R%ECOG NITION DAY.
Ohautauqua Assembly Closes To-day-A
Profitable Intellectual Sesslon-Robt.
Mcintyre, Campfire and Gradu-
ating Exercise.


Sunny side OF Soldier Life" drew q
large audience yesterday afternoon the
s~prinkling of old soldiers being peroepti-
bly, increased. The audience was we'll
repaid. The effort was a brilliant one.
DR.. Mcintyre eschewd politics, depicted
the scenes Of separation from home,
death on the obattle field, and life in
camp. To the "boys who never came
back" he paid a fervent, eloquent need
Of praise; to those who did come back
he paid a like patriotic eulogium. 1t is
impossible to desribe his lecture or TO
even tell what he said, for such an ora
ton connot be portrayed in words. The
narrative, the description, pathos, SYM
pathy, tone and gesture that go to pro.
duce feeling and convection were all em-
ployed by the speaker in delineating the
life OF the soldier He held the audience
in b~reathless suspense a he described
the great battle Of Mission Ridge ard
Lookout Mountain. Few orators could
describe a scene so thrilling, so wildly
for sc long a time and not loose control
Of himself or his audience. But No
Intyre is a marvel Of eloquence and
sustained force. At the campfire last
evening another happy time was enjoyed
by the veterans on the ground. The
band inspired with patriotic pieces, Prof.
Dana talked, Mics Chambers sang, Miss
La Pearl Wood recited and q number Of
old soldiers -Capt. January, Comrades
Preston, Metcalf and others filed up the
evening with pleasing "reminiscences,
making it an occasion long to be remem-
bered.
At the close of the afternoon lecture
President Williamson made q financial
statement Of the condition of the associ.
alton showing that arrangements had
been made to wipe out the entire indebt-
edness Of the association il the expenses
Of the present year could be met. But
owing to other unusual attractions in
the state during this assembly the at
tendance had been light, gate receipts
falling about s4OO short Of last year and
hotel patronage light, falling sAOO short
in that time. The expenses Of the asso.
citation however had been less, and the
deficit in all was 500. II this could be
met, the association would start out
next year without q cent Of debt any
where. II it was not, everything 90 far
attained would fall to the ground.
What should be done? An appeal was
made to the audience and assoc raised
on the spot. The balance will be raised
to day,
The closing of the various school and
circle departments to-day ELECTED many
regrets, many pleasant r~ecolleotions
Of useful and happy hoars spent on the
Assembly ground. In every educational
sense the present has been as great q
success for q Chautauqua as ever held
on these grounds. With the lifting of
financial burdens, the prospect for the
future is brighter than ever.

rated with green leaves, boughs, leaf-cov-

THE INDIVIDUALITY OF WOMEN.


In dealing with the so-called woman
quetion." one OF the most usual errors
which is encountered on both sides is
the persistent habit of regarding worn
en-. not as individuals, but as class
apart, who may be depended upon to
think and act alike on all questions.
The very phrases woman question" 3"
'women's sphere" show how cunningIy
this fallacy creeps into all discussions.
One never hears of a mans question.
1t is simply taken for granted that a
man does what he chooses in the world
conditions simply by natural. not arti-
fetal limitations. Were women treated
as individuals and not en- masse, their
position would be the same. And what
is of the greatest Importance, the nat
ural differences Of sex would show
themselves, as they have never yet had
a chance of doing. No one'will serious
ly attempt to deny that the maternal
function constitutes a vast difference
what this difference consists and how
far 1t goes has never yet been ascer-
tained. because the path Of women has
been. for the most part, marked out for
them and they have had no choice but
to walk therein, or forfeit many things
which women. and men also, hold dear.
Whenever a woman, driven by pres
sure of her genius, has released herself
from the trammels which surround her
and insisted upon living her own life,
il is usually asserted either that she is
a cold-blooded creature without natural
affections, or that no woman can really
excel in what are known as masculine
pursuits, because her craving to be
loved is sure to dominate her.
Sonya Kovalevsky, the gifted and
fiery Russian mathematician, is often
held up as an example Of the latter
and true it is that her head and heart
strove together in often passionate
strife. But this was not because she
was woman.
Keats and Chopin undoubtedly died
earlier because of their love affairs
at least, their deaths, it is often said,
were FASTENED thereby,-and no woman
could do more than die for love yet it
is not asserted that men should not be
geniuses because they are prone to fall
in love.
1t is not within the province Of this
article to deal with the undoubted nat
ural limitations of the women who
choose marriage and motherhood; it is
merely intended to maintain the right
of every individual to select his or her
craeer at will, and to assert that it is
no more the duty of every woman to
choose marriage and motherhood than
it is that of every man to choose
and fatherhood. once chosen,
the duty of the mother to devote her.
self to children is clear. because that
is a duty which cannot be filled by
man. SO far. nature has clearly indi
Gated the path of each seX,-beyond
that let no man dare to place fetters
IN the individual soul, or arrogate to
himself the functions Of Diety, and say
Thus far and no farther"

fair sample of the condition of
things II is the largest county out
side of Cook and gives the largest
Democratic majority usually. OF the
voters who cast their ballots for Cleve-
land in 1892, at least $500 will not vote
for Bryan. on the other hand. there
are not 200 Republicans who will vote
for him There is no silver organiza-
tion there, and that is true Of the
counties generally in the state There
is no bolt among the Republican far
mers Of the northern part of Illinois
The opposition to Bryan among Demo-
Gratis is not confined to the Germans
alone, but the old-line Irish Democrats
as we'll refuse to support him."
