Rebels Fought Hard.

Manila, June 13, 4:40 p. NAT day
light today the rebels at Cayite dropped
two shells from a big smooth bore gun
mounted in front OF the church into the
navy yard. The only damage done was
splintering the top OF the huge spears
on the mole. The gunboats Calloa.
Manila and Mosquito then proceeded to
dismount the gun. After silencing the
big gun at Cayite, the gunboats ran
close along the shore, bombarding the
rebels position. The rebels replied
with rifle fire and with the fire of
small pieces of artillery.
So vigorous was the enemy's fire that
at 9:20 a. m. the gunboat Helena joined
the small gunboats mentioned and the
Princeton. Monterey and Monadnock
from their anchorages dropped occa-
sional big shells among the rebels. They
apparently only served to inci<s the
rebels, as they kept up an incessant
fire of musketry and artillery near the
mouth Of the Zapote river, two miles
north OF Dakor. The rebels were
eventually forced TO abandon their
guns. after holding out for about four
hours, only to be confronted by Gen.
Lawton's force on land and i'm their
rear. where there was heavy fighting.
Beyond the destruction of several
buildings along the water front the
effect OF the bombardment is not
known.

tons, on the shelves.
Mrs. Igleheart submitted figures
which showed that only $4,000 was ap-
propriated last year for the library
and $4,000 of this was needed for current
expenses. leaving no funds whatever
for the purchase of books. She urged
the necessity Of a return to the one
third of. a mill levy which in the first
year of the library's existence gave the
board about 1000.
1t was suggested that club women
from the various organizations arrange
a petition to be presented to the council
TO Which the signatures of all women
interested i'll the growth and prosperity
of the library be appended, and that
the matter he presented in this way.
This plan met with the approval of the
council, and was adopted.

port OF the city kindergartens or to or
ganize a club kindergarten and manage
it by club women.
Mrs. Maynard begged that her COM
mittee be excused from further duty,
and suggested that the method of as
sisting the good work should be deter
mined upon in the council.

Election of Officers.
The election of officers for the ensu-
ing year resulted in the reelection of
Mrs. A V. Taylor of the Woman's club.
who has only served the council for a
few months, as its president Mrs. Tay-
lor was named by the club to fill out an
unexpired term for which Mrs. Gilmer
had been elected. Other officers chosen
were: Recording secretary. Mrs. Anna
S. Young, of the Cleofan; corresponding
secretary and treasurer, Mrs. Pearsall
of the Euquirer's club.
Mrs. c. E. Allen read letter from
Harriet Hicks Hellar OF Omaha, the
great lecturer, on matters relating to
education. Mrs Hellar wrote that she
would be passing through Salt Lake
in July on her way from the n E A .
in Los Angeles, and that she would very
much like to stop off and give two or
three lectures, if the ladies could as
sure her that she would not be at any
particular expense to do SO. She wrote
that she only cared to be guaranteed a
small compensation for her time and
trouble. 1t was felt that it was most
desirable that Mrs. Hellar should be
heard in Salt Lake, Provo and Logan.
but the council hardly felt justified
in undertaking to bring her on. The
matter was left with Mrs. Allen, who
was instructed to write to these outside
towns and secure the sentiment of the
educators as to the feasibility of such
a plan.
In this connection it is interesting to
note the information contained in a
postscript to Mrs. Aliens letter. Mrs.
Hellar writes: II hear that Salt Lake
has secured Frank B. Cooper for its
superintendent. 1 congratulate you. He
is the best school man 1 know"

CLUB WOMEN'S ACTION
ANNUAL MEETING OF THE
COUNCIL OF CLUBS.
Preliminary Steps Taken In the Plans
For a Reception to Superintendent
Cooper-Election of 0ficers-More
Books Needed For Public Library
Cigarette Evil.

If Professor Cooper does not receive
an enthusiastic wlcome from the citi-
zens of Salt Lake when he arrives, it
win not be the fault of the council of
Women's clubs.
The annual meeting of the organiza-
ton occurred yesterday and besides the
election Of officers the most important
matter Of business that came up was
Mrs. Taylor's proposition to extend to
the new superintendent a welcome be-
fitting the occasion of his taking up
the work he has undertaken in this
city.
In the discussion Of the matter which
followed, Mrs. Taylor's well-explained
suggestion, that the reception be I'M
dertaken by the council, the prevailing
sentiment was that Mr.. Cooper ought
10 be greeted upon mis- arrival by the
club women Of the city (who are also
the mothers Of the children who will
be placed in his care) as well as by the
teachers. civil authorities and educa-
tors generally.

purpose between the representatives of
the various club organizations was APP

parent in the final decision of the coun-
ell, the bitterness of the faction that
has stood for the employment of home
talent alone, made itself felt
Mrs. Emmeline 5. Wells was present
and when asked by the chair for an
expression of opinion as to the FEAST
bility Of the plan, assured the ladies
that she was not up on receptions, and
that she really felt that there were al
upon club women, more than they can
keep up with" concluded Mrs. Wells.
Later, when she desired to be excused,
the representative of the Woman's
Press club informed the ladies that she
would favor any plan agreed upon by
the majority.
Favored Home Talent.
Mrs. W. w. Ritter came to express her
views and those of Mrs. Nellie Little
on the subject. She voiced the general
sentiment of the home talent" con-
tingent that so bitterly opposed the
sending out of the state for a new su-
perintendent of schools. Mrs. Ritter
paid her respects to the home produc-
tons in the way of educators that are
among us, but conceded that she knew
by her personal experience that it was
a good thing to get away occasionally
and take a look at the world from a
different point of view.
Before closing her remarks Mrs. Ritter
made it very plain to the ladies that
so long as Mr.. Cooper had been selected
she intended to do her part towards
seeing to it that he is properly received
by the mothers and club women of
Salt Lake.
Mrs. Tibbals, the w. C. It. L. repre-
sentative, most heartily endorsed the
plan and gave her word that the coun-
ell would have the hearty cooperation
of her society.
Mrs. William Igleheart. who was
present for Mrs Eugene Lewis. presi-
dent of the Ladies' Literary club, said
that any plan that would bring edu-
Gators generally and teachers especial
ly in closer touch with the mothers of
the community, met with her unquali-
fled approval
Mrs. Mia Upper Maynard spoke in
the same way, and made some practical
suggestions that were well received.
SO much time had been consumed in
the discussion that it was deemed best
to leave the appointment of the work.
