Increasing Interest In the Republt-
can FIambeau Club.
Members of the Olympia Flambeau club
have been notified to meet at the armory
tonight for drill. Interest in the possibil-
tiles of such an organization for adding
effectiveness to political demonstrations
has caused a general awakening among the
young republicans of the city, and the club
will doubtless be able 20 make a splendid
showing when the members are arrayed in
uniforms and embellished with formidable
fambeaus The military evolutiOns will
form an interesting feature of their public

of the club are familiar with military tao

COmmendable Movement Among
the Eastside Ladies.
A very ingenious literary association has
been formed among the ladies of the East
side under the leadership of Mrs. Stork, an
enthusiastic advocate Of mental Culture.
Any person who will subscribe for a stand
ard magazine or periodical may become
member of the association. After the
magazine has been read by the recipient it
will be passed on to the next member of
the association, each one being allowed to
retain the magazine for one week. A con-
slant stream of good reading matter will in
this way flow through the homes thus
favored and at the end of the year the origi-
nal owners will get their own magazines
back again. For the price of one periodical
a member of the ASSOCIATION will be given
access to reading matter that would other
wise be quite expensive. Already large
number of ladies have joined. Mrs. Stork
will keep track of the Vorious publications

WHAT OUR GOVERNMENT MArSrAINs.
In lite printed case and counter case our gov
eminent maintains, as to the first point BY
historical records, Russian and otherwise. that
from the day Vitus Boring discovered Bering
sea OF the Sea OF kamschaiks in i725. and fron
the day Pribylov discovered the fur seal rooS-
cries on the islands of 81. Paul and ST. George
In lfso, down TO the purchase of Alaska by tho
Cnlted States for $1,000. 900 in 1867, the car
ana bls privileged subjects did assert and exer-
else exclusive jurisdiction over that sea and
the islands within 4. and the seals resorting TO
them With unquestioned and undispu.ed SOW
ereisnty; that in 1921, upon complaint OF
the Russian Fur Company that irresponsible
foreign traders were interfering with their mo-
nopoiy, Car Alexander issued an imperial
ukase prohibiting foreign vessels from ap-
preaching within 100 miles of shore; that this
ordinance was never revoked, as far az it relates
to Boring sea. and that seal life was protected
and fostered by the Russian navy both on the
islands and in Boring sea itself.
As to the second point the United States
maintain that Great Britain and her subjects
RETAINED utterly from sealing in the Boring
sea during the Russian proprietorship, and that
neither by her treaty with Russia in 1925 nor
by it's renewals in lSi3 and 1859 did she gain
any right to take seals In Boring sea- The fur
Their fact that no attempts were made by Brit
ish subjects after the cession Of Alaska until
1888 to take seals is urged proof that in prac-
tice the exclusive Jurisdiction insisted on was
conceded by Great Britain

The University Club has been in growing and
prosperous institution ever since il moved into
its handsome home at the northwes. corner of
18th and l streets about year ago. Like the
Metropolitan Club, the University has grown
from a very small beginning, for it may be
said to date its origin from the fall of 1888,
whet. Young man presented the idea OF FORM
ing a small club. the membership of which was
to be limited TO fifteen. 1t started out, how
ever. with only six members, but this afterward
gave place to desire for increased member
chip and fuller club facilities, and it was not
long before the Meridian Club came into actual
being. Later this club settled in a house on
18th street near Pennsylvania avenue. At the
expiration of its years lease the club moved
into the handsome old Hunter mansion, on the
south side OF / street between 18th and 18th.
Soon after this the talk arose OF forming a
university club, but 1t was some time before
anything was actually done in the matter. The
plan contemplated an institution on the lines
of university clubs in other cities. The ques-
ton arose az to whether there was room for
another new club and the roster of the Meridian
Club showed that its members we're, with few
exceptions, eligible under University Club re-
strictons. On January 10, 1891, by virtue Of
resolution constituting the board of gov
errors a committee with full power to take all
seton which they deemed necessary to change
the Meridian into a university club the Uni
versity Club sprang into lie and being. and it
Is today looked up to as potent factor in the
club life of Washington.
Candidates for membership in the club must
be at least twenty-three years of age. They
must have pursued a course Of study for at least
three years at a recognized college or university
or the United States Military or Naval Academy,
or have received degree. either in cource or
honorary. from such college or university.
Candidates for membership who have been stu
dents at professional schools or universities
only shall not be held eligible for membership
unless practicing their respective professions
at the date of application or unless they shall
have formerly engaged in the practice thereof
for al least three consecutive years.
So successful has been the University. Club
since its beginning and encouraging is the
outlook for the future that last january the
club took possession OF the property situated nj

With modest beginning the club soon be-
came an assured success. and today. under the
name OF the Army and Navy Club and with a
membership of nearly thousand, it is at once
the pride and comfort of the two branches of
the service. IL Is Iii this club house that old
