WOULD AWAKEN CIVIC INTEREST.
Municipal League Thinks Branches all Over

Miss Margaret L. Chanler president Of the
Woman's Municipal League, was the principal
speaker at the meeting Of the Heights Branch,
held yesterday morning at the Pierrepont Assembly
Rooms Brooklyn.
Some women. said Miss ChanIer. have an idea
that 20 participate in public affairs is not womanly.
Yet there are many things in the private and home
life Of every woman which make il imperative for
her TO take some interest in politics.
The cleaning and lighting OF streets and the
keeping OF pavements in good condition are Of as
much moment 10 her TO a man. There is no
woman. matter how frivolous. she said. who

this way, but when il to some civic matter.

Mss Chan.er maintained that it is, OF course,
impossible for the women in one part Of the city
alone look after the interests Of the whole
city. Each section should have its organized
branch. and all should keep in close touch with
another in order to know precisely what progress
Is being made
Miss Grace Dodge. treasurer of the league told
how hard it was 70 raise money to carry on the
for this lay in the fact that NEWCOMERS as

BaIlington Booth Says Man Arrested Was
Not a Member Of the Volunteers.

BaIHngton Booth, the head OF the Volunteers OF
America, wishes Il known that his organization
was imposed upon when IL employed one John
Moore as counterfeit Santa Claus AS The Trib-
uue told yesterday Moore inbihed TOO freely
Monday and landed in Jail. That in itself was not
such a serious matter for any one save John him
self. But General Booth fears that the incident
may bring discredit the Volunteers and conse-
quent loss Of subscriptions for the good work OF
the organization, and he makes the statement that
Moore was only hired man, employed on the
recommendation Of q missionary society that had
tried to reform him. and apparently failed. Gen
eraI Booth wishes IL understood that the Volun-
teers have permanent officers with habits any
thing like MOOre's, and he hopes the public will not
unduly magnify the unfortunate fail from grace
and withhold any part of its Christmas subScrip-
