Women'S Club.

1t is only little more than thirty
one years since Sorosis, the mother
clubs, was organized in New York.
Within the brief period OF three de-
cades the club idea has expanded until
it has became international in in
luence and universal in adoption. The
conferences of the council of the Cen
eral Federation of Women's clubs now
being held in Philadelphia indicate
the numerical strength to which the
movement has attained and the far
reaching sway of its activities.
The federation has linked together
in organic unity 2,120 clubs which are
registered in America alone. These
represents fully 100000 women of the
clubs in Europe, South America and
Australia which belong to the fedora
ton.
But not in the point of numb ers only
has the development been conspicuous
ly successful. The reception which the
delegates of the federation received in
Philadelphia yesterday is significant of
the changed attitude of the popular
mind toward the woman's club. When
Scrolls was organized in 1868 it aroused a
storm of protest and censure. Alice and
Phoebe Carey, Jennie, June, Kate
Field and others of its organizers were
mercilessly caricatured. They were
depicted in cartoons with feet on the
table surrounded by bottles and glasses
and clouds of tobacco smoke Today
the inspiring record which is present
ed by the General Federation of Wo-
mems clubs demonstrates that the club
idea among women of intelligence has
come to stay, and: that whatever
prejudices may still linger
against 1t will be soon dispelled. The
great movement among women for Or
ganization is one of the conspicuous
signs of the times, and it has helped
much to enlarge and dignity woman's
sphere

Tongues of the Car Fam;,x

The tongues of the cat family are
covered with recurring spines. In the
common domestic cat these are small.
but sufficiently we'll developed to give
the tongue a feeling of roughness. But
In the lion and tiger the spines are
strong enough to enable the animal to

I'M athletics Mr.. McRae WAS a leader

In athletics MI. McRae was a leader
for a long time and was a member Of
the hose teams which made records not
only at local Fourth Of July contests,
but at other places and was Spike" for
many of the teams which made records
for fast time.
Many old time members Of the Lara
mic fire department will remember the
great contests ten to fifteen years ago,
and during that time No. 3's team
broke the record at Georgetown, Colo,
in 1886, in the wei test, making 1t in
30k seconds or 2 seconds better than
the Colorado record. They also ran in
races at Fort Collins and Cheyenne, at
the latter place breaking the Wyoming
straightaway record by making the run
in "a seconds.
1t was during these days that Hon.
Otto Gramm was chief Of the fire de-
partment and had charge OF the team,
in which Mr.. McRae ran, and many are
the Gales told about those days by the
NtlSl al NoluiISSl hlCLlCh.
Mr.. Gramm has presented the de-
partment with a check for $25 which
was received by Chief Bower this morn
ing, for it's prompt and efficient re-
Spouse at the fire at the rolling mill
this week. The members all express
their hearty appreciation Of this sub
stantial aid from their veteran chief
who has done so much for the depart
ment in many ways.
Mr.. McRae stated today that there
were a number Of important matters
which, during his term OF Office he
would endeavor to carry out, the prin-
cipal one of these being to restore the
old fraternal feeling among the com
panies to take the place of the friction
which has come up at times to the in
jury of all concerned. He feels that 6
healthy, good-natured rivalry will in
crease the interest Of members and the
attendance at meetings and fires ant
restore the department to Its old-tim,
basis.
Among the other matters to b,
brought up also is the condition Of thu
Second and Third ward hose houses
panies, etc.
1t is hoped that the department ma!
be able to get a cushion or pneumati,

A SERIOUS INJURY.

Mr.. and Mrs. A. H. Bath returned
from Denver last night, where they
spent a week, Mrs. Bath going there to
consult a surgeon concerning a knee
injury, and found that she could Sc
cure no relief either by an operation
or other treatment. The injury was

horseback riding near her ranch on the
Little Laramie, the horse falling on her
while running, Mrs. Bath sustaining a
severe fracture Of the bones at the
knee. Although almost helpless she
remounted her horse and rode TO the
ranch in a fainting condition and was
brought to town for treatment. The
injury confined her to her bed for many
long weeks and developing an abscess,
pieces of splintered bone being taken
out from time to time, the knee finally
healing up and becoming permanently
stiff in a bent position.
Mrs. Bath hoped that an operation
hight give relief but vas advised not
to undertake it.
