higher education and opportunities in
the industrial world: an utter de-
pendent on man; occupying a subordi-
nate position in the church; restrained
to the narrowest limits along social
lines; an absolute nonenity in politics
To-day American women are envied
by those of other nations, and stand
comparatively free individuals, with
the exception of political disabilities.
During the so years which have
wrought this revolution, Miss Anthony
is the one woman in all the world who
has given every day Of her time, every
dollar of her money, every power of
her being, to secure these results. She
was impelled to this work from no per.
sonal grievance, but solely through a
deep sense of the injustice which, on
every side, she saw perpetrated against
her sex, and which she determined TO
combat. Never for one short hour has
the cause of woman been forgotten
or put aside for any other object
Never a single tie has been formed,
either of affection or business, which
would interfere with this supreme pur.
pose. Never a speech has been given,
a trip taken, visit made, letter
written in all this half century of her
efforts that has not been done direct.
~ in the interest of this one object.
There has been no thought of personal
comfort, advancement or glory. the
self-abregation, the self-sacrifice have
been ahsolute-they have been unpar-
alleled.
Future generations will wonder
what manner of people those were
who not only permitted this woman to
labor for humanity for so years almost
unaided, but also compelled her to beg
or earn the money with which to carry
On her work. Too often these facts
are forgotten OF ignored by those who
have been most benefited by her la
bors. They see glory in the fact that
money is entirely their own now to do
with as they please, but do not know,
or will not admit, that the statutes
which guarantee this independence
were passed by the efforts of Miss An
thony and her compeers.
That they may express in some small
degree their appreciation of Miss An
thongs life of self-sacrificing labor, in
their behalf, the women have arranged
This celebration to take place upon her
eightieth birthday.

Crosses to Mark Century,

During the current year the close OF
the century will be marked by the
erection on the tops of the tallest noun
tain peaks in Italy of 10 enormous
stone crosses, one Of each of the Chris
tian centuries. The crosses are to be
erected by the international commit

crosses are to be built have already
been selected. On each cross will be
carved theflnscription: Jesus Christus,

The farmers of the United States have
long needed good work on Swine pracii,

have it in the form of No. 5 Of The Bicycle
Books called Bicycle Swine Book. 1t is pro-
fusely illustrated with photographs direct
from life OF the different breeds of hogs, etc, q,

and eastern practices, in the diseases of hogs,
especially to cholera, to feeding, breeding,
bu,chering and the carving of meats for
home use and market. There are I44 pages
printed on the best paper and bound hand
somely in cloth. Some breeders have thought
it was not possible to make good photo

Paris, May l4.-The American pavilion
at the exposition was formally turned
over to the authorities and public Sat-
urday afternoon. The Inauguration took
place in the presence of the embassy and
consular officials, number of high French
functionaries, foreign diplomats and COM
mssioners, and such a concourse of Am
erican citizens that many who were pro-
vided with tickets were unable to gain
admittance to the building. French mu-
nicipal guards and policemen formed a
Gordon around the building, keeping the
space in front of the main entrance, on
the embankment of the Sein, free for the
passage of the official party. The bal
comics were occupied exclusively by in
vited guests, while on the floor of the
building a double line of American guards
with white summer helmets formed an
aisle through which the official party
passed from the main entrance to the spot
where the presentation took place. The
ceremony of transferring the pavilion was
quite simple, consisting of an address
by Ferd w. Peck, commissioner of the
United States, handing over the pavilion
to M. Alfred Picard, assistant commits
sioner general of the exposition, and the
latter's response. No time was lost in
proceeding with the ceremony, Mr.. Peck
delivering his address and NJ. Picard re-
plying in brief but eloquent address
which evoked enthusiastic hurrahs from
the audience.
