butthey have as yet done nothing inthis
direction. There is considerable hos
tility iu both France and Germany
against the policy of these govern
ments in excluding our meats; but this
hostile sentiment is probably over
borne by the demand of home pro-
ducers for protection from American
competitors. II France and Germany
persist in this policy of exclusion, re-
taliation on our part would seem to be
iustifiable.s At any rate these govern
ments should be given to understand
that their policy toward our products
is not conducive to that friendly feel

OUR GIRLS In COLLEGE.
Statistics n TO the Effect of Mental Work
Upon the Health Of Women.

Statistics as to the Effect of Mental Work
Upon the Health OF Women.
New York Sun.l
Some very interesting health statistics
have been published of the women students
of Cambridge and Oxford and of their sis
ters. The result of the various inquiries
sent out to these women of learning demon
stratss the fallacy of the old argument that
a university education is specially injurious
to the constitution Of women, or that women
are educated at the expense of their reserve
fund, and in consequence, make unsatis-
factory and inefficient mothers.
The proportion, both of students and their
sisters who are married, is decidedly low,
particularly among the women in the pro-
lessional classes, where it is probably less
than one-half. But, on the other hand,
when marriages do take place, there are
fewer childless ones among the students than
among their sisters and cousins, and there is
not only larger proportion OF children, but
the children are healthier. As large q pro-
portion of women who have had a university
course enjoy good health now as did SO at the
time they entered college, while the num-
Der in poor health among those who have
read for honors is somewhat reduced.
The only .unfsvorable fact is the tempor-
ary falling Oh in health during college life
of about per cent in good health. This is
doubtless due to the relaxing climate of the
universities and inattention to the simple
laws of health and lack OF sufficient sleep,
rather than the result of mental activity and
anxiety. A great many more sisters than
students have engaged in household work
art, music, nursing and other occupations
but a much larger number Of sisters than
students have no occupation at all.

MRS. KENDAHs WONDERFUL FAN.
Dainty Weapon In Beauty's Lands and n
Guard Against Toilet Accidents.
New York World.1


Dainty Weapon In Bsauty's Lands and n
Guard Against Toilet Accidents.
New York world.l
A very odd thing in fans was brought
from London last week as a present. This
fan is flmy affair of gauze stretched on a
black frame, and Is the most simple and in
nocent-looking of the fan species when 1t is
folded up and lies demurely in lady's lap
or reposes peacefully upon her dressing
table. But let pretty woman unfurl and
hold it before her face, and the most incor-
rigible woman hater will become dimly
aware that even his peace is menaced by the
fine coquetry of the dainty weapon.
In the middle of the black gauze is set
tiny velvet half mssque, through which
pair of merry, tawny-brown eyes can do aw-
full execution. The thin fabric upon which
it is placed is distractingly becoming to the
fair and delicate tints of hair and face, and
the long, slender ebony sticks, decorated
with bow and streamers of sable velvet, are
in strong and pleasing contrast to white,
slender fingers.
This is what q man will see in the Ken
,dsl ian-cailed so because Mrs. Kendall
invented and patented it-but look you nov
what follows and you shall learn what
woman finds in the dainty toy when she in
vestigates its true inwardness, On one side
of the outer stick is small oval mirror set
above velvet bow, in the loops of which
bangles little black satin bag as round and
only trifle larger than French franc. 1t
contains a morsel of q powder puff In an
unsuspected creyice behind the mirror are
three halrpins. On the opposite side of the
fan a clasp holds in place wee pencil,
glove-buttoner and folding scissors, and in
groove are stuck half a dozen pins, while
miniature vinaigrette is slowed away at the
conjunction of sticks, stresmers and soft
fingers. They cost "a.

down into the boat. There were IL OF them
in all.
During the engagement the Union war
Doat Congress came out q few miles below
the port and steamed mp the bay until It
had come within 100 yards Of the Merrimac.
The rebel gunboat never fired shot at the
Congress, for very good reasons 1t was after:
ward learned. After the battle it was found
out that the Captain of the Congress
and the commander of the Merrimac were
brothers, and for this reason there was no
interchange of shot between them.
A TRAITOR TO HIS COUNTRY.
1.-THE Congress came up on the side near
est the fort, and tried to prevent us from
with his crew which he handed over to the
rebels. We succeeded IN landing safely,
however, and had the sailors taken to the
hospital, where they soon recovered, and
again started out. The IL survivors OF the
Cumberland's crew of 400 returned to New
York after they had participated in several
other engagements at Newport and Fortress
Monroe, and were rendered q testimonial
at one of the theaters there. had papers
concerning the opening engagements Of the
Merrimac and the Cumberland, but these
were lost in the Chicago fire Of 1871. I
would like to communicate with any of them

records this makes it impossible"
Mr.. George is now engaged in the var
nish manufacture in Allegheny. he did
good work at Fortress Monroe, where he
prevented the troops from breaking into a
supply house and taking the goods. He
has never received any official recognition
for his brave act during the great battle.
He does not want pension, as he has
large business interest, but he said he
wanted the credit for this work, which
some other people claimed to have done. He
also stated after he had rescued the party
and had landed them safely on shore, they
had to cross a bridge to gain a fort. While
crossing this bridge a she'll from the Merri-
mac struck it directly in front of him. The
shell shattered the bridge to pieces, and
the end on which Mr.. George was standing
gave way and precipitated him into the
river, about 100 feet below. He succeeded
in catching hold of some of the floating
debris until he was taken from the water by
two soldiers from the fort.
OTHER ESCAPES.
He also told of a narrow escape he had
while acting as a seaman on the Red Sea.
He was on a war ship that blew up in mid
ocean. He foated about for five days on a
raft, and was at the point Of dying from
starvation and thirst when he was picked up
by merchant vessel and taken to CONSTANT
nople. Alter staying there for few years
he came to this country. Mr.. George is now
in his 56th year, and is as adventurous as
ever.

A GREAT WORK.
ENCOURAGING REPORTS FROM THE
STATES REPRESENTED.

Keeping the Races Apart for the Sake of
Peace-An Offer of S5.OOO-Some Re-
markabIe StatIstics-setting Apart a
sunday for Temperance Lessons.
The devotional exercises at the beginning
of the morning session were conducted by
Rev. E. P. Armstrong, of Springfield, Mass.
The convention then resumed the hearing
of State reports. Some States were not rep
resented when they were called on Tuesday.
Bishop B. W. Arnett, colored, reported for
South Carolina, where the work, he said,
was moving rapidly. There are separate
Sunday schools for white anj black, not be-
cause they believe that to be necessary to
salvation, but for the sake of peace. The
white schools of South Carolina were repre-
sented by j. W. Robson; South Dakota by
d. W. Diggs; Tennessee by John B. Pep
per; Virginia by Mr.. West; Vermont by F.
Fairbanks; Texas by George Bachman;
West Virginia by c. B. Graham, Wiscon-
SIN BY Mr.. Benjamin and Wyoming by Mr..
Barnum.
B. f. Jacobs presented the report of the
Executive Committee, the salient points of
which were published in The DISPATCH
yesterday. Mr.. Jacobs said
he WOULD GIVE 5000
to enable agents to visit the principal mis-
sion stations in Asia and Australia and
report to the worlds convention in 1898.
He said he knew another man who would
give as much. The report of the committee
was referred to a special committee, COM
posed of j. D. Wsttles, Pennsylvania; J.
N. Green, Georgia; John R. Pepper, Ten
nessee; Rev. John McEwen. Ontario, and
r. d. Wolf, Missouri.
During the noon recess platform had
been erected running from the front of the
stage out into the auditorium, about
30 feet The speakers stood at the extreme
end of this platform, so that half their words
could not be heard by the reporters. The
afternoon audience numbered over 5000.
The report of the statistical secretary was
read. The interesting part of it was the
figures giving the school statistics for the
States, Territories and Provinces, and fhe
figures for chief cities. The figures are as
follows:
