WOMAN IN CLUB AND CHARITY
The following report has been presented
by the biennial committee of the General
Federation of Women's Clubs:
The blenninl committee of the board Is
formed to consult with the local committee
of arrangements and Is composed of one
member of the board. Mrs. Philip Monre;
one local member, Mrs. Charles Dibble,
and one layman, Mrs l.ydla Avery C'oonley
Ward of Chicago. These members met in
St. Paul three dnys In May, with Mrs.
Decker, who Is officially connected with all
committees. It Is pleasant to state how
few are the problems of St. Paul. The
Invitation to hold the eighth biennial meet
ing In thnt city was given by the Com
mercial club, with the promise to stand
behind the club women financially; the
city council at once voted II.OjiO, with the
assurance of more; the Invitation from
the Fifth district, including the clubs of
St. Paul and three adjoining towns, was
warmly seconded by the state federation,
as al-o by the nmyor of the city and the
governor of the state. The biennial com
mittee met delegations of club women from
both Minneapolis and St. Paul. At a meet
ing of the Fifth district for organization
every one of the guests spoke concerning
past or future work with full appreciation
of local conditions. The arrangements for
f laces of meeting nre most excellent. The
'eople's church contains an Ideally perfect
auditorium, with a seating capacity of l.Kfl.
of which S25 may be accommodated on the
lower floor and 1,025 in the gallery, which
extends far back over the foyer. Every
word may be heard through the auditorium
spoken in an ordinary voice. This will be
ample for the day meetings, though even
ing arrangements may be necessary else
where, either In the Armory or In a new
building In process of erection. There are
seventeen rooms in the building, five of
which will seat from 100 to 3tf persons.
These may be utilized for credentials,
bureau of Information, committee rooms
and the many other necessary purposes.
The gallery seats are all equally fine and
It mav be arranged for the seating there
of distinguished guests, thus making It
one of the most desirable parts of the
house. The Rvan hotel will doubtless be
headquarters, distanced five or ten minutes
walk from the places of meeting. State
headquarters will be planned at the old
capltol building, remarkably arranged, with
a central hall for conferences of tate
presidents or members, and surrounded by
smaller halls. The expenses of these rooms
will he merely nominal. The Twin Cities
are on most friendly terms and a day of
recreation may be arranged between the
two with trollev and water rides to Minne
haha falls and the lakes. The capltol build
ing will be a magnificent setting if an even
ing reception Is held In the central rotunda.
The following women have been elected
to officer the local biennial board of ar
rangements: President, Mrs. Charles Dib
ble; first vice president. Mrs. J. W. Eder
ton; second vice president. Mrs. A. g.

a living while recuperating In the bracing

KRUG PARK'S BIG ATTRACTIONS
Manager Cole Makes Special Pro
vision for Sunday and Holiday
Visitors.
To the holiday-maker and pleasure-seeker
KrUg Park's many advantages are so de
cidedly obvious that It Is hardly necessary
to make any extended comment thereon,
still the general excellence of the complete
equipment, demands a few words. Th-
thoroughgoing manner In which the beau
tifully parked grounds are cared for Is an
attraction in Itself, few people realizing
that almost before the last person has left
the park at 11 o'clock a force of men starts
In gathering up the accumulated debris of
the day's crowd, and from that time until
the park opens Its gates for the reception
of the public on the following day a con
stant effort Is maintained to brighten tho
grounds to the Krug Park standard. Man
ager Cole has prepared an act that Is
unique. This afternoon, for the first time
anywhere, a woman will be shot from the
barrel of a moster cannon attached to a
balloon. Miss Madeline Waldemer has suf
ficient nerve and courage to make this
hazardous attempt. The balloon which will
raise the cannon and its load of fair hu
manity is specially prepared and Inflated
by Prof. J. Waldorf Hall. This Is the chief
attraction of the day's events.
The Royal Canadian band will help cel
ebrate, Bandmaster Finn having a program
prepared that fairly bristles with patriotism.
Everyone will be taken care of both on
Sunday and the Fourth In a thoroughly
satisfactory manner. The cafe has a menu
prepared that will tickle the palate of the
most particular epicure, Mr. George Kay
being In personal charge. The flight of
the bird can be duplicated by taking an ex
hlleratlng ride on the roller coaster, the
sweep down Its Inclines counterfeiting the
flight of a bird fairly well. Wonderland,
still a favorite. Is a liberal education In
itself, and those who ride the boats in and
through the channels come back to the
exit better versed than before in both the
flora and fauna of the arctic and tropical
regions.

Humblrd got In on a Burlington train Fri
day afternoon and was escorted to River
view and assigned to a comfortable room
In the bear pit. In less than twenty min
utes he had made his escape, something the
old timers had never thought of doing, and
was strolling around the premises observ
ing the sights of Interest and scaring the
sixteen new buby deer half to death. The
reception committee waited upon Humblrd
and induced him to accept other quarters
in a stout, fireproof birdcage of steel con
struction throughout. Here the Idaho cit
izen and ldoi of the lumbermen consented
to take up nla abode. The lumbermen
want Humblrd tamed so they ran lead hlin
into the convention hall at the end of a
chain when they gather here next winter.

KANSAS CITY, July l.-Contempt pro
ceedings against the Atchison, Topeka &
Santu Fe Railway company, charging that
company with being guilty of the violation
of an injunction issued at Kansas City by
Judge John F. Phillips on March 24. 1902,
restraining the rond from giving rebates,
was filed in the United States district court
here today at the Instigation of Milton D.
Purdy of Washington, D. C assistant at
torney general, who -came here recently at
the direction of the attorney general to file
the suit upon behalf of the government.
Although Judge Phillips' restraining or
der, Issued three years ago, was directed
against seven other corporations besides
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, the suit
filed today Is solely against the latter
road. The other railroads enjoined pre
viously by Judge Phillips were the Chi
cago, Burlington & Qulncy, Chicago &
Alton. Missouri Pacific, Wabash, Chicago,
Milwaukee & St. Paul, Chicago, Rock
Island & Pacific and the Chicago Great
Western. A similar order was Issued by
Judge Grosscup In Chicago on March 26,
1902, against six other roads.
The suit filed today at the Instigation of
the federal government recites that the
Santa Fe railroad up to the time the In
junction was granted had been engaged in
the practice of granting unlawful rebates
and preferential rates and facilities to cer
tain favored shippers whose names were to
the complainant unknown, in packing
house products, dressed meats, grain and
the products of grain, which were not
granted to the public generally, and that
the Santa Fe railroad had also been grant
ing unlawful rebates and preferential rates
and facilities to certain other favored ship
pers on many of the principal commodities
which constituted and comprised the ordi
nary necessities of life. The information,
after noting the issuance of the restraining
orde- on March 25, 1902, says that between
March 26, 1902, and November 27, 1904, the
Santa Fe railroad and Its officers and
agents unlawfully, wrongfully and know
ingly violated and disregarded the said re
straining order.
The Information asserts specifically that
the Santa Fe favored the Colorado Fuel
and Iron company In giving rates on coal,
saying It carried the coal of said company
"at a less rate than the rates named for
such services In defendant's published and
established schedules and granted and paid
rebates to said Colorado Fuel and Iron
company."
The Information asserts that the Atchi
son, Topeka & Santa Fe railway is in con
tempt "for the wilful and repeated viola
tions of said temporary restraining order,"
and asks the federal court to cite the com
pany's officials to appear In court and
make answer for such acts.
Judge Phillips did not Indicate toTlay
what action he might take In the matter.
