For a number of years Chief
Caupolican, new a headliner in the
Lyceum and Chautauqua world, and
one cf the attractions looked for our
Lyceum Course, appeared in the lead
ing theaters throughout America,
where he was recognised as a star in
the vaudeville world. Caupolican's
stcry of his people is essentially,
however a Lyeeura and Chautauqua
product. It appeals particularly to
the kind of audiences assembled at
the Lyceum. The fact was strik
ingly evidenced last year by request
fcr return engagements from prac
tically every town where he appear
ed. Caupolican is a Chilean Indian,
and he presents lecture entertain
ments in which song and story and
oratory is cleverly woven into one
of the most striking Chautauqua pro
ductions of the present age. Caupol
ican does not present a freak show,
but a scholarly discussion of the
Indian and Pan-Americanism coupled
with rare song and story.
