SATURDAY. evening, June sixteenth,

on his nomination as Senator, which Is
yet to be determined, but for the COM
plete support he received from his par
ty at the caucus held on Saturday af-
ternoon. 1t is indeed a victory of
which our friend may well feel proud.
The members of the Drum Corps are
staunch friends and supporters or Mr..
Bailey, and their music did not lack
enthusiasm. 1t was wholly unexpect-
ed, but Horace is always himself, and
equal to any occasion, and will make as
big a Senator as any two men in the
County. Your correspondent congrat-
ulates Mr.. Bailey, and is glad to know
that his fellow townsmen have at last
acknowledged his ability to serve them.

Opening the Doors,

The action of the University club Of
Boston in promising admission to women
to new set of apartments which it is
planning to build is for this club a
radical one. By it the number of mems
clubs in Boston that have granted priv
ileges of this sort to women is increased
to three, all old and conservative ones.
In New York there are at least seven
prominent mems clubs that offer club
accommodation to their friends of the
other sex, one of these, the Cloister,
making the presence of women at it's
Sunday evening dinners an especial fea-
ture. Throughout the country the club
element has participated more or less in
this movement, few even of the con-
sentative close communion London clubs
having yielded with the rest to it's adj
vance.
