WOMAN'S WORK.

The battle of the sexes offered themes for libel
or panegyrics in very early days. 1t is subject
which is rarely viewed through the camera of COM
mon sense. working woman is human ma
chine, practically that is all The ideas respecting
womans work are formed in cast iron molds, from
which the model must not deviate hairs breadth
to meet expected requirements. Women are not
paid what they rightfully earn because they are
not men, and if protest is made against the in
justice or slight increase to the magnificent sum
usually paid is asked for, the request is regarded
with greatest surprise and met with the reply that
for "a woman the pay is ample, and doubtless

than that? And smile plays about your features
as you try to conceive Of a congregation with no
gentle faces in the pews no rustic OF attire IN the
asles, no futter of fans, no bright dashes OF COLOR
no feathers that beckon and toss, no family deli
cious suggestion of perfumery no bright eyes that
smile and twinkle welcome at you.
How long would the stern deacons and elders
turn their pous toes churchward at the call OF the
church bell? What funny little stay at home ex-
cuses would they soon learn to invent! Their
brains would rack with Sunday headaches, and by
and by the church doors would be closed and zeal
would flag. Who ever conceived OF heaven
without the presence of the gentle sex; much less,
who would ever wish to 60 there
A fate more dire than Mrs. Bennett suggests
would indeed be difficult to imagine, and the
clergy would soon settle all doubts as to who were
the apprecative members of the flock. Followers
are very essential to the glory of the leader and
one can only come to realizing sense OF the large
proportion the women form in the congregation
when we try to imagine church without
woman.

BE SOMETHING.

Man was not made to rust out his life. 1t is ex-
pected he ''should act well his part" And is it
not the duty of everyone to assume some part as
actor on the great stage of life? Many think they
can vegetate, as it were, without being anything
in particular. This is great mistake, and one
very common; man has work to perform, which
it is his duty to attend to-he must be somebody.
1t is principle in the creed of the Mohammedans
that everyone should have trade. Is man to
live upon the wealth acquired by his ancestors
Is he to pass through life as an automatonS AS a

long established customs have so deeply embedded
in the minds of mankind. But once having con-
quered her natural timidity and decided upon
course because of having missed the two great
ordinances of divine law, wife and mother, she
should be given the more liberty to choose what
she will do with life that would seem to have
been set apart for some especial charge not dele
gated to the great mass of womanhood.
ORDER is the first law of heaven-and of home.
Home without system is ship without rudder,
and involves the safety and happiness of every
member in it, Woman, where she has proven
successful homekeeper, has had system so en-
grated into her nature as to become part OF her,
Therefore, it is not surprising that as reformer
she should display more systematic management
than others of the same class. Rev. j. A. Adams,
in Advance, says:
Perhaps the most notable feature of woman's
work as reformer is her systematic method.
This is what was least expected. But it is hardly
too much to say that her great temperance move
ment is the best controlled and most systematic
effort at reform that the world has yet seen. And
it may also be said that this and other reform
movements and the great missionary enterprises
are bringing into view more notable class OF wo-
men than has ever before crowned the generations.
The mastery management, the eloquence, earnest
ness, faith and power which they have brought to
their work mark a new era in the history OF reform.

thorough sympathy with their own sex. If this is
true, it may be largely accounted for in the fact
that women consult together too little, and, there
fore, their sympathes tn and for each other have
never reached that high state of perfection, in ex-
tent and cultivation of which we know them to be
capable In the May number of Woman Julia
Ward Howe deals at length, with depth of
thought and womany earnestness which chains
the attention and sympathy of the reader through
out the whole of long article, the subject being
elbow to Extend the Sympathes of Women"
She says:
am one of those who hope that the active in
tervention of women in public affairs may open up
the way to the better understanding of many social
questions We who hold this faith, found it upon
the special gifts and qualities which distinguish
our SEX But, much as we believe in these gifts
and qualities we believe also that they will never
do what they are bound to do for the betterment
of society until the foremost and most favored wo-
men shall entertain large and liberal concern for
their own sex. So long as women occupy them
selves chiefly with their relation to men, so long
will they attain only a second rate ability Sec
ond rate character. They will take their measure
from the minds of those who do not and cannot
know the true extent and nature of their capacity
But if they will seriously consider the interests of
women in the different grades and classes of So
ciety, the generous effort and desire will give
them an enlargement which may seem almost
miraculous.

Miss Lura L. Brown, editor of Arkansas Life,
read paper before the Arkansas Press associa-

earnest plea for good nature and amability in So
ciety reporting: ''rhe society reporter must adj

cannot put sunshine and rose leaves and perfume
into his society column, he had better put his So

nature to write from an optimistic standpoint.
There is sunny side to every event; there are
always pretty points and pleasing incidents patent

in another; if an actor is deficient in grace, he
may possess fine ability in other lines. Touch up

The Debt Raised.

Yesterday was a red letter day for
the Willamette University. In its
interest Rev. G. G. Stratton preached
at the M. E. church both morning
and evening and following each
service the request was made for
those who felt able to assist the Uni
versity in cancelling the debt to
speak out for such amounts as they
would subscribe. The good fortune
of the most hopeful attended the
subscriptions and the sum of the in
debtedness ($2,5OO) which has for
several years hung over this favorite
institution was raised. Now the
University is free from debt and can
continue in its good work under
more favorable auspices.

THE VALLEY TO THE SEA.
Notes and Comment Concerning the
Astoria andISOuth Coast R. R.

Salem is already in correspond
ence with the Astoria folks upon the
matter involved, and the result of
this correspondence so far reveals the
fact that Salem is ready for confer
ence with the Astorians regarding
the formation ofa company at as ear
ly a day as possible. The Astoria pro-
jectors signify their willingness to
cooperate with the people of the
valley in the immediate construc-
tion of the line, and are no less en-
thusiastic over the subject than are
the valley residents. Present nego-
tiations depend somewhat upon the
extension of the Willamette Valley
and Coast Railway (the o. P. r. r.,
which is by some said to be part of
the Chicago and Northwestern sys-
tenn, and by some denied. But the
Astoria Transcript notices that those
who do the denying do so upon the
"I do not think" basis. Because

murder of John Summerville of
Seattle, about December 8, 1887,
Mrs. Elder being at that time the
wife of John Summerville. This
has an appearance, from all that can
he learned, of being one of the cold
pst blooded murders that ever Occurr-
cd in the Pacific northwest. Sheriff
BowIes had an inkling of this some
weeks ago, and has followed the
matter up until it looks as though
the proper persons were secured.
The history of the case is as fol-
lows: Early in December a man
giving the name of John Summer
Vile and his wife rented a cottage in
Seattle and began housekeeping.
He was a carpenter and soon found
employment. All went well for a
short time, but their home was in a
constant state of turmoil. This
state of affairs eliminated Friday
December 9, when the wife ran tc,

The Construction of the Line at an
Early Day Assured.

Immediately following its incor-
poratiOn, the books of the Salem
Street Railway Co. were opened for
subscription of stock and in few
hours Saturday afternoon $1,000 of
the required amount was taken. 1t
is only a matter of a very few days
when the full sum of $50, 600 will be
taken. The work of construction
can proceed almost at once. Mr..
Searle, who recently looked over
the ground with view to receiving
the contract, says with an adequate
force of men he can in ten days
complete the line from Commercial
street to the Capitol. This he says
can be built and equipped for 5000.
Salem is sure to have a street
railway in operation by the first of
The year. Her business men are
united on the enterprise and are de-
termined to push the line on to
completion and from time to tim,
see that such extensions are m ,de
as are needed.
