WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE.
Mrs. Annie L. Dlggs Gives Prof. Deschamps
OF Belgium Some Information on
the Question.

Topeka, Kan, Aug. 19.-In answer
to the questions of Prof. Fernand
Deschamps, of Belgium, in reference
to the workings of woman's suffrage
in Kansas, Annie l.. Diggs Saturday
mailed to him the following:
81 have never known anything detri-
mental to domestic life to result from
woman's use of the ballot. On the
contrary, l have known instances of
homes becoming more harmonious
and more satisfactory when the wives
became intelligent and sympathetic
companions to their husbands, sharing
their interest in public questions.
"The education of the children does
not suffer from the political activity
of the mother. On the contrary, one
of the chief interests of women vot-
ers relates to improvements in educa-
tional affairs.
"As rule the political views of
husband and wife are identical.
"The chief interest of women in
politics centers upon those questions
which bear directly upon the welfare
and the education of children, upon
the environment of their homes, up
on sanitation, public health and gen
eral civic welfare. Whenever any
matter along these lines is uppermost
in the election the woman vote ranges
anywhere from two-thirds to an equal
number with the man VOTE

Washington, Aug. 19.-The United
States civil service commission has
sent its seventeenth annual report to
the president. The report gives a
summary of the work done during the
report year. Conspicuous space is
given to a discussion of the operation
and effect of the presidential rules
now in force and to their administra-
ton, Investigations made of irregu'
larities and violations and to the diff
culties experienced and the suggested
changes which experience shows to be
necessary. An interesting feature OF
the report is brief history of the
benefits derived by the operation OF
the civil service law since its enact
ment, and the commissions attitude
and policy is set forth to the greatest
practicable publicity concerning all
matters connected with its work.

A SEX THEORY.


Berlin, Aug. 19.-Prof. Schenck's
lecture on his sex theory-although
his system finds little support among
chronological experts-was the prin-
cipal feature of the geological con-
gress just held. He explained how,
beginning with silk worms-which ne
first noticed produced a preponder-
ance of male moths when i'll fed-he
had patiently experimental with diff
ferent kinds of animals and the re-
suits convinced him that sex is main
ly determined by diet. Gerhardt
Rohlf, famous African traveller
whom he interested in his investiga-
tions, had noticed that savage tribes
in times of great privation and
scarcity invariably showed an abnor-
NAL increase in male births. Then,
the professor said, he experimental
successfully in his own family and
in the families of friends until he had

Won BY Garin- Miller, the Chica-
goan, Fifth. Ell


Paris, Aug. 19.-The international
bicycle race from Paris to Brest and
return, distance of $50 miles, was
won by Garin, who reached the finish
ing point in the Paris velodrome at
1904 a. m. yesterday, having covered
the entire course in SO hours and II
minutes. River arrived second at
0:50:46, much fresher than Garin.
In accordance with his custom he had
followed time table he had prepared
beforehand and he arrived only IA
seconds ahead of this scheme. Fred
erick and Aucouturier arrived to-
gether at 1l40.' The former by a
squirt gained the lead in the final lap
at the velodrome, but he lost it
through installing the ringing of a
bell for the ending of the race.
Aucouturier kept on and got third
place, Frederick being ten meters be-
hind him and securing fourth. Miller,
the Chicagoan, was fifth, arriving at
1875 p. m. He was riding Tom Lin
tons machine and made the best time
for the lost kilometer one minute and
26 seconds. He covered the whole dis
lance in SO hours and 81 minutes.
A protest has been lodged against
Garin, signed by the deputy mayor
and ten inhabitants of st. Maurice
les-Chareney, who allege that they
saw him being paced by motor car.
Miller has also lodged protest con-
corning Frederick.

Helena, Mont, Aug. 15.-The state
of Montana will shortly have a land
sale that will eclipse the recent gov
eminent affair in Oklahoma, where
about 100000 acres were disposed Of
to homeseekers. About 100000
acres, distributed throughout every
county in the state, will be auctioned
off by Land Registrar Long. This
course was decided on at a meeting
of the state board Of commissioners
A state law prohibits the sale of any
lands at less than $40 per acre, and
where Registrar Long fails to receive
the requisite bids he will only lease
the lands to the highest bidder. The
board decided that purchases by any
one person shall be limited to 16C

WOMEN IN BUSINESS.

Woman has won a place In the bus
mess world. There is scarcely "a line
of endeavor with which she has not
identified herself, TO a greater or less
extent. She is a lawyer, a farmer,
merchant, a doctor, a banker, a rail-
road man." an accountant. a clerk,
etc. This is more largely true of the
North and West than of the South
nevertheless Southern women in in
creasing numbers are coming to share
in, rather than increase. the burdens
of the household. What has been the
effect upon woman's nature of this
transition from a household deity to
bread-winner? Has it hardened her.
or merely broadened her mental view
of life? A writer for the Philadelphia
Times. Jeanette Beach, denies that
the effect has been a hardening one,
except in individual cases. She holds
that it has generally been broadening,
making women who have worked for
living the better and more appTecia-
tive of the efforts of men.
Working for a living, or in order to
be independent, makes women more
self-reliant. They lose that clinging to
and leaning upon the man which is so
much admired in the home woman, and
which so fiatters the mans vanity that
he is willing to carry the heaviest load
that may be placed upon his shoulders.
This independence and self-reIiance is
often taken by those who do not fully
understand it as being an evidence OF
hardness and even mannishness on the
part of the woman. But in almost ev-
cry instance the heart of the woman
will be found in the right place" and
as warm and true as that of any of
her sisters. The business woman has
not time to indulge in any of the friv-
olities and coQuetries of the society
woman, hence she loses all interest in
and taste for them and indulges in
none when business hours are over
Nevertheless when she gets married
her husband is apt to find her larger
hearted. more helpful and not less af-
fectionate.
However, as Miss Cor Mrs.) Beach
says. it depends upon the woman her
self. whether contact with the business
world contracts and hardens her mind
or broadens il. No general statement
that will At all cases can be made.
Similar conditions will affect varying
natures differently. One home girl"
coming into contact with business may
be spoiled for home life, while another
may develop an unselfshness. self
control and thoughtfulness Of others
that would never have come to her
under former conditions. The personal
equation must be taken into consider
alton every time. Nevertheless it is not
just to say that. considered in itself,the
business world mars women.

NEW NAMES ron THE PHILIPPINES

The New York Tribune says ii has
information from high authority 10 the
effect that bill will be introduced into
Congress soon after that body meets
to give the name of Mckinley TO the
Philippine Islands, and TO name each
one of the islands after a distinguished
soldier or sailor of this country. The
Philippines would become the AcKin-
leys. Luzon would probably be called
Dewey and so on through the list.
There is no doubt very general dis
position to honor the name Of the late
President in every proper way. and it
is probable that there would be no
great opposition TO comforting any rea-
sonabIe distinction upon the men who
won fame in the Scandinavian
war but the more Congress discussed
the subject, il the proposed bill should
be introduced, the less likely would IL
be that IL would change the names Of
the Philippine Islands. These islands
have been known by the names they
now bear for hundreds of years, and
any change in the name of the entire
group, or OF any one OF the group,
would tend to cause annoyance and
confusion.
We have possession of the islands, it
is true, but 1t seems to US that the peo-
pie who fnhabit them have some rights
in regard to them. The names the
islands now have may be much more
satisfactory to them than hose which
it is proposed TO give them. OF course
other nations could offer no serious OBJ
lection to the proposed change, and
yet it does seem as if 1t would be
hardly right to change the name of so
large part of the world, and the
names of the divisions of that party.
names that have been written in histo
ries for centuries. without consulting
them. We would be surprised If the
proposition should be generally favored.
