Ladies' Equity Notes.

The Michigan Ladies Society OF
Equity has been called upon TO part
with one of its mem bers. For the
first time since our organization death
has entered our ranks and has taken
away one OF our bright young men,
bers, Miss Olive Button, whose death
came like a flash of lightning from a
clear sky-and she was gone. We
will miss her many times. No more
will we hear her voice In recitation or
song, where she was ever ready to
help, In the bright springtime of
youth, our Olive has closed her eyes,
ia the beautiful springtime, when the
earth Is fragrant with flowers and
bright with sunshine. To us it seems
mystery, but let us try to be resign
ed to Gods will and say, Thy will he
done, Oh Lord, not mine."

Joaquin Miller, the poet of the Sier-

rarely comes into San Francisco, but
when he does he is made a good deal

one of the guests at a rather formal
dinner at friends house where he
stayed overnight. His hostess had
known the poet since her childhood,
SO she felt privileged. next morning, to
discourse to him of the beauties of
the Partisan gown she had worn the
night before-beauties which seemed
to have escaped his observation.
Mr.. Miller listened to all that she
had to say and remained silent.
"But didn't you really like the
dress?" pleaded the lady.
"Well," replied the poet, 81 did like
part of it well enough"
The lady frightened.
