ATLANTA'S CAPTURE.
Womans Suffragists Hold Their Noxs Ar
nunl Convention Here.


nuaI Convention Here.
WASHINGTON. February H.-(Special.)-At
the meeting Of the National American Wo-
mans Suffrage Association this morhihe'
Atlanta was decided upon for the next OH
nual meeting of the association.
The contest was between Washlhs'on'
Cincinnati and Atlanta, and the vote OH l.e
first roll call was as follows: Atlanta o.,
Cincinnati 81 and Washington 80. Atlanta
was then chosen by practically unanimous
vote, there being but one obJectlon 10 III"
ing it unanimous.
Atlanta had for its champion Miss Au-
gusta Howard and Miss Maxwell. MISS
Maxwell said that woman convention was
regarded In the south as Il curiosity, anu ~
bring the woman suffrage convention 10 the the
south would bring women together from diI
over that section of the country. Mr. Henry
Blackwell and the Rev. Anna Shaw also
thought that Atlanta was the proper place
for the next meeting. They said 1t was the
heart of the solid south, where the conven-
ton could appeal to the men to extend to
the women the political equalities Vouch-
safed to men.
Favorable words for Detroit were spo-
ken by Emily =. Ketcham and DR.. Nc
NauShton. but later Detroit was withdrawn
thus narrowing down the choice to WASH
1ngton, Cincinnati and Atlanta.
1t Was Surprise.
This Is the first time in the history OF
the National American Woman's Suffra ge
Association that il has voted to hold an
annual convention outside of Washington
The scene preceding the taking of the vote
was decidedly interesting and marked the
breaking away of many Of the followers Of
their veteran leader with respect to SUBJ
mission to her wishes.
Among those who spoke in favor Of Wash
fngton were Misses Susan e. Anthony, C.
b. Colby and Lillit DevereauX Blake. Miss
Anthonys argument was devoted to show
Ing that by the conventions annually meet
ing IN Washington more had been done in
making sentiment in the states than could
possibly have been accomplished by meeting
in any other place places. She also re-
ferred to the full press reports of the pro-
ceedings published in the local papers here
and sent out by the press associations, thus
giving plenty of information to congress and
the county at large.
Miss Clay; of Kentucky, Mrs. Murphy, of
OHIO, and Carrie Lane Chapman were three
OF the WarmeSt champions Of Cincinnati,
while Miss Howard, of Georgia Rev Anna
H. SHAW. Rachael Foster Avery all spoke in
favor OF Atlanta. Miss Ketcham, of Michi-
gan, said the women of her state were will
ing the convention should go either to Gin
clnnau or Atlanta. She voted for Cincin-
nan az first but changed when she found
Atlanta was the favorite.

The Campaign Dcepe
Her Valentine.

From Puck
What shall I send you for valentine?
Perhaps there's nothing that would please
me better
Than to enclose this loving heart of mine
Within the snowy pages of my letter.
That would be very innocent and artless,
But then-I know that you would deem me
heartleSS!
Yet take it, dear-such as it is-a true
And trusting heart! You did not strive
to win it:
Unconsciously the poor thing went to you,
Dreaming and daZzled in one golden min
ute!
Let it be thrall to you-sweet service this
isl
Its only recompense your smiles and kisses!

TO CHANGE THE ]. CA. c.
Some Members Want It 1neor-
porated and Called the JeF-
sey City Club.

The affairs of the Jersey City Athletic
Club lave not been as fourishjng of late as
its admirers could wish. Like almost every
other club in the city it has felt the effects
of hard times. While the monthly expendl-
ture was the same the subscription receipts
and other sources of revenue derived by the
club by no means kept pace, and often the
Finance Committee was placed in an unpleas-
ant predicament commonly known as be-
tween the devil and the deep sea. On the one
hand lay obligations concerning when an
inability to meet meant bankruptcy. On
the other hand if the rule pertaining to de-
l~inquent subscriptions was enforced there
would be less chance of ever getting any
thing, and at the same time sources OF sub
scription and other revenue would be cut oil.
"What is to be DONE" asked the rulers OF
the club, ito save the Jersey City Athletic
Club, whose record in the State has been
most enviable?'
A few of these gentlemen, who nave ap-
piled much energy, time and thought to the
problem, have arrived at the solu-
ton that incorporation under the
social law OF this State will per
haps infuse new life into what it is, 1t is
regretable to add, a moribund club. The
title of the new club will be the Jersey CITY
Club and it is whispered that under the
new regime many sweeping changes Wlli DC
made. 1t is suggested to mold the club after
the manner of the New York Athletic Club.
Those who nave clamored for a cafe, a buffet
or call it what you will. will in the future
nave no cause for kicking, and members VIII
find comforts in the new club to which they
have been strangers in the J. G. A. G. There
is sure to be a rumpus over the projected
scheme, but the most captious cavllling
grumbler cannot doubt the sincerity of pur-
pose of the very capable gentlemen who are
engineering the couD de main.

MULYANEY'S WIVES
Two Claim the We1l-knoWn
Pythian, Who Is In St.
Mary's Hospital.
BIG ROW EXPECTED TODAY
No. l Will 60 to the Hospital and
Demand to See Her
"Dear Jimmie"
BIG ROW EXPECTED TODAY

There are bushels of trouble waiting to
heap themselves upon James Mulvaney, for
merly of this city, but recently living at No.
213 Willow avenue, Hoboken, when he shall
have recovered from a fractured leg which
he is nursing at st Mary's Hospital in Hobo
ken. Mulvaney is well known in Pythian
circles in this town. It was his wife who
created a rumpus a little over a year ago at
the big Pythian Fair at Oakland Rink, when
she ripped down the booth she and her
daughter operated, because, she declared,
somebody cheated in counting votes for a
silver teapot and didn't let her have
it. Mulyaney afterwards had trouble
with the Pythians himself and was about to
be bounced. A short while ago the family
separated, and James ven to Hoboken. He
was q carpenter, and had so many friends in
these regions that he had plenty of work to
do. On the morning of June s James fell
from a scaffold where he was at work at No.
11S Washington street. Hoboken. n broke
his right leg. He was taken to st. Mary's
Hospital, where he has since remained. The
next day after his admittance there a stout
lady and her slim daughter called
at the hospital and announced themselves
as M%ulvaney's wife and daugeter. All We're
glad to see one another, and Mulvaney's leg
didn't seem to pain him so much. The two
nave called every day since to see Mulvaney,
and his sufferings have been alleviated con-
siderably.
A SECOND WIFE.
But Mulvaney will be in trouble over his
neck If the representations of an alleged
second wife, who will appear before him to-
day, are correct. This second wife was
shaken by him, she says, nine months ago.
She lives at No. 157 Hopkins ave-
nue., Heights. She had read in the
thought she would trap him. She has been
playing detective about Hoboken for q week
past, securing information about her alleged
husbands actions which she will confront
him with. She says she has found out he
has been living with another woman on
Willow avenue. Her story does not seem to
bear credence in the opinion of the police,
wife is the one he lived with until a short
time ago on Willow court, Heights. They
do not think he married this second claim
ant of his affections.
WILL MAKE THINGS HOT.
Mrs. Mulvaney No. l, as she styles herself,
will make things hot, she promises, by night
fall. She said last night at Hoboken Police
Headquarters that she would call at the hos
pital and demand that the man be handed
over to her.
"He left me nine months ago." she told
Roundsman Hammond, 'and took with him
5000 of mine. I know this is he," she said,
as she was shown the record of the acct
dent. HE is a scoundrel, and l am going
to make him suffer. We lave been married
twenty-four years. | did not know he was
SO unfaithful.n
She was not told of Mulvaney's wife on
Willow court, and probably doesn't know he
has one.
