Butler's..''woman Order

One of the most interesting chap
ters in Ben Buffers "Book" is that
which treats of his famous woman
order. 1t will be remembered that
when Butler first entered the captured
city OF New Orleans his officers and
soldiers were subjected to the most
outrageous insults at the hands OF the
women, who depended upon their sex
to protect them. In every possible
way they indicated aversion, disgust,
and adherence at the sight oil one OF
the boys in blue. They quilted q
horse-car as Don as a soldier entered;
they drew their skirts away, or even
stepped of the sidewalk when they
met an officer on the street; they spat
at soldiers from windows, and even
spat in t~heirfaces when they met them.
On one Sunday, as an officer on But
ler's staff was on-his way % church,
he met two ladies, and as he turned
toward the outer side Of the sidewalk
to let them pass one OF them stepped
acros in front OF the other and DELHI
erately spat in the officers face.
"Why didn't you do something?"
Indignantly demanded a fellow-member
of his staff when told the incident.
"What could | do two women? ?"
"Well, you ought to have taken
your revolver and shot the first he
rebel you met"
Gen. Butler thought long and seri.
ously on this matter and the best
means of checking it. 1t would only
make matters worse to arrest the
women-for that was Just what they
would have gloried in. 1t was neces-
sary to hit upon some order that
would execute itself. Finally he put
forth his order. 1t provided that
"when any female shall, by word,
gesture or movement, insult Oh show
contempt for any officer or soldier OF
the United States she shall be re-
garded and held liable to betreated as
a woman OF the town plying her voca-
ton"
Thatorder executed itself. No arrest
was ever made under it or because OF
it. Butler says in his "Book": "AlI
the ladies i'm New Orleans forebore to
insult our troops because they didn't
want to he deemed common women
and all the common women forbore
to insult our troops because they
wanted to be deemed ladies; and oil
those two classes were all the women
secessionists of the city.'-Ben But
ler's Autobiography.

Wise Thoughts.

Strong faith in human beings is the
strongest faith in God.
Children are taught more than they
ever learn, and learn more than they
are ever taught.
Sufficient INTO the day is the evil
thereof; but sufficient unto a lifetime
is often the evil OF a single day.
1t is only in looking on death that
We comprehend Immortality, and only
utter WEAKNESS that gives promise OF
perfect rest.
When it is said of a man that he
treats men and women Just alike, you
may be sure he treats them all as il
they were men.
Wisdom, like many other human at.
tributes, is only for the time. We are
wise today that tomorrow We may
look back and say: "How foolish we
were!"-Mary Ainge De We're in the
Ladies Home Journal.
