OLNEY'S MYSTERIOUS TRIP.
The Motive for Hi. Recent BostU
Visit Not KQOwn

The Motive for His Recent Boston
Visit Not Known.
Secretary Olney retarned to Washington
today and was in attendance this after
noon upon the Cabinet meeting. He has
been absent at his home in Boston.
The Seoretary's return was as mysterious
his going a WHY and the utmost secrecy
was observed at the State Department
concerning IL. The clerks declined to say
whether or not he was again in the city.
While 1T is believed that Mr.. Olney's
trip to Boston was upon purely personal
business matters, there are those who
think that the Presidential bee is begin
ming to buzz igorously about his head, and
that he went home to look after his
fences. 1t is pointed out that he has no lieu
most likely for him TO begin labors at home.
1t is not conceived that there was any
significance in the Secretary's mission to
Boston. as Tar as his relations with the
President arc. osnce1ued- Many now bei

perfectly friepHy. ".
II is even Intimate that Secretary Olney
was not the author OF the original statement

is now attributed toa anothercabinet officer.

1t was at the sOda-bar OF q Pennsyl-
vania avenue drugstore that Times
reporter first came in contact with that
riend," and discovered the enormous pro-
portions the salc or various stimulating
drugs under the guisc OF tOnics has as
sumed within the last year.
There are dozens of such preparations,
many OF which contain alcohol, and their
effect upon ones system. physicians say,
Is worse, eventually, than excessive in
dulgcnce in uBdisguiscd whisky. Some of
these tOnics have medicinal value, and are
intended, If rightly used, TO tone up the
system and act as Il nervine. but when.
taken as n leverage. and with frequency,
they have an exactly opposite effect.
The tonic fiend is a Tyre easily Tecog-
nized. His eyes are his most marked
characteristics. They become CLASSY and
staring, and their expression changes as
the effect OF one drink wears Off until
1t is renewed by another. His cheeks, too,
have an unnatural color. and the small
veins in his face stand out redly, as III
the nose OF an Old toper.
The peculiar odor OF the beverage is ON
his breath and seems TO envelop him. He
is never natural-always oyer-stimuated or
depressed. according to the time that has
elapsed since his last dose.
The Times man watched the effect of a
glass OF the stuff on the fiend who came
under his observation. He walked up 10
the counter and scanned the row of syrup

for intellectual, economic and
political emancipation and equality,
in order that she might help man
to fight the common enemies of
their common lives She has
gained intellectual and economic
equality. The schools are open to
her, and the places Of work. She
now waits for political equality to
put her on absolute equality with
men," After giving strong argu-
ments TO show that it is both right
and expedient for women to vote,
Mr.. Rose closed with an appeal to
women tie seek the ballot, if not for
their own sakes, then for the sake
of their needy sisters and our needy
Government; also with an appeal
to men to be honorable and fair
enough to grant it. This was .
very different lecture from what
Mr. Rose intended when he began
to prepare for it. An Auburn
correspondent Of the Lewiston
Journal writes:
Rev. Henry R. Rose Gays he be-
came converted to woman suffrage
in the preparation of the lecture he
delivered last Sunday. For several
years he had been gathering ma
terial against the reform, and when
he started in to prepare this lee
ture, he started in to oppose suf-
frage for women; but the more he
read both sides, and the more he
weighed the arguments in the af-
Primitive, and the more deeply he
looked into the subject, the more
he became convinced that women
had the right to vote and ought to
be given it, and SO he advocated it,
and took his audience with him
through the same process of reason
ing that led to his conversion and
conviction.
