erary, social and political clubs proving
the fact.
In no department have women's tall
ents been so fully recognized as in
music, but up to a short time ago they
received recognition only as solo per-
formers, the experiment of welding
number of them together for ensemble
playing never having been tried.
In Europe for quite a number of
years women orchestras have been
quite common, Germany being prolific
in such organizations. Verona, that
city of decadent prosperity commercial
ly, is still the home of music, the
largest theater there Boosting of
fine orchestra. Although the members
are of the male sex, the conductors
baton is welded by Nine. Rieschi, who
has made quite reputation as an i'm
presario. In unprogreSSiVe Italy the
spectacle of woman leading number
of men seems an anomaly, for women
all over that little kingdom are still
dominated by the sterncr sex. They are,
however, fast Kidding themselves of the
shackles of custom and are shaping
their lives according to their own incli-
nations.
A few women's orchestras mostly
composed of Germans, have played in
beer saloons and some ordinary the
alters in New York. Their influence
was trifling and their members few.
Orchestral work for women in Amer
lea opens a new field for those endow
ed with a good musical education.
Mrs. Marietta Sherman Raymond of
Boston was the first American to con-
ceive the idea of banding her own sex
into a musical organization. This she
successfully accomplished, and under
her able leadership the Beacon Hill
Orchestral club prospered. Most of the
performers are American girls who
have received their education in the
New England conservatory. They clear
ly demonstrate the ability of women to
succeed in this sphere of work.
These ladies seldom play out of New
England, their time being fully occu-
pied with engagements in and around
Boston. During the summer they de-
light audiences at the large watering
places, giving concerts at Mount Nc
Gregor and other resorts. These NIL
sicians dress thstefully and present
more interesting appearance than the
same number of black coated men. Mrs.
Raymond, a fine looking woman, is
dignified and tactful ruling her little
band with rare judgment and conduct
ing with skill.
She is thorough musician, is one of

we are spoken of as mean" Care as
to the amount of food used, the quanti-
ty of coal burned, of gas lighted or
consideration given to clothes is never
proper in the eye of a domestic servant.
1t is simply an evidence of close listed
ness. Care for something because it is
beautiful, because it was given to you
by somebody you loved, is Greek to
the average servant Dishes and glasses
were made to break, and if you bother
people to dust bric-a-brac you must
expect it to suffer. The average maid
servant not only believes that dust is
the bloom of time, but also that it
should be a never fading blossom.
1t is all wrong. But how are we going
to straighten it? Sometimes you do
meet a domestic servant who counts
her word as worth something and who
does not claim to be able to do every
thing. But why is it that all are so
positively unwilling to learn? If you

too often the employee does bad work
because the employer accepts it, Too
often the employer pays high wages for
work that is done in the most slovenly
manner, the idea seeming to be that
to get the work done, no matter how, is
the acme Of happiness. To do it we'll is
counted as of no worth. You know per-
fectly well that, although Caroline,
Maggie or Jane may have five tall
feathers in her hat and a frock Of the
newest fashion, her underwear is torn,
tattered, miserably poor and positively
untidy. You use all your diplomacy
in trying to frame a sentence that will
suggest to Caroline or Maggie or Jane
the desirability of a bath at least once
in awhile, and yet little Miss Industry,
who is busy down town, is only too glad
to walk home one day in the week that
she may give 10 cents to the chamber
maid in her boarding house to get the
bath washed out so she can use it. But
Caroline Maggie or Jane does not ap-
preciate the blessing of personal clean
illness. She thinks it all nmsense.
Perhaps you think this is severe, you
who have not been the mistress of a
manse or a fiat. But to wrestle, lit
orally and physically, day in and day
out, with ignorance, ingratitude, laZi-
ness and slovenliness and a certain
particularly impertinent self satisfac-
ton is more than merely difficult. 1t
is time somebody spoke for the mis-
tress. What can you or /, we who are
just ordinary women, do? I'll tell you
what | do-just make the best of a
bad bargain. | realize that the maid
in my kitchen is capable of just so
much that is good and of much that is
Indifferent. l have long ago learned
that If / allow myself to have a feeling
of friendship for any special maid | am
going to have my heart hurt But /
would rather have my heart hurt than
allow myself to grow hard hearted You
and /, who try to live good lives, never
refuse to allow maid to go to which
ever church she pleases or to have time
to give proper attention to her religious
duties, but when she claims to be a
church member surely we have a right
to expect something that is good from
her. We must set the example; but that
given, certainly there should be enough
womanliness in her to follow in the
right path.

THEY ARE FRIENDS.

A strange instance of fellowship be- tween members of the lower orders of nature may be witnessed at the home of Frederick Baker, 90 Stratford ave- nue, Bridgeport. MT. Baker is the own CT of bulldog, which is not st all so- ciable by nature, but is better calculat- ed for watch dog purposes than for a pet. One of his neighbors, he does not know which, until two weeks ago had a big Braham rooster. He has the fowl no longer, for it and the bull have form ed copartnership and since the day of their meeting they have been insep- erable. The rooster occupies a portion of the bull dogs house, sleeping under the animals forelegs When the dog Is fed the rooster trots out and helps him. self to half of his rations of bull dog hash" to which proceeding the dog makes not the slightest objection, al- though no other living thing could look upon his food with envious eyes and live. Each follows the other about the premises, and each appears to be as jealous of the other as young woman of her lover.

PROVIDENCE vs. NEW HAVEN.

 A Very Fast Game Yesterday After
 noon-Blues Played the Best Game
 but Had Hard Luck in Scoring-Bone
 and I.eydon Put up a Star Game
 Score 5 to 4.
 The 2,000 spectators who witnessed the polo game between Providence and New Haven at Bowling hall yesterday afternoon, were highly satisfied with the game that both teams put up. Not for many day has there been such a fast and closely contested game of really genuine polo played. It was any teams game until within two minutes of the call of time, when Pierce got the ball and sent it past Lation's and put the result be- yond doubt It was a fine game, full of pretty individual plays by Bone, Ley den and Pierce for which they were roundly applauded. The Blues played by far the best and most aggressive game of the two, and but for the hard luck that seemed to follow them from start to finish would undoubtedly have scored victory. Heffernan foul- ed Bone in a very mean manner just as the latter was finishing brilliant run in which he would assuredly have SCOT ed had the Greys' goal tender not de- liberately rushed out and clutched him tightly round the body as he was about to drive the ball into the cage. And the audience showed it's disapproval of his act in no uncertain tone of voice. As it was the spectators were sorry the game did not end in the Blues favor But they left the rink satisfied that for once the best team did not win.
