OTHER NOTED WOMEN.
Said Julia Ward Howe: ''With this
larger liberty comes larger moral outlook.
To the proper solution OF the marriage
question, all other problems are really sec
ondary. This progress of women is going
to solve it. The ideal marriage Is one based
upon mutual liberty and equality. Only
independent human beings can form a
union such as marriage should be-
Such are the opinions of some OF the noted

others are equally interesting. Ellen Diet2

so LIKE HIS FATHER.
The artist-illustrator, w. A. Rogers, of
Hdrper's Weekly is a thin, boyish looking
young man who may possibly weigh 100
pounds after hearty meal, and whose
dark, slightly mustached face refuses to re-
cord his years. He once ran some rapids
on the Housatonic river with his canoe, by
the safe if unromantic method Of carting
the boat around by means of the friendly
aid of a farmer and his yoke OF oxen. His
companion, L. w. Seayey, the scenic artist,
waited long time at the foot of the rapids
for the outfit to appear. When at last the
numbering cart put in an appearance the
farmer, g grizzled veteran of sixty, halted
his oxen by the river band and, laying both
horny hands on Rogers shoulders, gazed
with emotion into his face.
excuse me, sir,n he said with trembling
voice. ''out you remind me so much OF my
poor father who's been dead and gone these
five years that don't seem to bear to let We
go. Fve been watchin' We all the way; and
We do favor him in the allfredest way. Let
me look at We once more afore We start"
At least Mr.. Seavey swears it.
SUPERINTENDENT MURRAY's ILLNESS.
It is good while since New York has
had really efficient superintendent of
police in active service. Walling. who is
now a CHEEKY old farmer, was Tor a long
time before his retirement practically a
tigurehead and past his prime. He was so
bucolic in his appearance that bunco man
once actually endeavored to make him his
prey almost within hail of police headquar-
tiers, supposing him to be dear old friend
| from Wayback Corners. Superintendent
| Murray is thorough policeman, but is in
very bad health He returned few weeks
ago from a six months leave of absence,
spent largely in Europe, but is now on the
police sick list and has not reported for
duty. 1t looks as if he had broken down
entirely, and if so the commissioners can
not too soon pension him and promote In
| spector Byrnes, the most famous, and by
rogues the most dreaded, of modern police
officers.
Murray has ''Parkinsons disease from
which nobody ever RECEIVERS.
PHRASES FINE.
Two excellent phrases have recently i'm.
pressed themselves upon my memory; the
one in a lady's letter announcing that she
was in the flood tide of prosperity. ''In,
deed" she wrote, 1.-The goose never, appar
entity, approximated a greater altitude in
the empyrean than at the present moment
The other phrase was uttered by weary
auctioneer who was trying to impress upor
a roomful of unappreciative folks the mer
its of picture. Consider" he said i'm
pressively, "the great distinction conferred
by the superlative excellence of this mag
nifcent specimen of the celebrated artist:
most inimitable work"

II would HURT His Reputation.

Shortly before the last horse show a well
known millionaire bought pair of mag
nificent horses, which were thought by him
to be the most perfect in Chicago. He de-
termined to enter them in the horse show,
and as his coachman was negro he went
to one of his friends and asked him for the
loan of his man. This was willingly grant
ed, and the next day the coachman went
down to the exposition building to see the
horses. He inspected them gravely and
critically. and when he had finished turned
to the millionaire and said:
Him VERY sorry. sir, but I cawn't
drive them losses, sir. You'll ave to geb
some one else, sir"
"Why," exclaimed the gentleman in sur
prise, whats the matter?"
''You see, SIR" the coachman replied,
"their tails isn't locked"
"What difference does that make?"
HWhat difference does that make?" SAID
the coachman. Hit makes bloomin' lot
Of difference. Hi couldn't pawsibly drive

A STORY OF GETTYSBURG

New YORK, March Is, 1S91.-[Special
correspondence of The HERALD. One Of
the best known OF our artists had, when he
was little boy, blowgun or tube in the
use of which he was fatally proficient. He
lived at the tinre ID a little country town
and the house Of the next door neighbor
was pretty close to his home. One autumn
day, being armed with his tube, he happened
to spy big pan of pumpkin filling all ready
to be put into pies, standing in the neigh
boris pantry window. The window was
open, and the boy knew where to look for a
big box of cathartic pills. These he OBJ
tanned and blew through tire tube one after
another with unerring aim into the pan,
where they promptly dissolved. The pies
were made and baked, and almost immedi-
ately thereafter, the entire family partaking
of them was thrown into the widest sort of
panic The doctor came at gallop,
emetics were administered and there was
talk of having a pumpkin sample analysed
to detect the mysterious poison, when the
thoroughly frightened boy made confess
sion. The alarm subsidized, the analysis
project was given up and the boy was made
to experience a sudden distaste for blow
pipe practice.
Of course, it would not be fair 10 say who
the artist is whose youth was so distin-
guished, but have heard Hamilton Gibson,
the author illustrator, tell the story with
! keen relish

A STORY OF GETTYSBURG.

A story Of Gettysburg which has not been
in print seems almost like an impossibility,
yet am pretty certain that the following
incident has never seen the light: When
the tremendous cannonade which preceded
Pickett's great charge was going on and the
troops of Hancock's column were lying fiat
upon the ground in the sitting July heat, a
young soldier of the Second Vermont Bri-
gade, whose appropriate name is Allen,
though l do not know if he is descendant
of the redoubtable Ethan, left the ranks
walked back hundred yards where the
shells were fyine thickest filed his canteen
at spring. came back to the line and slow
| ly passed along it, giving to each man in his
company a few drops. Then he dropped
back into his place entirely uuhurt. A few
minutes afterwards, while comparatively
in the shelter, he received a wound which
has famed him for life.
| While getting the water and passing il
about, Mr.. Allen says he felt no fear what
ever. but as soon as he was wounded he re
allied the danger of the situation and wa.
[ mortally afraid of being killed until Stan
nard's charge shattered Pickett's splendid
column, and the tide of battle ebbed bach
from where he lay.

human being is complex instrument, and
the tuning your life to another requires the
master musician hand. Since so-called
progress began, that is the physical and
mental struggle for supremacy, there has
been discord in this sex relation. Now we
are demanding somewhat of melody. BY
and by marriage will rise to a universal
harmony and this Is the love that will be the
fullllment of the law. True marriage is a
perfect mating upon the three planes
physical, mental and spiritual. At the
present stage men have the greater mental,
women the higher spiritual development.
Women must acquire the mental hardwood
OF men and men must reach higher splr
ltual plane. If man may be called the mind
of the world, woman is its SOUL put they
must be in harmony. Marriage must mean
companionship. There must be one stand
ard of fidelity. Wifehood and motherhood
must be voluntary. Marriage must be free !;
freely bound to its own; free within the
law of God and involving the perpetual,
chaste and sacred union of one man and
one woman authorized by the law, blessed
by the church of God. When | was taken
from my free life on the farm and brought
out socially under the restrictions of a con-
yentonal social atmosphere, l realized the
unnatural channel into which the world
forced the body and soul of woman. l was
bodily trammeled, laced, pinched, tied and
restricted; and mentally l was overshad-
owed. hampered and distorted by conyen-
tial rules and Miss Grundy. To be free
bodily was hoydenish, to have opinions was
masculine, to have aspirations other than
for husband and children was unwomanly:
1t was the secret pain caused in an ardent
but very timid and self-contained person
atty by this sudden transition from the
freedom of nature to the prison of the
world, that led me to dedicate my life tC
the emancipation of woman, and the ad
vancement of His gospel who is the best
friend that women ever knew"

THE MAN BEHIND.

Whenever l see a public project not of
money grabbing kind making big advances
| generally conclude that somewhere out of
sight one man is pushing along all the peo-
pie who are working to further it, and that
their activity Is largely communicated to
them by him.
| The man behind the Brooklyn Institute,
who has lifted it in very short space of
time from a sort of moribund debating
society where respectable elderly people
went to sleep one evening week and
imagined they were improving their minds,
into live organization, full of present use
fulness and future promise, is Prof. Frank
| lin w. Hooper.
There is something marvellous about the
energy of the man. No one knows when he
eats sleeps or earns his livelihood. Appar-
entity he is always either buttonholing a
wealthy man for life subscription, doing
the work of some celebrated fgurehead
president of department, lobbying for
legislative aid or municipal appropriations,
planning the future museums and art gal
leries of the institute, or otherwise hard at
work in its behalf He is tall, STOPPING,
awkward lump of man, with face which
seems rather heavy in repose, but lights up
wonderfully when in conversation.
The institute will occupy buildings near
Prospect park, not one of which is yet cree
ted. There will be art galleries, science
ildDOrdlOrleS, lcCGuEe udllS, DOJdnlCdl anu
horticultural grounds. There will be mem
bers by the thousands and facilities for
work and study in every department OF
human learning. Already, before the in
stitute has SO much as single building it
has large and active membership and de-
partments of chemistry, mineralogy, Ian
guages, art, photography, history, architec-
ture, astronomy, political and economical
science, zoology, mathematics and more
than dozen others. Some remarkably
interesting things are always going on.
The Geographical Exhibition, now in the
height of it's success, is one of the most en-
pertaining and instructive shows ever seen
in any city in America.
People everywhere, who regard Brooklyn
as sort of overgrown village, will perhaps
be surprised in ten years to learn that its
citizens have the finest museum privileges
in the country, and the nucleus of great
university if it is thought advisable to
found one.

A coNGREssMAN's DAUGHTER.

Mrs. Harriet Taylor Upton, the daughter
of Judge b, B. Taylor OF Ohio, and one of
the Worlds fair female managers, said:
'rrhis new departure Of women may de-
crease the number of bad marriages, but it
will make wiser and better ones. Men are
even yet little inclined to resent this new
independence They cling to the idea that
love must fade or be spoiled by it. That
marriage will be less beautiful relation
when woman is something more than a
pet, and dependent clinging child. They
mistake also our demand for political equal
ity as desire to follow mans methods and
steal his perquisites. We care very little
for the brass hands and torch lights of pol
tics, we care less for Offices. What we
women hope most from political equality, is
equalization of pay and the opportunities
for individual life that men enjoy.n
RACHEL FOSTER AvERY's EXPERIENCE.
''My marriage may be quoted as result
of suffrage training on both sides,m said
Rachel Foster Avery, secretary of the Ma
tional Woman's Suffrage association.
Both my husband and myself were born
and reared in antislavery and woman's
rights families. His mother is a devoted
suffrage worker, while my father was the
first man in the country to pay woman
printers, salaries equal to men. At the
age of twelve | wrote my first womau's
rights essay, and the same year, Mr. Avery
then boy of sixteen, wrote similar one
in college. We were introduced years later
through suffrage convention, that is by a
letter from mutual friend in attendance.
/ had long before this, become used to the
idea of old-maidenhood. Very liberal home
training had made me fastidiops. Being
fond of children, L had legally adopted a
little orphan girl and planned my life with
out reference to marriage. That introduc-
ton, however, brought man whose life
and purposes were similar to my own, and
after adopting a domestic platform of love,
liberty and equality, we served notice upon
our friends that the third party had de-
clared its principles. The Rev. Anna Shaw,
Methodist, postponed couple of suffrage
meetings and came on to Philadelphia to
perform the ceremony. She was assisted

mans progress does interfere with mar
riage. 1t makes girls fastidious. In New
York two thirds of the unemployed women
marry, while over one half of the school
teachers remain single. This, said Mr..
Jasper superintendent of public schools, is
because a sensible young woman isn't ex-
changing a certain $50 for an uncertain
young man. Nor is this independent or
emancipated woman to lose her attractive
ness. Higher education, finer thoughts and
equal rights will not obliterate, but rather
add to youth and beauty. Charm and grace
of manner will then be properly supported
and the man of the future may count upon
having companion as well as wife"

The wife of one Of the best known wall

The ordinary wall paper is printed upon
cylindrical rollers, varying in size accord

borders are printed upon fiat strips of wood,
whose designs also stand boldly out. OF
course the cutting of these cylinders and
strips is quite expensive, but when the pat
terms become old fashioned they are no
longer useful. This lady has taken large

The Rev. Anna B. Shaw. president Of
the Wimodaughsis, national lecturer for
the sufragist organization, when questioned
said without hesitation:
II have no doubt but that this emancipa-
ton of woman, political mental and indus

marriage. 1t will tend to decrease the
number of bad marriages. 1t will increase
the number of happy ones. just so long as
men continue to marry their mental in

feriors, marriage will be unequal and I'M
