 tickets she boards tbe train and aceom- ' I is nil-- the fishermen to this re-sort. 1 a Sunday, after selling a large number 1 of tickets, she went to her hotel, where 1 she remained some time for rest. She ( placed her pocket-book containing over ' a hundred dollars in bills and silver, on ' tlie bun-ail while "she ate her dinner. 1 When she returned she found her pock-et-book had been la-rvacked the money i missing, but a commutation ticket on | the Rending railroad was 1. ft untouch- } cel.

ANNEX AND .•Tfa.if.j t MOTHERS' HOME 1 / s OLD TAVERN PURCHASED BY SEASIDE HOME ASSOCIATION J NOW REFUGE FOR MOTHERS AND " CHILDREN FROM CONGESTED f SECTION OF CITY. il r Tuesday's Daily Star and Wave. " In our first story of the Home -we purposely withheld the names of the " leading spirits and untiring officials, who, after many years of service ^ their zeal has been undiminished . Though quite a number of these veteran " workers during these thirty-five years all grow-n quite aged, yet, without a single exception, all are still in | the active work. But a few of the number, as has been remarked, have ^ b<-en called away to their heavenly ^ home. They were, however, among the ^ choicest Spirits, scf -denying and liberal ^ souls who chose the service and loved ^ it, as their life work, who one by one, . fell by the wayside with visions of far 1 , greater possibilities of these heaven- • charities for the poor, suffering" families in the overcrowded comnfunities in our cities. j Of these special mention is to be ' made of Mrs. Daniel D. Haddock, first president of the Presbyterian Sea-Side Association, elected in 1878 so continued to serve for 21 years until ' death in 1801. Mrs. Haddock was ' a lady possessed of a beautiful character and large means, having enlisted energies in charitable work. Early life, she was regarded as tbe leading spirit of tbe Association. We shall more to add of ber life and noble deeds in connection with our story of 1 tbe Haddock Memorial. Mrs. William J. Pollock, another of the pioneer ladies in the very active j management and influence in this good ( work, died three years ago. The mem- < 1 ory of her earnest labors of love and | ■ cheerful christian spirit are cherished | • by all who knew her. 1 , Too much gratitude cannot be ex- I > pressed for the great and untiring ser- 1 - vices rendered by Mrs. Beard, though 1 • her death occurred some 15 years ago. 1 "■ fevered for her fine christian character . and aggressive spirit, her memory is < i the more precious out of a debt of 1 1 gratitude for having mainly, 1 : by her indefatigable efforts raised tbe 1 1 money for tbe acquisition of tbe Sea- , Mrs. Caroline E. Honey, another of ■ I the Veteran managers, whose name is . revered for her great love and zeal, ' always manifested in behalf of the suffering ^f«ir. Her interest was intense and her activity equal to it. » Last year the unexpected death of ® Mrs. William Hill occurred. The beloved managing director, after a ^ short illness bid her family farewell j with the precious words — "I want to j be with Jesus." Her interest was most y absorbing in everything in connection II with her work and duties. " At the most earnest request of the Directors, Miss Elizabeth C. Hill finally consented to - take her mother's place, but her Heavenly Father wanted her also, for higber service, and called her home. The loss of mother and da ugh - [ ter was felt to be a very great and su-i one. indeed, to ihe Director* and their work. If any other managers have died we ■ have not their names, but we must , not fail to record the very recent death '• of MFs. John J. Orr, though not a ' manager, was a faithful auxiliary mem- ^ ber who gave most valued service dur- ® ing 1 the Summer. The Sea-Side Annex building was an j old tavern with a fine large front lot j immediately adjoining the Sea-Side I Home — and not only a great eve-sore I D and annoyance, but a much needed prop- j erty in tbe development and enlarge- . c ment of the work of the Home. And • it would be interesting, if we had space, to enumerate the little and varied means used to improve and bring this building to its present condition, to show the faith of these ladies in the a future. When they contracted for its I purchase they were without money in the treasury and as an instance one ot tbe most constantly active and industrious veteran managers came forward with $500 from the sale of aprons alone and made the first payment. I I, regret by the request of this busy _ worker, I can not here mention her name. Very soon afterward. Mrs. Haddock kindly substituted $500 and the above -was transferred to tbe credit of the Home. _ Then began the. urgent and very suc- ! ccssful efforts of Mrs. Beard as befcire stated, in connection with smaller and <j larger subscriptions from many indivig duals, churches, etc. During tbe present year and in preparation for this summer's guests, under ~ the very efficient superintendence of Mr. William R. Kirtg, great improvement has been made to the Annex. Mr. King is- a gentleman of excellent and refined ' taste, and tbe painting within and without makes a splendid

f appearance. It should be understood that tbe which will accommodate 250 persons arc but rooming-sleeping apartments. AH meals arc taken in tbe Sea-Side Home. While the Sea-Side Home is a Presorganization it is not denomi- < national in iU work and privileges. All < the protestant churches have sent their . I people from the heat of the city, here, iThe Country Week Association, ohmposed off all denominations send large 1 numbers.

In the latter part of April, this a special Chautauqua train left with Charleston, S. C.. as its destination. This train, carrying more than eighty people, most of them musicians and lecturers, stopped en route at several towns and cities in which were scheduled to pitch their tents later. At all such stops and in some places thous- . ands of people,' gathered at the stations. At Chattanooga, Tenn., and several | 1 other points, tbe local people arranged ' for autos to be in readiness, on tbe ar- , rival of the train, and carried the en- - tire party for a ride about the city. At Charleston the same party was taken- for a launch trip past Fort Sumter. f-At Earlington. Ky., a year ago the , public Schools were dismissed that the children might meet the train. The "newspapers in Chautauqua . towns, also, in the main, show a very j friendly attitude, not infrequently get- . ting out special Chautauqua editions. "The Talent." ^ The recent marvelous development of I this, movement ha * opened a large field of opportunity to ' talent.' especially to ' musicians. The salaries of musicians on the Chautauqnas are equal to that ordinarily paid to theatrical talent, aside from the stars. The minimum ' is said to he thirty dollars a week and railroad expenses, while a large pro- • portion receive a much higher salary. Among the lecturers. Mr. Bryan rer reives the first *258 and one-half of all " the single admissions over $580. Vice J President Marshall'- f-e is $3n0. Sena - 1 tor LnFollett. al-o receives $300 per I lecture. Lecturers w ho are engaged bv L' 1 the year receive from SiOlKI to V 15. 000 j for both Lyceum ami ( liautaqqua work, 1 !the exact amount depending upon their L fame and drawing power. It is estimated that nearly Slt.OOO.fKHi is an- ' nually spent for Lyceum and Chaiituuqua patent . 1 j Approximately 1200 men are annu1 j ally employed at Chautauqua stiper- ? intaidents. electricians, property men * bead ushers, and ticket-takers through- ' " out The entire country Nearly u00 are J "| employed, as advance men and more! 1 than IfiOO as talent". The college boys ; '• who comprise the tent crews receive 1 I from seventeen to twenty dollars a : " week, tlieir railroad fan-, and nightly 9 lodging. * -The following, in addition to those s already mentioned, is a partial list of II well-known Chautauqua lecturers who e have appeared widely during the last " three or four years.

As Mr. Bryan sava: "The Chautauqua affords one of the best opportunities now pre- *- sented a public speaker for the discussion of questions of interest to tbe people. The audience is a select one and always composed of the thoughtful dement of the community, and, as they pay admission, they stay to hear. I believe that a considerable part of the progress that is now being made along the line of moral and politicaTTeform is traceable to the influence of tbe Chautauqua . " Speaker Champ Clark says that the Chautauqua has been a powerful force in directing the political thought of the country ank that tbe Chautauqua lecturers witl^whom he has been associated constitute as fine a group of men and women as can be found among the splendid citizenship of America. Ia many places a Chautauqua leaves ' definite effects upon the community life. It comes into a town or city with an ideal and before it leaves this ideal is quite apt to be impressed on the minds of many people. The Chautauqua stands for democracy and eduea- . tion. It brings new vision and inspiration. People of all classes and degrees of education are brought together. It is a feeder for our colleges and uni- ■ versities. The president of a .largo technical school is quoted as having ■ said that 10 per cent, cf the students in the institution over which he pre^ ( sides owe their presence to Chautauqua influence. A talk on civic beauty or ( sanitation by an expert from the Chautauqua platform often results in bring-. \ ing these matters to local attention for ; the first time. i At Leecbburg, Pa., during the past ^ winter a lad in coasting met with an ( accident which rendered bim unconscious and apparently dead. A playmate went to his assistance and in I j time brought him back to consclonsI ness. When asked how he knew what to do. the boy who had rendered the assistance replied that he did jnst what the scoutmaster at the Chautauqua last summer had taught him during the Boy Scout drills. J Also to many people of meager elre cumstances who seldom get far from home, the five. six. or seven -dav Chaut tauqiia comes as an annual vacation — REGISTERED 70 YEARS AGO I LEWIS T.
