# The Part Taken by Women in American History/The Washington Travel Club

The Washington Travel Club.
The Washington Travel Club was organized in the Strathmore Arms—the home of Mary S. Lockwood, in January, 1880. Judge Lysander Hill, Frank Eastman, Mrs. Sara Dean, Miss Emily Brigham and Mary S. Lockwood, arranged for the first meeting. The officers were to be a "guide," to preside at the meetings; a "courier," whose duty it was to secure speakers and readers; a "journalist," to keep a record of their travels, and an "executive committee" to form the itinerary and choose the subjects for papers, and a music committee. One notable feature of the club in its organization was the determination to have no exercises of a miscellaneous character—no recitations, reading, declarations, or literary fireworks of any kind.
Every Monday night during the winter months, for sixteen years, this club was sustained with unflagging interest. Different countries were selected from year to year, papers read and the addresses given upon all subjects connected with the chosen country.
The home of this club was historic inasmuch as it had been the home of many distinguished people: General and Mrs. John A. Logan, Senator Edmunds, Judge Harlan, Senator Ingalls, Senator Farwell, Governor Boutwell, Thomas B. Reed, Governor Carpenter, of Iowa, Judge Ezra B. Taylor, ​Senator Fry, of Maine, and hosts of others, including members and senators.
Among the noted people who entertained the club with instructive papers through these years were: General Logan, George Kennan, Olive Logan, Senor Romero, Dr. Chickering, Hon. A. R. Spofford, Hon. and Mrs. John W. Foster, Mrs. J. C. Burrows, Dr. Charles Knight, Dr. Gregory, Dr. Presbery, Judge Hayden, Professor Burgess, Mr. Fox, Minister to Russia and scores of the literary lights belonging to the club and Washington.
The club's first journeys were through Egypt, where they traveled from near and from far without carriage or car. They went up the Nile, through the plains of Palestine, over the hills of Judea, among the Pyramids of Egypt and into the buried cites of Persia. They were given a fair understanding of the geography, biography, government, military, art, religion, literature, ornamental and practical art, common people and history of the country through which they traveled.
One of the first papers presented while the club was in Egypt was by the late General John A. Logan, upon military art in that country. It was wonderful in research, beautiful in expression and abounded in interesting data. When asked where he got all his information he replied. "I have had no book in my hand but the Bible."
Such experiences only whetted the appetites of the travelers, and the executive committee, guide, and courier then planned the trip for "around the world," which was carried out.
# The Part Taken by Women in American History/The Woman's National Press Association

The Woman's National Press Association.
The Woman's National Press Association is the oldest organization of its kind in the world and one of the earliest of women's clubs. The Association is national having members ​in nearly every state in the Union; also in England and the Philippine Islands.
The first president was Mrs. Emily Briggs, "Olivia." At the close of her term Mrs. M. D. Lincoln was made president, followed by Mary S. Lockwood, Mrs. Hannah B. Sperry, Mrs. E. S. Cromwell, Mrs. Belva A. Lockwood and Mrs. Peeler. The club has a membership of over one hundred. It has had such names among its members as Mrs. Lippincott, "Grace Greenwood"; Miss Mary F. Foster; Mrs. E. M. S. Marble; Mrs. Clara B. Colby; Mrs. E. D. N. Southworth; Mrs. Olive Logan; Miss Clara Barton. Prominent speakers have addressed the association including such names as Hon. Theodore Roosevelt; Dr. William T. Powell, Geologist; Charles M. Pepper; Dr. Sheldon Jackson; C. K. Berryman, Cartoonist; Lillian Whiting; the late Professor Wm. Harkness; Professor Robert T. Hill; Dr. B. L. Whitman; Hon. Frank Mondell; Frank G. Carpenter; Ainsworth R. Spofford; Mrs. May Wright Sewail; Mrs. Ellen M. Henrotin; members of the United States Congress and many prominent journalists. In December, 1894, the Woman's National Press Association issued the call for the formation of a federated organization of Women's Clubs in the District of Columbia.
# The Part Taken by Women in American History/Women's Clubs in Cincinnati

Women's Clubs in Cincinnati.
After the Centennial in Philadelphia, in 1876, a few Cincinnati women, enthused by that exhibition of artistic beauty, created a sentiment which resulted in the foundation of the Art Museum Association of Cincinnati, whose object was to bring together collections of art and to form classes in art and handicraft. Ten years later the Art Museum arose in Eden Park, the fruition of continuous and enthusiastic endeavor of a few women who were capable of being inspired, and who possessed the ability and devotion necessary to inspire others.
After the World's Fair in Chicago, Cincinnati women who took an active part in furnishing and the administration of the Woman's Building, came home and were influential in the ​organization, almost simultaneously, of the Cincinnati Women's Club and the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestral Association. To-day, the club with several hundred members, is the proud possessor of the first Women's Club House in Ohio, whose every line of architecture and decoration expresses the refined taste and broad culture of its members. The Symphony Orchestra is the pride of Ohio as well as Cincinnati.

​Onei′da, Lake, one of the numerous lakes of central New York. It is 23 miles long and about 5 wide, and flows through the Oneida into Oswego River. It lies 11 miles northeast of Syracuse.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Onion

See also Onion on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
On′ion, a plant with a bulbous root, belonging to the lily family, is a valuable table vegetable which has been cultivated from the most ancient times. Its origin is unknown; but the plant may have come from northeastern Africa or western Asia, for it is mentioned in the writings of the ancient Egyptians. For the cultivation of onions the soil should be as loose as possible. Because a warm temperature is unnecessary, the onion is grown as a winter crop, especially in the southern part of the United States. It is usual to grow onions at the first in hot-beds and to plant them out when they have grown to about four inches. Otherwise, it is necessary to weed and thin them carefully when young. American white onions are milder and more popular than the yellow or the red varieties. Imported onions, as the Bermuda and the Spanish, are even better flavored; and these varieties are now extensively cultivated in the warmer parts of the United States. The potato-onion is a strongly flavored species, almost like garlic, and perennial. Onions are sometimes attacked by such insects as onion-maggots and onion-cutworms. Kerosene, ground-up tobacco-stems and nitrate of soda are used to overcome these pests, but it is well to root up the wilted plants and to rotate onions with other crops.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Orange

See also Orange (fruit) on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
Or'ange, the fruit of Curus aurantium and its varieties. To the same genus belong the limes, citrons, grape-fruits etc. All the species of the genus are natives of tropical and subtropical Asia, but are now extensively cultivated throughout the warmer regions of the world. In the United States orange cultivation centers in Florida, the delta region of the Mississippi and in California. Portions of Texas, New Mexico and Arizona are well-adapted for commercial cultivation. The orange was introduced into this country by the early Spanish explorers, here increased and formed wild groves of large extent. It is a long-lived tree, bears to a great age, is evergreen, and its glossy leaves are set off by snowy blossoms of exceeding fragrance. Blossom, green and ripe fruit may be seen at one time on the same tree. In cultivation it rarely exceeds 30 feet in height, and is a low-branching tree. It is attacked by various diseases, rot, blight and mould, and requires careful cultivation and watching. Scale insects have worked much damage to the orange crop. The red scale is kept in check by fumigating and by spraying. The white or fluted scale, formerly very destructive in California, has been practically vanquished by the Australian ladybird. Oranges are usually cut by hand and kept a few days before packing. There are numerous cultivated forms, the so-called navel oranges being an accidental variation. Among the commoner forms are the common sweet orange, a native of India, among whose most prized cultural forms are the Washington navel and Riverside navel; and the mandarin or kid-glove orange, a native of China, various cultivated forms being known as mandarins and tangerines.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Osaka

See also Osaka on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
​ Osaka (ō′sȧ-kä) or Ozaka (ō′zȧ-kä), the second largest city in Japan, at the head of the Gulf of Osaka. It covers about ten square miles, and is crossed by canals with more than 1,000 bridges. The fine castle, built of enormous stones in 1583, and the palace, which was destroyed in 1858, were perhaps the handsomest buildings in Japan. The city is one of the open ports, the headquarters of the rice and tea trade and the commercial center of the empire. The harbor does not admit very large vessels. There is a foreign settlement, occupied mostly by missionaries. Population 1,226,590.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Ordinance of 1787, The

See also Northwest Ordinance on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
​Or′dinance of 1787, The, was an act of Congress in July, 1787, for the administration of the affairs of the great Northwest Territory of the United States. The ordinance contained this oft-quoted provision: “Religion, morality and knowledge being necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind, schools and the means of education shall forever be encouraged.” The ordinance contained six articles which were expressly stated to be of the nature of a contract between the people of the states already existing and the people of the Northwest Territory. It guaranteed freedom of worship and prohibited slavery in the lands granted to the Ohio Company; and it looked clearly forward to the time when these lands should be organized under permanent constitutions and governments.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Osages

See also Osage Nation on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
​ Osages, a tribe of American Indians of the Dakotah family. They were found by Marquette on the Missouri in 1673, but were driven by their enemies to the Arkansas. They fought with the French against the English and against the Chickasaws. They ceded their lands at different times to the government, and in the Civil War about 1,000 of the tribe went south. In 1870 the tribe was removed to Indian Territory and placed in charge of the Quakers, where they have grown more civilized, having a school and cultivating about 2,000 acres of land.

​ Os′car II, Frederic, king of Sweden and Norway, was born at Stockholm, Jan. 21, 1829. He was the great-grandson of Napoleon I's famous general, Marshal Bernadotte, the first king of the now independent kingdom of Norway; he succeeded his brother, Charles XV in 1872. He followed the policy of his brother, carrying out reforms and reorganizing the army and the railroads. He published a volume of poems, a translation of Goethe's Faust and a sketch of Charles XII. He died on Dec. 8, 1907. See Norway and Sweden.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Osceola

See also Osceola on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
​ Osceola (ŏs′sḗ-ō′lȧ), a chief of the Seminole Indians, was born in Georgia in 1804. His father was an English trader, and his mother the daughter of an Indian chief, who took him to Florida when a child, where he became influential among the Indians. His wife, the daughter of a runaway slave, was taken from him, and for his threats of revenge he was seized and imprisoned for six days by General Thompson, whom he killed, with four others, six months afterward. This was the beginning of the second Seminole War. At the head of a band of 200 or 300 Indians and runaway slaves, he carried on the contest for nearly two years, in the almost impenetrable Everglades. On Oct. 21, 1837, while holding a conference under a flag of truce, he was treacherously seized and imprisoned at Fort Moultrie, S. C., where he died on Jan. 30, 1838. He is the hero of Mayne Reid's Osceola.
# The Panchatantra (Purnabhadra's Recension of 1199 CE)/Book 1/How the Crow-Hen Killed the Black Snake

​ ​At last the crow-hen fell at her husband's feet and said: "My dear lord, a great many children of mine have been eaten by that awful snake. And grief for my loved and lost haunts me until I think of moving. Let us make our home in some other tree. For
No friend like health abounding; And like disease, no foe; No love like love of children; Like hunger-pangs, no woe.
And again:
With fields o'erhanging rivers, With wife on flirting bent, Or in a house with serpents, No man can be content.
We are living in deadly peril."
At this the crow was dreadfully depressed, and he said: "We have lived in this tree a long time, my dear. We cannot desert it. For
Where water may be sipped, and grass Be cropped, a deer might live content; Yet insult will not drive him from The wood where all his life was spent.
Moreover, by some shrewd device I will bring death upon this villainous and mighty foe."
"But," said his wife, "this is a terribly venomous snake. How will you hurt him?" And he replied: "My dear, even if I have not the power to hurt him, still I have friends who possess learning, who have ​mastered the works on ethics. I will go and get from them some shrewd device of such nature that the villain—curse him!—will soon meet his doom."
After this indignant speech he went at once to another tree, under which lived a dear friend, a jackal. He courteously called the jackal forth, related all his sorrow, then said: "My friend, what do you consider opportune under the circumstances? The killing of our children is sheer death to my wife and me."
"My friend," said the jackal, "I have thought the matter through. You need not put yourself out. That villainous black snake is near his doom by reason of his heartless cruelty. For
Of means to injure brutal foes
You do not need to think,
Since of themselves they fall, like trees
Upon the river's brink.
And there is a story:
A heron ate what fish he could,
The bad, indifferent, and good;
His greed was never satisfied
Till, strangled by a crab, he died."
"How was that?" asked the crow. And the jackal told the story of
THE HERON THAT LIKED CRAB-MEAT
# The Panchatantra (Purnabhadra's Recension of 1199 CE)

The Panchatantra has over 200 versions in over 50 languages. This version is from the Panchakhyanaka recension of the Jain monk, Purnabhadra, the longest of the 25 Indian recensions. Known as the North Western Family Sanskrit text, the critical edition of the original, by Johannes Hertel, can be found in the Harvard Oriental Series, vols 11, 12 and 13.
On the translator of this version, G. R. Noyes had commented, "Taken as a whole, Ryder's work as a translator is probably the finest ever accomplished by an American. It is also probably the finest body of translation from the Sanskrit ever accomplished by one man, if translation be regarded as a branch of literary art, not merely as a faithful rendering of the meaning of the original text."

# The New Student's Reference Work/Adirondacks

See also Adirondacks on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
​Adirondacks (ăd-ĭ-rŏn-dăks), a group of mountains in northern New York, lying between Lakes Champlain and Ontario. They rise from a large tableland to about 2,000 feet above the level of the sea, and are chiefly of granite formation. Mt. Marcy, the highest summit, is 5,370 feet high. The forests, especially the white pine, are very valuable. The scenery and abundant game of these mountains have made the region a popular resort for tourists and sportsmen. The state of New York has constituted a forest reserve or park in this district, comprising 2,807,760 acres, an area larger than the state of Connecticut. A large force of men is employed to guard against forest fires, enforce the law against illegal fishing and hunting, and to act as guides. A sanitarium for the treatment of consumptive patients is located at Saranac Lake.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Adjective

See also Adjective on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
​Ad′jective (Latin ad+jacere to add to; to throw out), is a word used in grammar to describe, qualify or limit the meaning of a noun or a pronoun; as a wise man, a good book, a lovely flower, a true story, a happy child, a weariful day. These are called descriptive adjectives, since they express some property or quality possessed by the noun. There are also limiting adjectives used to express number or quality, such as the indefinite article a or an, and the definite article the, this, one, first, some, much, etc. Not a few of these are used like pronouns, and are termed adjective pronouns; some of these are: all, any, each, few, many, such, several, etc. Descriptive adjectives are sometimes, by ​ellipsis, used as nouns; so used, the adjective when it denotes persons is taken in the plural sense, and is usually preceded by the, as “The poor deserve sympathy.” Adjectives are used comparatively, when we desire to indicate that one thing possesses a given quality in a higher degree than another. There are three degrees of comparison—the positive, the comparative and the superlative, as exemplified thus; sweet (positive), sweeter (comparative), and sweetest (superlative). Other examples are, tall, short, warm, cold, great, small, rare, fine, etc.—the comparative being expressed by adding er and the superlative by adding est to the positive. Degrees of quality are also expressed by prefixing to the positive the adverbs more and most, less and least—as cheerful, more cheerful, most cheerful; amiable, less amiable, least amiable. When two qualities in the same person or thing are compared, or when the adjective we want to use follows its noun, the following is the mode of usage: He is more wise than honest. In the English and German languages the usual place of the adjective when it is not in the predicate is before the noun. For examples of phrase-adjectives and other uses of the adjective see any good textbook on grammar.
# The New Student's Reference Work/Adolphustown

See also Adolphustown, Ontario on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
​Adolph′ustown, a town in Prince Edward County (north shore of Lake Ontario), in Eastern Ontario. The United Empire Loyalists first landed at this point June 16, 1784. To commemorate this event an important centennial celebration was held at Adolphustown in June, 1884, at which were present the Lieutenant Governor of the Province (John Beverley Robinson), and other notables. The settlement of Upper Canada (now Ontario) began in 1784 by the arrival of the Loyalists. When the American colonies revolted in 1776 and declared their independence many of the colonists opposed the movement and aided the imperial troops during the war. These were known as the United Empire Loyalists. The war being over, many of them moved and made their homes in the territory known as New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. Others crossed the Niagara River, or settled ​on tracts along the St. Lawrence. A considerable part of the present population of Ontario is descended from these pioneers. In 1784 the total white population of the Province of Ontario did not exceed 20,000. A well known writer says “The event of the Pilgrim Fathers at Plymouth, so praised in prose and verse, was a holiday excursion compared with the arrival of the expatriated Loyalists.”
# The New Student's Reference Work/Adrian (Pope)

See also Pope Adrian IV on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
​Adrian (ā′drĭ-an), the name of six popes. Adrian IV, the only English pope, was named Nicholas Breakspeare. He left England a poor man, went to Paris, became an ardent student, and was soon known for his learning and zeal. He was chosen abbot, then cardinal, and lastly pope in 1154. He was vigorous in maintaining his authority at Rome and throughout Europe. He died in Italy in 1159.
