Current Topics Club

The Current Topics class met as usual
at SIS Fremont avenue at 10 O'clock on
Thursday The chief subject for dis
cussion was the new cabinet. Bio
graphical sketches were given by differ
ent members, of the class without papers
or notes, and the duties of each cabinet
officer were specified. The Cuban and
Cretan situations, the various bills be-
fore congress, the Hawaiian cable, and
many literary news Items were talked
over. The morning closed with game
of twenty questions with one word an
swers. The answers were names Of per-
sons mentioned prominently In the pa
pers during the week preceding the
meeting. Only two of the ladies could
give the name of the referee in the Fltz-
simmons Corbett fight, so the club can
hardly be said to be up to date. although
the majority of them could give the
grand old man of Crete, the minister
from Venezuela, the president of the
Greater Republic of Central America,
and the secretary to the president with
out difficulty The ladies' having special
work for the club last week were Mines
Rice, Fay, McNulty. Hibbard, Ham
mond, Steere, and Misses Maurice and
Monroe.
The literature of the day abounds in
discussions of abor problems. monetary
questions, emigration, treatment of
criminals and paupers. protective tariff
or free trade, and international arbitra-
tlon, and challenges thorough UNDER
standing of underlying principles. The
object of this club is to serve as an aid
to this wise thought and thorough un-
derstanding.
