Progressive Frenchwomen,


son recent trip through France l
was forcibly struck by the manner in
which women are forging to the front in
that country" said T. E. Lsvan, Of Bos-
ton. statistics show that France leads
all the countries of Europe in the en-
ployment of women. Most of the ac-
countants and bookkeepers in French
shops are females whose salaries range
from three to ten dollars a week, accord
ing to proficiency and the size of the
establishment in which they work. A
peculiar phase of the employment of
these women is that most of them save
their earnings very carefully, in order to
buy an interest in the business. This
inclination is always encouraged by the
proprietors, inasmuch as it is the general
opinion that part ownership induces
greater fidelity on the part of the clerks" "

MAJ. sem.. sI: min. lem. 51.

A demonstration lecture on bread and
pastry will be given at the cooking
school, 55l Broadway, on Tuesday morn
ING at 10 r'clock. Admission 25 cents.
All who are interested are invited to be
present.
The Clerks association has succeeded
in inducing all the clothing, furnishing
goods and shoe stores in the city to close
early. A public mass meeting will be
held June 9th to endorse the plea OF
the clerks for shorter hours and to edu-
cate the public to do their traffi ikcing
during the day. The Clerks associa-
ton meets tonight in Y. M. 1. hall, 11511a
North Main street.
The following named gentlemen, mem
bers Of the Young Mems Blaine club,
have been appointed to confer with the
Union league and Lincoln clubs in re-
gard to the Republican ratification meet
ing to take place in this city at the close
of the Minneapolis convention: j. d.
Fennessy, J. @. Murray, HI. d. Bleeker,
J, H. Mellette, j. D. Fredericks and D..
B. Ferner. The conference will be held
at the Union league rooms at IL 80 to-
day.
The concert, under the management
of Prof. A. G. Gardner, for the benefit
of the cathedral choir fund, at Turn
verein hall. last night, was not as well
attended as it deserved to be on account
of the merit of the artists who partici-
pated in it and because of the excellent
object of the undertaking. An excel
lent programme had been prepared,
which was thoroughly relished by the
audience. Among those who took part
in the concert were DR.. Fernandez, Mrs.
l. B. Dockweiler, H. G. Portway, Mrs.
David Mckay, the Cotton children,
Profs. Gardner and Romandy, Mr.. J. F.
Nuelle, and Mines. Schellens hiedt.
Gardner and Stansbury. Miss Cecilia
Gardner was piauiste.
'On tie occasion of Pentecost yesterday
Haydn's first mass in B fiat was sung at

The vocalists were Misses Emilia Santa
Cruz and O'Kane, sopranos; Miss Del
phiha Santa Cruz, contralto; A. E. Han
rahan, tenor; Adolph Falk, w. F. Price
and N. Lamb, bassos. The string in
struments were in the hands of T. L.
Tomasevich, first violin; v. R. Musso,
second violin; and @. w. Stephens. At
the offertory Millard's Veni Creator was
rendered exquisitely by the quartette
consisting of Misses Emilia and Del

Nearly $500 Immigrants ON One Ship.

Nearly "soOO AHm MIGRANTS On One Snlps
There came to Baltimore recently the
largest number of immigrants ever
landed from one ship in any port of
America from foreign land. When
the steamer Oldenburg, Captain Gathe-
man, from Bremen, was made fast at
Baltimore and Ohio pier 8, Locust
Point, 2,493 men, women and children
came over the gangplank into their
adopted country. They were hardy,
respectable looking throng. Schumacher
& Co., agents of the ship, paid 81, ,246.5 so
to the custom service as the per capita
tax upon the immigrants. There were
not over 200 among the immigrants who
had not been born in Germany. About
100 were Russians, and a few were
Scandinavians.
The nearest approach to the number
brought by the Oldenburg was 2,430
immigrants landed here in April, 1891,
by the Weimar.-Baltimore Sun.

Langtry's Empty HouSe.


Two signboards hang On Mrs. Mrs Lang
try's house in West Twenty third street,
near Ninth avenue, imploring the passer-
by to rent that famous ediice. But the
passerby continues to pass by and does
not rent, although these signs have
hung there begging for six months or
more that something be done. How
many months more they will hang there
with tears in their eyes, as we may say,
no one can guess. Neither can any one
guess why the Lily's residence is so diff
cult to rent-at least no one does. The
house is three story, red brick, stand
ing back from the street, with high
walls on either side to obstruct the view
of the too curious and slightly imper-
tinent neighbors. This improvement
was made after Mrs. Langtry bought
the house and had been occupying it
herself. There is a carriage way with
an arched entrance at one side of the
house. and in many respects it has the
appearance of a comfortable English
homestead.
And yet not even those who affect the
English-and we have great many of
them here-are disposed to humor their
fad by taking the Langtry house. The
decorations of the rooms, which were
done under Mrs. Langtry's personal SUI
pervision, are beautiful and expensive
and testify to her excellent taste in dec
oratiye art. which has, l think, reached
higher degree of perfection than either
her taste or ability in the matter of his
trionic art. But that isn't the point.
The Lily has an expensive house in town
that is white elephant on her fair
hands because two pleading signboards
fail to find her tenant for it.-John A.
Cockerill in New York Recorder.

Monkeys Might BE Made Useful,

Monkeys could be used in certain cases
of fire, where expert climbing might be
required; they could be used as messen-
gers to some extent, and tn do many light
chores for man. They could be taught
to destroy many vicious insects, such as
tobacco worms, cutworms, cabbage
worms and many others. They could
be taught to do many things on a farm,
and | think long domestication would
develop many fields of usefulness for
them.-New York Independent.

The Baby's Guardian.

A gentleman in Connecticut took not
long ago collie from the Lothian kennels
at Stepney. The dog, after the fashion Of
its kind, soon made himself one of the
family, and assumed special responsible
ties in connection with the youngest child
a girl three years of age. 1t happened one
day in November that the father was re-
turning from a drive, and as he neared his
house he noticed the dog in pasture
which was separated 10y stone wall from
the road. From behind this wall the collie
would spring up, bark and then jump
down again, constantly repeating it.
Leaving his horse and going to the spot, he
found his little girl seated on stone, with
the collie wagging his tail and keeping
guard beside her
In the light snow their path could be
plainly seen, and rs he traced it back he
saw where the little one had walked sew
eral times around an open we'll in the pas
ture. Very close to the brink were the
prints of the baby shoes, but still closer on
the edge of the well Were the tracks of the
collie, which had evidently kept between
her and the well need not tell you the
feelings of the father as he saw the fidelity
of the dumb creature, walking between
the child and what might otherwise have
been q terrible death.-Our Dumb Ami
