What tho Recent Census Shows as to
Her Conquest of Eields of Occupa
tion Onco Monopolized by Man.
In l')00, according to tho census nt
mat year, t.ioie were 2,2S5,!22 peisons
In the United States engaged In gainful
occupation. That was over two-flfth3
of the total population of the country,
or more than half the population over
trti years of age.
Of the number given abop 5,319,912
weie females. Of the total female pop
ulation of the country, 14.3 per cent, is
employed In. remunpiatlvo occupations,
or 1S.R per cent, of all females over ten
years of age.
The fields of activity invaded by
women are almost as numerous as
those occupied by men. In 1900 neatly
1,000,000 women wero classed as en
gaged in ?gi cultural pursuits and pro
fessional seruce; l,3ir,890 were In me
I'hanical nnd manufacturing pursuits;
half a million in trade and transporta-
utm, ami ai.'uut .-.uuiuuu in domestic
ttl ice.
Trades Involved.
There are women farmers, planters,
overseers, gcrden and nursery laborers,
florists, fruit growers, milk dealers,
wood choppers, "lumbermen" and
"raftsmen." There are women
"diauffbtsmen," aichltects, engineers,
nnd sureyors, electricians, chemists,
journalist.", phys'cians, surge'or.i, vet
erinaiy suii;poiis, teachers and protes
ts in ccllfges. Theie ara icinen
bankers, slock brokers, boot keepers,
clerks, copjists, mallcarriers and com
merelal ti.ivelers. There aie women
hack cricrs, teamsters, "fimcn" in
livery stm 'cs, hostlers, huckscr rs f.p.1
peJJicis-. There are worn" 1 meichar.ls,
pa:crs shippers and porteis. There
aio women steamfitters an J roofers,.
Ther.- are women brick and tile rm.hcis,
oil well enirloycs, marble anl stone cut
ters, caniiage makers and potters.
Th-N are women miners, "f abt-rnti :i"
and "cpiarrymen." There arc women
millets, meat and fruit packers, can
ncrs and sugar makevs. There are
wonien blacksmiths, iron and steel
woikers, iiMchinists, stote and grate
nakors. wheelwrights and wire work
ers. There ate thousands of women
making and repairing shoes. Hundieds
are tanr.rrs and harness and saddle
makcis There are wonien in the lum
ber trade, in the furniture and piano
factories, in watch factories, in engrav
ing establishments, in cotton, silk and
woolen mills. Theie are women engln
eeis and firemen, and women in hun
dieds of ether occupations.
Hoinekeeping Declining.
Those of cur readers Intel ested In the
domestic ptoblem will see one reason
or tncii tiouble in the fact that wheie
as in 1690 42.6 per cent, of women em
ployed in gan.ful occupations weie en
gaged in ir'rsonal and domestic service,
in 1909 the number had fallen to 39.4
prr cent. Factoiies, stoies, offices,
shops, studios, even the forests and the
rrdnes had been invaded by these com
petitors for men's places at lower wages
than the latter had been lecelving.
Whether this invasion has been a
blett'Ing or a curse to both the women
und the men is a problem over which
many aie now pondering. Its immo
dlal.j effects, so tar as the men aie con
cerned, have been the lowering of
wages and the displacement of many
fiom occupations to which they had
been trained. That It has also had per
nicious effects upon the manners, if not
upon the characters, of many of the
women of the country is Indisputable.
Thete are some who profess to be In
love with tho new mannei.s of the new
time. But many would willingly dis
pense with them In favor of the modest
girliihness and the gentler womanliness
of mi earlier day. Of this wo may be
Bttre; we are in no danger at piesent
of too much femininity In the life of
our time. Femininity cannot well sur
vive constant contact with many or the
occupations named above.
Two hundred and twenty-five of the
select voices of this valley made thp
Lyceum ting with sueh "harmony of
sweet sound" last night, ns few, If nny',
Scrnutoii audiences ever had the pleas
tup of heailng equalled. Tho occasion
was the benefit conceit which tho
Scianton United Choial society gave
for the double purpose of defraying the
huge expense Incidental to their com
ing trip to Biooklyn and also to ac
custom the slngeis to tendering the
prize songs befoie an audience.
Tho Scranton United Choral society
was oiganlzed to enter tho Arlons' great
musical contest, which Is lo bo held
November US and 29, In the F01 ty-sev-enth
Regiment armory, Biooklyn. It
Is under the direction of John T. Wnt
klns, and If It Is destined to accomplish
no more than Its triumph of last night,
both Mr. Wntklns and the society will
have every reason to feel fully icpald
for their efforts.
The opening number was Haydn's
familiar chorus, "Tho Heavens are
Telling," rendered by Mrs, Brundage,
W. D. Evans, P. II. Warren and the
united choir. The Schubert Quaitctte,
consisting of Thomas Abrams, J. T.
Watklns, AV. M. Bunnell and J. W.
Jones, next rendered a pait song by
Buck, entitled "When tho Cotn Is Wav
ing." They acknowledged an encore
with the ballad, "They Kissed."
Humbert's musical classic, entitled,
"Cheei fulness," was so rendered by
Mrs. Brundage and Miss Via Jones, ns
to leave nothing to be wished for. Miss
Anna Scanlon next sang Buck's "Storm
and Sunshine." Miss Scanlon has a
sweet, sympathetic, contralto -olee,
highly suitable for the lights and
shades of such a composition ns the one
she Interpreted so well last evening.
Competitive Number.
Jext came the first of the compet
itive songs. It was Buck's, "The Spiing
is Come," for which a prize of $500 Is to
bo glen. Tho male chorus sang It
with a spit It and abandon, which so
captivated the audience that they com
pelled the chorus to repeat the lefraln.
Miss Martha Matthews. Mr. Bunnell
ann Mr. Pilling next sang one of the
most beautiful of Italian melodies, Ni
cola's "Ti Prcgo, O Padre." Thy
were compelled to repeat the cntlio
song.
Fanlng's "Dajbieak," by the United
choir opened the second part of the
