ITEMS OF GENERAL INTEREST.

Sturgeon fishing in Delaware bay
promises to make up in some measure
this year for dull shad season. One
sturgeon boat sometimes earns from if
teen to twenty dollars per night. A
sturgeon fisherman recently caught in
one night two roe sturgeon worth ten
dollars each. A day laborer in that
region would be several weeks in earn
ing so much. Many colored men have
been attracted to the trade of fisher
men because of these occasional prizes.
One of the curious trades that -four
ish in the region bordering the French
quarter of New York is that of the lace
designer. Originality in such designs,
as in most other things, is rare, and
while there are lace makers of every
degree of skill, there are few really ex-
cellent designers. Of course the artist
artisan of this Clans Is free to aid his
imagination by all that illustration
furnishes from the past. The laces at
the Metropolitan Museum of Art are
also Of use to such workers.

NOT MUCH WONDER.

One of the wonders of the age is how il can
be that a man who has SO nice Wife as
blesscs the home of Marsh Murdoch can be
such woman hater.-Minneapolis Messenger.
That home would not be SO blessed
were its capable mistress less devoted to
it and to the happiness of its inmates.
That her talents in any direction are
secondary to those of the crowd of
women now holding forth on the stump
iu the state, the editor of the Messenger
would hardly dale affirm. As for the
rest our proverbial hatred of woman is
such that had we the power to SO direct
and to so enforce, no wife during the
years of her maternal mission should
ever be burthened with single other
household care, duty or responsibility,
much less with those of public charac-
ter. Her own sweet will and pleasure.
and the comfort of her offspring, should
be her sole responsibility.
1t is not through any fear that woman
may encroach upon the power of man
that the EAGLE opposes woman suffrage.
1t is the conviction that it will tresspass
upon her sacred motherhood and de-
stroy the delicate purity and refined
modesty of her true nature. 1t would
inevitably do just that thing. The aim
and purpose of woman suffrage advo-
Gates is industrial equality and
political participation. They are for
woman in the shop, in the factory,
in the Office, at the polls, and
everywhere except in the home. If
women are to have all these avenues
opened to them it will be at the expense
Of her brother, her father, her son and
their homes No one but a woman fe-
male suffragist or a man whose sex or
brain is wrong viii deny this. The per-
centage of men thus thrown out would
be compelled to go-go to fill the wo-
mans deserted place in the home or to
the devil As for the influence that
public life has on women, On their char
acters, their emotional and mental ma
lures, it is only necessary to contem-
plate the Cougars. the Leases, Cats,
Shaws and all that retinue Of women who
are seeking to plunge into the turmoil Of
masculine life. The stake is enormous
even if it were conceded that man as
legislator and guardian of woman's
rights has at times or in some countries
seemed remiss.

"You talked to 'em just right"
"Yes, guess I did. Another time I

There may be a tincture of race preju-
dice about it, but to the observer of daily
events there is strong belief that the
Anglo-Saxon is alone capable of perpetu-
ating republican form of government.
The southern races, that is the Spanish,
the French and Italians are not. The
French Republic is still something of an
experiment.. In South America the
troubles of the various republics are so
frequent and of such a radical nature
that they grow monotonous. Brazil is
still uneasy. Argentine is in the midst
of a revolution. Paraguay, without
warning, has just banished its president
and put another man man in his place,
and little Salvador, always in turmoil,
is also spelling for another fight.

Gratis could wish for. His resume Of
the work of Congress during the past
wear was clear and convincing. He re-

Cyclone" jim Marshall with him to do
his talking, and he would not detaiu
his audience with long speech. In
referring TO his work in Washington
Mr. Meredith alluded TO the number Of
would be offceholders who called on
him. and showed he did the best he
could for all. Virginia, however, was
already over represented, her appor-
tionment was so many, and since the
days of our Saviour no man had been
able to feed multitude of five thou
sand with five loaves and few fishes.
At the close OF his remarks Mr.. Mere
dith was rendered quite an ovation on
the stage.
Mr.. Marshall then responded to calls
and made one of his characteristic
speeches, which was well received.
At q quarter to four o'clock the con-
vention adjourned sine die.
The convention was rather small
one. The counties nearest the city
were well represented, but those in the
lower part of the district sent but few
delegates.
