Chaminade. The Winter Club of Bath Beach and Beiison hourst held its first meeting of tho season on Friday, at the residence of Mrs. W. C. Donn, Twenty second avenue and Eightieth street.

This literary club of thirty five women has entered upon its tenth year and will celebrate its tin wedding during the winter. The new president, Mrs. Anae C. Edsall, was installed and made' a few appropriate remarks showing that she fully appreciates the duties devolving upon the office, and complimenting her able predecessors. The papers for the day were intensely interesting, as musical subjects were discussed and illustrated.

Mrs. H. M. L. Allin of Blythebourne compared the French and German schools of music, which was illustrated by a Schumann song; a Mozart sonata was olxyed by Mrs.

Ella D. Griffith. "Charmlnade and Her Art" was treated by Mrs. H. B.

Donn. She spoke of women as composers and the difficulties they were obliged to surmount, as compared with noted men composers, and then gave a sketch of th life of Mile. Cecile Louise Stephanie Chaminade. the noted French composer, which she liberally illustrated by playing from Chaminade's brilliant compositions the "Scarf Dance," "Pas des Amphores," "Callirhoe" and "Searamouche." Examples of her songs were most beautifully rendered by Miss Freda Stenda of Bensonhtirst singing "Rosamonde" and "Madrigal." Mrs. Drnn is in receipt of an autograph letter from Mile.

Chaminade. a graceful epistle in French, as Chaminade dees not speak English. Speaking of herself she says: "I am a passionate lover of nature and live on a small estate near Paris. Flowers, verdure and silence it is only under these conditions that I can work. Thf se works 1 prefer are not always what the public appreciates the most, nevertheless among my most important works my Second Trio is.

according to my Judgment, one of the best. At a first hearing, as a rule. I find my vocal music better understrod and liked by the public than my instrumental work." FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN German Home at Gravesend Beach Haven of Rest for Many Convalescents. On the shores of Gravesend Bay and within an hour's ride on the trolley from Borough Hall is one of the most home like and attractive resting places to be found in this part of tuu country, unis is the German Homo for Recreation fur Women and Children first opened to. guests last December, since which time more than two hundred tired and con valescent women, many of them mother companieu by tneir children, strength and health within its have gained walls durim visits ranging from three to six weeks.

Quiet ncss, good care and nourishing food and nleas I ant surroundings are the only restoratives eir.r ployed and with the bracing sea air they ac i complish the cure. The home is located on Hanvay avenue at I Gravesend Beach and was established by an association ot women connected with the various German Evangelical and Lutheran churches in this borough. The object is to provide a place where women of very limited means may recuperate from overwork or spend tho German Home for Recreation of Women and Children at Gravesend Beach. tedious period of convalescence after illness. The managers aim to have the home self supportingalthough the charge for accommodation is but $3 per week, except when a room is occupied by one person, when the sun; ranges upward to $7.

Each applicant for admission has to show a certificate from a physician stating that she is not suffering from any contagious or infectious disease and also a letter of introduction from a member of the beard of directors of the home. There is no restriction as to nationality, and Americans, Swedes and Germans have alike been accommodated there during the past year. The ground on which the home is located is an extensive plot of 155 feet, directly on the shore ot Gravesend Bay and pposite Sea Gate. It was donated by Mrs. Theodore Drcr of 6 Montague terrace, the president of the home association, in memory of her husband.

Tho eommodl three story homo was erected by the five children of the late Mr. and Mrs. Henry Offerman, in memory of their parents. Expense was not spared and it is an admirably arranged building, equipped with every modern convenience, electric lighting included, and is In the fullest sense of the word a home. The sunny, cheerful look ing parh.r is furnished with a sweet toned piuuo, comiuriaoie urcn ana rocking chairs, palms and rubber plants, a book case filled with standard works and decorative accessories in the form of bric a brac and handsome pictures.

The of this room face the bay. as also those of the spacious dining room across the hall. The sleeping rooms are all simply but comfortably furnished anil an excellent view is obtained from every window. A noticeable feature of the home is the number of beautiful pictures to bo found in the various rooms and halls. Thev are re productions of the works of some of the best known artists of the world and were presented by Mrs.

Dreler. The managers are desirous of keeping the homo open all winter, and already several applications have been received for the holiday a number of teachers and other aril worked folkis having discovered lait year that it was an ideal spot in which to spend the mid year recees, for it is pleasant in this location, both winter and summer. The outlook on the bay is always one of interest, and from the broad, shady piazza that encircles the house on three sides, or the pavilion on the beach, all the ocean liners and the coa3t steamers may be plainly seen on their way to or from the port of New York. Handsome "oak and cedar trees surround the house, and a vegetable garden in front amply supplies the needs of the table In this line. A number of bathing houses have been erected on the beach, and during the summer the guc its took full advantage of the excellent facilities for bathing.

This spring a plot of ground adjacent to tho home wai3 purchased by the managers, and a cottage containing iingle rooms only is in course of erection and will be completed within a short time. The acquiring the land and erection of the building have drawn heavily upon the resources of the home, and If the managers succeed in keeping it opan during the winter on anything like a paying basis it will materially assist them. No part of the success of the home, as pr veil by the testimony of tho: who have enjoyed itn advantages, is due to the tact, the kindliness and friendly supervision of the matron, Mr.i. V. Hollweg.

Later on, regular visiting days will probably be arranged, but at present there i.s no special restriction and friends of the guests or the directors are cordially welcomed. The home is easily reached by tho Fifth avenue and Coney hilnnd line and Third and Fifth avenue lineu; to Ulmer Park.

REFERS TO "CANAL STEALS." Greater Part of the Speech Devoted to a Vigorous Defense of Expansion in the Orient. Cincinnati, October 21 Governor Roosevelt and Senator Foraker delivered addresses the Republican mass meeting here to night. Governor Roosevelt was escorted to Musio Hall from the St. Nicholas Hotel by a larffe procession. Senator i'craker presided, and made a stirring address an hour in length in support of Judge Nash governor and the indorsement of President McKinley.

When Governor Roosevelt took the floor tho cheering was so vehement and protracted that it was some minutes before he could begla speaking. The Governor began his speech by a caustic reply to scene queries in McLean' paper, tile Enquirer, about the "New York Canal Steal." lie then took up the subject of expansion, saying among other things: "Expansion is not only the hand maid of greatness, inn, abovo all. it Is the hand maid of piace. Great civilized powers are, I firmly believe, growing more and more able to live in permanent peace with one another, but no civilb.i il power is, or ever has been, able to permanently keep peace with Bav nge, barbarous, or semi barbarous peoples, because these hitler are not able to so conduct themselves as to render peace possible. '1 he day when universal peace is possible can only come when tho nations of the world have grown civilized.

In some place3 this state of things can come about merely by growth of civilization in the state itself; elsewhere it has to come about by the expansion: of the orderly, pence loving powers. We of ihe i'nitii arc not in the slight iot ilangi ot er.y trouble wkh the Canadians on tiie north, nor v.iih the Mexicnns on the south: ii is not conceivable that a diffl eulty should arise with either that could not be settled by peaceable methods. So in the Pacific, i mosi lirrt'ly believe that we shall be able to won; hand in lmiid with England, vita with Japan, with every civilized power ihat has Interests in that greatest of all oceciis. With every orderly, peace loving civilized tountry, great or small, we can work villi pei feet harmony. But with savagery there can be no peace until we hove firs: incde ev ii.lt our strength.

"The whole history o' our century shows a. diminishing tendency to war between civilized powers, and shows also ihat the existence of a savage or barbarous state inevitably mean sooner or lattr. Ivory expansion of a civilized is a conquest for peace.

Mrs. Higrg ins' Boarding House Terrorized Bradner's Eyeglasses Broken on His Nose. Mary Geary, 27 years old, colored, on Thursday next will have to answer to a charge of murderous assault in the Fourth Precinct police station on DeKalb avenue. The alleged assault was committed on Thursdav last, at i 17 Madison street, which is a fashionable i bearding house kept by Mrs. Lizzie W.

Hlg gins. The complainant is Claude Bradner, a real estate dealer with an office in the St. James Building, Manhattan. The defendant has been employed as cook and on Thursday morning she made things so lively for the guests that they fled out of the dining room in the greatest disorder. She rushed at Mr.

Bradner with two flatirons, each weighing six pounds apiece and exclaimed, "I'll kill you." Before the enraged woman had finished her job she had struck him on the head and face with the irons and smashed most of the crockery. Detective Robinson placed the cook under arrest and she was held in fl.OOO bonds to appear at the hearing next Thursday. Mrs. Higgins was seen yesterday afternoon by an Eagle reporter and said that the woman had been employed by her for throe weeks last Monday. She then told her she would have to leave when her month was up next Monday and on Wednesday paid her the money for a full month.

On the following morning she refused to carry out an order during breakfast ti.ne. "I remonstrated with her," said Mrs. Higgins, "whereupon she called me vile names. Mr. Bradner, two mimen, my little daughter i and myself were the only ones in the dining room.

Braaner starieu sor me woman, out tr I Crttuiacu mill tinu niiu nun iiui i bother with what she said. A few moments later the woman returned to the diningroom with a flat iron in each hand and declaring that she would kill someone. I caught her hoth arms and pushed her back to the Kltcueu aim wncu my uuck. nua uiacu aii again entered through another door and, raising her right arm. she hurled one of the ss the room at Mr.

Bradner who jugeu ne missue ana it stt u. ui his head a glancing blow and shattered the mirror on the wall. Mr. Bradner was dazed and fell to the floor. As he staggered to his feet the maddened woman dealt a vicious blow across his left eye.

smashing his glasses and driving the pieces in the flesh. "With the exception of Mr. Bradner, we all fled from the room terror stricken. He was lying on the lloor and the cook, supposing she had killed him, threatened to kill any of us if we dared to enter the room again. One of the guests ran around the corner and telephoned to the Fourth Precinct police station, and an officer arrived and arrested the woman.

After she had knocked Mr. Bradner to the floor she stood over him and yelled: 'I'll ride your soul to hell, glory, Mr. Bradner verified the story as told by Mrs. Higgins of the aesault, which he said was entirely unprovoked, as he had said nothing to the cook that morning. During the evening before he had given her some change, he said, to buy beer with.

He is still confined to his room from his injuries. His left eye is inflamed and swollen, but fortunately not cut with the glass. His face is badly disfigured by the cuts. There is a bunch on his head where the first iron struck. Dr.

Curry of 493 Classon avenue is attending him. At the DeKalb avenue station the wrman. admitted committing the assault on Mr. Bradner. Toe latter was unable to appear against the woman this week, so the hearing was adjourned until next Thursday.

Thorp are some fifteen regular and table hoarders in the house. Oao of the latter is Henry B. Smith, a member of the Lincoln Club, and for whom the cook refused to make the fast. He was not in the building when the atsault took place. Being unable to furnish hail the womun was taken to the Raymond street jail to await trial.

WOMEN'S CLUB NOTES. The fifth annual convention of the clubs of the state, which will open in Rochester on Tuesday, November 6, and continue un til the following Friday, is the general tonic for consideration among Leal club women at present, although there are indications that the representation from this borough may not be as large as in former years. No particular reason is assigned for this expected decrease other than a desire en the part of the club members here to confine their attention to home affairs, which has always been more or loss of a characteristic of women's club life in this borough. The programme promises to be the best yet presented at a federati convention and Mrs. Cornelius Zabriskie, the Brooklyn representative among the vice presidents, is chairman of the coui mittce which has arranged the schedule for each meeting.

The headquarters the convention will be at Powers' Hotel mil the meetings will be held at Eureka Hall.

Ambassador White Declares a Satisfactory Solution Will Not Be Reached for Some Time. Berlin, October 21 The German public really has been more interested this week in Samoa that in the Transvaal war. The interest taken in these small islands revives at the slightest bit of news of an insignificant change in the situation and the papers have devoted a great amount of space to the subject. Baron Speck von Sternburg, the German member of the Samoan Commission, has recovered from his illness, due to the climate of Apia, though he is still weak. He lunched with the Emperor on Tuesday.

Baron von Eckardstein of the London Embassy was also present. His majesty thoroughly informed himself on the state of the Samoan question. The correspondent here of the Associated Press saw Baron von Sternburg Wednesday and understands that there is no doubt that the negotiations pending will soon lead to a satisfactory settlement. The correspondent also learns from the Foreign Office that the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Count von Buelow, adheres to his determination to secure for Germany the islands or the most valuable part of them. The informant of the correspondent added that in holding out for this the minister is only following the almost unanimously expressed demands of the public.

But, it was added, It must not be understood that he will not sanction, if the present wish is found to be unrealizable, some other solution. Andrew D. White, the United States am bassador, tells the correspondent that the full report of the Joint Commission shows that the present status cf the islands Is untenable for any length of time, though satisfactory at present. The negotiations are only in their initial stage and months will probably be required to bring about a satisfactory solution. The three governments are showing the best spirit and no serious differences have yet arisen.

The solutions mentioned as feasible are tho partition of the islands or the retirement of either Great Britain or Germany with adequate compensation elsewhere. The Ambassador declared that aft statements at variance with the above were not based on authority. He added that the difficulty regarding a partition of the islands was that there was not encugh of them for the three powers, though there is probably enough for two. The Germans want Upolu, where nearly all the German plantations and property are located. Unfortunately, this island is the only valuable part of the group and Great Britain also wants it.

The United States desire Tu tuila, where Pago Pago is located, and Savaii, which is not worth much. The entire German press in greatly excited at the mere mention of the possibility of Germany's retirement lrom Samoa and a number of the influential papers are fairly in a rate, declaring it is a point of honor fcr Germany to hold her ground and not yield up her rights to either Great Britain or the United States. Emperor William's trip to Hamburg Wednesday showed bow popular he is there. During his drive in the evening thr.ugh the illuminated street he was enthusiastically greeted by enormous crowds. His speech at the dinner is regarded as being one of his finest and most powerful efforts and the impression it made can hardly be over estimated.

It will enormously stimulate public sentiment in favor of a big navy, which was doubtless the purpose of the speech, and it is expected that another naval bill will soon be presented in the Reichstag. The full text of the speech shows it to have been more sensational than it seemed from the. first report. His majesty dwelt repeatedly upon the slow progress of the people in grasping important political truths. One of the sentences was "The old, world wide powers go under.

New ones are coming up. Nations appear suddenly on the horizon and the world must enter into competition with them." This evidently refers to Spain and the United States. The German newspapers are still commenting on this speech approvingly and otherwise. In the Emperor's strong condemnation of the excessive splitting up into small political parties, party fanaticism seems to have boon hit hard in a country where, as Prince Bismarck said, everybody wants to be a political party by himself. The correspondent of the Associated Press learns, what quite escaped the public, that the Emperor also made a brief but pithy address to the crew and Miners of the German warship Falke, recently in Samoan waters, in which he praised their devotion to duty arid addrd: "Let us hope that the day may not be distant when Germany will have larger, more powerful ships and more of them to send out on the far seas for the protection of her interests and that all other nations will respect her just wishes and rights." The German Embassy at.

Washington has sent to the Foreign Office here a report of a number of cases of serious interference with German vessels in American ports by custom house cfficials for slight contraventions of the revenue laws. The cases of the Bremen, Calabria and Constania are particularly mentioned. It is admitted that the offenders were leniently treated, hut the report says German shippers and captains ought to know that the regulations are being enforced with greater severity by the United States. It was much remarked at the centenary of the Charlettenburg Technical University how greatly the Empress has aged of late. Her face is quite wrinkled and drawn and shows signs of suffering.

The Emperor looked to be in fair health and it was noticed that the Imperial children were all remarkably grown. The Crown Prince is now a trifle taller than his father, has a budding mustache and manly bearing and resembles his m'ther strikingly. He will give his first fete at the new palace this evening, the guests being his schoolmates and cousins. There will be a big dinner at the new palace tomorrow in honor of the Empress' birthday. The manufacturers of Germany have created a fund of 1,500,000 marks for the furtherance of technical sciences, which sum was presented yesterday at the centenarv of the Technical High School.

The Cologne Gazette publishes the advertisement of a big manufacturer for peoplo to join him in importing Chinamen as servants and factory hards. A young man, giving the names of Henry Green and Elias Miller, claiming to come from B' ston has been arrested for having a die of an American dime made. Tho police found In his room evidence that he is a professional counterfeiter and he was sentenced to a year's imprisonment. It is surmised that he was sent to Germany by accomplices in America.
