CRIMES AGAINST WoMEN.-It cannot
have escaped even the most casual atten-
ton that sexual crimes are having a won
deIlul Increase In this country; IL not that in
fact, then they are certainly more faithfully
reported than ever before The Woman-s
Journal makes a horrible weekly summary
of them, with view TO impress the public
with the fact OF woman s wrongs. 1--WE are
not writing" ii says, "to blame men unduly
as Darwin says, they act after their kind; we
are only intent on showing the fallacy of the
necessity that women should have increased
power, social, civil, legal. political and &C.
clesiasucal, In order TO protect them ves.'
A woman correspondent of the same paper
believing that the half is not told,
gives these instances OF the many unpub-
lshed crimes OF this character a lovely
young girl was stunned and derided at
school, because she was an illegimate child.
So she went out to service In a family where
she hoped TO be more sheltered. The mis-
tress OF the house used TO leave this beautiful
child OF IL alone for days together with her
unprinctpled husband, and the consequence
was that she was led astrsy by him and gave
birth to a daughter before she was Is. The
payment OF $500 settled the difficulty
for him. Another young girl OF the same
age, going to boarding school, was outraged
in a sleeping car; handkerchief wet with
chloroform being placed over her mouth aud
face by the man who had a berth in the same
compartment. She was too much frightened
and mortified to tell OF IL until a month had
elasped. Then, 10 me, rather than TO her
mother. II was decided TO let the fearful
crime go unmentioned, as IL could not be
avenged. Query: Should there not be an inn
mediate demand for different arrangement
in sleeping cars?
