Only a few days and the eye9 of all the club women of the United States will be turned to our Oregon Rose City, Portland. for the General Federation Coun cil meeting will open there May 31, and continue until June 3rd. These councils convene only once in two years, alternating with the biennial of the General Fed eration of Womens' Clubs, and these meetings are greatly im portant not only to clubdom bi t to the educational and economic interests of the country at large. Mrs. Percy V. Pennybacker, the Texas historian and club woman, who is president of the Nation al body, will be there to preside. She needs no introduction to the thinking element of America, for she has managed the affairs of this great organization of women with dignity and ability. Her judgment in all the work of the clubs is alway3 to be re lied upon, and her address on this occasion will doubtless be an inspiration to all who hear her. There will be many large and brilliant social functions, Mrs. Pennybacker being the honored guest. independence Civic League, which for several months has been duly federated, will be rep resented at this important coun cil. "J he club members and invited guests will motor over early in the afternoon.

If ANTICIPATED EVENT Coming just at a time when there is 'almost a dearth of things musical in Independence, the recital to be given at the Methodist Church, Thursday evening, May 27th, by Katherine Neal Simmons, Soprano, assisted by Florence Jackson Pianist and Accompanist, and Mrs. Gilhoue en, ViolinUt, is most keenly an ticipated and promises to be lib erally patronized. Mrs. Simmons is a member ol an old Southern family of musi cal lineage and she will display the delightful intonation of a real Southerner. Having finished music in Tex as, her native state, she pursued her art in Cincinnati, Ohio, la ter going to New York where she perfected a remarkable rop ertoire of Italian, Fren:h, Ger man and Old English together with Modern Engl sh and Ameri can songs so pleasii g for concert entertaining. As a result of studying the languages with a native of each country, Mrs. Simmons sings with true diction, and an even ing with her will be one of rare enjoyment. Oregon press en comiums, besides those of other states, bear glowhg tribute of her artistic interpretations.

Yielding to the Majority. A Philadelphia physician in de claring that insunity was frequently productive of sound logic tempered by wit told the story of a pnticnt he once met ia an asylum. lie came across I his patient while strolling through the ground and, stopping, spoke to him. After a brief conversation the physician said: "Why are you here?"" "Simply a difference of opinion," replied the patient. "I said all men were mad, and all men said I was mad, and the majority won."

One of the most famous of post mortem jokes win that perpetrated by the donor of t tier celebrated So nne museum of pictures and other vnhinlilo ohjets d'mt to England, the Into Sir John Sonne, who died in 1837. In his will Sir John made pro vision for the opening of three Heal ed cupboards on certain specified dates in the presence of the trus tees. In 18G15 that is to say, al most tl'irty years after the death of the testator the first of the mys terious receptacles was with much ceremouy and breaking of seuU opened in tho presence of a ooru mil tee of men, with the tlifn presi dent of the Kovnl academy, Sir I'. Grant, at their lieud. Instead of a priceless treasure or some evidence that would throw an entirely new light upon some doubtful incident in political history the contents of the cupboard proved to bo worth less accounts, letters and station ery. Twenty years passed by, and the interest that had smoldered after the diouppointment of 18C6 was again fanned into flame at the pros pect of breaking the eeala of the second cupboard, at which rite there were present, among others, Dr. Alfred Waterhouse, it. A., and Sir (then Dr.) B. W. Richardson. Liko the cupboard mentioned in the well known nursery rhyme, Sir John's second cabinet proved "bare" of any sensation, tho contents being chief ly composed of letters relating to certain long forgotten family quar rels that had not even tho merit of being interesting. If some of thoce authorized to be present at tho opening of the third and last receptacle of mystery were dubious about the profit that would accrue by ieiiinj; Uo h'ut of the day fall upon the contents thereof after sixty years' darkness, one at least, Sir li. W. ItioliuriU.n, looked forward with unabated intercut to that day in 1800 when the lust seal would bo broken and the mystery solved, l ut he, ul.is, died jnt two days before the ceremony v.ai per formed, and the fact that Sir John had played a practical joke upon posterity was duly confirmed by the prcM nee of a collection of perfectly worthless letters und miners.
