Big Catfish Turned Around.

The 70-pound Mississippi river cat
fish at the New York aquarium turn
ed around last week. That's the first
time he's moved in bed for weeks. He
hasn't eaten anything for months, but
that's his way in winter. But though
he's been without food for 80 long he
has not apparently lost flesh He seems
to be Just as round and plump as he
was last summer. For some weeks
now the old chap has been just lying
down on the bottom of the tank, at the
back, with his head at that end of the
tank toward the waterfront of the
building. Last week he reused up and
ended round with his head toward
Battery park. That's where he was
when his record was taken, and that's
the way he's lying now, unless he's
shifted again, which isn't likely, for 1T
isn't quite time for him yet to wake
up and put a move on. He hasn't eat
en- a thing yet, this spring, but he'll
be around now pretty soon, and then
he'll make up for his long starving;
for he's versatile old chap, the big
cat; he can give Doctor Tanner cards
and spades and beat him at fasting,
in winter, and then bankrupt the board
in winter, and then bankrupt the
boarding house in summer.

WFamala" Bachelors Multiplying.

To read day by day of the number OF
emale bachelors that are being turned
out by the colleges is something quite
tarting
We shall see some astonishing figures
when the next census is published in full.
Already one doctor in every twenty-five
Is a woman, and one twenty eighth OF all
the preachers are women. One-eighth OF
the college professors chairs are now
filled by women, while one Journalist OFT
of everv twenty is woman. In telegra..
ply and clerking women show signs OF
set taking the whole field.
While such facts are multiplying, 1t i
notorious that the marriage rate is stead
lily falling. The whole face Of society ap-
pears to be changing, for the woman
with diploma is not looking for huS-
hand. She is a bachelor.
The problem of industrial independ!-
ence is gradually being solved through
Inc new order of society which puts wo-
man so largely at the helm of the world
affairs. This, however, is not he only
,roblem to be solved. When the world
becomes full of women doctors and law
GERS and professors, somebody must pro,
tide the material to be preached to and
cured and taught-elsc the bachelors VII
ultimately find themselves loaded witt
empty professions.
