THE sELFIsRNEsS OF WOMEN.

We are so much IN the way OF hear
ing the unselhShneSS Of women ex-
plotted by their admirers that it
strikes upon us with a sudden jar
when we hear some plain-spoken
body cry out upon the sex as selfish.
At recent luncheon, where around
an elegant table twenty clever
women discussed topics OF interest
while they ate pates and ices, one
young lady boldly proclaimed her
conviction that women, if not in
herently selfish, were at least more
selfish than men. Assaulted on all
sides, she skiltully defended her posi-
ton, declaring that one had only to
60 to the fashionable resorts, in
summer or in winter, to prove the
truth of what she said. Think, !"
she asserted, 'of the lonely weeks a
man is forced to spend at home,
while his wife and daughters are en-
joying themselves at Bar Harbor or
somewhere else in August, or at St.
Augustine in February The poor
plodding male creature who pays
the bills never expects a vacation be-
yond his month or his fortnight,
regulated by the exigencies OF bust
ness or the working force of the Of
fee; but madam and MAIDEN oiselle,
they fit away as care-tree as the
birds. and never trouble themselves
about the poor forlorn man, who
dimes at his club and comes home to
a cheerlessly lonely house"
my husband hates society. and
adore it, said another. Which is
the more selfish, he or l? If l yield
to his preference at the time, l
develop selhshness in him, and sure
~ that would be very undesirable;
and, on the other hand, if l drag him
away from his den and his news
paper to gay functions which he de-
tests, am developing selhshness in
my own character. Either way
am in a difficulty. But l do not
think l can be called selfish because
l am not resigned to a purely
domestic life
The old rule of mutual forbear-
ance would seem to be the only one
applicable" said quiet little lady.
"Perbaps the selhshness is principal
ly in human nature. - Harper's

ON Yesterday he stopped at the' post

NO CHANGE.
The postmaster could not change the

OTIS SKINNER AND DR.. STAFFORD.
The One Mt the Theatre Tonight and TN
Other at the Academy.


Otis SINNERS engagement at the Thea

the most notably interesting events OF
the season He will present Clyde Fitch
brilliant new comedy His Grace de
Grammont" this evening and at the
matinee tomorrow. and an adaptation OF
Victor Hugo's famous drama, The
Kings Jester tomorrow night. MI.
Fitch has found his dramatic inspiration
in English history. He has chosen a
most picturesque period, and a striking
personality for his central figure. TINT
of Chevalier de Grammont. De Cram
mont was a favorte at the Court OF
France in the reign of Louis XIV. lie
was exiled on account of his love affair
with Madam HOudancourt, and took up
his residence at the Court OF Charles ii.
Of England. The play begins about this
time in English history, and the charac-
ters are all historical. Fitch has idealized
the character of De Grammont in the
play, and has given his personality some
thing of the romance and heroism OF
D'Artagnan.
The Rev. DR.. Stafford will deliver his
famous lecture on Hamlet" at the
Academy tonight in aid CT the poor Of
Richmond The lecture will begin
promptly at o'clock in order to afford
ample time for those who intend to be
present at the Charity Ball to attend the
lecture first. without inconvenience. DR..
Stafford who is an orator OF rare gifts,
will arrive in Richmond this morning.
Both he and the cause in behalf of which
he is TO speak deserve a tremendous
house.
Barney Ferguson. who MADE fame and
fortune with "McCarthy's Mishaps," Will
appear at the Academy tomorrow in his
new vaudeville farce. "Dufys Blunders."
The lecture. What Must We do TO be
Saved" which will be delivered at the
Theatre next Monday by Colonel Robert
G. Ingersoll. IS an event that will be
attractive alike to the heterodox and TO
the orthodox.
