STOMACH SEEN BY K RAYS.
Chicago Medical Society watches
the Organ Performing Its
Functions.

The human stomach performing its
digestive functions was shown to the
medical fraternity OF Chicago the other
evening through the agency of the X
rays at the meeting OF the Chicago med
ical society. A short paper upon the
possibilities of the X-ray in the med
ical profession was read by DR.. Metcalf,
the demOnstratOr for the evening, after
which the practical test was given.
The machine was taken into q dark
ened room, the subject produced and
the test made. The light was slowly
turned upon the subject and gradually
as the light grew stronger the stom-
ach was seen performing its work. The
stomach, which was plainly outlined
upon the microscope, was In full &c

Il became convinced that could make
use of the X-Tays In tha study of the

What Constitutes an Educated"
WOman2

The Rev. Phebe Hanaford says that
'an educated woman" is "a Jewel on
the brow of society"
But-what constitutes an educated
woman?
An educated" man is one who has
the knowledge that will enable him to
pursue with success some one occupa-
tlon In which muscle is subordinate to
brain. But woman, more complex than
man in other respects, is more complex
here also. Her usual occupation diff
fers with her age, with her clrcum-
stances, with her incllnations. 1t is
not fixture, as is mans business or
profession.
For example, the chief occupation of
the average young woman, as society
is now constituted, is husband-gebting.
This is serious, often a wearlsome
and dlsheartening occupation. Obvi-
ously the best possible equipment of
education is none too good for it. But
what constitutes an educated" woman
in the business or profession of hus-
band-winning?
What attracts one man gives wings
to another's heels. What fascinates a
man one day terrifies him the next
The arts that inflamed the lover may
throw a glamour over the marriage al
tar. When then can woman be said
to be educated" in this great and alb
sorbing industry?
Again, there is the occupation of
husband holding second in import
ance with the vast majority of woman
kind to the occupation above mention
ed True, the law and the policeman
are of great assistance in husband
holding, but there are, as we all know,
millions of women VINO are so well
educated" in this profession that they
have never been compelled even to
threaten to invoke the aid of the law.
What constituts an educated" woman
in this respect?
Then there is the business of house,
keeping-a great industry, requiring
the exercise of the highest talents
calling for a most elaborate "educa-
tlon." And there is the profession of
motherhood, the profession Of "enter-
tanning" the profession of getting old
slowly and gracefully, not to speak Of
the professions pursued by those wom-
en- who from choice or necessity enter
into competition with men in business,
the law, preaching, medicine, etc.
Unless a college woman purposes to
enter this competition and to adhere
rigidly to 1t she cannot truthfully be
ca4ed an educated" woman because
of a college education. Indeed, she
may have learned nothing at college
that will aid her in the sligh lest de-
gree in any one of the principle female
occupations. On the contrary, she may
have absolutely untitled herself for
husband-getting, etc.
What then, we repeat, constitutes
the educated" woman? 1t is import
ant that all should know-as import
ant for the fathers and brothers and
for men with intentions" as for
mothers and their marriageable
daughters New York World.

Ancient American Sleeping Cars.

L. Xavire Eyma, Frenchman, who
came to this country in 1847, wrote an
article in ILLUSTRATION OF Paris, pub
lIshed July 22, 184S, giving his exper-
iences on the railroads of the United
States.He says that at that lime the
baltimore & Ohio railroad had a
length of seventy leagues and that the
cost Of the road was 4,116,744 francs,
the receipts 39SS, ,456 francs and expen-
ses 1, 964741 francs. He also gives
considerable space to the interior ar
rangements of the sleeping cars used
at that time and says that, they are
actually houses where nothing is lack
ing for the necessity OF life and are dl-
vIded into compartments and sleeping
rooms, some for men and some for
women" Each \ OIn held six beds, or
rather little eouches in three tiers
along the sides. He winds up his ac-,
count by saying that ValuableS were
not particularly we'll taken care OF, as
in America there were no such things
as sneak thieves" I"

FLOCKING TO HAWAII
Rapid Increase In Immigration Of
Japanese Causes Alarm.
Twelve ThOusaRd of Thena Have Ar
rived In the Islands since They
Were Annexed TO the H
United States.

The rapid increase of Japanese i'm
migration into Hawaii has attracted the
serious attention of the authorities at
Washington Of late, and several official
Inquiries have been set on foot to learn
the extent of the invasion and how It
can bo checked. The reports received
by the immigration authorities are in
line with press dispatches stating that
the influx Is steadily increasing. One
official report from United States i'm
spector stationed at Honolulu states
that $4,000 Japanese have arrived since
the islands were annexed to the United
States. He also reports that In HIS
opinion the total population of Asiatics
by the end of the present year will ex-
ceed tho total population of Gil other
nationslities. Another official report
comes from an inspector stationed on
the Pacific coast who was sent on q
special mission to investigate the
causes of this influx. He visited Japan
as well as Hawaii and the facts he OBJ
tanned are expected to shed much light
on the causes leading up to the recent
heavy arrivals Of Asiatics. Thus far only
his preliminary report has beens%re-
ceived, and this. It is understood, bears
out the previous reports as to the ex-
tent Of this immigration and the menac-
ing results which arise from IL.
At the japanese legation II is said
that the coming of japanese to Hawaii
presents no new serious question. An
official Of the legation saidi
"Since the islands were annexed to
the United States, Hawaiian affairs af-
fecting Japan come under the legation
here. But we have had no recent re-
ports showing an alarming increase In
the immigration. On the contrary, we
are inclined to believe It. will fall on
by the expiration of the three-year
term which the immigrants spend
abroad. At any rate an influx of
Japanese can have no political sig
nihcAnce whatever, and 1t would
amount to nothing II the reports were
true that they would outnumber other
nationslities. They have no vote, so
that their influence is not exerted In
shaping the affairs of the islands. From
all the information reaching us, we feel
that nothing is to be Rpprehended BY
the arrival Of Japanese In Hawaii and
that their presence is Of positive benefit,
If not essential, TO the development Of
the islands,"

Warner Deserts Silver.

Slowly and sadly, but none the less
surely free silver is losing its glamour
for even the erstwhile most rampant
sixteen to one Democrat. The Hon.
Adoniram Judson Warner, of Marietta,
father OF the Bimetalhc league and
shouter for free silver ever since the
"crime of '73" was discovered. woeful-
ly admits that present conditions have
forced his hobby into a rear pew. He
startled his political friends in Wash
ington the other day by the straight
out declaration that silver must be a
secondary issue in the next campaign
THE Democratic party" he says,
will stand by the Chicago platform.
The money plank will be as full and
strong as if there We're no other issue.
The money question has lost none of
its impC rtance, but in the meantime
other questions OF greater Importance
have arisen. l would be in favor of
making a declaration against trusts
as If that were the only issue, and the
same against Imperialism and the
Philippine war. Within short time
the country will awaken to the exist
ence of three stupendous comblna-
tlons working together and controlling
minor contributing trusts.
First, there will be a combination
OF the great lines of transportation
next in importance, and ultimately con-
trolling the rest, is the banking COM
blnation, and third, the great iron aud
steel combination. 1t will not be long
In nay judgment, before these combin-
atiCns represent capitalization; Of
$1,000, 100000, and they now present
the problem of the utmost importance,
demanding the immediate attention of
the American people and taking pre-
cedence over all others, for they will
reduce the amount of labor employed,
determine the price of products and
destroy competition.
made at The next congress to redeem
the greenbacks and give the nationll
banks entire control of the currency.
This phase of the money question is
likely to attract more attention for the
time being than free silver coinage.
None the less they are deceived who
think the silver question finally settled
There was much wisdom in the reply
Jf the Scotch preacher when his con-
gregatiop wanted him to pray for raia.
Yes he replied, when the wind ga's
in the right uqarter."
From this it is inferred that Mr..
Warner believes that further discus
sion of the SILVER question would bet
ter be postponed until the conditions
are more favorable, and his sugges-
tions are likely to create considerable
discussion throughout the country
Nearly everybody who is unbiased will
agree with General Warner that this
is poor time to advocate a depreciat-
ed currency. At the same time they
will not agree with him that the coun-
try Is going to the demnition bow
vows in other directions. Mr.. Warner
is SIMPLY seeking fresh cause for grief |
The mOurners at the free silver altar
are so scarce that he finds it unprofit-
abel to weep with them, hence the
transfer Of his woe,-Times Recorder
