SPLIT ON WoMAy SUFFRAGE.

wv - 80 fNNNN
Civil war IL raging in Utopia. The Washing
ton c operative colony, which left Spokan- last
spring aud went down into Klickitat county to
teach the wicked wasteful world a lesson in i'm
proved social economy, was only made up Of
common mortais after all, each with a great
deal ot human nature to the cubic inch. And
they know II now.
The brief accounts In letters TO Spokane have
plenty OF force. but Lac. details OF just how the
suffrage did IL. From the very first there were
one or two members Of the colony who objected
to, mixing experiments and insisted that the
colony's business affairs should be trusted to
the practiced hands - men: But the majority
oyerruled them, Mrs. Jewett and Mrs.
HurSeCker we're chosen for two OF the directors.
Another lady was chosen secretary. several
were admitted as full members Of the colony.
np p r "t discontent II was bfYntsad' Inv otsSSn a
dissatisfied that women didn't know much
about business anyway. The work Of the Lady
directors were freely discussed. And soon some
one discovered that when. Mr.. and Mrs. Hun
secke- voted with Mr.. and Mrs. Jewett they had
q majority W the Board OF seven directors and
could do what they chose.
About ten days ago the crisis came The ma
.ority OF the society, wanted one plan, OF work
adopted. and the majority Of the board favored
another. The .Hnnseckers and Jewetts voted
together. and their plan was adopted. That set
tied II. Ten families seeded from the colony,
and, began packing their earthly possessions
ready to emigrate. Seven members. five OF them
officers, remained loyal. These are MIR. and Mrs.
Jewett, Mr.. and Mrs. Hunsecker. Mr.. and Mrs.
Howell. and the lady secretary.
The split cannot b. mended. A division of
property has teen effected. and the seceders are
now looking Cor n new home. Their plan Is TO
go = few miles down the valley. take up some
wild land. and form a new colony with improved
bylaws into which. 1t Is said, no idea OF woman
suffrage will be allowed to creep. There may be
come trouble over the homestead laws. which
recognize only Individual settlers, Who are under
no obligations to share their land with anybody.
But the seceders hope to FIX that.
Whether the seven faithful members of the
old colony will stay together on the farm at
the mouth OF the White salmon remains TO be
seen. The chances are that they will for q awhile,
at any rate.

TIE Fate Of o.. Anti-Msrryiag Club In the
Nutmeg State.

NEW HAVEN. Sept. s.-A short time sgo-re-
markedly short It was, too-eight prominent
young men of the queer city OF Derby resolved
to forswear female society forever, so they or
ganized themselves into an "Anti-Marrying
Club" They hired . hall and appointed one Of
their number President who was officially
known as 1.-The Moxul." According TO the con-
s~titution and bylaws OF the club. the members
were forbidden 70 walk on the street with q
young woman or escort a single lady to any
place OF entertainment and 1t ran along beauti-
fully for Just thirty-six hours. Then. all OF a
sudden. IL came TO pass that its constitution and
bylaws disagreed violently With tho cocst!,u-
tion and bylaws OF the members
There was n hand concert at Ansonia the other
night, and not less than three prominent mem
bers OF the Anti Marrying Club sneaked Off TO
IL. Worse yet, on the trip home TO Derby they
engaged In q perfectly desperate Irritation with
q whole car load OF pretty Derby girls. Their
reckless act OF treason was revealed publicly al
most a. soon as the guilty men reached Derby.
and the club was dissolved almost as speedily as
q quart OF mountain dew" among Nutmeg
National Guardsmen at Camp Bradley, Mantle.
The club abandoned its rooms Immediately, and
the Derby folks are having more fun than .
goat at the expense of the members.

she staAas Ahead OF the HsssaAd N shs
Matter OF HOme Hale.

A gentleman. recently returned from a visit
20 the Indians OF the OnOndaga Reservation in
this State. said the other day; II was sur
prised TO find the women OF the nation held In
such high esteem. Ny preconceiyed notion OF
the Indian squaw was that she is the drudge and
slave OF her lazy, semi-barbarous master, and
that she Is in no way hOnored by the males OF
her race. This is the case, | am told with most
tribes OF the American red men, but
II was never so with the nations OF the Iroluois
cOnfederACy, In fact, the women we're held in
20 high regard by the lroguois that they were
spoken OF as a people ruled by women.
This peCuliarity T. evidenced In their life to-
day. IL Is true that there ISN'T much work done
by any OF the Indians, but the men do most Of
what Is done, the squaw only being called on 70
attend To her household duties The superb
oTity Of the squAw 20 the buck Is shown in the
fact that the children, according 20 the custom
OF the IrOquois. belong to the family or nation
OF their mother. IL a seneca Indian mErries
an OnOndagA squaw. and they have children,
the latter arr ~OnOndagas. and should the father
be OF the family OF the Wolf. and the mother
of the Snipe clan. the children are Snipes- IL Is
as II John smith married Mary Jones. and a
child of the marriage was named John JOnes.
Another indication OF the superiority OF the
SQuAw Is shOyL In the Indian manner OF speak
ing OF a man and a woman. In English they
hAbituAlly refer Ia her and him as doing some
thing, being somewhere, OF saying something.
Possibly they are more grammatical In the use
of their own dialect
