Mrs. Terhune also declared that in associa-
ton and in the forming of women's clubs for
mutual Improvement lay the true secret of
building up character equal to the intel
lectual and practical demands of domestic
life. What kind of wife," she asked, "can
a girl make who never thinks of anything
but her trade, her clothes and herselfi Empty
headed wives who can talk of nothing that
interests an intelligent man, are respon-
sible for three-fourths Of the drunken
ness and unfathfulness that makes hell Of

The delegates in attendance were in no
sense of the word either husband hunters or
suffragists. But they recognize the possible
ties and duties of life and it is their sincere
and praiseworthy desire so to equip them
selves mentally that the opportunities of the
future shall not find them unprepared to fill
their destined roles either as working women,
wives or voters.
The meeting at the Metropolitan Opera

gavel once to bring the delegate from Blank
vile to order, and her pretty subordinates,
the sergeants-at-arms who clustered about
the entrance door, unlike men who hold the
same positions, had no one to warn to quit
smoking aud none to eject for drunken OBJ
streperousness. Instead, they auttered
around to find seating accommodations for

busy, cheerful and just little bit impressed

Capt. F. S. Dugmore, of the British Royal
Naval reserve, has anything but high opin-
ion of the way Florida justice is administered.
After cruising about the world for seven
years in his schooner yacht Rosalind he an
chored in Tampa bay the other afternoon
and went ashore. During his absence the
sheriff of Hllsboro county boarded the YES
sci and seized it on an attachment. 1t was
claimed that the Dugmore family owed a
balance on land deal with real estate
agent. The captain threatens to make the
case an international one. Although again
in possession of the Rosalind he feels that
some sort of recompense is due his wounded
feelings, and he has therefore brought the
affair to the notice of the British minister at
WASHINGTON.

United States the possessor of the largest

and upwards of any country in the world ~

The most novel situation in which a man
was ever placed was probably that of a
Chinaman who recently attempted to snug

authorities via the Niagara Falls suspension
bridge, The Dominion officials refused to let
him in unless he paid the $50 tax imposed

The West Coast of Africa Healthy.

ers, and still others whose gray hair told of
honored age. But old and young alike were
animated by one common purpose-the bet
terment of the condition of working women
through the medium of cooperation.
1t was in no sense gathering of ''cranks"
or "reformers" Those present had no quar-
rel to make with capital or employers They
simply met to consult regarding the best
means of utilizing their wages and experience
for the common good. Various ideas were
presented, some Numerically opposed to 9TH
ers; but along one particular line the thoughts
of all ran smoothly and in concord. That
was the line of domestic happiness, of home,
of family This portion Of Miss Dodge's open
ing address, for example, was received with
rapturous applause;
"When the convention closes we hope also
to organize a B. w. and NJ branch for the
young brides, wives and mothers who were
formerly club members. And when we have
the wives, mothers and babies all enrolled we
shall hope still further that the brothers and
young husbands shall unite and cooperate
with us in developing means for self culture
and a higher life"
And this portion of Mrs. Terhune's address
also secured the heartest approval;

HE BUILT THE ROYAL WILLIAM.



The Savannah, a vessel built at New York
early in the year 1919, is generally spoken of
by historians as the first steamship to cross
the ocean, but it is asserted in opposition to
this statement that she was not an ocean
steamer, but "a regular built, full rugged
sailing ship, and that she depended more
largely upon her sails than upon her crude
paddle Wheels" Accepting this criticism as
well founded the honor of being the initial
predecessor of the modern 'greyhounds" be-
longs to the Royal William, which was built
at Quebec
The man who superintendent the construc.
ton of the Royal William is now resident
of Chicago. His name is James Goudie, and
he enjoys excellent health, despite the fact
that he is over 81 years of age. Speaking of

VIOLENT LovE-MAKING.
A Widow Forced to Take q Hubby She
Did Not Want.

FERNASDINA (Fla} April 26th.-This
town is all agog over the cratic and violent
love-makiDg of G. r. Hubby, City Coun-
Gilman. Mrs. Thorpe, q respectable and
attractive widow, was married to Hubby
late yesterday under circumstances which
were scandalous in the extreme. Mrs.
Thorpe says that during drive in the
morning with Hubby he drew pistol and
threatened to shoot her if she did not at
once consent to marry him. After forcing
her consent he drove her to his residence
and sent for Rev. Mr.. Cross to marry them
Cross responded in person, and Yves met by
Hubby, who handed him license. Cross
examined it, and. finding it correct, he pro-
ceeded with the ceremony. During all this
Mrs. Thorpe had sat hopelessly silent on q
lounge, with her head resting on her hand.
She stood uD at the reques. of Cross, and in
low tones made the responses of the EDis-
copal ritual without any outward sign of
disturbance till the ring was to be placed
on her finger when she dropped in dead
faint.
Soon after the ceremony Hubby went to
the Egmont Hotel and informed her parents
of the marriage. During his absence Mrs
Thorpe succeeded in escaping from the
house and reaching her parents, and told
them of the threats used to induce her to go
through the ceremony. She broke down
completely and doctors were hastily called
in. Mrs. Thorpe's father threatens to kill
Hubby on sight.

few less known generally, than TIE Cave
OF Guacharo, in the Republic of Venezuela,
IN South America. Indeed, until Hum
boldt published his mastery delineation of
this quarter of the globe, Europeans were
ignorant of its existence, although it had
been long known to the Spanish nissiona-
RES, and was for generations place of awe
and terror to the natives. 1t is situated
near the picturesque and delightful Valley
of Caripe, which lies to the west of the
Gulf of Paria, in about 10o Of north lati-
tude.
In a country where love of the marvel
Gus is prominent feature of the mental
character, a cavern whose unexplored re-
eesses give birth to a river, and which is
inhabited by myriads of nocturnal birds.
whose terrible cries awaken all the echoes
of the dreary subterranean, is, of course, a
never-failing subject of conversation, and
the attention of Humboldt was very soon
drawn to it.
The cavern continues to wind in the
same direction, to be of the same breadth,
and to retain its original hight of 20 feet
for distance of $50 feet, beyond which
1t begins 10 contract in its dimensions.
Throughout its length flows a stream of
water, IN some places thirty feet in breadth
and tive feet in depth, but from what
source this subterianean river comes no
one as vet has been able to tell as the
roughneSs of the cavern and various inn
pediments prevent the progress of explo-
rers beyond certain point. On issuing
from the mouth Of the cave, and running a
few leagues, the stream joins the River
Santa Maria, whose waters ultimately fall
into the Gulf of Paria.
Humboldt was astonished to find the
cavern Astounding in vegetation considera-
bly, beyond the distance which the suns
light penetrated. 1t appears that seeds
which are carried into the cave bv the old
birds to feed their young spring up wher-
ever they can fix themselves in the mold
that covers the calcareous iucrustations.
Blanched stalks, with some half-formed
leaves were found to have attained the
hight of two feet.
II is well-known that when light is ex-
Guided from plants they become pale and
distgured, Of which an instance on a grand
scale was here afforded. In advancing, the
vault gradually began to contract in hight,
and in proportion as it became lower. the
cries of the guscharoes sounded more shrill
and piercing. The Indians at last refused
to proceed any further, and Humboldt was
compelled to retrace his steps to the free
air and the light of day He found that a
bishop had penetrated much further than
ne, having measured nearly $500 feet from
the mouth to the spot where he stopped,
although the cavern, to all appearance,
extended great deal deeper.
