LITTLE ROCK, ARK, SATURDAY, NAY "a, 1890.

In recent number of The CHRONICLE there ap-
peared quotation from the National Speaker,
commencing ''God give us men, We were
laughingly told that we would hear from it--and
so we have from several sources. The following
comes from one who evidently believes that such
men as the poet calls for should have their coun-
terparts in the gentler sex. Undoubtedly from
the first the All-wise Creator intended
"sun crowned men,,
Who live above the fog
In public duty or in private thinking
should find women whose lives
a Are crowned star .gemmed with virtues
We do not think the men described in the lines
above are as plentiful as the women.
The Woman's Penny Paper Of London has I'M
dertaken the commendable enterprise OF sending
the two most popular teachers upon tour Of the
Continent to last during the summer vacation.
One candidate will be selected from the school
mistresses Of London, the other from Great Britain
outside the radius of the London School Board.
All expenses will be betrayed by the proprietors
Of the Penny Paper. Any school-mistress is elg-
ible, whether principal or assistant, and anyone
may vote-man, woman or child-the sole cond-
ton being that the voting must be done upon the
official ballot, published weekly in the Penny
Paper.
In referring to the movement recently inaugu-
rated by Marion Harland, to erect monument to
Martha Washington, the Chicago Times remarks:
1.-The women Of America greatly revere the
memory of Martha, the mother Of George Wash
ington, a woman Of sterling character, who ad-
mittedly exercised controlling influence upon the
character of her ilustrous son at the age when
for better or worse mems characters are formed"
This may be American history las taught in
Chicago during the early schoo-boy days of the
editor of the Times, but there are those in this
and other sections south Of Chicago, who firmly
believe and teach that Martha was the wife Of the
great George, and that his mother wore the sweet
name Of Mary.
The bill granting q pension to Mrs. Della T.
Stewart Parne passed the House in Washington
with the amendment cutting it from $1,000 year
TO 5000. This reduction was met with spirited
protest by Congressman Cummings. The pension
is asked because she is the daughter Of one Of the
most devoted, distinguished and heroic officers in
the American navy. Admiral Charles Stewart
served the navy seventy-one years. The Con-
gressonal Record Of May 10 says ..
"If the country had returned him his due his
daughter to-day would not be suffering for the
necessaries of life. She is IA years old, sick, in
firm and destitute. Not two weeks ago you passed
pension bill here granting to the widow Of Ad-
miral Nicholson 500 month. 1t was money
we'll bestowed How, in view Of your action then,
you can cut the proposed pension Of the daughter

the aristocratic side of New York was taken re-
Gently, and rather peculiar showing was the re-
suit. Three hundred houses on Fifth avenue were
canyassed-taken in regular order-and there were
found in all just 81 children under ten years of
age, and the total number born within year was
six. '
Cherry Hill is tenement district, and in three
hundred families were found $50 children under
ten years, and the number born within a year
was Ill. iIE
The question, Is wealth an enemy to childhood?
is. answerable in the affirmative evidently. 1t
seems also evident that the future OF the nation
depends more upon Cherry Hill than upon Fifth
avenue.
MANY Of The enterprisng citizens OF DalasJ
Texas, have become embued with ideas and con.
vlctiens upon the subject Of the higher education
of women They believe that
sThe sphere of womans activities Is being ele-
waited and broadened, and wherever intelligence
and tact, aithfulness and scholarship are the pre-
requisites OF success, we now find our once petted
and codded women achieving distinction and
honor, and this too, at no sacrifice Of femininity
or womaniness. Distinctions and differences, in
telectualy, exist between the sexes, but later and
juster appreciation does not establish or concede
inequality. Our mothers, wives, daughters and
sisters are our peers in mind, and 1t is folly il not
crime, to scorn the truth. There is no place in
Texas established for her exclusive benefit, where
a young woman may receive the same advantages
of education that are supplied either by public or
private benefaction to her brother"
The outcome of these sentiments has been the
founding of Oak Cliff Female University at Dallas
Texas. A large fund has been raised, a beautiful
and healthful location selected and the new inst-
tuition is to be modelled as far as practical after
Vassar College Of New York.

LAST week Pennsylvania admitted its second
female lawyer to the Bar. She is Miss Alice G.
MCGEE, aged 81 years, and daughter Of Joseph
MCGEE, an oil producer. Judge Brown compli-
mented her highly on her proficiency, as she passed
the hest examination Of any candidate for ten
wears. She is handsome young woman and a
good office lawyer. The first woman admitted to
the Bar was Mrs Carrie Kilgore, Of Philadelphia.
On May %, for the first time in the history OF

New York, providing for constitutional amend

Twice before minority Of the committee has re-
ported favorably on similar propositions and one
of these reports was drawn by the present speaker
Mr.. Reed, but majority could not be induced to
take favorable action.

FORCED TO CRAWFISH.
Bloody Balfour Jumped Upon by
Nationalist.

LONDON, June 16.-In the house Of
commons to night Mr.. Balfour, replying
to. Mr.. Dillon, denied that the police
had charged upon and dubbed the peo-
pie at New Tipperary for lighting bon
fires to celebrate the marriage of Will
lam O'Brien. The police, ne said, had
put out the bonfires because they formed
an obstruction in the streets. Messrs.
Gill and Clancy, Nationalist. ques-
toned Mr.. Balfour regarding the gov
ernment's system of 'shadOwing" per-
sons in Ireland. They wanted to know
how this shadowing could prevent boy
cOtting. Mr.. BalfOur replied that no
one was Swallowed unless he was known
to be engaged in intimidation. The
government would promise to reduce
the system only on the condition
that the Parnellites promised to induce
the persons Swallowed to abstain from
intimidation. Mr.. Dillon: eff, after
this brutal. aDominable outrage there is
blood shed it will be upon your head"
Mr.. ParnelI asked Mr.. BalfOur to adopt
the English presumption that every
person accused is innocent until proven
to be guilty.
will Mr.. Parnell undertake that
those people Shall lOC repeat tHeir
crime?" asked MIR. BalfOur. This ques-
ton brought out LOUD Parnellite cries of
"What crime?' Amid a tremendous
uproar on the Parnellite side of the
house, Mr.. Dillon began an excited
speech. He denounced Mr.. Balf0ur and
demanded an apology for the use of the
word ''crime." A stormy scene ensued,
in which Mr.. Gill accused Mr.. Balfour
of lying, and Mr.. Gladstone challenged
him to prove his assertion that the Lib
erals resorted to the practice of shadow
ing. Mr.. Balfour substituted the
words intimidation and bOycotting"
for sscr:me." Finally the speaker ap-
pealed to the house, and the matter was
dropped.

The Governments Police Bill Does
Not Please Them.

-
Not Please Them.
LONDON, June 16.-The governments
police bill, which is published to-day,
fails to satisfy the disconnected ''bob-
bies" Notwithstanding its obvious pur-
pose to mollify the feeling growing out
of Mr.. Matthew'S arbitrary course. The
disaffection of the police has finally
taken definite form, and meeting to
decide upon plan of action which will
be put into operation at once. The pro-
fessional labor agitatOrs have come
promptly to the front with offers of as
sistance, and in some cases have dis
pensed with the formality of
offering their services and taken
up the cause of the police
as their own. One of the first measures
to be adopted by the police, it is stated
upon authority, will be their prompt
and positive de clinatiOn of the assist
ance Of these agit atorS, for the reason
that their identif cation with the move
ment will drive away the very element
of popular support of which the men
stand in greatest need. and upon which
they rely chiefly for success. The in
is being eXerted in the direction of re-
straining violent expression of the In
tense excitement which prevails in his
department, and this is the only check
upon demonstration which would
wreck the hopes of the leaders of fore
ing the government into liberal COM
promise, if not an absolute breakdown.
In parliament there is evidence. in the
temper of the opposition and Mr.. Bal
four's surrender in the matter of the
land purchase bill, of the waning power
of the government, and every possible
advantage will be taken of the situation
to increase the confusion of the min
iStrY.

but it is probable that the arranging Of
the details will occupy nearly fort
night. England Is likely to get all she
asks in Ngamiland. The North Ger

agreement is not likely to please every
body, either in Germany -or in Eng

all apprehension is removed, and that
Lord Salisbury has met the German
claims in spirit of perfect fairness.
The Hamburger Nachrichten declares
that the outlined agreement is fatal
mistake; that everything is conceded to
England, and that the Germans are
duped in most ridiculous manner.

A meeting was held last night of a
number of gentlemen interested in base
ball in this city, when active measures
were taken to preserve the franchise of
the st. Paul club. 1t is proposed to
effect new organization to purchase
the franchise and reorganize the team
to some extent. A preliminary organ
izatfon of the new company was ac-
complished, Capt. James Starkey being
elected chairman and NJ. j. Roche
secretary. Various committees were
appointed and some of these
will engage actively during the next
few days in soliciting subscriptions and
working up new interest in the game in
this city. Indications are very favor
able. and there is scarcely any doubt as
to the success of the movement. There
is probably not better base ball town

new blood in the local team, so that

appear. Another meeting will be held

pected permanent organization will be
effected.
