ington woman who has had long
and varied social experiences
in England and America. "but
it seems to me that the women
[ meet to-day are very much
like the women l knew so years
ago.
There may be more vino are
highly educated, or seIf-sup-

whether she earned il or her

"The brilliant woman and the

behind the scenes to recognize
the modern woman's peculiari
ties. Entomology and a salary

but | do notice in society
one sign that women are chang
ed. When was L girl the half
hour or whole hour after dinner
was the abomination of desola-
ton. The men stayed with
their wines and cigars. The
women adjourned to the draw
ing-rooms and manifestly did
penance for their sins.
Nov things are altogether
different in this day and gener-
alton. To be sure, the men
often leave the table with the
women, but even when they
don't there is no dull hour for
the women. Women are more
interested in each other than
they used to be, or else they are
more interested in themselves.
when a number of women
are together nowadays they
seem to have a most hilarious
time, and conversation never
flags for a moment. l suppose
it is because there are more in
terests in the lives of women
than there were in the old days.
One doesn't need to talk jam,
or servants, or children, or
clothes-though those staple
topics are still hard worked, 1
notice.
I've often seen a look of ac-
tual regret on the women's faces
when the doors opened and the
men came in. 1t is a wholesome
sign. A woman's woman is a
much finer product of ciYiliza-
ton than a mans woman. The
men are so easily deceived, poor
things. IN. Y. Sun.

GUARDIANS DUTY.


The question of guardians duty TO
promptly invest the interest receipts Of
his wards estate was raised yesterday
I'm the report Of Henry Smith. as mas
ter on the account Of Jonathan shaw
as guardian OF the estate OF Evelyn n.
Bidwell. a minor The master says
mo annual accounts having been
filed for the period from September o.
1898. to June 80. 1893 the question arises,
Is the guardian chargeable with inter-
est for credit balances from yer to
year? a careful analysis of the ac-
count shows that In round numbers,
the guardian has had uninNested cash
balances in his hands OF about 500 for
five years, $50 for four years, $3.50 for
three years, $3.50 for two years and $3.50
for one year At 6 per cent per annum
interest would have been about $1S9 on
all those balances, or so per cent more
If the rate was per cent. The guard
ian has charged only $3.50 for commits
sions, though he would have been en-
titled to charge S171.47 on income and
$116.40 on principal received Possibly
the difference is now waived so as to
make it appear about an even thing,
which, under the circumstances, would
appear to be as fair as could possibly
be, unless It is held that the guardian
should have lost no time in looking
around for safe securities in which to
make investments. In all probability.
too, the guardian may have entertained
an idea that he was not called upon to
invest his income receipts, his princi-
pal receipts being only so recently re-
CeiVed."

LAST DAY OF THE HOUSE.
But Walker, of Massachusetts Insists
on Making a Speech.

Washington, March Sat II o'clock
today the house entered upon the last
legislative day of the session. The
members were in their places and the
public galleries were crowded in anticf-
patton of spectacular scenes. The desk
of the late Representative Crawford of
Texas, who died at midnight last night
was shrouded in black and covered with
flowers.
Immediately after the reading of the
journal Mr.. Burke Oem., Tex), an
nounced the death of his colleague in
feeling words and the usual resolutions
were adopted.
The following committee was appoint
ed to attend the funeral: Messrs. Burke,
Henry CTexas); De Graffenreid, Lam
ham, McRae (Ark.); Smith (Ky.) Brewer
(Ala): Moon CTenn.); McCleary (0dinn.),
and Mahany On ".
Mr.. Walker CRep., Mass), who has
been seeking the privilege of addressing
the house for several days then secured
unanimous consent to speak for an
hour, such time however, not to enter
fere with conference reports. The fol-
lowing conferees upon the bill to pro-
vide a code of criminal procedure for
Alaska were appointed: Messrs. War
ner CRep., IIl); Gibson Rep., TENN;
and Maddox Dem., Ga-), and the bill
was sent to conference. The bill to per-
init the reimportation of wild animals
for exhibition purposes was adopted.

NEW HEADQUARTERS
For the Fire Department on Fifth
Street is Discussed.

Chief Strauss agrees with City Attor-
ney Birds idea to erect a building for
the fire department headquarters in the
rear of the city Jail building but doubts
if there is enough room for such q build
ing.
Another thing I should like to see
would be some improvements about the
jail" sadi Strauss THE building
should be entirely rebuilt but If not re-
built it could be greatly improved by
remodeling. The quarters are cramped
and the building is badly in need of
extensive repairs. The floors and
plumbing are past mending and should
be new
From the rear of the city Jail to the
alley is about as feet which would be
enough for the fire department. There
is a half lot at the north of the jail
that could be utilized as a yard for the
prisoners breaking stone.
The fire department must soon be
equipped with a new ladder truck long
er and heavier than the one now in use
The one in use has been rebuilt and re-
paired for the last 80 years and an ex-
tension ladder truck with a ladder that
could be run to the top of a four or five
story building is needed. Such truck
could not be Quartered where the de-
partment is now located as it would be
