Thursday evening The large audi ence was a tribute not only to the dis tinguished speakers present, but to the intilligence of this community. Recitations were given by Misses Myra Eves and Mary Rich, followed by T. B. Terry's lecture, "The Wife's Share." This lecture had a peculiar significance. I hat in these later days of the 19th century mere exists a necessity ot ex plaining to intelligent men the wife s share in a life partnership. We can only briefly refer to the abi ity of the speaker (being on the side of right) he was master of the situation. His matrimonial platform if adher ed to would remove the unwarranted authority assumed in many families, and insure the proper adjustment of financial affairs that have embittered the lives of so many otherwise happy women. After some remarks by Hon. John A. Woodward, the chairman an nounced the adjournment of these very interesting sessions. prances M.
