Nii O. 1. D. ildHiSlOu, WHO spent a greater part of the summer in Alfred N Y., where she studied with Marshall Fry and also with Mir Leonard of New York, has recently been the guest of MT. and Mrs. Van Doren, at East Or ange. N. J.
 Mrs. Van Doren is very charming woman, and like Mrs. Rauston is ex- treme1y artistic. They have been friends for many years. Mrs. Van Doren re- sembles Mrs. Richard Mansfield, who is her first cousin. Before her marriage Mrs. Mansfield was Miss Grace Cameron and she is the most charming of women. Mrs. Raulston who has been a frequent guest of the Van Dorens met Mrs. Mans field before her marriage and when MT. Mansfield was at his best in the role of lover.
 The Van Dorens entertain charmingly and 1t must have been exceedingly in- teresting to have been their guest when MT. Mansfield was playing the devoted to Miss Cameron.
 Mrs. Raulston Is now in New York having been joined by MT. and Ms Mar shall Foy Later she will go to Chicago to study with Aulich. Some of the art critics in the east have recently written of Mrs Raulston and her work and among the most interesting articles is the following which originally appeared in the Richmond Times -Dispatch
 Mrs. J. R. Rauston, of Birmingham Ala, famous for her success as an artist

Mrs. TufWiIer Enterfains.

Mrs Edward Magruder Tutwiler gave card party yesterday afternoon in com pliment to Mrs. Davidson, the occasion being a beautiful one, and one of the most delightful of the pre-Lenten sea- son. The score cards were extremely artistic, carrying out in their design the "black cat idea Each card showed a frolicsome kitten. and this Is decidedly a foreign fad which smart hostesses are now affecting.
 The first prize was won by Mrs. George R. Ward, and was handsome lace cover. The lone hand prize, set of after dinner coffee cups, was won by Mrs. William B. Leedy, and the consolation, a cut glass bonbon dish was drawn by Mrs. George M. Cruikshank.
 A delicious luncheon in courses was served at the close of the games. Mrs. Tutwler was a charming figure in a blue gown appliqued with white lace and Mrs. Davidson was lovely in blue and white.
 There was a brilliant party of guests and the indictment afternoon without was entirely dispelled in the brilliantly lighted rooms within, and the gay chat ter of many guests. Among those pres ent were Mrs. Davidson, Mrs. Wyman. Mrs Graham. Mrs. Harry Jones. Mrs. George R. Ward, Mrs Addison G. Smith, Mrs George M. Cruikshank, Mrs. Toul- min of Mobile; Mrs. Hubert Drennen.

N T the meeting of the Alabama PO federation in Montgomery next week Mrs. c. P. Orr will urge the appointing of an advisory com mittee of three women, whose duties will be to visit the Alabama Industrial school at Montevallo and whose work would in a measure supplement that of the trustees without conflicting in any way with their duties.
 Mrs Orr believes that by the appoint ing of such committee the relation that should exist between the school and the federation will be a closer one and that the women of the state, particularly the women of the federation. should be in constant touch with an institution that directly concerns the education of Ala bama's young women.
 Mrs. Orr takes the position that state institution that stands for the practical education of women should have yis- iting committee of women who studying educational progress along the broadest lines, will be able through their active  the school.
 She believes that such a committee would be of invaluable assistance and will urge that immediate action be taken in this matter.
 Mrs. Orr will also urge upon the fed eration the importance of its work In connection with the Alabama reforma- tory.
 In discussing this institution Mrs. Orr said the work of the women of the state for the reformatory should not be over looked. She considers this institution to be the most important work in the feder- ation, and she will urge the women of the state to renewed effort in behalf of the Boys Industrial school.
 Among the discussions at the federa tion will be that dealing with the condi- tions that surround the working women of the state.
 Mrs. Stonewall Jackson Cole of Bir- mingham will open the discussion.
 It will be seen that the approaching convention will deal directly in it's dis cussions with educational and economi- cal problems and questions that vitally concern educational progress in the state
 The most important report will natur- ally be that of the child labor commit tee. The conflicting interests having been satisfactorily adjusted through the brilliant diplomacy and wise policy of the president of the federation, who made possible the compromise bill, has done more to strengthen the position of the federation than anything that has yet been accomplished

 On the whole the winter wheat crop fared well in January, 1903, the central and northern portions of the winter wheat belt being protected by snow covering until the closing days of the month when much snow melted, leay- fac only the extreme northern districts with a covering on January 31. OFeT the soe'hern portion of the winter wheat belt some damage hay resulted from alternate freezing SlId thawing, but the crop has apparently not sus- tained serious injury. The rainfall throughout the winter wheat belt was lighter than usual but Kansas is the only state reporting needing moisture.
