The executive committee will hold a meeting in the morning, at State headquarters, and in the afternoon the entire committee will meet at the Board of Trade auditorium, which was yesterday afternoon engaged for that purpose. It is expected that a date and place will be fixed for the next State convention, and from what is already talked of it is likely that an early date in The Black Chiffon Cape Is the Thing Just Now THE AUTHORS OP THE HOUR.

rear splendid children It. mast follow that she has the right husband and home for such children, for surely no woman wishes for children when her home is unhappy, when there Is a drunken husband or a rather who does not provide money for little clothes and shoes. Unfortunately the number of unhappy marriages is great, and 1t is these women tied to unworthy men who need laws w-hlch protect them and conditions which allow them to earn a fair living and support their children, which, alas, they very often have t6 do. Then take the vast army. of single women not single out of perversity, as statisticians would have us believe, but single because the right man has not come along, and they will not marry the wrong one, or else women who are as honest and good as the day and yet are too quiet and plain perhaps to attract the opposite sex.

1 Surely they have their own mission in life, which most of them are per-j forming nobly, and they need the samei rights as self supporting men since they are compelled to labor in the! same way. There Is nothing more true than that woman's original mission was to bs a happy wife and mother, but our present customs and our present day men are making this impossible to many; splendid women. When a woman can) propose and thus select the man shei respects above all others, then she qan' be blamed for staying single. But aaj things are men had better cease their immemorial cry and study wherein they; are to blame, and the happily married; wives and mothers had better look at both sides of the question. i CLUB STARTS OFF WITH 75 MEMBERS Iff xfc- A'thtJr -Blf' i Society Us 1 Lis MUST BE IN BED AT BECOMING HOUR "Not Later Than 11.30 P.

M. Orders Man- ager Selbach All the Senators Will Be Quartered at the Fox Hotel, and Will Be Known as the "Happy Family" Newashe Will Probably Coyer Third Base In the Absence of Carr. This was the official reporting day for the Senators. Of course, several men have been working out daily since last week, but to-day the players from distant points began to register at the Fot hotel. Believing that quartering the Senators all beneath one roof is favorable to the promotion of good fellowship, Manager Selbach has ordered all the men to take up their berths at the Fox hotel.

All the Senators will get their feet under the table in the Fox dining room as sociable messmates. Manager Selbach 's rules and regulations have already been issued. He is very strict in one particular all must be tucked in at a seemly hour. This hour is 11.30 p. m.

while at home and 11 p. m. while traveling. The hitting of the high places in the wee sma' hours has been tabooed by Manager Selbach. "What are the rest of my rulest" The manager laughed.

"Well, there aren't very many. I'll ask them to play baseball on the field with the accent on the 'baseball'- and to conduct themselves as gentlemen while not on the field." It is now possible that Newashe, one of the Big Chief members of the Squad will be shifted about in order to play third base. This or some similar change is made necessary by the fact that Carr is not expected to join the team until June. Newashe is equally proficient at any infield position. In the event of his being retained temporarily at the third corner he would, after Carr's arrival, be kept as a utility man.

The fans that attend the exhibition games will see several former Harrisburg players in the role of manager. Dick Nallin is the big boss of the team which comes to the city April 25, and Mike O'Neill, another outfielder, is manager of the El-mira New York State League team. The latter club will play two games, April 28-29. Duckpin Games. The first game in the duckpin tournament at the Casino alleys was rolled last evening.

The Casino team won from the Tool department team ot the Elliott-Fisher typewriter works by 82 pin. Four teams are in the tournament, the Red Ravens and the All-Collegians being the other representatives. At Mechanicsburg on Monday night the Casino team won by a margin of eleven pins.

Quigley was a freight brakeraan on the same road, and so well did he serve that he was promoted to be a freight conductor in 1876, but he kept on climbing and winning his way into the good graces of his superiors to that in 1884 he was made a passenger conductor, and at that time Superintendent Gucker made the remark. As a matter of fact he was twenty-eight, but even then he was the youngest con- ductor on the road, which he has been serving for thirty-eight years. He is known to all the traveling public be-i tween Harrisburg and Kenovo and termediate stations, and everybody has the kindly word for him. AUGUSTUS Cixteen years ago Au-f F. gustus y.

Wistful Waddell and the Rules of His Matrimonial League.

This will be the busiest summer in the history of George Edward Waddell. the famous pitcher of the St. Louis Browns. He will be working in two leagues the American and the matrimonial, under two managers and two sets of rules. One of these sets of rules has already been laid down by President Hedges, of the Browns.

The other will be laid down by Miss Madge Maguire, who has become Mrs. Waddell. If "Rube" lives up to the Hedges stipulations he will be entitled to a $1,000 bonus at the end of the baseball season next fall; and if he sticks to the rules of the matrimonial league ne win guarantee minseil a happy home. This baseball sum of bonus, as well as this matrimonial summum bonunl, is contingent on one thing only that "Rube" hold on tight to the water wagon, and ride it as gracefully hereafter as he has been dping ever since March 1, when he went into training with the Browns. Mrs.

Waddell has already formulated the rules, by which he must abide when Reuben comes to town: First He must not drink, except out of the water barrel on the grounds. Secoud Ho must steal "home" every day after the game in time for supper. Third If he is "caught stealing" away from home to a saloon, she will act as "seout' and go atter him. xourtn one is to be manager, um pire and coach. He must be content with pitching.

iitth However "wild" his work may be, he will not get into serious trouble unless he attempts to pull down a high ball. Sixth She will attend every game when he is in St. Louis, and will ac company him around the circuit if his other manager will permit. Spvpnth ISllA will ocoiof him in every way and make every "sacrifice" to keep him in the straight and narrow. Lighth If he disobeys her, he will be sent to the bench.
