Is All Wrong.

BERLIN, Oct. 5.-In America the op-
ponents of female suffrage point with
peculiar emphasis to the quiet home in
fiuences that surround the life OF the
German woman. They say there is no
crying demand for suffrage or for eman-
cipation in the circles Of the German
American "hausfrau." They assert
that their societies are all of a charita-
BILE nature, and that their efforts are di-
rected solely to beautifying and hal
lowing the little spot over which each
dominates.
All of this is intensely rhapsodical.
and some of 1t is true. But to one who,
like 1, has lived for months In q cir

to be taking advantage Of the boom,
including lawyers. doctors, and profess
sional men of all kinds, but for working
men at present, it offers no inducement.
A new stage line will start next week
from Barstow on the Southern Califor-
mia railroad. The stage ride will be tbs

ing to the miners of this camp, they all
acknowledge that the ore is here, and
several old California miners claim 1t
to be ahead of any other California dis
covery, while Cripple Creek men claim
there Is more ore in sight here now,
than there was in Cripple Creek two
years after 1t was discovered.
Everyone seems to be preparing for

1t does not require an expert to judge
the camp, as the ore is here with the

The new woman" of Germany is a
creation charaacteristically "Deutsch"
and radically different from the ad-
vanced American idea. Her battle Is not
alone for suffrage, but principally for
the extension of the field of womans S
work. And in this direction she has ac
complished wonders, largely by reason
of a genius for organization and for
united work.
There is nothing spasmodic in her eff
forts; no contest for individual su-
premacy. The German women work to-
gether like the wheels of clock, each
fitting accurately to the part assigned.
THE CHIEF WORKER
At the head of this movement is the
famous Nine. Auguste Schmidt of Leip-
full woman founded what she termed
the National German Woman's So
ciety." While in this early work the
scope of the organization was limited
and while it's entire territory was
bounded by the limits of Leipsic, the
name adopted. Today Nine. Schmidt is
the president Of the United Woman's
societies of Germany and Austria. Ne.4
to the name of Nine. Schmidt comes
that of Nine. Schepeler-Lette of Berlin,
with whose work all continental Eu-
IL
forts that the famous 'Lette verein" Of
Berlin was formed, and today. although
nearly septuagenarian, she is still at
the head of perhaps the most successful
woman's industrial society in exist
ence.
The "Lette verein" was really estab-
lished by the father of Nine. Schepeler-
Lette in 1866, but only. at the instigation
of his philanthropic daughter. The pur-
pose of the society is to teach young
women the trades and professions to
which they seem best adapted In 1865
building, and thirty-four pupils at
tended. Today the usual attendance in
the four massive buildings Of the "Lette
Verein" Is over 1000.
Each of these buildings has not alone
schoolrooms, but a restaurant and a
games and files OF newspapers from all
parts of the globe. In these buildings
girls. are taught typesetting, stenog-
raphy, typewriting, photography, sew
ing, knitting, crocheting, hairdressing,
manicuring, millinery. dressmaking,
cooking, aye. even washing and ironing
In another department painting, sculp-
ture, designing on cloth and like profess
sions are taught Fully 700 or 300 girls
are supplied with positions through the
Lette Headquarters annually.
But this simply shows one direction in
which these German women have worked
for the advancement of their sex The
vice president of the united societies is
Dr. Henrietta Goldschmidt, the most
celebrated of FroebePs disciples. The
distinct societies founded by her are
The Society for Popular Education, The
Public kindergarten society The Sem

So it will be seen that the German wo-
man is battling all along the line, devel-
oping new ideas for the advancement OF
her sex and demonstrating by practical
work that she is worthy Of leading in
the war for the emancipation of her sex.
