Women and Smoke.

A young Chicago woman aspires to
ee a smoke inspector. She says the
smoke nuisance is serious, and she
does not see why women should not
be useful in checking it. The pay
does not attract her, but the oppor-
tunity to do good. If she can pass a
civil service examination, and there is
no reason TO doubt her ability, there
will be no legal obstacle in the way OF
her appointment. The average WON
an as smoke inspector would put into
her work a degree of devotion and
zeal which man is incapable of, says
the Chicago Tribune. Where men dis
like smoke, women hate it. 1t dirties
their clothes. 1t smuts their faces.
1t nullifies the labor of the washer
woman. 1t is abhorrent to them in
a hundred different ways. An inspec-
tor of any kind who is not full of en-
thusiasm for his work, and who goes
on with it merely to draw his month
ly pay, never accomplishes much. 1t
is because women have enthusiasm
that they make the best kind of in
spectors in certain fields of labor.
They are able to see shortcomings to
which the average man is blind.

Electricity as a Deadener.

It would be a foolish man who
should run on ahead of present devel-
opment in electricity and plant a
stake to mark the limit of its growth.
Before he had swung his maui score
of times, progress would have passed
him and he would be erecting sign
post instead of barrier. Electricity
spurts in this seven-league boots way
because so many minds are interest
ed in it. The men of brains, whatever
their calling, recognize its potentiali-
ties and work toward them. 1t is
used in commerce and manufactures
quite as much as in science. Domes-
tic life claims it as powerful and
willing slave, il aids the arts in many
ways, and medicine has found good
in it. DR.. Stephen Leduc, leading
physician of Paris, has whitfield down
the destructive properties of electro
cution to beneficent powers. He has
made the death-chair over into an
operating table for the surgeon. He
destroys sensibility all over the body
by sending mild alternating current
of electricity through the brain. In
this way the patient loses conscious
ness but it is not the old stupor OF
anesthetics. There is no nausea. Ian
guor or weakness and absolutely no
effect on the heart. The patient be-
comes conscious the moment the cur
rent is shut off and with a decidedly
invigorated sensation. This will be as
great boon to the doctors as to the
patient, says the Cleveland Leader.
1t will, or at least should, do away
with the sid apologetic remark that
the operation was a success but the
patient didn't rally" as if the mere
technical part of carving man up
with butcher-like skill was the end Of
the surgeons duty.

A dozen of more womens colleges
including Barnard, Wellesley, Vassar
and Bryn Mawr, have formed an inter-
collegiate association of students
whose purpose it is to establish
student government instead of facul.
ty control in all the institutions repre-
sented. Barnard is already practicing
this system and students have almost
everything under their own charge ex.
cept instruction. The plan is said to
be great success, the girls being
more observant of rules and regula.
tions made by the faculty. And yet
conservative folk will continue to feel
some preference for the old plan Of
putting experienced and mature per.
sons in authority over these young
women.

Whales are considerably in evidence
of late. A number have been caught
off the Long Island coast, and now
comes announcement of the finding Of
one, of the sperm variety, on the
Sandy shore of Florida. In the latter
case the cetacean has produced many
barrels of oil, and the ambergris con-
tained in the carcass will bring a
small fortune to the finders. A few
more experiences like this may lead
to marked revival in the whale hunt

Funeral March Ends In Death.

Spartanburg, June 1.-While following
corpse to its last resting place in a
cemetery across Tiger river, near
Moore's station, this county, four me-
groes met death by drowning, caused by
the bridge across tho stream giving way
just as the wagon in which they were
riding reached the middle span of the
bridge.
The body of Ross Lanford, negro,
which was being borne to the cemetery
In one-horse wagon, had just passed
over the bridge. Following the corpse
were fourteen mourners in one wagon,
drawn by two mules, and just as the
team with the funeral party reached
the middle of the bridge, the section
gave way and the team, and wagon ocou.
pants were precipitated into the stream,
about fifteen feet below. The river was
considerably swollen from the recent
heavy rains and the wagon foated down
the stream. The widest excitement
prevailed and the party were utterly
unable to control themselves. Three
women and baby were drowned. One
of the mules was rescued.
The bridge, it is said, was rotten and
badly in need of repairs. The mules
first went down, the bridge giving way
under the weight of the mules.
