THE CLUBHOUSE, NO. 14O6 G STREET N. W.,
NEAR U. S. TREASURY.
usually say, "We will meet in Mr.. Blanks
drug store'' or perhaps some cold street
corner is selected. But now these meet
ings in stores and on street corners need not be
necessity, for the long word at the heading of
this article means home or meeting place for
women, where they will find well-lighted, COM
books, magazines, daily papers, and, more than
all, hearty welcome from A. M. until 10 p.
NJ. every day, including Sunday.
And all this has been accomplished through
the eXertions of some brave women who have
duly organized Wimodaughss as a ioint-stock
company Capital not to exceed 5000, ,000) and
procured temporary residence until the neces-
sary funds shall be secured to build large
clubhouse especially designed for women. The
stock is non-sssessable and the officers are
under bond The shares have been placed at
the low price of s. each, and the first issue is
now being rapidly subscribed for.
Here also competenC persons will teach
French German, Spanish, Latin, music, paint
ing, hygiene, physiology, gymnastics, short
hand, type-writing, type setting, cooking, dress
making, millinery, etc, etc, and the monthly
payment of very small amount entities women
to enjoy the many privileges offered by this
new club. Women from the North, South,
East, and West will find here quiet place after
long or short journey, and can come directly
to this pleasant home with its attractive lunch
room and after resting while will be furnished
or boarding places, if they desire.
For SIN all sum they can here procure fe-
male guide or chaperon to show them all the
places of interest in this beautiful city. Many
persons still have the wrong idea of this new
club, and we often hear such remarks as this ::
"Oh if Winodaughsis means place for women
suffragists and the w. G. T. U. only, l. for one,
shall not go near it' Many women of to-day
are not enlightened enough to see that one
clubhouse can contain all the associations,
and still they will not interfere with each other.
Where all are working for the same end, the
welfare of women, it does more good than harm
to have diversity of thought, for two heads
are usually better than one, and if we can only
talk over and exchange thoughts with each
other in a home-like, quiet place our minds
grow and we have broader ideas than if we stay
shut up within ourselves and never grasp any
one by the hand because they do not believe
| just as we do.
1t is great comfort to know that we are all
treated alike in many ways, for God, our good
| heavenly Father, makes the sun to shine and
the raint to fall on all, on the just and on the
unjust. We are all workers in the same vine
yard, but we must see that our work is vel
| done.

trimmings in every variety of fur, just received

Messrs. Willett & Ruoff, No. 9O5 Pennsylvania
avenue is the most complete and attractive
that is to be seen this side of New York. 1t
seems almost supertluous to state that all goods
sold by this firm are warranted. The business
standing of Messrs. Willett and Ruoff is such
as to be guarantee that all goods handled by
them are entirely reliable and are sold as low
as by any house in America. Dunlap's New
York hats constitute one of the specialtes at
this establishment, but the stock also COM
prises plush wraps and muffs at cost, silk UNI
brellas, canes, and numerous other desirable
and stylish seasonable garments and articles
appropriate for holiday presents.

WIMODAUGHSIS.
The New club for Women.


Wimodaughsis What queer, long word
What does it mean says every one who sees it
for the first time. Let me explain, and you
will sec that the word is not any too long, for
in 1t are combined almost everything which
makes life worth living. Take the word in
syllables -wi-wives, mo-mothers, daugh- -daugh-
tiers, sis-sisters. Now, could we have any homes
without all that this word contains?
Now although these wives, mothers,
daughters, ana sisters all want to do whatever
they can to make life pleasant to their husbands,
fathers, sons, and brothers, some of them have
to earn their bread by leaving their homes,
others have no quiet, well-lighted room in
which to read or study; others, still get very
tired in the daily routine of housekeeping and
caring for little children, even though these
cares are dear to their hearts We all know
how true the saving is that "All work and no
play makes Jack dull boy" and it is the same
with Jill. She, too must have an outing once
in while. Only watch a father or brother
shut up in the house for two or three days and
see If you find him as agreeable n companion
on the third day as on the first
So we have come to the conclusion that the
women of the family do need some outside in
terest as well as the men. Where shall the in
terest be centered; in the church Yes, some
times, but even there you will not find all that
these wives and mothers need. If they are 60
ing to the church sociable or to the theatre and
wish to meet friend there must be place of
meeting appointed, especially If the persons re-
side in different sections of the city. They

a New Building Collapsed - LabOTers
Buried in the Ruins.
JERSEY CITY, N. j., Nov. 22.-The walls of a
new brick building in course of erection by
Wells Fargo, & Co., on PaVonia avenue sud
denly fell this morning, burying large num-
Der of men in the ruins. The police, tremen,
and ambulanees were soon on the spot and the
work of extricating the buried men commenced.
From underneath the big pile of brick and
timbers were heard faint calls for help. ''We
are being crushed to death % ''For Gods sake
help us out' While willing hands tore away the
bricks from the manned limbs of the men
underneath, Others pulled away iron girders
and heavy blocks of wood. Eight masOns,
twelve iron workers, and fifteen laborers were
taken out and sent to the hospital. George
Barrett was crushed to death. The injuries of
some are regarded as fatal, and it is probable a
number of them will die
The broken wall was twelve inches thick and
was too freshly built to stand the strain of the
high wind which prevailed and the weight of
the timbers and girders. a large portion of
the pressed brick front on Payonia avenue is
badly bulged and cracked and will have to be
taken down.

Washington will be represented in the base
ball arena during the year 1891, and the Amer
ican Association will be the organization. The
club will be under the control of a syndicate of
gentlemen, with Mr.. Michael Scanlon at the
head. Mr.. Scanlon has received letters from
prominent ball magnates, pledging support and
cooperation in fixing up affairs and help in Sc
curing talent. President Young, of the League,
called on Mr.. Scanlon, and said that as the
gentlemen composing the new organization had
always been friendly with the League, he
pledged his support as well as that of the
new club. Mr.. Pat Powers, the we'll
known manager of the Rochesters, was
in the city last week in the hope
of securing the management. The man
ayers, however, have settled Mr.. Samuel
