Women's Idea of Heaven.

In Chicago. that city of women's clubs, where the woman movement has at- tained more than ordinary prominence. attention is being called to the uttefances of the Rev. MT. Leach regarding the fu- ture world, which he declares will be composed almost exclusively of women. He bases his opinions upon the fact that women lead purer lives than men, and from this he draws a heaven where the latter will be conspicuous by their ab- sence. He says that he expects to be very lonely in heaven for this reason, and In assuring his flock of this belief he unhesi- tatingly consigns the fathers, brothers and husbands to the lower world.
 Now, there is not woman who will an- ticipate such a prospect as Mir. Leach pictures. She may willingly admit that women are better than men, for the best of men admit this, and she may not deny that much of the church work would go undone without her active interest. Women as a rule do not object to being accredited with all the virtues, and whether they receive a sufficient reward in the world to come does not effect their work on earth. They are censured quite as often as they are held up as paragons. And yet where women complain that they are unappreciated, and that if things 20 wrong the blame Is always attached 10 them and the men escape, it Is doubtful If these women will find any consolation in the thought that the men who have put these burdens upon them will be con- signed to everlasting darkness
 The womans point of view, discussed editorially in the Washington Post gives probably the clearest idea of her attitude to the twentieth century opinions ad- vanced by MT. Leach:
 'The woman's idea of heaven is not a place from which men are excluded. It would not be more irreverent than the f1ippant talk of good Brother Leach if we were to say that no good woman could be happy in this life or die rejoicing if she believed with him that most of her male relations and friends were bound to eternal woe. Confronted with the choice of an eternal home with her father, husband, brothers and other dear ones of the masculine order, or eternal residence separated from them and sur rounded chiefly by women, many a good and true woman would accept the former. Rev. Leach and all other preachers know that women are always their relia- apt to overlook the fact that the fathers. husbands and brothers at work out in the world are beset by many temptations

Lord RusseII's Diem ma.

Once, when he first came to Lon
don and was laying the foundation Of
his great career says a London letter,
the future Lord Chief Justice Russell
went to the pit Of theater. The piece
was popular, the pit was crowded and
the young advocate had only standing
room. All of a sudden a man at his
side cried out that his watch was
stolen. Mr.. Russell and two other
men were hemmed in.
at Is one of you three" cried the
man minus the watch.
"Well, we had better 60 out and he
searched" said Mr.. Russell, with the
alertness of mind that did not fail him
at a trying moment amid an excited
crowd A detective was at hand, and
the suggestion was accepted. AS Mr..
Russell walked out the idea flashed
through his mind that if the man be-
hind him had the stolen property he
would probably try to secrete it in the
pocket of his front rank man. Quick
as thought he drew his coattails about
him-only to feel, to his horror, some
thing large and smooth and round al
ready in his pocket.
While he was still wondering what
this might mean for him, the detective
energetically seized the hindmost man,
exclaiming: what, you rascal. At it
again. TO Mr.. Russell and the other
man he apologiZed and babe them 60
free.
But Mr.. Russell, before he had taken
many steps, reflected that he could not
keep the watch. He went back to the
box office and explained, with cour,
age on which lie afterward said he
rarely experienced greater demands.
that though he did not take the watch
he had it. So saying. he put his hand
into his pocket and pulled out-a for
gotten snuffbox.
