Business Women,

The question of woman's part in the
common business of life has been largely
decided, we are told. through the efforts
and example of a Swedish lady OF title
who took up with great enthusiasm the
ideas of Frederika Bremen. At present al
most all the women in Sweden are engaged
IN active employment. To quote:
THE trumpet call sounded by Frederiks
Bremen came at the very moment when at
tention was called to the number of I'M
married women. OF these there are
at present in Sweden more than 100, 600 who
nave 10 earn their own living. Then the
baroness Adlersparre appeared preaching
the law of labor and setting an example Of
Its fulfillment in her own family Labor
was soon looked upon by women as honor
apie as constituting claim to Individual
worth. Then it became the fashion, and
sweden is perhaps the only country where
this fashion predominates the feminine
world. In this connection it Is curious to
see now the Swedish woman refuses to be
looked upon as the mere ornament Of am
others life and claims her place as an in
dependent individual. Even when labor Is

WOMEN OF SWEDEN

Never Refuse to Abandon a Career to
Follow Dictates of the
Heart.

Translated in Literary Digest.
The Swedish woman is the most Amazo-
MAN of her sex In Europe, according to
Marc Helys, who Is so deeply impressed by
the fact that he writes an article In LIE Cor
respondant (Paris) about 1T. He reminds us
that in early days a javelin was included
In her trousseau and on her wedding day she
was expected to hurl this through the win
dow, "signifying by this symbolic act, her
readiness to take part in the defense of her
hearth and home" During the wars Of
Charles XII the women plowed. soyved and
harvested the grain, we are told. and &C.
cord.ng to the ancient Swedish law a wom-
an married ''in order to be mistress In her
house." and was to have the same rights
as her husband over ''ths bolts, locks and
keys of the home. It Is therefore no Won
der that femlnism, the principle Of woman 8
rights. has made great progress In sweden.
The occupation Of women In civil and pro-
fessional life, says Mr.. Helys, Is we'll nigh
universal she not only teaches, or under
takes the management of a bank, but learns
craftsmanship and military DRILL great
advantage, says the writer. in q country of
so small population, as in case OF foreign
war the women could defend the land when
it Is stripped Of male garrisons.
Education.
The progress OF Swedish women in educa-
ton was inaugurated by Frederick Bremen.
and it is continued by the existing Fred
erka Bremen Union. To quote from the
present writer:
THE progress of feminism henceforth was
rapid. In 1885 woman occupied some
what humiliatng position In the world of
learning. In 1870 she was admitted to the
university and the school of medicine, and
in 1873 she had the right to present herself
for examination In all the faculties except
ing that OF theology"
The method Of the Frederick Bremen
Union was to direct this onward movement,
says Mr.. Helys. In his own words:
1T was founded, according to its statutes,
to promote the calm and methodical devel-
opment of woman, and the ameioration.
moral and material, OF her lot. 1t begins
by impressing upon women their own value
as individuals. which they had so long lost
sight of. 1t labors for their independence,
ance with which at one time, In Sweden,
labor was considered to degrade a woman.
Education and independence-that Is in
creased Consciousness of worth and liberty
OF action-such was the dream Of F'rederika
Bremen and such the essence OF Swedish
femininism.''
Women of property as early as the
eighteenth century had vote In their own
commune and any woman who pays GER
extension of this privilege is at present be-
Ing agitated, says Mr. Helys, and he adds:
1T is only within the last three years
that this great question has been seriously
discussed in Sweden, and in the debates
that have taken place in parliament on
universal suffrage the vote for woman suf-
frage last session was 90 against 49,"

TO GRAND JURY
ACCUSED OF BEING IMPLICATED
IN SOUTH DAKOTA LAND
FRAUcS
ST. PAUL MAN HAS HEARING
WILL APPEAR AGAIN TO-DAY BE.
FORE COMMISSIONER
SPENCER,
WHEN BAIL WILL BE FIXED
FRAUDS INVOLVING THOUSANDS
OF ACRES OF LAND ARE
CHARGED.
WHEN BAIL WILL BE FIXED

St. Paul, March 12.-William T.
Horsnell will have to face the federal
grand jury, which meets next June, on
a charge of having conspired de-
fraud the United States out of public
lands. He was given q hearing yes
terday before United States Commits
soner Spencer. The commissioner
stated that he would hold Horsnell to
the grand jury, and intimated that the
bail will be fixed at $1,000. The hear
ing was continued until this morning
to give Horsnel an opportunity to Sc
cure ball. the amount Of which will
be announced this morning.
The authorities believe that Hors-
nell is implicated in land frauds in
volving thousands of acres. but the
evidence introduced at the hearing
yesterday and on which he was held
to the grand jury was in connection
with the homestead application OF
Miss Nora Goodkind. Miss Goodkind
is a St. Paul milliner. She was in
court yesterday and told that she was
induced to sign the application for
homestead grant without knowing
any more about it than that she was
to receive 500 and two trips to Da-
kota with all her expenses paid. She
said that Horsnell promised these
things in return for her signing GER
tain papers, the nature of which she
said was not explained to her.
This was in June, 1904, and one OF
the papers which she signed was an
affidavit that she was natural born
citizen of the United States and over
twenty-one years of age. At that
time, she said, she was only nineteen
years old, and had been in this coun-
try about five years. The papers were
signed in blank, she said, but when
presented in evidence at the hearing
yesterday they had been filled out,
and, in the application blank, the de-
scription of piece Of land in South
Dakota. said to contain 16O.4S acres,
was filled in the blank snace preceded
for the description of the land select
ed by the homestead.
Henry E. Cutting, receiver OF the
United States land Office at Pierre. S.
D., was called to identify the grant
selected on the application signed by
Miss Goodkind. He had with him the
book known as the tract book IN
which the description of lands select
ed for homestead purposes are en-
tered. This book showed that the
land described in the application
signed by Miss Goodkind had been
entered in the records os selected on
her application.

Henry Guy Carleton, wit, journalist,
and playwright, has an impeachment in
his speech about which he is not in the
least sensitive. EverybOdy's Magazine
tells this story about him:
Several years ago, when the Fifth
Avenue theater burned, Mr.. Carleton
appeared in the New York World Of
flee, where he was then employed, and
the usual Saturday night confusion was
increased by the late fire. The late
Ballard Smith, then managing editor
of the newspaper, was believing his
orders with all his wonderful vigor in
the effort to get to press on time.
g 'M-m-mister Smith, began NEf
Carleton, I've a g-g-great s-s-stor5r

Great Heavens, men, roared Mr..
Smith, don't stop to talk to me about
it, Don't you know this is Saturday
night, and we go to press in fifteen
minutes2 Get to work and write it,
and write it as fast as you know how
I want copy, not conversation. Don't
you know that every minutes is pre-
cious?'

They want to see the descendants of
James the Second put back on the

hatred of the present royal family, al

insult to the portrait of each stamp.

it is from a disconnected Jacobite. -

the prairie states of the southwest
than ever before in the history of the

return again. It is a different kind of
opening which lies before the settler
and its promise is of exceeding bright

transformation is going on and where
the conditions of soil and climate is
IN harmony with the warm skies and
temperate winds To the man who IS
rot satisfied with his condition, the
southwest has an inviting future.
Along the lines of the Missouri.
Kansas & Texas railway there are vast
areas of unimproVed lands awaiting
wiling hands to make them yield the
noa1ntifui crops of which the land is
capable There is a need of stores
factories and new business of every
description. It is the finest kind Of
