PLANS FOR DAY |California Is Awarded Representation on the Board of Directors. BL LAURA BRIDE POWERS. The biennial has come and gone, but unlike the Arabs, it has not silently stolen away. None but the deaf would have call- d the last hours of the General Fed- ion of Women’s Clubs a silent af- Lnr—(he ailr was heavily charged with \uluhnmy and of a kind, by the way, to indicate kangaroo strides from the vs of our grandmothers—the bless- ed old ladies who were more skilled e € and réform® and discuss- Ah! But that's progression. Women grapple with live propositions now, where they formerly fainted at them and there is less sham and more intelligence now among women than the world ever knew before—the male misanthrope notwithstanding. As to the election of the officers, the slate was carried out, the nomination! from the floor falling into desuetude. Mrs. Sarah Platt Decker of Colorado is now at the head of the™sreatest ag- gregation of clever women in the country—an easy prophecy to the wise, they who knew how the club leaders of the West felt as to her eli- gibility—and it was commonly con- ceded to be a Western year. How- ever, had Mrs. Bob Burdette contin- ued her canvass for the office as clev- erly as she had begun it, and she had the California delegation practically with her, she would have given the handsome Coloradoan a close run. There were, however, some dissensions in the home contingent, and it is sup- posed that Mrs. Burdette was advised But the fact is of record that the delegates from the State Fed- eration went on instructed to stand solidly, first, last and all the time for Mrs. Burdette, who, at that time, was an avowed candidate. On her withdrawal on the plea of preferring to remain at home to assist her husband in his new pastoral du- ties, the united strength of the Califor- nia delegation was thrown to Mrs. Decker, who won with colors ‘flying. But California must be regarded by the governing body as not quite “be- longing,” as no place was awarded her leaders on the speech programme. Now, that would be a hard slam at our men politicians from California, but what think you of our women being thus ignored? And they talk so well, too! However, California was heard from, | the omission notwithstanding. A very clever talk was given, and under very tactful and charming circumstances, by the president of the California Federa- tion, Mrs. George Law Smith, on “Traw- so our lovely State in the scrimmage. v, we Californians captured one of the directorates—Mrs. Jesiah Cowles of Los Angeles, a re- markably fit selection. But what rebuke the federation de- livered to a former president—she who presided at Los Angeles with such charming tact as to win the admiration of even the stony-hearted men who chanced to blow in at the sessions. While there, the pretty widow—who, by the way, was dn exquisite in gown- ing—was fairly shadowed by an ador- ing chap from New York. No one blamed him, but rather commended, until it was bruited about that he was hardly free to wed—having already the legal allotment of one wife. "Twas not long after, however, that a divorce was asked for and obtained, and lo—the handsome widow and her lingering lover were soon made one—and a happy pair they are. But “consistency is a jewel” to club women, who usually are terribly right- eous, and how, pray, could the federa- tion go on record as a foe to divorce, indorsing uniform divorce laws, with an honorary president wedded through the sweet provisions of divorce? And 80 they consistently eliminated the clause in the constitution that provides for past presidents becoming honorary presidents. And thus did the federa- tion remove the “blot on the ’scutch- ion"—if one there was. e e out poli The California Club has plans in its possession for its proposed clubhouse on Clay street, between Polk street and Van Ness avenue.

Now, it is whispered abroad that some Mrs. Energetic confided to the bank the lit- tle bubbles of trouble in the club, thus causing its sudden change of view. But | finances are not controlled by gossip, and the ladies are firm in the belief that another bank will advance the money needed on the plain basis of a As soon as Mr. Pissis gets his plans nearer the idealty | of the knockers—alas! for the knocker dwelleth nigh—all will be well, and the cornerstone be lald some day. But herein lies a lesson for women, in | club and out. Women do not think— that is, not until the day .after. Now, these women went through the legisla- tive work months ago, and now they “didn’t know what they were voting | for.” It is a fact, lamentable though it | be, that two-thirds of the women who vote in their club affairs vote like sheep—just follow their friends, who in turn follow their friends. Then when a matter of vital Importance goes through and is half-way along toward consummation they awaken from their trance and ask “why” and “whence. However, we're learning.

Almost in- variably during the past eight months the department has been called to save property to which a match had been deliberately apolied. In some instances oil-soaked rags have been used. Robert Ross’ blacksmith shop seems to be the favorite spot of the incen- diary, and six alarms have come from the corner of First and Main streets, where his shop is situated. Two at- | tempts have been made on the property of A. E. Chartrand, at Fourth and A streets, one in the Star Feed Mills, where a blaze was kindled on a pile of ! hay, and another last night in the store | of M. Saunders. Three separate attempts were made o burn as many empty houses in the red light” district, and, taken alto- gether, the fire department has been | kept busy to thwart the attempted de- struction of property. The police de- partment is using every power to find the firebug, but has not been success- ful. | i | | | | | B.
