were eleven charter members. who have for the
most part remained In the club. Now there are
forty active and nearly two hundred and fifty asso-

The first idea in starting this movement was the
formation OF parties for outdoor work. This was
carried out and other ways Of pursuing art studies
introduced Bimonthly lectures are given and
meetings and exhibitions are frequently held.
The quarters OF club large and well
arranged in every way. The first rooms occupied

many a soldier boy will ind his three pairs OF
stockings allowed for the first six months but
things 'shreds, II not patches, long before the
six months have rolled by. Those who remember
the horribly heavy, heating ungainly woolen

GENERAL FEATURES OF STRIKE.

Boston, January 24.-The principal
events in the industrial situation in New
England today, were first, the return Of
the striking workmen of the Queen City
mills at Burlington, VT, secondly, the
strike of those employed in the spinning
department of mill of the Fall River
Iron company, and thirdly the refusal of
the weavers union of Fall River by vote
of 1T to IA to allow the King Philip
mill weavers to strike. The contention
in this last incident is the most interest-
ing. The refusal was given On the ground
that all other operatives have accepted
the same cut down of IL 10 per cent, and
such a strike would weaken the union,
Aside from these events the situation in
other mills centers remained unchanged,
The Queen City mills workmen who led
the revolt against the lower scale of
prices, two weeks ago, returned to work
today, accepting the reduction. The
only apparent result of the strike there
has been that the weavers, who had no
organization when they went out have
formed permanent union.
