WORK. OF JEFFERSON,
It Certainly Entities Him to the Ma
tons Gratitude.
Memorial to the Author OF the Dec.
laration Of Indepe ndence to BE
Erected at Warrington By
Public Subscription.

II ought to be easy for the Thomas
Jefferson Memorial association to ac-
eomllish its purpose. The association,
which has a branch in each state, and
which has Admiral Dewey at it's head,
has issued an appea! to the American
people for funds to erect tablet, mon
ument or other memorial to Jefferson
at the national capital. The intention
is not to ask anything from congress,
but to rely solely on the voluntary con-
tributions of the people. The admiral
says that 1.-The character and cost of
the proposed memorial cannot now be
stated, but twill be appropriate to
the greatness of the man and the i'm
porta ncv of the document from which
his name is inseparable. Rigid econo-
my will be observed in carrying on the
work."
Here was buried Thomas Jefferson,
author of the Declaration of American
independence, of the Statue of Virginia
for Religious Freedom, and Father of
the University of Virginia" This in
scription OH his grave in Monticello,
written by Jefferson himself, omits one
very important claim which its author
had on the remembrance of his coun-
trymen. It made no reference to the
Louisiana expansion, which is the act
of Jefferson's that is uppermost in the
minds of his countrymen at this time.
Oddly, too, Admiral Dewey, who has
just issued his appeal for funds for
the memorial, seems not to have had
this act in mind. Jefferson's and Dew
ey's countrymen, however, will supply
the omission. The statute of religious
freedom for Virginia and the creation
of the great university of that state,

san B. Anthony.
For Over Fifty Years She Has TOiled
to Secure Equal Legal and PO-
litical Rights for the
Gentler Sex.

February Is was the anniversary of
the eighty-third birthday of Miss
Susan Browneu Anthony. twas more
OF less generally observed throughout
the country by members of woman
suffrage associations and other &C.
quaintances of this noted reformer.
POSSIBLY no woman ever lived" says
one of her friends, ''who has given so
many years of active work to re-
tormatory measure and has been left
with such wonderful vitality
Born at South Adams, Mass, in 1920,
this girl of Quaker parentage was early
taught the Importance of courage, self
reliance and of thinking and acting for
oneself. Indeed, courage has always
been her strongest characteristic. Miss
Anthony's early education was OBJ
tanned from school supported by her
father for his own children and those
of the >neighborhood, and later at a
Quaker boarding-school in West Phila-
delphia. At about this time her fam
ally moved to Battenville, N. Y. She be-
gan teaching at the early age of IS,
though this was unnecessary at the
time. When she was about IS years
old, however, her father, a cotton man
ufacturer of considerable wealth, lost
every penny of his fortune. The
teaching had to be continued and it
was IL years later before Miss An
thony gave up this line of work for the
one which has made her so we'll known
all over the world. She was teaching
away from home when the first wom-
ans rights convention was called at
Rochester. Later she became interest
ed in it's cause and has ever since been
its most ardent supporter. In 1852 she
aided in organizing the first State
Woman's Temperance society On. W.
She became active during the civil war
in anti-slavery and women's rights
work and was secretary of the Wom-
ems National Loyal league. During
the early discussions on the woman's-
property-right bills Miss Anthony per-
sonally circulated hundreds of petit
tions, both civil and political, travelling

out naming a successor, in 1875, and,
until 1889, his aunt, the empress dow
ager, acted as regent, as she had done
previously during the long minority
of his predecessor, who was her son.
On Sept. %, 1898, in consequence of
the emperor's action in decreeing radi-
cal reforms, he was sequestered, and
the empress dowager resumed the &C
tive direction of affairs.
Under her rule the plot was Matched
to rid the country of foreigners, and in
the summer of 1900 the legations in
Pekin were attacked and the foreign
settlements in Tientsin were bonn ba I'd.
ed for weeks.
The situation was relieved at it's
most critical moment by the arrival of
an allied army dispatched by all, or
nearly all, the treaty powers. Tientsin
and Pekin were captured. The imperial
court fled and remained in voluntary
exile until early il 1902.
The emperor and empress are now in
Pekin, but the times in China continue
to be more or less troublous for the
rulers Of the great empire.

WASHINGTON'S PISTOLS.
Valuable Weapons Are Subject OF
Legal Dispute at Present Time
a. to Ownership.

Oddly, two flintlock pistols which be-
longed formerly to George Washington
are the subject of dispute just now
as to ownership, incidentally to the
settlement of an estate in Prince Will
liam county, Virginia.
The weapons which, says the New
York Herald, are a perfectly matched
pair, are in the possession of Miss
Monnie Marsteller, who lives in Wash
ington, at 225 E street, N. w.
Some time before his death Gen.
Washington gave the pistols to Mr..

Mr.. cambridge died they were disposed

through the state in all sorts of
weather and in all sorts of vehicles
sometimes even tramping on foot
and often meeting with most discour-
aging. even insulting rebaffs. In 1865
she founded a women's rights paper,
the Revolution, and managed it for
several years.
There is scarcely state in the
union where Miss Anthony has not
worked, and she has lectured widely
both in America and England. Since
1869 she has been granted hearing
before committees of every congress.
During the "a years of the existence
of the National Woman Suffrage asso-
citation she has held high offices and is
now president of that organization.
Her contributions to leading maya
zines have been many. With Mrs.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Mrs. Ma
tilda Joslyn Gage she is joint author OF
a three-volume work, "The History
of Woman Suffrage"
In the preface to her "Life and Work
of Susan B. Anthony" Ida Hustled
Harper says: "The transition of the
young Quaker girl, afraid of the
sound of her own voice, into the re-
former, orator and stateswoman, is
no more wonderful than the change
in the status of woman, effected so
largely through her exertions. To-day
American women are envied by those
of all other nations, and stand COM
paratively free individuals, with the
exception Of political disabilities. Dur
ing the so years which have wrought
this revolution, just one woman in all
the world has given every day of her
time, every dollar of her money, every
power of her being, to secure this re-
suit. She was impelled to this work
BY no personal grievance, but solely
through a deep sense of the injustice
which, on every side, she saw perpetu-
ated against her sex, and which she
determined to combat. Never for one
short hour has the cause of woman
been forgotten or put aside for any
other object. Never single tie has
been formed, either of affection or
business, which would interfere with
this supreme purpose. Never a speech
has been given, trip taken, visit
made, letter written, in all this half
century, that has not been done di-
rect1y in the interest of this one OBJ
iect. There has been no thought of
personal comfort, advancement or
glory; the self-abnegation, the self
sacrifice, have been absolute-they
have been unparalleled"
