Women and Business.

The month OF June is not quite half
over, yet in ncighboring city five sui
cides of women are reported, directly
traceable to despair at want OF work.
Business of every kind is dull during the
summer months in town; the retail
shops discharge one-third of their sales
women, all kinds of mechanical work.
women are left without employment
economical families turn their seam
stresses and servants adrift while their
houses are closed and they take their
ease in the country. In twoof the eases
the women had been able to earn only
$3.50 per week all winter, out of which
they had to board and clothe themselves.
In all of the cases the women were de-
cent, virtuous creatures, preterrlng
death to dish0norable life.
This statement seems hard enough.
Is it a fact that women have no resource
from slow starvation in this great over
fed country but sudden death? The
statement covers but one side of the case.
In the farming districts throughout the
whole of the United States, from the
peach farms in Delaware to the new
settlements in Arizona, house.servants
can command everywhere fair living
wages, and in districts ad jacent to large
cities their labor is at high premium
during the summer months. From the
rich farms of Pennsylvania and Mary
land there is year after year constant
complaint of the impossibility of secur-
ing ellicien: female servants; and during
the cranberry and whortleberry picking
season in New jersey and the peach gath
ering months in Delaware the whole
of that class betake themselves to the
hills, orchards or great canning houses,
where exceptional prices are paid. while
the mistress of the farmhouse is left to
struggle with her work as she can.
Three or four dollars per week with
board would be given to efficient cooks
in these houses if they could be found,
at the very time when women in the
cities are drowning themselves to keep
from starving.
There seems to be peculiar defect in
woman's business capacity which
binders her from bringing her skill and
energy to bear at the right point. She
has the skill, she has the energy, but she
very seldom knows how to get them in
to the right groove. In the cities you
find hundreds of thousands of women
struggling for work as shop-girls, clerks
hair-dressers, milliners, ETC., etc., and
failing, simply because they stay where
there are thousands of the same trade
in competition. If they would 90 tt

The Richmond Insurance.

The insurance of $4,000 due the heirs of
Charles Richmond, the murderer and suicide,
from the A. o. U. W, is now in the hands OF
the proper committee, who are willing to pay
the amount over; but protest was entered by
relatives of Mrs. Richmond, which has de-
layed the payment. Richmond has mother,
and as his wife is dead and there are no child
dren, It is probable that she will receive the
money. The order of Druids claim that Rich
moDd was in arrears for dues, and by a special
provision of their constitution was,
under the circumstances, not en-
titled TO any insurance. This, the
heirs say is only pretext to avoid payment.
The deceased was only thirteen days behind
in the payment of the dues which were payable
in advance, aud as he had not been suspended
from the lodge still was entitled to all the ben
ehts. II in all probability will take law suit
to settls the matter.
