DAY OF MARRIED WOMEN.
One writer lays all the blame for the al

wives and mothers. To-day. he says. is es-
sentially the day of the married woman
The unmarried girl is nonenity. How
ever beautiful accomplished and charming
she is easily eclipsed by her older but mar
ried rival. This being so, the girl is, in
common with the home, neglected by the
mother, whose own amusement takes up
her entire time and is left with the fixed
idea that when in her turn she, too, is mar
ried she will take good care to obtain the
attention and amusement she is now miss
ing. In this way the evil of domestic decay
is apparently to be perpetuated until the
men take it into their own hands to rele-
gate married women TO their proper station
in the home So at least thinks one man,
and if we might judge of English society
generally by what is seen in London So
ciety, this estimate would not be very far
out of the way.
In it's more serious aspects this discussion
turned upon certain glaring defects of the
English law. Married women have not the
rights they ought to have. A wife cannot
obtain divorce upon merely proving that
her husband has committed adultery, she
must prove cruelty as we'll. whereas
man can cut the woman adrift upon the
former charge itself. A married woman.
having property of her own, must have the
husbands cooperation in dealing with it,
whereas a man can dispose of his property
without the wife's consent, and may, at his
death, will the whole Of it away from her.
The attitude of the British man, one writer
said, is to be master and keep the woman
under. Truly, she adds, the pride of man

TO the American gentleman, while another
refers approvingly to that American law
which gives widow one-thrd of her late
husbands estate, and hopes that soon a bill
may pass Parliament insuring the same act

THE PRESIDENT AT HOME.
self Is Welcomed Warmly by his
Old Friends of Oyster Bay

Oyster Bay, L. l., July 5.-Presi
dent arrived here at 5:l6 this after
noon and was given very cordia
welcome. When the train ap.
preached thg little station of the
Long Island Railroad every whistle
in the village through pre-. arranged
signal was set going, and the old
friends and associates of the Presi-
dent gathered on the platform to ex-
! tend their greetings. When he
alighted they completely surrounded
him and for a time prevented his
children, Alice, Ethel and Archy,
who had been waiting his coming,
from getting to him. When finally
they did sc .e embraced them in q
manner that gave unmistakable evil
pence of his delight at being at
"home." Mrs. Roosevelt did not
come to the depot, but Assistant
Secretary Loeb was there. After
exchanging greetings with his friends
and neighbors the President entered
an open surrey with his three chill
dren and started in a violent rain
and thunder storm for "Sagamore
iIill." Neither he nor the children
seemed any worse for their drench-
ing.
During the journey from Pittsburg
to Oyster Bay the President fre-
quently spoke of how glad he was at
the prospect of being with bis family
and escaping to considerable extent
many of the official cares which had
constantly beset him in Washington.
The trip from Pittsburg was with.
out particular incident. The Presl-
dent was compelled to make one
speech at Lancaster, where in re-
sponse to calls for "Teddy" he ap.
peared on the rear platform and
spoke briefly, saying he was glad to
be greeted, and knew his hearers
would be glad that he was going
back to his family for holiday.
The enthusiasm over the Presidents
appearance was very great.
At Philadelphia the President re-
marked to a friend: 81 see by the
papers that my boy shot a frecrack-
or in a g.ass bottle and cut his head.

dinners for the poor of London. The
King received many kilograms of
thanks and congratulation from the
scenes OF these festivities, declaring
that the pleasure of the occasion was
vastly enhanced by the tidings that
his Majesty was out of danger.
The appearance of Queen Alexan-
dra as she drove out in an open car
riage for an hour this evening, &C.
companied by some of the royal
guests at the palace, occasioned much
enthusiasm in the park and on the
streets which her majesty traversed.

GREAT FIRE In CHICAGO.
Swift and Compsny's Big Packing Plant
Million Dollar Loss.

Chicago, July By a fire which
broke out in their plant at the stock
yards tonight, Swift & Co. suffered
loss which is estimated by the off,
ciaIs at 100000. The fire was
confined to one building standing at
the intersection of Packers avenue
and Broadway. This structure was
four stories high, built of brick, and
was 800 feet square.
The first floor was occupied by the
Wholesale meat market of the COM
pany, the second by the shipping
department and the third and fourth
by the general Offices of the company.
The latter are said to have been the
largest sin ngle Offices in the United
States, more than 800 employees
working on one of the floors in a
single room.
The cause of the fire is not known,
but it WAS discovered near the engine
room. 1t spread so rapidly through
the building that it was found i'm
possible to save anything il the
structure.
The burning building adjoins por-
tions of the plants of Armour & Co.,
and Libby, Mcneil & Libby, and for
time the fire department had a
desperate fight to keep these build
ings from the flames. w. j. Nc
Gonigle, the superintendent of the
plant, said tonight that the loss will
aggregate fully one million.
The loss is fully covered by insur'
ance.

The main dinner was at Fulham,
where Sir Thomas Upton, who or
gsnized the whole feast, did the
honors of the day to $4,000 of the
poor, aided by a host of titled and
untitled volunteers, including Timo-
thy L. Woodruff, Lieutenant Cover
nor OF New York State; Vice Com
modore Bourne, of the New York
Yacht Club, and other Americans,
who handed round plates of beef
and pudding or filed beer mugs with
an enthusiasm emblematic of the
whole spirit of the occasion.
The Prince and Princess of Wales
paid their first visit to Fulham.
They entered the park of the Bishops
Palace through triumphal arch and
were received by the Mayor of Full
ham, Sir Thomas Upton and others.
Their royal highnesses were enthusi-
sstically greeted by an immense band
of scholars, who sang "God Save the
King" The Prince and Princess
of Wales alighted and walked among
the marques, where the guests were
assembled around two and one-half
miles of tables, evincing the utmost
interest in everything. At the head
Of the table in the central marquee
the royal party stopped and the
Prince Of Wales read this mornings
bulletin regarding the Kings health.
This was the signal for tremendous
outburst of cheering. Before leaving
the Prince of Wales expressed to the
Bishop of London and Sir Thomas
Lipton his great satisfaction at the
completeness of the arrangements
and emphasized his great regret that
the King was unable to be present.
This was sample of all the other
dinners, which were followed in every
case by variety shows, upwards OF
1900 operate, theatrical and music
hall artists and 418 pianists giving
their services for the occasion.
During the course of the afternoon
a second message from the King was
read at the various gatherings, say
log his Majesty was very glad to
feel that they were his guests and
hoped they would all be happy and
comfortable and spend pleasant
afternoon.
Although no more evening bulle

Washington July 3.-Maj. Micah
Jenkins was formally notified today
by President Roosevelt that he has
been selected to succeed George T.
Rooster as collector of internal reve-
nue. for the district of South Caro-
lima. Major jenkins called at the
White House today, had a short
consultation with the President and
his appointment was assured. AS
soon as the necessary papers can be
prepared in the treasury department
a commission will be issued to Major
jenkins. Major Jenkins enters upon
his new duties without political
pledges to fulfill or any partisan
friends to reward. The appointment
came to him unsought and he pro-
poses to administer the Office to the
best of his ability. In discussing
the business of the collectors office
he indicated a desire to have the col
lector's Office transferred from Co.
lumbia to Charleston, and that will
probably be one of his first official
recommendations.
The President also disposed OF
two other troublesome South Caro-
lima appointments today before ne
left for Pittsburg by reappolntlng

postmasters, respectively, at Charles

known reason Mr.. Short, who failed
of confirmation as postmaster OF
Sumter, was not included in the list

Office department it is said that an
other man may be commissioned for
that office, although no definite &C
tion has yet been taken in that dlrec-
tion.

B-r-r,r-bang! The green baize
doors between the presidents Office
and Secretary Cortelyou's room
crashed outward and cracked against
the wall. He came through about
like 13 inch shell would have come

With three hops, a skip and a
Jump he was in the middle of the
room. The 25 Or 30 people waiting
for him huddled against the wall.
He wore a long coat that tapped
behind him, and a white vest that
nestled snug around the increasing
paunch that exercise has not kept
down. Every tooth was cleaning
in the morning sunshine.
He looked around the gathering.
"Hi, McComas, McEnery!" he shout,

his private Office.
"Where's Burrows?" he said.

! PENSIONS FOR DEsERTERs
Among the Numerous bills which
we're rushed through in the closing
hours of congress was one introduced
by Senator Pritchard, of North Caro-
lima, providing that those Confeder-
ate Veterans who enlisted and served
ID the Federal army prior to January
I, 1866, should be eligible to receive
pensions from the United States gov
ernment. When this matter was
brought mp before Commissioner OF
Pensions Fl. Clay Evans, several
years ago, he ruled that men in this
class we're not pensionable. BY the
passage of this bill about So, 100000
in pensions will be disbursed in
North Carolina and Tennessee.
There is another clause in the bill
which is likely to be far-reaching in
its effects. This clause provides that
where a soldier has deserted from the
United States army and is subse.
quently re- enlisted, and been granted
an honorable discharge, his former
desertion shall not initiate against
his eligibility to receive a pension.
By this clause man may have de-
serted number of times, yet If ne
succeeds in getting into the service
and out of it again with an honora
BILE discharge the slate is wiped clean
and be is eligible to be placed on the
pension rolls. There were lO7,OOO
desertions during the civil war and
it is estimated that this clause in
Senator Pritchard's bill will add
100000 yearly to the pension
account.
