fired the opening guns in campaign
that is planned to put the Votes for
Women" advocates to rout. The meet
ing was held under the auspices of
the Womens National Anti-Suffrage
league. an organization quietly formed
some time ago, but Of which much will
probably be heard from now on. Mrs.
Humphry Ward occupied the chair and
Austen Chamberlain, Sir Edward Clarke
and several other notables were among
the speakers. Miss Bentley, the secre-
tary Of the league, aroused enthusiasm
by reporting that nearly one hundred
branches had already been organized
and that others were in process of or
ganization in cities and towns through
out the United Kingdom.

of course, no such legislation would be

I told the president not to consider me
any further in connection with the ap-

far as am concerned. The ministry to
Cuba is big enough for any one, but at

an office that would be a source of

steps after a conference with the presi-
dent, Il have been a stranger TO a bank
account, and 1t never made the slight
est difference to me whether I had 80
cents or $500 in my pocket I find my
self, after a long period of congrsssion-
al service, as poor as a church mouse.
Ehave arrived at the conclusion. calmly
and deliberately, that I owe it to my
family to see if I can not develop a
little talent as a money maker When
a man arrives at my age with nothing
saved up and with a numerous family,
It is time he should begin to think
about making some money for the rainy
day that is sure to come. have some

Mr.. Watson is closing up his affairs
here preparatory to returning to Indi-

home what place in Indiana offers the
best opening for him IN the practice of
law. He has good offers both at IN
dianapoIis and Terre Haute, but his in
cHnation is to remain at Nashville.
Regarding his visit to the White
house today, Mr.. Watson said:
The president sent for me to renew
his offer to make me minister to Cuba
He was kind enough to press me for a
favorable answer and to say to me that
OF all the men in the United States ne
preferred me for that office. He said
that he would hold the offer to suit my
convenience If I would indicate that !
very gratifying to me, and 1 thanked
him, but told him that he need not hold
the offer open five minutes for me, as
had made up my mind finally and
conclusively that I would not take the
place. I asked him II he had not al
ways been q poor man, and he replied
that he most certainly had. Then ]
inquired how long he thought a man as
poor as he or would last as minister
to Havana, where the minister must
furnish his own house, must keep up q
