German Women and Education.

The German government has partly
granted the petition of the Woman's
Reform Society of Germany, with head
quarters at Weimar, that young women
be allowed to have gynasiums of their
own, and to take, on graduation, the
honors and testimonials now given ex-
clusively to graduating young men, The
setting apart of special state institutions
for young women was regarded us a
premature step by the government and
was refused Favorable action on the
latter part of the petition will, how
ever, render it possible for every young
German woman to try for the honors of
graduation. The standard of the Ger
man gymnasium is about as high as the
standard of Hamilton or Union college,
so no German girl with enough money,
ambition and natural ability need in
future know less than Vassar or
Smith college graduate.

The Bad Little Boy Found that Brutes

crowds on Madison street lie was

whose pity was touched, that the dog
had been locked up in basement till
he was starving to death. The ele-

stopped down to the famished animal.
She sent u young man TO The restaurant
for a cup of milk, trusting the money to
him without thought of his deceiving
her. She had her coachman
called, and when he struggled
through the now augmented crowd
man pushed his plug hat on the back Of
his head, and, crowding the bad little
boy away, lifted the dog for the elegant
woman and echoed her expressions of
pity. Another man opened his lunch
basket and offered the best of his din
ner for the little animal, though it had
now grown too weak to eat even a
mouthful. A policeman pushed the
people right and left and offered to
carry the canine to the elegant woman's
carriage.
"rll take it myself said the well
dressed man, and he gathered it up in
his arms. The crowd opened q way for
him, and followed down the street, a

ST, PETERSBURG, Nov. 16.-Reports
frem the famine-stricken districts of
the empire continue to show the despair
and suffering entailed upon the poorer
classes by the scarcity of food. The
government is fully alive to the exigen-
cieS of the situation, and is doing every
thing in its power to help the sufferers.
The cZar has made large donation for
the benefit of the sufferers from his
privy purse, in addition to turning over
TO the famine committee the sums of
money which were presented to him
upon the occasion of his silver wedding.
The cZarina, too. has given freely, and
other members of the imperial family
have helped to swell the fund for the
relief of the poor.
Large AZ the subscriptions are, they
are bat a drop in the oceans of money
that will be required to carry the thou
sands upon thousands of peasants,
small farmers and others through the
long Russian winter. At preset the
money, clothing and provisions
given to aid the sufferers are I'M
der the control of different organiza-
tons which work independent of each
other. The government believes that
the end sought will be better and more
quickly attained and with less waste
and friction if all the work of diStribu-
ton is in the hands of one committee
With this object in view the gov
erDment will appoint central
committee of which the cZarewitch
will be the president to supervise the
entire machinery for the relief of the
famine sufferers. The separate relief
organizations will not be disbanded or
curtalled in their operations, but all of
them will be subject to the control of
the central committee.
The soldiers Of Odessa garrison have
voluntarily asked that the daily bread
ration issued to them be reduced one
third for the benefit of the starving pe0-
pie in the famIne-stricken districts.
Self-sacritice Tor the benefit of the starry
ing is general among all classes of the
public, and often takes novel forms.
The Novosti declares that the finan-
cial crisis in Berlin has developed a
political crisis; that the war party has
gained the upper hand, and that the
prudent Bismarckian policy has been
forgotten in the frantic desire TO strike
Russia in the moment of weakness.

As confirmatory evidence of the truth
of the statement that the troubles in
Rio Grande are purely internal, and
have no bearing on national affairs,
Minister Mend0nca says that he has
discovered that the junta in that
state is composed OF four per-
sons, instead of three. as ut first report
ed. 1t was at first supposed that CassaI
Rlbeiro was one member. while it
appears that two persons were referred
to. Senior CaSSal and Senior Ribeiro.
! Both of these men are prominent lead
erS in the state, so that the junta
stands three Republicans to one llb-
eral. The latter-Gen. ROsaria-how-
ever, is not believed to cherish any

CUTS OF COINS.
Their Printing or publication For
hidden by Law.

WASHINGTON, Nov. l6.-Secretary
Foster today made the following state
ment about the publication of coin de-
signs: During the past week there have
appeared in the newspapers in different
parts OF the country, cuts OF the new
designs for coins recently approved by
the department. In some of the papers
articles have been published to the eff
feet that to publish the cuts was in VIC
lati0n of existing laws, while in other
paDers it was claimed there was no
law that such a reproduction on
paper cOntiicted with law. Therefore
/ deem it advisable. for the benefit of
the general public, to state that, while
the publishing of such cuts has always
been considered, and, in fact. was
harmless heretofore, there is now law
on the statute books, which was APP
proved Feb. 10, 1891, that forbids the
making or publishing of anything in re-
Semblance to any OF the coins of the
United States or of foreign govern
ments, not even the inscription thereon.
Secretary Foster, in quoting the law III
question, adds: 1t would appear from
the wording of the section that it was
not the intention of congress that any
person should be privileged to publish
representations of any OF the coins mem
toned ill the law.

anniversary of the proclamation OF the
Republic OF Brazil was observed today.
A military review and fetes were held
in honor of the occasion. The day
passed quietly; the public taking scant
interest in the celebration. The situa-
ton in San Paulc is daily becoming
more and more grave.
LONDON. Nov. 16.-NewS from Brazil
continues of the most conflicting char
acter-Otficlal dispatches from Rio
Jeneiro asserting with unequivOcal pos
itiveness that the country is absolutely
tranquil, while kilograms from BuenOS
Ayres and Santiago report Brazil
torn with diSSensions and seceS-
sion. Actual facts will probably
not be known until mail adviceS are re-
ceived, as official censorship prevents
dispatches not approved by the govern
ment reaching Europe direct. 1t is not
known how such dispatches reach
BuenOs AyreS and Chill. The latest
official advice from Brazil states trouble
in Rio Grande do Sui purely local. and
that government of that state is now in
the hands of a provisional junta.
1t is inferred from this that the au-
thorities at Rio regard the junta in
sympathy with the central government,
but this theory is contradicted by dis
patches from Santiago to the Times.
These declare that the provisional junta
has taken absolute control, and
asserts that it has all army of
$4,000 men armed with rifles.
1t IS short of artillery and has but one
war veSsel-a river monitor, lightly
armed. The junta declares in favor of
an impartial government as substitute
for the dictatorship, and it is proposed
to proceed to the election of new pres
ident in place OF. FOnseca.
Latest adviceS from Rio Janeiro say
that tonseca is augmenting his forces,
aud the city is in state of great eX-
element. FOnSeca is reported to have
10000 men at Rio. 1t is the general be-
lief in BuenOs Ayres that FOnseca will
be successful in Suppressing his enc
mics. A report reached Valparaiso
last night that the Brazilian navy is di-
vided in its sympathies.
NEW YORK. Nov. 16.-A dispatch
from BuenOs AyreS says the news from
Brazil is of still more alarming char
acter. 1t indicates the rapid spread of
revolution all through Rio Grande
do Sui. Gov. Castillo resigned
on Saturday, leaving the govern
ment of the state in the
hands of the provisional junta. From
all accounts the reyOlutiOnists so far
have been entirely successful. The
garrison at Itagui, on the Uruguay
river, surrendered without a battle
Porto Allegro, the capitol OF the state. is
In the hands of the reyolutiOnistS. 1t is
believed that several Northern PROV
lnceS will join the movement against

A CHINAMAN's RIGHTS.
The Supreme Court Issues a Writ
of CePtiorari.

of CePtiorari.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 10. An opinion
Of the United States supreme court was
handed down today in the case of Ian
Owe Bew. a Chinese citizen, who re-
sided i'll the United States for seventeen
years. and was refused readmittance
into this country on his return from q
temporary visit to China. Ian Owe Bew
is an importer in Oregon. Before going
to China he secured proof of his resi-
dence here, and presented the papers
certifying this to the collector at San
Francisco on his arrival from China, and
was refused admission OH tie ground
that he had no certificate of the Chinese
government certifying his American
residence.
''The court. in an opinion by Chief
Justice Fuller, says it will be seen that
the case involves the construction of the
Chinese restriction act and of treaties
between the United States and China.
The Chinese restriction act as amended
made Identification of Chinese other
than laOOrerS, who were entirely eX-
cluded, in the mode provided. the sole
evidence of their right to enter the
United States, and mdnifeStly the QueS-
ton involved as to whether the act
should be construed in the view of the
treaties is one of gravity and impOr
lance. and involves matter of interna--
tional concern. The case, it holds has
no connection with the Chinese case
heretofore decided and relied upon to
exclude Bew, for the reason that in that
case the man was fabOrer and not a
merchant. The court is, therefore, of
the opinion that sufficient grounds are
shown for writ of certiOari, and that
writ should be issued"

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-In the SUI
preme court of the District of Columbia
today the demurrer in the caSe of The
United States against Charles A. New
ton, charged with violating section IL of
the civil service act, was unanimously
oyerruled and the case went to the
criminal court for trial. Defendant
gave notice that he would apply for a
writ Of error.
Commissioner Thompson, of the civil
service commission, was seen and ques-
toned as to his views upon the de-
cision. He said that the supreme
court of the United States in the
ease of Newton NJ. Curtis held that the
law fOlbidding government employees
10 solicit or receive from each other
money for political purposes was con-
stiJutional, but the decision rendered
today goes much further and holds that
all solicitations Tor political purposes
within government buildings are I'M
lawful. The effect, he thought, will be
to practically stop political assessments
and 10 leave all government employees
free to contribute Oh not as they see fit.
This decision is a complete vindicatiOn
of the course of the commission, which
has cndeavOred to enforce the law and
protect government employees from
forced assessments. 1t is entirely salts
factory to the commission.

ON TO WASHINGTON,
Minister Porter Alleged to Be
Home on Business


New YORK. Nov. 16.-Gov. Porter.
minister to Italy, arrived on the steamer
NOrmannia today on sixty days leave of
absence. He has not been in Rome
Siuce June, and probably will not re-
turn there until the Italian government
is represented in Washington by min
lister. lie refused to discuss the New
Orleans affair, further than to say that
he had been treated with the utmost
courtesy by King Humbert. the prime
minister and all other Italians with
whom he came i'll contact.
After few hours stop. Mr.. Porter
proceeded OIL a fast express to Washing
ton. This sudden and unexpected ar
rival leads many to believe that he has
| been hurrledly summoned to Washing
ton TO confer with the president aud
the secretary of state on the present
situation OF the controversy with Italy
growing out of the Malta troubles in
New Orleans. 1t is more than probable
that Italy has taken advantage of the
J trouble between the United States and
| Chill TO make demand for an apology
and an indemnity for the killing of two
/ Of her subjects in New Orleans. Min
lister Porter refused to give any reason
! for his haSty and secret trip to Wash
ihgtOB.
,, WASHINGTOS. Nov l6.-Minister Por
/ ter did not call at the department of
! state today. He was granted leave of
| absence. with permission to visit the
United States, so his visit to Washing
ton IS regarded to have no special sig
niicance, as it is customary for minis
tiers on their return from abroad to call
and pay their respects to the secretary
of state, and receive any instruc-
tons he may wish to give them. The
department of state has had no CORE
spondence with the Italian government
in connection with the New Orleans af-
fair for some time, and the rumor that
Italy has sent an ultimdtum is discred-
tied here.
