The club is likewise the guiding spirit of the Northeastern Fed eration of Colored Women's clubs. Mrs. Ruffin has been president of the Woman's Era club since the organ ization was formed. She was born in Boston, and when ehe was sixteen years A SO.OO. SI .35. of age, married George L. Ruffin, who. was one of the handsomest and ablest colored men in Boston. He was a grad uate of the Harvard Law school, served several terms in the city council, two terms in the legislature, and when Gen eral Benjamin F. Butler was Governor he appointed Mr. Ruffin to a judgeship in the municipal court in Charlestown, Boston, giving him the distinction of being the first colored man to occupy a position on the bench north of Mason and Dixon's line. At the presentation of a Bet of colore to a company of the Fifth-first Massa chusetts colored volunteers in 1863, Mrs. Ruffin was the first person to publicly recite "The Black Regiment," a famous war-time poem. She was one of the first workers in the Associated Charitiea of Boston, which did a far-reaching work in the negro exodus of 18'9. For a number of years she has been a mem ber of the Moral Education society, and has also been strongly identified with the MasssachuBette Woman Suffrage association. She is a member of the New England Women's Press associ ation, being editor of the Woman's Era, published in the interests of the colored women of America, and is the founder of the Association for the Promotion of Child Training in the South, the aim of which is to aid in kindergarten work in southern cities. Mrs. Ruffin was recently elected an alternate delegate to the Milwaukee convention by the Woman's Press asso ciation and a delegate by the Massa chusetts Federation of Women's clubs, but both of these places she declined in order to be a delegate of the Woman's Era club. Mrs. Florida Ruffin Ridley, a daugh ter of Mrs. Ruffin, is one of the promi nent members of the Woman's Era club. She is a graduate of the grammar, high and normal echoolB of Boston, and was the second colored woman to teach in the public schools of that city. She was one of the founders and the first secretary of the Woman's Era club, and did much to aid her mother in mak ing the first convention of colored wo men of the country the success it was. Mrs. Ruffin is described as a woman of fine personality. Her complexion is very light and clear, and she has a deep color in her cheeks. Her hair, which is prematurely white, is worn in a pompa dour. She dresses with taste and her presence is stately. Tecumseh Sprosis right royally enter tained their husbands and friends at the residence of Mrs. J. A. Dillon, one of the charter members of the club, on Wednesday evening, June 13th, the event being the greatest social function Tecumseh has witnessed for many moons. The beautiful lawn was artis tically lighted and decorated with tri colored Japanese lanterns. At the door the guests were directed by Helen Daviee, and each one in turn was in troduced to the officers of the club, who received in the front parlor.
