He was brought before the police

/ empty-handed. 1t is the reverse when
they leave. We take the baggage
away from the women, and hand it to
the men, with instructions for them
TO carry it. The woman looks on in
dumb amazement for an instant; then,
If she is an Italian, she makes a dive
for the family bundles: she doesn't
seem to want to burden her husband,
or else is afraid to entrust the be-
long1ngs to him. And when we pre-
vent her from securing the baggage
and tell her that men carry the bur-
dens in America. and start them to-
ward the pier, she follows her liege
lord with an air which seems to say:
Wei, that's your way, but 1 know my
husband, and you don't and I'm going
to keep a sharp eye on that bundle
ION the other hand. the woman
from northern Europe seems to grasp
the idea at once. At any rate, I've
seen many German or Scandinavian
mother smile gratefully when she was
relieved of her bundles and behald
them placed in the hands of her hulk
ling and dazed husband. And from
the new light in her eyes 1 verify be-
leVe that her emancipation began at
that moment.
still another new idea is furnished
by women relatives who have pre-
ceded the newcomers here by several
years. They appear at the island with
bundles under their arms and wait pa
tiently until the newcomers are
passed. Then they make a dive for
them, surround them, chatter like
magpies while they are opening the
packages, and the next moment the
immigrants are stripping off their old
garb and arraying themselves in Yam
kee shirtwaist suits and street cos
tunes. Yes, indeed and they don't
take time to go into the room which
we have provided for such exigencies.
You can see them making their light
ming toilets in the corridors, in front
of the station, and even on the pier
while waiting for the boat. And it is
rearkable how expeditiously they
make the change. and with what little
display of their persons. Really,

All right says she. Now, Tn

goin' to say that you'll have to say to
me, is "Lyddy." an after that an in
cludin' that, you promise that you'll
say jest what I say?'
I promise I said.

with that 1 grabbed her in my
arms, an I guess 1 nigh squeeze the
life all out of her. By Quincy, 1 could
no more help a-doin' that! 1 Rugged
her hard. an I says to her, says T.
that perhaps she'd better come along
with me, and we'd go to the parsonage
and save some time. She says all
right to that.
And then she went and stuck her
head through the door that led out to
the settin' room, an she calls out:
Ma, I'm goin' down to tn preach
er's house with Obed to git married."
"All we heard, by Adams was a
kind of gasp and stutterin': but her
ma liked me real well and was glad of
it, only she said she might although
up some way little better if we'd give
her any time. 1t only took tn Minis
ter about five minutes to do tn work
in, an'-an' Lyddy-Lyddy's been my
wife ever since"
The tide had ebbed and it was much
easier for me to get off the ship than
it had been for me to board her. As
stumped away the captain said
II didn't git around to pay that trib-
ute to the women folks. now did 1?
Well, come agin."

The Italian woman is especially
adept and also the one most likely 10
be met with relatives bringing a new
wardrobe. Sometimes she is quite
loathe to don it, and no wonder Per
haps only a few hours before she
squatted unconcernedly down on a
steamship pier the moment she land
ed, opened her baggage, and, partially
screened by a group of sympathetic
fellow passengers, carefully and with
much pride arrayed herself for the or
deal at the island in the finery that
she displayed the day she was married
even to her stockings, if she wore
any. Naturally, she rebels at the die
tum of her Americanized relatives
especially when she recalls the look
that her Tomasso gave her when he
beheld her issuing in all her wedding
glory from the midst of the shielding
circle. But eventually the American
idea prevails, and off comes the we'd
ding gown and on goes the pique shirt
waist and the short walking skirt.
No, none of them seem to have any
idea about woman's suffrage But
the average American woman doesn't
either, does she? And you don't have
to want to vote to be a new woman,
do you? What?"
