Through the abstracts and brief chron-
ices Of timer
The Woman's Club, after u
brief intermission during the
Christmas holidays, missing but
one meeting, has resumed work in
earnest and the study Of Shakes
peare and that great drama, "The
Merchant of Venice" is again
providing intellectual diversion
and rare entertainment for the
members for this literary organi-
zation.
The meeting last week was held
with Mrs. A. j. Baker and Mrs.
Matthews as leader proved her
self thoroughly conversant with
the lesson and the side lights
bearing upon it. Her handling
of the meeting was pronounced
as most excellent. The roll call
was answered with timely and APP
propriate New Year quotations.
The history of the world in the
period of time denominated as
the Elizabethian Era was con-
tinued and Act V of the lesson
was concluded, The paper of the
afternoon was contributed aby
Mrs. w. S. Cunningham, and its
subject "Shakespeare's Use of
The Supernatural" afforded wide
scope for the display of those in
tollectual powers possessed in
such a large degree by this MEM
Der. The paper showed the result
of deep study and was very enter
tanning
IF all the year were holidays
TO sport would be as tedious as to
work. "
Yesterdays meeting of the club
was held with Mrs. II. j. Cham
berlain. Mrs. Brown f. Lee was
leader and she proved herself in
this, as in all topics of literary or
artistic subjects which are dis
cussed, a most capable leader,
showing the results of earnest
study properly applied. No
meetings can be more interesting
or more thoroughly enjoyed than
those presided over by this charm
ing and beloved member.
The roll call was answered with
quotations from the play in which
each member proved quite equal
to the occasion. A resume of the
entire play was then taken up
by the entire class and many new
points were brought out, proving
logically and literally the truth of
the old adages "Two heads are
better than one" and "In n multi
tude of counselors there is much
wisdom.
The afternoons paper, Gam
Gus Actors in Shakespearean
Rolls" by Mrs. S. +. Taylor, was
a source of pleasure and enter
tainment to all members present.
The list of the worlds great
Thespians who have appeared in

The club hopes by the study of
literature to awaken u thorough
and satisfying interest in this
purest of rustimes not only in the
minds of those old in years. but
preparation of the minds of the
coming men and women for the
love of the beautiful in art and
literature studies that make for
the best that the nature of man
kind may comprehend.
The club will next take up the
study of Macbeth.

THE ADVANCE IN SILVER.

Without doubt the stability of the
price of the white metal and the cause
of it climbing over the 60-cent mark,
has been the act of the Mexican Gov
eminent in placing gold value Of so
cents on the Mexican milled dollar.
This simple announcement caused the
price to reach the 60-cent mark. and
the fact that Mexico is TO borrow
$40. COO 900 in gold TO fern reserve
fund with which to protect the value
of the dollar was cause which con-
triuted to the further ascendancy OF
silver. The fact that China has allied
with the Mexican Government, and
that she is a purchaser Of Mexican
dollars at the increased pirce, and the
decision of the Indian Council of Lon
don to make purchases Of silver at
stated intervals, have all had the eff
feet of causing the rise, and it will not
be surprising to see silver quoted at
65 cents per ounce in the near future
while 70 cents is a possibllity.-Ore

sion The plan contemplates the
creation of a commission of three en-

Authority may be conferred upon the
president to utilize men in the en-

with the republic of Panama will be
directly in the hands of the president
