RAKE IOWA
FOR SERVANTS

~ - EHFE 70
Spokane, Wash, Feb. Slack OF
competent servant girls In Spokane has
resulted in the calling of a mass meet
ing in Masonic temple for the evening
Of February 9, when it Is expected to
work out a plan to bring young women
from New England, middle western
and southern cities to supply the de-.
mand, OF establish a free training
school for the education of immigrants.
Ten of the most prominent nm in
the city are at the head of the move
hment. Rem H. Rice, secretary of the
$50. 900 club" says:
1T is not overestimating h figures
to say that $500 servan girls a find
immediate employment in Spokane
m Spokane women are paying top
prices for competent domestics. Girls
demand from $35 to $40 a month and
get it, yet the quality of help is far be-
low the average. In many instances
these women have. taken into their
homes girls absolutely unused to house
work and taught them the rudiments,
and when they get them started the
girls leave for better positions or get
married"
A delegation of matrons will be sent
to Missouri, Minnesota, Wisconsin.
Michigan, Nebraska, lowe and several
centers in New York, Ohio and Massa-5
chusetts to engage help. The women
will be paid about $40 a month, with
the understanding they remain in SER
vice at least six months.

CHINESE REVOLT
COVERS EMPIRE

Pekin, Feb. Central China is be-
coming a serious menace to the whole
empire. A junction between the rebels
of Human and Kwangtung threatens to
result in more formidable rebellion.
The rebels hold all the mountain fast
nesses on the borders of Human Kiangsi
and all attempts of imperial troops to
dislodge them have failed.
The authorities at Shanghai are
adopting vigorous measures to check
the import Of arms and ammunition.
Agents of the revolutionists have sent
to the United States and to Europe to
purchase war material, and a collision
has been found to exist among the
agents, rebels and traders to import
arms under the guise of trade goods.
To date 10000 imperial troops with
cavalry n artillery have been sent
against the rebels, but have failed to
achieve anything.
Advices from foreigners who visited
the district say it is doubtful whether
the revolution can be suppressed should
all the troops at the disposition Of the
government be sent.
The leader of the revolutionists is
Kung Chuntai, and placards issued by
him state that the rebellion is aimed
at the overthrow of the Manchu
dynasty.
Signs of unrest are reported from
many places in hin

SENATE COMMITTEE
HEARS NEGRO SOLDIERS

Washington, d. c., Feb. 5.-The in
Eestigation Of the senate committee on
military affairs of the Brownsville.
Tex. affray began yesterday. AZ score
|bf the & soldiers of the Twenty
fifth infantry who We're discharged
without honor were present. but only
a limited number We're permitted to sit
in the committee Don during the pro-
Eceedings.
Attorneys were barred, the negro
soldiers having no representatives pres
ent.
1t is understood that Senator For
aker will look after the interests of the
men IL they are placed in jeopardy.
Senator Foraker called former Ser
geant Israel Harris to the stand. Re
garding the happenings on August Is
and IA he said:
ION that night we had some dis
turbance-some shooting I mea / was
asleep in d barracks and at about IL
o'clock T was aroused by the noise of
guns. Then there was h sound to
arms and Company D got dressed n
we started for u guns"
The witness told OF getting the guns
in the dark after the racks had been
opened. He described the racks and
showed that there was but one key to
a rack and that that key would UNI
lock only one rack, and hat the keys
were in the possession of noncommis-
stoned officers. The witness said when
the company formed outside Captain
LYONS, OF Company d, was present and
Immediately called the roll and person
ally counted his men and found that
none was absent.
Calling for the guns furnished to
the committee by the war department
Senator Foraker had u identi-
fled by the witness as a new model
Springfield rifle and another as the
Krag-Jorgenson rifle. The former was
in use by Company D, but the witness
was familiar with the Krag-Jorgenson.
He testified that a gun cannot be
cleaned to pass inspection without q
regulation rod, and that only foul
such rods are provided for each COM
pany.
He said that one shot would put
the gun In condition to require almost
as much cleaning as six or more shots,
his Inference being that 1t would have
been impossible for any guns Of Com
pany D to have been used in the
shooting up" of Brownsville and to
have been cleaned surreptitiously so
as to pass inspection when the racks
were unlocked and the guns inspected
the next day.
Senator Warner developed the fact
that trouble had previously occurred
! between the negro troops and people
in Texas and that Harris, when he
bers of his company might be in
volved. Harris stated that he had
talked with the soldiers who had
claimed to have bee insulted and
pushed off the sidewalks by Browns
vile citizens and he thought trouble
might enSue in consequence thereof.
Harris said it would have been I'M
possible for the men to have cleaned
their guns between lifetime of the
shooting n roll call.

editor of a medical journal, who has
asked the professors opinion concern
ing the fitness of women for the med

II am decidedly against women en-
neither the physical nor the mental at
tributes necessary for such arduous
work as ours.
So long as women are unable to peat
cooks and tailors at their own voca-
lions, which women are disposed to re-
gard as their own s%pecialties, so long
they will be unable to compete success
fully with men doctors.
