Public Spirited Brooklynites.

The ladies of the Women's Health
Protective association of Brooklyn are
certainly indefatigable. l am a busy
man myself for the money there is in
it, but when l see the energy these la
dies exhibit for nothing at all except a
pure love of humanity understand the
surprising value of unselfish effort
Within four short weeks they have
aroused the ferry companies into scrub
bing out the boats every other day, have
worried the corporation council into de-
fining the law which forbids the erec-
tion of stables in residential districts,
have stirred up the park commissioner
by instructing him how to spend his an
nual appropriation and have badgered
the mayor into ordering the police COM
missioner to strictly enforce the law for
bidding the throwing of paper into ash
receptacles in public places. During
this period, moreover, nearly 200 mem
bers have joined the association, and
each one is pledged to enlist at least
three more. Brooklyn is taking ON in
consequence a look of rare smartness
and neatness, and the influence of the
work is permeating thousands of house
holds. When the time comes that the
streets shall be properly paved, there
will have been sufficient public spirit
aroused to keep them reasonably clean.

work and lofty civic spirit this Wom-

titled to medal of the first class. -

woman's Good influence.

Take the great cities of the country
that are SO badly mismanaged, and you
find organizations of women banded to-
gether not to do harm to the city or to
put forth temptations that degrade and
drag down its inhabitants, but to ee-
cure clean streets and to do the best
good they can. Take New York, Chica-
go, Philadelphia and other cities, and
you find women banded together for
that purpose. 1 believe that it is much
better for us to be interested in good
sewerage, good water supply, good air
and good moral surroundings than to
be interested in foreign missions, which
are not of quite as close interest to us
as the conditions which surround our
own homes. AS to the suffrage taking
up women's time and putting upon us
responsibilities, / believe that 1t will
be much easier for women of city to
go to the polls ON election day and vote
for the men who will see that these
things are brought into the life OF the
city to make for it good health than for
them to take the extra work of nursing
children suffering from diphtheria and
scarlet fever. 1t is much easier to vote
for a good condition of the town than
to take care of the bad condition. We
have here a lady who was elected to
the school board of Quincy, Mass. She
went to work at certain school. She
asked the privilege of doing so, simply
because the children who attended that
school We're so unhealthy and so many
of them died. The disease seemed to be
of the worst character. The discoveries
that she made in the building were
enough to shock any good housekeeper.
She went TO work, cleaned the house
from top TO bottom and found in the cell
lar a sunken tub, into which had been
dripping water from leaks until the en-
tire tub had rotted away and the stencil
had permeated the whole building. The
children were dying by the score She
went to work and did the general house
cleaning of that school And submit

MRS. BEEcHER'S ARGUMENT AGAINST
ALLOWING WOMEN TO VOTE.

Woman's Good Infiuence-A Hint For

sharp Hetty Green-Mrs. Dunlap Hop
kins-she Was Ambitious.
Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher does not
believe in the ballot for woman, as the
following interview with writer for a
New York daily clearly demonstrates:
There is great interest in woman
suffrage just now," Mrs. Beecher said
to the reporter.
"And you are not i'll favor of the
movement, Mrs. Beecher?" she was
asked
mo, indeed" was the reply. 81
think women have all they can do with
out taking an interest i'll public affairs.
would be willing to give up half my
rights to men instead of taking any of
theirs.
"If you grant the suffrage, there is
nothing to prevent all sorts of women
from going to the polls, and it might
cause many evils. If they could arrange
it so that only respectable, sensible
women should vote, it might be differ
ent. -
"Do you think woman suffrage will
come eventually?"
81 hope shan't live to see it, said
Mrs. Beecher, with energy.
''They say" suggested the reporter,
quoting a time honored argument,
that the poor woman who is striving
to support and educate her children in
the face of the obstacle of drunken
husband will at least be able to protect
herself from personal abuse if she has
the ballot.
81 don't think she will. 1t is nonsense
when he is intoxicated fears neither
God, man nor the devil, as the old wom-
an said" replied Mrs. Beecher.
"You believe in the protest that is
being made against the constitutional
amendment then%'
Eyes, certainly. My name was the
first one on the list. The polls are no
place for women. Woman's place is at
home. 1 used to tell Mr. Beecher that
vote 1 would go to the polls with him
and then ask him how 1 should vote.
81 think a woman g work is harder
in many ways than mans She has
more duties to perform in making her
home and children happy That is work
man cannot do
81 believe in thorough equality be-
tween men and women. They can go
hand in hand together. My husband
and l used to talk over all these things.
/ always knew what his views We're, but
as for going into it and voting would
not have done it at all. think it takes
a great deal from a woman's modesty
going into public life, and modesty is
her greatest charm.
"There is not one public woman who
does her duty at home-not one in 500."

Sharp HettY Green.

He is sharp business man who can
get the better of Mrs. Hetty Green, the
wealthy fincncier. When the business
depression was weighing most heavily
upon the country, rich New Yorker,
who wanted a large sum of ready
money, wished to place mortgage on
one of the most valuable pieces of real
estate in New York city. His brokers
set forth to negotiate the loan, but cash
was extremely scarce, even when the
finest security was offered for it. Among
others whom the brokers saw in regard
to the loan was a certain banker who
knows Mrs. Green. He was unable to
make the loan and could think of nc
one who could. Meeting Mrs. Green
the next day, however, he said to her:
"Oh, why didn't think of you yes
terday? Mr.. Us brokers were in to
see me to borrow a million. "
"On what?" asked Mrs. Green, and
the banker explained the security, the
terms, etc.
"You can go and see the brokers
now," he said. "You will be welcome.
"A mllllOn ISL easy W Ialso III 0hoSS
days, and there is pretty commission
in it for them if they can get the money
from you. They'll be glad to see you. -
But the brokers did not see Mrs.
Green. She had no intention of letting
that commission go astray. She saw
Mr.. 2 herself, gave him the loan at
her rate of interest and took the COM
mission also for getting the loan. New
