RESENT CHAPERON8l
One European Innovation That
American Girls Do Not Relish.
otsAngoA& Rules Of United Sto4ee Oh.
1agsa Mako the Students Smart
With Indignation, Yet Ao
CA0poeoA II Favored.

American girls as a rule resent the
chaperon. They declare they have no
need of such a guardian and will have
none of her. Furthermore, they de-
clare that her presence is an imputa-
ton upon their characters that is lit
tie short of insulting, says the Chi
cago Chronicle. The girl students Of
Smith college have taken the initia-
tive in protesting against the odious
presence. The powers that be at
that institution have lately ordained
that the services Of chaperon shall
be called into rsquisition whenever
Algernon comes to pay court or an
Amherst student wants to vary the
monotony Of Smith girls life by
taking her to the theater. No more
accidental little walks or cozy little
lunches with incidental harmless
firtations In company with mere
man. He is tabooed, except the ar
gus eye of the ehapsron have him In
focus.
Some years ago the rules of Smith
college were very stringent in re-
spect to chaperonage. The girls
we're not allowed to attend the the
ator except under the surveillance of
q teacher and were only allowed to
walk certain distances from the coll
lege and ON certain streets. OF re-
cent years, however, rules and ;regu-
lations have been done away with
and the girls have been made their
own mentors and given perfect free
dom. AS result they are highly in
dignant at having their privilege
withdrawn. Whether the decision OF
the faculty has been brought about
through any especial cause or is SIM
ply the result of gradual change of
sentiment throughout the country
is not explained, but 1t is presumably
the latter. There has certainly been
rapidly growing sentiment In
America in favor Of the chaperon.
Even in the wild and woolly west
social forms are much more compli-
Gated than few years ago and the
girl Of good family NO longer goes
driving or to the theater alone with
a man. There is no doubt that the
ehaperon has become a recognized
necessity in Uncle Sans country.
We have imported her from Europe
along with our other luxuries. Just
how she Is going to affect the matri-
monial market in the end is a ques-
tion. The American man does not
as rule look upon her with favor.
In very exclusive social circle of \
certain eastern city chaperonage IL
carried to such an extent that the
young men complain of never having
chance to get acquainted with the
girls. Those who decline to be
dragged to balls are reduced to q
dinner or calling acquaintance, the
latter, OF course, In presence of a
chaperon. Now, how in the world il
man to indulge in sentiment or
form a strong friendship under such
conditions? However that may be,
the select circle of the city in ques-
tion can show q surprising number
of spinsters, and 1t is not by any
means q lack Of attractions that 10

chine ready for the next voter. It is
the swinging back of this lever that
opens the curtains and registers the
vote just cast. The face of the ma
chine has recovered it's former passive
aspect and the voter next entering or
those standing outside have no know
ledge as to the vote cast while the
screen was closed.
No Chance For. Repeating.
AS to repeating, there is no posi-
bility Of such. The fact Of depressing
the lever over the name of one candi-
date locks all the others for the same
office. The same applies in the case
of one or more sets of candidates, such
as the assembly, where there are nine.
After nine levers are depressed, the
others are locked
The counting arrangement located in
the rear, and when in the voting place
subject only to inspection by the judges
and that only after each has produced
the proper key, is complex affair.
Each lever on the front has connection
with steel upright located here, the
dropping of which as the lever is de-
pressed, turning small wheel with
figured characters bringing into view
and showing the number of votes cast
for the candidate it's number indicates.

ment below fastened with a small key
permit the throwing out of commission
any lever for which there Is no can
didate. Additional wedges also aid in
locking all the other levers in a set Of
candidates for the same Office wh0n
one lever has been depressed. This
is the arrangement that prevents re-
peatlng. AS to mistakes there can be
none. The voter may have failed to
follow his intentions by depressing a
key. for some candidate he did not in
tend to vote for, but he gets credit for
something. With the paper ballot his
mistake might cause it's rejection.
Here if an error is made, some one gets
credit for it.
Five Keys to Open 1t.
No fewer than five keys accompany
each machine and to place it in oper-
alton the use Of each individually is
necessary. One is carried by each
judge and clerk. The same applies in
the case when the counting arrange
ment is to be exposed for inspection
after the days voting is completed.
The levers in front must all be locked
before this particular apartment can
be inspected. This prevents tamper-
ing.
Difficult as 1t looks on first inspec-
ton the machine gains in simplicity
as one examines 1t. To the ilIiterate
voter it is a boon, for 1t Is he who Is
responsible for the most of the mutilat-
ed paper ballots, the greater number

The machine at the city hall was
selected for trial in the Seventh ward,
but there is little probability that such
will be done. Already numerous in
ventors seeing the possibility Of COW
ering the Western field are preparing
to compete, and in Difference to their
wishes, the authorities have decided to
wait. From the lot will be selected the
best machine.

| next home of the club was on Jackson
street between Fifth and Sixth streets,
where the club remained for several
years. and later a home was provided
at Eighth and Jackson.
Four years ago the club moved to it's
present magnificent quarters in the
Ryan annex. The rooms are large
and equisitely appointed. There is a
large dance hall, card and billiard
room, a large kitchen and cloak rooms
for both sexes. Then there is the
large hall and reception room.
The primary object Of the club is the
entertainment of it's members, their
families and friends. The club is open
continuously, and force of caterers
is on hand constantly to serve MEM
bers with the delicious eatables of the
season.
During the season, however, social
events are held as frequently as twice
a month. Card parties and various
other forms of entertainment are pro-
yided.
The clubs membership is nearly 100,
and it is probable that this number Will
be considerably increased shortly. The
affairs of the club are left almost en-
tirely to the younger members, and the
latter are leaving no stone unturned to
make the institution unusually sue
cessfu1 under their guidance.
The club is patronized by the best
Jewish families in the city, who regu-
larly attend the semi monthly func-
lions that are given under It's manage
ment. It is headquarters for the men
who may have a few hours to spend in
pastime.
Visitors are royalty entertained at
the club on the introduction by mem
Der. while prominent visitors to the
city have standing welcome.
Club Rooms Are Comfortable.
The club rooms are models OF elegance
and comfort The interior decoration
is very elaborate, and the conveniences
are carfully appointd. The excellent
entertainment provided by the club Is
serving as a drawing card, and more
and more members are being received
into the order.
It IS impossible at any time to drop
into the club rooms and find them de-
serted. There are always at least a
few members present, either at lunch
con or enjoying a friendly game of
whist or billiards.
The club yields an excellent moral
influence, as we'll as providing enjoy
ment, especially for the young men.
They always have some place to go. If
they have an evening to spend they can
go to their club and be sure Of enjoya-
BILE company, and be among their own
kind. The catering department is up

at least would be made, but this for
the present at least is counted among
the imprObabilities.
To the uninitiated, their minds asso-
ciated with the griny canvas screened
booth with it's paraphernalia of sput-
tering candles, cigar ends and chewed
sections of lead pencils, the idea Of
voting by machinery is akin to the i'm
possible, or if not that bad so preg-
nant with doubt as to be figured an
impeachment rather than an aid.
The machine on exhibition at the
city hall is the one now in general use
in the East, and to a person first see
ing it is not unlike hotel annunciator,
though more massive in construction,
and set on standards. Instead of the
quivering needles so familiar on the
hotel annunciator or bell board, metal
pointers or levers cover it's front while
an extension at it's top hangs a couple
of green damask portieres, which hide
the voter from view while he is regis
tering his vote. When not in use these

is confronted with the face of the ma
chine bearing it's rows of small metal
levers and the names Of the candidates
together with the parties they repre-
sent, beneath each of them. If his
partisanship will only permit straight
ballot, he depresses, one at a time, the
entire row of levers or keys Immediate
ly over and above the slight recess in
which the strip of card board con-
tanning his list of candidates has been
placed. If it is split ticket the voter
desires, however, it is just as easy
played. The same procedure of de-
pressing levers is followed, except that
instead of a row, the finger follows the
face of the machine, dropping lever
here, depressing one there until he has
been fully satisfied. The fact that a
lever has been depressed however, does
not necessarily follow that 1t cannot
be recalled. If mistake has been
made the lever can be raised and an
other, the right one dropped. This
done the voter reaches up, swings back

Tor. Over each name hangs the point
er or key and it is the depressing of
this pointer that sets in motion the
counting mechanism in the rear of the
machine or metal box and registers the
vote. The machine at the city hall
has to the right Of each strip of card
board an additional pointer or key
bearing on it's face the emblem
of the party the candidates represent,
the depressing of which permits voting
a straight ticket. In Minnesota, how
ever, a straight ticket, or the simple
scratching of the head is not allowed,
and this would have to be removed for
use in st. Paul.
In the rear of the machine is the
counting arrangement, hid from view
by double locked doors, but when ex-
posed not unlike the interior Of cash

bered wheels and steel levers. Here
