ONE PERSON TO EACH TICKET.
On This Basis Cards Were Issued for
Library Dedication.

During the last few days the library
building commission, of which Commission
er Macfarland Is chairman. has received a
large number Of letters and telephone mes
sages requesting cards Of admission to the
library opening. A great many inquiries
have also been made whether person In
vited can bring member Of his family on
the card issued him. The hall at the library
building Is quite small, and the cards were
issued on the basis Of one person to each
card, SO it will be impossible to accommo-
date more.
This should be kept in mind, as not to do
SO will result in disappointment to the
member of the family and embarrassment
to the reception committee. The invitation
list Is official, and it has been impossible
for the commission, on account of the very
limited space at it's disposal to send invi-
tations to all whom they desired to be
present.
It Is a source of regret to the commission
that they cannot afford all who desire to
do so an opportunity to attend the opening
ceremonies. AS soon as the ceremonies are
over the building will be thrown open to
the public. The building will also be open
to the public during the evening, when a
program will be rendered by the Marine
Band. Every invitation has been sent out,
not one remaining in the hands or at the
disposal Of the commission.

BACHELOR WOMEN CHUMS.
A Curious Relationship Which Fills
Up the Life of>the Lonely Woman.

"a SuI1OuS " Ills
Up the Life of>the Lonely Woman.
From the New York Sun.
A chief characteristic of the bachelor
business woman Is to have a chum, con-
firmed bachelor woman like herself, upon
whom she can lavish all the familiar
friendly attention she has time for. The
college girls and the college boys chum is
a mere temporary, inconsequent accessory
compared with the settled woman's chum.
There are bachelor women chums in New
York who have been going about together
steadily and successfully for seven, eight
or ten years and lend to each other all
the attentions possible between times Of
business. Under ordinary circumstances
perhaps, women would not be close friends
for so long. They would fall out about
or ambitions. But the confirmed bachelor
woman has no such disturbments in her life;
so the chums are pretty well content to
spend their extra earnings in each other 8
company and fill each for each the social
needs of life The two write letters to each
other in intervals of Office work, see each
other always on Sundays and at least on
one evening in the week. And at Christmas
or on birthdays they exchange presents like
the gifts lovers chooSe-candy, lockets and
chains with the dear ones features en-
shrined In the locket. The bachelor woman
always calls her chums by name of her
own invention and that holds as an endear-
ment between them. She pays her little
compliments, heartens her up when blue or
sick, and altogether stands in very well
come relation.

Election Of Officers.

At the annual meeting Of the Soldiers and
Sailors Rights League Of the United States
Of America, held in the National Council
chamber last night, the following officers
were elected: National president Capt.
VIM. NJ. Potter: national vice president.
Maj. John H. Slime, who is the historian Of
the Army Of the Potomac; national secre-
tary, Col. Joseph Smolinski; national treas
urer, Col. Jacob H. Devices; national chap
lain, DR.. N. H. Miller.
These officers are all veterans who have
good military records won in active service
during the war Of the rebellion.
The league starts out upon the new year
under what are deemed to be the most ia
vorable auspices. Subordinate councils are
being organized throughout the states.
This is the only soldiers organization, It
is claimed, which takes into its ranks all
soldiers, sailors, marines, their sons and
grandsons who served in the army, navy or
marine corps, in time of war or peace, in
the United States or foreign countries, and
who were honorably discharged therefrom-
1t Is not intended to interfere with any
other organization, but has for its object
the protection Of the rights and the ad-
vancement Of the interests of all defenders
of the American flag
