|woMsNs EXCITEMENT OVER WOMAN


Helen wattorson Says Wemen's Wrongs
Are Aggravated BY Too Much Talk.
Whatever ameliorafion the condition Of
women may need today, it is not to be ac-
complished by going into rhetorical or ex-
ecutive session about IL. Tho Individual
wrongs from Which individual women are
suffering are not, alasi to be righted by
papers in congresses, and the sex wrongs
from which all women arc supposed to be
suffering are only aggravated by being
made the subject of excessive considera-
ton.
Take, for example, the one wrong Of
which women complain with most sharp
ness and most justice-unequal payment
for equal work. Anything that helps to
emphasize the fact that women arc new
Corners in any field OF. work tends directly
to lower the wages ofthat work; anything
that helps to arouse the prejudices Of men
and SO keeps up unfair discrimination
against women workers tends directly to
depress wages; anything that introduces a
false distinction into work-and the sex
distinction Is false one-will lower wages;
any sentimental consideration that serves
to obtrude the fact that women are not
equal to men in units OF horsepower is sure
to lower wages. The fact is, women work
ers are ut a considerable physical disadvan-
tage in comparison with men. and the less
said about it the better.
So it is with other favorite themes Of dis
lcussion among women. The less said, for
example, in declaration Of wonan's rights
and in gloritication of her achievements the
better for both rights and achievements.
The strongest assertion of right is the as
sumption OF it, and the only proof OF equal
lily Of work is equality of work.
Now, all these and many other things like
them are the stuff of which wonen's con-
gressional discussions are made, and they
all serve charmingly to keep alive that in
tangible something called the "Woman's
Question Of which men are already very
tired, and of which women ought to be.
For men have already risen, with the
wonderful multiplication within the last
few years of powers and activities common
to both sexes, to recognize the fact that
work is neuter noun, and that so far as
women workers are concerned the chivalry
of disrcgarding their Sex is greater than
the chivalry OF recognizing it. Both men
and women were equally culpable in tho
sex consciousness of two centuries ago.
Today it is women and not men who are
responsible for it.-IIelen WatLerson in
Forum,

The insolvency of Isaac c. Atkinson,

some time ago and which hoaxed L.
ID. Il. Sutton and Levi Ii. Miller of
this city mude several concerns hero
his creditors Tho Delaware Bank
holds 5000 in notes against Atkinson.
The Security Trust and Safe Deposit
Company is also said to hold 5000 in
notes. Inc last statement could not
be verified, as t. II. Hofreckor, attor-
ney, is not In tho city.
The Delaware Bank claim Is an In.

that notes were held by the Union

New YoRK, Oct. 13.-The third, and,
II the vigl!ant ls successful. the last
race for Americas cup. was sailed
this morning over the fifteen mile
course to windward. The race was q
different course from that onMonday,
the course being two legged one.
The clipping process the English
yacht was subjected to In England
short while before she started across
the Atlantic Id now regarded as mis-.
take, SO ton or so OF lead was added
yesterday. This was taken on board
In scows and placed amidshlps, 1t Is
said. and 1t was supposed 1t would
put her lower in the water.
THE START.
This morning there was some slight
which kept tho
yachts back until 1925. Steamers
had crowded into tho course and liz
was with difficulty that the police
boats could keep 1t clear. The one
gun signal had been sounded OF 11.15
O'Clock, but tho yachts could not pro-
coed.
At 1925 the yachts passed over the
line with a 24.mlle an hour breeze
from the southeast. They had all sails
set. THIS was just such breeze as
Lord Dunraven wished for, but 1t
again looks as II he was to be beaten
in his own weather. From the start,
tho Vigilant increased her speed and
at o'clock was leading. leaving the
Yalkyrie rapidly in her wake.
At o'clock tho Valkyrle overlook
the Vigilant. They sailed side by
side for five minutes. when the yalky.
rle pissed the American yacht.
AT l.15 O'clock the valkyrie was
leading with one length to spare.
The English yacht did not lmiintain
her lead very long. for at i.20 o'clock
the Vigilant again passed her. Az I.3O
O'Clock she had increased her speed,
and wns half mile In tho lead.
At9 o'clock the Vgilant passed the
stake boat. The Nalkyrie was but
few lengths bohind Tho Is miles was
covered in hours. SO minutes. The
race will be finished in the time limit.
1t will be the closest race OF the series.
Valkyrie has good chance Of winning
her first race.
A heavy fog hangs over the sea and
it has become wild. The yachts can.
not be ssen but short distance. This
requires extra prscaution on the part
OF the skiDpers and crews OF both
yachts.
