At the meeting of the Philadelphia Section of the National Council of Jewish Women yesterday afternoon, In the room of Hie Young Men's Hebrew Association. 933 North Broad street, Mrs. Charles Hoffman presided. Reports from different sections and communications from the headquarters of the CoudcI1 in Chicago were read. The Council at present, two years after its organization, comprises thirty-three sections, having 2.642 members, and 73 circles, having 1,581 mem Iters.

The practical work of the organization consists of establishing and carrying on missions, mission schools, industrial schools, night schools, kindergartens, libraries, employment bureaus, working girls' clubs and workrooms for unskilled women In those parts of the country where the Jewish people are In a poverty-stricken condition. There is a movement on foot among the members of the Philadelphia section to bring bout the appointment of women on the Sunday school boards, and the following congregations have altered their constitutions so that women might serve upon their boards: Beth Israel, Adath Jeslmrun. Rodef Shalom and Miekve Israel. Yesterday afternoon, however, a communication was received from the Keneseth Israel to the effect that inasmuch us the by-laws of their church stated that none but trustees of the church should be members of the Sunday school board, and since tliey did not wish to amend the by-laws they would be compelled to refuse the request of the National Council. The mebmers of the section have not given up hope aud express the opinion that before long they will carry their point.

Dr. Rachel S. Skidelsky, president of the Southern Branch of the Women's Health Protective Association, was present and made a few remarks In reference to her work, ending by Inviting any of those present to interest themselves in the work of keeping the city clean. The annual election was then held and the result was the election of Miss La urn Mordecal, president; Mrs. Henry Halm, vice president; Miss Gertrude Berg, secretary, and Mrs.

K. Uubel, treasurer. The foliowiug were elected to the Board of Directors: Mrs. H. Berkowltz, Miss S.

WOULD NOT SEW ON BUTTONS Husband and Wife Quarrel Over Household Duties and Get Into Court, William C. Clark is a colored man who conducts a barber shop" at 1645 Lombard street. Yesterday afternoon he appeared in the witnes stand before Magistrate Jermon at the City Hall while his wife was in the prisoner's box and told about the trouble. He claimed that his wife neglected to sew the buttons on his shirt and when he remonstrated with her and urged her to attend to her wifely duties, she refused to cook bis men la and deserted his home.

She subsequently returned and hostilities were renewed. The wife, he said, was armed with a knife, with which she cut a long gasb in her husband's arm. Mrs. Clark admitted the cutting, but tried to justify it on the ground that her husband failed to support her and failed to pay his rent. She talked about many things, hut was a little chary of coming to the facts about the knife, and while she was still talking the Magistrate remarked "Six hundred dollars to answer at court," and she was led away.
