CURRENT COMMENT.

The Philadelphia Record Dem.) says:
The members of the Industrial Commits
sion, whose 5000 a year jobs will end
on Dec. next. are not likely to be put
to the trouble and expense of working
overtime. They have ceasd investiga-
ton, and will now set an army of type
writer's at work on their forthcoming re-
port-a portentous document carrying a
record of over 200 separate and distinct
inquiries into almost every conceive BILE
question Affecting the relations of capital
and labor So shrewdly have the wit
nesses before the commission been select
ed that II will doubtless be quite pos
sible to prove from it's report almost any
proposition on every side of the broad eco
nomic controversy which induced the APP
pointment Of these industrious all around
investigators"
The Nashville American (Dem.) says:
I'VE venture the opinion that a major
ity of the cubans have no knowledge Of
the Plat amendment, and that a great
er number have not yet heard that 1t
has been accepted. We have not the
slightest doubt that a large ma jority Of
the property owners in the island, Gu
bans, Spaniards and others, will feel much
safer and better satisfied under a gov
eminent with the Plat restrictions at
tached, then they would under a gov
eminent without such restrictions; and
we know that many of them would pre-
fer to see the island under absolute
American control rather than in the
hands Of native government. And the
reasons they give for this are unsnswer-
able"
The Louisville courier-Journal Dem.)
says: III the Boxer insurrection turns
out to be the means of opening up China
to civilization and progress, that chap
ter of bloodshed and horror may prove
an inestimabie blessing. The Japanese
we're forced into permitting the admis-
sion OF foreigners, and that proved the
breaking up OF the old Japan and the
birth Of the new ana progressive nation
which Is now the marvel OF the world
Il may be that this was the method
chosen to dispel the darkness that has
hung over so large a part of the world
for thousands OF years. History Is fun

almost sure to be found there. Oscar
Wilde, on his initial visit. was one Of
the numerous British celebrities who
owed much of his success here to one
of Jennie June's Sunday nights. II
was a few rapid-fire comments from
the hostess on one of these occasions
that suggested to the late o. b.
Bunce his famous little volume of
"Touts."
Jennie June was great friend of
Mary Anderson's, both before and af-
ter the marriage of the faVorite Amer
lean actress. When in England she
always visiter. Mrs. Navarro at Tun-
bridge Wells. One of "our Marys"
great treats to all her American guests
was to take them for q punt ride on
the Thames. Like many other accom-
plishments distinctively English, punt
ing is not so easy as 1t looks. A novice
who allows her pole TO get caught In
the mud is likely to see the punt glide
from under her feet and find herself
clnging to the pole In midstream. On
one occasion, near Taplon, when Mary
was punting Jennie June and her
daughter Vida--now Mrs. Fred Sidney
the pole became unmanageable. The
American actress was in despair.
How shall we ever get ashore?" she
exclaimed.
"Ill show you. my DEAR" said Jen-
ME June.
Suting the action TO the word she
seized the pole and punted to land. To
her astonished hostess she said.
Didn't you know | was born in Eng
land? Yes, dear, at Marlborough: and
as a girl in short frocks l punted a
boat long before you were born"
Here is Jennie June's farewell mes
sage to women who work. one of the
last things she ever wrote: Work
is the salvation of women. 1t Is the
ministry of God in the world. Women
arc as yet only serving their apprent-
iceship to the printers craft. There II
no limit to their ambition or oppor-
tunity. When / see a really scandal
Gus thing in society gossip / always
hope, and usually believe. that IL was
not written by a woman; for / be-
lieve in the conscience as well as the
aptitude of women. The one thing to
hope for is that with the new educa-
lion the new woman will cling TO the
best part of the old-the tender won-
anhood, wifehood and motherhood that
the world cannot get along without"

New York. Dec. 24.-Every enamel
pated woman, or new woman, or what
ever else she may elect to call herself
In this progressive age, should drop a
spray Of Christmas laurel on the bier
OF Jennie June. She was the woman
who literally "blazed the way" for all
that her followers have been able to
accomplish through a forest of sex
prejudice. She broke down appar-
emily insurmountaible barriers of con-
vention and custom. She was the pi-
oneer of woman In the geld OF active
work on a daily newspaper, and in
founding the famous Sorosis Club.
which now has scores OF imitators.
She inculcated the idea that women
required and could maintain a. social
organization in which they could pur-
sue their own methods OF thought and
action in their own way.
Until her death sne was called "the
mother of clubs" to-day all the pow

meetings at the houses OF the members.
One afternoon she mounted a chair
and sang her first original contribution
TO the world OF literature and music,
the chorus Of which ran:
Shout aloud the inspiring lay.
