Coast. AS an issue ii was as dangerous
as 1t was exciting. Men of all parties
were ciamuring against the Celestials, and

clared that the chief tenet in his political

Three Important Movements Set ON
Foot by the Chicago Conference
Yesterday.
CHICAGO, June 12.-At to-day's ses-
sion of the national conference of Jew
ish Charities, Morris Goldstein, of Gin
cinnati, Ohio, read a paper on causes
of poverty and the remedial effects OF
organized charity" and DR.. Lee K.
Frankel, Of New York, spoke on Tub
erculosis as Affecting Jewish Char
tiles"
The committee on friendly visiting
then delivered it's report. This was
followed by a number of papers touch
ing the same subject. Among those
who submitted papers were DR.. E. G..
Hirscb, OF Chicago; Miss Hannah
Masks, of Cincinnati, and DR.. l.. K.
Frankel. OF New York.
Since the conference met yesterday
three movements of Importance have
been taken up. They are:
The cooperation of all charity and
philanthropic organizations for the
establishment of nsfional hospitals and
colonies located in Colorado. Califor-
MIA and Texas for the care and treat
ment of persons suffering from con-
sumption.
An organized effort to relieve the
congested centers in the large cities by
sending poor families to smaller towns
and farming districts, where better OPP
portunjties for employment amid more
healthful surroundings exist.
Abolish the practice of providing ap-
plicants with transportation to relieve
one community from their support by
shifting the responsibility TO another.
All three of the propositions were
received by the delegates with enthus-
iastic approval, and it is probable that
definite plans will be formulated before
the conference adjourns tomorrow to
put them into operation.

WHY WOMEN GO bSTRAY.
THE TURNING POINT IN A
WOMAN'S LIFE.

There comes time in every woman S
life when she reaches turning point
in her career Upon the step she takes
at this hour of crisis her whole future
will depend. She may go forward into
a future ever fairer with every season.
She may be "the joyful mother OF chill
dren." She may grow old surrounded
by a stalwart guard of knightly sons.
She may hear the babble of grandchil-
dren, and move through life's autumn
centered in love and reverence, always
beautiful and beloved, gaining some
new charm with every season.
That is one side of the story.
The other side is infinitely sad. 1t
shows a woman whose feet have left
the path of health and happiness. Sick
ness marks the lean form and lines the
faded face. Children have come, but
brought no happiness. Such as have
struggled to manhood or womanhood
are narrow of chest and pinched of face.
They are peevish, fretful men or wom-
en-, as they were peeyish, fretful chill
dren.
Which Way, Womenf
Which way are you going? Those
two women are types of the two great
divisions of women; the healthy and
happy women and the women who are
sickly and miserable. When it is re-
membered that almost every woman
might be well and happy, we look with
wonder on the thousands of sickly
women around us. What has turned

Special to the Register.
CHARLESTON, w Va, June H.
State Auditor L. M. LaFOllette. who
expects to be renominated by the Re-
publican State convention for the Of
nee he now holds, says that the re-
ports published in the newspapers
to the effect that he has formed a COM
bination with ]. Il. Hall and that they
will pool their strength in the State
convention is erroneous. Mr.. LaFol-
lette says he has not formed a COM
bination with any man, will not form
any and that it is entirely unneces-
sary for him to do SO. He says he
will get the nomination for Auditor
on the Republican ticket wholly upon
his merits. He says the Sheriffs of
the several counties, the banks and
other persons with whom he has done
business since he has been in Office are
for him, and will insist upon his re-
nomination.
He disputes the correctness of the
assertion that Arnold G. Scherr will
have most of the delegates of the Sec
OI1 0Ou5l GSotO4dl A1DLlltl. MI. uGl-
zendanner and Mr.. SWisher, of Jeffer-
son and Marion counties respectively,
will each have the delegation of his
county, and he thinks he will have
quite as many votes in the other coun-
ties of the Second district as Mr.
Scherr. He claims a majority of the
delegates from the Third and Fourth
districts, and is altogether satisfied
with the outlook and confident of his
denomination. OF the 1850 delegates
of which the State convention will be
composed, only 125 have been in
structed for anybody.
Mr. LaFollette makes the same ar
gument against Halls nomination that
is made by Mr.. Scherr, namely, that
the First district already has more
than her share of the spoils. there be-
ing at least twenty-seven citizens OF
Ohio county holding federal appoint
ments, besides the Governor and one
of the United States Senators coming
from that county.
Mr.. LaFollette says it will be mar
rowed down to square three-cornered
fight in the convention for the nomin-
alton, and he would not think Of trad
ing his chances for those of either of
the other candidates.
