YEAR OF EFFICIENT WORK
POIWLAIVD "WOMEN'S CMOS AT
AKMJAIr MEETTSG.
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:

DEATH 0P.N. K. 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.

"ConsIderaTjJe timber land Is changing

"Last year there were too many agents'

prospective purchasers became disgusted.
One agent rdujd ask double what another
did, while the owner ot- the land ,wouIa
come in, for a small share of the proceeds.
Now the buyer and owner get together
and make a price; the cruiser is sent to
ascertain the location and value, and the
deal Is made without paying anybddy a
