prevailing in western cities, whereby the opportunity
is given to procure good watch for very low price.
through the agency of cooperative clubs The plan las
follows: Clubs composed of forty members who
pay one dollar for membership fee, which payment
goes to the originator Of the plan. When the club is
formed they mutually agree to purchase forty watches
for the sum Of seven hundred and sxty-fve dollars.
Each week thereafter the members meet, and
each pays one dollar, at which time a mum
Der is drawn which entities the owner Of
such number to select and receive his watch,
similar to the old plan of watch clubs. with the
cepton that upon the drawing of number further pay
ments of that number cease. The remaining members
Qess each weekly continue their payments and
drawings for thirty weeks, when all payments cease
and the remaining ten members receive their watches
The watches distributed are gold-flled case,
made by James Boss, with either Egin, Waltham,

DEDICATION POEM.

rltten for, and read at the first meetil
ansas K. S. A. in their beautiful ney
me McDiarmid Block, Little Rock,
B. Brooks.
Gan we paint the cleaning sunshine,
The twinkling light of the stars;
The snow kings mantle of ermine:
The dawn with its crimson bars;
The purple and golden glory
That comes with the morning gray:
The dewdrops that flash and sparkle
Ere kissed by the sun away2
Can we paint the hush of twilight,
The deepening shadows that creep
Ger mountain, forest and river
Ere the world is lost in sleep?
All, mo- these beautiful pictures,
That charm and with rapture thrill,
Their mem'ry alone may linger,
Their beauty defes our skill.
And SO, though strive to tell you
To-day, true woman's worth,
No skillful artist can aid me
ana OF words there is dearth.
Rords-like statues wrought of marble,
Classic, finished in design
Lack the living, breathing spirit,
Lack the fire of life divine.
Not cen the skill Of a Raphael,
Nor G9the's, nor Schiller's pen,
Could truly portray her virtues,
Her worth is beyond all ken.
Yet our humble, simple tribute
On this altar here we lay,
And we pray Gods choicest blessings,
Be and rest on her al,cay.
Strong In Christ like heavily virtue,
May she keep In God her trust
He will grant to her the battle =,
In cause so right, so just;
He will work through her redemption,
Sin and vice shall be cast down;
Yet, triumphant over evil,
She shall wear the victor's crown.

and John Morissey was said to have been sent to
represent the gamblers. But who is sent to rep
resent woman, and the all-important interests en-
trusted to her management
And again:
"'Women will lose in popular estimation when
they vote, and will fail to receive the courtesy of
men as before. The ballot confers power on
those who are endowed with it, and power always
commands respect. To be weak is to be miserable,
and enfranchised woman will be more respected
than ever before. A gentleman is always courte-
GUS, and boor is always a boor, and from gen.
tlemen women Of no condition have aught to fear ;"
The question whether prisons and reformatory
institutions are instruments for revenge; whether
they are intended to reform those condemned
to suffer confinement, or merely to punish them,
has been one which has been discussed long ago,
and is one with which the public is familiar But
the question whether it shall be one for the re-
formation of the male portion Of those who are
held as prisoners, and of revenge for the women,
has been brought prominently before the eyes Of
the people by Mrs. Clara Hoffman, president Of
the W. G. I. u Of Missouri, in her report of the
manner in which the Missouri penitentiary is con
Quoted. She says, "Fifty-fve women convicts,
white and black, arc ,s3nfacd in one room, where
they have to Sleep sick or well that they have no
hospital to which they can be sent when treatment
and quiet are absolutely necessary, but have to
sleep in the nauseous atmosphere engendered by
the respiration Of fftyfve persons, and where the
noise and confusion is such as to preclude the hope
OF relief to feverish patients, while the men are
confined in cells of two or three inmates, where
they have the advantage Of privacy, and they also
have hospital privileges when sick' Is this thing
so? and If 80, why are these differences made in
the sexes? Is it because it is mere necessary to
reform the men than the..women; or is it that they
have adopted the old WORKOUT idea that when q
woman falls she falls like Lucifer never to arise.
We had thought that that old antediluvian idea
had been buried too deep to resurrect It, We hope,
for the credit of our neghboring State that these
things are not 80 bad as they seem. But while ON
this subject, we wish to say that our prison dis
cpne is years behind the civilization and enlght-
eminent Of the age. In such institutions punish
ment should be the necessity, but reformation the
object. AS it is now, in most Of such institutions
the wild, thoughtless, inexperienced and half inno-
cent country boy is sent to prison to be confined
side by side with the hardened metropolitan con-
vict, to listen with bated breath to his highly
painted exploits and adventures, and to emerge
after term Of years proficient graduate in
crime. You had better send him to his Maker
with the one small blot upon his soul, than pre-
serve his life to curse his kind and then 60 to the
final judgment as blackened and distorted GRIM
inal. We firmly believe no other field Of labor for
humanitarianS promises as great results as re-
formation of our prisons,

ONLY six of the United States allow married
mother to be an equal owner and guardian with
their father of her minor children. What an out
rage upon motherhood And what speaking
evidence that men make laws for men, without re-
gard to how such laws will appear from the wom-
ans view, or how belle their own boosted chvalry
towards the sex. What more unchivalric senti-
ment than that embodied in law which says to a
mother you are not fit to take charge Of the chill
dren you bear.
THOSE who had the pleasure of listening to Miss
Willard larst spring, will recall the touching story
she told Of Mother Margaret Of New Orleans, and
the beautiful tribute she paid to her memory This
woman, who accumulated large fortune by hon.
est toll, never owned silk dress or wore pair Of
gloves in her life. Yet in memory of her many
deeds Of love and charity there stands in the
Crescent City today, in front Of one Of the Or

HE State Prohibition Alliance held their first
session in the House Of Representatives Wednes-
day evening. This is the fifth annual meeting Of
the Alliance. The Executive Committee met ct
pm. and arranged for an enjoyable program,
which was happily carried out. After devotional
exercises conducted by Drs. Gray and Gold, Miss
Phillips sang beautiful solo. This was followed
by the Presidents annual address, read by the
wife of the President, Mrs John Hollum. Too
much praise cannot be given the preparation of
this most excellent address, nor the beautiful, i'm
pressive manner in which Mrs Houm rendered
it. DR.. Miller delivered the address of welcome
in his usual happy STYLE and excellent responses
were made by Revs. W. D. Mathews and H. W.
Brooks, assisted by Mesdames Clark and Sutton.
Speeches were made during the evening by Col.

of trained and thoroughly reliable assistants, this
bureau is able to furnish guides for ladies shopping
in any part Of the city, as well as accompany them
to all places of interest-art galleries, theaters,
concerts, etc.-the guides having practical knowl-
edge Of the history Of all such places. Their
chaperons, selected with the utmost care, place at
the disposal of young ladies' whose mothers or
guardians are unable to accompany them, the facil
tiles so often required Of going to the theater or
concert. Young ladies are escorted from and to
their homes; or school children to and from their
schools They will also send out home or foreign
excursion parties Of ladies, under the care of ex-
perenced chaperons who will attend to all ordi-
nary and necessary details.

Judge Miller Insfruots the Police to
Look After Hack Stands.
There was a test made in the Police
Court this morning to ascertain whether
cab drivers and owners could be COM
PEELED to contribute toward keeping the
hack stands clean. Officer Acton testi-
fed that at the Sixth. street depot the
stand was kept clean, but that there
were some drivers for the H"rdic Com
pany VINO positively refused to do their
share.
Attorney Hay representc the Herdic
Company in the defense OF the drivers.
He claimed that the company did not
know who was responsible or who
ought to receive the pay for
cleaning these stands. One of the
drivers of the herdic stated that the
company had paid 300 within the past
few years for keeping hack stands clean.
Judge Miller informed the company
that they would be compelled to do
their share, and the police were in
structed to see that they did.

CHICAGO AND THE WORLDS FAIR.
Sono Interesting Observ atlons of the
Hon. Whitelaw Reid.
From the Herald.

From tie Herald.
We asked Mr.. Reid what effect the
action of Congress regarding the
Worlds Fair had had Gpon the interest
Of the French people.
That is a. subject on which / oc.
cupy delicate ground" he said smiling.
"As public officer and an American
] shall do my best to get foreign aid
for it, and shall do all in my power to
advance its interests. But personally,
and as New Yorker, | must confess
that / was disappointed that this city
was defeated. 1t will undoubtedly
make difference with the interest
which France will take in the fair.
AS Frenchman said to me soon after
the vote was announced: why, you
might aswell talk of having Worlds
Fair at Lyons. 1t is large city, /
know. But who would come TO 1t or
esteem it a French affair par excellence
if it were not held in Paris.
There is no doubt" continued Mr..
Reid, that the decision of Con
gress will affect French travel in this
country. The French are not great
travellers, and when to 5000 miles of
ocean is added 1000 miles of inland
travel in a strange land, where the
French of Paris is not spoken, you will
find them very timid indeed.
"Just before sailing l was talking
with the head of the recently deposed
Cabinet, which had so much to do with
| the success of the Paris Exposition.
He was commenting on the short time
left for preparing for Worlds Fair,
and he said, with good deal of force,
| thought Why have Worlds Fair
at all? America has beaten the world
tanning the forces of nature; let her
have u National Fair which shall eX-
hibit her own imperial resources. II
would be much better than any attempt
to follow in the lines of any preceding
exposition.
"But, seriously" continued Mr..
Reid, 81 find one very serious cause for
lukewalmness on the part of the artists
of France. They complain that America
steals their ideas, particularly in the
line of decorative art, bronZes, ETC., and
they are also sore, and with good cause,
because we impose duty of 80 pei
cent. on foreign works Of art. This
feeling will be manifest, / have nc
doubt, when we come to ask for con
tributions, and ii would be felt equally
If the Fair were coming to New York
have always held that works Of ar
should he duty free, and l am more
strongly of the opinion than ever tha
the tariff on them should be removed.
