Club Notes
.sIs MASTERS VOICE"

The annual business meeting of the
Woman's club was held at the home
of Mrs. Edward Sellers on Wednes-
day. The election was held and the
new officers are, Mrs. w. D. Erwin,
president; Mrs. Z. N. B. Hobbs, vice.
president: Mrs. II. E. Edwards, Sec
retary and treasurer. A sincere vote
of thanks was extended to the. retiring
officers, Mrs. John Wire, president;
Miss Florence Bidwell, vice presi-
dent, and Mrs. Hobbs secretary and
treasurer. for their work for the club
during the past year.
The program committee for the COM
ing years work is Mrs. L. w. Hig-
gins, Mrs. Edward Sellers and Mrs.
NJ. c. Tubbs. The work will be
studies in Japan and Russia and four
special days in 1903. One of the spec
ial days will be devoted to civil SER
vice, the others to subjects of impor-
tance, probably education, Industrial,
ism and civics.
The club dropped its individual
membership in the State Federation
and will belong only through the dis
trict. 1t is hoped that all the clubs
will do this that the State Federation
may be composed of district fedora
tions. A bylaw was added to the
constitution making the president of
the Woman's club a delegate to the
State Federation.
The w oman's club was organized
in 1897 and the first loss by death was
Mrs. F. D. West. A memorial page
for her will be included in the coming
year book. She was one of the best
loved women in the club. She was in
tensely loyal, always kindly toward
other members, and with the keenest
appreciation of the efforts of every
one. No word of criticism of the mo-
tives of others came from her lips.
She lived. up to the ideals of club life
which she professed, and her memory
in the Woman's club will always be a
dear one.

BeIpre Defeats KinsIes.

Belpre defeated Kinsley in an inter-
esting game of base ball at this place
last Monday by score of 10 to 4.
John Peterson, of Hart, Michigan. the
southpaw pitcher who is spending the
summer months in this locality, was
in the box for the locals, and Hop
kins, of Fellsburg, twirled the sphere
for Belpre. Peterson is "a little the
warmest proposition in the pitching
line that has struck this vicinity for
some years, but his support was far
from gilJ-edged. He made several mis-
takes in throwing to first base with run
ners on second and third but with this
exception he played the game finely.
In batting be led both teams. making
the only two-bagger of the game and
sending in the first run for the locals.
Belpre made four runs in the first
inning. Peterson and Montgomery
ran together in this inning and this
seemed to have bad effect ON the
other players. Later Montgomery and
Rrelsford each threw over first base
and runners scored on what should
have been easy outs. Kinsley was
blanked in this inning.
IN the second Belpre went out in
one, two, three ORDER For Kinsley,
Win Bishop hit safely and stole Sec
ond, Peterson came to bat and lined
out his twos acker to center and
Bishop scored. Peterson came in a
moment later on errors.
Both sides were blanked in the third
inning. Bclpre was easily disposed
of in the fourth inning, but Kinsley
ran in two more runs. Will Bishop
and Peterson were again there with
the goods and both scored This
ended Kinsley's rup-getting.
Belpre made one run in the fifth.
three in the sixth and added two more
in the seventh before Kinsley's play
ers could stop making wild throws
and letting grounders go through
them.
The Belpre boys played a clean,
snappy game, and anything that came
near them was neatly gathered in.
Few errors were charged against
them. Harrison, Newhouse and HoL-
kins made neat stops of difficult
grounders.
Very few bases on balls were given
by the pitchers, Peterson giving two
and Hopkins about the Same number
Eight strike outs should have been re-
corded in the game. Peterson struck
out six men, but three of these were
thrown out at first, a runner advanc.
ing to third each time Hopkins is
credited with two strike-outs.
The game was sufficiently exciting
to keep the fans on the jump from
| start TO finish, and had the Kinsley
| boys handled the ball in an errorless
| fashion the score would have beer
| much closer.

Corner Stone Laying.

1
of the new church of the Immaculate
Conception in Hodgemau county was
laid with impressive ceremonies. A
large number of people from the sur
rounding country witnessed the
solemn rite. The evening previous a
terrific rain and hail storm swept
over the country, but it failed to
dampen the ardor of those who are
interested in the spread of religion.
The broadest smile ,discernable was
worn by Mike Gleason. From the in
ception eff the work he has labored in
defatigably, and the exercises Sunday
seemed the dream of his life. At l0:30
a. m. the usual Sunday service was
conducted in the little stone school
house by the Rev. Francis Connors.
The building was too small to accom-
odate the immense number who as
sembled, and men and women were
forced to stand outside. At the COM
pletion of the mass, the congregation
followed by the clergy marched in
solemn procession to the new build
ing. With a precision that would do
credit to disciplined army, the
crowd separated into two columns
through which the clergy marched
into the new. structure. Above the
place whereon the altar will stand a
large cross had been erected. This
was the first spot 60 be blessed. The
intent of the blessing, according to
the Catholic ritual, is that by the sign
Of the cross the powers of darkness
may not enter a place made sacred to
God. The most solemn portion of all
the ceremony was the bles sing of the
corner stone itself. Very Rev. J. III.
Then, of Wichita. who officiated.
outlined with trowel cross upon
the four sides of the stone. This GER
emony is an outward expression Of
faith in the Blessed Trinity. The
Ltany of the Saints was sung in
solemn tone after which the congrega-
tion and clergy marched around the
new building. A special benediction
was invoked upon the entire fOunda-
tiou, in the hope that Christ's king
dom on earth may ever remain un-
shaken. In a niche in the corner
stone was placed a small tin box.
This box contained some coin. list
:of donors. and an historical docu
ment. The rulers Of the worl d >at the
present day, President Roosevelt,
Pope Plus X, down to the trustees of
Hodgeman county were noted on this
parchment. The box was sealed with
cement and huge stone placed above
it.. Some one said that if in bun
dred years hence that deposit were
found a Gleason would bring it to
light. AS long as the blood continues
to circulate there will be desirable
residents in Hodgeman county Rev.
Then concluded the ceremony with
an address that was the admiration OF
all who heard him. When the build
ing is completed it will be solemnly
dedicated by the Rt. Rev. j. j. Hen
messy, of Wichita.
The Catholics of Hodgeman county
return sincere thanks to all who so
generously assisted them and trust
that the furtherance of religion may
lead to broader, better and happier
humanity. COMMUNICATED.

A Hospital" Town.

When the new hospital in Vienna, of
which the foundation stone was re-
Gently laid by the emperor of Austria,
is completed it will form a town in
itself, writes the correspondent of the
London Daily Mail. The total area
covered is 100000 square feet, and
there will be 40 separate buildings, of
which 80 will be clinics or hospitals and
the remaining eight will be devoted to
offices and residences for the staff.
All the clinics will have fiat roofs
with gardens, so that patients, par
ticularly consumptives, can be in the
open air as much as possible. Each
patient will have 1880 square feet space,
the largest proportion of space allotted
to a patient in any hospital in the
world
A correspondent of the Frankfurter
Zeitung says that the ultimate cost
will be from $7,OOO,OOO to $s.OOO,OOO.
The hospital will be on the pavilion"
or cottage" plan. Each pavilion with
it's sick wards, operating and lectur-
ing rooms, will form a hospital by it.

The hospital will have 230O beds. The
magnificent operating rooms will be
of new type. In the clinics for in
fectious diseases the patient will be
separated from the professor and the
students by a glass partition.
A number OF medical students will
live in the hospital for the purpose of
close study and observation. The lat

PHILIPPINE MONEY.
Currency Scheme Provided for the Isl.
and Possessions.

Washington. Aug. 24,--Wheu the new
currency system was proposed for the
Philippines there were predictions in
some quarters that the conservative
islanders could not be readily induced
to surrender the Mexican dollars and
the Spanish coin with which they had
been familiar for SO many years In
favor of the new Philippine peso pro-
posed by the commission. But re-
ports received here show that the
change had been made smoothly and
more expeditiously than was thought
possible. Colonel Edwards, chief of
the insular bureau, has just received
the following letter from Henry c. lde.
secretary of finance and justice of the
Philippines, dated Manila. July %,
bearing on this subject:
You will be interested in knowing
our currency scheme has made prog
ress since last wrote you. All the bus
mess houses have by common consent
put their bushes on the basis of the
new currency. In all the provinces, It'll
is found in free circulation and the
people now object strenuously to TAX
ing any other currency,
The old currency has been very
largely brought into the insular treas
ury for recoinage."
