ATTACKS THE ANTI-sUFFRAG1srs.

Ida d. Harper Calls Them to Task
for Their Motive of Action.
Ida D. Harper, in an article in the New
York Sun, lays the lash on women who have
organized to prevent the acknowledgements Of
their sex.
While men have been very slow and very
reluctant to perform this act of Justice" she
says. "it has remained for women themselves
to organize in order to prevent 1t. If the
comforting Of the suffrage would compel these
women to exercise it. one might understand
their action. but since they would be left
entirely free, their determination that even
those women who desire representation shall
not have it. is, to put it mildly, not the
spirit Of a true American or a true Christian.
One Of the articles OF their creed is that
universal suffrage Is mistake, and be-
hind their opposition to an increase In the
voting power is the desire to change our
form of government to an aristocracy. -
IA comparison OF the personnel of the anti
suffrage and the suffrage advocates tells It's
own story. Almost without exception the
former appear in print under the husbands
name. Their own individual names would
convey no meaning to the public. Scarcely
one is known for her own work in literature.

A Traditional Git.

The first gift the Duke Of Marlborough pre-
scented to the duchess her arrival at the
oucai home was a little Blenheim spaniel.
IL IS tradition In the house of Marlborough
THAT each duchess shall have as constant
companion one OF those faithful little dogs.
The reason for this dates back to the battle
OF blenheim. when a pet spaniel belonging to
the first Duke Of Marlborough followed it's
master on the battlefield and never left his
heels for a single moment.
After the battle Sarah. the Duchess OF
Marlborough. adopted the brave little fellow
and took it with her wherever she went thus
establishing precedent for all the duchesses
that have come after her.

feature OF the paper was declaration against
long services at the grave. In bad weather
this 10 exceedingly unpleasant. and the paper
advocates brief services for the benefit OF the
people who stand around the grave.
There was some discussion of the paper, and
the reasons for Its adoption were stated. The
hackmen and funeral directors are claimed to
be IN accord with the ministers on the gen.
eral features of the action taken although it
was not stated that the hackmen favored
trolley-car funerals. The ministers say that
Sunday is too busy a day for them to have
any additional engagements put into 1t. and
therefore 1t Is desired that ais far as possible
funerals be held on other days.

New Women Need Not Apply.


In The Young Woman, Baroness Won Bis
tram says there Is no opening for single
women in Germany except as teachers or
governesses.
1t was this fact" says the baroness,
which ten years ago made us start the
Frauenbevegung. We desired to establish
college for the higher education of women
This could not be done without the consent
Of the government. and for five years in sue
cession petition was returned from the
reichstag without even having been read.
'At last a CLEAN of hope came from the lit
tie go-ahead Duchy of Baden. There The
grand-duke's permission was obtained to lay
the foundation Of girls college in Karlsruhe,
and when that was completed we knew that
the women's cause in Germany would never
die. 1t was only the thin end OF the wedge,
but it gave US hope to go on. That college
at Karlsruhe Is the only one In existence
at present for the higher education of women.
Girls are taken at IL years, and kept until
they have completed the examination CORE,
spending to the final one in the male students
college. In one Of tho towns in the sams
duchy women are occasionally employed in
the postof1ce, working, of course, for a much
lower salary than the men; but even the fact
of their being employed at all is step for
ward. u
From the frst.'n the baroness added, 1--WE
have been beset with difficulties, and our work
has often been mose diseouraging. as we found
the very people for whose benefit we were
working slow to Cooperate with US. Women
lacked energy, and were content to 20 en-
living as they had been accustomed to live,
and seemed disinclined to make any change
in the simple unaspiring life which Is the
tradition Of every fausfrau.

russian women are coming to the front.
Witness the establishment Of the school In
st. Petersburg for the purpose of training
women for secret service In the serag1ios of
the Orient. The existence of this school Is
an admission of the political power Of the
harem Oriental gentlemen do not speak of
their wives and do not invite their friends to
dine with their families. They avow pro-
found contempt for women in general, and
Tor women's mental powers In particular.
But. Notwithstanding this fact. Oriental
women have directed the politics of many
diplomats. There is no way for male diplo-
mats to influence or win over to their side
the invisible powers. The Russian women
agents will have access to the seraglio, and

The students of the school at st. Petersburg
are being instructed not only In the Turk

but likewise in various dialects, spoken in

is also stated that Emperor William Ia alive
