Out az the West division high school
is being given a practical exemplitica-
ton OF the tyranny of woman. Just
because the girls in the senior class
happen to be To- an accidental majority
they have deliberately girlcotted the
twenty-siX boys and tumbled them
down from their various Offices aud
ornamental positions 10 the high school
organization. A girl president, a girl
vice-president, q girl orator, girl mar
shal, a girl poet, girl prophet, and
even a girl treasurer OF the class OF 1894
has been elected, while the young gen.
tlemen OF this years vintage have re-
ceived where Frank Lawler got the
postoilice.
Naturally, trouble has enSued. The
boys, remembering the B0stOn tea party
and the Mormon war, the fight with
Barbary aud Shay's rebellion, have
arisen no their manhood and have
sharply drawn the line with two
whereaSes and one resolved, In a man
nsr which should show these immature
and incipient women whether they are
drifting. But 10 will not. Our sym
pathy is with the boys, of course, but
sage experience and close scrutiny Of
the ways Of womankind fastens upon us
the conviction that when $50 female
persons get headed 10 one direction the
wise man climbs a tree and praYs to the
Lord.
Tt is wrong. To is villainously unjust.
TIC is atrociously improper. There
should be tweuty-SiX offices for those
twenty-six protesting high school boys,
and If the girls had understanding or
knowledge Of their place in the scale OF
creation they would see this and yield.
But they will not see 10 and they will
not yield.
A girl has all the immoral and i'm
proper and blameWorthy tendencies Of
a woman. but has them under less con-
troll She is a savage, Uncivilized and
unenlightened, dominated neither by
conscience nor by proper and sensible
masculine guidance, and the only thing
90 be done with her when she is In a
working majority is 70 hose for the
best. but not TO expect it. Our high
school boys have evil times ahead OF
them. Chicago Nail

THEPRESS Club WINS.
THE WHEELING BOWLING CLUB LOSES TWO
HORE GAKE1
The Press Club Team Does Itself Proud ca &s
Home Alleys and Its Blind Makes
Perfect Score.

Another bloody scalp is dangling at
the belt of the victorious Press Club
bowling team. The Wheeling Bowling
Club were the victims and dropped two
games, thus losing several points in the
race for place and putting the South
Side an easy first. But TIE Press Club
gets a whack at them in two weeks, and
then look outl The Press Club only
plays for big game. 1t beat the Bowl
ers when they held the highest score, 1t
beat the Bowling Club when q victory
would have tied them for first place,
and now the South Side team seems
booked for its next victims.
When the Wheeling Bowling Club
went down to Fette's one night last
week for practice and bowled from sew
en- o'clock till ten they built up quite
record, and counted on winning both
games with the Press Club as a dead
sure thing. The club which held the
second place had nothing to fear from
rank tail enders. And the Press
Club never said a word. They simply
put their Blind man TO work, started
Freddy Colmar with his circus plays
and knocked down all the pins as fast
as they could be set up. The first game
was very close, the official count and
recount being required to settle 1t, and
when the official score was announced a
wild shout rent the air. The Press
Club yell was given time after time and
the Bowling Club retired to the ante
room for repairs. Following is the score

EDWARD D. WHITE
NOMINATED BY Mr. CLEVELAND AND con-
FIRMED BY THE SENATE,
To b an Associate justice Of the United States
Supreme Ooart-Surpriss That the President
Should 60 so Far From New York for Can
didais-Senaor Hill Makes a Speech Com
msnding White.

WASHINGTON, D. c., February 10
The President to-day sent to the Senate
the name Of Senator Edward D. White
to be Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court.
Senator White is nominated to Gil the
vacancy caused by the death of tie late
Justice Samuel f. Blatchford, OF New
York. The President nominated White
after the Senate had refused to confirm
Hornblower and PecKham. The seIec-
tion Of a justice from Louisiana is a
great surprise, though it was admitted
Immediately after Peckham's nomina-
tien had been rejected, that the PreSi-
dent considered himself entirely free to
90 outside Of New York in making the
appointment.
Some surprise was manifested that
the President went so far from New
York, and the comments were to the
effect that he had DO debut taken the
Associate Justiceship
OUT OF NEW YORK POLITICS.
Senator White was not at the Capitol
and was no doubt aware Of the honor
about to be bestowed upon him, al
though il was surprise TO every other
man In the Senate.
Ii is the usual custom in the Senate
when a Senator is nominated to confirm
him without waiting to refer the nomi-
nation % a committee. This action is
never taken except when q sitting or an
ex-senator is named. A single objec-
ton to confirmation without reference
would carry the nomination over.
AT sos the Senate went into execu-
tive session on motion of Mr.. Catfrey,
Dem Louisiana, with a view to con-
irming Mr.. White at once.
ThesmOtiOn to confirm the nomina-
ton OF Senator White was made by
Senator Pugh (Dem., Alabama), who
made a speech eulogizing the nomina-
tion, and was SfolloWed by Senators
Hoar, Teller, Hill and Gallery, all ex-
cept the latter, members of the Judi
ciary Committee,
SENATOR HILL SAID
that while he regretted that the Presi-
dent had in his wisdom seen ft to go
outside Of New York for a man for the
Office, no was pleased that the choice
had been made so wisely.
The Injunction of secrecy was remov-
ed from the confirmation Of Mr.. White
aud the fact made known officially.
The new justice, it is supposed, will re-
ceive his commission aud be ready to
take his seat on the bench when the
Supreme Court re-assembles the first
Monday in March, after Its February
recess.
The new Justice is bachelor at pre-
sent, but there is a we'll defined rumOr
afoat that before the year expires he
will espouse a we'll known society
woman who has been a brilliant figure
in Washington.

10 is astonishing how serene and
placid the modern Republican states
man can be while occupying ineonsist-
ent positions. Here we have Senator
TELLER protectlonist, ehampioning
annexation with Canada when, If part
Of the United States, Csnada's coal, lum-
Der, &c, would come TO US free. Yet
TELLER, doubtless, will vote against
free coal and lumber.
The Senator ought to get together on
these questions OF protection against
Canada and Canadian annexation. In
case Of annexation how could we pro-
tect ourselves from the awful inunda-
ton of Canadian products, which Mr..
TELLER's party declares would result
from oiree trade with Canada? The
Senator should look into this matter
and abandon one or the other Of his po-
sitions. As the Philadelphia Record
says:
Trade takes no heed OF political ar
engagements. Should Canada be annexed
politically its products would compete Just
as keenly with products or this country as
10 reciprocal free trade only should be es-
ta0lished with the Dominion. We have
no doubt that Senator TELLER will assent
20 this proposition; and in such case he, as
an anncxatiO nist, cannot regard free trade
with Canada as a dangerous or even an I'M
desirable thing. on the other hand, free
trade with Canada would tend powerfully
60 the political end which he seeks. he
begins at the wrong end Of the business.
Free trade with Canads first and anneXa-
ton afterward.
But what do the great coal-carrying
corporations think Of their friends in
Congress who desire the political union
Of Canada with this country? The
most enthusiastic Of these champions
Of annexation next to Senator TELLER
is Senator HOAR, Of Massachusetts,
who at the same time is violently in
favor Of the protection Of American
coal from competition with the coal Of
Nova Scotia. There are also a
great many earnest advocates OF
annexation in the Republi-
can newspapers who are also much op-
pressed by the fear that Nova Scotia
coal, if made free Of duty by the Will
son bin, would close most Of the coal
mines of the United States. But an
nexation would not merely give coal bat
an other products Of Canada free mar
ket In this country. IL will be difficult
for plain people to reconcile the trans
parent Inconsistency Of these two POSI-
tions.
But it is certain that Republican ad-
v0cates of annexation have no fear Of
free Nova Scotia coal They are bowling
against that schedule Of the Wilson
bin purely for partisan effect

The victims started out upon the sec
ond game with the determination TO
win, but as Colmar's curves rolled down
the alleys and sent the pins a-tumbling
and the "blind mans" strikes kept
piling up, their courage failed and they
saw from the start that they were not
In the game. The most exciting mo-
ment was when Naylor rolled the
last ball for the blind. He made a
strike, which was roundly cheered by
the large crowd which had come to see
the game. His next ball knocked down
ten and the excitement was intense.
The crowd rushed up and almost filed
the alley. The umpire called time and
made the crowd stand back, when Nay
Tor coolly sent the last ball down and
made a strike and completed the blinds
perfect score. The crowd went almost
wild and every member of the Press
Club team was showered with con-
CALCULATIONS.

Sudden Demise of Mrs. Charles EdahI Last
Night.
Mrs. Charles Edahl dropped dead
about ten o'clock last night in the yard
adjoining her home. She was missed by
the family, aud when the premises we're
searched she was found lying In the
yard. Her body was then cold, and
when DR.. Stathers arrived he gave it as
his opinion that she had been dead for
half an hour. Death was probably
caused by spopexy.
Mrs Edahl was a daughter OF August
Carl, and was about 50 years Of age.
Her untimey death will cause great
sorrow among her many friends, and
the afflicted relatives will have the
sincere sympathy of all who know
them,
Coroner J. w. Schultze was called to
the house and held an inquest. The
verdict was death from heart failure. !"
