MEETING OF WOMAN'S CLUB
After a Vacation of Four Moiitlm tin *
itlllll IlCHIIIIICH ItM
iilur AVorU.
The Woman's club convened Monday after
a vacation of four months. MlmiUs and re 1
ports dlnposo.1 of , Chairman Powell of the
membership committee read the namea ot
eleven applicants for membership and an
amendment to the constitution looking to
ward an entire change In the method ot
club elections was placed In the hands ot
the constitution committee. l
Two guests , Mrs. Smith , president of the
Dubuque Woman's club , and Mrs. Albert of
the Press club , Plttsburg , Pa. , were pre
sented to the club , after which the president
read her annual address.
Mrs. Smith eald that nothing new had de
veloped In the club situation since her ad-
dm of a year ago , exrept that the club
had put Into actual practice the things most
to be desired and had grown proportionately
In grace and wUdora. For the coming year
Iho speaker suggested the motto , "Privi
leges Imply Obllcatlfus , " and after dwelling
for a moment upon the educational awaken- ,
nq of our time , ns expressed In kinder-
gHrlrn , le.-hnlral training anj the higher
education of women , and Its effect upon all
vomen , both In colleRP and out. she con-
Inup'l cubslantlnlly as follows :
"Reciprocity Is the keynote of club lltfl.
Time was when It wan considered an ad
mirable thins to fill one's mind with stores
of wisdom to bo kept for one' own use.
Tlmo Is when ono Is scorned If he doee not
et his light shine. Time was when It was
considered desirable to cultivate all manner
of gifts nnd graces for the > private adorn
ment of the mind. Tlmo Is If one hoardn
ho blessings of culture without Imparting
them to those less fortunate he Is considered
selfish. Opportunities are commands. SerT-
co to others Is the solution of the problem
of life , but whllo wo live for others wo
ilso llvo with others. In the club wo pool
individual Ideas and out of the common
fund comes , llko a composite picture , the
well-bounded whole. "
The address clcecd with the plea that
women'fl clubs bo taken from the list of
fads nnd placed on the list of permanent
organizations. She would have them ac.
ceptcd as having como to stay and mad
the most of that kindliness ' , helpfulness ann
service may enter Into' them and they be
made n power for good In the community.
The program for the day had been pre
faced by a committee consisting of Mm.
Nccley , Mrs. Kejsor and Mrs. Heldeu. The
program opened by a symposium consisting
of thrco-mlnuto talks on the peace con
ference at The Hague. Mrs. A. S. Jcfferls ,
the first speaker , considered the call to the
conference Issued by Czar Nicholas nnd the
subjects announced last January for discus
sion there.
The second paper , upon the "The House In
the Woods , " was read by Mrs. A. O. Charlton
and "it not only described the home of the
conference , giving details to the very fur-
nlEhlngs nnd paintings , but gave as well
some Interesting history in connection.
Mrs. Towlo's paper was concerned with
the detail of the conference , the methods and
order of business.
Miss Margaret McCarthy Kpoko of the per
sonnel of the American delegates and the
Ideals they represented.
Mrs. Fleming's paper described the race
characteristics represented nt The Hague.
Mrs. Carl Ilcnnlg treated of the Incidents
connected with the conference.
Mrs. Sawyer of Lincoln summarized the
results of the .
congress. The Immediate re
sults of the conference , politically speaking ,
wore probably three the embodiment of the
arbitration Idea , the establishment of a
high court of Justice and the protection of
private property. The ethical results are too
near at hand to bo estimated , but they lie In
the direction of cultivation of the popular
intelligence nnd of the popular conscience ,
At the conclusion of the speaking the
platform was Immediately occupied by a
double quartet consisting of Mrs , Sunder-
land and Mrs. Urquhardt , sopranos ; Mrs.
Ely and Mrs. Neeley , altos ; Messrs , Hazclton
and Willis , tenors , and Messrs. Burklcy and
Stryker , basses , and Kipling's "Recessional"
was sung , accompanied by Miss Boulter at
the piano and Mrs. Ford at too organ. The
audience insisted upon an encore and the
four men responded with "Tenting Tonight
On the Old Camp Ground. " A recitation by
Mrs. Dickey of Mrs. Browning's "Mother
and Child" completed the program.

HEARD ABOUT TOWN.
"It would not eurprlse mo much If the
Philippine Islands prove to be one of the
richest gold fields in the world , " remarked
N. W. Peters , who was with General Stanton -
ton and who has Just returned from Manila
"In my Judgment the islands will prove a
very rich country when once Americanized
At present the natives raise only rice , pine
apples , bananas and a few other fruits. The
soil Is very fertile and when properly cul
tivated will produce all kinds of tropical
fruits. Of course now I am speaking of
the lowlands along the coast. On the table
lands , where it Is cooler , I am of the opin
ion that grains nnd all products of the tem
perate zone may bo raised.
"Everything indicates that the mountains
are rich In gold , and It will not surprise mete
to hear of some very rich strikes. Prior to
the beginning of the present war the boys
used to go up Into the mountains , and along
any of the streams they could wash out gold
In paying quantities. If gold is otruck you
will see a rush of miners Into the country
and then the troubles with the natives will-
adjust themselves , for with forty or fifty
thousand miners they will see that the na-
Uves are taken care of. "

NEW YORK. Oct. 2. The Times' London
financial cable pays : Last week was one of
; rcat tension and excitement destructive to
"business. " Even the money market was In A
condition of suspended animation and the
Bank of England all week did the cream of
the discount burners. Until Friday the
open market worked nt 3 % per cent , taking
ninety day bills at that rate , but quoting
34 and 4 per cent to foreign correspondents
'or bills coming forward. An advance In the
bank rate to 4 per cent was fully expected
on Thursday. When no change was made
the position did not Improve , but grow
worse , for the bank statement was weak.
The market had drawn 1.600.000 ( rom the
bank by bills of discount aim the whole of
this , fc-avo 03,000 , had disappeared either
Into active circulation or , worse still , hi gold
exported.
And iillll gold flows away. More than
2,000,000 has already gone to the Cape ,
and the real surplus In metal over liability
notes In circulation Is now under (5,000,000. (
The bank Itself refused to work below 3741
to 4 per cent on Friday and Saturday did
nothing under 4 per cent , charging i" > per
cent for loans. The open market , accord
ingly , quoted 4 to 4'4 per cent for ninety
day remitted bills and did little 'business. '
The hope Is expressed that gold may come
back from the province * this week , hut the
probability of that Is small. The tension ,
however , Is sure to be- less In the loan mar
ket , because the banks are now calling In
loans to make a show of strength In their
monthly balance sheets.
Here Is a crude statement ot our position.
Under our antiquated banking system pro
vincial English , Scotch and Irish banks all
Issue notes on their credit alone. They are
not bound even to hold government stock
against a fixed legal Issue. The aggregate
of the o uncovered Issues is rtbont 10,000-
000 , and the banks oujoylng them nro obliged
only to keep gold against notes Icsticd In ex
cess of their statutory limit. The English
'banks ' never reach that limit , the Scotch
and Irish are always above It. The Bank
of England stock of gold , therefore , Is
really about 2,000,000 short now cf
the amount required to cover the
fiduciary note circulation of the
three kingdoms. There Is no real
danger in the position as long as the public
Is not frightened by rapid exports of gold ,
but , given active fears , notes could not be
met and suspension of specie payment looms
in view ,
Cniinot Spare Gold.
It Is necessary to Insist on this point In
order to warn your bankers that we cannot
now spare gold from the Bank of England.
Should a South African war come , as la al
most certain , nil we could spare or scrape
would bo required for it , and should other
foreign demands bo sprung upon us , a credl'
smash is almost a matter of days.
Dread of this smash alone cannot prevent
war. All our resources are fully engaged In
Industry and commerce , in sustaining credit
In India and the colonies , In financing Japan
and Egypt and In Innumerable other direc
tions. Abstract capital for war purposes
and the entire machine Is liable to become
deranged , with disastrous results. Al
ready the Transvaal government has Inti
mated that it will keep the gold produces
from the mines until the war Is over , ah
except the amounts minted for expenses
an ominous notice. Our thoughtful hankers ,
not In the majority , I regret to say , have
been alarmed at the prospect for eomo time ,
and ono or two have begun to collect pri
vate stocks of sovereigns. These arc too
slender as yet to do much to stave off con
fusion should export proceed and now
supplies of metal cease. Your bankers ,
therefore , would do well to restrict their de
mands to consignments procurable from
bullion dealers.
The Stock exchange remains deserted by
all except those who must buy or cell ,
such as insurance companies , trustees , etc. ,
but the position seems strong and largo
failures nro said to be Improbable. Specu
lative accounts , however , are not now all
carried In the market as formerly , but
largely by the banks , so the real position In
hard to guess. The only point certain is
that business Is stopped. Even Paris is becoming - ;
coming afraid. j
General trade has not yet begun to suffei j
appreciably from the uneasiness. Stlmuj j
lated by enormous government orders , the I
Iron and steel trades are busier than ever , I
and orders for ships for the mercantile ma- i , '
rlne are also excellent. In other dlrec- j
tlons wo have lieen less favored. The trade
returns for September , to bo published next .
Saturday , will probably exhibit a serious | i
further ( shrinkage In South African business j
with most of the continent
ness , and trade parts I
nent ns well aswith Australia , remains pro
gressive.
French finances are again exciting com
ment. The budget for 1900 exceeds 140-
000,000. The expenditure the year before
the war with Germany was only 75,000-
000 , and the population Is only a little larger
now than then. In France , as In Spain , the
military caste dominates and Imposes Its
demands on the nation , come to all other
Interests what may.

What are we to make of the fact that ,
although Ilonore le Balzac died In

twentieth century , 110 fewer than three
translations of his novels , each putting
forward pretensions to completeness
more or loss justlllcd , are offered to the
English-speaking world.
One of these , Issued by of
Boston , lias been in course of publca-
tlon for some years ; * * * it lias
this demerit , that MANY OF TUB
VOLUMES AUK AIIIIIDGBD , and AL
MOST ALL OF THEM ARE EXPUH-
GATED.
A second translation Is being brought
forth In London under the editorship ot
George Salntsbury ; the prospectus
