SucceHs.

Success.
The members Of Pressmen's Council, No.

evening and entertained large number Of
invited guests at banquet given on an
elaborate scale at Freund's. The organiza-

braced such energy that the baby since
then has been moving to the front right
along with unusual success. New Year
eve minstrel entertainment and dance
was attempted, and last evening marked
the first annual banquet. 1t was o'clock
when the president, Mr.. A. E. Sardo led
the way to the handsomely decorated
tables, and, after few remarks, every
body was directed to enjoy himself, and
1t was apparent that the injunction was
carried out
When cigars had been lighted those who
partic ,pated in the minstrel performance
repeated the numbers given at that time
and were rewarded with loud applause. In
addition, speeches were made, rectations
given, and general jollity .reigned until near
midnight when the party adjourned.
The success Of the banquet was in large
part due to the efforts of the committee
consisting of Messrs. J. J. Callahan, James
and Finley S. Hayes. The latter was in all
parts of the room at once and inspired
much mirth. Handsome souvenir menu
cards were provided.

MISS ANTHONY,S HOPES.

she THINKS reporters Know More
About Women Than Formerly. ,-sa
Miss Anthony received call at the Arno
from Minister Pioda of Switzerland, who
said 'he came to pay his respects and tell
her how much he admired her persever-
ance''
He also said they were much Interested
in the Suffrage question in Switzerland,
and it would not be long before they took
1t up there.
Miss Anthony said in discussing the sit
uation that the suffragists hoped great
things from this convention. On the 2Sth
they are to have hearing before both
the Senate and the House. The six Sena-
tors from the states where suffrage has
already been granted are, she said, with
them, both officially and Intellectually
each time she came to Congress there were
a Few set of men, who were like a set of
sci ool boys to her, for they had, practi-
cally, to be educated up to the question
ever, good results would come from this
meeting, not that she expected the bill to
he passed this session, but 1t would be
brought up for argument, which meant
cate not only the statesmen but the public
On the question, and show that the young
generation of both cultivated men and
women are with them.
Miss Anthony will act as chairman be-
fore one committee and Rev. Anna Shaw
before the other. There will be forty fe-
male suffragists present also, from diff
ferent states, who will be women of the
present day. IT remember" said Miss
Anthony, years ago when came to Wash
ington in a brand-new silk gown made in
latest fashion some of the reporters in
speaking of me said I appeared in a faded
alpaca gown. The reporters of the present
day make no such mistakes. They can
write fashion article as well as their
sister scribes and will have no cause for
accusing the present suffragists of being
behind times in attire, for some of our
also gratified to find SO many young men
interested in the cause.''

New York Public Libraries.

The facts which The Book Buyer pre-
sents relating to the circulation of books
in New York city through free circulat-
ing libraries cannot be questioned. Scant
as is the aggregate number of books TAX
en-, when compared with the popula-
ton, it is nevertheless satisfactory to
learn that there are some few free libra
ries which can show that, as to readers,
they have more. The following is from
The Book Buyers article:
How woefully New York is behind
other cities of the country in bringing
books within reach of the masses is seen
from a comparison of the free circulat-
ing library systems Last year, for ex.
ample, there was q circulation in New
York Of something over 1000, 600 vol
umes by libraries that received total
appropriation from the city Of $65, 900.
In the Same year the Boston Public
library circulated $50, 900 volumes and
received $175, 900 from the city, the
Chicago Public library circulated l, 150,-
coo volumes (the passion for reading
being more general even than in Bos-
6on) and received S124,O0O, the Cleve-
land Public library circulated 500, 900
volumes and received 100000, and the

luxury of Bankruptcy.

"Why don t you go into bankruptcy?''
asked Judge Emden Of the Lambeth
county court, when Mr. Casswell, a
sausage manufacturer of Camberwell,
candidly admitted that he could not pay
his debts except by small installments.
II am poor man and can't afford it, =
replied the latter, who seemed to regard
his zhoror's question as tantamount to
asking a man with only twopence in his
pocket why he did not treat himself to
turtle soup and milk punch. Such lux
uries as bankruptcy are not meant for
the poor, and he sighed as he added.
''You can't become bankrupt unless you
have money All, yes, replied bis
honor, quite true! A man in your po-
sition cannot indulge in the luxury Of
bankruptcy. So the unfortunate sau-
sage maker was ordered to ply up al
the rate Of 0 shillings per month or g,
