WOMAN'S COLUMN,
Smart Women in the Census
 Bureau.
THE NATIONAL COUNCIL OF WOMEE.
Washington ExtravaganCes. - Legal
 Liability of Women.

We have in the census office nearly HOO women. With the exception of 146 employed as skilled laborers, they have all passed an examination in the various branches required. It is safe to say that over half the number have stood high in arithmetic, receiving all the way from S5 to as high as 100 per cent. We have in the census office one room in which 200 young ladies are en- gagged under a woman chief making comparisons for the final tables of the census. Women are engaged in what Is called working out the equated life of mortgages, also under a woman chief.
 A woman has had entire charge of the insurance division in the census office, which, though smaller than those refer red to above, nevertheless involves very important work. In this work I find women very satisfactory and conscien- tious. As a rule women just out of school are better for such work than those who come in later in life. There are instances, however, in the census of fee of women who have for the first time met with misfortune and been obliged to earn their own living who have made good records as computers.
 The following is a list of the ten women clerks who made the best record in tabulating the census returns on the electrical machines, with the average made by each in ten days:
 Miss M A Higgins, of Tennessee. .......... sa.esS Miss Etta Sullivan, of Missouri. ............ 69,09S Miss M NJ Cassin, of District of Columbia. s. S4a Miss A. G. Cressweu, Of North Carolina. 61, ,65i Miss l. NJ. Carrico, of Maryland SO,517 Miss Jamie Sylvester, of Virginia. 7962S Mrs. E. W. Bergen of Michigan ............ 7e, 408 Miss Kate F. Spencer, of Michigan ....... 79,0 ,039 Miss Alice Priest of Michigan. n.......... 78 9IO Miss c. M Crook, of District of Columbia. 7S,16l
 These facts, and indeed the records of the entire six weeks, show that women are better adapted for this particular work than men. They are more exact in touch, more expeditions in handling the schedules, more at home in adjust ing the delicate mechanism of the ma chine, and apparently more anxious to make a good record. For this reason l contend that all work of this kind should be done by women.-Robert P. Porter in Home Magazine.

Instead of wintering at Corfu, as was her original intention, it is very likely that the empress of Austria will go to the West Indies in a few weeks, in which case she will probably cruise on this side of the Atlantic during the greater DOT ton of next year. The empress has con ceived a wish to visit Cuba, Jamaica and Mexico.

Mrs. Lease, the woman orator for the Kansas farmers, did not come down from the stump when the election was over. She is still making speeches for the embattled farmers, and says she will not let up until the senatorial question is settled. During the recent campaign Mrs. Lease made as many as four speeches a day, and one day she made two before breakfast.

An OFFICIAL ACCOUNT.
Italian Papers M Sinister Posser'-
Diplomacy.

NEw SoRlS, April l6.-The Italian
papers which reached New York yes
tcfday contain, among many Interest,
ing comments Of the prcs upon tn,
departure Of Baron Fava from Wash.
ington, IN. Official version Of an inter.
view which took place nj tho Italian
foreign Office, between United States
Minister Porter and Count d'Isxarco,
who, during the absence Of III Rudlni,
had charge Of the foreign office. The
interview lasted for two hours, runs
the official italian version, and was
most interesting.
Minister Porter defended Mt length
the conduct OF the United States Fed.
eral Government and sought 10 secure
n delay. Finally Count d'Exarco
turned and put 10 the American min.
lister tho following question In press.
Ing terms. "Supposc," said lac, ga
dozen Americans accused OF treason
and assassinated In some Italian city;
suppose our government should claim
that II was unable 10 proceed against
the guilty parties, not having power 10
interfere with local judicial authorities
In the discharge OF tho duties which
are incumbent upon them, what would
you do? What would the federal gov.
eminent Of the United States do?"
Atthis demand Minister Porter let
II be clearly seen TINT In such case
he would be- prepared "to overthrow
half the world.n
"What would the civilized world
what would the United States Of
America, think ofthis action, or rather
OF such innctIon;'
"Nilnister Porter, evidently, was
greatly embarrassed and sought 10 ex-
plain how the Constitution Of the
United States differed essentially from
the Italian confederation, aud how ID
was simply impossible for the Federal
government 20 interfere In the local
affairs Of Louisiana, hut Count d'fx.
arco replied quickly, we have nothing
10 do with your Constitution, Its short,
comings or merits. We do not know
that constitution Is worthy Of u civil
llzed people, which does not secure
full aud Just penal code which Is the
first basis Of civilized society,"
"Allnis,er Porter demanded that
Italy should delay any further steps In
the matter until "a definite reply 10 her
representations and to her demands
could he made by the Federal govern.
