In the evening q large and brilliant
audience assembled III Library Hall, 10
listen 10 an address of welcome by
Hon. Perry Hannah. of Traverse City.
The address was cordial and eloquent
in the extreme, and was responded 10
by Mrs. Wilson on behalf og the asS0ci-
alton.
Mrs. Bates presented an able paper
on "The Diagnosis, Etiology and Pro-
gress OF the Women's Press Associa-
uon." The paper was evidently the
result of most painstaking care and
great study, and was Illuminated with
witty allusious. In defining the words
of the subject assigned her, the lady
said that IN this case Etiology evidently
meant ETH Wilsonology, since the asso-
ciation was largely the result Of her
efforts. Mrs. Bates was frequently sp-
plauded.
"What Can Woman Do?' was the
title Of an original poem, read IN an
effective manner by Mrs. NJ. l.. Rayne.
After some very fine music by local
talent, and a recitation by young glrl
of this city, the meeting closed.
Last evening the Traverse City band,
a fine segregation of young musicians,
serenaded the ladies OF the Press ASsO-
citation at their commodious quarters At
Park Hotel, where they are the guests
of Hon. Perry Hannah.
Promptly at O'Clock this morning
| carriages began arriving 10 take the
| ladies, by invitation OF Hon. :. Barnes,
! for q drive to Traverse Point, newly
| opened resort about ten miles down the
| bay shore. The spot Is indeed most
| lovely one and is approached by a beau
| tiful road with the woods on one SIDE
| and the bay on the other. 1t is scarcely
! possible to imagine a more perfect spot
! OF rest, recreation and Quietude than
! Ne-ah-ta-nantS, the spot visited. There
we found Mrs. J. l.. Mulliken tenung
and the contents of her cookie Jsr were
very acceptable. New cottages have
been erected there by Messrs. J. A.
Hunt, Charles Hilton and +. A. Tread
