women.s clubs Expensive.

Being a club woman is not a cheap
dissipation alothough one might think
it was, considering how little ease and
comfort women derive from their clubs.
A mans club furnishes the best of every
thing at the least expense and the man
who makes use of all the privileges of
his club gets more creature comfort i'll
minute than Mrs. President or Miss
Chairman gets in five years from all the
dozen or more organizations of which
she is member Perhaps it lis right
that the woman's club does cost some
thing, even if it doesn't give much in re-
turn. 1t helps her to square accounts
with man, for It's only a few years ago
that woman bewailed her fate when mar
ried to a clubman. His club Kept him
away from her and cost so much. She
said. Now she can have her revenge.
If she abSentS herself from home and
runs out of FUNDS before her next quar-
terS allowance is due, Why she has an
eXcuse-and what more forcible weapon
it is said that there is one woman
who pays annually in club dues nearly
$l50, and that sum does not represent
one-Quarter of the cost of the club me-
She is the wife of a well-to-do man, who
is also philosopher, and ne believes
that harmless fads keep women out of
mischief-not particularly profound
or subtle sentiment, but quite profound
enoughto answer the purpose. This won1-
ans clubs do not include q single purely
social organization such as dancing
class, nor is she member of an athletic
association or a suffrage club. She has
become well Known through her catholic
membership, but she doesn't seem TO get
much fun out of club life.
SorcsiS is not a trif1ing matter in the
way of expense. 1t costs SIS to get into
the charmed circle to begin with. Then
the club badge costs S. more. Badges
count up. too. They get lost and get
broken. Fancy a man going round dec
odated with his club badges He'd look

BASKET BALL is POPULAR.
Seven GytriIs of the Central High
Desire To Play.

Seven GytriIs of the Central High
Desire To Play.
Seventy girls want to play basket ball
at the Central high school. Thirteen will
be allowed to play Seventy girls have
decided, therefore, that thirteen is no., in
this case, an unlucky number The fac
ulty is puzzled. For at the trial practices
the seventy girls have shown themselves
quite capable of doing their part in help
ing to get the ball into the basket or IN
keeping it out And so the faculty is
wondering how it will make a selection.
When 1t was decided to introduce basket
ball into the high school, no one realized
that athletics would prove so popular,
and when in response to a query seventy
hands were raised and seventy voices as
sured Miss Austin, who has charge OF
the basket ball, that they would like to
play, too, please" the faculty held hur-
ried consultation. Finally it was decided
to divide the seventy candidates into
three squads. Tuesday Wednesday and
Thursday afternoons were set apart for
practice, the first squad meeting Tuesday,
the second Wednesday and the third
Thursday. Already the squads have been
practicing two weeks. Before Christmas
it is hoped the teams will be selected.
Before Christmas, therefore, there will be
thirteen happy girls and fifty un-
happy ones. Because basket ball is as
much fun as football" said one of the
girls, so, of course, we all want 20 play
it. And its not so much easier than foot
ball either, for one of the girls hurt her

From Gunton's Magazine.


In South America a great many Of the
South American republics are owned by
money lenders and capitalists. Concessions
after concessions have been granted to cor
porations and foreign governments for loans
advanced. Railroads, mining privileges and
revenues from nearly all taxable goods have
been pledged. The ease with which money
is squandered by the governments of the
South American republics makes many of
the smaller ones chronically hard up, and
no sooner does one revolution dispose of a
ministry and president than another move
ment to negotiate new loan begins.
In many cases private corporations and
capitalists have more to say in the govern
ment Of the small South American repub-
lies than the presidents or their cabinets
Virtually owning everything Of real value
in the country, it Is only natural that they
should demand a controlling voice in the
management of affairs that concern their
interests. Thus the Argentine Republic has
practically been sold over to the auctioneer
and her finances are SO involved that an ex-
pert could never Straighten them out. The
ministers do net attempt to do this; they
are satisfied to raise more money by mort
gaging other property and industries of the
country If in need of funds for special pur-
poses. Argentina owes over $500 600, 600 and

Already her mines, railroads and ether nat

The People and the Grass.

H1oiu lue boStoH JOurnal.
A friend of the Journal writes in protest
against the exclusion Of the people from
the grass on the Common. He writes es-
pecially of that part lying along the mall
from Temple place to Spruce street, and Of
the noon hour on warm days, when shade
is scant. His interest in this matter Is
very much to his credit, especially as his
own position In life makes his personal
comfort dependent in no respect upon the
privileges which he believes should be en-
joyed by the public.
This is an old and troublesome question
and Its difficulties were well described by
one of the very policemen who are charged
with the care of the grass He was in the
act OF calling some children out of one Of
the inclosed spaces, and it was plain that
he didn't like his job. Turning as we
passed he said. pleasantly and with a lit
tie shamefacedness:
Il hate to drive the kids off the grass,
but It's the order and I must obey it,
Besides, the city can't make fish Of one
and flesh of another. Everybody must be
let on or else everybody kept off. You
can't favor women against men or children
against grown people. And II everybody
was allowed to walk and lie on the grass
there wouldn't be grass very long for any,
body to look at even. Two or three years
ago the rules were let down. and after one
summer the Common was sight. This is
the second summer now that the city has
been trying to repair damages, and two
more summers won't finish 1t. People
have got to be kept off the grass and get
what other pleasure they can out Of the

IMPORTANT TROLLEY DECISION.
Electric Railways Responsible foI
ElectrOlysis.


ElectrOlysis.
From the Engineering Record.
The report of the master In chancery on
t., Peoria electrolysis litigation is unique
in its frankness, and in SO far as it places
the entire responsibility for the alleged
damage to the mains and services Of the
Peoria Waterworks Company upon the
electric railway companies it establishes
precedent which may be far reaching in
it's effects upon the capital invested in cleo
trio roads throughout the country.
Along with this explanation it is just to
t.e railway companies to state that at the
time the present system of rail return was
instituted no one foresaw definitely the
effects which have subsequently developed.
Great improvements have been made by
the railways in the methods of bonding the
rails, and in many cases by supplementing
tie rail returns with copper returns. These
improvements have certainly mlt1gated the
effects produced, but they have not COM
pletely removed them. The decision under
discussion points to the adoption of the
overhead double trolley or a completely
insulated metallic circuit as the only means
of effectually and completely removing the
cause Of trouble, Without commenting
upon the facts in the matter it Is evident
that should the Peoria decision be upheld
by the court of final jurisdiction the effect
will be to require the electric traction COM
panies to double at least their present in
vestment In copper.
The decision is more pronounced in view
Of the fact that the master finds from the
evidence that the railway in Peoria has

than the average used by overhead single

Another whip is being made for the Queen
Victoria memorial fund. for which not quite
half the amount required has yet been sub
scrfbed. The committee which took the
matter in hand was somewhat previous in
the work before they had secured a third
of that sum. Estimates for work Of this
Kind are worth next to nothing, and it
seems very probable that the Queen Vic
toria memorial will be left unfinished, like
the gate at Hyde Park corner and that on
the top of Constitution Hill. This Is not
what one would have expected when the
sentiment that poured forth in such tre-
mendous volume on the death of the queen
is borne in mind. But the English people
apparently thought that when they had
