WOMAN'S WORLD.
AN ARGUMENT AGAINST WOMAN's
SUFFRAGE THAT IS NOT SOUND

A Japanese Girl student-The Rights Of
Women-The Divided skirt on Horse
beek-aTiss PhiIbrOole's Application De-
nied-wOman's Foot Growing Larger.
One of the strong arguments used by
the opponents of woman s rights is that
she is not mechanical, and that women
have done nothing to contribute to the
comfort of the labor saving devices that
are used even in their own homes
Whatever truth there may have been in
this objection, we cannot see where ii
applies against suffrage. 1t is evident,
however, that women are entering that
field which men have hitherto claimed
as exclusively their own. We see by the
latest English patent reports that even
in Great Britain women are entering
the departments of the mechanical arts
with success. Mrs. Maria Goltz Of Lon
don has recently taken out patent foI
a very valuable Improvement in cook
ing stoves. Miss Maria Kirchner of the
same city has secured a patent for an
improvement in such woven articles as
hats, shoe uppers, gloves and the like
Mrs. Susie Simmons of Kent has Sc
cured patents for an apparatus for pre-
railroads or of ordinary vehicles.
In America women have entered the
field of science as well equipped and
with as strong and correct a spirit of in
vestigation as the men. Already they
occupy a high position in the medical
profession, and old practitioners are no
longer afaid of losing caste by meeting
women doctors in consultation. Many
American women graduates are taking
a postgraduate course in biology and
the study of lower organic life. Higher
special work is largely confined at pres
ent to women of scholarly leisure and
liberal income. The best facilities for
pursuing these specialized studies are to
be had at Cambridge, Cornell, Bryn
Mawr and Johns Hopkins university.
All womens colleges n the country
are in close communication with the
bureaus of meteorology and astronomy in
Washington and the United States. 1t
is hattering to the sex and to the men
who admire them to know that college
bred women are employed as cOmputors
in the observatOries of Harvard and
Yale and III the Naval observatory at
Washington The facts that led to Pro-
fessor Pickering's late theory as to dou-
BILE stars were the discovery of Miss
Murray of Harvard. The sociological
problems of the day are evolzing special
lied search in domestic science and san
itation, the demonstrations of which
were to be seen at the Worlds fair in
the New York model workingmen' s
home 1t should be said in this connec-
ton that the advances made by women
have not been accomplished, as some
might believe, through the assistance
given by men, but rather in the face of
the most violent opposition. And SO we
say all hail to the advancement of intel
lectual women. New York Dispatch.

Tho Boy Always Escapes.

Officers Edmonson and Holden are tell,
ing a funny story on a man who conducts
an establishment near Tenth and Market
streets The man became infatuated with
a pretty widow who lives next door to his
place The two utilized the hydrant hose
by which to converse, for the man was de-
tanned at his place of business and the
widows sewing kept her up stairs. The
policemen say that the two spent a good
deal of their time talking through the rub
Der hose. They kept this up until last
Saturday afternoon. 1t was then that a
small boy adjusted a piece of hose from
the hydrant to the center of the improvised
telephone and watched for the takers to
resume their conversation. The policemen
were standing near when the boy turned
on the water. The stream struck the man
sQaarely in the ear, nearly knocking him
down and thoroughly drenching him and
his place of business. The woman, who
had been talking through the other end OF
the hose at the time, received the full force
of the water in her mouth 1t knocked
her down and nearly strangled her 1t
also spoiled her sewing material for that
day. The boy escaped Louisville Cou-

Miss PhiIBrooke's Application Denied.

Miss Mary Philbrooke Of Eoboken,
the first woman to apply to the New
Jersey supreme court for examination
for admission to practice as an attorney
at law, failed to receive the privilege
the other day. Justice Reed made the
announcement and later filed a short
opinion giving the reasons of the court
for its denial. The opinion says that
until the Legislature grants to women
the privilege of becoming attorneys at
law the weight of reason and authority
is against the existence of the right.
The Massachusetts, case, in which ad-
mission was refused TO Leila J. Robin
son in June, 1881, is referred to and
the conclusions concurred in In that
case it was held that the word ''citi-

and com prehensive sense, doubtless in
cludes women, but woman is not by

Mr.. Edmunds and the Supreme
Cpupt

There ere fcW lawyers in the country who
stand higher in the estimation of the justices
of the Supreme court of the United States
than cX Senator George F. Edmunda. and
evidences of this fact are continually COM
ing to light. When the case of the inter
state commerce commission against v. G..
Brunson, appealed from the Circuit court
for the northern district of Illinois, was
called up on Wednesday, Mr.. Edmund, cali
cd attention to the fact that inaamuch as
Mr.. IIorrhlowcrs nomination had not been
confirmed by the Senate, a full complement
of Justices was not an early probability. and
lie spoke of the advisublity Of postponinS a
hearing in the case from January g. the
date set, until such time as Il full bench
might be present and the Supreme court
Justices present concurred in his opinion.
That litigant, appreciate the position
which MIR. Edmunds occupies before the Su-
prcnc Court is evident from the following,
which is taken from the columns of the
Washington Post
Ex-senator Edmund, Of Vermont has
come down to Washington to argue the
California Land and Water company cn,e
before the supreme uurt, ana Is slppllnS

health than whom he left the Senate, and is
much stronger He is an instance rare in
deed, of the public man who voluntarily re
signed because he had mad enough of it,
His practice before tn" supreme Court is
worth over 500, 600 a year.
Nermonter1 have ample reason for being
proud of the distinguished ex-senator, and
they will all rejoice in these evidences of his
improved health, and his material prosper
ity. as well rs his rcnown in national legal
circles.

an incident would have been considered as
tantamount to n declaration of war, but
now, Judging from adviccs from London,
the effect most seriously dreaded is that it
may aggrayate the existing popular hostil-
ity between the two countries.
This hostility ON the part of Great Brit
ain during the critical phases of the Slain
csc difficulty, and the outbursts Of hatred Of
England in France, have been of n frothy
nature but it is plain that to-day John
Bulls blood is up and bclicose talk is the
burden of all English comment on the sub
iect 1t will not suffice for France to say
that the affair is an accident. According
to the present view she must apologize, cX-
plain the presence of her troops in the Brit
ish sphere of influence and pay a handsome
indemnity Whether France will do this
remain, to he sccn.
II she does not quiet the angry roars of
the British lion and is held responsible for
the revolution in Sicily, it would not be
strange if England aud the triple alliance
were TO be found pitied against Franco and
Russia in a general war

Ii it is true that the French government
is largely responsible for melting the in-ur-
rcction in Sicily, as j, alleged in German
and Italian circles. it j. not improbable that
serious results may follow. Relations be
tween France and Italy to a greater or less
degree ever since the French government
first furnished troops for the protection of
the Pope i'll Rome, and the bitter fcelin- be
tween the people seems only to increase in
intensity rs the Years roll ON. 1t is Il diff
cult matter to prove the partcpa-
ton Of a government in revolution within
the domains of n neighhuriug power. for
the reason that its representatives are uSu-
ally careful to cover their steps but the ON
issal.cs OF the French government do notnD-
pear to have taken any particular pains to
conceal their connection with the present
trouble in Sicily, if the reports are correct:
and the suspicion arises that France has
taken this means to bring about an open
rupture between the two countries. If this
was the case, it will of course be difficult
matter to avert hpstihtic,
The significance of war between France
and Italy at this time is plain 1t would

In view of the important part which New
York plays in all national elections, the
whole country is materially interested in the
efforts which are being made t. guard
against election frauds in the Empire State,
aud the duty which the new republican
Legislature has in this direction can not well
be over-estmated. Fair-minded democrats
as well rs republicans freely express their in
dignation over the frauds which have been
porpctrated in some of the larger cities i'll
the State, and the republicans in the Legis-
lature win have the moral support Of a large
proportion Of the people in amy fair attempt
which they may make TO guard against
frauds at the polls in the future.
An important means to thi, end is the
proper constitution of boards of election in
spectors, and it is more than probable that
there will he legislation with reference to
this subject, and especially the boards of
election inspectors of New York city. For
merly each party had an equal representa-
ton among the inspectors in New York city,
but when the democrats captured the Legis-
laturo one of the first things they did was to
change the law so as to give Tammany a
