Something New in Clubs.

Ladies' clubs are not unknown in this
country, but the one which has just been
organized in New York is different from
all others. 1t is not composed of blue
stockings" and woman's rights advocates.
In fact. women Of pronounced types" are
not wanted in it. 1t is business and social
club combined, and one of its main objects
is to provide a place where women may
rest while out shopping. On this
account the club house will be
situated in one of the principal
shopping districts of the city. Members
who live out of town may send their pack
ages there, to be kept until called for, or to
be expressed to their homes. These out-of-
town residents frequently find it necessary
to remain in the city over night, and in
stead of going to hotel or making a con-
venience of their friends. they can obtain
rooms for the night at the club house, and
residents of the city, who spend most O
the summer season away from home, and
who have occasion to replenish their ward
robes during the season, have only to
send their orders to the club to have them
executed. A restaurant will be one of the
features, and competent and trustworthy
nurses will be employed, with whom chill
dren may be left temporarily. There will
be drawing rooms and reading rooms, and
the privileges of the club will be extended
to outsiders who are introduced by men,
bers.
This seems to be a very sensible kind of
club, and it will commend itself to the
public chiefly on account of its business
features. Neither women nor men should
depend upon club life for any of the pleas
ures that ought to be enjoyed at home, but
if there are to be women's clubs, one like
that just organized, which affords con-
veniences that could hardly be had without
it, is likely to meet with approval

"Doing" a Ticket Agent,
From the New York Sun.


One of the ticket agents of the Michigan
Central railroad, at a certain town in Canada,
was an airy, independent young man who began
work with the idea that he ran the whole line
The boys" had numerous complaints against
him, and more than once he would have caught
it on the ear had he not been fenced in where
he could not be got at. One evening five or six
of us happened to meet there as we came in on
cross roads, and we soon got on to the fact that
tho general manager and two or three other
officials of the road were in the ticket office
We laid our heads together and put up lob
We all had 1,000mile tickets. but each of the
six went to the window in turn and bought a
ticket for the nearest station east or west,
When all had been served the first went back to
the window and said:
Young man, l think you made mistake"
81 guess not"
81 got ticket to c.. That's 80 cents. I
gave you dollar and you gave me 90 cents
back"
'Humphl That's funny muttered the young
man as he took in the change and corrected the
alleged error.
Then the second went up and said:
Young man, l don't want to beat this rail-
road. / bought ticket to R. which is 25
cents, gave you half dollar, and you handed
me out 20 cents"
81 did, ehY" queried the agent, as he flushed
up and took in the change.
Then the third, fourth. fifth, and sixth man
went up with similar story. The big officials
we're taking it all in, and they got very nervous.
The young man was whittier than chalk at the
end of it, and he was not wrong in believing
that he was doomed. Next day he was re-
placed, and learned few weeks later that he
had quit running a railroad and gone into a
wooden mill 1t cost each of us a small sum out
of our own pockets to work the snap but it was
pro bono publico, and worth double the

Wills and the Court s.

No man can be certain that his estate will
be distributed in accord ance with the pro-
visions of his will The courts frequently
place an Interpretation upon the laws re-
lating to wills very different from that
placed upon it by lawyers. If a man,
therefore, wants his estate to be distributed
in a certa in way he will make the distribu-
ton before he dies if he is wise. Our
dispatches mentioned yesterday that Catha-
rine Donovan had given 500, 900 10 Johns
Hopkins university. Baltimore She stated
that she had provided for her relatives and
wanted to give som ething to the cause of
education. She has the satisfaction of
knowing that her money will be applied to
the pur pose for which she intended it,
A day or two ago the supreme court of
New York decided that Mr.. Tilden's will
was invalid. He had willed that the greater
portion of his vast fortune should be used
in fou nding library in the city of New
York. There is no doubt that he was a
very able lawyer, but he could OF draw a
will, it seems, that would stand in the
courts. He left too much to the discretion
of the executors and trustees named in his
will, the court said. The chances are that
his relations will get his millions, and there
will be no library to keep his memory fresh
in the minds of the people.

Proeress IN the New States.

The governors Of Washington and Mon
tana have recently made their annual re-
ports to the Secretary Of the Interior. The
reports, GOVERN as they do the year just
preceding the time when these territories
wer admitted as states, possess more than
ordinary interest They show the wealth.
popul alton, and resources of the new states.
The prospect, or, it may be said, the GER
tainty, of being so on admitted into the
union seems to have had a stimulating
effect in nearly every direction, and the in
crease Of population and wealth was greater
than in any previous year. The population
Of Washington is placed at 275, 900, or
considerably more than that of Colorado,
Delaware, Nevada or Oregon, and slightly
more than that of lorida in 1880 The rate.
of increase will be mo re noticeable when it
Is remembered that in 1880 the population
was only 1900. The report shows an ex-
traordinary increase in the amount of taxa
bic property, the valuation in 1887 being
eel, 5O0, 900, aud in 1889 1924 100000 Mer-
camille houses, banks and manufactures
have multiplied, and railr Dad construction
has been active, and in spite of the fact that
the business portions of four cities-Seattle,
Vancouver, EllensbIrg an Spokane Falls
-were destroyed by fire this year. in
volv ing a loss of SIC, 200, 900, credit remains
unimpaired. The great staple is wheat, but
corn, barley and hops are successfully cult
waited, and the lu mber industry continues
TO be the most important. Stock-raising is
profitable, but it is not as largely engaged
in as form erly.
The relative increase of population in
Montana since 1880 is greater thanin Wash
ington, the population in 1880 being SO. 900,

Montana has now more inhabitants than

Doesn't Improve With Age,
From the Wdshino ton Post.

1t was strange and struggling signature
spread upon the register at Wizards There
was line above and below it, as if the other
names had shrunk back, startled at its thorny
hooks and trammels. 1t began on one line and
ran down stairs to the next. 1t looked drunk
but was merely decrepit. Yet it was the most
celebrated autograph in America 1t has been
read by millions. 1t has brought happiness
pleasure, prosperity to millions. The wages OF
toilers and the traffic of mighty commerce
moved at its inspiration. The three initials
looked like the production of a civil service re-
formed chairman trying to write Hebrew, and
the rest of the signature looked like mild fac.
simile of Theodore Roosevelt's recipe for
reform.
F. E. Spinner. treasurer of the United States
from 1861 to 1873. 1t was his signature, not SO
firm as of yore but recognizable to the initiated
Col. William r. Morrison strolled mp shortly
after and glanced at the page.
''Humph, the generals writing doesn't i'm

On the next train from New York came Hon.
Conrad N. Jordan, treasurer under the Cieve-
land regime, whose name, next to Gen. Spin
ner's, has decorated more federal currency
than any other. He, too, recognized the sigma
ture OF his venerable predecessor, and passed a
complimentary remark. But his autograph
under Gen Spinner's looks like line of beauty
beside a burdock.

What Eas Mr. Wanan aker Done7


When Mr.. Wa-anaker was appointed
Postmaster General his friends said that he
would improve the mai service very much.
They pointed 70 his success as q business
man, and said that ne would brin into his
official work the energy and sagacity dis
played in the conduct Of his private affairs.
There appeared u be some reason TO hope
that he would really improve the service,
but he has had a pretty good chance 70
show what he ould do in that direction,
and he hasn't done much. In fact, it would
not be easy to show wherein he has i'm
proved the ser vice in any important parti-
cular, and this is especially true of the ser
vice in the south, where improvement is
needed more than In any other section
Some of the republican newspapers say
that Mr.. Wanamaksr is making very fine
record for himself, and that still grea ter
things may be expected of him, but they do
not go to the trou bic to point out in what
his fine record consists, and probably the
reason is that they could not make out their
case. Mr.. Wanan aker has had democratic
postmasters of all classes removed at a
very lively rate, and of course that CON-
mends him to the republican press. but in
doing so he has not improved the servic e.
His appointments do not seem to have
been made so much with view of securing
efficient officia Is as for the purpose of
providing hungry republicans with Office.
In the railway mail service Supt. Bell has
discharged postal clerks by wholesale, and
he has replaced them with set of mex
perienced, and. in many instances, incom-
petent men. Delays and blunders are
noticsably frequeat, and in some sections
the fast mail" is not worthy of the name.
Mr.. Wanamaker has time IN which to
redeem himself, and it is to be hoped that
he will If he doesn't begin soon, however,
the public will be justified in concluding
that a man may be a success as a merchant,
but failure as Postmaster General

Too Economical.

Gen. Greedy, the chief signal officer, has
just sent his annual report for this year to
the secretary of war. 1t is quite an inter :
esting report aud contains considerable in
formation of value. The interest in the
daily weather report is increasing, and the
number who read il be fore reading any
other part of their daily paper is very
large.
The weather bureau is one of the most
useful branches Of the government. All
the money necessary to increase its useful
ness ought therefore to be appropriated
freely. 1t ought to be conducted by the
ablest men that can be obtained for the SER
vice, aud they ought TO be amply provided
with all the means required for the success
full prosecution Of their work.
Gen. Greedy says that he has neither the
money nor the assistants that are needed to
bring the signal serv ice up to a high stand
ard. He has to be so careful in his expend-
itures that no improvements are being
made. He points out how the service could
be render ed more valuable, and he makes
it clear why the predictions SO often fail.
1t seems the forecast officer has a great deal
more work than he can do we'll, and his
predictions are often mere guesses. He
hasn't time to consider the facts carefully
and reach logical conclusions.
There is no doubt that the country wants
the best weather service that can be had,
aud it is willing to pay for it. Farmers
and sailors especially depend upon it. 1t is
a great mistake to be too economical in
providing the means to maintain it,
