Good Prosrretts In the Vixrlons t)e if partments nnd Satisfactory Con dition of the Finances. The annual meeting of the Portland "Women's Union -was held' yesterday at the "Women's Home, 510 Flanders street, and was attended by a large number of members and friends of the Union. Re ports of officers were heard, which , showed that the Home and the organi sation are In flourishing condition. The president, Mrs. C. H. Templeton, presid ed, and Mrs. "W. A. McRae -was appoint ed temporary secretary. 'The following officers were elected for the ensuing year; President, Mrs.' C. R. Templeton: first vice-president, Mrs. P. F. Morey; second vice-president. Mrs. John Conner; treasurer, Mrs. "William Mac master; secretary. Mrs. H. Y. Hamilton? members t)f the" board of directors, Mrs. P. J. Mann. Mrs. L. "White. Mrs, W. J. Honeyman, Mrs. R, F. Burrell. Report of President. Mrs. C R. Templeton gave" her report as president, saying: In part: "To review work well done, or i task successfully .accomplished, is always a pleasant occu pation. Nothing" Unusual happened dur ing the past year, and that Is- good. In the history of a nation, of an Individual, or of a cause, those years -are best In which thjngs generally follow their nat ural course of development and quietly work out their own destiny. The reports of our various committees will show that we have been peacefully active in every direction; that we have not only kept our own. but that commendable progress was made all along tthe line. It is my privilege to thank th ladles who so kindly and faithfully devoted their time and efTorts to our cause. "I am glad to be able to report that the number of our friends and supporters Is steadily growing. The better our work is known, the more highly it is appre ciated. The central Idea of the work of the Portland "Women's Union is the ad vancement of women. Therefore, we most cheerfully welcome the sister as sociation recently organized In our city. There are indeed many ways to further the cause of the self-supporting woman. Far from thinking that ours is the only method, we most heartily welcome every endeavor to nromote her welfare. She needs, as we all do, a heavenly message to. direct .her eye toward the higher things, the true, the beautiful, the good. Bpt she likewise needs, as we all do, that sun of earthly happiness which so beneficently smiles at us from among those kindly associations inseperably con nected with what we call our Home. "We try to Turmsn the business woman a place where she may be at Tiome after the wear and tear of her busy day.- A home supposes a mother. There Is no real home without a mother, and our board ing home Is no exception. "We have every reason to be proud ot our house mother. To her mothely heart, her Intelligent care, her wi!e management, we owe the Hest result of our work." Report of Household Committee. The report of the household committee -was read by Mrs. H. H. Northup. In part as- follows: "We report 50 meetings held during the sear, a quorum almost Always being present. At 15 meetings all the members were present. We have been able to add to the comfort and safety of the house in several ways and have much encouragement in knowing that those who may be privileged to make it their home will be benefited by these addi tions. The largest number registered during ons month was $0 in August, 1900. The number ot meals served for the year was 35.4S7. There- are now in the house 26 persons employed as follows: Four clerks, three unemployed, two business college students, three nurses, two dress makers, one talloress, one stenographer, one masseur, one hairdresser, one dental student, one copyist, one demonstrator, one art .student, one bookkeeper, one rei tired teacher, one domestic, one seam stress in fur store. ' "Criticisms, plain and courageous, have beennade,of our policy, which we gladly, welcome a6 ah indication of an Interest in the Union." Report of Industrial Committee. The report of the' industrial committee was given by Mrs. S. A Brown. "The advanced classes in kitchen garden opened October 2. 1900. with seven pupils. Thirty had been registered before the six months closed In April. "The primary class in kitchen garden opened October 2, 1900, with two pupils. Fifty-two had been registered before the close of the term.- "In the sewing department the class opened November 2, 1900, with 12 pupils. Forty-eight were registered before the close in April. "The kitchen garden work Is encour aging in the extreme. Our one great need Is more -workers. It Is earnestly hoped that the next annual report will not need to include an appeal for more teachers." The teport ot the treasurer. Mrs. "Wil liam Macmaster. showed that, beginning the year with an Indebtedness of $2800, the Union had reduced It, with the as sistance of friends and members, to $2300, and that within a few days the Unjon ex pected to pay $300 more on the mortgage debt, reducing it to $2000. The total re ceipts were $6310 63. and the balance, after all disbursements were made, was $168 42. Edncntlonal Work. Mrs. "W. J. Hawkins read the following report of the educational committee: "Owing to the very busy llveg of the Inmates of the Home, the sort of work done by the committee Is necessarily very limited. The study of physical cul tivation has proven to be the most ac ceptlble line, of work. The average mem bership of the class is about 14. Under the, able direction of Miss Collin It has been of great value." Woman's Exchange. Mrs. Laura Johnston reported as fol lows on the work of the "Woman's Ex change: "Future prospects for the "Woman's Ex change seem bright, and we hope that our Interest may Be quickened for the good of this philanthropic work. Through the .kindness of the president and the board of he T. "W. G. A. we have re ceived permission to place In their rooms free of charge a showcase, such as stands In the corridor of the Portland Hotel. This will enable the" committee to place on sale many articles, which through lack of space they have been enable to receive In the past. As the ordinary accepted constitution of a "Women's Exchange reads. 'Its object is to provide a depot for the reception and sale of any mar ketable article which a woman can make In her own home, or any valuable article. wnicn ner necessities oouge ner to dis pose of, thereby assisting a woman to turn to personal profit whatever -useful talent she may possess. "We hope by es tablishing this depot to reach the very keynote of our work, 'not the good done to It, but the good done by it. " The financial statement of the" Ex change follows: RECEIPTS.

MASTEN.N Well-Knowa Financial. Agent ot 'Southern Pacific Company. N. K. Masten, financial agent for the Southern Pacific Company, and father of E. C. Masten,, the assistant sec retary of -the Chamber of Commerce In this city, died of heart disease at hi3 home in San Francisco, last night, at 9 o'clock. He was SO years and one day old, and came to California in 1849. At first, he was connected with the Hibernla and the Nevada banks, and then 'lie went into 'the railroad business. . .He tvas one of the few surviving members of the old Union Cluh. But It Is as the able financial agent of the Southern Pacific Company that Mr. Masten became best known. He became a trusted lieutenant of the late C. P., Huntington, and in the j panic, of 193 he engineered difficult finan cial prooiems. At one time tne southern Pacific had toay $3,000,000 as the semi annual .Interest on its bonds. It was demonstrated that the sum could hot be raised In San Francisco, but that Mr. Huntington could borrow It In New York. In the meantime Mr. Masten negotiated small loans in San Francisco, from day to day, until "theIg loan came -along. It. was intricate work, but Mr. Masten suc ceeded, and earned Mr. Huntington's gratitude.. In 1S95, Mr. MaBten's health was underlined by blood poisoning, and he became, seriously ill at his residence at Menlo Park, but eventually recovered. A week ago the old trouble prostrated him, and thjs, with an attack of heart disease, caused his death.
