MARRIAGE ONLY
MERE INCIDENT
Speakers at Palmer House Declare
Husband Is but an Rppendage
or Adjunct of the
Wife
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
CHICAGO, June 10-Marriage has
become a mere incident in the life of
woman; man is but an appendage, an
adjunct, a corollary of woman. In
short, man is not nearly as important
as he. with fatuous self-conceit, i'm
AGNES himself.
So speakers at the session of the
National Business Woman's league in
the Palmer house declared, all the
speakers being women.
In art, in music, i'm literature, in
medicine. on the stage, as nurses as
court reporters, and in numerous other
vocations, professions, trades or crafts,
men are by no means the whole thing.
Most startling of all, a man as hus-
pand does not summarize the entire
universe. A husband is an incident not
creation.
Marriage but an Incident
"Marriage?" asked Miss Louise Lee
Hardin of Denver. president of the
association. why, marriage is no
longer everything in a woman's life. 1t
is getting relegated in the mind of
woman to it's true place in the propor-
tionate scale of things, and is becoming
an incident.
Marriage is but an incident in the
life of a man, why should it not be so
in the life of woman?
Women of today must have other
interests in life besides the hearth, and
think it is very good thing for
woman herself and for the nation as
whole that we are becoming weaned to
some extent from the idea that mar
riage is the all-and-all of woman's
career"

Speculation on Adjournn1en t.-Spoc-
ulation as to the date Of adjournment
Of congress is active. Naturally the
members would like 10 get away as
early a possible. but the prospects are
that this will be the longest session
for a number Of years. As everyone
knows. each congress has long and
short session. Elected in November
at the even numbered years, the mem
bcrs take their seats on the first Mon
day in December OF odd numbered
! years. Thus, the members of the
present house were elected in Novem-
| Der. 1904. but not sworn in until De
CembCr. 1905. The session beginning
| in the odd-numbered years, which is
| thus the first regular session of a
congress. can continue for whole
year. if the members care 70 sit that
! long. for II can run up TO noon on the
| frs Monday Of the even years, when
! the second regular session must begin.
! The second or short sessions always
terminate at noon on the fourth OF
! March in the odd years, but that is
! when the terms of the members OF the
| house expire and there is no house
OF representatives" until the new one
is orcanized the following December,
unless congress is convened earlier in
! special session by the president.
! Because Of this situation the congress
! tries to get as much work out OF the
way in the long sessions as possible
and the greater part Of legislation
enac-cd during the life Of congress.
| with the exception Of the apprOpria-
| tion bills. which have to be passed
each session, is perfected during the
long session and either passed or put
| in shape for hasty passage at the
| short Sc ssion. II was hoped that
Congress would be able TO adjourn by
| June Il. but the important questions
before this body this session have con-
sumed so much time that the date
has been tentatively postponed TO he
'f-st of July.

For several days II has become very
evident that the problem OF dealing
with people coming here, or claiming
TO come from San Francisco, and 20
be in need, will be one OF the most
difficult which has come up or will
confront the association. And IL is
one that will probably need TO be
dealt with for several months.
OF course the association aims 10
do all that is possible to help the de-
serving ones whom Massachusetts
should help. At the same time il is
aware that precautions must be taken
and investigation and discrimination
made that funds so needed shall not
be spent on undeserving people who

under false pretences and who may
never have seen California.

companies The latter having for
