WHERE WOMEN VOTE.
Extent of the Suffrage Rights Thus
Far Granted the Gentle Sex.

GNtcNO on lilS 0uUTdRC 1tRusS tnuS
Far Granted the Gentle Sex.
While woman suffrage has met
with many set-backs, yet it has won
many great victories. The move
ment to obtain suffrage for women is
world wide. There are few coun
tries in Europe and few states in
the union that have not granted
women some form of suffrage. So
that the question: Where do women
vote? might be answered by asking:
Where do they not vote? And some
account Of the suffrage rights thus
far granted to women may be of in
terest.
Perhaps the greatest progress has
been made in the United States.
For a majority of the states
less than % or 30 states-have given
women suffrage of one kind or
another. The most common form is
the power to vote at school elections
Thus far woman suffrage has
found but little encouragement in
the large and important states of
the union; for example, in New
York, Pennsylvania or Illinois. The
New York legislature passed law
permi tting women to vote for school
officers, but in 1893 the act was de-
clared unconstitutional the reason
being that the word male was
used in the state cons titution as
qualification of voters.
The only countries of Europe
where women vote to any extent
are in those places that we would
least expect it; for example, in Fin
land and Iceland. On the continent
the woman suffrage movement has
made no great Roadway of late
years. The women have no voting
privileges to speak of in either
France or Germany. In several
European countries they are allowed
to vote by proxy. Thus, in the
Austrian provinces women can vote
for members Of the provincial and
imperial parliaments, but by proxy.
They can vote in person at local
elections. The same is true of Rus
STA, where women who are heads of
households vote at local elections.
AS to the widows, they have the
right to vote at municipal elections
in Belgium, while in Italy they can
vote for members Of parliament. -

MEMORY.
Attains Its Maximum Extent in the
SomnambuIistic S Safe.

Attains Its Maximum Extent in the
SomnambuIistic S .ate.
Two fundamental elements consti-
tute personality--memory and char
acter. In the latter respect, as to
character, induced somnamoulism is
not perhaps always clearly distin-
guishable from the waking state. 1t
frequently happens that the SOM
nambulist does not relinqush the
character that he had before he was
put to sleep. The reasons are mani
fold. This does not, however, hold
for the second element of personal
ity-memory. 1t has long been said
that memory supplies the chief sign
by which the new state may be dis
tinguished from the normal state.
The somnambulist shows, in fact, a
curious modification in the range of
his memory; the same regular phe-
nomena of amnesia may be produced
in him as occur in the spontaneous
variations of personality.
Two propositions sum up the prin-
cipal notifications of memory which
accompany induced hypnotic SOM
nambulism; first, the subject recalls
during his waking state none of the
events which happened during SOM
nambulism; and second, on the other
hand, when put in the somnambu-
listic state he may remember not
only the previous somnambulistic
states, but also events belonging to
his waking state 1t follows that
memory attains its maximum extent
in somnambulism, since it then en-
braces two psychological existences
at once, as the normal memory
never does. 1t may even be re-
marked that the somnambulist,
when he endeavors to recollect GER
tain particulars, has better memory
than the same person awake. Cur
ney has shown, moreover from
studies of hysterical patients, that
somnambulistic states may persist
in the waking life; that the SOM
nambulistic ego, the second condi-
ton, is not always completely ef-
faced when the waking state re-
turns, but survives, coexists with
normal thought, and gives rise to
complex phenomena of division of
consciousness. Alfred Binet, in

the conclusion that the tradition
had, like many such legends, grown
out Of the name. Later inquiries,
however, have led me to believe
that this conclusion was too hastily
formed, aud that tho name, which
may be briefly rendered "the
wampum- belt MAKER" was one Of
those titles which were not infre-
quently given by the lroquois to a
member of the tribe TO comment
crate some notable achievement
which he had effected. Its date
would then as has been said, be
that of the formation of the lroquois
confederacy. This date was fixed
by the estimates severally made at
the different times by my friend
Hon. L. H. Morgan and myself, in
accordance with the testimony of
the leading Iroquois chiefs, at about
the middle of the fifteenth century,
or, more precisely, about the year
1859. Other investigators, whose
views are entitled to espectful con-
including Rev. DIR.
Beauchamp and Mr.. ]. N. B.
Hewitt, have been inclined to place
the formation of the league at a
later time. But their conclusions
differ considerably, and fail to ac-
count for many important facts. =
