TO SURRENDER THE GAVEL.

On account of the inflrmities incl

Miss Susan B. Anthony, whose name
has long been identified with the lead
ership of the equal suffrage movement
In the United States, will formally sur
render the gavel Of the National Wom-
ans Suffrage Association at the ap-
preaching session OF that body IN jan
uary next. Her successor Will likely
be Mrs. Carrie Chapman-Catt OF new
York. Mrs. Chapman-Catt is now IN
the vigorous prime OF life. Her zeal
Gus championship Of the equal suffrage
movement in this country has brought
her into widespread national proml-
nence: and there are few localities IN
the United States in which she has no'
spoken on behalf of the equal suffrage
cause. When the national convention
met in Atlanta in 1895 she was the
most conspicuous figure of that Douy
next to Miss Anthony, and she maze
several effective speeches during the
progress of the proceedings. Mrs
Chapman-Catt has enjoyed the benen'
of most liberal college advantages; and
in this respect she differs from Miss
Anthony, whose educational opportuni-
ties were restricted to those OF the
modest village schools which she at
tended in early girlhood. Miss An
thony is indebted to her qualities oil
born leadership rather than to her ed
ucational equipment for her success in
directing the interests of the equal sur
rage cause. Mrs. Chapman-Catt Is en-
lowed with exceptionally brilliant

shows degree of indifference that is
misunderstanding. Happiness anduse-
fulness depend on physical health; so
does good disposition. Disease makes
women nervous, irritable and snap

to be good-natured makes them ner-

THE SWEDISH FESTIVAL.

The Swedes who have gathered here
from the eastern states for their music
festival deserve a hearty welcome and
the best wishes for success in their en-
terprse To whatever section of the
county they come they bring intelli-
gence and industry and everywhere
| they are recognized as an element of
strength in the community. Belonging
to the great Teutonic race. they have
common kinship with Saxons and
| Germans, and there is a certain rug
gedness of character perva9ing all
Pre-eminence in music and art is gen.
orally conceded to the Germans, but
| the Scandinavians are animated by a
| love Of the same elevating pursuits,
Their music has a peculiar in
| dividuality and charm, and the
world has bestowed upon it
the recognition which is deserved only
by conspicuous merit. They are a mu-
steal people, and a community of Scan
dinavians without its singing society
would be an anomaly.
If there are poetry and human feel
ing in their. songs, there is fascination
in the fresh north country voices. Ap-
preclative commentators say the north
ern landscape of forest and ford has
strongly influenced the character of
Scandinavian music, and it is equally
certain that high latitude has given
temper to the voices Of the people.
The change of seasons. the conditions
of home life, the nature of employ
ments and the political environment,
all have to do with the quality and
temperament of the people of a coun-
try. It is customary to speak of a
class of Scandinavian songs as reflect
ing melancholy habits of thought; and
yet a certain joyousness is one of the
characteristics of the northmen's music
and enthusiasm one of the most
marked traits Of their singing. That
is a tribute to the spontaneity Of the
music and the genuine feeling of the
people 1t is a reflection of the hap
piness of their home life and their
companionable spirit.

Those who fancy that the present i'm
munity from small poX epidemics is to
be attributed to any cause save rigid
health regulations should be reminded
that the disease is still with US. 1t
has not been stamped out, but only held
in check. The United States marine
hospital service shows that 741S cases
have been reported in the past five
months, and that $50 of these were ia
tai. How many cases were not report
ed to the federal authorities is merely
conjecture, but it is a matter of COM
mon observation that there have been
no great epidemics, such as used to ter
however, more than a thousand cases
in the single state of Ohio, and nearly
400 since the beginning of the year. The
contagion has recently appeared spo-
radically in Boston and Fall River, in
Maine and at various other points in
New England. With the absolutely
free intercourse allowed between people
of all sections of the country, it is not
often possible to trace the infection to
its origin nor yet to isolate
the first cases in every instance
Hence the anxiety of the state
board of health lest the coming win
ter should witness a violent outbreak
of the disease, for in cold weather small
pox is the more active. A general vac
cination of adults is urged as one of
the most obvious of precautions, but
| there is no law to compel such a meas
ure. The vaccination of infants be-
fore they are two years old is obliga-
tory, except in case of exemption by
order of a physician. but adults are left
to their own discretion in this matter.
All that the state board of health can
do is to arouse the local boards and the
public as far as may be. The appear
ance of the disease at so many differ
ent points in so short period is evil
dence of danger and of the necessity
of watchfulness and prevention.

THE USEFUL SAINT

"a tribute to the late A. A. Mclaughlin,
founder of the Welcome Mission.(
He fell in battle for the cause
OF friendless men, their need ana veal
The wayworn soldier could not pause,
But leading still the van
His latest breath cheered on the zeal
For God and fellow-man.
Unknown to fame" the verdict runs,
His usefulness" his highest claim,
God needed stars IS well as suns
Night shadows hide the day
Man CROPPED without the rush-light's flame
To light his early way.
Dispelling shadows. bringing cheer
His lifelong task his joy and pride.
1.-THE least of these my children here,
Though wanderers from the fold
Found him a hopeful, willing guide,
A friend, a champion bold
The light he saw was law to him,
What recks its candle-power or size?
The beacon God gave him to trim
Like sunshine through a rift
Shone kindly, reckoning TO the skies
The voyager cast adrift.
What need for churchly zeal to pledge
The heavenly rest His saints are
Or seek with harps and crowns TO hedge
Regilding golden day
The path OF such a soul to heaven
Who bravely led the way.
Why limit all the ceaseless years
OF God. 10 needless praise and rest
For those who dried the mOurners' tears
A crown 10 idly wear
Who wrought with him-O, sorry best
For those who love and share.
What gracious hope his life has lent
To humblest of Gods servants here,
Glad in mans service 10 be spent
Till summoned from above
They wait the "Wel done" without fear
or claim, save that Of love.
Give saints a chance, give God the right
To keep such usefulness from rest,
While realms Of darkness strive with
light
We may need helpers then
Like him. Gods useful saint-the test,
He loved his feilOw-men."

The quiet of France during the re-
cent Dreyfus developments is in strange
contrast with the turbulence that
marked the earlier revelations. This
peaceful acceptance of results is consid-
cred by some as proof of a revulsion OF
sentiment among the people and con-
viction that wrong has been done and
must be righted. Yet it is not an IN
known habit of the French to work off
their steaming excitement before the
crisis is reached, and then subside into
seeming indifference to the outcome
Nevertheless, the present equanimity
| is encouraging for the stability OF the
republic, If for no other reason than
that it is a distinct disappointment TO
its enemies. The simultaneous advent
of Mai. Marchland added something to
| the peril of the situation.

LOTHROP's OPERA HOUSE
The King People Make Their Last Change
of Bill.

The King Dramatic Company put On
the final play in their three weeks Sc
ries at Lothrops yesterday. The new
piece is a Cuban war drama, called
THE Last Stroke" Like all similar
pieces, every Spaniard is a blackguard,
whose villainy is only exceeded by his
coWardice, and every American is
Bayard of chivalry and virtue; but if
one pardOns the monotony and injus-
tice of this characterize ton, the play
should impart considerable entertain
ment for it is brisk and snappy, with
more original plot than is usually
found in pieces of its class.
Orlin Kyle was given the part Of
Spanish spy to struggle with, and acted
the role better than he looked it. Mr..
Brown and Miss Irving gave conven-
tiOnal representations of the hero and
heroine, Miss Irving making an attrac-
tive picture in a nuns garb. Harry
Castle was a spread-eagle American
consul.
Preparations are going actively for

Secretary Gage comes valiantly to
the defense of the presidents recent
order, exempting 1000 places from the
classified government service, and yet
the secretary has some reputation as
a practical business man and an ad-
vocate of the principle. of. the merit
system. His remarks relate specifically
to the large number of deputy collect
ors of internal revenue, who are ap-
pointed by the collectors and are re-
sponsibIe to them and not to the treas
ury department. AS the collectors are
responsible for their deputies, the ar
gument is that they should have the
privilege of naming as their assistants
men whom they know will be accept
able and serviceable to them. The
same argument is recognized as valid
in the case of other employees that
have never been included within the
classified service.

twice dangerously wounded and left on

After the death of his first wife, Mr..

thirty years. His stepson who lived

might seem to be a normal condition
of our foreign trade. With domestic
mines turning out s5,OOO,O 900 a month,
exports might have begun before now
but for the unusual demand for money
within the country. owing to the &C
