the change, a change which has been
sought by a large proportion of the
membership for two or three years.
but one that was vigorously opposed
by the minority. Now that the change
has been agreed to and only lacks the
regulation formalities to complete it,
the membership practically TO a man,
realizes that it was. the thing to do.
For practically year the committee
on rules of the exchange, consisting of
W. II. Tibbals, chairman, w. II. Alex
ander and f. G.. Woolley, jr have
worked assiduously in the compilation
OF a set of rules that would meet the
requirements Of the association. The
groundwork for these was found in the
rules governing the membership of the
Boston and other large eastern ex-
changes, and Chairman Tibbals states
that the Peorganized institution will
hereafter follow the practices and con-
troll its membership in much the same
manner that the eastern exchanges do.
As an Incorporation every membership
was represented by a share of stock in
the company" and there was no such
thing as imposing heavy penalties for
infractiOn of the rules and enforcing
them. 1t was impossible to expel a
member for any cause, and there were
one hundred and one other reasons
why the old plan should be relegated
to the rear and the institution placed
on a higher plane of efficiency and mu-
tuaI obligation between man and man
in the transaction of business.
During the past year, in anticipation
OF this important change, some big
men in the financial and mining world
have been added to the membership
OF the exchange, and it may now right
FULLY claim the distinction Of standing
as the peer, at least, of any like insti-
tuition in the United States. Last year,
Notwithstanding the financial depres-
sion and the hard road that all ex-
changes had to travel, the local insti-
tuition did approximately $4,000, 900
worth of business, and not a single
member was crowded to the wall.
Local brokers formed the first asso-
citation to do business here in 1896,
though James A. Pollock and a few
others were trading in an individual
way earlier than that. In 1899 the in
corporation that is now going out of
existence was formed, and seventy
shares in it were eventually sold at a
figure. Seats have sold with
in week for s1,7O0, and the price has
been well over $1,000 during the past
year. The membership of seventy, it
is understood, is not to be increased,
and it will not be long till member
ships will be at a premium over pres
ent prices.
In the election which. by resolution
previously adopted, made those chosen
the first directors of the new associa-
ton, as we'll as the successors of the
present board, there were but few
changes from the list that governed
last year. The ticket that went through
on the first ballot was as follows:
James A Pollock, w ]. Browning. J.
L. Hamilton, w. H, Tibbals, H. W.
Doscher, Fred r. Davis. S. r. Neel, w. |
II. Child and w. D. Nebeker. 1t is ex-
pected that the new board will meet
and organize tomorrow afternoon.

were furnished:
Boston, Jan. 25.-The local market again
broke away from the influence of Anal

Consolidated and Copper Range showed
good advances. North Butte was weak on
selling by people who are putting the

shares. The buying of Utah Consolidat-
ed is from New York and would indicate
higher prices.

Society Today Just as Wholesome as in
Past, Says Mrs. George CORVALLIS West
Takes Pointed Views of Mrs.
William Ast0r as Basis
of Comparison.

New York society is so small, compar
ed to the great numbers which com
prise that of London, 1t seems incred-
idle that those women who. by theil
assured position and knowledge Of
the world, have the right to speak
should not be able to WELD some au-
thority on matters of taste.
As an instance of this, a certain SEN
ator, who shall be nameless, was spend.
Ing a weekend with Lord and Lady
- at their charming house on the
Thames. After an excellent and pro-
longed luncheon, the whole party went
out in a launch on the river. The
painstalking hostess began to point oui
to the senator all the places of inter
est they were passing, giving chapter
and verse as to their inhabitants. After
a bit the senator, who was secretly
bored, If the truth were known, said
with a sweet smile, II guess I could
sleep were 1 let" The company
laughed and the hostess, not in the
least offended, placed a cushion under
his head, leaving him to enjoy his
forty winks undisturbed. Uncouth as
this was, no one resented it.
Mrs. Aston emphasizes the difficulty
of having a salon in New York such a.
existed in Paris and London in the
eighteenth century, but these salons
have long ceased to be possible ir
either capital. 1t may be true that Il
is easier to bring intellectual people
together In London than in New York

Former Jennie Jerome Replies
to Recent Attacks Made
on Smart Set.
BY MRS. GEORGE CORVALLIS
WEST,
Former Lady Randolph Church


WEST,
Former Lady Randolph Churchill.
WI 5r ODERN society and what Is vul
k&H carly dubbed the Smart Set
ss'~ both in New York and il
London, are constantly being arraigned.
criticised and judged before tribunals
which often are obliged to form opin-
ions of their merits or dement's from
the neutrality-suspicious., If the truth were
known, secretly envying their "joie dc
vivre'' and their so-called wicked ways
The censure of these critics may in
deed be taken with several grains OF
salt. On the other hand, when the In
dictment emanates from one competent
to judge and speak it behooves al
whom it may to listen and
take heed.
The best society does not necessarily
mean this Smart Set" it certainly
does not In London, and lately in an
interview which las aroused much in
terest on both sides of the Atlantic,
Mrs. William Astor tells us thai the
who have the greatest influence
and who give New York society its
tone are almost unknown outside their
own circle. Her views are expressed
most freely as to the iniquities of GER
tain would-be fashionable women whose
empty lives and ~ostentatious, not to
say vulgar, entertainments are natural
" condemned by all sensible and right
thinking people.
Everything considered, however. mod

Power Of Money.
Money-much money. they are told
is the open sesame to those magic por-
tails which are their goal-and If this
is so in their estimation, can they be
blamed for trying by every to
demonstrate their wealth? They have
yet to learn that a vulgar and inartis-
tic display of it defeats it's own ends
The very people they wish to impress
are disguised and refuse to know or
meet them. And yet it may be only
ignorance, not viciousness, from which
they are suffering. In Mr.. Barrels

couth ~Scotchman, says to Lady Sybil
