4 Woman In It. Z

The lecture delivered by Prof,
w. p. Wiley at the Court House
Thursday night was a finished
production. and one Of great
literary merit.
Said he In part:
..In everything there has been
q woman in it. In every epoch
Of the worlds progress she has
been the magnetic force that has
lifted it to a higher plane. /"
II maintain tonight. not as a
mere matter of gallantry or
romance. but as matter of
philosophy, and, if you please,
OF practical business significance,
that the most important fact in
history, in philosophy; is the
position of woman. Do not
deprecate that assertion, for l
am not romantic. lam prepared,
from the unimpeached testimony
of history, to prove that nearly
every important epoch in the
annals of the human race has
turned upon a woman"
"There has been a woman in
it in almost every instance. The
revolutions, the reformations,
the great crises that swayed
nations, have, as / said, turned
upon a woman.
But to begin at the beginning,
when there was but one man and
one woman, standing alone IN
the solitude and grandeur of thar
garden which God had planted
with every tree that was good
to the sight and taste.
"a certain issue was presented
to them,-the choice between
good and evil.
That was a supreme moment
upon which hung the destinies
of the race. for time and eternity.
"The woman decided. At least
man said she did, ana he would
have decided otherwise il left to
himself. His curiosity was not so
intensely developed as hers. She
took the forbidden fruit, and
gave it TO him. He has been
eating bread in the sweat of his
brow ever since. There is no
event in the history of the world
that can not be traced directly
to the mistake of the first wo-
man. Verify there was a woman
in that
The speaker then pointed out
the fact that woman had played
an imp ortant part in all the great
crises Of history.
He drew illustrations from Ro-
man history, citing Lucretia,
Cleopatra, and Eudoxia as ex.
amples of momentous turning.
points in the affairs of Rome. He
then referred to the influence
welded by Queen Isabella, Marie
Antoinette, Catharine de Medici,
and our own Harriet Beecher
Stowe.
The coming woman, said he,
will be woman. She will be
an educated woman. l think the
coming woman will continue to
marry,-if she gets a chance.
She is surely coming to oc.
cupy a higher plane in the body
polite. You may call her the
new woman" if you like. But
by that prhase do not understand
me to mean the thing that rides
a bicycle and wants to wear her
pants in her boots. The ideal

Admitted Church UbnneI ro-morroU

At United Church Chapel Tomorrow Even-
 ing by Professor Pomorsky, an Escaped
 EHile-Russlau Music and Songs.
 Professor Boris PomorslSy, formerly professor of philology in the Univer- sity of St. Petersburg, will lecture at the United church chapel tomorrow evening on Wonders of Russia and Siberia and the Stundists."
 Professor Pomorsky, who is about thirty-eight years of age, was exiled 10 Siberia about three years ago for political reasons and while on the way with a party of exlles from Irkutsk in Siberia to Kamchatka escaped from the guard twenty-seven months ago, lie came to this country and has been here about twenty-three months. He taught for while in California and has recently obtained amnesty papers from the Russian government and Is now featuring to obtain money to pay his way back to Russia. He has lectured in various cities and at the University of Pennsylvania. He hopes to regain his position in St. Petersburg on his return to Russia, as he says a more liberal sentiment prevails there now than at the time of his exile. Besides the lecture the professor will render Russian music of his own composition and will sing songs of that country in the Russian language and the Tartar dialect. Besides the lecture in United church chapel he will also lecture at the German Baptist church Friday evening of this week and at Dwight hall to stu dents only next Monday evening. He is said to have an extensive knowledge of the life and condition of the Russian people. The lecture viii be free, but a collection will be taken up to aid him in returning to his native land His property in Russia has all been confis- Cated. His native town is i'll Eastern Russia, near the Ural mountains.
