nominated and elected j. A.

The only use the Democratic Or

to obtain votes from them. Some.
times a nomination is given by
the Democrats to the country dis.

votes to some Of the Democratic

given the postoffice to . worthy

A.TYPE OF NEW I.DMAN.

A good many people have been in
clined to be skeptical of the existence Of
the so-called new woman, believing her
to be largely creature Of the magma
ton Of the funny men of the press, who
are always saying mean things about
the fair sex, but the cold fact of the
actual existence of the new woman in at
least one New York household comes to
light through the police blotter of a
precinct station house Of the metrop-
oils.
One Peter Calls who was arrested
for being drunk, gave his occupation to
the police sergeant at the desk as
''housekeeper." This interested the
police, who set on foot investigations
which resulted in disclosing the fact
that Calls and his wife and grown
daughter were really Of the new"
order. The wife and daughter work
every day at a bolt and nut works and
the husband attends to the household
work, washes, scrubs and sweeps, bit
doesn't have baby to care for.
The other day he took a day off and
got drunk. and then acted like anything
but good 'housekeeper," for the Ian
guage he used to the arresting officer
would not be tolerated by the head of
any family.
Whether Mr.. Calls was driven to in
toxication as a refuge from the hard
ships of his new" life or has not We.
overcome the habits formed during his
old existence is a matter that ought to
be determined in the interest of others
who may be contemplating the new ex.
istence.
Mr.. Calls and his household or we
should say Mrs. Calls and her house
hold, should undergo further investi-
cation for the benefit Of deeply inter-
ested society
