PATTI ON ZAP

Ii IA left for a California man to
get the drop on Patti with a phono-
graph. For n long time agents for the
instrument all over the United states
have endeavored to induce the diva To
sing into the machine, but she stead
tasty refused. AS she looked at il her
voice was her fortune. IL was a valu-
able property, and all the right, title
and interest in il were vested in her as
sole owner. Nobody claimed to have
so much as an option on il. II was her
own and she lived in n serene sense of
security that no claim-jumper could
dispossess her of il. Possibly Patti
may have resolved to begueath her
voice To posterity. Like enough she
reasoned that as she could not take her
riches with her beyond the grave. she
would through the fundamentally of
the photograph make somebody the
residuary legatee of her vocal treas.
ures. But if this was in her
mind she postponed taking the
necessary step until such time
as she should be ready TO retire
from the stage. And even then under
the diva's directions the divine voice no
doubt would have been stored away
along with her last will and testament
in her trusted lawyers safe until the
proper time for the opening of both in
struments. Whatever Were PATHS

senator Sherman's antitrust bill
looks suspiciously like a little talk to
the galleries. It's all well enough to
fight trusts. but the point made against
sherman by a republican senator is
that no attempt should he made to
give the federal government jurisdic-
ton of a subject over which the states
have ample control. Senator sherman
is attracting attention to his antitrust
movement rather for the uses to which
he may put it in Ohio than for any
good that will ever come of it in the
senate. When John Sherman starts
out to defend the dear people against
corporations, trusts and that sort of
thing, the dear people Immediately
suspect the motives of Mr.. Sherman.

The proceedings at the election Of
president of the General Federation Of
Women's Clubs in this city indicate that
the world is not yet to be deprived Of the
charming illogic of woman.
There has been some fear pervading
masculine bosoms that Sorosis and other
clubs and participation in the active
affairs of life would harden lovely wo-
men into unlovely mannishness. But
this is not to be the case, and the election
proved it.
When Mrs Charlotte Emerson Brown,
the successful nominee. was named, the
principal argument in her favor was
made by Mrs. Thomas, who said: "She
has a husband who sympathizes very
much with her work for woman's uphft-
ing" Now this is reason for choosing
a president. we venture TO say, that
would never have suggested itself to a
male mind.
Mrs. Ella Dietz Clymer was urged on
the ground not that she presides efficient
ly or ably, but in beautiful and gra-
cious manner" There is a great hope
for the human race in this recognition of
the supremacy Of beauty and grace.
Mrs. Kenney, who uttered it, warns our
hearts towards the women's clubs. Mrs
Sewan objected to be president because
she was too young, and Mrs Croly be-
cause she was not tail euough.-NeNg

What Virginia Girls Know.

Several gentlemen from the north have
been in Fredericksburg with the view of
purchasing saddle horses. One day last
week one of them took notion to try
one of several horses in the stables of the
gentlemen who had them for sale; but
as he was not familiar with either the
horse or mode Of saddling and bridhng
him, was about to forego the pleasure Of
a horseback ride when one Of our local
beauties came to the rescue, and in a
moment showed the northerner what a
true southern girl was capable Of doing.
Entering the stall she removed the hal
ter, adjusted the bride, led the ANIMAL
out of the stable. and, throwing the sad
die on his back, buckled the girth and
ordered the blushing northerner to
mount while she held the stirrup for
him. He was stunned, but enjoyed the
ride immensely, doubtless surprised that
a woman so fair could be so handy
