where many Of the peaks that are as
cended look rather more difficult to
climb than prison walls.
The classical example of this sort Of
accident is the famous accident to Mr..
Whymper's party on the Matterhorn.
1t is an old and well known story, but
one may venture to repeat it in the
briefest possible outline.
1t happened on the way down at the
point where the angle of inclination al

the party were hidden from those
above them. Michel Croz, the guide,
was in front Then followed Mr.. Ha-
dow. the Rev. Charles Hunson, Lord
Francis Douglas, the old and younger
TangWalder and Mr.. Whymper him
self. The lame duck of the party was
Mr.. HadOw. He was tired out and
could hardly move. Croz was obliged
TO keep into the proper footholds. He
slipped, fell against CroZ and knocked
him, too, from his foothold Croz fell
10 or II feet through the air, and then
the shock came. Instantly Hudson and
Lord Francis Douglas were dragged
from their places, and the weight of the
four falling men came upon the other
three, who planted themselves firmly
and clung to the rocks, the jerk coming
on them as on one man. Even then
nothing could have saved them if the
rope had held. But the rope broke, and
its parted strands separated the living
and the dead. There were four dead
bodies on the glacier 1000 feet below
and three terror stricken men clinging
to the MatterhOrn crags.
Similar falls have taken place on mar
row aretes, knife edges of rock or ice
resembling the sloping reefs Of high
rows of houses. Lord Francis Hope

not easy while sitting at home to real

who find excitement in climbing lofty

ON the whole, Alpine accidents are
very real things. They mainly happen
first, when the climber falls off the
mountains; second, when the mountain
or some portion of it falls on the
climber; third, when the climber loses
his way or is weather bound.
The simple fall of course is mainly
an incident of rock climbing. 1t is

WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE ASSOCIATION

A special meeting Of the Rhode Island
Woman's Suffrage association was held
IN the vestry Of the Mathewson street
NJ. Il. church yesterday afternoon. The
platform was prettily decorated for the
occasion and a good attendance was
present
The meeting was presided over by Rev.
DIR. Dick. who conducted the devotional
exercises after which the president in
troduced the speaker of the afternoon,
Rev Ellen NJ. Gustin of Attleboro. Mrs.
Gustins subject was entitled The
Apostle Paul and Woman.
In beginning Mrs Gustin quoted that

women keep silence I'm the churches for

they are commanded 10 he under obedi-
ence as also saith the law; IL they will
learn anything let them ask their hus-
bands at home. AIRS. Gustin gave "A fun
and most interesting Interpretation of
this portion of Pauls teaching which"
she asserted lis so generally mlsunder-
stood" Continuing. Mrs. Gustin empha-
sized the fact that Paul was addressing
certain localities, at a certain time and
for a certain purpose. He did not intend
TO leave a rule for all ages. This is
evident In the fact that he gave women
directions as TO how 10 preach and how
20 phophesy. and tehefrore he would con-
tradict himself.
1T is not possible" declared the speak
er, that the Apostle Paul could so utter
ly fail to comprehend the spirit of the
Masters teaching as 10 leave woman out
OF the work OF revealing his life and
death. It Is not consistent that man
Ike him should prohibit women speaking
or taking active part IN public meetings
ana then give directions as to how she
shall dress when doing A."
At the conclusion of Mrs. Gustin's
lecture brief addresses were given by
members of the association and also by
the president and ex-president of
the Attleboro Suffrage league
