mldwinter meeting of the Minnesota
Federation of Women's clubs are ia
vorable to large attendance as they
give those desiring to attend practice

extend invitations to their club ac-
Quaintances to make them visits of a
day Or two at the time of the gather
ing.

day. They cannot afford to make mis-
takes-they do not propose to mal1s
too many experiments. The consensus
Of opinion from the best and highest
sources is always at their command,
and they are wise enough to make
the most Of their opportunities. There
are few Of the really great leaders Of
public opinion, either men or women,
who do not now regard the organized
power Of the women's club movement
as probably shortest and quickest
of all the avenues by which the pub
lie conscience may be reached and
public questions may be influenced.
This may seem like saying a good
deal, but any one who knows the in
ner history of the club movement in
recent years will be compelled to ac-
cept it in the main.

sYLPH STOOD THE TESTS.
Experiment With Presidents Yacht at
Norfolk-New Steel Target.

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.
NORFOLK, Va, December IA. 1904.
There was a novel experiment with the
Presidents yacht Sylph In the dry dock at
the Norfolk navy yard today, when the ves-
sci was fioated into the basin and subjected
to a series of tests to ascertain the extent
to which the Sylph could roll in storm at
sea without danger of capsizing. The trim
yacht was rolled to a remarkable extent,
and the experiments were pronounced by
the navy yard authorities to be highly sue
cessful. The tests took place in the dry
dock, so that the same could be quickly
pumped out in the event of any possible ac-
cident by which the vessel might have cap
sized during the experiments.
The naval tug Choctaw has sailed from
Norfolk for Indian Head proving grounds,
on the Potomac river, with the large steel
target representing a full section of one OF
the new fast armored cruisers of the West
Virginia, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Col
orado type which was built at this yard
and recently placed on board the powerful
ammunition barge No 8, upon which the
target is being towed up the Potomac. The
Choctaw, upon delivering the target at In
dian Head will return at once to her sta
ton at Washington. - ANsaA

ed the bill of So for his ride. His arrest
for failure to settle with the driver fol-
lowed. Earlier in the evening he was ar
rested for alleged disorderly conduct be-
cause he annoyed two Sisters of Charity at

A Nations Savings.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.

The old adage that many mickle makes
a nuckle is admirably illustrated by the
fact that the savings of the people OF this
country in financial institutions which make
a speciality of receiving small sums amount
to more than three billion dollars, sum
entirely incomprehensible. but equal to more
than three times the funded national DEBT
This statement must not be taken as repre-
senting anything like the nations savings.
Other billions are not in the banks report
Ing. and some of the money therein be-
longs to people in good circumstances. but
it is certain that the total as given repre-
SCENTS less ra Their than more than the savings
Of the Woodworking people in the shape OF
money.
