ASKS FOR MORE MONEY
Matron at Hospital Wants More
Mcney-connmissioners May
Finish Work Today.

Mrs. Hodgson. the matron of the
county hospital, appeared before the
Cass county board of commissioners
this morning asking that her salary
be raised. After smuch discussion of
the question, the boord took the mat
ter under advisement
The board allowed number Of bills
this morning, including all the con-
tract bills for the county supplies. A
number of the bills submitted by one
Of the county officers were held up,
and the board feels rather disinclined
to pay them.
Chairman Kelley Of the board was
again present at the meeting this
morning for the first time this session
and presided over the gathering. 1t
is probable that the board viii finish
its work today and adjourn

Dor Day

At the request Of the Humane So
ciety, Governor Eberhart has desig-
mated Friday, April 81, next, as Bird

servation of bird life is of the great
est Importance for the protection Of
both trees and crops.
The same day will be observed in
many places throughout the United

to the planting of trees, school chill
dren will be instructed on topics re-
lating to birds and their usefulness.

Grain Letter.

Chicago, March 8. Wheat-The
market opened steady to shade easier
and ruled Arm during the greater part
Of the session. Northwestern markets
we're firm, Minneapolis showing the
greater strength. The market was Of
a nervous character, with locals in
clined to the buying side. Pending the
government report due on March s.
we are inclined to look for market
of a trading character.

News About
Women
A REAL CLUB FOR UP TO DATE
WOMEN - RADcLlFFE's CHAM.
PIoN ATHLETE.

A T last American women are to have
a real club of their own, with a
lounging and smoking room, just as
they do in London. Mrs. Adelaide
johnson is the organizer of this move
ment, and she intends to start branch
of the Lyceum club of Lordon.
Mrs Johnson is sculptor, with
studio in Rome and one in New York
city.
The club is to be composed of those
seriously interested in art literature,
music and science
A fine clubhouse, with reception
rooms and music and card rooms, not
to speak of dining rooms, is to be the
scene of weekly dinners at which ce-
lebritles will be entertained.
A system of bureaus will be founded
to watch and further the interests of
the different professions of the MEM
bers.
Authors can have their manuscripts
placed before the publishers through
the bureau. Painters and sculptors
will have exhibitions of their work.
Among the prominent women inter-
ested in the club are Mrs. Mary Will
kins Freeman, Miss Alice Morse Earle.
Miss Jeanette Glider, Miss Elizabeth
Jordan, Miss Elisabeth Marbury. Mrs.
Ruth McEnery Stuart, Mrs. burton
Harrison, Mrs. May Wright sewaII,
Mrs. Alice Hogan Rice, Miss Caroline
Hazard and Miss WooIley.
The foremost athlete Radcliffe col
fege has had in it's whole history u.s.
Miss Frances Amy Perry. She has
/, cQuired the title of champion athlete
81 the college by defeating the best of
her college mates in the recent ath-
ietic meet
Miss Perry is member of the uni-
gersity baseball team, in which she
flays shortstop with great cleverness.
l;he is star of the basketball team
and fine golfer and swimmer.
She Is also vice president of her
elass and member OF the Radcliffe
Musical association as WELL
81 think that a college girl can make
poth athletics and her studies count"
gays Miss Perry System in every
Thing, however, Is most essential In
rome cases the college girl neglects her
studies for athletics, but this need not
be. Nothing could be worse. There
Is, in fact. always a happy medium Of
study work and play work which can
be attained and maintained.
There is no question that a girl
who takes an active part in the sports
pf her college is better fitted to make
b success Of her academic courses.
What Is more helpful to the woman
entering upon several hours of close
and concentrating study than the clear
eye and the clear. sound mind that en-
sue upon one pr two tough hours of
fxertion upon the athletic field or In
me gymnasium? Athletics to me IS in
deed an all important adjunct to hap
uineSs."

proclamation was engrossed Mr.. Sew

tary of state under his father, Will
liam H. Seward, was sent with the

the signature of President Lincoln.
When he arrived there he found Mr..
Lincoln occupied with a reception,
which detained him two or three
hours. At the end of this, the presi-
dent entered the room where Mr.. Sew
ard was waiting, and, greeting him
cordially, asked him, well Mr.. AS
sistant Secretary, what can I do for
you today?" 81 have here" said Mr..
Seward, "a document I bring to. you
for your signature" Mr.. Lincoln took
the proclamation and, observing what
it was, his face grew grave and he
passed up and down the room, Wig

Finally he said: IT have been shaking

ton OF becoming settlers in that coun-
try. OF this number about 10000
were from the United States, the bal
ance being from the British Isles and
Northern Europe. It will thus be seen
that the sturdy farming element that
has gone forward from the United
States is being splendidly supplement-
ed by an equally sturdy settlement
from across the seas. The lure of
Canadian wheat, oats, barley and fax
grown on the rich prairie of Western
Canada is constantly attracting more
and more, and year by year the tide
Of immigrants to the Western Canada
plains increases; there is no ebb to
this tide. The Canadian authorities
are not surprised at the number from
the United States being as large as it
is but they did not look for so large an
immigration from the old countries.
Still, they will not be found unpre-
pared. Reception halls are in readi-
ness at all important points in Mani
toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, sur
veyors were at work during the past
season opening up new districts on

homesteads Of 100 acres each, rail-
ways have been projecting laterals
from their main lines, and every pro-
vision has been taken to accommo-
date the newcomer. A recent dis
patch from Antwerp reads: "The d.
version of European emigration from
the United States to Canada is said
to be seriously affecting the Atlantic
steamship lines. The Red Star today
gives up to the America-Can line

steamers afoat, the Cortland and the
Samland. These vessels heretofore
in the Antwerp-New York service are
now to be operated from Rotterdam to
Canadian ports"
On the date Of the above dispatch
word came to the immigration branch
that the Vanguard of the 1911 army
Of United States settlers reached Win
nipeg at 1870 o'clock this morning.
There was q solid train load of eff

colonist sleepers attached to the train,
which contained the members of Is

come north prepared to 60 right on

thing that experience has shown is
necessary to make a start on virgin
prairie. In addition to machinery and
household effects there were a large
number of horses and cattle. Some of
the farmers had also brought along
gas tractors, which will be put right
to work on ground breaking"
One Of the agents Of the Canadian
government advises that it would ap-
pear as if each month of the present
year would show a large increase sver
the past year. The demand for the
literature Of the department, describ-
ing the country and it's resources, is
greater than 1t ever has been.

Sounds Annoying.

that in about 2S0 years, when the
worlds population exceeds 5,994, 0OO,.
600, the earth will be unable to find
nourishment for her people, and they
will be forced either to cannibalism
or starvation.
