rection. 1t Is no answer to this qaes-
ton. whether women shall propose. to
say that every woman can get mar
ried who wishes to do so, and that all
history shows this. The real question
is. is she free to marry according to
her taste and inclination, and would
she be happier. in the majority OF
cases. If she could honorably APP
proach those to whom she is attract
ed, instead OF waiting to be APP
preached by those who are attracted
to her!
1t is not fair to leave this question
hanging in the air without saving
that there are o~ld-fashioned people of
both sexes who think men and women
are radically different, that If they
were made alike the world would be a
fiat affair, and that, as human life is
arranged, the pleasure of being wooed
is quite equal to the pleasure of
wooing.-Chdries Dudley Warner in

It was greeted at the Academy of
Music by a large audience, who began
laughing when the curtain went up

famous for its innocent and amusing
jokes and ridiculous situations by
Barry and Fay. Unfortunately Mr..

this city, was i'll and unable to per

known comedian, Frank keenan,,

A Spanish California wedding.

Nothing was more attractive than
the wedding cayelcade on its way
from the brides house to the Mission
Church. The horses were more richly
caparisoned than for any other cere-
mony, and the brides nearest relativ Q
or family representative carried her
before him. she sitting on the saddle
with her white satin shoe in a loop of
golden or silver braid, while he
sat on the bearskin-covered
anquera behind. The groom and his
friends mingled with the brides party
all on the best horses that could be
obtained, and they rode gayly from
the ranch house to the mission, some
times fifteen or twenty miles away.
In April and Nav when the land was
covered with wild flowers, the light
hearted troop rode along the
edge OF the uplands, between hill
and valley, crossing the streams,
and some of the young horsemen
anxious to show their skill, would
perform all the feats for which the
Spanish Californians were famous.
After the wedding, when they re-
turned to lead in the fe~asting, the
bride vas carried on the horse of the
groomsman. One OF the customs
which was always observed at the
wedding was to wind a siiken tassled
string or silken sash fringed with gold
about the necks of the bride and groom,
binding them together as they knelt
before the altar for the blessing of the
priest. A charming custom among
the middle and lower classes was the
making of the satin shoes by the
groom for the bride. A few weeks
before the wedding he asked his be-
trothed for the measurement of her
foot, and made the shoes with his
own hands; the groomsman broug hit
them to her on her wedding day

Senator Mcpherson on the Force
Bill.

AFA(A VII -
Bill.
We give in another column toda y a
full report of Senator McPherson's
mastery speech against the Force
Bill, delivered In the Senate last
week, and we make no apology for
for doing so after this lapse of time,
the u~tterancss it contains are of the
kind that are always new and always
worthy of study. Senator Mcpherson
during his present term appears
to be bent on snrpassing his previous
public services. 1t is certain that he
occupies a more conspicuous place in
Congress than ever before, and his
excellent work brings a harvest Of
honor not only to himself, but also to
the State be represents.
The Force Bill is the second Repub-
lican partisan measure to which SEN
ator Mcpherson has led the opposi-
ton. He combatted the Mckinley
tariff iniquity with splendid skill and
patriotism, and If he failed to defeat
the Ubiquitous measure it vas only
because reason and right were OF no
avail against the banded forces OF
greed and seliishness.
The Senator will probably have
better success in the present struggle.
His opponents have about run their
course. The people have at last
gained a comprehension of their de-
signs and of the dangers into which
they were dragging the country.
Even In the Republican party itself
the better element has awakened to
the fatal character OF the policy by
which they have been guided during
the past year. This time reason will
he heard and, we hope, right will pre-
vail
We urge all our readers to make a
close study of the Senator's dissection
OF the Force Bill. He shows that 1t is
q partisan measure. devised and urged
for partisan purposes, that it is de-
signed simply to counterfeit the tre-
mendous opposition TO n Republican
party which has been growing for
years on account of its oppressive and
unrepublican tendencies. He showed
that it had parallels in history,
and that it marked a drift t in politics
such as in other countries had ended
in arjstocracy and d~espotism-
Ms appeal TO the record OF Demo
cratic New Jersey, and his handsome
tribute to Governor Albeit were by
no means the least notable passages
in Senator McPherson's speech, aud
the contrast he drew between the
free and popular methods of the
Democracy on the one hand and the
narrow and coercive spirit of Repub-
licanism on the other were the erys-
utilization in a few sentences Of all
the issues of i present national
politics.
We congratulate the Senator Oh his
able and brilliant speech, and the
people of New Jersey on the posses
sion OF so courageous and masterful
a champion Of popular rights.
