The failure of the governor Of
Minnesota to appear, as adver-
tised, at h e Federation of
Women's Clubs convention in
Sank Centre was quite generally
commented upon by delegates,
visitors and townspeople. Some
suggested that the governor
thought he could make more
friends and votes by talking at
county fairs, while some were SO
unkind as to suggest that His
Excellency did not care to face
the music and learn, at short
range, what the women thought
of his attitude ia the Whittier
investigation. After Spooner
had delivered his brOadside. the
wish was openly expressed that
the states chief executive ought
to have listened to that effort
from the platform. But what
ever the cause, the governor did
not come, and it is an open Sc
cret THAI good many of the
women did not like the slight Of
their invitation little bit.

Invention of the Lifeboat.

The most effective ear of life
saving in the event OF a storm is the
lifeboat, the first IN of which was
launched on the Thames on January
4, 1885, by Lionel Lukin, a coach
maker of an inland town near Lon
don. The first lifeboat was a Norway
yawl, which he had fitted with water
tight compartments, a heavy iron keel
and other essentials in buoyancy and
stability, which are the cardinal and
requisite features of lifeboats now.
