some native judges who are aware that

ANOTHER STRIKE PROBABLE.
O'Connell Favors Strike Of Machinists
on Railroads.

WASHINGTON, May 24-President
James o'Connell. Of the International
Association Of Machlnists. announced
this afternoon that he would recon-
mend to the next annual convention of
machlnists at Toronto beginning June
3, that date be set for nine-hour
day. without a reduction in wages, on
all railroads in the country. On rail-
roads which fail to comply with this
demand. a strike will be ordered. This
recommendation will be made in
o'ConneMs annual report.
O'Connell says that such a strike
would involve probably one hundred
thousand men. including 10000 machin-
lists. The policy will be to enforce the
demand by tying up practically the en-
tire mechanical service Of the roads.
1t was simply a matter of policy, he
said, that railroads were not included
in the present strike. o'Connell said
the outlook Of the present strike was
very gratifying.

New York, July 1.-The Rev.
DR.. Minet J. Sa, ,ge made ''Vaca-
ton Religion" the theme of his
sermon at the Church of the Mes
siah. He said:
81 have not a word TO say
against Sunday amusements.
There is no reason whatever in the
bible or in ecclesiastical history or
anywhere else for the existence OF
the Puritanlcal or ordinary Ameri-
can Sunday. 1t is absurd and
childish to think there is anybody
in heaven who is going to be angry
with you for doing on Sunday
anything that it is right to do on
any other day in the, week.
''Set apart Sunday morning for
communion with God. Then use
the res, of the day for recreation,
walking, sailing. driving. playing
golf, baseball or anything that will
make you better physically. Do
not dissipatc however, for that is
not recreation"

A conspicuous fashion paper, says
the London Chronicle, seems to have
tried to give a feminine turn to the
name of two of our chesses-Consu-
elo, duchess of Manchester, and Consul
elo, duchess of Marlborough-by print
ing the name Consuela. This shows a
misunderstanding of the most charac-
teristic of Spanish names. Consuelo is
comfort" or consolation" a mascu-
line substantive, but feminine name.
Nearly all Spanish women are chris
tened Mary with some special invoca-
tion; thus Mary of the Seven Sorrows
is Dolores; Mary of Mount Carmel (the
religious order of the national saint,
Theresa) is our wild friend Carmen
and our agile Carmencita; Mary OF the
Immaculate Conception is Conception,
and Mary of Good Comfort is Consuelo.

Sixty years ago no woman in Ameri-
ca, so far as is known, had ever been
regularly accredited as an authoized
practitioner in law, medicine or theol-
ogy. Indeed, it seemed then far more
unlikely that women would be allowed
to preach tnan to vote. When Antoin
cite L. Brown impaired to her class
mate. Lucy Stone, at Oberlin, her in
tention to become an ordained minis
ter. Lucy, who already aspired to be-
come voter, exclaimed: you can
never do it!' Yet Antoinette was or
dained, and ministered to an orthodox
congregation some so years ago, while
Lucy, after a half-century of heroic
effort, died a disfranchised citizen.
OF the three learned professions,
medicine has proved the most gener-
ally available for women. There are
now many thousand physicians of ev-
cry school practising medicine success
fully in America and England, and
even to some extent in foreign coun-
tries. Indeed, a medical diploma has
proved invaluable to many women mis-
sionaries, giving them admission to the
harems of Turkey, India and China.
which would otherwise have been
closed to them.
While there are thousands of sue
cessful physicians, there are few hun
dred successful clergywomen, who have
ministered acceptably to congregations
and done credit to their pastorates
But in law comparatively few women
by the practice of the profession. In
exceptional cases they have done SO.
