Tha Woman Question.

John Graham Brooks in an address on Some Economic Aspects of the Woman Question" said: Women who used to work in the home are now doing the same work in the factory under different conditions. The making of jam. soap, candles, etc, and one of the great pri- mary industries, the making and dis tributing of clothing, all of which used to be done at home. now occupy millions of women outside the home. This disposes finally of the argument that woman s place is home. Industrial evolution is taking every bit of woman's work out into the world. to be done jostling with men, under such difficulties and dangers as the worlds open market implies, and the calls for every whit of protection we can afford her.

CURED OF HIS BAD HABIT.
After Receiving Letter the Young Man Abstained from Flowery
 Language.

AS93A6 O<s60s
 Los Angeles Times.
 A few months ago the son of a rail- way director was, through his fathers portance on a large railway. He was fresh from Cambridge and in the orders which he from time to time issued to the men under him always made use of the longest, most unusual words. This habit leu to some rather expensive blunders and. the matter coming before the gen. eral manager, he wrote the young official the following letter:
 Tn promulgatinug your estoteric cogi- tations and in articulating your super ficial sentimentalities and amicable phil osophical or psychological observations, beware of platitudinous ponderosity. Let your conversational communication pos sess a clarified conciseness. a competed comprehensibleness, a coalescent consist ency and a concatenated cogency. Eschew all conglomeration of fiatulent garrulity, jejune babblement and asinine affecta- ton. Let your extemporaneous descant- ings and unpremeditated expatiation have intelligibility and veracious vivacity with out rhodomontade or thrasonical bom- bast. Sedulously avoid all polysyllable profundity. pompous prolixity, psittac- eous vacuity, ventriloquial verbosity and vaniloquent vapidity. Shun double enten- dre, prurient Jocosity and pestiferous pro- fanity, obscurant or apparent. In other words. talk plainly. briefly, naturally. sensibly purely and truthfully. Don't put on airs; say what you mean; mean what you say. and don't use big worlds The young official took the gentle hint and changed his style.

lege closed its doors behind her. ehe had decided that opthalmology should be hei special branch of practice. She attended opthalmic clinics and lectures in London studying under Dr. Cooper. In Germany where professional women had little show Dr. Dickinson became the private pupil of Dr. Adolph Weber, who had private hospital and gave clinical instruction With painstaking exactness she mastered every possible detail of her specially.
 Then, full of enthusiasm for her work she returned to Chicago and began it. She speedily became known as one of the leading oculists of the west, and in the Postgraduate School of Medicine in Chicago the chair of instructor in oph- thalmology was offered to her. She ac- cepted it and still holds this place.
 There is in Chicago a growing co-edu- cational institution called the Harvey Medical school. Of this s-.4ool Dr. Dick inson. formerly secretary. is now the president. Into furthering its destinies she throws the power of richly resource full mind. One feature introduced by her into college work is the use of the ordin- ary embroidery hoop in teaching embryo doctors to make surgeons stitches. Men and women alike learn thus. She acts also as physician gratuitously to the Jun for Business club. an organization that takes charge of homeless boys and teaches them to earn their living.
 Nor Is that all. She has studied care fully the chemistry of foods and the science of common things intimately con- nected with daily life. She finds that death from accident, fire and from insan- itary kitchens and conditions Is more com- mon among housewives than among per- sons of any other trade. It Is her opinion also that if Carnegie would establish lab oratories as well as libraries he would be infinitely more useful to the world. These laboratories should be working schools in which adult persons in their leisure hours could gain a knowledge of chemical, phy- sical and electrical sciences.
 Dr.. Dickinson was the first woman ad- mitted to membership in the International Medical congress. Besides membership in various medical societies she belongs also to the Chicago Academy of Sciences and to the American Academy of Political and Social Science. Among organizations of her own sex she is an earnest. active member of the Chicago Woman's club and

Dr. Frances Dickinson,
 Physician and Humanitarian Worker.

The ranks of the coming woman have sweiied until they now constitute a great army. A little ahead even of their ad- vance guard are some who have already arrived, and of these Dr. Frances Dick inson or Chicago is a shining illustration. Though only now grazing the edge of the years when she can be chased as middle aged. she is skiliful practicing physi- elan and noted oculist,, the president of a medical college and an active member or several medical societies, a prominent woman's club woman. a busy, enthus- iastic worker in philanthropic enterprises an excellent writer and a fluent. logical speaker. Besides all that she is back of the project to establish in Chicago a oaily newspaper to be conducted "by women for everybody" She could mol accomplish so much as she does were sne not a thoroughly healthy woman of energetic temperament and one who be- siaes knows how to systematize every thing she takes hold of.
 Aspiring. brainy girls who have marked out TOT themselves career in some trade or profession will find hope and inspira- ton in Dr. Dickinson's story, because fl IS the story largely. of a self-made wo- man.
 Frances Dickinson was born in Chica. go or Massachusetts parents. Her moth- .. HShN" AhtuOuys was or quaker stock. which perhaps partly accounts TOT Frances ability to speak out in meeting What is more, Dr. Dickin- sons mother was an aunt of that old Roman of the woman's cause, Susan B. Anthony. It Is much to have the same blood as Susan B.s stirring in ones veins. The gentle yet strong Ann Eliza Anthony Dickinson was the first to or ganize Society of Friends in Chicago From her, too, the daughter inherited that sentiment of human brotherhood which flinders it's possessor from being quite happy, knowing that hundreds of thousands of beings in Gods image have less chance for life than a we'll to do American farmers cattle. Mrs. D.ckin- son was active in labors of charity and benevoIence.
 besides this Dr. Frances father was a model of paternal parent in that he believed in girls doing things. He be- lleved in women. He considered the pro- fession of medicine specially fitted for women because intuition. sympathy and deiicacy of feeling" are so constantly

by piutocrats and proletarians. The day of reckoning has come. and the score is enormous. The right to issue watered stocks and the right to prevent men from working really rest upon the same moral foundation. In either case, the old doc Urine that might makes right Is exploited to the full. Greed. not conscience, is the criterion. E
 Of couse. these are but passing phases of the Republics evolution. Tn the end. substantial justice win be done. The predatory capitalist will be brushed aside, and so will the oppressive walking dele gate. Nobody can pretend to say how the reform will be wrought out. The successive steps must be taken from day to day, s'the occasion serves. <. We may. however, assume that State socialism will never have much charm for the av- craze American, but necessity knows no law. The pigmy Caesars have got to go, and 50 have the giants. The millions viii not be enslaved by minority, however aggressive it may be. We are long-suf- fering race. but we sometimes sact with out counting the hazard. Let the graft CTS" of high and low degree have a care. Their time is 9hort-their doom Is cer- tain.

The Pacific Coast Trip.

It is admitted on every side that the President did not pay for the train to the Pacific coast on which he made his long trip of sixty-six days, beginning in April and ending in June. It is estimated that this train cost nearly $1,0OO day. Indeed, the exact cost of the train is given by those who have means of knowing as $6S,0O0. This money was pro-rated by the Pennsylvania road, 1t is claimed, among all the other roads over which the train passed, and they paid their share of the hauling expenses. It is not known here, but an earnest endeavor will be made to find out whether the Pullman Company or the Pennsylvania paid for the food and drink service. There was lavish supply of cigars, champagne, whiskey, beer and mineral water on the train, and every guest was free to order what he liked.
 A person who goes with the President on a trip goes as the Presidents personal guest His invitation so reads his bag gage Is so marked, his credentials declare this and the private secretary of the President controls the party as guests. The train is treated as the Presidents house, and the idea is carried out that all are visiting him. He discharges all the munctions of a splendid entertainer: but 1t is asserted, and this Is the point on which information is sought, that he does not pay the oills. Ihese are sent to the railroad.
 Those who have the proposed inquiry in hand allege that. not only on the long Western trip, but on every other trip the President has made, the same lavish en- tertainment was given the guests, and that in no case has the President paid the bills or any of them. There have been twenty five of these trips of greater or less length besides the few times the President has come from Oyster Bay to New York and back

THE POISONED cHALIcE.
The Result Will Force Reduction by
 Colossal Concerns.

The Result VIII Eoree he0ucClOn py Colossal Concerns.
 New Orleanh Times-Democrat.
 Wall Street is drinking the poisoned chalice to the very dregs. At the present rate of decline, Steel Common will be sponged from the board at no distant day, and other windy tndustrials tend steadily toward the vanishing point. Stocks of undoubted worth are dragged down by the weight of the shady securi- ties. Big people have to sell and small people will not buy, so long as the pres ent conditions prevail. Public opinion has been profoundly shocked by the revela- tons in the United States Shipbuilding case. It may be doubted whether all the banking houses in NewYork could to- gether effect new fiotation. In all such transactions character is the principal thing, and 1t is quite right to say that no names weigh with the average in- vestor just now. Financiers of the high est repute have played fast and loose with the money and the confidence of their clients. Speculative credit is dead, though the country itself has undergone no essential change. We should be glad to think that the consequences of the col dapse will be confirmed to the boomers and their dupes, but the facts lend no support to such optimism. Indeed 1t is already too plain that labor must carry It's full share of the load. From all parts of the land comes accounts of enforced retrenchment by colossal concerns. The New York Central Railroad is reducing it's staff and the directors of the United States Steel Corporation have determined to apply the knife. This action is in- evitable, and the responsibility does not | rest with capital alone. Certain mis- guided leaders of the unions have done all they could to bring enterprise to a halt. The level of production has be- come prohibitive. No architect can pre- | tend to estiamte the cost of a Nuilding with any approach to accuracy, nor is it possible to fix the duration of the work l In such circumstances. the only sane course consists in pausing until the clouds roll by.
 As We have repeatedly pointed out, the
 hard times of the future will be totally
 dinerent from the hard times of the
 past. Mills and factories will not be kent
 going at loss. lest rival manufacturers
 take artisans and trade from their idle
 brethren. No; the trusts were formed to
 meet the very contingency which confronts
 all captains of industry today. Every
 superfiuous plant vii be shut down and
 an army of workers will be converted
 into tramps. It is easier to imagine than
 1t Is to describe the problems which such
 a displacement of labor must beget. The
 barometer Is low, and is falling fast, | The spectacle is a sad one, but nothing
 IS to be gained by blinking 1t. The na- ton has stood idly by while the first prin-
 clpies or It's policy were laughed to scorn

FAN MACLAREN PREDICTS WORLD WILL BE SWEPT BY
 WAVE OF RELIGION /
Like That of First Century-vital Force is Needed-Holds Time is Ripe for Society to be Saved
 from the Dullness Into
 Which It Has Drifted.

New York Special.
 The Rev. John Watson Qan Maclaren). enthor Of Beside the Bonnie Brier lush" has published a brochure which expresses the belief that the world is on he eve of the greatest religious revival nance the days when all Rome succumbed - th9 teachings of Christ in the first cen- knry.P The first copy of the document reached this city today from London and naused considerable discussion at the Presbyterian headquarters, in Fifth Ave- nue. where 1t was received. The preach Ar-author says:
 The two most prominent factors in the world today will derive the most benefit From this world wide revival
 They are. first, the ell to do classes. rolling in opulency and ease-the proud and naughty, who look down on the rest of the world. They will be shaken outfof kheir self-composure and sehishness.
 Second. the proletariat. who in this csty, as every one knows. reads the Ciar- Son. and in America, as every one knows, khe anarchist organs. These will be ben efited by the new coming of Christ into <hs hearts of the people. These have been Alienated from Christ in a way the church has no conception of.
 Tt Is not wonderful that the working men have left the church, since they have reason to believe the church sided with me capitalists in the city and the land- lords in the country. The church has not take nthat humane interest in the work ing men it should
 The Rev. MT. Watson then complains Chat the word has not advanced with years, and Is at standstill as far as re- ligion and certain phases of literature are concerned. No great men are being brought into active life.
 He continues: Except in the realm ot science no real progress is being made no great men are rising. no poets, nc novelists, no painters. no statesmen, nc preachers. It Is an age of mediocrity and commonplaceness.
 ''We are tired. therefore we are restless and Matthew Arnold's words are stil truer today than when he wrote: You, creeds are dead, your rites are dead, you social order. too; where tarries he-th, power who said: See, make all thing new.!''
 What does all this mean? It mean the world is in want of something. fl want of a revivifying force If there eve was a time when the orld needed this that time Is now.

High Tide of Wages.

Chicago Special to Times-D Democrat.
 Chicago. Oct. 12.-Employees through out the city feel that the high tide of wages has been reached. Unionism can not force pay higher than 1t is now they say.
 "Retrenchments are the order of the day." declared W. E. Glow of J. B. Glow & Sons, treasurer of the employers association.
 ''The unions have undone themselves Before the winter is over men will be laid on in every line of industry.
 Workers have limited production. For instance, the unions have caused one of our employers to make only thirty pieces of a certain kind of work, when he can do seventy. Employees must change their tactics and work under a fuli head of steam. They now have the biggest trust in the country.
 T look for a readjustment that will re- store business to it's normal condition The effect of high wages, wages forced up unnaturally by monopoly will be seen first in. the discharge of employees The tumble will begin some time this winter

women,s Clubs.

Miss O. M. Rowe of the Association of Women Workers. says of feminine clubs {: There Is no place where so many types meet on the same basis of friendship. There meet the earnest, quiet women, the fun-loving ones, the women of means and leisure and the woman who never has a dollar except what she earns by her own hand work. They all come together and interchange Ideas
 The average woman is inclined to be narrow and to move in the same groove and with those who have the same pleasures and tastes but in this mingling with all classes on the same footing she becomes broad her angles get rounded off and many preconceived notions are knocked out of her head"

 School gardening has been begun in New York in connection with the public school at 53d Street and 18th Avenue. The children were marched to this garden du- ring the spring. 25 at a time. and given instruction In the making of furrows and in sowing and covering seeds. The work interested them during the spring. and boys would work over hours in order to be permitted to take a few hours at the farm. In this city similar work has been done at the Church School Home for Children, in the Summer Boarding Home for Jewish Working Girls and in the Col ored Orphan Asylum. It ought to be pro- vided in connection with our public schools. All new buildings in the grow ing wards ought to have a space sufficient for school garden. It Is little short of disgraceful that private, denominational schools should be providing out of their own scanty means facilities which this great and healthy city denies to its chill dren.

Special Trains Almost a Fad.

There has been much discussion among the politicians of the special train idea, as applied to the presidency. and 1t has been declared in many quarters that President Roosevelt has been more lavish in his acceptance of the hospitality the railroads are always glad to bestow than any other president since the railroads began to have special trains and special cars.
 Complaints have come to Washington from some railroad men that President Roosevelt considered special trains and special cars as a part of the perquisites of the presidency, and ordered them whenever the humor seized him. This complaint has. of course, been of the most quiet and discreet kind, for there is no railroad in the country that would not supply the President with a special trakQ every day in the year if he asked for 1t, and smile at the chance. no matter what the private feelings of the of1cials and stockholders might be. The railroad feeling, as evidenced by these whispered complaints, has been that the President
