OF American Origin.

This International Council of Wom-
en- is the outgrowth of a movement
started by Mrs Elizabeth Cady Stanton
and Miss Susan B. Anthony during
visit to Europe in 1888. which at first
was intended to bring the women of
the civilized world together in an in
ternational suffrage association. This
eventually broadened into the great
council held in Washington in 1888 and
representing many forms of organized
work. 1t was the idea of Mrs. May
Wright Sewall that this council should
become a permanent association and
Mrs. Fawcett of England. wife of the
Postmaster General, was made the
president, with Miss Clara Barton and
Mrs. Rachel Foster Avery of the Unit
ed States as vice president and secre-
tary. The first of the auinquenniaI
meetings of this Council. held in Chi
cago in 1898. was the largest, except
one. of the many Congresses of the
worlds fair. At this time the Countess
of Aberdeen was elected president and
Mrs. Sewall vice president The meet

PLEADINGs IN yvooD CASE.


Supreme Court VIII Hear Armumemfs
In the Wood Case.
The Supreme Court OF Alabama will
meet this morning and hear arguments
on the pleadings in the Impeachment
charges made against Probate Judge
]. Colvin Woods of Lowndes county.
The court will, at to-dayes session ia
all probability, name a day for the
bearing OF evidence In the impcach-
ment charges against Judge Wood. The
charges. II win be recalled. were
brought as the law requires by i've
citizens and tax payers of Lowndes
county. They came as a result OF the
Democratic primary of last April The
back bone OF the allegations IS that
Judge Wood resorted to the purchase
OF votes to secure his denomination TO
the once of Probate Judge. Other
charges are made as to alleged neglect
OF duty by Judge Wood. but the main
question at issue is the alleged brib-
cry.
II is possible that the Supreme Court
may to-day hand down some decisions
as In cases pending before Il. A spe-
oial term of the court called especially
to investigate the charges against
Judge Wood will begin July /, folios-
ing the regular term which ends June

OUR WOMEN IN BERLIN.

writer from Berlin has the follow
ing to say of the women of the United
States at the Council of Women held
there:
The men of our country would feel
very proud of their women folks If
they could see the attention shown
them at these great international meet
ings They are never allowed to re-
main in the background even when the
characteristic national modesty would
impel them to do so. IF only we had
the liberty you possess" the other wo-
men say, IF only our men would let
us show what we are capable of doing
and being" and then invariably they
end with the inquiry. But why Is 1t
that you have not the suffrage, when
you have everything else?" 1t is in
deed a peculiar circumstance that of
all the twenty countries represented
here there are only two in which wo-
men have no franchise whatever-the
republics .of France and Switzerland
while in not one English-speaking ma
ton have they as few electoral rights
as in the boosted republic of the Unit
ed States. This fact tends effectually
to puncture any undue imitation of
pride.
The American Church was filled to
overlooking on the Sunday before the
opening OF llS meetings ana Wnen rev.
Anna Howard Shaw arose to offer
prayer the audience resembled a field
of wheat stirred by breeze as it lean
ed forward to see a woman preacher.
1t seemed most fitting that the first
woman who ever entered a pulpit in
Germany should be Susan B. Anthony,
for among the earliest demands made
by Mrs. Stanton and herself in 1852 was
one that women should be permitted to
enter the ministry and have part in all
church councils. It was a touching
spectacle-this grand old apostle of
freedom. now in her s5th year, as with
a tone of triumph in her voice she con-
trasted the position of woman now and
half century ago. Tine tnsn.ring ad-
dress of Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait
which followed brought the audience
so near to applause that Miss Shaw
came quickly forward to pronounce the
benediction and request that they OBJ
serve reverently the day and place.
Rev. Dr. Dickie looked proud and
pleased as he offered his arm to Miss
Anthony, literally to rescue her. as the
entire congregation of women pressed
forward and fairly took her in their
embrace.
