will be no exhibits in this building, it will
be entirely devoted to club and social func-
lions, for the lady managers intend TO en-

important sum been set aside for entertain

A MODEL NURSERY.
Another building of import to women, es-
pecially mothers, is the model nursery, sit
uated on the model street and near the main
entrance to the grounds. One may imagine
the joyful surprise of weary parents when
they discover that they can deposit their
precious burdens in this cool and coy re-
treat. Here the little one tired, sleepy and
perchance hungry, may he taken in hand
by trained nurses, who feed and battle and
rock to sleep their little charges. In the
case of older children attendants will be
provided who will play games with them
and display wonders of mechanical toys
so that the hours will pass as if In land
of enchantment scarcely dreamed of by any
but the children of millionaires. Neither
has the intellectual side been forgotten, as
there is a kindergarten fitted up with all
OF the latest paraphernalia. There is a
delicious little bedroom all in pink and
white, for all the world like strawberries
and cream. White enameled cots with
snowy bedlinen WOO weary eyes TO slumber
While on awakening the gaze is rejoiced
with pretty Kate Greenway pictures.
There is a special milk supply and lessons
in the hygienic preparation of food may
be attended. Not the least of these delights
is the restroom, where mothers, once as
sured that their babies are in good hands.
may rest their weary limbs on soft-cush-
Toned lounges or lay back in easy chairs and
lose themselves in the pages of the latest
magazine. The creche where the babies
are sleeping has plate glass sides with a
wide corridor running through the center
Here the public may enjoy perpetual baby
show without disturbing them. The vari-
Gus phases of child life can be studied and
this will be valuable object lesson to
those IMMERSED in baby lore

Whose birthday comes next Monday, chill

swiftly and at the nod from Miss Lily
'Melia's ready voice announced, Cousin
Mattie's birthday" And that was why
shame covered her now like a cloak while
all the little girls and boys Uttered.
''It Is cousin Mattie's birthday, too" said
'Melia stoutly to Martha, as they walked

49, At the Columbian Exposition
the woman's building caused widespread
interest because for the first time the work
emanating from women was massed in
structure distinctively their own. 1t was
woman of brains and social prestige who
projected and materialized the idea-Mrs.
Palmer, of Chicago, who had the interests
of her sex at heart. Eleven years have
rolled by; women have acquired a diff
ferent status and is no longer regarded as

When the projectors of the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition materialized the fair

on their merits alone. In order that their
decisions should be justified they agreed at
the instance of the board of lady man.
ayers that a woman should sit on every
jury where the work of women was to be
judged.
While there is no woman's building in
a distinctive sense. there is an imposing
structure which is dedicated to the use of
the board of lady managers. This is one
of the Washington University group: it is
of the Tudor-Gothic period of architecture
and if of solid red granite. Through the
center runs a spacious corridor with roomy
apartments on either side. On the first
floor are two large halls in which will be
held women's congresses when a special
day has not been set apart in the Hall of
Congresses. There is a reception room COM
fortably furnished, also reading, writing
and resting rooms; there is besides a well
equipped hospital for emergency cases with
a trained nurse in attendance.
On the upper floor there are rooms for
the private use of the lady manager whose

Chicago. Aug. 15.-Mayor Harrison
will attempt tomorrow to settle the
stock yards strike. He will meet to-
morrow morning at 10 o'clock the rep
resentatives of the strike and hear
their side of the controversy. Later
IN the day he will have a meeting
with representatives of the packers
and listen to their statements and he
will then undertake the task Of rec
onciling the differences.
A large committee of the retail
dealers called upon him this after
noon and asked him to use his good
offices in ending the strike. The Mayor
said that he would gladly do all that
lay in his power to put an end to the
trouble
There were a number of conferences
during the day, all having the settle
ment of the strike in view, but none
of them resulted in anything.
The numerous assaults that have
been taking place every day and night
in the neighborhood of the stock yards
have stirred the police to more energetic
action than they have taken hereto
fore. Inspector Hunt, who is in
chargeNof all the police stationed
around the yards, ordered to-day that
all men picketing the yards should be
compelled to move on and should be
arrested if they declined to do so.
William Madden, % years old, has
been shot and killed in a labor quar-
rel with George L. Smotherman, con-
ductor on a street railway cable line.
The shooting was the direct result,
the police say, of remarks made to
Smotherman by Madden, who chided

TALK OF LYNCHING
A WHITE MAN, TOO.
Threats Are Made Against Young

Alex Waters.
Statesboro. Ga, Aug. 15.-Wild ru-
mors were abroad here to-day in the
tremendous crowd which had assem-
bled to attend the trial of the murder
ers of the Hodges family to the effect
that unless there was speedy trial
and sentence of young Alex Wa
ters for the alleged murder of his
cousin, Tom Waters, a determined
mob, headed by the relatives of the
dead young man. would assault the
Jail and lynch him.
Waters has been confined in the Jail
for several months, and has not yet
been tried, a number of relatives. in
cluding the father and brother of Tom
Waters, were in Statesboro to-day.
Alex Waters is charged with
having shot his cousin in the back

instantly. The facts as stated here are
that Tom Waters and two of his
brothers had accused their cousin.

that Tom Waters was advancing on
