BERLIN, March SIR. M.-The Emperor
Is not now able to recognize even the
Empress, and is gradually sinking. An
immense but silent crowd is standing
near the palace, notwithstanding the fact
that cold rain Is falling. The palace is
guarded by force Of cavalry. Business
in the town is virtually suspended and
the theatres are closed.
From 8 O'Clock this morning until about
2 this afternoon the Emperor's condition
slightly improved. He appeared to ButTer
less pain and made feeble attempt TO raj
ly from his exhausted state. He is still
very much exhausted, however, and at 2
O'Clock was slowly weakening. He is at
tended by all his physiCians, who are
anxiously watching Tor the slightest
change in ths royal patients condition.

swoon at 5 O'Clock and remained uuCon-
scious until 6. He afterwards fell into
quist sleep, which lasted till Z. Wine and
other liquid nourishment are administer
ed 10 him occasionally.
The announcement OF the Emperor's
impending dissolution fell on the nation
with all the shock OF an unexpected
calamity. For weeks he had been report
ed In unusual health, working fourteen
hours 6 day, rising OF Z O'Clock every
morning and not retiring until IL. On
Monday II was given cut that his Majesty
was suffering from slight cold, but that
1t was accompanied by no alarming symp-
toms. Tuesday he vas utill confined to
bed and unable to receive the special en-
voy who was going to represent Germany
at tho silver wedding OF the Prince Of
Wales. Even then there was no alarm, for
the Rtstement was made that the Emperor
was keeping to his room by advice OF bis
phyHicians.
During the afternoon sitting OF the
Reichstag Prince BismarCk received an
urgent summons to hasten 10 the palace.
He was told that the Emperor was dy.

from the streets, they are treated to a bath, put
into clean beds, given medicine to quiet their
shattered nerves, and after plenty of sleep, with
returning strength, they realize that they are
among friends, and, if they sincerely desire to re-
form, they work very cheerfully till they are
deemed strong enough to be returned to friends, or
situations can be procured for them. The home
is industrial as we'll as reformatory A large
laundry receives work from all parts of Boston.
Plain sewing and button holes are also done with
exquisite care. The home will lodge thirty women.
Thirty three per cent of money used comes from
charitable contributions the balance is earned by
inmates
The work has grown so that more room is i'm
perative, and new building will be erected.
Land has been purchased at the corner of Binney
and Smyrna Streets and building large enough
to accommodate one hundred and fifty persons
will be built in the most SIMPLE practical fashion,
securing at the lowest possible estimate, appliances
for the large industrial departments of the home.
With larger accommodations, more women can be
brought under the influence of this home, the first
one of the kind opened in the United States, and
through which 1875 women have passed.
A successful fair was held at Music hall, Boston,
March 18th, in which the most noted women of
Boston and surrounding cities took part, having
been invited to do so by Mrs. Micah Dyer, who

marshal of this occasion was Mrs. L. A. Turner,
national treasurer of the Woman's Relief Corps.

e'thus saith the Lord with which to brow beat
her into her "God-given place." The church
considers the matter settled and woman's place is
where the civilization of the times places her.
Science considers woman sphere an open ques-
ton and is willing to give her chance to solve
the problem Woman herself is not willing to
look the question fairly and squarely in the face
and give due weight to to the points that are
against her as well as the claims she is 50 eager to
urge She is not asking humbly for the truth in
the matter, but like child is crying for what she
wants. The question of equality has nothing to
do with woman's advancement The question of
capacity is the only issue. Science has unbolted
the doors to woman's knock, and it rests with her
to solve this question of capacity. Earnest, true
womanhood has nothing to fear at the hands of
science, and above ALL that branch represented by
the medical profession.
