Education of Women.

Miss Susan B. Anthony in Golfers Weekly.
',The progress in education is so marked
and so well understood as to need but little
comment. When, in 1851, Mrs. Stanton,
Lucy Stone and I made a demand that girls
in the state of New York should be permit
ted an opportunity for a college education,
there was not even high school open to
them in the whole United States. Oberlin,
Ohio, was the only college they could enter
and there were no preparatory schools to
fit them for that institution. At the present
time they are admitted to all the state
universities except those Of Virginia Geor-
ga and Louisiana, and to all the large uni
versities of the middle and western states.
The recent most unwarranted and retro
gressive action of Chicago University in
'segregating' the women students shows
that the battle is no tentirely over, but the
end is in sight" Miss Anthony says that
there are now 100000 women wage earners
in this country and that. the occupations in
which they engage with few eXcep-
lions the occupations of men. Miss An
thony says: 1.-The laws taken as a whole.
are by no means exactly just to women but
there Is a steady tendency toward Justice
and practically no retrogression."

Owls in Winter.

From the Womans Home Companion
Owls are really much commoner in WIN
ter than one is led to believe by the occa-
sional specimens which are seen abroad in
the daytime. II we searched the hollow
trees systematically this morning we should
probably discover several screech-owls, and
perhaps some of the larger species. We
might be surprised to find some Of the
screech-owls red and others gray, and, like
the early ornithologists, we might conclude
that the difference in color was due to diff
ference in age or sex. 1t is now known that
there are two distinct color phases of this
species not dependent on either age or sex,
though just what they are dependent on is
not yet known.
=, When taken from their retreats in winter
these birds frequently fegn death-shutting
their eyes, and lying perfectly still In the
hand. BY and by, when they find that their
little ruse does not succeed. they will snap
their bills and bite and scratch in a solemn
but very effective manner. How they
manage to get enough to eat on these dark,
cold nights is a mystery to those unac-
quainted with the woods, but as matter
of fact there is more prey abroad on winter
nights than is generally supposed. Wild
mice are very numerous fact which Is
attested by their footprints on the newly
fallen snow-and owls are most expert
mouse catchers. Their hearing is so acute
that not a squeak escapes them and they
themselves are so soft on the wing that
they do not alarm the game.

Economy" in Republics"

From the London Chronicle.
That economy is 7eminently a republican
virtue Is again brought to mind by the re-
port that President Castro, during his three
years of office, has accumulated a nest egg
of half a million sterling against the day
of retirement or overthrow. He was penni-
less when he became president. Mr.. kru-
gers fortune has been estimated at sew
eral millions. Last April Gen. Simon Say
was deposed from the presidency of Haitaf.
which he had held since 1896 at a salary OF
"a 800 per annum. He is now living COM
fortably In Paris on the income from f2vDy
GOO, which report credits him with having
wisely invested in European securities.
Such thrift begets jealousy in political op-
ponents and is accountable for the con-
slant revolutions in Central and South
American republics. A few years ago Guate-
mala was rent in twain by the proof that
President Barrios had secured f1.00o,OO0 OF
the states money and invested it. in his
wife's name, In Europe. The Guatemalans
did not Gust Barrios, arguing that he mad
made his fortune out of them, and that to
elect new president would mean second
fleeing!

QUININE SCARCE.
Common Drug Needed During Civil
War Worse Than Ammunition.

From the New Orleans Times Democrat
I'VE needed quinne worse than we need
ed lead and powder during the war between
the states,' said the old soldier as he
glanced up at some Of the relics on the
wall and in the show cases at Memorial
Hall, land if we'd had more quinine there
wouldn't have been so many of our COM
rades sleeping now in unmarked graves.
Quinine was the one thing we needed above
everything, and it was the one thing we
couldn't get except under the most difficult
circumstances. How many men we would
have saved during some of the swampy
campaigns of the sixties IL we could have
secured quinine in proper quantities there
is no way of telling, but it is safe to say
many lives would have been saved. You
can bet we had hard time OF 1t when it
came to the matter of getting quinine.
IT believe the Union soldiers paid more
attention to the business Of keeping US from
getting quinine than they did to the matter
of keeping our supply Of ammunition down
to a minimum, and they knew we could
shoot pretty WELL too. But they knew also
that General Ague was not slow when it
came to decimating the ranks of an army
of men. Besides, the aforesaid general would
save them some trouble. But speaking OF
quinine reminds me of a little experience I
had during one of the Arkansas campaigns
and 1t shows just how difficult 1t was to get
Quinine. 1 got hold Of a few ounces OF
Quinine and wanted to smuggle 1t into the
confederate lines. There was absolutely no
chance in the world to do 1t If 1t should be-
come known that the package Contained
quinine. 1 finally figured out a scheme. I
bought SIS worth of salt from a smugeler-
and put the quinine deep into the salt SO II
could not be found without pouring ali the
salt out. knew could get the salt through
the lines. 1 got 1t through and the soldiers
got their quinine. They didn't need the
SALT but 1 never made an investment that
gave me more satisfaction than that SIS |
paid for the SALT

Lady Maxim's Happy Thought.

From the london Chronicle.
Sir Hiram Maxim is telling a story which
Is to the credit OF the mutoscope and Lady
Maxim's ingenuity. Sir Hiram and Lady
Maxim were staying at a southern watering
place. When the time came to pay the bill
on leaving the landlord of the hotel looked
askance at the proffered check. He knew
the name but had no evidence that the
slgner was the owner Of It, And Sir Hiram
had not enough cash in his pocket to meet
the case. Then Lady Maxim invited the
proprietor to go down to the pier. nnt y
penny In certain slot and look. He did
SO. And he saw a living picture of Sir
Hiram firing Maxim gun in the presence

London Is frighffnny Anticipated in its
