prefer them to carpets
especially for cham

being that they are so
easy to keep clean. We

a new feature in

WORLDS FAIR.
X. L. COMMISSIONERS MET THIS
MORNING.
The Question OF Awarding the Prize for
the Best Plan to be Decided by the
Supreme Court.

The Worlds Columbian Commission
met this morning at 10 o'clock IN the
office of the commission in the Butler
Exchange. rhe usual report OF execu-
tive Commissioners Wyman was read and
received.
Col. Wyman reported that diagrams
had been furnished the exhibitors. whi
showed their location. and the exhibit
ors found that they had ample space.
Preparations for the fishery exhibit were
going on rapidly. The educational ex-
hibit will be shown in Butler Excnange
for the benefit of the public before it Is
sent To Chicago.
President Andrews announced that At
torney Stone wished to make few re-
marks to the commission.
Mr.. Stone appeared to press the claim
OF MIR. Banning. the architect, who
claimed that the $3.50 which the com mis-
sion advertised would be paid for the
plan accepted. He claimed that the plan
which was accepted was not presented at
the specified time and that Mr.. Banning's
plan was the best OF those presented ac-
cording to the decision of the committee
OF architects to whom the matter was re-
ferred, and therefore entitled TO the
prize. Mr.. Stone asked that the matter
OF the liability OF this commission be de-
cided by The Supr eme Court. as Gov.
Brown had expressed Willingness TO
place the matter DeIoTe the court III the
commission should so decide.
After Mr.. Stone had withdrawn, Mr.
Simms exp lained that Mr.. Banning was
not entitled to the prize as his design
was not acce pied. The commission had
the right to reject all the plans submitte ed
aud they had uoDe 50, accepting one that
had been sent in later. The proposition
distinctly stat ed that the accepted plan
should receive the prize. He thought the
matter could be settled by the commits
sion.
Mr.. Thornley, thought that IL it was
submitted to the Supreme Court that
would ent all lii iigation, and he made u
motion 10 that eff ct.
Mayor Pond OF Woonsocket seconded
the motion, saying that a suit would be
brought il this was not done
Considerable time was consumed in the
discussion of the matter, aud wien the
vote was taken the commission deciued
to refer it to the Supreme Court through
Gov Brown.
Tue finance COMMITTEES had been dir
ected to make a report, aud Mr.. Watson
made a partial report Of what money had
been expended, asking an extension of
time til the next meeting, when some
figures which it had been impossible to
get might be obtained, aud when he
would submit a full report.

The ancient Roman laws hal much OF

There still remain certain minor degra-

some day be eliminated. Women them

them: Some portions OF Europe are
ahead of us In this regard.
We are rapidly coming to extend the
same educational opportunities to our
women that we do TO our men. Tue old
idea that education implies masculiniry
has long been exploded. Physical objec-
tions have also been controvertei. The
average health and strength of college
girls Increases as they near their senior

course could only be utilized by young
woman OF masculine tendencies. Statis-

Mrs. Cook paid "A handsome tribute tc
