This reply created considerable
merriment, and the irate southerner
considering the humorous rejoinder
an insult, sent challenge to Judge
Thacher, who promptly declined it.
The bearer rather astonished, asked
will you be branded as coward ?"
Certainly, if he pleases," replied
Thacher. Il always was one, and he
knew it, or he would never have
risked challenge"
The affair caused much mirth, but
was finally adjusted, cordial relations
being restored, the irritable southern
er concluding that there was nothing
to be gained in fighting one who fired
nothing but jokes.

vantage to have the kitchen shut away
from the main part of the house where
it is cool in summer. When the porch
is used as a sort of kitchen annex, as
it probably would be by most house
keepers, the arrangement is especially
attractive.
The water supply in all houses that

One reason why life in small places

Here are some statistics of the
Womens university in st. Petersburg,
one of the many in Russia-for there
are similar universities in nearly all
the larger cities, Moscow, Kiev, Odes-
sa, Kharkov and others:
In 1900 there were 883 women
graduates from the St. Petersburg
Women's university. Recently there
were more than 993 students; 678
were in the history or philology class
es, 315 were taking the physics
mathematics course. The classes
represented in this nunABer of about
1000 women were 900 daughters of
mobiles and government employees, 46
priests daughters, 1872 of the bour-
geoisie, % peasant girls and Is wives
Of students. Of this number 2 were
French, 1 German, 10 Bulgarians, 2
Americans, 2 Austrians, 1 English, 2
Prussians.
According to religious denomina-
lions it is interesting to note that
89S were orthodox Greek, 80 Luther
ans, 10 Catholics, Reform Church
of England, Z Armenian Greeks, l
Karaim Jew and 80 Jews.
Of what became of these women
graduates of 1900 it was stated re-
Gently that rs were still pursuing
their scientific work, there were 30
teachers, one was in the meteorolog-
ical observatory, two were in gov
eminent laboratories, two were fol-
lowing literary careers, one in a
railway office, one in library, and
20 lived at home with their parents.
OF the rest no record has been kept.
In the orthodox church there are
no women priests, and there are no
law schools for women in Russia.
Looking at the question closely,
the American woman's opportunity
reaches farther, embracing as it does
all occupations and trades. The key
note of the Russian woman's infiu-
ence and power seems to me to be
expressed in these words of Ruskin,
in speaking of the true quality of
the sexes 1.-THE happiness and per-
| lection of both depends on each ask

1t was through the energy and in
f1uence of the few that the education
of women in the broad sense was be-
gun. The strides in educational ia
cilities in Russia may be understood
by few statistics given in an inter-
teresting paper recently read by Nine
BarteVna, on the education of wom-
en- in Russia. She gets her data
principally from a work entitled
Material About Womens Education
in Russia by Nine E. o. Lerhachef,
which work received honorable men
ton from the imperial academy.
The paper begins with the popular
movement toward the education Of
women in 1850 to 1860, stimulated by
Grand Duchess Helena Pavlovna
first woman's gymnase was founded
at Kostrofna. Before this there were
schools called NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. still
existing of higher order, where the
daughters of families of certain por-
ton are educated for a very small
sum, the highest price being 400
rubles, or 200 American dollars, a
year, including board.
The oldest and most aristocratic Of
these institutions in St. Petersburg
was founded by Catherine the Great.
Thus an extremely thorough educa-
ton has been given vast numbers OF
Russian women of the upper classes
for more than century.
In 1859 followed the opening of
the first free school for women by
an engineer, Koscinsky, and in 1859
what were called Sunday schools for
girls of the poorer classes who had
no other leisure, were founded by
Nine. Schpiegelsky.
Very soon followed the opening OF
public schools in certain villages for
the coeducation of peasant boys and
girls after the liberation of the serfs.
The percentage of girls sent to these
schools was 1 to 800. At present there
are more than LOST, 430 girls in these
public schools. In st. Petersburg
alone there are eight high schools for
girls.
