A Word About '.S.ttli-mente."
The conversation by snuo cliunce
haddrlfiid npou the so:lal reefs Thu

"How shall we hoie lor the rcjjen

A shadow .nwent over the young

1 hrniigh the kindness of my young
friend Curl Smith, who is deeply und
actively Interested In the practical
working out of the social problem, I
visited the Colleze se' I lenient at Z
West Ch Icago Ave., which wss estati
llshi'd bv the Nnrlhwesteru Universi
ty. It was ou Frl ay night we called
there uml there were twit clubs In ses
sion hesl .eg the Legal Dists'iisary, of
which Mr. Smith is the head. 1 had
iievri ac'uully been in a settlciil'iitt of
this sort before, but was very speedily
made (to feel nt home hy I he sweet
faced women who liavo given up time
and 1 1 fit tn the cause of humanity.
The house is not a commodious one
but there seemed to be no part of It
Hint was not devoted to the work. In
the parlors were congregated the
mol hers of the neighborhood. It Was
their literary club night and the pro
ct'cdings were very Interesting though
on uccoutit of a limited acquaintance
with thu Herman language 1 was able
to understand only uboul a half of ul,
that wns said. They were all (ierman
Dianv of then.' speaking no Kngllsh.
rre'cntiy a sweet-raced motherly
wiunnii came tvid took me down Into
the big basement room to see the chil
drcn. There were tlfty of them, boys
and girls from tho stVects nnd alleys,
and ranging In years from teu to six
teen. The only qualification required
to gain ndmissk.u to the Hoys' nnd
Girls' Friday Night Club is cood be
havior while them.
"At for the rest." said the sweet-
faced woman, "They learn from oIh
servntlon that cleanliness is preferable
to dirt."
"What do you do when a hoy conies
in with grimy hands ami face'."' I
asked.
"Nothing more thuu to make him
welcome and to interest him In the
games ami give him such a happy
evening that ho w attle to come again.
And ho does come again, but invaria
bly we tl ml that ho his made some
attempt to Improve, his personal ap
pcarance,"
They were just concluding tho busi.
nest, meeting. Urged by his neigh
tors one boy rose und bashfully said:
1 move to adorn the iiuctii g."
"Tbit nint right, that aint the
word." came In a chorus of whispers
from the rest. "Say 'journ the meet
ing."
The young lady who nets as presi
dent for this club came to the rescue.
"Try ngaln," she kindly advised, "The
word is adjourn." And the little
fellow made the motion properly and
the meeting was speedily adjourned.
Then the tables were moved back, the
chairs carried into another room nnd
the boys mill girls proceeded tnei'joy
themselves.
One hoy w as lame, and the president
played dominoes with him all the
cve.,lng at a table in the corner, while
others romped and danced and sang in
happy healthful abandon. The dull
fsces brightened visibly; they were
having a good time In a perfectly nat
ural way, aud a good tlmo was a thing
unknow n to them w ithout the aid of
the sittlemeut.

down when the legal consultations
upstairs w ere over and we tood look

"Do you not see," he asked, "in

"Too plainly," I replied, "but hu

Up to this writing Mr. Ui-edbu
exactly 49 votes to Mr. Morton'

Tho nity election takes jilao
next Monday. Good men have
been placed in the field for the re
spective positions to be filled. Tie
most important question that is to
bo voted upon, is whether thecitr

tho taxpayers will vote the propo.

The wife of ex-Senator Piatt
few days ago received from Florida
the entire crop of oranges from her
plantation. Mrs. 1'latt's orange
grovo has for several years been a
source of satisfaction to tho fam
ily. It has also been a means of
profit to Mrs. Piatt's own pocket
book. Mr. Piatt has been proud
of his wife's financiering. About
six years ago the Platts were trav
eling in Florida, when Mrs Piatt's
tancy was captured by a large
plantation which was for sale.
Several seasons money was ruado
on tho investment, but this year
tlie orange crop was a total failure,
and it' cost Mrs. Piatt something
like $500 to raise half a dozen
pieces of fruit, tho same being te
entiro crop.
Some one has BUtreested that the
idea now under consideration at
Washington, to utilize the mail
system as a meanB of circulating
the weather uroenostications will)
if adopted, strike another blow at
loiter writing. It is proposed w
nave the weather bureau tolegrapa
its bulletins to the post office twice
a day so they may insert in tlie
stamp that is marked on the bacs
of every envelope. By this device
a man can tell what tho wetther
was in the town wLcre tho letter
was mailed and what the weather
bureau guessed it would bo for the
24 hours following. Many letter
writers now fill several lines of
note paper with a discriptun oi
the weather that they are enjoying.
Not frequently this prove to be
the only information of interest,
and as the postofliee official be
lieve that if this dapartment fur-
nishea tins news on the envelope
it would in some cneis. make an
f lu'lnsure superfluous.
