ATNE, Neb., Oct. 9. (Special Tele
tram.) Wednesday morning's session of
th annual convention of the- Nebraska Fed
eration of Woman's Clubs was occupied
with reports of the work of forty-one of the
107 clubs composing the organization, each
one showing enthusiasm and progress. The
result of the efficient work of the extension
committees was shown by reports, from a
number of new clubs that have been
brought in through Its efforts.
Promptly at 2 o'clock Mrs. Draper Smith
called the convention to order and the first
business was brought before It, Mrs. tl. H.
Heller of Omaha having asked tho co-operation
of the women In bringing a young
colored woman from the south, training her
for two years In the Washington kindergar
ten schools, and returning her to tho south
to leach among her own people. It was
decided that each club of the state be re
quested to give an entertainment for the
benefit of tho project and that each club
report to Mrs. H. II. Heller within the next
alx weeks the nature of the effort In behalf
of the plan.
The amendment to the constitution pro
posed last year, providing that presidents
of local clubs be members "of the nominat
ing committee, was next acted upon and
carried unanimously.
Tho next amendment, raiting the dues
to the state federation from $2 for eaeh
club of fifty or less with an additional dol
lar lor eacn additional nrty members or
major fraction thereof, to $3 with the same
rate for additional members, was carried
with but few dissenting votes, but had
hardly been so declared when It was asked
when the II Increase would go Info effect.
Don't Want to Pity Too Sana,
When the president announced that the
increase would have to be met at once a
good part of the women protested, as most
of tho clubs had paid their S2 yearly dues In
advance as required, ond they held that
they could not be compelled to pay the ad
amonai dollar after receiving tnelr re
ceipts for the other amount.
Tho matter was referred to the parlla
mentarlan, and when convinced that the
convention's action took effect at once a
motion to reconsider the action was made
and tho vote was rescinded.
A lively discussion followed, In which
many seemed to have changed their minds
entirely, and numerous questions were
asked regarding a 10 cents per capita tax
in addition to the present dues.
This plan met tho favor of some and the
treasurer was finally asked If the coming
year's work could bo carried on under the
present agreement. She referred the
question to the president, who replied that
it could be done after a fashion with the
proscnt Income, and she asked which tho
Nebraska women could better afford to do,
pay the $1 Increase and so provide sufficient
support of their work, or keep tho income
as It is and necessitate Its being done In a
tooth-class manner.
Art Session IJrcnlly ttellshrd.
At this Juncture the session was ad
journed, as the time had arrived for the
art session; Mrs. P. M. Hall of Lincoln
presided at thnt session nnd one of the
most interesting art programs yet pro
sentod by tho committee followed. Mrs. II.
M. Bushnell of Lincoln spoke on the bene
fits derived from the study of art and how
to build up art Interest. Mrs. W. W. Key
tor of Omaha spoke of art study In
women's clubs.
Tho next hour was devoted to the ceramic,
workers, Mrs. Lnngworthy of Seward, Mrs.
A. II. Moray of Hastings, Mrs. Belle Per
feet of Omaha and Miss Mlna Fuller of
Ashland being among the speakers. At tho
conclusion of tho meeting It was decided
that the body continue In session and finish
the business before the houso at the ad
Journmont of the earlier meeting.
A general discussion followed, but as no
progress was made the convention was re
solved Into a committed of tho whole, Mrs
Winnie Durlnnd presiding, and tho mnttcr
talked over again. Nothing was accom
pushed, however, and tne president re
sumed the chulr and after more discussion
It was decided to add tho proposed dollar
the law to go Into effect after September
15, 1902.
This adjustment will mean no dlsap
polntment to, the clubs coming in this year
expecting to pay but 2. It made no pro
vision, however, for the coming year's ex
pense and to meet this It was voted that
tho financial condition of tho federation
bo exnlalned to all clubs and a voluntary
contribution be asked for from nil to meet
exnonscs until tho new law could go into
effect.
It was further decided that the nominal
ing committee make Its report Thursday
morning and that the election of officers
take place Thursday afternoon, after which
the convention wU adjourn.
Itrccptlnu to All Di-legnlca.
An elaborate reception "was held this
evening at tho home of Mr. and Mrs. J
T. Dressier, at which the eutlre delegation
was in attendance. Iu the receiving line
were the host and hostess, Miss Margaret
Evans of Minnesota, Mrs. K. W. Prattle
of Chicago, tho federation officers and the
ofllcers of the Wayne clubs. The ques
tion of finance seems to hove taken prece.
dence over all other Interest nnd it Is
probable that all the old officers will be
re-elected, except the corresponding sec
retary. Mrs. II. I). Ncely of Omaha de
clines to run again and in case she cannot
bo persuaded to accept the ofllce Mrs. C. S.
Lobcugler of Omnha wilt doubtless prove
the unanimous choice of the convention.

LINCOLN, Oct. 9. (Special.) Three
Saunders county farmers, John Joseph,
John Safronck and Nets Gibson, have ap
plied to Governor Savage for the standing
reward offered for the discovery of coal
111 paying quantities within the state. They l
present a lengthy affidavit In which they
assert that on October 3 they found n vein
of coal over four feet in thickness at a
depth of 23.") feet and that on the follow
ing day they found the second vein, meas
uring six feet In thickness and nt a depth
of 2l. feet, Both veins aro located In
tho northwest quarter of the northeast
quarter of section 9, In township 13. north
range 7, In Saunders county. The farmers
Inflict that they are the first to discover coal
In Nebraska and therefore pro entitled to
the full rewnrd offered by the stntc. They
Insist that the coal is of good quality and
the veins of sufficient thickness and near
enough tho surfnee to be profitably worked.
The law providing for the award says
that when It shall be made apparent to
tho governor that n vein of coal not less
than twenty-six Inches In depth and of
sufficient capacity to pay to mine and
within paying distance of the surface has
been discovered It shall bo the duty of
the governor to appoint a sultablo person
to examine tho same, whose duty It shall
be to report Iho probable extent nnd ca
pacity of the vein. If the report Is satis
factory to tho governor he shall direct tho
auditor to draw nn order on the treasurer
for 14,000. to bo paid to the owner of the
mine of coal, A reward of $2,000 Is of-
fered for tho discovery of Iron ore.
Several claims have been made under
this net, but none of tho veins reported
were found to meet the requirements and
consequently no reward has ever been
paid.
The reported discovery In Saunders
county will bo Investigated by an expert
and If tho claims of the farmers aro found
to bo true tho reward will bo paid Imme
diately. Pthliiti Sleet Next In Ctmnhn.

T. J. Mnlioney on Divorce.
In responso to tho request of Deputy
Labor Commissioner Watson for an opin
ion regarding tho dlvorco law of tho state
T. J. Mahoney of Omaha has submitted
tho following!
Replying to your rect-nt Inquiry In re
spect to the operation of our divorce laws
I would say thnt In my opinion the evils In
that connection grow not nn much out of
tlu grounds for divorce as established by
oir stntutes, iih the laws relative to pro
cedure In divorce ruses. One or the greatest
evils Ih tho conflict of laws In different
states. ' At the recent meeting of tho
American Hnr association suggestions wore
made looking to the adoption by the sev
eral stnte legislatures of n system of laws
that would make both the grounds and tho
procedure In divorce cases practically uni
form through the entire country unci thus
prevent the scandal Incident to parties
going from one stuto to another nnd nc-
lUliinc n temporary residence merely for
the purpose of divorce. 1 think our laws
ought t(. be amended In tho following par
ticulars. First- Where a divorce Is sought In n
stat'j other .than thnt In which It Is claimed
tho cause for divorce arose it should never
be grunted unless It were mndo to appear
that the ground would have been suffi
cient In tho stnto where the wrongful con-,
duct hi nlleged to have tnken plnce.
Second No divorce should be granted
upon pervlce by publication until there has
been n henrlng upon nn application to ob
tain service In thnt matter and u showing
made on such a hearing that it Is impos
Wine of Cardui is the best guardian of a woman's health during every period from youth to old age. At no time in her life can
she afford to be without this simple vegetable medicine, which is now used throughout the civilized world. The young girl who takes
Wine of Cardui when she is J3 years old, avoids the shocks and distresses of coming womanhood. With the aid of this reat emmenagogue,'
she developes into a healthy, beautiful woman and avoids the pain so common to her sex. It helps her safely into womanhood.
As a young wifeNand mother it sustains her during the trials of the new relation into which she has entered. It has brought the laughter
of happy children to thousands of barren homes. The mother who uses this pure Wine keeps her health and makes herself a blessing
to her family. Later it gently leads her through the dangerous period known as the change of life. This pure harmless Wine is the best
medicine a woman can take at any trying crisis. It is not a strong medicine, but may be taken every day in the year by any woman
with benefit. It does not force results, but it corrects all derangements of the menstrual organs. It strengthens the nervous system,
gives tone to the bodily functions, acts directly on the genital organs, and is the finest tonic for women known to the science of medi
cine. It is Nature's provision for regulating the menstrual function.
Chicaco, Iix., Mnroh 28, 1901.
I havo used fivo bottles of your Wine of Cardui and as many packages of Thcd
ford's Mack-Draught and can say I havo tountl great relief for my ailments, I have
greatly recommended it to all my friends. Your medicine is in "great demand at tho
neighborhood drug store. Mrs. WILLIAM VOLLMKK.
Over 1,000,000 women, besides Mrs. Vollmer and Mrs. James have taken Wine of Cardui, and seldom, If ever,
You can get the same relief as they secured, if you pursue the same course. Try the Wine of Cardui treatment.

pPMiiul service of notice of the ptndencv
of (he suit.
Thltd 1 believe that an mnendment to
Ouf divorce laws, to the effect thnt the
party ngalnst whom a divorce Is grnnted.
should not' be permitted to remarry woJld
viy greatly reduce the number of divorces.
It would also prevent collusive divorces,
ns the defendant would have a strong In
ducement to mako n defense nnd prevent
the granting of a divorce, as a mete mat
ter of course.
There Is much wldom In the old saw
that "too mnny cooks spoil the broth." If
theic can be some concerted effort bv
which the legislatures of the several states
will ndopt substantially uniform divorce
laws, even though such laws may not be
lu all respects satlsfaetu -y. It will be much
btter than continuing our present hetero
gcreojs system, tin It which divorce may
