without equal suffraga If yon ask mo
whether tho millennium will arrive

Women need suffrage to complete their
education, but the Lord help the coun

Get Puhlon's ConMnt.
All advocates of dress reform agree
that it must be mode fashionable before
It can become popular. And it looks
bow as if woman's suffrage was to profit
by the same principle. The open book
at Sherry's is receiving signatures rap
idly, and talks in Fifth avenue drawing
rooms are furthering the cause at a
wonderful rate. At one of these talks
the other afternoon Mrs. C A. Bunkie,
a representative woman of the very best
social life of the city, answered before a
large gathering of women some of the
most common objections to the woman
suffrage question.
Mrs. Runklo took up the points often
raised that voting would unsex women;
that going to the polls would bo a most
disagreeable experience, because of the
rough element to be encountered; that
voting women would quarrel with their
husbands and the rest, which seem al
most too ubsurd to be stated and yet
which are arrayed as valid arguments
against the movement very frequently.
In tho speaker's hands those questions
seemed moro than puerile and were
quickly and conclusively disposed of.
As to tho issue whothor women could
fight if war wero proclaimed, this ap
peared to Mrs. Runkle almost too ridio-
nlnus tiiciinsider. Uy Voting womnti did
lint prnpiwo to enter the biittlelleld any
morn Hum she woulil think nf usurping
men's other indiums duties.
Following Mrs. Huiiklo, Mrs. Mont
gomery, n griiilnntrt from Wcllesley,
Hindu nn address. This sinker claimed
that the time was rlMi fur suffrage; that
theoretically it was right, from a logical
nml philosophical point it was rij;ht,niid
in neeoriliiiici) with thn laws of evolution
it was right, lleing sure the theory Is
right nud having it demonstrated in
practice leaves nothing to do or say.
Woman hits reached a point that calls
fin-this step, and ns she has nut lost her
femininity in her progress, nor has her
(ihyslcal or mental enlllM'r suffered by
Iter pioneering In various fields, it can
hardly 1m possible she will be the loser
by thinking nud acting politic. New

Miss Wlllanl on Wlni-1.
There i one famous American in
England whom the N. C V. dare nut
refuse permission tn ride. That person
I is Miss I' ranees E. Willnrd of Chicago,
known tho wholo country over through
I her connii'tions with the Woman'
. Christian TemH'rniieo union. This lady
is visiting Lady Somerset, and thn Eng-
i lish cycling paper nrn just beginning to

cycling News prints thn following Inter

Thn wonderful mlvaiicn in thn nntidt.
tion of women which tho lust 20 years
hnvo brought nbont makes mo a littlo
' diffident of my ability to prophesy con
, oerningthe futuroof the sex. At tho bo
' ginning of the first of theso decade few
, would have foretold the great extension
i of educational opportunities, tho open
, lug of tho professions, thu multiplication
' of profitable industrial pursuits, all of
; which have combined to place women
; before the world in the attitude of oner
I getic, self supporting members of soci
ety. I Even tho vexed suffrage question has
! uiado groat progress during tho timo
specified, pushing itself slowly and
I steadily forward until in threo states in
' tho Union it has attained mi imprcgna
1 bio position, -whilo in several others it
bun a partial 'efficiency and recognition.
Tho change which I foresee are all
further developments of tho points al
ready gained. I feel asmirod that in tho
near future the co-oix'ration of women
', in municipal and in state affairs will bo
mot only desired, but demanded by men
of puro and worthy citizenship.
Mothers, wives, sisters will no longer
stand as suppliants before tho state leg
islatures, asking that they may become
politically the, equals of inen who pro
fess to treat thorn as superiors, but who
really combine to keep thorn in a state
of perpetual minority.
The true progress of civilization is
from the assumption of privilege to the
recognition of right In our country this
progress already embraces tho whole of
one sex. The laws of moral equilibrium
will speedily place the other sex in an
equal condition, exulting ths dignities
of domestio life and making the home
altar rich with the gifts of true patriot
ism and wise publioxpirit Julia Ward
Howe.
One Woman's Way.
When a woman lives alono in the city,
as a great many clerks in tho department
do, there is one problem abovo all others
with which she is confronted namely,
thut of going about at night. It is not
always that there are fellow clerks in the
same boarding houso who fool inclined
to go to tho theater or go calling at the
lamo timo, though "hen parties, " as tho
exclusively femulo theater expeditions
are facetiously termed, ore a frequent
makeshift. Of courso there are a good
many nice young men who would glad
ly serve as escorts, but they ore not nl
wuys wanted; and sometimes when they
aro wonted they uro not to bo hud
There in ono woman nt least who has
olvod tho problem for herself in a way
that is somewhat novel. A woman alone

'The woman stenographer is as correct,

as capable of hard work and long hours.
About ths best thing that baa happened
for the business offioe in this generation
is the introduction of the woman type

Safety Blepladdera,
An English Invention aims to provido
security ugulust liability tu accident
from the slipping of ladders. The rem
edy in this ensn is tho introduction of n
novel form of shoe suitably attnebed.
It consists of a bracket which can be se
curely bolted to each sidiiof the ladder,
formed at its lower edgo with a lug
through which a hole is bored, a shoo
being loosely jointed to this by means
of a pin passing through it and the lug
connection lieing so free thut the shoe
can en si I y r wing. To thn under side of
the shoe a coiruguted pud of rubber is
fixed. Tho effect of this arrangement
is thut in whatever position thu ludder
is fixed there is always a grip npon the
ground which pievents slipping, the
freedom of tho shoe enabling a bidder to
be placed almost horizontally without
incurring the least liability of slipping.
When desired, shoes can be applied to
the upper ends of a ladder, thus pre
venting any dumogo to the walls or the
ornamental work. New York tian.
A Railroad of Curvet.
The first railroad west of tho Alio
gbonies wus built from Lexington to
Frankfort, Ky., in 1HJI. The road was
laid out with as many curves as possi
ble, the engineers declaring that this
was an advantage. The cars were in
two stories, the lower for women and
children, the upper for men, four per
sons being seated in each compartment.
The cars were at first drawn by mules,
bat after a time a locomotive was made
by a Lexington mechanic. The tender
was a big box for wood, and a hogshead
was provided for wuter which was
drawn in buckets from convenient wells.
In place of a cowcatcher there were two
poles in front fitted with hickory brooms
for sweeping the track. Et. Louis

Whnt Is claimed to be lliemo.it ad van
tngenii process for thesepiiratinn of fine
gold in placers comes from Molilalia. It
is a dry process, designed especially for
localities distant from sufficient wnter
for other methods, the ore or gravel be
ing run through a crusher or steam dri
er, lifter which it is dumM!d into the
hopper of the separator. Dropping from
this, it strikes n powerful blast of air,
which curries it between two set of
slowly revolving copper cylinder coated
with one-sixteenth of an Inch of mer
cury. These cylinder nre placed in two lines
of three each, one above the other, so
that thn dust, driven by thn air blast,
passes between them in a wnveliko line.
Tliooro first strikes a cylinder similar
to tho others, but revolving in an opx
Site direction, which catches the conrw r
gold nnd tho nuggets. Then, passing
between the other cylinders, all the gold
is caught, however fine, and the waste
is carried by the air blust to a conveyor,
which bears it away. The mercury on
tho cylinders is constantly renewed, so
that a fresh surface is always presented,
and it is asserted that thu process bus
been subjected to such various tests,
and so successfully, as to demonstrate
its peculiar adaptability to the class of
work in question. New York Sun,
All Snakes lo Not lllu.
The popular idea that all snakes hiss
is incorrect when anacondas nre in ques
tion, if we mny believe a closo observer
of tlin serpent family. The sound they
make is more liko a growl than a hiss
aud has been well descrilied by a travel
er as a "low, rouring noise." Their pow
ers of deglutition are sufficiently won
derful to make exaggeration unneces
sary, credible witnesses testifying to the
fact thut one has been known to swal
low a horse, while bullocks are not in
frequently attacked also. Few nonscien
tifio renders, by tho way, are aware tha
not only do the jaw hinges of the boa
tribe become dislocuted in the act of
swallowing a largo animal, subsequently
resuming their proper position by means
of tho elastic connecting tendons, but
thut the skull bones separate centrally,,
so the wholo constitutes a sort of quad
