A correspondent assails the modern
movement in the direction of larger
freedom and opportunity for women on
the ground that women already have
all the liberty they need ''Where, he
asks Indignantly, lean nobler types of
womanhood be found than were our
mothers and grandmothers: Do not their
purity, tenderness, fidelity to duty and
capacity to deal successfully with COM
plicated household affairs prove that
they possessed all the freedom they re-
quired for the development of their fac
uIties and the fuIfllment of their mis-
sion?''
Our correspondent apparently fails to
see that in recOunting the admirable
qualities of the woman of the past she
is making the strongest possible plea
for the complete emancipation Of the
woman of the present and the future.
The fact that under such limitations as
have existed until recently the women
of America have nobly borne their part
in the maintenance of the household
and the upbuilding of our great repub-
lie is surely potent argument for wild
ening their opportunities for usefulness
and self development. Even from this
essentially narrow point of view the
women of the United States have proved
themselves the worthy helpmeets and
the fit peers of men, for no man with
brains and discrimination can ignore
the fact that the domestic problems
which women are constantly called
upon to solve are among the most diff
cult questions of human existence that
they require tact, wisdom, frmness and
charity in a measure not exceeded by
any other complications, and that upon
their rightful solution rests not merely
the happiness of the home, but the in
tegrity of the nation. The saying that
'tthe hand that rocks the cradle is the
hand that rules the world'' is as trite
as it is true. The world in these days is
rapidly coming to recognize that the
mind that directs the 1nultitudinops af-
fairs of the household and guards the
footsteps of childhood with infinite care
is capable of success in realms of
achievement which have hitherto been
deemed the exclusive province of the
masculine sex. 1t requires quite as much
brains to bring up baby as it does to
cast allot-New York Press

Miss TouImin Smith.

Miss Toulmin Smith is the first ,wOm-
an to receive the appointment of iIibra-
rian Of Manchester college, Oxford.
Miss Smith has won the much coveted
post by sheer force of merit and over
the heads of nearly 100 competitors,
chiefly of the sterner sex. Manchester
college, the fine Gothic building which
was opened two years ago by the Uni
tarians, has proved itself fully abreast of
the spirit of the times, which takes per-
sonality rather than social position, ca
pacity rather than sex, as the true basis
of selection for Office. DIR. Murray the
editor of the great dictionary now being
issued by the Oxford Press. has intrust-
ed much of his most difficult research
work to Miss Toulmin Smith, who has
proved herself an invaluable colleague.
She is a great granddaughter of Mr..
Toulmin, the we'll known Presbyterian
divine. Her father hailed from War
wickshire, her mother from Yorkshire,
but she happened to be born at Roxbury,
Mass, during her parents short sojourn
in the States. She has lived in High
gate nearly all her life, for many years
aiding her father in his writings on con-
stitutional history. With DIR. Elizabeth
Blackwell and few others she founded
the National Health society and acted
as secretary for some time.I She has for
many years been a school manager I'M
der the Hornsey school board, and she
watches with intense interest the prog
ress of the present struggle. Her sym
pathies are all on the side of freedom of

.CouhiGed By 4 Lady.

CHARLOTTE, Jan. IA very pretty
and neatly dressed young woman
went into the racket store of Williams
Hood & Co., here today and inquired
for John DeLane, a clerk in the estab-
lishment. Confronting him in the pre-
sence of several travelling men, she
produced an anonymous letter of an
Insulting nature, which she accused
DeLane of writing, atthe same time she
took cowhide from bundle she car
ried, and applied several smart and
vigorous blows to the young man S
head. before he made his escape by
jumping over dry goods box. The
tongue lashing the young clerk recelv-
ed is described as being more severe
than the cowhiding. The young lady
was Miss May Hirt, formerly of Char
lesion, S. c., at which city Mr.. DeIane
met her and became engaged to her.
She followed him to Charlotte, her
family coming along with her. Here
the engagement was broken off by
Mr.. DeLanea and at one time the youny
lady threatened to bring a breach of
promise suit against him. The clouds,
however, rolled by and everything
seemed serene until the sudden storm
which burst in such fury in the racket
store today. Miss Hirt accuses Mr..
DeLane of writing many unsigned IN
sulting letters to her, which however,
ne strongly denied. Miss Hirt caused
the arrest of Mr. DeLane accusing him
of writing the slanderouf letters and
the mayor will hear the case tomor
