TO discuss the best way Of handling the
topics of the time, to talk over rates. to
meet and welcome newcomers to the
Coast, and also to write out hasty reports
that require the examination of reference
books and exchanges. There ought to be
some place with a central location Where
women journalists might go to make up
their reports. have bite of luncheon,
READ THE NEWEST BOOKS,
Write their business letters and entertain
their friends. There ought to be sleeping
apartments and bathrooms for out of town
members who are obliged to travel alone,
and who hate the cheerlessnesS of the ordI-
nary hotel. There ought to be one place
where visiting editors and journalists might
be entertained.
A movement is now under way to form
such an association The first membership
roll Will include one representative from
each of the periodicals on this Coast from
Washington to Southern California and as
FAR East as Colorado. The benefits to cor
responding members will lie in the literary,
Geographic syndicate and local news ser.
wee, which will form a part of the Work OIL
the club.
In order to allow the accumulation of
working fund the Pacific Coast Literary
Bureau has offered the use of its rooms Tor
one year to the club, and has offered also 10
provide nucleus for a good reference
library at the ecd of the first year. As the
the reading facilities for the club will be
pretty good from the start.
THE CLUB WILL BE OPEN TO WOMEN
Journalists special writers. artists, maya
zine contributors and editors An honorary
President will be chosen from the most
prominent editors in the United States, and
working President will be elected from
the local ranks. Only earnest women in
good standing in the community Will be
eligible Tor membership.
1t Is proposed also to carry list OF sub
scrlptlon members who wish to use the
reading, lunch and reception rooms.
About one hundred women will be in
ylted to become FIRST members" OF the club,
aud as the dues will probably not exceed 30
cents month, no difficulty in securing
members Is anticipated. 1t is to be hoped
that the idea will be met with cordial good
will.
The Century Club of this city fills a great
want, and its members deserve the warmest
commentator for the footing upon which
they have placed the club. But the Cen
tury Club is for the purely literary women,
with most OF whom the use of the pen IS a
pastime. 1t is also Tor strictly social pur-
poses. The proposed club, on the other
hand, is for workers and for working pur-
poses. Hence the two clubs will never
conflict; and it is to be hoped that in time
they will labor hand in hand for their
mutual interest and benefit.

Editor Womdn's Column, Morning CAL ::
1t is somewhat surprising to one who has
lived in older and larger cities to find SO
little organization among women workers
in the various professions as there seems to
be on the Pacific Coast. The temperance
workers band together, it is true, and a few
latter especially seem organized for social
intercourse quite as much as for beneficial
reasons.
The facilities for communication among
WON, women journalists are absolutely lacking.

coRDRAY,s NEW THEATER.
Ladies' Matinee Day Has Been Fixed
For Wednesday Every Week.


Matinees for ladies are held in high favor
in all the leading cities of this country.
Why? Because they are fashionable. Be
cause they arc select For the reason that
they are for ladies especially, and for the
reason that the horrid creature, man, can
not. consistent with his manliness, put in
an appearance.
At matinee, during an interval, what
would not the signing, despairing lover
give to hear some of the condolences which
Chloe reposes in her truest feminine friend.
And what a cyclone of bald heads is averted
by the non-presence of the devoted bubbles
to listen to the exchanges between Mrs. A.
and Mrs. B. Fashionable matinee! Does
it not afford one of the most de-
lightful opportunities for gossip-for
a discussion of the girth of Mrs. Refunds
waist. the trimming of Mrs. G.'s bonnet,
and the awful taste of Mrs. Y. in selecting
and combining colors And does not the
matinee contribute much to the equa-
nimity and peace of mind of the reverend
gentleman who dispenses moral truths on
Sundays? 1t gives the dear creatures less
to talk about when they meet in the house
of God, and gives the glow of inspiration
to the good pastor who attributes the in

ager Cordray has especially designed it for
the beneht of all ladies in fashionable
Seattle. There are old ladies, whose in
frmities preclude them from at
tending night performances. There
are mothers who can spare an hour
in the afternoon, while it would
be inconvenient to absent themselves from
their families in the evening. There are
ladies who have date after date for party
or ball in the evenings, who are at liberty
during the matinee hour. Manager Cor
dray had all this in mind when he fixed
Wednesday of every week as ladies matt
nee day. His matinee performances III
Portland for ladies are the most success
FIJI and gratifying features of his manage
ment there. Seattle ladies, Mr.. Cordray
will find, are not slow to recognize and APP
preciate special efforts to please and amuse
them.
Yesterdays matinee was slightly larger
than the first given, but scarcely warrants
the extra trouble, not to speak of the ex-
pense, to which the management is sub
jected. Ladies do your duty. Mr.. Cor
dray and his excellent company are doing
theirs. Life in Great City" again to-
night.
