Men ana woman's Wages Contracted

The following letter la ely appear, d
in the Boston Transcript; the average
monthly salary of the male tea hers
10 Massachusetts, is Sl02 30; Of female
teacher, $34 80 This discrepancy
is gIester ia Msssicbu etts than ia
any other State OF the Union. Thus,
in Maine, the salaries stand ma 'es,
$37 80; females, % 40. In Pennsy " l.
na-males, 1856 II; females, 1913 80.
Ia Illlnois-nales, $46 SO; females,
1877 rs, and so on. AS tue Buffalo
Courier laely said, the relative value
Of a woman as compared with mau
is LEES ia Massachusetts thsn in any
Other State. This is not BET au:e the
women work fewer hours, or hecause
they have less experieI ce or bihty az
teachers. but becau.e the highest ard
best paid positions in our public
schools are never given 10 women. 1t
seems TO be taken Tor ed thai the
principal even of girls school must
be a man. There is really no reason
for this beyond the vague radlnc nsl
idea that man most bo better suited
for any position Of trust and spons-
bility, especially il there be good
talary attached.

women as street Fighters.

"oadn's Journal: We hear from
st that women, with pokers,
up paving stones and broke
into suitable sizes for the use OF
rioters when they ran short OF mis-
, 90. Women snd young girls des-
erately entreated The men TO con.
,inue the fighting whenever they
Gagged, oheriog them apronfuls OF
fresh II me-, and when eHtreaty failed
the women and girls drove the men
on by savage threats" This shows
that Irish women take a lively inter
est in the politics of their country.
Denied legitimate expression OF their
sentiments, they give vent to these by
violence and inc ting to violence, as is
quite natural.

benefit the young men, Some OF them
will be ashamed to let the physically
weaker girls eclipse them, and will
consequently be spuIred on TO grea' or
