EDUCATION AYD MARRIAGE.

1t Is an interesting discussion that
is now going on In some OF the maya
zines, and not few of the newspapers.
women have upon marriage The Bos-
ton Herald treats the question In the
following manner:
Three of the leading magazines for
the present month discuss the higher
education OF women from the mar
riage point of view. They each show
that Tie college postpones marriage, If
IT does not set 1t aside altogether. The
Bryn Mawr graduates do not marry
until late in life, and those Of Vassar
College do not. for the most part show
any hurry in that direction. In an cs-
innate drawn from the statctics Of
fifteen leading colleges, co-education
ana Tor women alone, 1t is found that
IS per cent. have married. In England
tic educated woman Is less given to
marriage Than in This country There
are not reasons why these women
should delay marriages n good while
They are not OF the marrying kind
They have higher ideal than others
and 1t is difficult for them to satisfy
IT. Then II takes them some years To
ADJUST their education to the actual
conditions OF life. and TO assert their
natural selves. At the same time. II Ia
too early to draw strict conclusions on
tins subject from the statistics already
existing"
The New Orleans States is inclined to
the opinion that the reason why hlrhlr
educated women are not given to mar
ryinS is due to the fact that her cdu.
cation enables her to make her own
living, and be Independent Of Inascu-
line support. Viewing the matter
from sectional standpoint, 1t says that
1t must not be forgotten that in TN,
Eastern States and especially in New
England. the women largely outnunber
the rousher sex, because the flower OF
the young manhood OF those States
nave gone West, married and grown up
with family and the country. And
as they are constantly going West the
material left behind is not such as To
tempt highly educated woman to Sc
lect a husband from It,"
There may be something in what the
States has to say as to New England,

IF VENEZUELA SHOULD FIGHT.

No, small amount of speculation Is
being INDUCED in as to the position the
United States will take should Venezu-
elm actually engage I'm war with Eng
land. a
In view OF the many complications
which now claim the attention Of the
British ministry, there are those in this
country who believe that England Will
not attempt TO enforce her demands
on Venezuela at this time, but this be-
lief Is likely to be dispelled. The state
ment is made that Venezuel, is prepar-
ing for war with Great Britain, and
that 1t need not be surprising should
an outbreak occur at any time. II this
report Is true 1t Is safe to say that
all speculation on the subject will come
to an end as soon as hostilities are
begun. for 1t Is not likely that the
United States Will be silent witness
to the contest

although It is not complimentary to
that class Of the male fraternity who
inhabit that section OF the country.
But so far as the South Is concerned It
does not appear that the higher educa-
tlon Of Its women have had anything
to do with their marrying. The moth
ers OF the South are among tits best
educated women and hundreds OF men
of the Southland owe their education
and success In life to the teachings OF
their mothers. and If the higher edu-
cation of women was n preventative OF
marriage this would not be So

1t was great gladness to have a house

crowning cause of gladness that the

V. Beck, $40, and Mrs. Case, $40.
At the evening service Rev. George II.

complimenting the members upon the

out that the future was bright.

IT WAS A FARCE.
Special Investigation Committee Had Lit.
tie TO Investigate.


tie to Investigate.
The special fire department investiga-
tiOn committee was a tiasco. 1t had
been charged over a month ago that
Chief Ferber kept the Niagara Hose
company out of service d week by loan
ing its hose to the Driving park people
to flood the park, and that Chief Fer
Der had said that the Niagara company
members played poker in their quarters
and incidentally made large gas bills
for the city to pay.
At Saturdays investigation in the
North End it was ascertained that
Chief Ferber had loaned the hose for
only day. but that it had been kept
one week and had also been damaged.
The committees conclusion was to di-
rect the chief to collect the amount
from the skating rink people.
Concerning the abnormal gas bills
and poker playing, it developed that
the same meter Is used by the Niagara
and Liberty companies, which rendered
it impossible to decide which company
had used more than a reasonable
amount of gas. A separate meter was
ordered for each company. The result
Of the investigation will be reported
| Thursday night to common council.
