glory of q humble, patient mothers work
to shine through but somewhere and some
time, it will shine forth Us the highest,
most fruitful and noblest work Of all. II
there is to be failure in human society
and the social fabric shall fall in ruins,
the central point Of the wreck will be
found in the dying out Of the "home idea"
which is woman's side Of the cooperative
work III the social economy.
There can be nothing better said in clos
ing than the clear and cogent utterance
of Mr.. Humphrey Ward; Nothing can
be further from our minds than to seok to
depreciate the position OF women. 1t is
because we are keonly alive 10 the enor-
nous value OF their special contribution to
the community that we oppose what
srems likely TO ondanger that contribu-
ton. We nre convinced that tho pursuit
of n mere outward equality with men is
not only vain but demoralizing. 1t leads
to u total misconception OF woman's true
dignity and special mission. 1t tends to a
personal struggle and rivalry, when tho
| only effort Of both the great divisions OF
tho human family should be to contribute
tho characteristic labor, and the bsst gifts
Of each to the common stock"

LIQUIDS IN THE MAILS.
A Notice From the Superintendent of
the Railway Mail Service.

The question of admission of liquids into
the mails has proved a source of consider
able annoyance to the Post Office Depart
ment. Frequent violations of the section
of the postal regulations governing the mat
ter have been reported, and the general
superintendent of the railway mail service
has issued the following notice to all post
masters:
THE postal laws and regulations pre-
scribe the condition under which liquids
may be admitted to the mails. The provi-
sions should be carefully enforced by all
postmasters, who should see that the cases
in which such matter Is inclosed are water
tight and not less than 3-16 OF an inch
thick. An ordinary wooden box with a
screw cover does not comply with the pro-
visions of the regulation. and this Office has
reason to believe that number Of manu-
facturers in different parts of the country
advertise to sell mailing boxes that do not
comply with the provisions, and that a
large number of such boxes are used.
Nearly all of the larger firms manufactur-
ing mailing cases have submitted samples
to this office for inspection and approval,
and their cases bear a certificate from this
office that they conform to the regulations
of the Post Office Department. Postmasters
should carefully scrutinize all mailing cases
that do not bear such a certificate to see
that they comply fully with the regula-
TONS"

STREET CAR RENDERS,
The Tests Already Made by the COM
ElissiOners.

The Tests Already Made by the COM
EiissiOners. ----
Senator Gallinger is very much interested
In the subject of tenders for street cars.
In letter 10 the Commissioners recently
he expressed his regrets at not being able
to witness the experiments of a patent fen
der. and urged them to find a suitable ap-
pliance at the earliest possible moment.
In reply to this letter the Commissioners
invite attention 10 their report upon the
subject Of car tenders, made in response to
resolution of the Senate March 20, 1894.
1t Is generally understood-in fact, the
Commissioners have practically agreed not
to recommend the adoption of any car
fender that extends beyond the front Of the
car. Their reason for this Is that such con-
struction ID dangerous, and many people
are caught that would otherwise escape.
Up to this time but one car fender has been
tried whose construction was wholly under
meath the car and behind the front dash
board. That was the Eldridge j. Smith
fender and those who saw its operation on
the Washington and Georgetown railroad
were much pleased with IL. The Commits
sioners however can take no further action
in the matter of tenders. They have al
ready transmitted to Congress their report
upon the subject, and IL is for that body
to enact such laws as will compe, the rail-
road companies TO adopt some form of
fender.

AGED COLoRED PEOPLES HOME.
What Mr.. White Said to the Com

What Mr.. White Said to the Com
missioners on the Subject.
J. L. White. who signs himself Agent"
appeared before the Commissioners this
morning in the interest of House bill 1905
to provide for the erection Of a national
home for aged and infirm colored persons
and the maintenance Of the inmates thereof.
He said:
In the Fifty-second Congress appeared
before the Commissioners upon this same
subject. and they decided that as to the
money they had Jurisdiction over they
only controlled the revenue that was de-
rived from the taxes of the District Of Co
iumbia, and as to the home, they had no
objection to the passage of the bill making
an appropriation of $4,000. AS to the
necessity Of such an institution, there are
over sO,OOO colored people in this District,
ana they have no charitable institution of
their own: while they raise collections each
month from all their churches, they have
10 carry II around to private houses, and
the colored people all over the country have
sagned petition asking Congress to ap-
propriate this money to build national
memorial home for the aged and infirm
eolored people. AS to the proviso that is
In the bill. which was put in by Mr.. Can
non without our consent, we are willing
that that should be stricken out of the bill,
although there is no way that a charitable
institution of this character can become
a charge upon the general government or
the local government. This Is intended to
be Christian home and run on just such
basis as Christian church. The Consti-
tuition provides that the church and state
must be kept separate; therefore. we feel
that no government authority, has any,
thing to do with such institution, only to
see that they are governed according to
their charter and discipline"
