SECOND DAY.

Milwaukee,, June 6.-The second day
Of the club women's biennial convention
opened with a steady rain. Delegates
who left their short skirts at home and
are thus wary about venturing out to
the convention halls filed the hotel cor.
ridors to discuss the live Issues Of the
hour. The ticket made out late last
night with Mrs. Lowe for president and
Mrs. Dennison for vice president was a
surprise to many, after Mrs. loves re-
fusals, but there seems to be an impress
sion the ticket will carry. The question
OF reorganization was made the first
or Ter Of business at the regular session
today. Mrs. Horace Brock Of Pennsyl-
vania, leader OF the reorganization
forces, started the debate. This Discus
sion gave way to the education session
at ten o'clock, but was considered again
in the afternoon.
Reorganization, however. has shrunk
into insigniicance beside the color quee.
ton. After stormy conference the OK.
ecutive board declared that Mrs. Ruffip.
d ,legate from the New Era, negro wo-
name club 10 Boston, would not be rec
ognized in that capacity. In brief, the

have trunk in my room full Of doll
dresses" And five minutes later they
exchanged rooms; it was easier than to
move the trunks. and there was no time
to spare.
John S. Runyon, depot baggage mas
ter at the union passenger station, said
that the average number of trunks to
each club woman was two. Three ex-
ira men were engaged at this station to
take care Of the extra work incurred by
the coming Of the club women and their
Saratoga trunks from all parts of the
country. No attempt was made to
handle the large amount Of baggage in
the usual room set aside for that pur.
pose in the station. but shed was put
up on the platform. The various pack
ages were arranged according to number

So far, Buffalo is the only city to bid
for the next convention. The feeling is

hostess, ss the west has had it's own

wsukee men have been putting on ART
and claiming fishing engagements fol
this week, but the scales have now
fallen from their eyes. Some Of the
members o. the local reception COM
mittees are nov talking Of taking the
men at their word and barring them
out. But, then. some of the club women
have met some OF these young men and
have found them quite interesting
men. So. 10 the spirit Of true hospital
ity, the ignorant men creatures will be
forgiven and allowed to come back.
There are many things which it would
pay men to study in this gathering Of
women. One of these lie the easy way
10 which the brainy leaders and their
workers have mastered the fine points
Of the political game. The politicians
warm handshake, the winning smile, the
confidential conference and the shrewd
glance were all used with telling effect
among the delegates in the Plsnkinton
rotunda this afternoon and evening.
Down at the passenger stations of the
railroads double force of men tugged
all day with something new in the con-

There were mountains OF trunks and 10.
coming trains added to the number
faster than they could be hauled away.
There were all kinds and varieties Of
trunke, but there was general tend.
epcy toward the Brobdingnagian Sara
toga. Some Of these trunks would have
made neat summer resort cottages, and
the baggage men snorted and said things
when they loaded them on the wagons
for delivery at the hotels. And being
men. lacking in executive capacity OF q
higher order, they mixed these trunks
up occasionally. 30 there were troubles
and tears in many rooms at the hotels
and later on irate women breathing we'll

from the etate OF Massachusetts, and
from the New England Woman's Press
association. In these two official capsc.
titles she is accorded her seat in the con-

matter Of principle to see that she and
her race have justice, and she stands
for the New Era club backed by Massa
chusetts clubdom. She is Of middle age
and wears her white hair in pompadour.
Her face is Of deep olive complexion.
Her personality is pleasing and intellect
ual. In an interview Mrs. Rufin said:
my mother was a white woman and
my father blending OF French and In

farther back. But stand as colored
woman and whatever have Of courage,
energy, determination or small talents lie

beneficial effects of club life for women,

AMONG HOME MINERS.
Progress Made By Prospectors Now H.
yading New Districts About Santa Fe.

Some pieces of the ore brought in
from above Monument Rock by Cyrus
Smith and Warren Reynolds were
roasted in a blacksmith's forge yester-
day and came out showing many Bills
tiers of copper. If the assays on this ore
turn out as things now promise, this
find may prove a very important
to be fully 80 feet wide, and the ledge
copper stained for a width Of 200 feet.
The above named p%rospectors left again
yesterday for the Santa Fe mountains.
Santa Fe business men are quite dis
posed to provide the 'sinews of war;
for aiding prospectors in opening claims
in the neighboring districts. A pros
pector brought in samples from two
claims situated within four and six
miles of town yesterday, and had no
difficulty in raising a grub stake which
will enable him to do more than the
assessment work. Samples of the rock
were expressed to Burlingame to-day.
George T. Gibbany was up from Ger
rillos yesterday, comforting with mine
owners about working owe several old
dumps of mines in that district. He Is
what the miners down in Socorro and
Sierra counties term "a chloride man,"
and is said to have been highly success
full in getting good values out of many
old dumps down there by using some
secret process Of his own in working
them over. He is now located at Ger
rillos, which he considers a good field
for his special line of work.
The five miners employed at the Mon
tezuma property received their month
ly pay checks yesterday, and Foreman
Tom Reynolds came in and took out a
wagon load of supplies, powder, fuse.
etc. AS soon as the tunnel floor can be
hauled up the tram will be put in and
a shaft sunk 100 feet on the vein. The
mine continues to make a good showing.
An assay Office at Santa Fe is a cry
ing need of the times. Samples of rock
from the adjacent hills are now being
sent abroad daily for analysis.
G. D. Jordan, of Red River, and Ed
ward Haynes have decided to put on
several men and open up the quartz
ledge they staked off near Perry's
ranch last Sunday. The work will COM
mence tomorrow under the supervision
of Mr.. Jordan.
On his recent trip to Ojo Caliente DR..
Massie secured some excellent samples
of mica, which he ID having examined
