The Woman's Club


A regular meeting of the Woman S
Club was held Saturday afternoon at
the residence OF Mrs. Parkill.
Miss Pierpont gave a study OF Will
liam Morris as eXemplifed in News
from Nowhere" and "Hopes and Fears
for Art" To the influence of William
Morris the world owes its salvation
from the rush for the tawdry and
cheap in home decoration. Fully one
half the homes in England and Amer
lea have been influenced by the good
taste and strong personality Of that
strong, earneSt.man.
He insisted that housekeeping must
be Simplitied and that we should have
fewer things and have them better.
With this end in view he undertook to
furnish homes from cellar TO garrett
In the houses furnished by VIM. Nor
ris the first thing that impresses one
is the simplicity. Wide tireplaces with
mantels of solid oak were introduced;
the floors were Of polished wood, par
TALLY covered with beautifully woven
rugs. The furniture was generally
upholstered in leather and was made
to fit a certain apartment with def
mite purpose in view. Two or three
well-framed pictures adorned the walls.
Morris designs for wall paper, tapes
try and carpets, also the morris
chair" and round dining table are ex-
amples of his art.
His workmen were associated with
himself. Every piece Of work turned
out was work of art and the work
man seemed to feel it as he worked.
Their motto was, "Not how cheap but
how we'll"
AS Ruskin had idealized work, so
Morris idealized cooperation and made
beauty in work a social JOY which
might be shared by the many.
At the close of Miss Pierpont's paper
dainty refreshments were served by
the hostess and social time enjoyed.
With this meeting the club drops
the subject of art for the present. AS
a fitting close Of the subject Mrs. Gould
finished reading her paper, cart in
the Club, Z" which was read at the State
Federation. The influence Of the
study CT art on the life of the individ-
ual was we'll brought out in the closing
remarks of Mrs. Gould: Nov what
has art In the club brought to you and
to me? Have we learned technical art,
can we actually look at tree, cloud and
running brook? No, not with the ar
lists eye. Are we able to analyze the
expression of the thought of the mas
tiers in painting more correctly? Prob
ably not. Our minds are turned to-
wards one Of the three ways by which
the grandest thought Of man expresses
itself. We are learning little about
standing silently, reverently, In the
presence Of nature telling her story in
form, color, motion, and to stand wait
ing and longing In the presence of no
BILE art where the material through
the hand OF the master Is made to re.
peat and to idealize natures wondrous
story In marble and on canvas. We
re gaining little In the habit Of soul
which taketh note Of beauty. Now II
this be true, as believe it is, with the
words Of another let me say, We know
that to travel on is better than to ar.
rive"

PRESIDENTS POLICIES FAVORED
Leading Senators Endorsed Attitude
on Trusts and cuba-No Tariff
Revision Next Session.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Sept 17.-Sena-
tors Hanna, Spooner, Allison. Aldrieh
and Lodge and Postmaster General
Payne spent several hours with Pres.
ident oosevelt yesterday and dis.
cussed with him the entire political
situation having special reference to
the conditions in the western states
which the president is to visit on his
approaching trip. The parties to the
conference were very reticent after
they returned from Sycamore Hill,
but it can be stated ON reliable au.
thority that it was decided to make
no attempt to revive the tariff at the
coming session of congress; that the
president is to maintain his position
as to the trusts, and further that he
is to insist in his demand for reci-
procity with Cuba. 1t is understood
that he will fully outline his policy
regarding the latter question in some
of the speeches he is to make on his
western trip.
It also can be stated on excellent
authority that the coal strike was not
discussed.
The presidents purpose in having
this conference was to ascertain If
there had been any marked political
changes in the different sections OF
the country during the last year. The
conference, it is said, showed there
had been none.
One of the party said in part: mo
differences of opinions developed and
the presidents position on the differ
ent questions discussed was endorsed
We talked over the entire political
situation, especially that in the states
through which the president is to
pass. The coal strike was not talked
about"

ANOTHER Big ONE.
Real Estate on Front Street
Changes hands.

Company of ten Buy two Corner lots
on Front and Peasants Streets
Two handsome Blocks TO be erected
Thirty three Thousand paid for
the Property.
A big real estate deal has been
made on Front street. 1t was con-
sumated this morning. BY the deal
two corner lots On Front and Pleas

L. Brown property fronts 80 feet on
Front street and runs back lat feet
to the railroad. The Kern lot is So
feet front and extends back "a dis
lance of l55 feet.
1t is the intention of the gentle.
men who have made the purchase to
erect $4,000 hotel on one of the
lots. The use of the other one has
not yet been determined but block
to cost at least $4,000 will be
placed on it. These buildings are
to go up during the next year.
The property which changed
hands is regarded as about the most
desirable in that section of the town.
Those who have purchased it are
amply able to carry out their plans.
t. 2. Reay made the sale and has
been engaged in the deal for some
days. Glasscock and Brown double
their money on their investment hav-
ing purchased the lot two years ago
at half the price obtained for it.

Big Return 5 on Investments.

No portion of town offers such ex
ceptional advantages as the addition
owned by J. L. Smith at the south
end of the First Ward. The lots
face beautiful view, they are well
located, have every modern conven
fence in the way of water, gas and
sewerage. The trolley line runs
through the addition. The Wire
Glass factory and Pump Station adj
join it. Residences to accommodate
the employees of these plants are in
great demand. The lots are sold on
easy terms making it possible for
avery one to purchase one or more
of them. No addition in town will
prove more profitable to investors

strike began.

I'VE said then that we would make
no concessions, and we repeat 1t now.
There is no reason why this should
not be understood. The operators
have shown that they mean it, and

There is just one way to end the
strike-by the men returning to

son was in the city all day confer
ring with political leaders relative
to the senatorial situation in this.
the eleventh senatorial district. Mr..
Dawson was brought here by the
report that the question of holding
another senatorial convention was
being agitated by the friends Of Mr..
Sturgiss, who lost out in the nom
mating convention at Morgantown.
The details in this case which ser
iously threatens republican success
In this district this year are briefly
as follows:
The names of Messrs. George c.
Sturgiss of Monongalia county. and
Charles w. Swisher of Marion coun-
ty, were submitted to vote of the
republicans of Taylor county at the
primaries, the candidate securing a
majority of the votes of TAYLOR coun.
ty in the senatorial convention.
Swisher came out ahead by some
eighty votes; the Sturgiss people de.
mandeo a recount by the county
committee, which was being granted
when the opponents of Mr.. Swisher
put in plea that due notice of said
primary, so far as referred to the
longaterm senatorship, had not been
given, and asked that the election
be declared null and void. which
was done.
Mr. Sturgiss had the vote of Mon.
ongalia county and Mr.. Swisher the
vote of Marion county, leaving Tay-
lor the deciding element in the con.
vention. When the convention as.
sembled in Morgantown, Mononga.
liza county refused to act with The
sister counties of the district and
the Sturgiss people claimed that
Taylor county had no regularly
elected delegates in the conven-
ton empowered to cast a vote for
the long term senatorship Hon. Ira
E. Robinson, candidate for the short
term, had been empowered to name
his own delegates from this county,
and the same set of delegates cast
their vote for Swisher also, the con
vention declaring Swisher and Rob-
inson as the nominees.
There is of course no question
as to the legality of the nomination
OF Mr.. Robinson. After the Morgan
town convention, friends of Mr.. Stur-
giss declared that another primary
would be held in Taylor county, but
the matter remained In statu quo
until the present time After the
visit of Mr.. Sturgiss to Grafton a
week ago, the matter of new con-
yeDtion In this county became an open
question, and hence Mr.. Dawson's
visit here and his efforts to bring
ordor out OF chaos. Friends OF Swish
er say they will not act in another
convention, but it is hard to predict
just at this time exactly what So
luton OF the perplexing question will
be finally reached.
