All sessions of the ladies auxiliary
will be held in the house Of representa-
tives.
Large Numbers Of Visitors.
It is probable that at no time after
the convention gets under way win the
visitors In the city number less than
1000, and at times it will be much
larger than that number. as visitors and
delegates will come and 20 during the
next three weeks or more, the length or
their stay being gauged by the time
that can be spared from their engines.
Among those who will be- on hand Iii
large numbers, but for short times, are
the engineers from Iowa and some or
the Nebraska divisions.
Much runportans LsSisiation.
Many important matters are to come
before the convention. A proposition
Is expected to decrease the number OF
delegates and thereby reduce the ex-
pense Of the conventions.
IL Is also possible that an amendment
to the constitution governing the action
Of the brotherhood members in emer-
gencies like the recent one on the Great
Northern will be made, and some OF the
delegates may advocate allowing Broth
erhood men to also become members OF
other railroad organic atoms if they SO
desire.
The question of federating where three
or four roads run parallel or converge
at one point may be brought mp by
Western members. Under such am ar
rangement the three or four roads
would have a joint grievance committee
and would act together when necessary.
Question OF Annual Sessions.
A return to annual sessions may be-
advocated In connection with the pro-
posed reduction of representation, but
the decision Of the convention In this
matter will hinge largely upon the
amount of business that has accumu-
lated for the first biennial session. If
there is more work than can be handled
in the time that can be spared by the
delegates, that would be a strong argu.
ment in favor of annual sessions.
A Trip 10 Duluth and Superior.
Saturday, May 10. a special train pro
vided by the st. Paul and Duluth road
will take the entire party to Duluth and
Superior where citizens are arranging

ing in st. Paul Monday morning, in

f. Calderwood, G. A. Pillsbury, b. f.

Your husbands Mother.

l will not call her your mothcr-in law.
l like to think that she is your mother in
love, writes Ruth Ashmoro in a very ear
nest article on THE Young Wifc's First
Year" in The Ladies' Home Journal. She
is your husbands mother and therefore
yours, for his people have become your
people. There have been vulgar jests, ri
diculous songs and coarse puns about the
husbands mother ever since any of us can
remember but in how many households is
the husbands mother an angel, not in dis
guise but appreciated and lovedS Now,
will you take my advice and call her what
your husband does? VIII you treat her
just as you do your own mother, not be-
ing afraid to tell her of your little affairs,
receiving her as one of your own and max
ing her feel happy in the fact that she has
not lost son, but has gained daughter,
and a loving, considerable daughterp Will
you remember this, tOo-that before you
came your husband was all in oil to his
mother? And sometimes when she comes
to see you won't you leave these two alone
and let them talk together as they did be-
fore the two became trio? Don't make
it evident that you are doing this, but go
off for q little while and attend to some
of your household duties.

CONCERNING INSANITY.
Some of the More Popular Fallacies on the
Subject Exposed.

At the meeting of the Science club DR..
F. B. Wynn read an interesting paper on
Popular Fallacies Concerning Insanity.
The paper was written in a popular vein,
devoid of technicalities, and was enjoyed.
Dr. Wynn spoke from an experience OF
about six years in the hospitals at Logans-
port, Ind, and Dayton, O. He treated
humorously the exaggerated ideas OF In
sanity entertained by most inexperienced
persons and recited incidents of sherlf1s
bringing weak and emaciated persons to
hospitals in heavy manaces. The general
idea that the insane person is possessed
of herculean strength, with wild, glarlnS
eyes, was shown to be in most cases false.
The appearance of the lunatic generally
does not differ materially from that OF
those not considered insane. Under acute
maniacal excitement the power of endur-
ance does seem greater than normal. The
degree of waste, however, is just as great.
That the patients often die Of physical ex-
ertion indicates that the power of endur-
ance is more apparent than real The pro-
portion of violent and dcmonstrative pa
tients found in asylums day after day will
not exceed one to 100 hundred population
Insanity docs not cause as much suffer
ing on the part of the individual as Is
commonly supposed, as an acute attack is
generally supervcned by what might be
termed an exaggerated phlegmatic state.
