BRETON scOLDs AMERICAN.
 WOMEN

In her outlook on pleasure. as in her face toward the more serious elements of life, the American woman still be- trays that weakness of her nature. She has perfected the cult of pleasure as no living being in all the history of the world.
 A certain common bond unites the drabwCmaa on her farm and the belle on Fifth avenue. The one has HUtle part or lot in the distractions of life, the ether is swallowed up by them; but in the bosom of each. as Stevenson has finely said in another connection. the same hands pluck and pull them The one in her vanities, the other in her duties-both move to the nervous strings of the racial spell.
 It has been objected that criticism which aimed at the vOluptuaTy woman in America can only be fairly directed against a single class, and that a small class. This is a mistake; for 1t is the spirit abroad among American women which the critic calls in question, and that spirit is visible n all classes of real Amercanized women, whether in the daughter of the millionaire or in the factory hand. l. is the spirit of independence which finds it's logical is sue in cold selfshness. The factory girls refuse to be married and take up the burdens of maternity; they put their savings on their back and have a good time" The careful researches of Mrs. Van Worst have demonstrated this fact beyond question.
 That rupture with the ancient and traditional sphere of woman is to be observed in all American classes. WO- man has arisen, insurgent and denies her proper sphere. Her constitutional restlessness has driven her to abdicate those functions which alone excuse, or explain her existence.
 In this year of grace 1904, at a Vvo- mans congress in Berlin. the world has been informed by an American woman that the female element is the central and older element, the male the later and younger and that with the beginning of the wOmans movement an era will be inaugurated which will bring about the end of male rule" It is satisfactory to learn also that Mrs. Perkins, the lady in question, stated that it was not the intention of women when they came to their own, to act toward the male sex as do the bees toward their unhappy drones-
 These are but e1tarvagances symp- tomatic of the general disease. The nervous equilibrium is gone and woman has fallen from her throne. It may seem odd to make such a statement when the American woman is enthrOu- ed at the moment higher than her more dependent sisters of Occidental Europe. But the world is divided into three parts-the East, the West and America; and the riddle of the last is more difIi- cult than that of the other two. En- lthornization is the reward of that race of woman who fulfil the requirements Of nature. Do the American women2 HI. B. Marriott Watson in Nineteenth Century.

that fear Him and in those that hope in His mercy'-Mr. Boston after an in troduction in four sections, deduced six doctrines, each subdivided into from three to eight heads. but the last doe Urine required another sermon which contained a practical improvement of the whole arranged under eighty-six heads. A sermon on Matthew xii, 2S, was subdivided into seventy six heads" On this text, indeed, MT. Bos Q ton preached four such sermons.
 It is more doubtful whether any brains or hearts south of the Tweed would have stood the strain of such discourses. But a Scotch preacher, not in the present degenerate age, has been known to preach from five to six hours at a stretch. and sometimes when one preacher had finished his sermon an other would begin. and there would be a succession of preachers delivering sermon upon sermon, until the unhappy congregations were kept listening to 'the Word" for as many as ten hours without a break.-Bishop Weldon in Nineteenth Century.

CRAZE FOR CRYSTALS.

A crystal craze now holds sway. Crystal escritoire sets are works of are.
 The newest in individual salt cellars is clear glass block with a circular depression for the salt.
 An invalid's jar for the crackers or the little delicacies that an invalid likes to have convenient on the bedside table is a small edition of the usual cracker jar shape in cut glass.
 Toilet articles are also made of crys- tal clear and colored. One luxurious woman, whose dressing room is in white and gold, has her dressing table set with bottles, boxes, trays, etc, of clear crystal upon each of which IS stamped her monogram in heavy gold relief. In mauve and green, with touches of gold these sets are very pretty and one set in rose-hued crystal was quite enchanting.
 Crystal lamps of blue, red. greer. and the amber and bronze tints are shown among the novelties and crystal can de sticks are more in demand than those of silver or brass. Slim. clear crystal candlesticks, with fluted shades .of lowered chintz are char1ningIy or nomental and useful on my lady's desk or manbel shelf, especially if the apart ment be furnished in light coIors and quaint style.-Philadelphi Inquirer.

WHEN CURTIS SPOKE.
Stirring Event in the Convention That
 First Nominated Lincoln.

Among the most inspiring recollec- tions of my life is a scene l witnessed in the republican National convention of 1860 which nominated Abraham Lin coin as it's candidate for the presidea- cy of the. United States.
 The convention was about to vote up on the republican platform reported by the cOmmtee on resolutions Then arose the venerable form Of Joshua R. Giddings. of Ohio. one of the veteran champions of the anti-slavery cause He confessed himself painfully sur prised that the Declaration of Indepen- dence had not found a word of recog- milton in that solemn announcement Of of the republican creed, and he moved to amend tn platform by inserting in a certain place the words:
 That the maintenance Of the prin- ciple promulgated in the Declaration of Independence and embodied in the Federal Constitution, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalien- able rights; that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, essential to the preservation of our re- publican institutions"
 The convention, impatient as su-h assemblages are apt to be at any prop OSLl-tth threatening IB QGldN the QeS- patch of business, heedlessly rejected the appointment. MT. Giddings, a look of distress upon his face. his white head towering above the crowd, slowly and sadly walked toward the door of the hall
 Suddenly from among the New York delegation a young man of strikingly beautiful features leaped upon a chair and demanded to be heard. The same | noisy demonstration of impatience
 greeted him. But he would not yield "Gentlemen," he said in calm tones, this is a convention of free speech and l have been given the floor. ] have but asfew words to say to you | but I shall say them if I stand here until tomorrow morning.

 his courage won and silence fell upon | the assembly. Then his musical voice rang out like a trumpet call. Was this | he said, the party of freedom met or

 almost defiant appeal he renewed the
 amendment to the platform moved by MT. GiddinEs. and with an overwheIm. 1 ing shout of enthusiasm the convention
 adopted it.-Carl Schurz on "Georg,

OCEANS WEALTH IN REACH.
HydroseoPe Enabes Man to Peer Down
 Into Depths of Sea.

Tn addition to the uncounted mil- lions of sunken treasure, the boundless natural resources of the ocean lie at mans mercy" quotes a London cable to the New York Sun.
 In these words Dr. Carlo Iberti, the manager to Pino, the inventor Of the .hydroscope and elevator. sums up the possibilities of the new device.
 Dr. Ibert is now in London, and has just completed a research. at the Brit ish museum, of manuscripts referring to the Spanish galleons that lie fathoms deep in Vigo bay.
 T found everything l wanted there" he said, and sooner or later I shall publish the story, which will enhance the interest of the enterprise upon which Spanish syndicates are now en- gagged at Vigo."
 But treasure hunting. ia the popular sense of the phrase, is not the sole or even the main purpose to which the inventions are 10 be applied. The sea has much useful wealth to disgorge besides the silver dollars. golden guin- eas, and rOtting hulks that rest on it's bed. -.-,
 Good Times for Fishermen
 "GuanO," exclaimed Dr. Iberti, "is something the hydrOscope has located. The exact position is Pino's secret, but be has had specimens examined by chemists, who have pronounced it much more powerful than any known deposit.
 The value Of such a discovery-in view Of the ever decreasing quantity available for the markets-can scarcely be ovcrestimated."
 pr. Iberti then proceeded to speak of the use of the hydroscope by fisher men. "Hoats now go to work in the dark" he said The nets may strike a shoal and reap rich harvest. Bu. with tEe new invention aboard the skipper can from the vessels deck peer down into the dark depths and with hold his nets till he is sure of his fish.

There is Q bank in Japan which has produced and yet produces, the three varieties of cor aired. rose, and white-to the worth Of over a million sterling each season. But there are hundreds of other. and even richer banks. These we can dis cover, with the result that the worlds returns will be increased a iundredfolC. 'Dhe same thing applies to pearls and sronges.

 If good pearls are found in any large quantity however, the price must de- | crease; and that-if all that is claimed for it will be true-will be one result of the use Of the hydroscope. The val ue of coral would also rapidly decline

LAW DAY PROCEEDINGS
The Old Arizona Democrat Case to the
 Front Again.

The case of The Arizona Democrat Publishing company (which is itself only a memory against sam Webb, IT,. came up in district court yester- day on motion by the plaintiff for new trial. The motion was argued and denied and notice of appeal to the supreme court was given. 4 stay of execution for thirty days was allowed and the supersedeas bond was fixed at $500
 This is the title of a suit, the orig inal contention in which has passed into forgotten history A judgment had been recovered by Webb against the publishing company and it was paid. Before the payment, however, and af- ter the securing of the judgment it was garnisheed by W. C. Dawes and he having secured judgment in a jus tice's court, the sureties of the publish ing company satisfied his claim and endeavored to take credit on the origi- nal Judgment. A great many innocent persons including the sheriff and oth- CTS who had never been implicated in the printing beusiness in their lives and never intended to establish a guilty connection with any publishing concern became involved. It was finally order ed that the original judgment would haveto be satisfied in full in cash. It is from that Judgment that an appeal has been taken.
 In the cast of J. M. Jamison against the Black Warrior company for legal services the defendants motion to dis miss was withdrawn. A demurrer was overruIed in the case of Sarah F. Muse against Amy Muse. In the suit Of Judge Adams against Fannie Adams. the demurrer to the answer was over ruled.
 In the suit of the New Vulture Min ing company against Charles Kirsley and others the defendants motion to strike and Kinsley's demurrer were set for hearing Oct. 22. Tn the suit of J. J. McCabe against w. w. Cook. sheriff. and others, the defendants motion to strike and demurrer were argued and submitted. In the case of c. J. Ride nour against w. c.

DEFENSE OF MANAGERS.

To the Editor of The Republican. sir:
 | In your issue of October 9th, notice a letter written by one who claims to have had some experience in the the atrical business calling attention cf the residents of Phoenix to the poor
 shows that the local theatre managers | have presented at their houses lately. | I take the liberty of answering your | correspondent in defense of the man agers and, also to explain not only to him but to the people of Phoenix how
 hard it is to get good shows to play your city.
 In the first place a manager of any theatre cannot possibly be conversant with all the shows on the road. He has to depend a great deal upon what ma terial he can gather concerning a com pany from notices and criticism he | gets from the press, but chiefly from the theatrical papers published in diff fenent parts of the country. When your local manager receives the advance letters from the manager of any company enclosing glowing ac- counts of the said mana gers play both from the daily press and theatrical pa pers, and asking for open dates, your manager is very apt to book said play ] II pOSS4Dle. IL MOulQ De dll uLlGE HI possibility for him to see all plays and pass judgment upon them before play ing them.
 Then again he has to cater to the masses in a small city and they can not afford to pay the prices that the best attractions have to play to to pay expenses.
 Phoenix is the most expensive town for q theatrical company to make in the southwest, and, unless a manager can see his way clear where he is going 10 pay more than expenses, he will not play it, as none are in that business for the fun there is in it.
 I am not upholding the last show, "The French AIilliner' Go. I am will ing 10 acknowledge it not only to have been poor but was even worse.
 Concerning the objection of your correspondent to old plays under new names I would like to refer him to the past ten years and snow him where old plays have failed under their orig inal names and made good under new names. the most notable of the many being Hernes' shore Acres" which for two years was played as Town Lots to loss. After changing the name it was one of the greatest of our late successes.
 In conclusion I will say do not blame your local managers. I know from per sonal experience they are doing their
