consumption The other Fitch,
Henry S.. was son of United States
Senator Fitch of Indiana. lie was an
officer under sherman, and after the
march to the sea, opened n law Office in
Savannah. He was brilliant, brainy
man, speaking like Choatc and writing
like Junius. The Democracy GLADLY
welcomed this able recruit, and for
awhile he waged mcrciless warfare
upon radicals and pct.baggcrs.
When he made n speech 1t fairly gilt
tered with cpigrams and points. De
scribing Bradley, frcckled faced mt
latto Republican leader, who boosted
that he was born in South Carolina
and educated in Boston, Fitch said:

Of the cavalier, the disgruced appren
tice of the puritanl' Under Andrew
Johnson Fitch was appointed United
States district attorney. He made u
fairly good official, but his drinking
habits and his interest in politics nat
urally interfercd with his usefulness.
The lawyers in Savannah and Atlanta
stuck to Fitch to the last. They knew
him to be big hearted, eloquent,
scholarly man, and his faults they set
down MS his misfortuncs. But there
was no saving him.

Says the correspondent Of the New
York star: Such objections as are ad-
vanced in the Curry case would, if
generally applied, create havoc
throughout the whole list of diplo-
matte appointments. Mr.. Phelps, who
is in England, does not belong to the
established church; General McLanc,
who is in France, is not Catholic; ;
Mr. Lathrop, who Is in Russia, Is not
of the Greek faith; Colonel Derby, who
has gone to China, is unquestionably a
Christian man, while Mr.. Cox, in Tur-
key, not only does not assent to the re-
ligion of that country, but belongs to u
political party which, in its National
declaration of principles, dcnounces
| polygamy and every custom akin to it
in the roundest terms possible, and is
committed to an determination of the
evil under the law. The only test that
will be applied to Mr.. Curry he is
abundantly able to stand, both at the
court to which he is accredited and be
fore the Senate of the United States,
which is to pass upon his appointment.
| He is honest, he is capable he is faith
| full to the Constitution.

In winnemueca, on Thursday last, 8
mulstso, who wanted to get 6 free ride on
the westbound train, resorted to red
psint, q blue blanket and 9 hat decorated
with feathers. He took 8 seat on the
front platform OF the postal car next to the
locomotive. The Piutes pointed him out
to the train men and said he was mo good
Indian" and brakeman put him on the car.
His face was painted In regulation red
saws the w%innemucca Silver State, and .
handkerchief worn under his hat and tied
under his chin. as Indians frequently wear
sucb articles. concealed his hair. The
Indians said he was "no Piute man, no
shoshone man. no Bannock man" Inves-
tie.tion proved him to be an Irish mullato
who came here some time during the Win
ter. and who has been choring around the
saloons for his grub. He was pretty well
disguised, buthis peculiar shutting gate
gave him away, as the Indians knew that
none OF their tribe walked in that way,
andf thoughti 1t was . good joke TO
expose the " niger " as they called him.

The Judicial District Question Set.
tied Probabilities are that NO
Action Will be Taken ON the State
University Proposition Assem-.

pOrti0nment Bill.
CARSON, Feb. 28.-The Judicial District
question was finally settled to-day by the
passage in the Assembly Of the Senate bill
constituting this State as Q single Judicial
District. This measure originated with
the Hon. N. D. Foley, and was reported
by the Committee on Judiciary as . COM
promise upon various bills submitted dur.
ing the present session.
The Senate bill to r~eorganize the State
University and to render that institution
Of some value 70 the State, was indefinitely
postponed to-day. Poujade made q single
handed fight for the bill, and e~loquently
advocated the cause Of technical education.
II was understood In advance that the bill
had no chance Of passage because 1t
had been traded of TO retain the
State Prison at Carson. The two Washoe
Senators, with Parker Of Ormsby.
voted for its indefinite postponement,
and this killed it. These were the only
Senators living in the western part Of the
State who thus voted to kill the bill. The
Senators voting against . postponement
we're Boyle. D~Angberg, Gallagher, Kaiser,
Lyman, Poujade. Smyth Westerfeld and
Williams.
In the Assembly Smith introduced q
bill for the reapportionment of Senators
and Assemblymen in the several counties
Of this State. The bill 10 drawn on the
same principle that governs the formation
OF the United States Senate and House OF
Representatives, one Senator for each
county in the State, and m Assemblyman
for each county. for the simple reason that
every county is entitled to a representa-.
tive in the Lower House and an additional
A~ssemblymAn in proportion to the popu-
lation.

In these DAYS of so-called reform, there
is no reform which would prove so bene-
fetal as systematic effort on the part Of
legislators and others to extend the sphere
of woman's work. AS it is now the maiden
or mother thrown upon her own resources
has the choice of two vocations-school
teaching or sewing. In both of these she
encounters a competition that reduces the
wages to minimum. Other avenues
ought to be open to her. There are many
positions the demands Of which could be
readily met by females, but which custom,
in the South particularly, demands they
shall not occupy. Clerkships, book-keeper's
desks, and many branches OF the lighter
trades seem peculiarly adapted to feminine
qualifications, and yet i'll very few in
stances do we find women employed in
such capacities. Even as school teacher
or seamstress she is subjected, not mfr
quently, to a degrading discrimination.
The male teacher would think himself
outraged if it were proposed to pay him
only such salary as female teacher re-
ceiyes for precisely the same work. In
graded school the instructors often repre-
sent the two sexes. In nine cases out OF
ten the instruction Of beginners-the very
hardest work for the average teacher-ls
set apart for the woman, whilst the man
takes to himself the easier task and grum-
bles at doubles the salary. AS seamstress
the woman makes the clothes for the
tailor, who pays her about half as much
as he would to journeyman, and so 1t
goes. Not only this, but in the education
Of the two sexes glaring discrimination
is shown by the Commonwealth. The girl
who wishes to acquire a knowledge of the
higher branches must pay for instruction
in a private institution after she graduates
from the high school, whilst the boy can
enter upon a collegiate course at state
expense, either at the University or the
Military Institute. We talk a good deal
about southern gallantry and reverence
for the fair sex, but we rather think that
a little more practical aid to deserving
women would better entitle us to their
respect.
