rying out the vastest scu1ptural pro-
gramme probably eyer undertaken by
a single ruler. 1t is nothing less than
an ancestral gallery in marble and;
bronze. This will be placed along the
so-called Sieges-Allee, j. e., the avenue,
running down in n straight line from
the column of victory to the Thiergar-
ten, and the gallery will consist of 24
Hohenzollern rulers more or less en-
titled to posthulnous fame, together
with 4s men who distinguished them
selves during their reigns. Each Of the
"a, in fact. will be nanlsed by two
paladins. The last man in this gallery
will be, of course, William I. Four Of
these groups are already near compile

concluded within ten years.

of oxidized bronze, with Neptune in
the center and whole Brood of nymphs

sporting in the pellucid waves. The
project is now to put to other foun-

WORKING WOMEN'S CLUBS
A NEW ORGANIZATION FORMED IN
SALT LAKE.
The Main object Is TO Render AEu-
tual Help-A Meeting Last Even
ing at the Residence of HRS. w.
p. Lynn.

Even in this age of push and rush
there are those who pause and think
of others. This has been illustrated
by several ladies of Salt Lake, who
are organizing a working women S
club. This club is to consist of branches
each having about twenty-five or tflir-
ty members. At present sixty young
women. have sent in their names sig
nifying that they wish to join it.
The club is TO be called the Leal
(Which is the Scotch for faithfully. a
badge with the word ''Leal" will be
worn by each member which will show
at once that the wearer belongs to the
club.
All young women of good character
will be eligible. No distinctions of
caste, creed or color are to enter into
consideration as 70 a woman's fitness
for belonging to this club. Every one
present viii meet her sister ais an
equal and all petty distinctions are to
be left before these portals are en-
tered.
One branch met last evening at the
bone OF Mrs W. P. Lynn. 1t numbers
IL clerks, dressmakers, II house girls,
5 stenographers, laundresses, mil
liners; nurse girls and cham bermaids
have also joined, SO all occupations
were represented. During this even
ing's meeting there was merely an in
formal discussion, but next Tuesday
will be devoted to the election of Off
GERS and other important details.
The main object Of the club is to
render mutual help to women so that
they may break away from petty tram
mels and rise to higher levels. 1t will
be the effort of every one to study and
improve. so that women will really be
the thoughtful, helpful companions
that mems ideals have ever pictured
them to be.

GREAT GATHERING.
Christian Endeavor People to Meet
at Washington.

Christian EndcavOr People to Meet
at Washington.
WASHINGTON, May 26.-It seems
to be assured that the Christian En-
deavor convention, which is to be held
in this city within two months will be
the greatest gathering of the kind
ever held. 1t will be notable for the
number of new features in the pro-
gramme.
1t is proposed to pay particular at
tention to evangehstic work during
the convention. The delegates will go
forth as they did at Boston to the
missions and other evangelistic out
posts and hold services in the remote
and dark corners of the city as well
as In public places where men congre-
gate. For the first time in the history
of these annual gatherings gospel
wagons will be used by the delegates.
An entirely new feature of the pro-
gramme will be daily bible readings
in one of the large churches conducted
by some students of recognized ability.
The junior workers rally, Friday
morning of the convention season,
coincfdent with the three tent ses-
sions, is one more enlargement. One
unique feature will be an open air
demonstrat ton at the foot of the Wash
ington monument There is room at
this place for tens of thousands of
people to congregate. After this ser
vice it is proposed that the endeavorers
march down Pennsylvania avenue to
the capitol, where, with added signifi-
canoe, the good citizenship demonstra-
tion will be continued. The last
novelty, as we'll as one of the greatest,
will be the first convention of the
Worlds Christian Endeavor union.

Branch, q small village south of here,
was. It is reported. the scene of a
wholesale tragedy late last night. The
disturbance began in the forenoon,
when it was learned that Lent's cir
Gus had arrived with beer and whisky
on their floating craft. and were dis
tributing it by the quart to people who
lived along the river. The town mar
shall succeeded in partially checking
the sale of intoxicants for some hours,
but late in the evening the circus EN-
ployees again began their Illicit sale,
and the marshal with a posse repaired
to the scene. The circus gang quickly
gathered about the craft. picking up
poles, sledge hammers stakes and
other articles and made ready for the
posse. The marshal and posse advanc-
ed to the waters edge and hand-to-
hard battle, which lasted fully one
hour, ensued. The number of killed
was reported to be twelve, but seven
only can be accounted for, and the
wounded will number ten. Their
names have not been learned

ADJUSTMENTS.

CONFUSION. The second pro-
duction of this laughabIe comedy was
given before a fair-sized audience at
the Grand last evening. To lengthen
out the bill, Miss Remark and Mr.
Lothian appeared in a curtain raiser
called Husband in Clover" in which
the lady especially appeared to good
advantage. While Confusion" hardly
went with the zest and ginger inpart-
ed to 1T on previous productions in this
city, it rs so clever and unique that it
could not fail to amuse even if it were
in the hands of a less capable COM
pany than that ait the Grand. Miss
Cook, Miss Remark and Miss Truax
rather walked off with the llonors of the
piece. Neither Mr.. King nor MIR. Blake
more brings out all there is in his role,
and the last-named gentleman grows
indistinct in his endeavors to cultivate
a British accent. As for Mr.. King, he
utterly fails to draw out the wealth of
fun there is in the role of Sliggard.
Mr.. Lothian played Mortimer accept
ably. Mr.. Jennings was rather too
grotesque as DR.. Jones, and Miss Henry
played Violet il rather a colorleSs man
ner. The orchestra should be men
toned for an exceptionally good rem
dftion of la Cigale" selections.

New York, March 26.-The specula-
zion today on the stock exchange was
professional in the extreme, and even
at that the dealings were on more
limited scale than for some time past,
and the fluctuations in every instance
nearly narrow. All intervals the trad
ing came to an actual standstill. Busl-
ness in Americans in London, after
the holidays, was on declining trend
the foreign dealers being sympathet-
cally influenced by the change in the
speculative temper here yesterday from
the firm tone that had characterized
the late weak markets.
On the local exchanges the operations
for European account were on both
sides of the market, with most of the
orders, however, to sell. There was
dearth of news bearing generally upon
prices, excepting a few crop reports,
and railroad earnings, and slightly
easier tendency in money rates. rms
last development was largely due to
the apathy in the stock market. The
earnings were mainly favorable, but no
stress was made upon an item of de-
cidedly encouraging character, namely
an increasing movement Of corn yes

staple being on a much larger scale

MEXICAN MATTERS.
Great Deal of Copper Is Being Ex-

A Great Deal of Copper Is Being Ex-
ported.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 26.-Sir
Henry Dering, the English minister
to the Mexican republic, arrived here
last night from the City OF Mexico.
In discussing Mexican affairs he
said: Business conditions are good
in Mexico. Copper is being exported
more than any other mineral product
just at present Americans appear to
have the lead in the smelling indus
tries, while in the manufacture of cot
ton and wooden goods the Mexicans
are making splendid progress Silver
is the money of the country, and the
great premium ON gold is tending to
lessen imports and increase local pro-
ductton of cotton, juta and wooden
goods. The latter are more or less crude
but are meeting the demand of the
people.
