Address Of Professor Chrisman Is Ne

Address of Professor CnrismaH -
scented by 5000 Women.
At the second days session of the Ma
tional Congress OF Mothers IN LES
Moines great indignation was raised ny
the address of Oscar Chrisman, A. NJ,
Ph. D.. professor of pathology or cnliu
study in the State normal school at En-
poria. Kan. MEN never love as
women do he said. Instantly the DIG
convention hall was filed with Misses
and it was several minutes before the
speaker could proceed. He continued 10
say that women were made for love ana
men for reason. This was greeted by
an indignant protest from 1900 threats.
The professor dropped this branch OF the
subject and went on with his ADDRESS.
At it's conclusion a dozen women leaped
to their feet and demanded recognition.
Mrs. Birney, who was presiding, gave
the floor to Mrs Winfield S. Hall OF Ber-
wyn, ILL.,, who cried in voice that reach
ed the street, MEN do love!' Mrs. Hall
then gave Prof Chrisman tongue-lash-
ing for fifteen minutes. When she ceas-
ed man and fifteen women jumped up.
The man, T. III. Smith Of Harlan, Iowa,
was recognized. at is false" he said.
Men 90 love. IL Is d SIduuci tho1 eAi~
professor has given you. He ought to
be ashamed of himself for standing be-
fore this audience and saying such
things. Men do love their sweethearts
and wives. AS boys they love their moth
ers AS men they love their families.
Prof. Chrisman has queer ideas for an
educator of the young. He has no bust
ness telling this congress of mothers that
men do not love. They know better, and
am glad of this magnificent rebuke the
speaker has suffered justly at your
hands," The man closed, and the women
cheered.
The meetings of the congress were well
attended and full of interest. More than
1000 delegates were in attendance from

ton to Suit Present Conditions.
Bradstreet's says: Trade. is, if any
thing, quieter and prices are lower than
a week ago, while efforts toward read
justment of productive capacity to pres
ent conditions are noted i'll several lines
of industry, notably iron and steel and
lumber. Crop reports are, as whole,
good except for wheat. Hog products
are lower, and the same is true of cheese,
petroleum. hides and leather, copper and
a number of iron and steel products.
Perhaps the most favorable report for
the week as to distributive trade comes
from the grocery business, in which the
sharp advance in refined sugar has slim
ulated demand in other lines, notably
coffee. Wheat, including -four, shipments
for the week aggregate 3,69S,9 6S bushels,
against 5,17S, 400 bushels last week.
Corn exports for the week aggregate

Unusual Suggestion.

society, the court suggested: Let Mrs.
Hoenschemeyer take her husband to
board with her and charge him enough
to keep the family" The proposition to
change the status of husband to that OF

Grafton by Hoenschemeyer. The father
