CHICAGO, June 13.—The principle of woman suffrage was indorsed to- day by the General Federation of Women's Clubs. By thie action a twenty years’ fight by the suffragists to break down the Federation's constitutional bar on po- litical and religious subjects was auc- cessful. The actual operation re- quired less than fivg minutes. The motion was made by Mrs. E. G. Denniston of San Franctiaco, Chair- man of the Resolutions Committee. There were seconds from all over the house, but Mrs. James Lee of Ken- tuoky insisted on being heard, and read a paragraph of the hymnitk womal creed, Othera would have spoken, but Miss Lutie E. Stearns of Milwaukee objected. “I don't see why there should be any discussion,” she said. “Eight million women are waiting for us. As Mrs. Carrie Chapman ‘taid in her address last night, the women of the world are waiting for our action was a chorus of “ayes,” but scattered negatives were plainly beard. While Mrs. Percy V. Pennypacker was de- claring the motion carried ‘and pounding with her gayel for order the pro-suffragists arose and clapped their hands. There were tears in many eyes, Then in a distant gallery to which the Illinois delegation as hostess had consigned itself the wom- en raised thelr voices above the tu- mult in the Battle Hymn of the Re- public. The refrain “Glory, Glory, Halle- lujah” was taken up in various sec- tions of the auditorium. Here ia the resolution adopted: “Whereas, the question of po- litteal equality of men and wom- en 1s to-day a vital problem un- der discussion throughout the civ- ilized world: “Resolved, That the General Federation of Women's Clubs give the causo of political equality its moral support by recording its that was earnest belief in the principle of equality regardiess of political would have it, I did not get a strike, so 1, as hundreds of other would- be fishermen would do, purchased ‘ge humpback sea bass from known among the anglers who always has ‘luck.’ On my arrival at the Battery landing 1 preaented my friends with the fish. I must confess that a day or so ago I met one of my friends and he told me that as his wife was pre- paring the fish for supper her hand ran into a sharp point, and in the upper jaw there were two hooks so imbedded that ¢ were unseen. Now, the question is, can It be possi- ble that this fish, with two hooks all rusted, could exist and swim until caught again? My friend showed me the two hooks, and them as a memento. ! sa in other nd 1905 were regarded As great sea bass years. THIS SCHOOL OF !

This is a story of a bass that played ‘possum. On the Titania one Sunday at the England Banks, a large humpba bass was hooked and lifted out of th water, but the hook tore out and thi bass fell back into the water, striking so hard it must have be for It floated on the surface no attempt to get away. The fish was immedi et by one of the crew and turned over to the angler who lost it. He placed it in a balt tub with other fish, A few minutes afterward the fish must have recuperated, for It flopped out of the tub on the deck and over- board, striking the water hard enough to stun it again. The deckhand immediately caught the bass in the net the second time and once more turned it over to the passenger. When the day was over this particylar sen bass happened to be the heaviest fish caught, and the rize money was turned over to t Reherman who had lost and reco’ ered it. Joe Snyder of No. street tells this ta! taken on bread bait: “One day while on the steamship Cape Cod I met a fresh-water fisher- man who had never tried angling in the ocean. He brought resh-water outfit and bread that had been put away for several days, which he cut into cubes an inch 60 square, This was the bait he used for carp, he said, On the day I saw him he had twenty-six sea bass on the bread bait, and his nearest competitor only one-half the catch.” | ; ' Carlisle. ely caught in 30 Carmine of sea bass dren‘s Fund had their annual June walk 1.

The STORY of JUNE 23rd CHAPTER V WHAT MAKES THE VALUE OF REAL ESTATE XX ou probably know, Manhattan Island was bought froth the Indians for $24 worth of “Junk.” That “Deal” in Real Estate set an example to Investors in New York Real Estate ‘unto the Third and Fourth Generation.” For instance, the corner of Broadway ‘and 59th Street sold at Auction for $875. J+ is worth today $300,000 to $400,000. Why is it worth that money? Because it’s a corner on Broadway opposite to the Entrance to Central Park. ON JUNE 23rd thete are going to be sold at Auction several lots that in time will be even more valuable than the 59th Street corner—and that’s no ae because they're not alone at the ONLY BROADWAY ENTRANCE to the Great City of New York—Broadway, the Main Artery of that City—the Greatest Street In The World—but also at what will be the entrance to Van Cortlandt Park. If the City Planning is carried out consistently, here will be a Grand Plaza worthy of the Entrance to the Great Metropolis—combined with the Entrance to the Second Largest Park in that Metropolis. Into that Plaza will run—probably—a Van Cortlandt Park North, similar to a Central Park South—262d Street—the most northerly street in the Spe which connects Riverdale Avenue with Broadway —also Caryl Avenue, on which, 430 yards distant, is the Caryl Station—and other streets and avenues. Why—if this spot was in any Evtropean City there would be four Arcs de Triumph—18 Statues of Heroes—two Tombs of Napoleon and a charge of two cents for every bunch of radishes brought into the City. This Plaza, besides being the Gateway to the City and the Park, will form the center of the activities of that part of the City and Yonkers, and should be a Columbus Circle, a Sth Avenue and 59th Street, a: Times Square, a Herald Square— all combined. What will these lots then be worth? Could you duplicate them in any other City in the World? Surrounding lots should share in these values. That’s why you should go and look at this as —that_is what makes it interesting —THERE’S BIG MONEY TO BE MADE THERE if you only have foresight and imagina- tion enough to see its freaendeus future possibilities.
