WHAT SOME
OF CHICAGO'S NEW WOMEN
ARE DOING

Chicago has number of successful
women lawyers, and the law school is
sending out annually girl graduates who
aspire to succeed in this profession.
Among those last year was young negro
girl, who graduated at the head of her
class, and who was not only a laborions
student, but was also an accom- plished
linguist and pianist.
Among. the more prominent women
lawyers Mrs. Bessie Helmer. the daugh-
ter of Judge Bradwell and the late Myra
Bradwell, the brilliant and scholarly edi =.
tor Of the Legal News; she was the first
woman admitted to the supreme court,
and. in her long struggle for justice. did
more for her sex than any other one wom-
an in the west. Mrs. Helmer graduated
from the Northwestern University. taking
both the law and literary courses. The
daughter OF a Judge, OF woman who
was herslf a lawyer of the highest attain
ments and the editor of the official organ
OF the Chicago bar. Mrs. HelmeI has in
herited inevitably the capacity which she
has shown in her chosen pro-
fesson. She has also her moth
ers refinement OF manner, g-ace
and high breeding, and was one of the
founders of the Collegiate Alumnae ASSOC

OF AnH ATpor: sHe HaS Soou prdctlCe'
with an Office on La Sale street.. She
has been an acknowledged authority in
the Woman's club when the legality of
any question was under discussion. Miss
Martin has devoted herself chiefly to pro-
bate practice. Like her associate, Mrs.
Catherine Waugh Mccullough. she is an
ardent suffragist-like all women. it
might better be said, who are engaged in
professions. Mrs. Mccullough is Rock
ford woman, and was educated there.

But what else could be expected of a SO
ciety girl who spent her honeymoon
shooting tigers and all sorts OF horrible
things in Africa? The CAROLS made it the
fashion to build yacht and take it abroad
to race with the yachts of prime es and
dukes and earls.
The following summer George could
cclipsed the CAROLS by carrying over two
yachts. the Vigliant to race, and the mag
nifcent, palatal Atalanta to entertain
and live upon. In the old days. when
babies were babies sure enough Mrs.
Gould cared more for a quiet sail on her
own schooner yacht the Hlldegarde..
which was once owned by the Prince OF
Wales,and was afterwards George Gould S
gift to his wife upon her wedding day.
On this beautiful white winged vessel the
honeymoon of the young couple was
spent and Mrs. Gould has never wavered
in her allegiance to this first and best be-
loved OF the three magnificent yachts her
husband owns. But she thoroughly en-
joyed the racing in English waters. and
entertained right royalty on the Atalanta.
which was one of Jay Gould's latest gifts
to his favorite son.

sea sailor. She is the only woman mem

has paid particular attention to her yacht

its clever women, and among these the
young lawyer is prominent. She has
taken prominent part in the Cook
County Suffrage association, attends
meetings and conventions, and last year
was instrumental in having women nom
mated upon the various state tickets for
the office Of university trustee, and for
whom over So 600 women in the state of
Illinois voted at the November election.
Mrs. Mccullough is quite a young
woman and is remarkably beautiful, with

hair. (which has never been disfgured by
banging. regular features and rich bru-
nette complexion. She has growing prac-
tice. which keeps her closely occupied.
She is in partnership with her husband.
One of the most interesting accessions
to the ranks of the women lawyers is
Miss Blanche Fearing, who is also a poet
and novelist. Her verse is of marked
degree of excellence, while her ability as
story teller is yet to be tested. She has
in press forthcoming work entitled Ro-
berta.
Miss Fearing is entitled to all the more
credit for her ambition and what she has
actually accomplished in that she is en-
tirely blind. Thus afflicted. most women
would consider their condition hopeless,
but she is cheerful and enthusiastic. be-

comes down, and the stiff, ugly green
shades have the place of honor until Octo-
Der, when the dainty tinted and snowy
white draperies make the exteriors of
the plain brownstone houses lovely to
look upon.
When Mrs. Astor, Mrs. Gould or Mrs.
Carnegie announce to their stewards that
they have determined upon certain date
to set sail for Europe, the, steward informs
the twenty or more servants under MIN,
and as soon as the mistress quits her big
house for the steamer, all of the len and
MAIDS fall to work with right good will.
Instead of carpets these houses have ex-
qulslte rugs laid over the polished ivory,
lnlaid wood and marble floors. Silky
beautiful Persian prayer rugs, almost as
exquisite in coloring as painting. are
used Tor the most part. Instead of lying
loosely upon the floors, the rugs are wo-
ven unevenly into a neutral tinted filing,
making a large square rug which almost
covers the whole i1oof. There is all of the
artistic appearance OF separate rugs,
without the inconvenience of having them
slip and slide every time they are walked
upon. These rugs are sent III st of all to
the cleaners, where every spot stain or
particle OF dust is carefully removed, and
if there is single loose thread 1t is
caught and mended by a Persian work
man. who is especially EN- ployed for the
business.
The walls and ceilings are the next
consideration. The exquisite painting
on the canvas-covered ceiling ana the sid e
walls. with their coverings OF gold flecked
silk, satin brocade and Gohelin and Beau
Vais tapestry, must be kept from speck
and stain. To the heavy gold picture rod
are fastened hooks which hold the long
linen curtains which cover the walls
completely. falling down to the floor.
The ceiling is protected by canopy ar
rangement of the white linen, extending
from the picture rod to the center of the
room, where 1t Is caught around the chan
delier. which is in turn swathed in the
snowy linen.
The mirrors and open tiled freplaces
are hidden from sight by the snowy dra-
peries. Over the polished floors is
stretched carpet of heavy white canvas.

may seem, are favored by some OF the
fair young tars who soil the waters on
sunny summer days. Mrs. 1selin's suits
ale practical, and suggest that maybe
that dimpled little lady will handle the
sails with her own strong white hand.
Waterproof serge is the material used,
cream white. navy blue and deep red, the
Jackets have wide collars of white and
open over vests of white linen duck ur
silk. and the jaunty caps match the col.
ors of the suits. One very odd suit is
made with long coat instead Of regula-
ton blazer, of tan colored cloth. with
full plain skirt of tan. with bands of
white satin. The small sailcr hat of
VIII tie has simple band of tan colored
ribbon.
Mrs. Edwin D. Mo ryan, whose hus-
band owns the big schooner yacht Con-
stelaton. and halt dozen other crafts
of all types, cares more for yachting than
for anything on seaor land.

Summeriis rare season for the fortu-
nate servants who are left in charge of
these great houses. Below stairs it is
considered great honor to be SUNNI er
caretaker, as the work is nominal and
the enjoyments many. There is an abb
sence of the formal restrictions which
hold the servant in check the rest of the
year. and it is not a rare occurrence to
see several quiet eIowler parties in full
operation during the hot summer time
on sainted Fifth avenue. OF course
these functions are conducted with more
decorum than similar ones in the Fourth
ward, but THIS fact would not lessen the
offense if the mistress of the house knew
of them.

The white draped walls, staircase and
fioofs make these houses look like snow
palaces.
All OF the silver ana bric-a-brac is sent
to Tiffany's, to be thoroughly cleaned
and put in perfect order before it is
packed away in the iron-bo1nd cedar
chests. which are afterwards stored away
In various safe-ceposit vaults.
The art galleries in most of these
houses have no windows, hut are lighted
BY immense roofs of glass. When the
houses are closed for the summer, the
paintings are covered with white cheese
cloth and the statuary is dfaped in the
same soft, cllnging stuff. The outer roof
is fastened over the glass, and the room
is practically light-proof and dust-proof.
