In America, according to Mrs. Ken
dal's idea, it is the women who manage
everything-at least in regard to the
theaters. "From the first moment that
you act before an American audience
you realize that your business is to
please the women. The women decide
whether they like you, and they decide
81 once, and it is the women who de-
eide whether the men shall go to the
play or not. They go the matlnees, and
il they are satisfied they propose going
again with the gentlemen of the family
I remember once we acted TO an audi
ence of 700 women and one man, and
when that man came in the women SOL
emnly made way for him to pass.
Women govern the world, as have al
ways maintained, but nowhere do they
govern so obviously as in America.
A sensation has been caused in Rus
siad administrative circles by the atti-
tude of the Zemstvo Of Staritsa in the
province OF Sver. One of the members
stigmatzeS the exclusive right Of men
to take part in public affairs as unjust
and immoral, and proposes to grant the
same privileges to women as TO men in
the administration of atfoirs, which SEN
timent-Quite foreign to Russian ideas
was formally approved and recorded
by the ZemStvo. Another interesting
bit of news relative to wOman's prog
ress comes from the Cars domin-
ion. One Of the Russian universities has
offered to bestow a certificate for yeter-
mary surgery, and young woman can
/ mi nVFn q m
Miss D0brOwoilskaji, who has already
studied veterinary surgery at Zurich,
has presented herself. Thelady is the
daughter of landowner in the Govern
ment OF Chevson, and has been promised
an appointment by the State if she sue
ceeds in passing the examination. A
girl who has lived to years of maturity
with such a name will prOablY succeed
even in the most unfeminine occupation
Of veterinary surgery.
A model Of husbandly virtue, pa
thence and tolerance is his imperial Ma
jesty the Emp of Austria, His mel
ancholy Empress wife is left to follow
her own way and will in making sudden
and strange journeys, and TO indulge in
eccentricitieS which must puzzle even
this amiable spouse. Last year IT was
for house in Corfu with magnificent
environment, where she paced the gar
den walks conversing in Greek with her
Grecian tutor This year it is a SOjourn
In SpaIn with large and expensive
suite and apparently indefinite Lurpose.
Meanwhile her royal consort patiently
bides at home, where husbands ought
to stay, attending TO the numerous
court functions, through WEIGH he en-
dears himself to his people, and enter
tains the company his restless wife re-
fuses to stay at home to receive.
All women will rejoice to hear that
Queen Natalie, OF Servia, and her hus-
band have amicably settled their differ
ences and mutually retaken the mar
riage vows. The romantic version OF
the story sets forth that the Queen on
one Of her regular visits which the au-
thorties allow her to make TO her son
met her husband through the interven-
tioR OF the boy King, and directly the
allegiance Of the deposed King for his
early love returned The beauty of
this charming romance israther dimmed
by the rumor that the Russian Govern
ment, desiring Queen Natalie's influence
in Servia revivifed this early love with
the chink of Russian gold, but this may
be an invention Of the unpoetical ma
terialist
Nine. Patti is singing in Nice for
charity, she claims. She says that she
no longor sings for money, only for
amusement, and gives all her earnings
TO the poor The great diva is decided
ly opposed to the gambling which. so
many women OF her profession indulge
IN at Monte Carlo. She calls it the most
atrociouS thing woman can do. No
card playing is allowed at Craig-y-NOs,
where the buffers MARBLE madrlgals over
their silver and the maids trill arias at
their busting For, as most people
know, all the servants at the diva's cas-
tie are trained musicians, ready to lay
down their dish towels and busters and
take character parts on the stage OF her
pretty theatre. 1t is an expensive re-
tinue, for the parlor maid with musical
ability is as rare as the proveroial white
black bird. But single Home,
Sweet Home" before an American audi
ence represents enough golden eagles
to foot the bills OF even a musical house
hold for twelvemonth.
A Good Reason.
