Judge Stephen A. Lowell, of Pendeton, Ore, de-
clared in a recent address that THE reforms OF
the last century have come from women. Man
has few to his credit because he could not measure
them by the only standard he had mastered that
ot the dollar. Witness the movement for female
education led by Mary Lyon, the birth OF the Red
Cross IN the work OF Florence Nightingale the
institution CT modern prison methods under the
inspiration OF Elizabeth Fry, and the campaigns
for temperance and social purity under the leader
ship Of Miss Willard" He might have added that
the modern institution OF trained nursing which has
revolutonized the hospital systems of the civilized
world. was also founded by Florence Nightingale,
and introduced into America by an association Of
women connected with Bellevue Hospital That
the door into the medical profession opened
TO women by DR.. Eliza beth Blackwell That the
kindergarten was introduced into America, where
it has had its widest development, by Elizabeth
Peabody And that the American movement for
the protection OF child laborers was instituted by
Florence Kelley.

The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Herald has the following to
say OF the representative from this dis
trict in the neyt Congress Col. Tom
Davis. who was elected to Congress from
the Second district of West Virginia,
after Mr. Dayton resigned his seat to go
on the federal bench, will be the most
aged man in the House of Representa-
tives when it meets on December d. He
is approaching his 10Th year, but from all
accounts is still clipper and vigorous like
his brother, who ran on the national
Democratic ticket last year with Judge
Parker. Being new member and a
Democrat Colonel Davis will not gel
much of a committee place, but because
of his advanced age and the reputation
of having overturned Republican dis
trict he will doubtless be a commanding
figure on the opening day of Congress .

Big Fire Near Summit Point.

The large frame Switzer barn on the
farm owned and occupied by Mr. E. A..
Colston, near Summit Point, was de-
stroyed by fire Sunday evening about
five o'clock. Size of building was 5oxSo
feet and had only been built few years.
In the barn at the time of FIRE there were
700 bushels of wheat, so bbls. of corn,
rs tons of hay and all his farming nipple
ments, and other contents. The fire
was supposedly caused by small boy
living with Mr.. Colston playing with
matches and setting fire to a straw rick
adjoining the barn. Mr.. Colstou was in
the barn at the time, and succeeded in
turning out the horses and cattle, and
so no live stock was burned. The total
value of property destroyed will proba-
bly, reach $4,000, which is partially COW
cred with the agency of Washington g.
Alexander. who on yesterday promptly
adjusted the loss.

Emulsion offers a reliable
means of remedying i'm
