convictions, but the national council
was less explicit. After debating the
resolution on this subject five hours
there was DO doubt that the majority Of
the delegates were opposed to the seat
ing Of Roberts. But the council claims
to be the most liberal woman's organiza.
ton in the world, and az there we're ten
Mormon women among the delegates,
two Of whom were daughters Of Brig
ham Young. the majority resolution
which covered the wide world Of law
breakers was carried, leaving out all
personalities. Harmony with a big II
did not prevail during the lively debate
on this resolution. The following is the
resolution adopted: "That no person
shall be allowed to hold place in u
law abiding body when law breaker

This depression from the report of the
doings Of the recent council lie because
this subject is just now matter Of local
interest to Lincoln readers and all ia.
formation In regard to this organization
is desirable. The subjects discussed at
the triennisl covered the whole world of
civic, military. religious, political and
educational life. The Womsn's Relief
Corps. auxiliary to the Grand Army OF
the Republic. discussed patriotism and
ali its kindred subjects through it's
national president, Mrs. Flo Jamison
Miller. Mrs. j. Ellen Foster presented
the Issues Of the Woman's National Re-
publican association. The National
Council OF Jewish Women was repre-
sented by Mrs. Solomon Of Chicago.
Woman's suffrage by Susan B. Anthony.
The National w. G. T. u, the National
Purity Lesgue and the A nti. Vivisection
society were represented. The Univer'

Other organizations represented were
the National Association Of Women
8 enogrsphers. Supreme HE Rathbone
Sisters and twenty other organizations.
At the close Of her report on DELHI
quent and dependant children Mrs.

applicable to any locality, viz:
/. That every woman find out how

A very pleasant incident connected
with the council was an impromptu re.

thony, whose uniform dress of rich
black silk and red shawl have all but
cannonized her, because people who have
never seen her could cloth her picture
thus and remember always. February

turned her once brown and abundant
hair silvery white, but have abated
not one bit her spirit or sprigh tliness.
Sixty years ago Miss Anthony had her
picture taken, and il somebody were to

brown is all the change that would need
to be done to the hair, for she never has
changed the style OF it. ALFRED in

handsome red shawl over her shapely
shoulders, and some fine lace at her
throat and wrists, she received con.

The ternatiOnaI council will be held In

mittee OF the United States council has
nominated Mrs. Sewell for president OF
that body. This nomination is said to
be tantamount to an election, az tho

great international council held in
Washington in 1883. Its first president
was MiIlicent Garrett Fawcett Of Eng.

president at large, Its second president,
now completing her five years. term, is
Lady Aberdeen, and Mrs. Sewell is vice

When we stop to consider the many
phases Of practical work undertaken by
womaL's clubs it would seem that neary
every field had been entered by these
energetic workers. The club IS their
school, their place OF preparation for the
various duties which they are 80 unset
fishly assuming. Most Of these lines of
work have become familiar to us by
name at least and each and every one
command themselves to club women.
But the woman's club OF Pedea, Pa, has

This club has arranged q nurses class
for its members. The lessons will be
given weekly by an experienced physi.
clan, the regular course to cover two
years study. The following account
from the Bazaar gives in detail the in.
estimabls knowledge to be gained by
the members Of this department.
"There have been 80 far instructions
in bathing. bsndsging, the taking OF
pulse, respiration, temperature, keeping

and similar general knowledge. The
course will include obstetrics, with prsc.
tice in tho care OF infants. invalid cook.

tsgious diseases. Much OF the instruc.
ton that will be given cannot be oh.
tanned outside OF hospital. BY way of
special advantage trained nurse from
some hospital gives q demonstration At
nearly every lesson.
"The members Of the class fiud that
the knowledge they gain is of great
value at home, and when they become
more skilled they have pledged them.

poor Of the town az they are needed.
The plan seems an admirable one and
worthy of repetition in other places

A Delaware Opinion.

"When Charles Mortimer came to
Wilmington last year few people in
this city knew him or his plays. He
gave series of high class comedies
and dramas and before the week was
concluded the audience had grown
from fair-sized opening to the limit
Of the Grand's seating capacity. Last
evening this popular actor opened a
return engagement in Heart of
Gold," and that he and his associates
had played their way into the hearts
of the people was demonstrated by the
enthusiasm and the s. r. o. audience
that greeted them. We can only add
the performance was better than ever
and that means another big week.

Base Rail- Men viii Make Out Line of
Campaign This afternoon in Chapel
Hall-A Few Notes.

The base ball men Of the UniFer-
sity will meet this afternoon in Chapel
Hall to look over the plans for the
coming season and take whatever
steps may be necessary to get out the
best team of the University's history.
Manager Sweeneyis making up a t1ne
schedule and the men are expected to
have very nice time this season.
They have several trips ahead of them.
The base ball material is very good
in school and the team is expected to
be very warm number. Prof. Printz
is going to take charge of them and
give them indoor work something
that has never been done before with
the same kind of teams.
An entertainment of some kind for
the benefit of the team may be given
in the near future. The town people
expect to see good team and will of
course support it loyalty What the
students will do is as usual problem
atical. 1t is thought however that
the chronic knockers will continue
their cheerful line of action and kill
all efforts at a first class team if
possible.

Portrait Swindlers.

A number of persons in a nearby
state, expected to give Christmas
presents to their friends in the
shape of crayon portraits
They had given orders for pictures
to two young men in the early part
of December. One price for the
work was $3.50 to be paid on deliv-
cry, but cash payment of $3.50
entitled the customer to receive a
picture when done. The saving of
the dollar caused some to pay cash
and they now regret it, because they
have seen no picture, although
Christmas has passed.
