Women Who SWING

Philadslphia Times.
sis the art ever likely to be useful
to ladies'
"To show that the art of swimming
js often useful, even to women, can
recall two or three instances in the
career OF certain pupils of ours that
will prove very interesting. One OF
our pupils was daughter of ex Sec
rotary of the Navy, Borie. She WAS
an expert swimmer and perfectly
fearless. One day, in the summer
of 1871, when she was bathing on
the beach at Cape May, two children
that belonged to party near her
we're seized by receding wave and
carried out beyoLd their depth.
Neither could swim, and the ladies
who we're with them were equally
helpless. Taking in the situation at
a glance, Miss Borie swan out into
the swelling surf and in q moment
had resculd the drowning children.
"Another young lady, also a pupil
of ours, q Miss Laury' whose father
10 coal dealer at Lombard street
wharf, saved minister and another
gentlemen at watering place on
Long Island, after psrilous swim.
The men could not swim, and, having
been seized by the undertow, were
drawn out into deep wster, where
they were helpless. Miss Laury swan
to them, and by her noble aid they
got safely to shore. What would
have been their feelings at that mo-
ment if she had not knswn how to
swim! Still. another pupil of ours
has distinguished hefselt by saving
life. This was Miss Fannie Reigel,
the daughter Of dry goods man.
One day when she was riding near
Hsmmellsburg. a little village on
the delaware, she saw some children
playing In boat on a large mill
dam. Suddenly, to her horror, the
boat upset and three little children
were struggling in the water. With.
out the loss of second she sprang
from her carriage, and only stopping
to throw off her bonnet end shawl,
plunged into the pond. She was
enabled, fortunately, to save three
lives, whereas, had she not been a
swimmer, che would have the horri.
BILE memory all her life of the death
struggles OF the little innocents.
II can cite these instances to show
that an opportunity tor doing good
often occurs to woman who can
swim. There is no exercise more
graceful, more easy, more pleasant,
more health giving to the human
frame. 1t expands the chest, rounds
the arms, it developes the muscles
of the trunk, gives vigor To the loin
and strengthens and fills out the
lower limbs. 1t confers presence of
mind and confidence in ones self,
aud prepares women as we'll rs men
to sustain themselves and to hel lip
others in form of danger to which
the contingen les of travel must
| often expose u.s."

The number of women students
in the United States 10 increasing,
and the same may be said of the fs-
male students of England. Before
many years have gone by the girls
and young women of both this
country and Great Britain will enjoy
as many advantages for education as
young men enjoy. What the result
will be IN sending women into the
learned profession it is difficult to
predict with any degree ofexsctitude.
1t is certain, however, that these pro-
fessions will be partly feplsnisted
from the lists of scientifically educat-
ed women. There are men who OBJ
ject to any such growth as this, who
claim that men ought to have q
monopoly of the learned Professions.
But there 10 an ON sweeping tide of
progress that carries all before it, and
that will surely accomplish more tor
the women of the nineteenth century
than we have yet dreamed. 1t may
be maintained that facts do not war.
rant any such inference; but thig we
dispute. The facts all taken together
60 to show that our young women
possess greater facilities than ever
for being educated, and that they
will sooner or later, make their pow
er felt in the law, the ministry and
the doctors office.

WHAT RECENT YEARS HAVE DE-
yELOPED.


John Swinton's Paper says: We have
seen strange sights within recent years.
In our land Of plenty we have seen
millions of people passing into the Val
ley Of Hardscrabble.
In our busy land of free-workers we
see wages forever tending to the level OF
slavery.
In our land that offers welcome to all
mankind, we see the growth of a horde
of paupers, beggars and tramps.
In our land, where all men are born
equal, we see the upspringing OF a ruling
class of millionaires.
In our land of free soil we see the
peoples heritage falling into the hands
of rackrenting landlords.
Under our Constitution, that prohib-
its special privileges. we see privileged
corporations all over the land.
In our Congress and our Legislatures,
established as agencies of popular power,
we see capital holding the reins and
running the machine.
All around, and in all quarters. we see
the invasions of enemies who become
more relentless with each successive con-
quest, who strengthen their bulwarks
with every passing year, who are en-
trenched before all the s%trongholds that
the people built for their W defense,
and who will never leave the ground, or
any part of it, till they are driven off by
forces stronger than their own.
All these features of American life can
be brought under one head, into a single
question-that Of a proper use of our
country's resources, the proper distribu.
tion of our public products, the proper
enforcement of popular rights. The de-
tails will settle themselves easily enough
when once the question is earnestly
taken up.
1t is the question before the American
people, which cannot be shirked. As
has already been pointed out, the Ameri-
can people have always had some great
workinhand, fromthe old days of pioneer
ing and r~evolutionism to the later times of
abolitionism and reconstruction. They
worked their way through them all.
When they take hold Of the new ques-
tion, they will work their way through
that somehow or other.
1t is about time to begin. Every year
of delay will be harder and more dan
gerous.

ARE THEY MARRIED:

The Delaware Circuit Court of Indiana
is now investigating a curious matrimo-
NAL case, in which Seth NJ. Written is
the defendant. Mr.. Written is a lawyer
of Union City, an apostle of temperance.
and a reformer. He is small, weakly,
has thin, straight hair, and wears glasses.
Some time last Spring MI. Written, who
is a widower, fell in love with Maud s.
Macarthur, a reputable young lady, who
made her home at the Maddy House.
Owing to some unpleasant comment, they
both moved to the house of a private
family. The family became dissatisfied,
and demanded to know the relations ex-
listing between them, when Mr.. Written
produced a written agreement, mutually
signed but unwitnessed, agreeing each in
the sight of God and the world to take
each other as lawful husband and wife,
to have and to hold, ETC., ''until death
or some competent legal authority" should
them part. Both parties claim that they
were legally married by that unwitnessed
agreement.
At the Fall term of court, however,
Written was indicted and arrested, and
gave bail for his appearance, and the case
was called in open court on Monday.
Mr.. Whitten's defence is that the con-
tract was a legal marriage. and cites as
his proof thereof section $3.50 of the
Revised Statutes, which says: mo
marriage shall be void or voidable for the
want of license or other formality re-
quired by law if either party thereto
believe it a legal marriage at the time"
The best legal talent is divided as to the
merits of tho case, and the prosecution
holds that the section quoted to merely
refers to instances where an attempt has
been made to comply with the manda-
tory statute as to legal forms and cere-
mony, but by mistake or design Of one
party some one or more of these forms
has been omitted, and that it is for the
protection of the innocent party in such
cases.
Mr.. Written was at one time offered
immunity from prosecution if he would
call a preacher and be welded according
to the law and the custom, but he stub
bornly refused, and persists in being
tried, claiming a laudable desire to
establish a precedent in the hope that
the promise to marry may one day be
made by law a marriage in reality.
