her with expressions that indicated their joy that a southern woman, Georgia wo- man, an Atlanta woman, and their leader had been chosen from gathering or many thousands to represent the great club movement With that suavty and grace that characterizes Mrs. Lowe on all oc- casions, she received congratulations yes- terday> and had something bright or hu- morous to say to every man and woman wtho approached her with outstretched hands. She was Joking remarkably well gowned in an organdie of white showing figures in delicate sprays of flowers. It was trimmed in black lace and the cor sage finished with jabct bow of pale colored ribbons It was a source of happi- ness to see that her daughter, Mrs. J. w. English, was able to be present at the re- ception, this being her first appearance socially since her critical illness. She wore a lovely white organdie trimmed in pale blue ribbons.
 Mrs Heber Reed, acting president of the Atlanta Woman's club, did the honors of the occasion yesterday afternoon and was assisted by number of the most prominent women of the club. It was notable fact that the women present yesterday included women of every interest in life; there were those literary and artistics, number in professional life, those welded to the club movement, and a number of women whom the world is pleased to term "society wo- men,"
 There Is no doubt that the election of Mrs Lowe to the national presidency win at once give an impetus to club life in the south and that Atlanta giving the federal tion its leader will become famous for it's loyal club women.

 There was not happier or more enthu- siastic gathering in Atlanta yesterday than the party of ladies assembled at the Wo- mans club yesterday afternoon to do hon. or to Mrs. Lowe, president of the general federation. Not only the members of all the federated clubs in the city were pres ent, but the friends of Mrs Lowe, both ladies and gentlemen not within the club realms were present. They called between the hours of and o'clock, and found the club rooms true to the patriotism of the times, radiant in the national colors. Flags of all sizes were gracefully used on all sides and formed graceful portiere effect over each window. Flowers of beauty and fragrance adorned the cabinets and in the refreshment room there was an exquisite decoration of sweet peas. During the re- option the orchestra discoursed delight full musical programme and in every re- spect the entertainment was one memor- able in the history of the club. The dis tinguished guest of honor scarcely three years ago formed the Atlanta Womans club. subsequently, she organized the Geor- gia federation, and yesterday, as the pre- siding officer of an organization represent ed by over half million women, she re- ceived the congratulations of her enthusi- astlc friends.

Satin and silk brocacded in gold or silver thread will be used for many of these eighteenth century frocks, and they set off fine jewels to great effect.

LOSSES IN BIG BATTLES.
santiogo Fatalities Small by Comparison
 With Civil War Fights.

From the New York Sun.
 As compared with the loss inflicted on the United States forces by the Confed- crates in the great battles of the civil war. the loss at Santiago Is small, when the fact is taken into consideration that our forces in the Cuban battle were as- saulting a fortified position of the enemy. In all counting 5000 Cubans engaged, there were approximately 24,0O0 troops opposed to the Spaniards. If there have been as many as 800 casualties from wounds, heat prostrations and capture, that would be 8 1-3 per cent.

The BurIington's New Trains

Railroad men who have had the
privilege of examining the four
new trains which the Burlington
Route, on the 1st of May, placed
in service between Denver and
Chicago say they are as magniii-
Gently equipped as any in the
country-that even the famous
limited expresses between Chicago
and New York are not handsomer
or more luxurious. Every car is
wide vestibuled, and was built es-
pecially for the Burlington Route.
The four trains are identical in
appearance and arrangement
Each is composed of buffet
smoking-librarycar, palace sleep
ing-car, and two reclining-chair
cars. The Observation-Disclosures
car is something new for Denver
Chicago line. 1t is veritable
clubhouse on wheels, where one
may read, write, smoke, talk or
play cards, while travelling at the
rate of fifty miles an hour. 1t is
handsomely carpeted and furnish
ed with settees, cushioned easy
chairs, lavatory, a writing-desk
a compartment for card-players,
and a well-stocked buffet. The
current periodicals and news
papers are on file, and carefully
selected library is provided for the
free use of passengers. The sleep
ing car is gem, and the chair
and dining-cars are in every way
worthy of the train of which they
form an important part.
The Burlington Route takes
palatial trains through to Omaha
and Chicago in marvellously quick
time. Leaving Denver at $3.50
a. m. today on one of them you
are landed in Chicago at 2:l5 to-
morrow afternoon, there making
close connections with trains for
all points east The running time
from Denver to Chicago is only
twenty-seven and three-quarter
hours. just how fast that is will
be best understood when it is
stated that tits almost five hours
faster than the fastest schedule
