THERESA OF BAVARIA.
FOR WOMEN IN GERMANY
WHAT TIE PROFESSORS sAY-A NEW SCHOOL
FOR WOMEN.

Princess Theresa Of Batavia. the only daughter OF
the present Regent Of that country, who recently
elected an honorary member OF the Bavarian Academy
OF Sciences ranks BY right among the learned women
OF Europe. No similar honor TO that conferred by
the Swans Of Munich ever given 10 woman In
Germany. The majority OF the leaders OF thought In
the Fatherland unfortunately still have medieval ideas
regarding the intellectual powers OF women. Cndc
niable proofs OF the mental equality-or superiority
Of the gentler sex lost upon the wiscacres who
fill the chairs In the Institutions OF learning. For
quarter OF n century women have been knocking In
vain at the doors OF the universities. At every new
request on the part OF woman for admission, the
gray haired high orcheaded shoudercd professors
descend from their book lined towers-wherc, among
dusty foos they spend their days apparently regard
less OF modern times and pr0gresssit In solemn con-
clave about the round official table and decide in the
negative. I" Women still unequal TO men, they
say. "They cannot be intrusted with the wisdom OF
the ages Their frail backs would break under the
weight Of learning. They have not the physical
strength to devote themselves to science Perhaps In

A Birds Eye View Of Dahomey.

Although previously but little known
to outsiders, Dahomey has been brought
by tue recent French invasion into the
light of the worlds attention. 1t will,
therefore, be timely to call to mind some
Of the more important features of this
African State, few of which are here
gwen:
"Dahomey, situated on the western
coast of Africa, comprises an area of 1000
square miles, aud reaches from the Yor-
uba States on the east to Ashanti on the
western boundary, which is marked by
the river Volta. On the north lies the
Waugera territory. Once the largest and
most powerful kingdom on the slave
coast, it has been greatly reduced by
long and disastrous wars with neighbor-
ing States. Its population is estimated
at $50, 900. The capital is Abomey, in
the interior, and its seaport is Whydah,
seventy miles away.
"The monarchy, founded early in the
Seventeenth Century, is of an absolute
type, King Behanzin maintaining, be-
sides ordinary soldiery, the now famous
body guard of 5000 Amazons, or female
troops, who are we'll disciplined and
formidable warriors. The natives, who
are fetish worshipers and of pure Afri-
can blood, are industrious farmers, pro,
ducing aud exporting maize, cattle,
ivory, India rubber and the best palm
oil made in Upper Guinea. The hostili-
ties with France first began in 1890,
arising from the disputed stations, on the
South coast, of Porto Novo and Kotonu.
A peace was concluded in October of
that. year, but lasted only until this sum
mer."
In spite of their extreme barbarism the
Dahomeyans were found by the French
to possess the arms Of modern warfare.
They have been accustomed to practice
cruel outrages upon travellers and mis-
sionaries in the past, and their subjuga-
ton by France, after most stubborn
resistance, is a matter of congratulatiou
to the civilized world. Mail and Elk.
