Schenk and His Mistake,

With the death of Professor Leopold
Schenk world which was at one time
profoundly interested In his claim Of
discovery of the sex-control; that is,
the determination Of the sex of child
rem before birth, will, in the continued
lack of convincing proof, proceed to
forget the Schenk theory.
The vital solicitude OF the race as to
the solution OF the problem to which
Doctor Schenk devoted his great learn
ing and brilliant talents was emf
nently natural. 1t means great deal
TO the world If science can so direct
natures operation as to dictate with
reasonable certainty the sex of an un-
born child. To throned monarch
the birth of son to succeed him is
desired above all things. In wealthy
families the line OF male descent Is
vastly important. Even to the aver

Woman Suffrage in England.

The Boer war being ended, the wo-
man suffrage movement has reappeared
in England.
The history Of this movement in that
country has been unexciting, but sub
stantial results have been obtained.
In 1867 the first petition for woman
suffrage was presented to Parliament.
1t WAS signed by 1899 women.
In 1878 petition was filed signed
by 1000 women; snd that presented
to the last Parliament had $4,000
signers.
Euglishwomen now have municipal
suffrage, and the present agitation is
designed to confer upon them parlia-
mentary suffrage, which would make
them the political equals of men in all
respects.
Curiously enough, one of the objec-
tions urged there, as in the United
States, is that women do not want
suffrage. At least, it is said, they dc
not exercise the privilege in municipal
elections and would be unlikely tc
value the wider right any more.
But this is sweepingly denied. One
investigator, who made an extended
inquiry, reports that in large num-
ber of cities and towns the proportion
OF women voters is as large as that o.
the men. The Lord Mayor OF Dublin
declares that in Ireland the best re-
suits have followed the grant OF the
municipal franchise, and he reports
that women exercise the privilege
"without any loss of dignity OF
domesticity."
Such evidence is interesting, because
it is fact, not theory. Experience vii
settle the woman question as it settles
all others which are settled right

Will Not Appeal In Vain.

1t is reported that Generals Botha,
DeWet and Delarey of South Africa
will soon visit the United States and
appeal to the American people to help
the Boer widows, orphans, and burgh-
ers who were crippled or ruined by
the war. These brave men will un-
doubtedly receive cordial welcome
in the United States and undoubtedly,
also. they will obtain material assist
ance. 1t lie significant, however, that
the British colonists SO often find it
necessary to turn to America for relief
lief. While Great Britain was pur-
suing its unholy war in South Africa,
British subjects in India were starving
and the people of the United States
were required to save them from the
ravages of famine; and now although
the people of the Transvaal and of
Orange Free State have become,
through the fortunes of war, subjects OF
Great Britain, now that Great Britain,
has asserted complete sovereignty over
their land, now that they need aid and
assistance to re-establish themselves
even in peaceful pursuits, they are
required to appeal to the people of the
United States for relief. They will not
appeal in vain, even though a great
many people will believe that England
should repair the damage which British
greed has accomplished in South
Africa. The COnan,oaer.

A Bride With a Human Heart.

1t is pretty story that comes to us
on the best of authority from one of
the larger cities in Vermont. The
daughter of the principal owner and
manager of one of the largest manu-
factories in the State was to be mar
ried to a young man who, from poor
boy had grown up in the establish
ment to position Of the highest trust.
Her father asked her what she would
like for wedding present. She
answered that nothing would please
her 30 much as to have the strike in
her fathers factory settled and the
men returned to their work. 1t was
not an easy thing to do, for scales OF
wages are a matter OF conference with
other factories, but he told her it
should be done. He yielded the point
In dispute, and agreed to pay the same
wages for one hours less work day.
And that young wife, with her work.
man husband, in sympathy with en-
ployer and laborer, is happier over
the return Of the men to their work,
and the restoration Of conditions OF
comfort to their families, than If her
millionaire father had given her hall
his stock. The story now first gets
into type, but the workmen know 1t,
and they are grateful to the bride with
human heart. -NeW York Independ.

DOdglng the Tariff Issue.

Secretary OF the Treasury Shaw, who
has come to be regarded by many as
beginning to lean towards belief in
the wisdom of tariff revision such as is
desired by the American people, seems
to be more of an artful dodger on this
issue than is the nature of tariff
reiormer.
Whenever Congress reaches the
conclusion" said Secretary Shaw in a
recent speech, "that the friends OF
protection are strong enough to con-
servativsly modify certain schedules
so as TO meet changed conditions, and
at the same time successfully resist the
efforts of the opposition to revise the
entire tariff law, thus paralyzing busi-
ness for session, am in favor of it..
This in itself is rather cold comfort
for those who entertain hopes OF tariff
revision by Republican Congress,
but Secretary Shaw still further hens
himself and his party around with pre-
cautions against genuine revision OF
Dingley tariff. He has noted with
disfayor growing inclination on the
part of American voters to insure the
election of tariff-revision candidates to
Congress. 81 have expressed some
doubt, however, he says, "about the
wisdom of instructing by resolutions
or exacting pledges from candidates
for Congress, when the effort is liable
to precipitate protrscted debate with
very uncertain results"
And then he comes out boldly thus:
81 will not concede that tariff for
revenue only will destroy trusts on any
other theory than that fire in a
wheatfeld will destroy Canada
thistles."
This is just about as near as any
Republican will ever come to revis.
ion OF the tariff. That party will nc
more touch the Dingley duties in a
way to threaten the monopolies Of the
trusts than it will refuse to accept the
millions which the trusts contribute to
its campaign slush funds. In order
to fool the people there may be half.
way sort of promise to revise the tariff,
but this promise will be hedged about
with so many qualifications that it will
bind the Republican party to nothing.
Secretary Shaw's attitude is fair
illustration of the attitude of his party
II the Dingley tariff could be revised
to suit the people without injuring the
trusts, the Republican party would
favor revision. Under existing con
ditions, however, it is the champion
of the tariff and the trusts-and the
people may go hang,-St. Louis Re

Doctor Schenk's positive announce
ment some years ago that he had
solved this problem Of sex-control

sation. For a season the Doctor was
probably the most talked of man Of
the day. He came into communica-

nobility, gentry and the aristocracy oi

There was no limit to the fortune
and fame certain to be his if his
theories worked out as he claimed for
them. But this they failed to do, and,
despite his genuinely valuable services
to science in his Investigations of the
problem, the failure to demonstrate
his claimed solution placed Schenk in
discredit. He was expelled from the
university of whose faculty he was a
member, and was, in many ways,
made to feel that he was considered as
a charlatan in science. He is believed
by many to have died OF broken
heart owing to this disastrous termina.
tion Of his career.
The pity of his story lies In the fact
that Schenk was not mountebank OF
mere "faker," but very earnest and
sincere scientist, who made the one
mistake, fatal in science, of asserting
as truth that which he could not
dem onstrate in fact.-St. Louis Re.

campaign under the management of
men who piloted the Democratic party

six years the Republican politicians

The Fate of the Bachelor Who Lives
Selilshly.

when man tnds himself In his
forties and still bachelor he gener-
ally determines to take as much ease
and comfort out of life as he can get.
Long accustomed to think only OF
himself and provide only for himself,
he has developed a selfish disposition
and his own pleasure is the spring of
most of his actions. He has not
learned to deny himself qualification
OF the least of his desires, and he
barely tolerates the rest of humankind
as accessories to his comfort.
He becomes churlish.
If there is a crying baby in the
room next his at the hotel, the old
bachelor goes storming to the pro-
prietor and demands that mother and
babe be turned out of doors in the
middle of the night, as is done some
times in the melodrama.
A married man would enjoy the
baby's bawling and rejoice that he, at
least, did not have to walk the floor
that night.
If the waiter spills hot soup on the
old bachelors neck he raves like a
madman and sometimes swears aloud.
If he had been married he would
merely say, at is nothing" aud mop
his neck with napkin.
The old bachelor lacks that patience
and controlled spirit which mark a
well-broken married man. Living
alone and being surrounded by SER
wants. he expects people to anticipate
and supply his needs.
Instead of thinking and working for
others-a wife and children-he hires
others to think and work for him, and
that, naturally, tends to spoil him and
make him selfish and conceited.
Matrimony is a discipline as well as
a delight.
1t cultivates the philosophic temper
ment in a man and teaches him that
true humility which is the basis OF
both happiness and success.
The old bachelor, being self-cen-
tered, tends to become narrow in mind
and intolerant of other mems opinions.
He does not know that he has seen
only the dull side OF life, after all,
and that there is a good deal Of prac-
tical detail with which he is un-
familiar. His life is spent mainly
with men, but such is his conceit tina
he thinks he knows all about women,
knowledge that no married man, not
even Shakespeare, ever claimed he
had.
In the science of women's ways the
bachelor is mere sciolist, dabber.
His heart has not been refined and ex-
panded by love. He laughs at love,
skeptic that he is, and judges matri'
mony, not by the millions OF happy
marriages, but by the thousands ol
divorces. Fortunate he is if greed for
gold does not take the place in his
heart that love of one woman should
have. His only compensation is thai
he is not aware of his limitations OF
his misery any more than the clam ir
the mud is aware of what he misses by
not being man.
There are old bachelors who man
age to save themselves from the fate
of their kind, but they are not many
They are the ones who, fortunately
for themselves. have home to live ii
and parents or sisters to provide fol
and to love. Such one was Charles
Lamb, who ought to be the exemplal
of all old bachelors. st. Louis Wortd
