Chicago women's Enterprise.

While Chicago has not gone ahead of
New York in its population, doubtless
its women feel that they have surpass.
ed New York women in the establish
ment of the already famous Chicago
Womans Athletic club. Less than
year ago the enterprise was talked of,
and today Il perfectly appointed club
house. with gymnasium and swimming
pool, is opened at 1870 Michigan ave
nue., opposite the Art building. The
dues have something of the western
air about them, but then the club is
one which calls for deal of money to
conduct it. The entrance fee is 500
and the annual dues $40. The limit of
membership is 500, and already there
is long waiting list. Mrs. Pauline
Henriette Lyon was the spirit of the
undertaking. The officers are: Mrs.
l.. ID. Armour, Sr., president; Mrs.
William h. Leeds, treasurer; Mrs
Lyon, secretary. with a board of eight
directors. No spirituous liquors of any
kind are permitted in the establish
ment, and card playing Is likewise
tabooed. Brooklyn Citizen.
