Women in Germany.

The adoption in Germany of gen.
eral and common code of laws appi-
cable to all parts of the empire has
aroused the intense opposition Of the
women of that country to the new
code because of its discriminating
and oppressive features toward them.
Up to this time each subdivision of
the empire has had it's own laws.
Under the provisions of the new law
an unmarried woman is regarded as
almost equal to men concerning their
earnings and their incomes. AS soon
as a German becomes a wife and
mother she is booked as a minor. She
has no right over her fortune. She
cannot transact any business without
the signature of her husband.
Then the new law defines the power
of parents concerning the education
OF their children, placing it all in the
father. 1t denies divorce on accoun
of ill-treatment, drunkenness and
other offenses. The bill, which has
passed the Reichstag, does not become
law until 1900, and many women
are agitatlng the question of it's re-
consideration and repeal before that
time.

Guard of Utah, together with such IN
official suggestions concerning the
needs of the organization as may seem
TO the writer to be pertinent and
timely
In order to intelligeutly point out ac-
tual wants. the person, or aggregation
in need should be fully described and
the surrounding circumstances en-
laTged upon 10 the extent of the in
formation in the narrator's possession.
AT this juncture it is disclained by the
author that any intention of neglect is
manifest because of omission of detail
as to every organization in the guard.
SPACE forbids extensive notice of all
and general allusion will have 10 suf-
fee in many instances.
Utah territory had a militia force
dating from the year 1S4S, that follow
ing the entrance of the pioneers into
the valley of the Great Salt Lake. until
March 3, 1887, when by an act of con-
gress, it was disbanded, the act de-
claring all laws passed by the terrific
rial legislature for the organization of
a militia annulled and of no force and
effect. From that date, until March 8,
1894, the territory had no state troops,
although within a year or two of the
latter date there were two independent
military organizations in the city

TO lay down the most accurate Drin-
ciple. In his first inaugural address he
said: Considering standing armies as
dangerous to free governments in time
OF peace l shall not seek to enlarge
our present establishment. The bull
wark of our defense is the national
militia which must render us invincible.
Partial injuries and occasional morti-
fication we may be subjected to, but
million of armed freemen possessed
of the means of war can never be con-
quered by foreign foe"
1t has been demonstrated in all the
ages that militia, that is citizen
soldiery,. is the effective force. The
small army which fought back the OPP
preSsorS at Marathon were militia and
when the battle was ended each man
returned to his home and the avoca-
lions of civil life. 1t must be remem-
bered, too, in our day that the men
who fought from Lexington down to
Concord; who hurled back the columns
of King George at Bunker Hill; who
snatched the Hessians baldheaded at
Princeton; who Walloped Ferguson at
Kings Mountain and waded through
red coat ranks at Remington were all
militia.
But there is no use in writing an
essay. Suffice it to say that the guard
needs an appropriation for an encamp-
than $4,000 and will be money we'll ex-
pended.
While the men are doing fairly well
in acquiring the drill, there are portions
of tactical science which cannot be
taught in the armory nor on the
parade ground in any city or town.
Other states have these encampments

tenant Lassiter. who has worked as
siduously in the performance of the
duty to which he was assigned and
that the members of the guard owe
him a great deal for his labors-

ARRANGEMENT of the various organiza-
lions was affected whereby the Il COM
panies of infantry stationed at Salt

Henry Page being selected as colonel

A. Smith was elected to command this
organization some months ago.
The batteries have been running in

large standing army and maintain a
militia at the highest standard of
efficiency. The traditions of the party
are all in that direction In his sixth
annual address to congress, Washing
ton said: The devising and establish
ing of we'll regulated militia would
be general source of legislative honor
and a perfect title TO public gratitude. y
Jefferson, in his first message, re-
marked: Nor should we now. or at
any time separate until we can say
we have done everything for the
militia, which we could do were an
enemy at our DOORS
He followed this line in his second
message when he told congress-: 1.-The
militia is our general reliance for sud
den and great emergencies.
In his first inaugural address Mon
roe uttered these words: But it
ought to be held prominently in view
that the safety of these states and of
everything dear to a free people must
depend in an eminent degree on the
militia If formed on equal and just
principles it cannot be oppressive.
With such an organization of such a
people the United States have nothing
to dread from foreign invasion"

THE NEW ART.
Things of Interest to the Wood
Burner and Etcher.

J. William Fosdick in the Century:
AS of old, the master wood carvers and
violin makers boarded flawless wood.
so must the wood burner of today keep
a vigilant eye upon the lumber yards,
and lay ii a stock of fawless, dry
wood. His material cannot be too well
seasoned. 1t must be white. free from
gum, and soft. White because it con-
trasts and is wanted. and free from
rosin that it may not turn black with
age. AS it is the fibre of the wood
which is blackened or carbonized, not
the resin, it is obvious that the freer
the wood is from gunimy substance
the better. The most satisfactory fire
etching has been done on panels of
French poplar, which is soft, white.
close grained and free from gum. The
common white wood or yellow poplar
of America yields readily TO treatment
with the hot iron, and can be success
fully used in conjunction with harder.
rarer woods, as beneath the magic
touch OF the burning tool it becomes
rich and solid. The harder woods are
more difficult to work. but. by combin-
ing the natural grain of woods like
maple or oak with the rich burnt tones,
beautiful results may be obtained

pended in stores, ordnance and quar-
termaSter'S. OF this sum $6S,871 was
used up in ordnance, and armament
for the two batteries consuming more
than two-thirds of the sum. Governor
West is deserving of some credit for
diplomacy in securing eight 3.2-inch
breech loading riffed cannon for the
guard, and that, too, at time when
the regular service had not been sup
piled. The war DEPARTMENT did not
feel overjoyed when the discovery was
made, and would have gladly taken
the guns back for use in the army, but
the authorities here were very well
pleased and no change was made.
In addition to the eight cannons al
luded to. there are two Calling guns,
which are excellent additions to the
armament. Both are attached to the
First battery of this city.
Over $4,000 was expended in quarter
masters stores and clothing, and as a
result the guard is quite well equipped,
although there are some other articles
needed, which will no doubt be fur
nished very soon. The guard had
scarcely been mustered in ere compan-
les A and B were called into service
with the companies at Ogden and the
First battery of this city, on account
of the invasion of the So-called Kelly
army. The men were on duty for sew
eral days and acquitted themselves
honorably.
During the Indian troubles in the San
Juan, Captain Gibbs and Captain Can
non, now acknowledgement, were sent
by the governor to the scene with in
structions to investigate and report.
The two officers did the duty we'll and
were recommended for promotion.

sary for the expenses of the encamp-
ment, although the personal judgment
of the writer is that the entire sum may
not be needed Still, no niggardness
ought to be manifested, even if that be
the case. There are funds needed for
various supplies from time to time and a
small amount at the disposal of the
authorities is an absolute necessity.
1t is learned from the military au-
thorities, in fact Lieutenant Lassiter
recommends it in his report, that the
salary of the acknowledgement should
be sufficient to enable him to devote his
entire time to the duties of the place.
He could then be held strictly account
able for faithful performance of his
duty AS it is the meager amount
which he is paid is scarcely sufficient
for his personal. needs in maintaining
the dignity of his office.
There will no doubt be many who will
oppose what will be termed lavish ex-
penditure' in the maintenance of the
guard. In fact one or two have voiced
sentiments of this character already.
Opposition is expected and is courted,
