That the energies anel abilities of the women members of any city church are too much "frittered away" through church suppers, church dinners, and what are popularly known as "dime entertainments," is the emphatic opinion of the" Rev. Au gusta Chapin, D. D.. of Mount Vernon. N. Y. This opinion she expressed In a thor oughly convincing manner at the Univer sallst Women's Alliance, holding its March meeting in the Church of Our Father in Brooklyn. "Women should not be counted upon to supply the financial deficiencies of our big; city churches," said Dr. Chapin, in the course of her address upon "The Problems of a City Church." "Their energies and abilities should not be frittered away in church fairs, church suppers, sewing circles, dime entertain ments, and all the money raising schemes now in vogtie among our big popular churches. For my part 1 wish the women would go on strike. They are now so ab sorbed in their suppers and their fairs that they are in no position to render efficient aid to their pastors. Women should not have to eke out In this way th'e amount that ought to come In with regular contri butions. Plain, straightforward methods of obtaining money are the only ones that should have to be employed by a church. At all events, the women should not have to shoulder the financial burdens of the church." The Federation Biennial. New York Times. When the club women from the North, South and East turn their steps westward in May to attend the biennial meeting of the General Federation of Women's Clubs they will nnd a warm reception awaiting them at Los Angeles and one of the finest women's clubhouse's in the country. It Is built in the California mission style, a rec tangular building with a patio, or inner court, such as is to be seen in Spanish and Spanish-American buildings. This fs in closed on three sides by arcades. The building is two-storied, roofed with terra cotta, and has the effect of the San Ga briel Mission belfry at the south. There are a large assembly hall, several parlors, and reception, cloak and toilet rooms, a banquet hall, a well-equipped kitchen and a butler's pantry. The patio is to be Inclosed for the occasion, and will give an extra room of thirty-five by lt5 feet. The clubwomen will arrive at a gay time at Los Angeles, for "La Fiesta de los Flores" will be in prog ress. This is well, for the conventlonites ma-y have troubles of their own during the session of the congress. The color question is coming up for permanent settlement, and things may become so warm in the pretty clubhouse that outside distractions will be a welcome relief. Criticism of CI nl Women. Universalist Leader. With sixteen national women's organiza tions it would apiear that the Interests of the better part of mankind, so to speak, should be well taken care of. We l?ave attended with some closeness of observa tion to the proceedings of several of these organizations lately to find out what they are doing and how much -the welfare of woman has been advanced by them. We confess to a feeling of disappointment in the result of the examination. At a meet ing of the National Women's Council In Washington, last week, representatives of ten or more of these organizations told the story of their aims and achievements. Either they dealt in glittering generalities or there was little to tell. The suspicion sometimes intrudes that the chief business of some of these organizations, not unlike those of some men's organizations, is just to keep the mill going, regardless of grist. What Women Are Do in nr. Kate Greenaway's memory Is to be hon ored in London by a number of English noblemen who are collecting funds to en dow cots in children's hospitals in the centers of Great Britain. Mrs. E. Burd Grubb, of Edgewater Park, N. J., has had conferred upon her by the Queen of Spain the Order of Noble Ladles of Marie IuHa, an honor which no Amer ican woman has ever before enjoyed. Mrs. Leslie M. Shaw met the former Gov ernor of Iowa, now secretary of the treas ury, when they both became interested in the Methodist Sunday school at Denison, la.. In 1S74. They were married three years later and have three children, Enid, Eail and Erma, the eldest of whom is just out of college. Miss Ada Honore Eliot, twenty-four years old, who was one of the first to volunteer as a probationary officer when that oillce was established in the New York city Po lice Courts some months ago, has sailed for Europe to visit the courts of the lead ing European cities and observe the proba tion methods there. She will visit London, Paris. Rome, St. Petersburg, Berlin and Dublin. The marriage of Miss Clara Leonore Huntington, an heiress to many millions, and Gilbert Brooks Perkins, sou of Judge C. A.

He has studied languages In Germany and traveled ex tensively. Mrs. Howard Kingscote. the English nov elist, who Is now lecturing In this country, has been giving her views to a New York reporter on American and English audi ences. "If first Impressions are better than experience." she said, "I have a right to compare Ensllsh audiences with American. Your audiences are out for the serious, are anxious to hear facts, to conquer one more department of human knowledge. They Judge a lecture by its specific gravity. Now, with the English, it Is all so different. They come a little world weary and demand titil- latiou. They want wit in a lecture. But the social group at the end of the lecture is un known to us. You Americans almost mob a speaker. Our audiences hasten away as if the lecturer were something contami nating." I'rof. J. II. (irny' Appointment. CHICAGO. March 19. Prof. John H.

Emmerich Explain the Situa tion to the Student Interest at Once .Stimulated. The male students of the M. T. II. S., especially those interested in athletics, as sembled yesterday morning in the audi torium on a call from Professor Emmerich, so that the students could be further ad vised and enlightened on the "D" rule, which has played havoc among the ath letes. Since the rule went into effect, about two months ago, a great many of the boys have been scheming to get around It, but Mr. Emmerich has refused to move from his first announcement. The new rule has disrupted the ranks of the field athletes and also the baseball team. The latter or ganization has lost a great number of its prominent men on account of the enforce ment of this rule, it is said. When- the students assembled yesterday morning the following letter. from Mr. Emmerich was read: "Boys who are now members of athletic teams, or who will be as soon as such teams are fully organized, must keep their work at school above the passing mark; i. e., they must have at least a 'C plus' in four subjects on their advance report cards. "Those so removed may, however, be re stored by the principal at any time when they show an earnest effort and marked Improvement in their school work. "The T)' rule Is applicable only to the four subjects required to be taken by every student every half year. If a boy carries five subjects and has the number of credits or records which are necessary for his class standing, and If he receives a D' In any one of the five subjects (prescribed subjects excepted), does not debar him from eligibility to an athletic team." Professor Emmerich, by way of illustra tion of the rule, said that If a student in a certain grade had twenty credits and a passing mark in four subjects on the ad vance report card the fifth subject would not be considered. He al so said that if any student in good standir.g who has com pleted the course, but has not yet received his diploma and carries at least three sub jects with fifteen periods of work per week at school, is eligible to a team. The rule, as explained by Mr. Emmerich, will prove more encouraging to the stu dents who have? aspirations in the athletic line, it is said. There are a number of boys at the school who were taking five subjects last year and in the extra sub ject received a "D." When they saw their reports they gave up hope of belonging to any of the athletic bodies and have since given little attention to practicing with any of the teams as it is said they were certain they would not be allowed to get on the teams under Mr. Emmerich's ruling. Under the ruling as given out yesterday the stu dents that took extra subjects last term and who failed In them will now begin ac tive work for the teams they desire to Join. It Is said the baseball team, which suffered most under the rule, will now recover some of its best men and will this year again Xresent a strong front. The track team was shattered by the old rule, but there were nearly loO candidates for places on the team. It is said now that each student will co operate with Mr. Emmerich in trying to keep the standard of intellectuality of the school as high as possible while the stu dents participate in athletics. After the students had listened to Pro fessor' Emmerich's modification of the new "D" rule they discussed what action the athletic bodies from Shortridge High School will take in regard to the letter sent them some time ago. The letter sent asked the faculty of the school to debar the students who received "D" marks at the February term from participating in any athletic events during the next term. As yet no answer has been received from the North Side school, it was said yesterday, and the M. T. H. S. athletes say they think it is not fair that the teachers of Shortridge school should fall to classify the students the same as is done in the South Side school. The letter, when received at the Short ridge school, was referred to an executive committee of the athletic association, which framed a set of rules and then gave them to the faculty, but as yet the rules have not been made public or referred to the South Side school for approval. The Challenge Accepted. Members of the Senora De Fortuna and the Sheykhs "frats" of the M. T. II. S. will engage in an athletic meet and baseball game soon. The Senora De Fortunas chal lenged the Sheykhs and the latter are will ing to accept. Many of the members of the Senora De Fortunas belong to the track team, and It is thought the "frat" will have no trouble in winning the field events. The Sheykhs have In their membership nearly all the members of the bareball team, and they feel sure of winning this event. NEWS OF MUSIC EVENTS. Harold llnner'i Manager Calls Him a Suhjectlve Player anel Explain. The manager of Harold Bauer, who will give a recital at the Propylaeum. on Satur day afternoon, calls him a "subjective pianist." In explanation of this phrase he says: "It Is subjective art that convinces even In these days, when personality is so gTeat a thing in a virtuoso, even as it is among actors or public speakers. A sub jective artist is first of all a musician in the highest and best sense of the word, one who knows not only what to do, but what to refrain from doing; one who is master of expression, yet without extravagance or undue sentimentality, a finished tech nician who uses such means simply to further artistic ends; one who is individual, yet using such individuality in a manner that the composer's intent Is pictured to the listener with the utmost clearness and the personality of the performer is forgot ten for the moment in the completeness of a perfect musical portrayal. Mr. Bauer Is universally admitted to be by the thou sands of music lovers that have heard him among the greatest of subjective artists; one who combines all the above mentioned qualities in such a manner as to make his performances of the highest enjoyment as well as of the greatest musical value. That is the secret of his success, . obtained in a legitimate and unobtrusive manner, free from a flourish of brazen trumpets, beating of drums or clap-trap of any sort. The story of his life Is not of the legendary or ultra romantic sort; rather a plain, sim ple account of one who has accomplished much with a great natural talent developed and matured by conscientious, Indefatigable- work. Harold Bauer is of mixed parentage, bis father being a German by birth and his mother English. He is now nearly twenty-nine years of age, having been born In 1S73. The Festival Chorus. The spring festival chorus will have one more rehearsal In the Shortridge High School hall, and that on next Wednesday night. The public will hear it on the fol lowing Tuesday night. April 1. In Tomlin son Hall, with the Chicago orchestra and three soloists Gertrude May Stein, Electa Glfford and Charles W. Clark In Grieg's "Olaf Trygvasson." The chorus will have a rehearsal with the erchestra and the soloists from 12 to 1 o'clock on that Tuesday. The orchestra will open the festival on the preceding nlKht. The chorus has been rehearsing on Wednesday nights for six weeks under the direction of Mr. Stock, who is assistant to Mr. Thomas, conductor of the Chicago or chestra. "Olaf" Is peculiarly representa tive of the ancient Norwegian spirit. Its scene is a temple of the old gods, and the chorus Impersonates the people, who attest their confidence In the gods at the approach of Olaf, who Is bent on conquering and Christianizing the country. The music Is rich in harmony, almost Oriental In color, and the climaxes are of great strength. Last night's rehearsal showed the choru. which numbers four hundred, to have the work well in hand. The voices are fresh and most of the singers are students of music. Some of them sang in the May music lestivals. IalereirUI Ha a ev Opera. A dispatch from Chicago last night said that Madame Paderewski, wife of the pian ist and composer, had announced that h has in preparation an opera to follow "Manru." The music Is nearly complete. The opera is eMstlnctly Slavonic. MASONRY IN INDIANAPOLIS. Capt. XV. E. English's II00W IneI ly the Iletwen-JIcrrlll Company. "The History of Masonry in Indianapo lis." by William E. English, has come from the press of the Bowen-Merrill Company. The book, handsomely bound and contain ing the phetographs of many score mem bers eif the Masonic order living and dead, is the fruit of several years' research and labor by the author. Its eledication is "To My Masonic Brothers of Indianapolis." Captain English includes in his interesting work the history of all the Indianapolis lodges and Masonic bodies and short biog raphies of the more famous of their mem-' bers. Ancient craft Masonry was riret estab lished in this city March 27, 122, when Cen ter Lodge, No. 2';. came into legal Masonic existence, with Harvey Gregg as worship ful master. Milo R. Davis as senior warden. John T. Osborne as junior warden and Samuel Henderson as 'secretary. Fourtee n members made' up the lodge, and there were. Captain English points out. only 502 Masons in the entire State. In the history of Cen ter Lodge are some of the most interesting pages of the book. Captain English tells ef the 'Mark days" of Masonry, when the so called "Morgan disappearance" created in this country a strong anti-Masonic feeling and members of the order over all the coun try either abandoned their meetings or else met in secret at rare intervals in private houses and out-of-the-way places. Center Eodge weathered the steirm and in had reorganied and regularly convened. Center Lodge once received a visit from the Hun garian patriot. Iouls Kossuth, who wit nessed as a brother cratfsman the confer ring of degrees. Marion Lodge, No. C5, which the author next speaks of, was organized Oct. 1S16. It contained originally eight members. Cap ital City Lodge, No. 312. was organized May 2tf. with twelve original members. An cient Landmarks Eodge, No. 310. received a dispensation on the same day in the same year. The next to be organized was Mystic Tie Lodge, No. ÄS, which came into exist ence Sept. 2C, 1S68, with seventeen members. Oriental Lodge. No. COO, with seventeen charter members, came into existence April 25, 1874. Pentalpha, No. 564. was born Oct. 20, 18S1. May 22, ISSS, logan Lodge was chartered by the Grand Chapter; it had at that time forty-three members. Veritas was organized Feb. 20. Concordia Lodge and Teutonia Lodge had their char ters arrested n 1SG6 and ls71, respectively. Captain English reviews carefully the events connected with the history of the Indianapolis Masanic Relief Board; the In dianapolis Masonic Burial Ground Associa tion; the Indianapolis Chapter, Royal Arch Masons; the Keystone Chapter, Royal Arch Masons; the Indianapolis Council, Royal and Select Masters; the Raper Command er)', Knights Templar; Ancient and Accept ed Scottish Rite.

R.; Indiana Sovereign Consistory, A. A. S. R.; Murat Temple, An cient Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine; Queen Esther Chapter, Order of the East ern Star, and Naomi Chapter, Order of the Eastern Star. A valuable feature of the book is the list of those belonging to the various lodges at the present time, the names of the past offi cers anel the list of those belonging to the Scottish Rite and to Murat Temple.

Harriman sought to acquire a majority of Northern Pacific common. He learned from J. P. Morgan about May 5 or 6 that some inter ests In New York were making large pur chases of Northern Pacific and later he was informed . that these purchases were for Mr. Harriman. In the following August Mr. Kennedy says he acquired lO.uoü shares of Northern Pacific from J. 1. Morgan ,c Co. Mr. Kennedy said he was told in August that J. P. Morgaii Co. would like to dis pose of some of their holdings, so he agreed to take 1Ü.0U0 shares. In reply to a question he said he had not heard that between May 1 and May 9 J. P. Morgan had pur chased from Slö.O'iO.ouO to $18,uuu,0.iu of the stock. Mr. Kennedy said the Northern Se curities Company had been thought of for many years before it was formed. It was true, he said, that Mr. Hill and his as sistants had no difficulty in electing direc tors of the Great Northern Railroad. Orig inally the plan was to turn over to the Se curities Company only the Great Northern shares held by the controlling interest, but later this was modified so as to allow all stockholders to convert their shares into Northern Security stock. "In the autumn of 11HJ1 elid not those gen tlemen have a majority of both the North ern Pacific and the Great Northern stocks?" Mr. Kennedy was asked. "I did not know about the stock of the Great Northern. I did know they held a majority of the Northern Pacific stock, at least I was so Informed." Mr. Kennedy said the object of the North ern Securities Company was to protect th3 holdings of the Northern Pacific against such an attack as occurred here last fcpring and which resulted in tbe panic. He said that originally it was the idea to pool the Northern Pacific stock only. "Was it the purpose of you gentlemen to place the stock 01 the Northern Securities Company on the market for miscellaneous purposes?" asked Mr. Eancaster. "1 cannot remember that any such thing was ever discussed or suggested." "Was it not your Intention to acquire other property besides the Northern Pa cific and the Great Northern?" Mr. Kennedy said there had been sug gestions in that direction. He knew noth ing of his own knowledge about a pur chase of $11.(m).(m) or J12.0" U.) of Great Northern stock by Mr. Hill. He understood the stock was purchase-d, but he did not know how much. He purchased 10.000 share. himself. The examiner next turned his attention to the election of Mr. Harriman to the di rectorate of the Chicago. Burlington fc C'uincy. Mr. Kennedy said he could not give him any information as to why Mr. Harri man was elected a director of the Burling ton. "Do you know when Harriman sold his Northern Paciiic stovk to J. P. Morgan.'" asked Mr. Eancaster. "In the autumn, I believe," replied Mr. Kennedy. "Do you know that at the time their names were proposed for election ein tue board of director ot the Northern Pacific Company the relations between Mr. Scnil'f and Mr. Harriman wer? very mueh strained?" asked the examiner. Mr. Kennedy answered that he did nt know it. This closed the examination of Mr. Kennedy. George J. Perkins and Charles S. Steel, members of the Arm of J. P. Morgan Co., were to have been heard to-day, but It was impossible for them to attend. It was then arranged that the hearing should be re sumed at 2 o'clock to-morrow afternoon. After Mr. Perkins and Mr. Steel have tes tified Jacob E. Schiff will be called. ARRESTS FOR CONSPIRACY MANY PERSONS ALLEGED TO II AVE BEEN IMPRISONED IN HAITI.

In the Su preme Court, sitting cn banc to-day, an opinion was handed down declaring that courts of equity have no power to enjoin labor organizations from enforcing boy cotts on corporations. The opinion rendered by Judge Sherwood affirmed the judgment of a lower court which had refused the application of the Marks & Haas Jeans Clothing Company of St. Louis for an in junction to restrain Anthony Watson and other officers of a local Knights of Labor organization and a branch of the United Garment Workers of America in that city from pushing a boycott. Chief Justice Burgess and Justices Brace, Gant and Marshall concurred In th opin ion and Judge Roblson dissented. Judge Valliant, who heard the case originally on the Circuit Court bench, took no part in hearing the appeal. The Supreme Court holds that if the labor unions are not per mitted to tell the story of their wrong's or their supposed wrongs by word of mouth or with pen and print and to endeavor to get other persons to aid them by all peace able means in securing redress of such wrongs, what becomes of free speech?
