ranged for the convention. The topics
indicate an increasingly wide range of
affairs in which the clubwomen are
taking not only an interest but an
active part. There was time, for
instance, when the New York City
Federation of Women's Clubs could
report on all of it's activities at each
convention, but now, says Mrs. Eugene
J. Grant, the president of the city
federation, it takes the six conven-
tons of an administration to get
through the reports of the 38 commit
tees which have developed.
Federati0n's Object Broad.
The general federation has as it's
broad object the furtherance of every
movement in the interest of women,
children and mankind in general, and
the program calls for reports and dis
cussion by committees on art, child
welfare, civics, civil service reforms,
home economics, conversation, indus
trial and social questions, legislation,
education, literature, music, public
health-and under these headings
come subjects ranging all the way
from moving pictures to international
relationships. One important an
nouncement that will be made at the
convention is the fact that the fedora
ton has raised an endowment of
100000. The plan to raise such
sum was voted at the Cincinnati con-
vention in 1910, and now that the sum
has been realized it will be invested
by trustees, the interesting being used
to help carry on the work of the gen.
eral federation.
Many women prominent in New
York club life will take their turns as
hostesses to various sections of the
great gathering. Mrs. Thomas A.
Edison, for instance, will be one of the
first to entertain the women, at her
home at Llewellyn Park, N. ]. Mrs.
John Hays Hammond will be hostess
at luncheon to all of the state pres
idents. Mrs. William Tod Helmuth
will be hostess at pioneer clubwom-
ems dinner, and in addition there will
be luncheons and dinners and other
entertainments at various women's
clubs. A Shakespeare masque, a re-
ception at the Metropolitan Museum
of Art and number Of other outside
features will be included.

SUSPECT GERMANS
DYNAM|1ED THE
LISBON ARSENAL

Lisbon, Portugal, May 20-Corres-
pcndence of The Associated Press)-
Although the origin of the fire which
destroyed the naval arsenal in Lis
bon on April 10 is still undetermined
It is said that the fire was foretold
several weeks before it occurred in
a warning letter to the government,
supposedly from Germans, threaten
ing long series of reprisals if Portu-
gal persisted in participation in the
war. 1t is also reported that the
minister of war, Major Norton de Mat
tos, has been threatened with death
If he persisted in the inquiry as to
the origin of the arsenal fire Or any
similar disaster.
The burning of the arsenal was
coincident with the sinking of the
Norwe gian steamship Terje Vixen as
was briefly reported by cable. The
vessel had on board $4,000 tons of
wheat from America. Her sinking in
Cascae Bay. fifteen miles west of Lib
son, is the first indication of Ger
man submarine activity along the
received previously from London that
d ICI HAL SUBMARINE attack against
the Portuguese coast might be at
tempted and Captain Leotin do Rego
commander of the Portuguese naval
division anchored in the Tagus,
recently learned of the presence OF
two German submarines which are
supposed to have scattred mines in
the neighborhood of the bar. 1t does
not appear TO be established whether
the sinking OF the Terje Vixen was
due to mine or torpedo. but it is be-
lieved that j.. was due to the latter.
The vessel was three and half miles
from the bar, when three explosions
occurred, and the vessel sank within
half an hour. There was just time
for the twenty-seven men aboard to
get away safely.
The loss in the burning of the
naval arsenal is important. not only
because the arsenal buildings were
some of the finest of the new Lisbon
but the naval MUSEUM there con-
1ained "a wonderful collection of
models of ships. ancient caravels and
modern vessels of all types. The
banqueting hall in connection with
the naval school. which was also de-
stroyed, was one of the sights OF
Lisbon. being of immense size and
elegant in architecture.

In the words of Miss Lutte E.

federation, "the business of being a
clubwoman is a big business and is
getting to be a bigger business every
day." This is apparent from the
elaborate porgram that has been ar

10000 OR MORE
women TO ATTEND
&. f. v. {. MEET
Delegates from All States
Will Represent 100000
Club Women.

New York, May 19.-The clubwom-
en- of the country, two and half mil
lion of whom are represented in the
General Federation of Women's Clubs,
have perfected plan for the greatest
convention in the history of the fed
GRAFTON in New York next week. The
dates are May % to June g. During
those II days it is expected that fully
10000 women representing clubs in
every state in the union, as we'll as
some. from Alaska, Japan, England,
Hawaii and South America will attend
many of the innumerable meetings
and social functions that have been
arranged.
New York city this year is said to
have more than 500 different conven-
tons on it's calendar, but from all in
dications none will equal in attendance
the gathering of women. Special
sentiment is attached to the women's
convention by the fact that although
the federation was founded here 26
years ago, It is the first time since
then that the women have met in New
York. It was Jennie June" Croly,
one of the founders of the Sorosis,
the pioneer woman's club in this coun-
try, who initiated the idea of a gen.
eral convention of women's clubs in
1889, and the outcome of this was the
holding of the first convention of the
general federation in New York in
the following year when 60 clubs were
represented by 1875 delegates and the
Sorosis was hostess.
Chicago, Philadelphia, Louisville,
Denver, Milwaukee, Los Angeles, St.
Louis, st. Paul, Cincinnati, San Fran
cisco and Chicago again, have been
the convention cities in the order
named. The Forthcoming convention,
the thirteenth, will have Sorosis again
New York state and city declarations,
make the gathering notable one in
every direction.
The main drill hall of the armory
York National guard, which will ac-
will be the principal meeting place.
The colonel's room and other officers
quarters will be turned over to the
women for headquarters. The armory
is located at Sixty-sixth street, oc-
cupying an entire block between Lex
ington and Park avenues.
Fight for Presidency.
The chief executive is Mrs. Percy |
V. Pennybacker, the president of the
federation, whose home is in Austin,
Tex, but who, for the past two years,
has been travelling throughout the
country, keeping in personal contact
with the activities of women's clubs.
She will not be. a candidate for re-
election this year, however, and the

Don't Hide Them With q Veil-Re-
move Them With the Othine
Prescription.

This prescription Cor the removal OF
freckles was written by a prominent
physician and is usually so successful
in removing freckles and giving a
clear, beautiful complexion that it is
sold by any druggist under guarantee
to refund the money if it fails.
Don't hide your freckles under a
veil; get an ounce of othine and re-
move them. Even the first few ap-
plications should show wonderful
improvement, some OF the lighter
freckles vanishing entirely.
Be sure to ask the druggist for the
double strength othine; 1t is this that
is sold on the meney-back guaran-

of silver-gold ore from f. w. King,
for tie company. Inc
specimen was taken from a wluze
which is being sunk from the 800
foot level at a point where the VIC

ton. Mr.. King writes that the last
two mine wars of ore taken out or

saved $3.50 per ton. The last
round of shots broke five feet wide

making off into both walls.
Mr.. King also reports a new
strike on the surface OF the BLACK

MAKES BIG SHIPMENT

The U. S. Tungsten corporation
last Saturday shipped 265 sacks of
concentrates by express to their rep
r~esentatives in the east. This ship
ment closes a previous contract
made by the company, and since
which it has suspended active oper-
ations at its property and milling
plant. 1t is expected, however,
that a new contract will be secured
in the near future, when operations
will be resumed. The price of
tungsten is very low, but this
shuts off production, hence it is ex-
pected that better prices will soon
prevail, as the consumption in this
country is several hundred times
greater than it was w years ago

company in q decision handed down
by Judge H. =. Dewnirst of the SUI
perlor court in the ejectment suit
of r. Waymire and Mrs. e. Thomp-
son against the corporation.
The suit for the possession of
the potash lands at Searles Lake at
tracted special attention because of
the increased demand for potash in
the manufacture of explosives since
the European war began.
Although potash is now being OBJ
tanned from kelp, a seaweed, it is
said the demand is much larger
than the supply and development
work has exhausted many of the
deposits in the United States.
Long litigation for possession of
the Searles Lake claims has pre-
vented their being worked generally.
However, machinery has been in
stalled and the claims are be-
lieved to contain one of the largest
deposits of potash ever discovered
in this country.
The so-called potash suit was
instituted by n of two groups of
