had luncheon, and she hao got the
tickets herself, she did accept his in

Greene became enthusiastic.

Idea by No Means New.

The object of New York's newest
club is to eat wisely but not too well.
That is, to educate housewives in the
domestic sciences. But this idea Is as
old as the hills and was tried by Bos-
ton years ago with more or less fail
ure. Clubs OF domestic science are all
over the United States now and one
can determine their value to society
by barking back to the old days of the
simple life when eating and the prepa-
ration Of food was not the main object
and the servant problem had not
started on its wild career.

chance to speak until they reached the

to picture to himself the practical re-

engine in one of the big power houses,
caused by shutting off of the feed

When he had done, there was a
moments stiffness; then came the long
sweep of applause that rang through
the chamber, and while the lieutenant
governor raped for order, men
crowded around Vernon and wrung his
hand, as he wiped his forehead with
his handkerchief. And then the roll
was called. 1t had not proceeded far
when there was that subtitle change In
the atmosphere which Is so easily rec
ognized by those who have acquired
the sense of political aeroscepsy; the
change that betokens some new, un.
expected and dangerous maneuver.
Braidwood had come over from the
house. His face, framed in its dark
beard, was stern and serious. He
whispered an instant to Porter, the
senate leader. Porter rose.
"Mr. President" he said.
The lieutenant governor was looking
at him expectantly.

lieutenant governor said.

After the adjournment Vernon

her congratulations, but she was silent

him, q"
you laid out very broad and COM
prehensive ground for yourself" the
old man continued, but unfortunately
you did not cover 1t. You should have
developed your subject logically, as |
had hopes, indeed, In the beginning
you were going to do. An argument
based on principle would have been
more to the point than an appeal to
the passions / think Miss Greene will
agree with me. l am sorry you did not
acquaint me with your intention of
addressing the senate on this impor-
tant measure; would very much have
liked to confer with you about what
you were going to say It is not con-
templated by those in the reform
movement that the charms of woman
shall be advanced as the reason for
her right to equal suffrage with man.
It is purely a matter of cold, abstract
Justice. Now, for instance" the doctor
laid his finger IN his palm, and began
to speak didactically, "as I have
pointed out to the house, whatever the
power or the principle that gives to
man his right to make the law that
governs him, to woman 1t gives the
same right. In 81 states the married
mother has no right to her children;
In 16 the wife has no right to her own
earnings; In eight she has no separate
right to her property: In seven"

CUBANS ARE HAVING TROUBLE
Gomez Announces He VIII Make Ap.
polntments Without Considering
Any Faction.

Havana.-Not since the downfall OF
the administration of President Palma
has the political atmosphere of Cuba
been more obscured and more laden
with suggestions of trouble than now.
The re-established republic is
scarcely nine months old, and already
runors are persistent that some way
is being sought to secure the retire
ment of President Gomez, either by
persuasion or compulsion, and to
place Vice-President Zayas at tho
head of the nation.
Probably the most serious condition
that the president faces is that result
Ing from the continued failure of eff
forts TO effect complete fusion be-
tween his partisans and those of Vice.
President Zayas. For three years
| negotiations to this end have been In
progress. and at least half dozen
times announcement has been made or
their success. In the presidential cam
| paign there was truce, but, with the
| beginning of the distribution of offices
under the new administration, mutual
distrust was re-established.
A few days ago General Gomez
startled liberal leaders In letter In
which he stated that. so far as he was
officially concerned, he had decided to
consider the fusion as an accomplished
fact and In view of this. he would
make appointments to his cabinet
without reference to the particular
faction of the liberal party to which
the appointee might have belonged.
