Richard Hinton, with his sombrero and
bearded face and his brave, true soul.
She attracted him, he attracted her.
and they were married. And after that
Isabel gave up her life to her husband
us before she had given it to her chilli
dren. Little cared Richard Hinton for
occultism and mysticism. He was
stepped to the lips in plans for helping
the living, throbbing, material mankind
he saw all about him, and his wife
dropped her plans for his.
Colonel Hinton was identified with
the labor movements; Mrs. Hinton be-
came identified with it too. All they
had, their time, strength and such
wealth as they possessed they gave to
it, in company with John Swinton and
some others. Wherever words were to
be said for liberty and prosperity for
all, there up spoke Richard Hinton;
there went with him his wife as his 81
lent partner, silent to the outer world,
but helping grandly behind the scenes.
Colonel Hinton was the close friend
and platform associate of Susan b. An
thony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Luz
cretia Mott.
! OF the famous women who do things
Mrs. Hinton has at one time or another
met nearly all in America and Great
Britain. One of Mrs. Hintons friends
| in England is Mrs. T. p. O'Connor. OF
American women engaged in active life
| in London none is more sought after
| than Mrs. O'Connor, who is really the
chief writer on IN. A. p (Mainly
| About People,. Mrs. O'Connor was
Miss Pascal, a gifted American actress
whom r. p. O'Connor met in Washing
| ton and fell in love with. She is as brill
liant and popular in London literary
society as she formerly was on the
stage, a pretty woman with a singu-
larly magnetic manner. Her play "The
Lady From Texas made a great hit in
! Lone on, then went to Australia. 1t
satriZes the British aristocracy, who
| have the good sense to be amused at 1t.
But of the women Mrs. Hinton knows
we'll none seems to her so remarkable
as Clara Barton, founder and builder
of the Red Cross in America If there
really are any such beings as the
adopts" of oriental philosophers, then
| Clara Barton comes very near being
one. She seems to need little food or
sleep, works all the time and appears
never to grow weary. During the Red
l
! yers and witnesses, young men In the
prime of health and vigor, were worn
out before the case was finished; MISS
| Barton remained calm, unWorr1ed ana
| unwearied to the end. Her hair at the
age of seventy four is dark and album
dant. She has the power and Will OIL
an eagle. At night. while others sleep,
Clara Barton sits at her desk ana
writes and plans. She has recentiy
published book, much of which IS au
robiographical. She is born organ
yer of large affairs, and her executive
ability is most surprising to those VINO
know her best.
Poor Lucy Parsons, the fiery erratlc,
radical orator whose husband was
hanged as sequel to the Chicago Hay-
| market riots. was another whom MIS-.
Hinton know we'll. After her HUSBAND
execution Lucy Parsons went BACK TO
| her trade of dressmaking ana thus
brought up her two children.
| And now at the end of all this exclt-
! ing drama Isabel Hinton is alone ana
once more free to write and study the
, hidden powers of the human mind.
