CHAPTER XVI

A NEW LEAF IN LUKE'S GOSPEL (1889-1892)

THE Assembly of 1889 opened on July 3d and continued fifty-five days, to
August 26th. Several new buildings had arisen since the last session.
One was the Anne M. Kellogg Memorial Hall, built by Mr. James H. Kellogg
of Rochester, New York, in honor of his mother. In it were rooms for
kindergarten, clay modeling, china painting, and a meeting place for the
Chautauqua W. C. T. U. It stood originally on the site of the present
Colonnade Building, the business block, and was moved to its present
location to make room for that building. Mr. Kellogg was an active
worker in the Sunday School movement and from the beginning a regular
visitor at Chautauqua. Another building of this year was the one
formerly known as the Administration Office, on Clark Avenue in front of
the book-store and the old Museum, now the Information Bureau and the
School of Expression. When the offices of the Institution were removed
to the Colonnade, the old Administration Building was given up to
business, and it is now known as a lunch-room. The School of Physical
Culture, under Dr. W. G. Anderson, had grown to such an extent that a
new gymnasium had become a necessity, and one had been erected on the
lake-front. In the newer part of the grounds many private cottages
arose, of more tasteful architecture than the older houses.

A notable event of this season was the visit of former President
Rutherford B. Hayes of Ohio. Among the lecturers of 1889 we find the
name of Mr. Donald G. Mitchell, whose _Reveries of a Bachelor_ and
_Dream-Life_, published under the pseudonym of Ik Marvel, are recognized
classics in American literature. Other eminent men on the platform were
Professor Hjalmar H. Boyesen of Columbia University, Professor J. P.
Mahaffy of Dublin University, Dr. Lyman Abbott, Dr. Frank W. Gunsaulus,
Dr. Washington Gladden, Dr. John Henry Barrows, Professor Frederick
Starr, who could make anthropology interesting to those who had never
studied it, Professor Herbert B. Adams, and Corporal Tanner, the U. S.
Commissioner of Pensions, a veteran who walked on two cork legs, but was
able to stand up and give a heart-warming address to the old soldiers.
Dr. W. R. Harper, who was teaching in the School of Theology, gave a
course of lecture
