Something About Its Scope and Principles The Officers Elected-What It Proposes to do. The Woman's club became a reality yesterday, and now stands witha membership of seventy six and a corps of provisional officers. The vlub stands espoused to the general principles designated in the report of the committee on plans, which was printed in yesterday's World Herald. At least 100 women were in attendance, and the discussion of the work that a club might do and of the duties which it might assume was remarkably unrestrained and general. The business was transacted with a dispatch that might only have been expected from persons experienced in such work, and the gathering of women was exceedingly democratic, including professional women, society women, working women, women with some celebration as students and women who might be considered purely domestic. The first effot of the club will be to promote a general good fellowship it is felt that after that is accomplished a reasonable development in soy and many directions will be forgone conclusion. The club year will be from the third week in September to the first week in June, and therefore the officers eleted yesterday are intended only to fill on the brief remainder of this year.
