experience, at any rate, and that adds
to her charm. I find myself, at 0,

others than I have ever been.
People Over 40 la Vaasuard.
"Today it U not the young; but the

who are in the vanguurd of the great
army of progress and endeavor. Had

the Individual." said the Countess, spir
itedly. "Why shouldn't a man at 40 and 60
and 60. and a woman as well, be at
their best usefulness? Why shouldn't
they be at their greatest beauty?
Youth has Its own particular beauty,
and so has middle age. and so has the
Autumn time of life. Just as the sea

"The modern woman who Is a suc

Countess.

mean millions of dollars In immediate

Added sections which do not bear di

ernment suit provide that lands that
may be recovered by the Government
by forfeiture from the railroad com
pany shall go back to public domain,
and after decree is entered shall be
thrown open to entry under the draw

Another added section takes care of

WATER USE TO BE TOPIC
Committee Preparing Irrigation
ConRTCss' Programme.
SALT .LAKE CITY, Utah. March 17.
Subjects for discussion at the next Na
tional irrigation congress are receiv
ing attention from the executive com
mittee of the congress tomorrow.
The distribution of water through
laterals and small ditches will find a
place on the programme. The meas

the drainage of Irrigated tracts are to
be treated and the probable effect upon
the Irrigated states of the opening of
the Panama Canal will receive notice.
Conferences between officers of the
Reclamation Service and reports of the

Wealthy, and Prominent Men and
Women Interested In Social Or-
Society Capital to Be
Thrown Into Campaign.
der
NEW YORK. March 17. (Special.)
Prominent men and women have en
listed in a new organization called the
League for Social Order, to combat
woman's suffrage, Socialism, the di
vorce evil and such movements and
propaganda as impress the member
as dangerous to the commonwealth.
It is said that persons of wealth are
interested in the organization and are
backing it with large capital.
The opening gun of the league's
campaign was fired at a rousing meet
ing in the Waidorf-Astoria recently
when William J. O'Donnell, an officer
of the society, delivered an adJress
outlining the alms of his colleagues.
The league is not an exclusive so
ciety organization, declare its spon
sors, but is open to everyone in line
with Its Ideas who is willing to pay
the 1 a year dues. The divorce evil
will be attacked on the ground that It
Is undermining American homes: wo
man's suffrage because it foments sex
antagonism and Socialism because it is
regarded as a misguided and harmful
movement.
Work la Constructive.
Miss Mary L. Stebblns. 43 Fifth ave
nue, is president of the league. "Our
work will be constructive, not destruc
tive," said she.
O'Donnell, who is a lawyer and one
of the vice-presidents of the league,
explained its purposes and plans:
"We will open our headquarters and
begin our campaign shortly," he said.
"I tired the first gun in a lecture at
the Waldorf. Our first object is to at
tack the divorce evil, to unite to amend
the laws that In parts of the country
are shaming our civilization, and
through the home to save the country.
There Is too much collusion these days
in "the divorce court. Often the Judge
Is Imposed upon. We are going to in
stitute a wide and sweeping propa
ganda and enlist as many as we can
in forwarding a great cause.
"We are against woman's suffrage.
It takes the women from their homes
and those who go insidiously under
mine the home-loving domestic quali
ties of those who would never leave
of their own accord. This phase of
our campaign will be under the direc
tion of Mrs. RoBHlter Johnson.
sor1aUam I Opposed.
"Perhaps the biggest work of all we
are going to undertake In this big
movement will be done under the' di
rection of our social and Industrial de
partment. We intend to start an ontl-
Soclalist campaign and at the same
time see if It is not possible to find a
sane way of freeing ourselves from the
evils the Socialists rail against. We
want to show tho capitalistic class
what we conceive their duty toward
labor to be. and vice versa. The great
question now is to obtain a more equita
ble distribution of the Joint product of
capital and labor."
The officers of the league are: Miss
Mary L. Stebblns, president; Mrs. limil
Kulchllr.g, Arthur Randolph Green, M.
D., Rev. Charles II. Parkhurst, D. I)..
Rev. Rudolph Grossman, D. D., and
William J. O'Donnell. vice-presidents;

members of the board of directors and

houses of Congress this week. When
the House passes the excise income

there will have been ended.
Democratic revision measures are
piling up In the Senate. The finance

this week.
Meanwhile the Democrats and "pro

express confidence that common

legislation.
Democratic leaders in the House arc
determined to speed up legislation.
