the Approval or ACCOMPLISHMENTS
 law of the Late Secretary Hay-OdeJl
 Forces ROuted--NO Attempt tc Se-
 cure Secret BaIlOt--The Vote.
 Albany, N. r., Jan. 2.-James w. Wordsworth, jr., of Livingston county, son of Congressman James W. Wads- worth of the Thirty-fourth congress sional district and son-in-law of the late Secretary of State John Hay, and a graduate of Yale but few years ago, was nominated tonight by the republican assembly caucus for speaker of the assembly, and will be elected to that office tomorrow when the assem- bly, conyenes
 MT Wadsworth had 75 of the 104 votes cast in the caucus, Edwin A, Merritt, jr, of St. Lawrence receiving 14 and J. MayheW Wainright of Vest chester, 15.
 The vote was taken by open roll call, and there was no attempt to secure a secret ballot. as had been expected.
 This result brings to a close one of the most remarkable speakership cam paigns in recent years, characterized by marked factional bitterness. MT. Wadsworth was not among the candi- dates originally in the field, but was proposed by Governor Higgins in a formal statement, and In addition to the support of the governor and his friends, was regarded as having the approval of the president.
 MT. Merritt had the backing of State Chairman B. B. Odell, jr., and his friends in the state organization, who fought with marked determination for his election, or, failing that, for the defeat of MT. Wadsworth.
 After learning the result of the cau- GUS, Governor Higgins said
 1T am neither disappointed or sur- prised. The voice of the people and of the press has been heard here, and the representatives, of the people in the as- sem!bly have, in my opinion, followed the sentiment expressed"
 ''I have no comment to make on the action of the republican caucus" said former Gov. Odell tonight, except 10 say that am grateful for the twen- ty-nine votes. I am not at all dis heartened by the result"
 Both houses of the legislature will convene at noon tomorrow. After the organization of the assembly the an- nual message of Governor Higgins will be read, and the legislature will then adjourn probably for one week, until Wednesday evening, January 10.

"A Claim That officers of the Typo

 tion in GeneraI--EstabIish an Em- plOyment Bureau.
 New York, Jan. 2.--Twelve hundred union printers, the employees of forty four book and job printing concerns in New York city, went on strike to-day and began the struggle for the eight hour day which has been declared to go intJ effect to-day Members of the local typothetae, against whom the strike was declared, asserted tonight that hundreds of non-union printers from various parts of the country are hurrying to New York to take the places of the strikers and to secure the high wages paid in this city. Represent tatives of the typographical union de- clare the 8-hour day principle has al ready been won in New York, and that the percentage of men compelled to strike is very small.
 According to an official statement is- sued tonight there are eighty-eight firms associated in the local typothetae Of these twenty-five have consented to the eight-hour day, Forty-four firms have decided to adhere to the nine-hour day rule and seven firms already were operating on the open shop principle. Twelve members of the typothetae have as yet reached no decision.
 To provide steady supply of non urion men, the employing printers have established an employment bureau in this city which will be run in connec- tion with similar offices in other cities. It is said no discrimination will be made against union men at these em- ployment stations.
 George H, Ellis of Boston, president of the United Typothetae of America, came to New York to-day. In an inter- view MT. Ellis said
 "The officers of the typothetae are much pleased with the present situation of the strike in all parts of the country. We expected great deal of trouble, but thus far we have had very little"

KltLSU HIMsELf
To Avoid Bling Arrested for r bling
HIS Bank.

HIS Bank.
Irwin Tucker, president Of the
Savings bank OF Newport News, Va,
committed suicide in his room over
the bank in Newport News Saturday.
just as Chief CT Police Reynolds Of
thst city opened his door to arrest
him upon a warrant charging him
with defaulting in the sum OF $40, 600.
Tucker heard Chief Reynolds ask
negro porter on the cusside as to the
location c: his room and standing In
front OF mirror put bullet through
bis right temple as the door was
thrown open.
The first suspicion that Tucker was
a defaulter was received Saturday
morning in a note written by the
suicide himself. This note was found
shortly after the doors OF the bank
we're opened Saturday, 1t having been
placed On the desk OF cashier r.
Carter Perkins. Tucker admitted
that he was short in bis accounts and
said il any attempt was made to
arrest hin he would commit suicide.
Immediately the directors Of the
bank we're called together and
hurried examination resulted in the
ISSUANCE OF the warrant. 1t vas sus-
pected that Tucker had left Newport
News and the police CT Norfolk and
other neighhoriDg cities were asked to
look out for him.
Chief Reynolds then went to make
al investigation Of fuckers bachelor
apartments over the Savings bank,
~here the tragedy occurred. An ex-
animation Of the safety deposit box
in the Savings hank revealed the fact
that fuckers life was insured for
$50, 900, which will cover all OF his
alleged defalcation. The Savings
bark of Newport News was largely
natroniz7d BY the Ia a3oring classes Of
Newport News. President Tucker
aas about 40 years OF age. BE was
the son CT former Mayor John S

woman's Right Place.

For hundreds of years woman was
yery much circumscribed in her sphere
Of usefulness. She had to trod along
in the same old tracks that her moth
ers had trod in or be astrocised by So
ciety. Our fathers thought their
wives and daughters just a little too
good and fine to come in contact with
the rough edge Of the world, and hence
the circumscribed sphere in which our
women were allowed to move outside
the home circle, where in every well
regulated family she reigned supreme.
Woman. in a general sense, was re-
garded as inferior to man in mental
as well as physical strength. Our IA
theirs were not altogether to blame for
that. 1t came down to them from the
days of Adam. He did not have the
chivalrous feeling for women that.
every true man should have, or ne
never would have attempted to shield
himself by casting the blame OF their
mutual sin on Eve, saying vi was
tn woman Thou gavest met" Adam
was not only coward. but an un-
gallant coward, or he never would
have lodged behind Mother Ewes
petty.coats in trying to save himself.
Time has changed all that, we are
glad to say, and today woman Is re-
garded as mans most intimate friend
and safest counsellor, and if he were
asked who it was that inspired bim to
all that is noble, true and beautiful In
this life, and with a hope Of a better
life, in the world to come, be would
answer as before, but this time with
out the stain and shame of cowardly
eQuivocation. yet pruthfully and joy
ously, SIT was the woman Thou gav-
est me-" Woman, the graz st and
nob,est work of the Creators hands, is
mar's equal in every thing, and mans
superior in macy things. Teach your
boys. mothers, to hcnoi and revere wo-
manhood, and thus inspire tn N to all
that is true and good.
