IDEAL IN HoUsEKEEPINa.
Honored Old Customs and Conditions
 Are Passing Away.

EeoTl4 herAiu-Iranscr1pt.
 A generation ago to be an ideal housekeeper was the chief ambition of almost every woman M gh. desired a faireI fate than 10 be placed at the head of a household with a good and loving husband to supply all her wants and make her the mistress and the queen of his heart and his home. In most cases the girl who started housekeeping had more or less experience in the art under the tuition of her mother. She loved to decorate and beat tify the house which to be her home during tho rest Of hel earthly pilgrimage She loved to create delicacies for her husband and her children and. disguise it as we may, much of the anection she received was due entirely to her skill as homemaker. When her children grew up around her this kind and sympathetic mother and the pantry were the chief attrac- tions in their world. As they grew older the ties only grew the stronger. When they &C., quired families of their own the old home stead, with its abundance of good things still had attractions for them. The kind old mother was still their best friend. She knew all the difficulties they had to encounter in starting homes of their own, and her advice and sympa- thy were worth more to them than gold. The grandchildren came to venerate her as a sort of venerable goddess, and when she finally went away from the home circle she left a vacancy which could never be filled.
 But we are assured with every symptom of rejoicing that these conditions are passing: that women have been "rnancipated; that in tn future they are to be the rival, instead of the helpmate of man. and that they must combine to enforce their just demands against the hos tility of the male sex. This is nonsense pure and simple. It may be true that there are more mannish women in this generation than there were in the last. It Is unfortunately true that a larger proportion of the female popu- lation has been forced to be self-supporting, but 1t is not true that women enjoy the so- called liberty which goes with toiling for living.
 The home instinct is too deeply planted in the heart of women to be removed by the ef- fects of a generation of club work. It will

THE BURGLARS uNron..
IA Plea from the "Amalgamated
 Burglars' Protective Union"

A Plea from the "Amalgamated
 Burglars Protective Union" From Letters from the People, New York
 Post.
 | am a member of the Amalgamated Burglars Protective Union. Formerly, our occupation was a very remunerative one, but in recent years, business has fallen of so much that we can barely get a. living wage. The reasons for this are various. The decline in the price of silvef, the increased number of safe deposik companies and banks, the many Improvements in locks and bolts, and East and chiefly, the unreasonable strengthening of the police force in town and country-all these things have so se- riouely reduced the profits of our busi- ness that many of our, most talented operators have had to seek employment an other directions.
 What Il wish to urge right here Is the restriction of the powers of the police force to such reasonable limits as not to interfere so much with our work. Af- ter all. what are the police but the paid hirelings of the trusts, and the plutocrats, and the bondholders, ever ready, like the militia, to turn. their weapons against the poor workingmen, who is only fight ing for his share of the good things of life?
 In this connection, the recent action of the employees of the Chicago Street Rail- ways can not be too highly commended. Weary of the tyranny of their employers, these noble fellows have struck, not so much for higher wages or shorter hours, but rather to secure for themselves some of the control, which has been so long and so seifisly monopolized by the com pany. They have demanded: First, that the company shall employ none but un- Ion men. Second. that they (the em- ployes) shall have control of the routing of the cars, i. G., the assignment of the men, and the selection of the working hours. Third, that no employe shall be discharged without the consent of the officers of the union, who are to be the sole judges of their conduct"
 This has the true ring to it. Let all our labor unions strike at once for the enforcement of such principles, and we shall soon be rid of the overbearing tyranny of the employer. What an ad- vantage it would be, for instance, for our own union, if none but union burg lars were allowed to work, and if the route of the policeman's beat be only such as approved by the union, and lastly. that no burglar be arrested, ex- cept by consent of the officers of the union, who shall be the sole judges of his conduct.
 Surely 1t is high time for some such curtailment of the police arrogance as

would give proper scope for the exercise of our own operations.
 Look for 8 moment at the unjust in- equsEties of our whole industrial sys- tem. When a rich man wants anything, he takes it. Of course,- he pays for it., because he happens to have the money. But if a poor man takes anything he is unable to pay for he Is immediately bounced upon by the minions of tue law and punished. Is this right? Is not this an unjust discrimination against the poor in favor of the ric.I?
 y Welcome the day when all these infa- nous tyrannies shall be abolished and universal liberty be extended to all: lib- erty to take what we want, and do as we like.
 Recent events in the coal region, as well as in Chicago, are only an indica- ton of what is coming, and the united efforts of all our labor unions should be steadily directed towards the consumma- ton of this happy end.
 Too, close application to business hav- ing necessitated my temporary retire. ment to the country, am unable for the present to take an active part in these important movements, but I am profit ing by my leisure to reflect more fully on the subject and you may hear from me again. c.

New Kind of Catarrh.

Physicians in London have discovered a new disease. which they call 'the dan. cer's catarrh." According to them 1t only attacks professional dancers. and espe- cially those who are members of a bal let. After executing a few steps the dancer. they say. feels a sharp pain in the nose, and this is the first symptom of the malady. Soon afterward the nos trils become inflamed and the disease assumes a form very similar to that of influenza. The physicians are trying hard to discover a remedy for the dis ease, and are confident that in time they will succeed. Meanwhile several persons in London are suffering so much from dancers catarrh'' that they have besn obliged to cancel their engagements.

Iusr ABOUT WIpoWs.
There are 1o5, ,ooo in New York City
 and 9 7oO. 900 in the Nation.

A Chicago mathematician announces that Chicago, with 6o.s96 widows. has larger number than any other communi- ty in the country. It is added that the number of widowers in the city Is only 2S,O97.
 As a matter of fact. says the New York Sun, the State in which widows are most numerous is New York, in which they number S2O.OOO. The city in which they are most numerous is the city of New York, where there are 105,OOO.
 There were by the last Federal cen sus 2.72O,0OO widows in the whole United States of whom, 1t is worthy to remark. 5000 were in Indiana and only 5000 in Utah.
 There were 12S,OOO in Massachusetts, less than the total number in the two States of Alabama and Mississippi, though the view pretty generally pre- vails that the number of widows is dis portionateIy large throughout New Eng land.
 There are nearly 2,OOO in Hawaii and 1,7OO in Alaska. a approximately larger number than in the city of Chicago.
