at Washington, and voluble people
OF all sexes crate glowingly on
the subject. The figure of a frontier
goddess, mountain sprite or some
thing of the kind has been put on the
state seal. At any rate, it is woman,
represented as ruStling in queenly
way. The pastoral simplicity of the
life suggested under the mutually of
political privileges is symbolized by an
entirely undraped figure. The Edenic
reflection is realistic. 1t is reported
that, when the seal was ordered, there
was graceful flowing Of loose drapery,
but the zephyrS had stolen it away.
The governor is understood to have
blushed when, on its first use, he discov-
cred the situation; but there seems no
way of clothing the figure without
special session of the legislature. Fer
hapS it was malicious trick of the
artist. There are apt to be veXations
and incidents for the trial of fortitude
in the progress of a great cause. The
climate may be mild, but the suffrage
canse does not propose to ruin the dry
goods trade.

wYoMlNG's DISTINCTION.

The Wyoming people affect to be
really proud of the distinction that
state has, of being the only one in the
galaxy that has no distinction of sex at
the ballot-hoX. While it was territory
this equality of rights attracted little
attention. as the voting did not amount
to much, and there we're very few
women there. The aggregate vote

GOSSIP OF THE DAY.

Last week ''fire-proof' tWelve-story
building in Minneapolis took fire in the
top story, says a Pittsburg paper, and
ii was found that the fire department
could not make its streams reach above
the seventh or eighth story. Ii the rage
for tall buildings continues it will be
necessary either to make. them really
fire-proof or to get up some device for
letting the top part Of the buildings
down within reach of the fire engines
when they take fire.

Washington is hereafter to be col
lOquially known. writes Il New York
scribe, as the Chinook" state; North
Dakota as the "Fiickertail'' state;
South Dakota as the "Swingecat'' state.
and Montana as the "Stubbed Toe''
state. Emerson said of the Spanish eX-
ptorers that they gave to mountains and
rivers ''nameS which are poems"
Nothing of the sort can be said of the
American nomenclature of our day.

are 10 per cent picturesque and 90 per

Walton for Washington? Wash" is
repeHant, and "Wangth." is cumbrous.
Besides, it is nuisance to have state
bearing the same name as the national
capital. 1t leads to endless confusion.
The young state ought to ind for itself
some other appellation.
+
The radical defect in the politico-
social system of the capital is again
brought out in bold relief by the crush
ing bereavement and unfortunate po-
stion of the family of the late secretary
of the treasury. Mrs. Window, in the
sudden death of her husband, has been
left practically without revenue aud
with the burdens of an expensive estab-
lishment. At one time Secretary Win
dom was in more than comfortable cir
cumstances. Reverses in financial
operations deprived him of the
larger share of what he had
laid by. When he returned to
place in the cabi net he established
himself in fine house, taking a lease
for four year, at $4,000 a year. Not
quite half of this term has passed. Mrs
Window desires to go into less eXpen-
sive quarters. but. despite the efforts of
her friends, cannot relieve herself of the
load of home which she cannot carry,
owing to the obstinacy of her landlord.
The house being in a desirable locality
might in the fall be Sublet. but at pres
ent added to her grief is the worry of
home which has no associations of hap
piness, and is freighted with wasteful
demands upon her limited means.
Mrs. WINDOWS family consists of her
two daughters and her married son. an
invalid. 1t is Mrs. WINDOWS intention
to make Washington her permanent
home. She will secure house of mod
est dimensions and homelike surround
ings and keep her family around her.
In the summer she will pass her time
among her relatives in Massachusetts,.
In that way she hopes TO pass the even
ing of her days III quiet memory of the
happy past and provident thoughts for
the responsibilities and duties of the
vacant future.
