the towels Is too much for some women and without really being willing to acknowledge their defeat they submit to what they call the Inevitable Ten years ago it is said certain prices were paid for servants which are now dou- pleo and because Mrs. A. or Mrs. B up the street pays a little more there Is strike. There are rumors of serv- ants unions and of the "mysterious oath" which binds the members to work under certain conditions or be disgraced in the eyes of their society where purple aprons and shoulder capes add dignity to their membership. A cer- tainty of some day being buried in style keeps the members of these so- cieties in strict observance of the rules laid down. Gradually year by year wages are being increased for the sim pie reason that rich Mrs. A. pays her cook $2 a week more than poor Mrs. B. and Mrs. B. must either move out of the neighborhood, accede to. the de- mands or suffer the consequences. The whole trouble may be laid at the feet of the woman who is rich enough to be careless and eXtravagant and too indul- gent to the detriment of her neighbor who must look more carefully after tba expenditure of her husbands modest salary.
 There have been unions and unions but where are the women brave enough to band together and organize pand to regulate the salaries of servants. their hours and their con- duct? Such thing, If properly sup ported, would be a boon to mankind Tor after all the man suffers some thing of the horrors of the servant problem. He it is who must hear the incidents of the day and of the strug- gles of the wife with her maidin their domestic relations. He it Is who must eat dried-up roast, indifferent biscuit and water soaked potatoes, because the cook has the bouts or is no good or his inexperienced wife has had to retire to the kitchen after a disagreeable scene with the maid. Why cannot the women, asks a housekeeper here, band together for some protection for them selves? Such a thing cannot be as

CONGRESS-.
Senate Summary.

Washington, Feb. 23.--Although the Senate devoted four hours to legislative matter today, nothing was accomplish ed except speechmaking.
 The agricultural bill received further criticism. It is proposed that a million dollars be added to the fund at the disposal of the forestry service to make up for revenues taken away from 1t an dturned into the treasury. While this amendment probably is to be &C., cepted, Senator Hepburn will not per init it to receive final action until he has exhausted every legitimate means of opposition. This amendment fur nished ths text of the talk today, but no action was taken.
 Senator Aldrich prevailed on Senator Proctor to lay the agricultural Dill aside shortly before 2 o'clock that he might call up his currency bill. This was done but in the hour that remain ed before the special order for eulo- 6ies was reached, nothing was accomP- lished beyond an explanation or ms proposed amendment to the measure by Senator Nelson and an explanation uf the purposes of the bill by MT. Aldrich. The time after ' o'clock was devoted to eulogies on the lives of the late Senator Alger of Michigan and Repre- sentative Hit of Illinois, Hoar Of Mas sachusetts and Lester of Georgia.
 Senators Burrows, Daniel, Warren. Deliver. Foraker, Warner, Dick, spoon CT and Smith addressed the Senate on the resolutions regarding MT. Alger. Each of the speakers took occasion to refer in terms of justification to the record of the late Senator in his ad- ministration of the War Department during the Spanish American war.
