COLLEGE FOR WORKING WOMEN.
Worthy Scheme for Higher Education
That Is Unique.


In London there is a college for
working women. the aim OF which is
to supply women occupied during the
day with higher education than is
generally within their reach. The
whole of the teaching stan is unpaid.
and the college. which has existed for
80 years. owes its being and its pres
ent success to Miss Frances Martin.
who Is its honorary secretary. and
has devoted lifetime to its interests.
In connection with the college there
is benefit club. penny bank and
the rooms in the college for reading
d~refreshment practically make it a
delightful clubhouse for girls who are
engaged during the day. There are
several social clubs, and during the
winter monthly dances and Dorcas
meetings are held. says the Chicago
Daily News. The special classes in
ambulance and dressmaking are ex-
ceedingly popular with the members
and in the former subject at the last
examination every one of the candi-
dates succeeded in taking her certi-
ficate.

Eseanes Their Foo, Friends.

A young couple married the other
day in Brooklyn disappeared in spec
tacular fashion from the gaze of
the guests who had gone over from
New York to view the ceremony. AZ
they were preparing to depart two
beautiful, spirited horses were brought
to the front of the house. The
happy pair appeared in immaculate
riding dress. mounted the horses,
which were wedding presents, and
rode away at a gait rapid enough to
avoid the showers of rice and dis
carded footwear and the usual de-
lay that attends such departures in
carriage or motor car. In spite
of the general impression of the
guests. the blissful pair did not ride
far. They changed the horses for an
automobile short distance away.

Well Gives Light and Heat.

Pierre, S. D.-From an artesian
well. which was bored by contractors
for the railroad company. is pouring
an ample supply of water, but as its
temperature is 1856 degrees, it is too
hot for the uses intended The same
pipe is also supplying an abundant
flow of gas, and 1T has been suggest
ed that houses near the well be piped
to supply the residents with the wa
ter for heating and gas for lighting.
Every well sunk in this section of the
state emphasizes the fact that an
abundant gas supply exists if 1t can
be located, and 1t is expected to send
the drill deep enough in the well to
be sunk at the Indian school in this
city to give the matter at least par.

SILVER STILL CLIMBING.
Mr.. Simon Guggenheim Says White
Metal is Again to Reach
Hidh Rrice

What seems like a prophecy founded
on a knowledge of the facts is the
statement made by Simon Guggenheim
OF Denver, several months ago, with
regard to the price of silver. Tho
white metal Is stu climbing upward,
and is now above 10 cents an ounce.
Mr.. Guggenh elm, who Is intensely
loyal to Colorado and all her interests.
made the announcement some time
ago that silver would soon advance
and the mining of that metal be once
more profitable in the once great sill
yer camps.
Colorado il magnificent state"
said Mr.. Guggenheim, who has been
active in her development for eighteen
years. And there lis every Indication
that silver mining Is again to be profit
able In the famous camps we were SO
proud of in the old days. In very
few months silver will reach 10 cents,
with every prospect of going higher"
This prediction has come true to the
delight of every loyal Coloradan. Mr..
Guggenheim's companies have been
active since silver was demonetized to
restore the metal to at least something
near its former value. 1t begins to
look as II what was attempted for
Colorado by political platforms when
silver was an tissue" will be done by
persistent work along business lines
by men who are able to exert powerful
influence in behalf of whatever plans
for helping Colorado they have In

SHARE THE PROFITS.
A smeIter Company Gives It's En-
pioyes Part Of the Earnings

One of the most successful plans for
sharing profits with employees is being
conducted by the American Smelling &c
Refining Company, which is managed
by the Guggenhcims. This company
has large number of employees In
Colorado, and to each of them Is given
each year a pro rata division OF such
net profits of the company as remain
after dividends are paid on its PEE
ferred and common stock. This year
the amount distributed was 100000 at
all its plants
This profit sharing plan originated
with the executive committee of the
company, for the purpose OF attach
ing its employees more closely to their
work. In some large companies sys-
TEN of pensions are resortcd to, but
the plan of sharing profits appears to
make each employe feel additional re-
sponsibillty, and regard the interests
OF the company as his own. The m
nual cost of this plan to the company
means nearly one-half million dollars.
and is much more expensive than PEN
stons, but at the same time is much
more satisfactory.
On the pay roll of the Guggenheim
interests in Colorado are some of tho
most contented and loyal working men
that can be found anywhere in tho
country. The result of the plan OF
profit sharing is at once the delight
and astonishment of students of indus
tidal conditions, who have pondered
deeply on the problem OF dividing
earnings with labor This is one OF
the numerous instances where bust
ness men took up and settled an in
dustrial problem to the satisfaction Of
labor, while mere theorists were
bafhed by the perplexing situation.
The GuggenheIms, while up to date
business men in every respect, stlIi
adhered to the good old.fashioned idea
that an employer is In a measure re-
sponsible for those who work for him
To this. plan of dealing with laborins
men they attribute no small part OF
their success.

CITY OF CONVENTIONS
OVER HUNDRED GATHERINGS
HELD IN CHICAGO DURING YEAR
Nearly Every Industry and Profession
Represented in the Meetinss-In-
dueements That Other
Places Lack.


Chicaso-chicago this year is the
convention city of the world One
hundred and seven organizations, re-
presenting almost every industry and
profession in the United States, have
met here during the last few months,
bringing, II is estimated, almost $4,000
visitors, who filled the hotels to over
flowing and made the bonifaces many
thousands of dollars richer. Almost
every business and profession was re-
presented. from undertakers and
geons.
There was hardly a hotel of
any pretensions that did not have its
lobby filed with ribboned and badge
decorated delegates to at least a half
dozen conventions. league meetings or
association gatherings.
While the majority of the conven-
tions were held in the hotels at which
the delegates stopped. others met In
halls and churches in different parts
of the city.
Credit for making Chicago the con
vention city must be given to the
Chicago Commercial association.
which carried on n vigorous campaign
for several Every organization in the
country that meets in convention was
communicated with.
All the advantages of the city were
laid before them. The association
exerted everyainfuence to secure low
rates from the railroads and succeed

conventions. coming from east. west
and south.
Most Of the conventions we're held
during July. August and September
During those months every one of the
hotels had a convention "on" each
week. Fer October there were also
many scheduled. while several are yet
to be held in November
To educational societies and or
ganizations Chicago offers advantages
equaled by no other city in the west.
The public library, Art institute and
Field museum offer opportunities for
research only equaled by the Smith
sonian museum and Congressional IL
brary at Washington.
Another almost natural advantage
Chicago possesses. which is the most
important feature of a convention city
is it's vast capacity to house and feed
thousands of visitors at moments
notice.
Although every one of the down
town hotels be filled there are scores
of high-class hotels throughout the
city that can with ease handle the
overflow
Whea these are crowded there re-
mains the many apartment houses
that accommodate transients, and II
these ever become congested the
thousands of boarding and rooming
houses can always find room for un-
told numbers.
Among the most notable of the con
ventions held were those of the Ma
tional Drcssmakers' association, the
League of American Municipalities,
National Purity league. National I'm
dertakers' association. International
Railway Blacksmiths' association, the
National Theosophists' society. post
masters of the fourth class, American
Newsdealers' association, National
Spiritualists' association, the Newton
society, National Travelling Engineers
association besides the various or
ganizations and federations of wo-
mems clubs.
