official are two separate and distinct in
dividuals. The woman who stands upon
the platform, or who speaks from the
floor of convention, is the representa-
tive of principle or an idea, and she is
nothing more. 1t is of paramount i'm
portance to her audience and to the pre-
siding officer that her enunciation should
be distinct; that her views be strongly
clearly and concisely presented; that her
rhetoric and her grammar should attain
the highest standard of established usage
But her private idiosyncrasies, her
physical inf rmities, her tending to emo
ton or hysteria, bear no rightful place
or consideration in any phase of the
proceedings of a deliberative body. 1t
is not worth while to resort to spectacu-
lar effects or melodramatic methods for
the purpose of emphasizing and making
apparent distinctions of SEX No well
bred, well dressed woman who speaks
and conducts herself with dignity and
modCsty will ever be mistaken for other
than she is.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

Musical Living Chess.

A recent musical living chess tourna-
ment showed the kings and queens in
gorgeous costumes-exactr reproductions
of the Tudor period. The kings were in
crimson satin and gold and white and
gold respectively, with gold crowns and
scepters. The queens wore petticoats of
gold brocade with court trains of white
and of Grin son. The bishops were in
white and red satin, with long copes and
miters and bishops crooks. The castles
and pawns were in similar style, crimson
and white with gold and silver caps.
AS spectacle living chess is more at
tractive than living whist, the intricacies
of the latter game not being so amenable
to representation as those of the former.
Slow, statelJ' movement to minuet music
is permissible at the chess delineations,
making succession of beautiful ta-
bleaux entirely Ineligible to the prog
ress of the game. Actually to follow the
play at living whist game would take
the skill of Hoyle, Pole and Cavendish
combined.-Her Point of View in New
York Times.
