to Mankato was made by Mrs. U. O..
Cox, of this city, In which she gave
brief account of the history of Man
kato. and closed by offering the hos
pitality Of the city to all the delegates
and their friends.
Mrs. La Penotiere responded briefly,
and then read her annual address, in
which she said many good things re-
garding the work of the past, and what
her hopes are for the future of the fed
Grafton. She urged the cooperation
of the various clubs in the effort of
the state to remove the girls training
school from Red Wing and to estab-
lish- a reformatory for women. She
dwelt upon the value of right thinking
as a necessary prelude to right for
clubwomen; unless we think correctly
life will be a failure"
Mrs. L. p. Williams, ex-president,
made brief and witty speech of greet
ing, followed by Mrs. Fletcher, of
Marshalltown, Iowa, who brought
greetings from her state. After this
the convention proceeded to the or
binary business, reports of committees,
officers, etc.
In the evening a beautiful reception
was given for the delegates at the
Secand street. The house was elabo-
rately decorated, and an orchestra
played during the evening. Mrs. An
drews received, assisted by the gen.
eral state officers and the guests Of
honor.
Federation Notes.
Mrs. T. ]. Fletcher of Marshalltown,
Iowa, is one of the honored guests of
the convention. She spoke briefly this
afternoon, bringing greetings from the
club women of our sister state.
Mankato is swept and garnished in
honor of the club women and looks it's
prettiest in its garb of autumn leaves.
The entire city seems to feel the club
women it's guests and each man and
woman constitutes himself or herself a
host for the entertainment of stran-
gers.
Miss Miner, of Mankato, welcomed
the st. Paul women with special fer
Vor, as she used to live in the sanity
city and still has a warm spot in her
heart for her former home Miss Mil
ner is an enthusiastic club woman and
a member of one of the local commit
tees.
One of the best posted men in Man
kato about club women tonight is the
clerk behind the desk at the Saul
paugh house. If he were asked whether
Minnesota women can take care of
themselves he would probably sigh and
say he is convinced that they can. The
reason for this is that when the ST.
Paul delegation arrived they fatty re-
fused to go into rooms where two
women were already and sleep on cots.
The Saulpaugh house manager is lead
ing the strenuous life today.
Mrs. l.. P Williams is looking we'll
and is as popular as ever She has
spent the summer in Europe and is
now active in the work of the national
federation. Minnesota women hope that
some day Mrs. Williams will receive
the highest Office in the national body.
She is we'll fitted for that or any other
honor within the gift of women's or
ganiZations.

gown follow the contour of the human
FORM" remarked an artist who is pretty
popular for his paintings of beautiful
women. Any abnormal development
that conceals the lines of the figure
will, in few years, look outre, and ruin
the effect OF the picture, and it will
take half a century at least to make
it look all right again. For it is
curious fact" he continued. that ex-
aggerati0H eff costume, when it be-
comes really ancient and the dress of
bygone generation, loses it's dowdy
appearance and looks quite attractive
agains 1t Is the interim that is so try
ing, and as the owners of portraits
care more for the criticisms of their
contemporaries than of future genera
tions, they should not insist upon be-
ing painted in their Partisan gowns
unless the latter conform to the lines
of which have spoken.
For instance, 1 painted a portrait
IN 1895 of Miss B, in her street
costume, with plumed hat, large muff
and taiIor-made gown that fitted
closely every line of her fine figure.
That portrait is today as pleasing as
in the year 1T was TAKEN and no change
OF fashion will affect its merits. 1t
was the next year, / think, that the
extraordinary big upper sleeves COM
pletely ruined the beauty lines of wom-
ems HgureS. That year, or rather for
two years-as the ugly fashion lasted
for some tirne-I had a number of sit
ters that came to me to be painted in
balloon sleeves. Most of them / per-
suaded to substitute draped bodices
that would leave the arms bare, but
one or two insisted on being painted in
their smart French finery. The conse-
quence was that in a year or two the
pictures looked antiquated and ugly.
and one of the women came to me the
other day to ask if I could paint an
other over the old one at any cost.
She admitted that 1t was her own
fault, and that 1 had demonstrated
against the dress at the time but hoped
that something could be done about it.
Some women are very queer" he
continued. Speaking of painting a
new gown, reminds me of another one
or my customers, as I suppose / may
call the ladies who seem to regard me
| In the light of dressmaker Mrs. x,
of Chicago, has made me change the
gown in her portrait no less than four
times; high neck, low neck, street
frock, home dress-she has tried them
all. You see,' she says, I am going to
will the portrait to my eldest son, and
l wish my descendant to find me as
tell until see the dress of the woman
in the picture how I will like it,"
What did she finally decide upon ?'
inquired the woman to whom he was
talking.
why that was the most character
istic part of ALL he answered. After
trying all the different effects without
regard to cost, she finally decided to
keep the first gown of ALL"

Claude Z. Swanson. OF Virginia, mem
her of the Ways and Means Committee,
and one Of the Democratic leaders on the
fioor Of the House. says he sees in the re-
appearance of ex- President Grover Cleve-
land within the range Of political gossip
as a possibility for the Presidential nom
nation next year a hopeful sign regard
less of any aspirations for third tenn
Mr.. Cleveland may hold.
Mr. Cleveland cannot be nominated,
said Mr.. Swanson today. but his re-en-
trance into the arena has caused discus
sion Of the several men available, and
that is good thing.
s'One-third of the delegates IN the next
Democratic National Convention, con-
tinued Mr. Swanson, probably will con-
sist of men who are friendly to Hon.
William ]. Bryan; another third will
consist of the so-called reorganizers,
While those who remain will go into the
convention prepared to frame the best
platform and nominate the best man
available believe the last named sec
ton will finally control the convention.
and the candidate selected and the plat.
form adopted will restore harmony IN the
party and appeal 50 strongly to the in
dependent vote that The Democratic
ticket will win.
Ny personal choice for the nominal
ton is Senator Arthur P German, Of
Maryland. / think he would make an
ideal President. Whether lie could be
elected. however. Is another question:
/ am inclined to believe that Judge Alton
B. Parker of New York, would make
about as strong a candidate as could be
named. From the present outlook | be-
lieve either Parker or German will be
nominated. Either man can carry New
York State. which we must secure in
order to win. 1t is probable, however,
that Parkercould command more strength
in doubtful States.
Parker is strong just where German
IS weak. That is to say, he has practical
ly no public record, and it cannot be
gainsaid that Senator German would be
attacked by the opposition because of
legislation he assisted in framing. ro-
tably the tariff, which will be one of the
man issues of the campaign. If the
Democrats should nominate Parker, it
would be wise to make German chairman
of the Democratic National Committee
l have heard this suggestion made, and
if is an excellent one. German is prob
ably the shrewdest manager in the party
today, and if he could be prevailed upon
to conduct the next campaign, with Par
ker at the head of the ticket. the fight
will be crowned with the same degree of
success as now characterizes Mr., Cor
mans leadership IN the Senate.
Il think the Democratic -Presi-
dental candidate should be selected from
either Indiana or West Virginia. y
