Boston's First Womans' Club.

An assemblage of women for any quilting was sufficiently rare in the Boston of 1636; and an assemblage such as Mistress Anne Hutchinson gathered in her parlor-kitchen' where she eXpounded the sermons of John Cotton, soon attracted the dis approval of the Puritan clergy and cit izens. To attend Mistress Hutchin- sons conversazioni, however, became especially the fashion for all female Boston, writes Irving B. Richman, in Rhode Island, it's Making and it's Meaning" but with results for the nimble-Witted and earnest Mistress Hutchinson that soon made her an ob- ject of criticism
 The first Cambridge synod resolv- ed. "that though women might meet, some few together, to pray and edify one another, yet, that such set as semblv as was then in practise at Boston where sixty or more did meet every week, and one woman, ill a
 prophetical way by resolving ques-
 tions of doctrine and expoundins
 scripture took upon her the whole exercise, was disorderly and withoa rule."
 But Anne Hutchinson possessed
 .'nimble wit and a voluble tongue
 according to Governor Winthrop, ant . when finally brought before the Mass achusetts General Court a gathering
 comprising the best bigotry and brail of Massachusetts, to be tried for he opinions. she was capable of manaS
 ing her case alone.
 , The court made repeated efforts t draw from the culprit something Una n would justify it in punishing her. bu in every case was baffled by her re plies. Nevertheless, it was voted tha she be banished, and she and her fol lowers and defenders were expelle . from Massachusetts.

An interesting account of Boston, s first woman's club known as Con versazioni" is given in the Thanks giving issue of the Youths Gompan- ion and shows such marked Contrast between the status of the American '.club woman" ill 1636 and 1908, as to make it interesting reading matter, especially to some of our bright club women of today.

this they we're supporter by Messrs.
Bonynge of Colorado and Cushman of
Washington. These embraced charges
that the bureau had created timber
monopolies in favor of large corpora
tons, illegally assumed jurisdiction

ures in order to obtain large appro-
priations from congress. The work
of the bureau was vigorously defend
ed by Messrs. Hepburn of Iowa and
Scott of Kansas.
