THE WOMAN'S CLUBS NEW HOUSE.
ladies' who compose It's membership are
among Richmond's most esteemed church
women. They are all ladies OF highest
social standing. and anything that they
would undertake would be assured of
success. morally. and in every other way.
They claim that woman's club was
needed here; that, notwithstanding the
work Of the benevolent societies. the
teas, the germans, etc, there was a
demand among their sex for a place
where the fair ones could assemble and
read and talk end inform themselves.
not upon one special topic. but upon all
matters. 1t was needed for the further
mental development Of the women. Suf-
ficient evidence Of the potency Of the
club here is 10 be found in the fact
that about one hundred OF Richmond's
most prominent women became members
of II lust as soon as the plans were form
ulated and made known.
WHY THE NEED WAS FELT.
One well-known society lady, speaking
of the club to a Dispatch reporter. said:
"Wby Is the need felt so keenly? Simply
bscause new manner OF living has
evolved from existing conditions. The
old-fashioned hospitality is gone. with
its slaves and wealth. No longer does
a choice coterie collect at some favored
haunt. No longer is some darling Of a

at the club a few days ago 1t was just
undergoing the moving process, ana seVc-
raj of the ladies, including Mrs. Il. H..
Lewis, the efficient president OF the or
ganization, were found hard AT work
strengthening up things and getting the
premises into condition for the reception
Of the furniture. These members spoke
most encouragingly Of the prospects OF the
Woman's Club, and were quite as enthu-
siastlc Ia this respect as was ever any
member Of the Westmoreland or Com
monwealth in behalf OF his own club. The
first board meeting OF the Womans Club
IN It's new home was held on Thursday
afternoon.
ORGANIZATION OF THE CLUB.
Just about year ago Richmond was
stirred up with much mysterious rumor
about the formation here Of a club for
ladies. Some looked upon the report as
visionary and ridiculous. Others patron
izingly pitied the movement, while still
others encouraged IL, and so its devo-
tees increased. Meanwhile fourteen wo-
men-the Dispatch uses that good old
word women" because IL signifies char
acter and strengthened often. talked a
great DEAL devised a great many things,
and planned much over the matter OF
organizing the contemplated club. These
fourteen pioneers In the work became the
first Board OF Governors OF the club and
were Mesdames L. L. Lewis Beverly 3.
Munford. Virginia Morgan Robinson, Vir-
gnius Newton, Charles Davenport, Bry-
don Tenant, J. s. Wexford. Misses Maria
Blair Gussie Danue. Jane Rutherford
Mamie Winston, Mary Cameron, Mary
Lyons. and Frances Scott. Shortly after
the formation OF the organization the an
nouncement was made that the club
rooms were open for the members. The
incredulous could hardly realize that a
wonan's club had really been established
right here in this pious community. More
than one husband, brother. or father look
cd chilled when some fair one OF his fami-
" declared herself TO be q member OF

kind, had to submit TO the powers that

self. There he was employed as q civil
engineer by the Spring Valley Water
company. In March, 1889. he returned
to the island kingdom, leaving his wife
and child behind, and o few months
later Mrs. Wilcox returned TO her par
ents in Italy.
Being disappointed by his reception
in Honolulu, Wilcox at once began plot
ting with Liliuokalani. the heiress to
the throne, for the overthrow OF the
king and the restoration of the old auto
cratic constitution. Kalakaua. learning
of this. sent for Wilcox and bought
him over to his side. He told Wilcox
that he. too. was opposed to the existing
constitution, and if Wilcox wanted a
revolution TO go ahead, and he would
stand by him. To this Wilcox assented,
but when the revolt was sprung Kala-
kaua turned on him, and the outbreak
was quickly suppressed with the aid of
the United States warship Adams.
In this outbreak seven Of Wilcox's
followers were killed and about a dozen
wounded. At the time of the overthrow
of L~iliuokalani he posed as q violent an
nexationist, and so continued until he
failed to get the Office he sought. Since
then he has been turbulent and eeditious,
and the recent revolt was che result of.
his discomfort.
