Ferguson , vice president of the Omaha Woman's chib gave greeting and a cordial welcome to tha visiting club women , In welcoming them Mrs. Ferguson eald thai any gathering ot clubmen or women was al ways attended by some good , So these ses sions ot today could not but bo ot value. Mrs. Brtndley , president of the Columbui Woman's club , In response thanked thi Omaha women for thelr , kindness and liospl tallty. Twenty-eight years ago Mrs Brlndley crossed from Council Bluffa ti Omaha In a ferryboat. In striking term ; the depicted the growth ot 'the city. Ii glowing terms the exposition was praised for Mra. Brlndley said that It was not enl ; ft source of pride and oailsfactlon to thi people of Omaha , but to the people of Ne braska , and thus to all the people ot th transmlsslsslppl section. The fact that men gave so little ot thel tlmo to Intellectual culture while womei gave eo. much Mrs. Brlndley lamented am urged that the women endeavor to make I possible tor men to secure more lelsur from their business. With a repetition o thanks and appreciation for the courtesle extended to the visiting club women Mrc Brlndley closed her address. Commence HiiMnciin Senolon. Business routine was then taken tip. Mrs Draper Smith , the secretary , then read tlv minutes of the fourth annual Besslon of th Nebraska Federation ot Women's Clubs , bcl < at Beatrice last year , which were approve ! and accepted by the delegate * . Koilowlni this came Uhe report ot the committed 01 credentials end 'he roll call ot delegites , Th roll call disclosed that delegates were pros en from thirty-nine clubs. The report of the secretary allowed tha there were seventy-five clubs in rho tit.it Federation. The reports of the treasurer Mrs. Nichols , and the auditor , Mrs. Larsh were then read and accepted. The routine work was Interrupted for a le\ moments to listen to two delightful song by Mrs. J. H. Mctcnlf. After this refresh Ing respite , two minute reports ot the con dltlon and work ot the different clubs wcr given , ' all ot which offered great satlfac tlon to the assembled club womer. Afternoon Andleiicc ! Lnrnc. By far the largest audlcnco of the con gress gathered this afternoon at the sccon session of the Nebraska Federation c Women's Clubs meeting. And the mcrl of the papers and tbo music certainly re vn' it'of'll'M j * n- ' ' wardba itamply. . IMrs. Richardson ot Lincoln , Neb. , rea a paoor on "Town and Vll'agj Improve tncnt. " SLe told of the work and dUMcul ties .that beset the first attempt to get tb town or city fathers to allow women t have a part In tbo improvements for tb health and welfare ot the citizens. It I necessary to keep at them and it Is out a matter of time , for they soon recogniz that women with their wonderful Intultlo are a great assistance. If you are in tl country , turn your efforts to the makin ot sidewalks ; It you are in the city , to th drainage facilities , to the proper proteotlo from the epcad of contagious diseases. Bi wherever you faro or whatever your worl do not bo discouraged. Mrs. Bnyder ot Plattsmouth spoke o "Art. " She urged that wherever I was practicable the women's clut should devote some time to tin Stud of art. But for this purpose enl ( rood teachers or well educated pcopl should bo selected. With a little judlcloti effort many a wall that Is now bare mlgt bo brightened and the tone of the famil raised If over so slightly. For no ono wli la surrounded by refined paintings or pic lures can fall to bo elevated by their Infii once. History and nature well combine cultivate an artistic nature. In the dccon tlon of the homes plenty of color should t used , but bo sure that it la good color , I lieu ot landscapes or portraits photograpr of the old masters may be used with goo effect. Great care ought to bo taken thi the pictures which adorn the walls ot schoo rooms are appropriate. If the children wr attend the school are accustomed to see wild flowers every day , the pictures or phoU graphs should bo ot fine pieces of archltei ture and celebrated statues. And where Is possible , ' casts ot these statues should t placed. If on the other hand the chlldre who attend the schools are city 'chlldrei the walls should be adorned with landscapi nnd pictures of flowers. But ot wblchevi kind they are be sure that they are all goo Thus an educated movement for a free a on a democratic principle may bo Inaugi rated. v ttcneOt of llcHt Ilooinn. Mrs. Stoutenborough then introduced Mr Harrison of York , Neb. , who gave an lnt cstlng account of "Rest Rooms" in conno < tlon wllih town and country clubs. She to of the great advantage It was to the wonl < ot country clubs to meet the members of ci1 clubs occasionally. How they looked to ward to these meetings and how they to their fellow women about them. In th way the women of far away towns a : brought In contact with the more advanci Ideas ot tbo day and the best methods conducting their clubs. In managing the meetings boundless patience , tact , with capital T , nnd an overwhelming desire better 'the condition of one's fellow worai must be the guides. A charming duet by Mrs. Campbell at Mies Oakley broke the etrnln of this lnt ( lectual feast , after which Mrs , Wilson , tl dean of the Woman's university at Lincol read a delightful paper on "University E : tension.1 She gave a brief sketch of tl growth of women's colleges and urged th their work be further extended by the un vorslty extension scheme. At the presei ttfme It Is dangerous to stop short of teacl Ing the best theories. All developme : should be along the lines of luvestlgatlc and science. The trend ot women's clul ( today Is toward altruism. All altruistic ei deavora must be grounded In educating tl Individual development. Nebraska has taki a high place In the education of Ua womr Mrs. Wilson urged that it maintain tb stand by adopting the extension idea , Mrs. Apperson of Tecumseh , Neb. , ga a most Instructive talk on "District Fc- cratlon , " and then the federation took i unfinished work and the reports ot tl committees.

"It Is not enpefcled that your people would bo a well posted on the mineral resources t the state ot Washington aa of Colorado , jouth Dakota , Wyoming or Utah , because , n the flrct place , the development of the mineral deposits of that reuloa has been otarded and for the further reason that tie country Is more distant than thosj s ales uhlch I have mentioned bv comparliou , The retarding of the development Is due more to the tact that we are beyond alt he other state * except California and Ore- on than to anything els ? , but ul o becauia ur ores are essentially smelting ores and qUlro not only the smelters but railroads a Well leading to them , " Bald L. K. Arra- trong , commissioner from the "Evergreen fate" to the exposition , when our reporter ailed on him. " 1 first want to tell you who some of our ommlssloners are nnd to who'n the Male s Indebted for this mineral exhibit nnd will hen be glad to show jou over ilm exhibit ml xplaln the ores and their rarttta and tell you omethlng ot the resources and development t our state. "Hon. D. B. Ward of Seattle was formerly vice chairman of the commission , but upon ho death of our chairman , Hon. George V. Thompson of Tacoma , Mr. Ward became ho chairman ; Mr. L. M. Wood of Seattle s the secretary of the commission and to htm has ot course fallen a great deal ot un- caul ted and hard work. Our commission vos then divided Into several departments and Captain C. H. Thompson ot Bpokane , a mining engineer of rare good judgment and unuBual executive ability , was selected us commissioner In charge of the mlnetal department ; I was lelseied to take barge ot the eastern division , with head quarters In Spokane , and Mr. N. Rudebcck ot Everett was selected to represent the west Ido of the state In the mineral department. These gentlemen have worked together with unanimity of opinion and In the toco ot many obstacles have been able to bring not only this mineral exhibit out but to expose o public distribution large quantities ot lit erature on the resources of the state. "Miss Fay Fuller ot Tacoma , representing the 'State , a gentlefolk * ' magazine , ' Is lo cated In the Liberal Arts building and had icon very successful In her work for the magazine and In addition has distributed bousands Upon thousands of pieces ot liter ature on the resource ! ) of Washington. MUs Furicr is ono ot the foremost members of our Washington state set at the exposi tion and has. I think , done more than any one of the others ot us In advertising our wonderful resources. Mr. Ward alee did Rood work during his short sojourn at the exposition , but was called home on private business. "Afl you are aware , Mr. D. M. Stewart Is n charge of the Northern Pacific car and rou have only to go In there to see what 10 Is doing for our state and Its neighbors. And while it was impossible to bring more ban the mjneral exhibit this time , we feel hat It ono wishes to see the fruit and grain of our atato they will not bo disappointed when they have seen this car. "But I was going to tell you something of our mineral exhibit and resources and will have to leave the other industries of our state to another time. You will see hat we have arranged Uie ores Into the classes , and have clas lflpd on values ; as , 'or ' Instance , you VulF see copper ores In the gold ore exhibit ) ; this IB because the gold values In these ores exceed the copper value. Our ores consist principally of the ores of gold , sllvdr , copper and of lead. In addition to these , we have here slate , marble , ornamental stone , granite , siliceous sand , Iron ore. and bituminous coat ; so you will cee that we have a variety ot minerals n our state , both useful and ornamental. "The development of our 'resources becan In earnest when the hard times of 1893 threw ua on our own resources. The cur rent of money from the east ceased to flow Into the unproductive real estate which the wily boomer had assured the credulous easterner would produce an hundred fold. The people were compelled to look > to other channels and to turn their attention to other sources of revenue. Mining was then In Its Infancy and for that matter Is yet , but the field was large und the prospects were alluring and the mountains of the state wore quickly filled with prospector ! while those left at home provided the funds necessary to carry on Uio work. At once began an era of now prosperity and moun tains were made to give up some of theli golden treasures , which had been hidden so long , Development made productive mines In all parts of the state and the pro ductive mines made many men rich , so that now there are more men ot means In the state than ever before. The developmeni ot tbo mines created a home market foi the products ol the forest , field , Orchard , factory and store , and the carriage of thcst goods Into the camp and the ores out made new and ever-Increasing business for th < railroads. New homes were built , mort gages were paid off , bank accounts created and all really steadily Increased in value. But the avocation of the boomer Is gone and property Is sought after by the pur * chaser who ilwlres to make It productive , makes his purchase dlr6ct from the owner and usually makes It productive Imme diately. "Tho centers of population became the wtnfr homes only ot about halt ot those who formerly piled their trade in some other vocation and the mountains became the summer haunts ot thcte and many more attracted to the country by the reports of rich strikes and remarkable values due to development. In fact , mining became ithe most popular Industry to our progressive citizens and the exhibit which wo have here Is but a partial and meager showing ot the results ot this enterprise , "The mountain chains extend across the north part of > the state and through Its center north and south , nnd In all these ranges are to be found productive mines. "At the beginning the projects under taken Were smalt and carried on with the greatest caution , but as boric progressed and the mines became richer nnd of cvir Increasing numbers , outside money began flowing In , though the nilnlng Is still tlono on the same conservative line , * and the re sulting cash from sates ur dividends It put again Into the mines , fine homes , farm lands or Into other local Industrie , the people have lost that tired feeling and are now enjoying an era of prosperity which with the combined resources ot the state Is nuro to follow as a result. "Tho counties which ere best mineral ized are Stevens , Okanogan , Kltrltass , Wbat- com , Skaglt , Snohomlsh , King , 'Pierce , Lewis. Cowlltz and Skamanla ; others have mineral resources but the development In these counties Is further advanced and the showing proportionately better. Th first enterprise to begin the development ot the mineral resources on a large scale was that of the Monte Crtsto region , where the Rockefeller eyndlcato purchased a largo area nt mineral land on which they put some expensive machinery and which tl'ty con nected by railroad with the Puget Sound country. At Everett they bUHt a very large Rmelter and In the mines they began de velopment on a stupendous scale. They soon began shipping ore and rontluut : ! to do eo until recently when the Hoods In the mountains swept away a portion ot the rail road and work has been temporarily dis continued. It Is the early Intention to re build the track at greater elevations nnd continue shipments. The Old Dominion in Stevens county is another property vihlch hfls received a largo amount of develop ment and which has flomo very high grade ore. A largo force has recently bern put to work there and no doubt shipments will aulckly follow. Another enterprise which is attracting no little attention Is the work now being done by the Palmer Mountain Tunnel company In Okanogan county , where they have started a 6,000-foot tunnel which Is now in the bin over 1,200 feet and has encountered several largo veins of high grade gold ore. This tunnel will Intersect sixteen veins ot gold ore now exposed on the surface , and others , as has been demon strated , which do not outcrop. The company has ample means to continue work and are even now In a position to furnish ore con tinuously to a mill , though they will not erect one until they have done much more work. "On the Colvlllo Indian reservation , re cently thrown open to the miners , the Re public mine and many other valuable prop erties are being developed , The < Repufcllc company has erected a plant for the treat- moot of Its ores , which you will see In one of the cases and which you will observe is aninusual occurrence. The plant con sists of a rock breaker , CornlRh rolls and vats , In which Is a weak solution of cyanide of potassium , which Is charged with elec tricity.
