ARCHBISHOP. VAUGHAN DEAD Noted E h Prelate Passes Away After an Illness of Three Meonths. LONDON, June 20.—Very Rev. Herbert Vapghan, cardinal and archbishop. of Westminster, died at midnight. The cardinal, who had been sinking for some weeks from heart disease and dropsy, died peacefully. His death was not ex- pected 8o soon. Yesterday he was wheeled In a bath chalr about the corridors of St. Joseph's college, which he founded with money which he eollected in America and elsewhere. On the previous day he appeared in the college chapel in full cardinal robes and made a farewell address to his bishops and priests. His remains will lio in state in the cathedral at Westminster and will be buried at St. Joseph's college. ROME, June 2.—By order of Dr. Lap- poni the news of Cardinal Vaughan's death was withheld from the pope, the doctor fearing its effect owing to his. holiness' special affection for the dead cardinal. It not until this evening that the pontift roed that Cardinal Vaughan was dead. e was extremely grieved and Insisted on neeling for a long time before retiring, praying for the repose of his soul. Cardinal Vaughan was born April 15, 1822, He became bishop of Westminster in 182 He had been fll more than three months. Late in March it was thought he could not survive more than a few days. PLENTY OF WORK FOR MEN Wheat Fields of K road C nd Rall- The local employment agencies are 8F" ranging to hamdle the ual band of harvesters for Kansas points. In the western and central parts of Kansas the wheat crop s very good this year and the agents expect to ship out about 1,500 men beginning June 3, when the harvesting rates are given by the railroads. The demand for men for work on the comstruction gangs still continues brisk and from 100 to 30 men are being sent out of town every day to the various con- struction camps. Fortunately the supply of men is just about equal to the demand and the employment agencles are running algng with little trouble.

WOMAN IN CLUB AND CHARITY The man nowaciys, whether he be tdent of an exposition or omty the head of an ordinary family, wno imagines he can keep the bright, enterprising women of the community in the background while there s anything of educational import- ance going on, ls mistaken, and he has but to look at the situation in Louls to be convinced of the truth of this statement. When the Louisiana Purchase exposition reached the stage of appointing committees, President Francis and the rest were con- fronted with the problem of “disposing of the women,” and after much councll the plan for the Board of Lady Managers was evolved. Of all the plans made for the success of the exposition, this one was looked upon—by the men—as the triumph, and, in truth, it was clever, for with the most enterprising of all the enterprising women of St. Louls, Mrs. James Blair, as its president, it certainly looked as though the “board” was likely to accomplish the most difficult problem that had yet been presented—the management of the dear women themselves. But alas, like many another promise, it did mot turn out just as it had been planned. ptes In the first place, the name was not sug- gestive of the sort of activity that the women anticipated — that word “lady” looked suspicious—and before long the board began to inquire what it was to manage. For several months the women were put off with excuses, but it finally developed that their office was just what their name implied, “lady managers,” and if they got to manage anything it would probably be ladies, for certainly the exposi- tion authorities had no Intention of allow- ing them to manage anything else. Things looked a bit upset for a time and after learning that the men proposed to make no concessions the women began looking about to see what else might be done. In these days of woman's activity it aid not take long to decide upon & plan, and be- fore the unsuspeoting though temporarily victorious exposition managers kiew what Was up, & new woman's ctub had been organized—the St. Louls Woman's club by name. This did not loock embarrassing untfl it was announced that Mrs. James Blair was to be the president of the club and that Mrs. Francis was vice president. The club includes a selected membership of 20 of St. Louls' wealthiest and most in- fluential women, and at onee secured one of the finest old mansions in town as a club house. Even this equipment was not suf- clent, and an addition is to be made In the form of a ball room that is to cost $10,000 and which when completed will be one of the finest ball rooms in Bt. Louts, not even barring those of the fashionable men's clubs and the hotels. Now it hap- pens that it was the appomtment of com- mittees for entertaining purposes that the national committee had particularly denled the Board of Lady Managers, and when the full facts regarding the 8t. Louls Woman's club came out the shoe was all on the other foot. The women say they will be able to “make out” without an appropria- tion, thanks to their business experience, and the fact that the club dues will be $50 a year and the initiation fee $100. If any of the authority-granting powers had any doubts before regarding the abllity of the St. Louls women to manage things, it is safe to say that they have outgrown it— or will have done so, for with the im- pressive title of Board of Lady Managers, backed up with all of the authovity of a woman's club, it I8 safe to predict that the women will cut considerable figure dur- ing the exposition year after all. At the closing meeting of the Federation of the District of Columbia a report was made of the salaries pald the school teach- ers of the city of Washington, which, it appears, are not as large as in other cities of its size. A committee was appointed to investigate the condition with & view of remedying it if possible. A number of Boston clubs have united in another effort to keep the city streets clean. The assistance of the school children has been enlisted and a circular issued request- ing that they write essays on the subject. Eastern suffrage organizations are begin- ning to site the Nebraska Suftrage associ- ation as one of which women—and men, too—may well be proud. It is the educa- tive feature of the Nebraska work that is attracting attention and the liberal man- ner with which men are disposed to listen to the argument seems surprising as well as gratifylng to the easterners. Not only in Nebraska, but in Montana and other states where Miss Gail Laughlin has inter- ested the members of the labor unions in woman suffrage, the same demand for turther explanation is being made, and it is felt by many suffragists that the na- tional organization might profitably retain her to continue this work among the unions of the -eastern citles. The governor of Washington has vetoed the bill ropriating 36,000 for traveling libraries and the women's clubs of ~that state will have to continue their work to supply this need. Two years ago the fed- eration turned over twelve of these colleo- tions to the state, when an appropriation of §2.00 was made for thelr maintenance, and general disapolntment is expressed that the hard work of the women for the proper support of such a work is denied by the source that should righttully supply it. The Deughters of the American Revolu- tion of Pennsylvania have sent Secretary Root $10,000, to be used for a bullding in Manila for the use of the enlisted men in the army there. The building will include reading, writing and billard rooms and their equipment for the amusement of the men, The gift has been aceepted by special act of congress. The Ladies' Auxillary to Omaha Typo- graphical union 190 will give a “Union Label” card party Tuesday evening, June 80, at Royal Arcanum hall. They announce that there will be prises for all and that every prize will bear the union label. Thiy will close the social affairs of the auxiliary for the summer. The influence of this organisation of women is beginning to have its effect in the demand for union-made ®00ds and their closing soclal is admirably consistent with an effort that has won for them the interest of all who know of their work. Taough of a soclal c ter, doubtless the last large club gathering until fall, was the annual picnic of the household Jeon- omics department of the Woman's club, held Thursday at Bellevue at the home of Mrs. Mary Moody Pugh. The day was most enjoyably spent in the woods, each member having provided a part of the picnic luncheon. The party included about sixty women. Miss Tobitt and Miss Baumer of the staff of the Omaha Public library left last evening for Niagara Falle, where they will attend the sessions of the American Li- brary assoclation. They will visit New York and several other eastern cities be- fore they return, being away altogethsr three or four weeks. Miss O'Brien, us us- sistant librarian, will have charge of the work at the library during the absence of the librarian. —_— Messenger Boy Injured.
