WOMEN IN ART.
They Are Destined to Take Rank With Men
i'm the Profession.

IN the IrOIesslcn.
Looking back, and not so very far
either, we see that little by little women
have won their places in the different
branches of art, as in various profess
sions and occupations the world over
1t is safe to say now. says the Boston
Herald, they may do almost anything
they can do. Women have taken the
stand to which they are entitled, that
of individuals. How much they have
suffered from being considered as a sex
merely, fit only for maternal and domes-
tic duties, who can tell, Talent knows
no sex, but it is unlike genius in that it
NAV be crushed out No doubt the
women. as we'll as men, are innumerable
who, for lack of opportunity. have suf-
fered themselves to do badly for a life
time tasks for which they had neither
taste nor training. OF course. single
instances have occurred of those who
have prepared themselves against great
odds for work outside the prescribed
lines. They had to work far harder to
attain their purposes than men. and the
praise accorded them has too often been
embittered by unjust ASPIRATIONS.
Nevertheless. through them has come
the proof that certain things could be
accomplished by women. and the evil
dence thus shown has carried stimula-
tion and encouragement TO other women
to an extent simply incalcuable. The
sex owe it to these pioneers that it is no
longer necessary for women to marry
for other considerations than the high
est and purest: nor for mothers to re-
greet that all their children are not boys.
Head and hand education now offer the
means of employment to girls and boys
alike, and honorable occupation makes
life fully as interesting to maids as to
matrons.
But there are still antagonistic opin-
Ions OF public, rooted in early preiu-
dices, to be met. These oppose the in
dependence of women. and by filling
their hearts with bitter sense of in
justice makes unequal and sometimes
unwomanly. growth that would other
wise be noble and symmetrical. The

bone Of Speaker Reed and the manly
eloquence of the Republican leader on
the floor of the House, Mckinley, could
hardly fail to strike responsive chord
in the popular heart
The truth is that during the time that
Mr.. Carlisle was Speaker of the House
the Democrats made . great mistake,
but that is certainly no reason why the
Republicans should do the same. Which
ever party has a majority in Congress
holds commission from the people Of
the United States which reads, being
interpreted: Know all men by their
presents that we, the people, hold the
party responsible for what is done
or left undone by this Congress. 1t is
no excuse to say that the minority fill
bustered and turned victory into defeat.
Each House of Representatives makes
Its own rules and is absolute in its mas
terry Of the situation, so far as concerns
its own record. II in the fortunes Of
politics the Democrats should have q
majority in the Fifty-second Congress
they ought, irrespective of precedents,
to shape the legislation of the session,
so far as concerns the House, and not to
allow the fruits of victory to be enjoyed
by the vanquished. In other words,
this is not partisan matter, but great
principle which ought to be settled on u
non-partisan basis.
The abuse of the powers of minority,
which it is now proposed to check.
largely grew out OF the fact that under
the Randall rule the House presented
the spectacle of free-trade body pre-
sided over by protectionist, and, IS .
natural consequence, the Speaker was
at heart more than willing to have the
minority hold the majority in check.
If Mr.. Carlisle had been gifted with q
good, stiff backbone he would have eff
fected the reform which it now falls to
the lot of Mr.. Reed to effect.-Chicago

than to defraud a woman of that which
she has honestly earned. Nine-tenths
| of the women who clerk in shops and
| offices work for a pittance which they
know will not provide for the emergen-
| cies of illness or accident. They also
know that, work as faithfully as they
may, save as carefully and live as eco
nomically, they are unable to lay aside
| anything for the future.
Charity in case of illness, poverty and
helplessness in old age, are two phan.

that independence and advancement
would be the final result of faithfulness
| and perseverance, would be transformed
with cheerfulness and courage.
But matters are mending everywhere.
There is no work now in which there
are not degrees of excellence. The best
is recognized. preferred and, in many in
stances, paid for. Women are perceiv-
ing this, and are striving to impro,
themselves SO that they may be ready
for the better places. The clerk is in
terested in her employers business and
wins promotion. The teacher may be-
come principal or critic. The type
writer and stenographer may set up an
office of her own, secure patronage, and
be the architect of her own fortunes.
The Service of Citizens.
In the days of feudalism, women were
not allowed to hold real estate because
they could not fight to defend it. But
the right to vote in our republic, says
Mrs. Livermore, is not made to depend
on the ability to fight. If it were, it
would disfranchise half the voting men
Of the nation. All men over forty-five
years of age would be counted out, as
they are considered past the fighting
age. OF these, there are $1,000 in the
single State of Massachusetts. So would
all clergymen, because of the moral
service they are suppose to render. The
published record of United States Mill
tary Statistics show that more than
quarter of the men who enlisted and
were examined by the surgeons, during
our late Civil War, were found to be
physically unfit for service, and were
not mustered into the army. When
nation goes to war, it claims other ser
vice of its citizens. both men and wom-
en-, than fighting. Ten per cent. of an
army is detailed to serve the rest, as
cooks, tailors, ETC., and they do no fight
ing. And the hundreds of thousands Of
women who served their country during
the last war, by work in the Sanitary
and Christian Commissions, who nursed
in the hospitals, maintained at home
the sentiment of loyalty to the govern
ment. and upheld steadily the supreme
moral force necessary to success, were
as important as the army itself.

STOCKTON. July George q. Coughlan
Of San Jose, who represented the syndicate
that negotiated for the purchase of the
Stockton Club, officiated as umpire in the
game between the Stockto and San Fran
ciscos to-day and gave the yellowest exhi-
billion Of umpiring ever seen on California

the home team Jared worst, and was robbed
Of the game when Ccughlan allowed Levy
TO score in the eighth inning on foul ball
that went by the catcher, and on his decid-
ing Selma out at the plate on home-run
hit beyond the bicycle path. On the latter
decision the crowd went wild and threat
enrd to mob him.
When the game ended Coughlan went to
tho dressing-room with the mob after him,
and when on the inside he was attacked by
Selma, who struck him in the face and
knocked him down.
Sheriff Cunningham and squad eff police
men broke open the door and rescued
Coughlan, escorting him off the grounds.
The umplrlng OF Chase yesterday was I'M
satisfactory, and it was agreed that to-day's
game should be umpired by Manager Finn

teams selected Coughlan.
In tO-day's game the Stocktons started

sixth on base on balls, single. a sacrifice
and two passed balls. In the seventh they
hit Kilr0y for two singles and a triple.
which, with an error. gave them three runs.
