The majority, if not all, Of the ONO
,.iarle IN the washington Departments
have taken the thirty days leave Of alb
sence which the law gives each clerk an
pualIv. That being the case, it is diff
c.uIt to see what excuse they can have to
90 home to vote. For years it has been

stands in the way. Even Chandler, the
Secretary Of the Navy, says ne can I
grant anv leaves Of absence where clerks
have already had their vacation Of thirty
DAYS. He was kind enough to say, now

cuse for absence. VIII the Ohio clerks
act ON this hint: II is we'll

ever. that very few viii trouble the doc

in the departments who have more than
enough ahead to pay a weeks board. The
great majority Of them are constantly IN
debt. When the rules were not 50 strict

political purposes. They feel secure now,
and when the political agent demands
their presence at home they act and speak
as independently as if they were doing
the government kindness by remaining
in its service. If the Ohio clerks 90 home
this year the chances are their expenses
will be paid. The situation has changed
from what it was in previous years.

Women's Rights in Austria.
Franzenbad Cor. Courier-J Journal.


With the working classes here the women
seem to have equal privileges with the men,
and in many instances monopolize what in
America would be considered their rights.
Women gardeners, women water-carriers,
women porters, bearing on their backs the
weightiest loads, and every day may be seen
carts, heavily laden with bottles of the min
eral waters for expectation, drawn by six
or eight women. But the most novel sight
are the women lamp-ighters, who carry
their heavy ladders slung over their shout
ders with ease, if not elegance, which they
mount with agility, and dispatch their work
quickly and as sobberly as If theirs was the
most responsible of all positions. Could the
most jealous advocate for ''womens rights"
demand more? One particular salutation
is universal here, with all interiors, which
sounds startingly to unaccustomed ears
like ''s'cat;" but which one soon under
stands is short way of expressing "Ich
kusztdis hand" The outdoor laboring wo-
zen usually go barefoot, with conveniently
short skirts, which quite clear the ankles.
Their only Eead-covering IS most unbecom-
ing large black silk handkerchief, one corner
flowing down their backs with two ends tied
tightly across the forehead and left sticking
up like horns. This, too, is the regulation
Lesd-dress of the peasantry. Not long since
funeral from the country passed through

band playing the "Dead March" A priest

Immediately behind the hearse; then came
forty or Fifty men neatly dressed in black
al bare-headed, repeating simultaneously
responses to the chanting of the priest, while
some distance off followed a large bard Of
women, also in black, wearing this same sa-
tanical-looking head-coverinS and singing
the CccUrrifliest of dirges.
