NEW WOMAN IN LITERATURE.
Jeanette Glider Gives Her Ideas Concern
ing the Talked of Creature,

The new woman of the novelist is
merely one Ct DR.. Max Nordau's degen-
crates. She is the creation Of writer
who is hvsterical and degenerate, and
the world takes her as something that
really exists. To be sure, there are plenty
of women with "pasts" and with
"yearnings, and there always have
been and probably always will be, but |
doubt if any woman outside of an insane
asy lum talks the rubbish about spiritual
impacts, tells that I'VE are tones of ORC
chord. and about the vile slavery"
of marriage, as do the women of Miss
rendered aud Mr. Grant Allen Writers
of this sort do not represent the women
of the day any more than the painted
women Of the streets represent the wom-
en- Of good society.
The jaundiced writers of THE Vel
low Book caunot be expected to give
us pictures of healthy lives. Their tastes
run to worm eaten fruit. They have no
liking for that which is red with the
hue of health. They prefer the yellow
hue of decay. DR.. Nordau is quite right
when he calls it disease The heroines
of THE yellow Book, " Of "Discords"
and Of "Wreckage" might have been
taken from Lombroso's study Of tho fe-
male offender. If they exist outside of
their creator s brains, their cases will be
found recorded in scientific studies of
criminology or in the ordinary police re
ports.
The new woman as l find her outside
Of the pages of fiction is an industrious,
healthy minded, healthy bodied young
person, with IA certain amount Of indie
pendence, who cares more for out of door
sports than for indoor follies, and who
if she has work to do does it and does
not waste her time in telling about t.
Her spirits run high over the adventures
of "A Gentleman Of France, ," she laughs
and cries by turns over "Trilby" and
thinks THE Dolly Dialogues great
fun but for yellow Discords' and the
like she has no use.
am happy to say that little of the
hysterical literature of the day originates
in this country. 1t is almost entirely of
English origin. Some of our younger
writers have tried their hands at it, but
they do not take to it naturally, and it
Is fast going ont Of fashion.
There always will be a handful OF
people who like erotica, but think
there has been Il turn in the tide which
even at its highest never swamped the
writers Of purer fiction. Rudyard Kip
ling and Mrs. Humphrey Ward have
many more readers than Grant Allen
and Mary L. rendered, and in thia
country our writers of clean fiction are
the most popular. -Jeannette Glider.

ANOTHER DOSE OF TALK ON SAN

mittee on COmmeree-SenatOr Vest

r.-ashingion. May 1.-THE Senate had
another copiOus desc OF san Pedro and
santa Monica to-day. Three Of the mem

opnose the amendment offered by the
chairman Of the committee Mr.. Frye, des-
fznating Santa Monica as the place for
deep sea harbor in Southern California,
senator's Berry. dem, of Arkansas, Vest.
dem, Of Missouri and Cafery. dem, of
louisiana, submitted remarks against the
amendment, which Mr.. Berry described as
a most unjustihable and inexecusable at
tempt to overrule public sentiment and to
appropriate money in the interest of pri-
vate greed and private gain.
Mr. Vest argued against making an ap-
0ropriation for a breakwater, either at the
.ue place or the other; as in his judgment
there was no necessity for the expendi-
ture. and as the condition of the treasury
was such that an issue of bonds would be
necessary in a few months.
Mr Canery based his argument against
Santa Monica on the unanimous reports of
the two army engineers; and was reminded
in that connection of the success of the
Hsads scheme for deepening the approaches
10 New Orleans, in spite of the adverse
views of the army engineers.
Then the chairman of the committee. Mr..
Frye, rep, of Maine, commenced the task
of answering all the objections TO the com
mittee amendment, ana in doing so he
oulogized c. p. Huntington who had been
mentioned as a political factor in CalfOr-
mia. where "A mans chances for nOmina-
ton to an Office turned upon the fact
whether he was for or against II huntingdon.
the bill was laid aside till tomorrow, but
at that point, Mr. German gave notice of
an amendment limiting the annual eXpen-
diure under the pending and former river
and harbor bills to Sl0.OUO.O00.
Mr.. Teller reported a substitute for the
House bankruptcy bill, and Mr.. Mitchell,
rep, Of oregon, presented the views of
the minority of the judiciary committee
favorng the House bill. The House bill
provides for both voluntary and inVol-
untary bankruptcy; the Senate bill for
voluntary bankruptcy only.
The House joint resolution, providing
that the laws against the admission of
contract labor immigrants shall not be

ans and other labors necessary for the
preparation and installment of foreign
exhibits at the Nashville Centen.al eX-
hibitiou, and also providing for the ad-
mission Of exhibits free Of duty, was
passed.
The calendar of private pension bills
was taken up. After about a dozen was
passed further progress was blockaded
by an attempt OF Mr.. Allen, pop, Of Ne
braska, to have a second pension case
engrafted on a bill giving a pension to
the mother of an officer, and at 5:35 o clock
the Senate adjourned.
