Ownership Of women first inter-
feres with the power of selection so
essential to right motherhood and
second enforces motherhood undesir-
ed-a grave physiological evil. The
ensuant conditions of female seryi-
tude is an injury in demanding labor
incompatible with right maternity,
and in lowering the average Of hered-
ity through the arrest of social devel-
opment in the mother. 1t Is not good
for the race that majority of its
female parents should be unskilled
laborers, plus a few unskilled idlers.

Mrs. Gilman deprecated the effort
to revive the old fashioned Industries
of the home, and exhibited little in
terest In the replacement of ordinary
domestic arrangements with so-called
"co-operative housekeeping" Her
summary of the history of the present
day family from Its early beginnings
was vivid. "In its present form" she
said "it is an institution of confused
values based on vital necessity, but
heavily encumbered with rudiments
Of earlier stages of development, some
utterly mlschievous showing also the
thriving growth of new and admirable
features"
Her allusion to the general subject
.of domestic service in its various as
poets was striking.
'The house Is a place where the
man has his meals cooked and served
by the woman; his general cleaning
and mending done by her; she Is his
servant. This condition accompanies

cedes maternity. II has no relation

THE PROUDLY INDEPENDENT WOMAN
NECESSARY TO MAKE THE REAL HOME

Atlantic City, n. j., Dec. 2S.-The
American Sociological society con-
vened here today for session of sew
eral days. The meeting today was
preliminary to the active work of the
society
A remarkable address on How DO
Home Conditions React on the Fam
ily," was presented by Mrs. Charlotte
Perkins Gilman. She traced the bio
logical, sociological and economic his
tory of marriage, the home, the fam
lily and in the course of her remarks
made some rather unusual if not
startling statements relating to moth
erhood, the modern home, the serv-
ant question, and the relations Of
husband and wife. Here is one strik-
ing excerpt
The Industrial conditions of the
modern home are such as to delay
and often prevent marriage. Since
the home is supposed to arise only
from marriage, 1t looks as though the
situations were frankly suicidal. So
far, not seeing these things, we have
merely followed our world-Old habit
of Blaming the woman. She used to
be content with these conditions. we
say-she ought to be now-Oack to
nature. The woman refuses to go
back-the home refuses to go forward
and marriage waits. The initial
condition OF ownership, even without
servitude, reacts unfavorably upon
the kind of marriage most desired. A
woman slave is not a wife. The more
absolutely a woman is her own mis-
tress, in accepting her husband and
her life with him, the higher is the
grade of love and mpanionship
open to them. Again the economic
dependence of the woman initiates
against a true marriage, in that the
element of the economic profit de-
grades and commentaries love and
50 Injuries the family II may be said
that the family with the male head
cannot exist in a pure form without
its original concomitants Of absolute
personal ownership and exploitation
of woman. When the ownership is
no longer that of true slavery but
enters into the contract stage when
marriage becomes an economic rela-
tion then indeed It Is degraded. Poly
gyny is a low form OF marriage but
as modern polygamists have held It at
least tends to preclude prostitution.
The higher marriage toward which we
are tending requires a full-grown
woman no ones property or servant,
and proudly independ-
ent. Such marriage will ind express
sion in a very different home"
In the course OF her remarks about
the reaction Of modern home condi-
tions upon motherhood, Mrs. Gilman

STORE ROBBERS ARE
WANTED ELSEWHERE
They Broke Jail at ST. Louis While
Awaiting Trial for Robbing
Postoffice.

The two men arrested in San Ber-
nardino, Cal, on the charge of rob-
bing the store of Michael Bros, on
South Second street, and brought here
to stand trial, have been identified as
Otto Drake and Lee Kundig, two fed
eral prisoners who escaped from the
city prison at st. Louis, Mo-. while
awaiting trial for robbing a postoffice
at Ridgeville, Ill. When taken into
custody in California they gave two
other names and the discovery of
their identity came about in very
peculiar way.
one day last week a man giving
the name of John Grubb went into
the office of Sheriff Coddington. of
Gallup. and said that he wanted to
give himself up. He said that he was
cold and hungry and was tired of
being a fugitive from justice. He
told Sheriff Coddington that he was
wanted in Illinois for stealing a letter
out of a mail bag. He had been ar
rested and was in jail at st. Louis
awaiting trial, when some men who
were in with him broke jail and he
went with them.
Sheriff Coddington telegraphed Uni
ted States Marshal Foraker and the
marshals office had a poster sent out
by the department of Justice asking
authorities to look out for one j. ].
Grubb. On the same poster We're the
names and pictures Of Drake and
Kundig.
When Deputy United States Mar
shall James Smith was bringing Grubb
here for safe keeping, the latter told
him the story of the escape from the
st. Louis prison and said ne thought
Kundig and Drake were some place
in this part of the country. After
Grubb had described them, Smith de-
cided that the men arrested In Cali
fornia were Drake and Kundig. Mar
shal Foraker and Deputy Smith saw
the two men in the county jail this
morning and confronted them with
the poster, and they confessed.
They broke jail at st. Louis at 10
O'Clock on the morning OF November
19, in broad daylight, and left st.
Louis that night for the west. They
arrived here on Saturday evening, De-
.cember 5, on train No. /, ROBBED the
store OF Michael Bros, and left the
city on train No. before 1 o'clock
the morning of December 8.
Grubb will be taken back to ST.
Louis and turned over to the United
States authorities. Drake and Kun
dig, who are now the prisoners of the
local authorities, may be turned over
to the federal officers and taken back
to ST. Louis.

Rome, Dec. 2S.-Southern Italy
was visited by serious and fatal
earthquake this morning. The CEN
ter of the disturbance was in Sicily
and the greatest loss of life and prop
erty occurred on that island. Re
ports are as yet incomplete, and the
extent of the destruction is unknown
The people were everywhere
thrown into a state of panic. At Cat
lannissetta, a Sicilian town of $4,000
people, a number of houses were
shaken down and the Inhabitants fled
into the streets, congregated at street
corners and open places. Vast
crowds gathered in the parks and the
churches were filled. At Mineo,
small town southeast of Catania,
several houses collapsed and the
scene of panic was repeated. At
Catania the docks and shore front
were overwhelmed by a tidal wave.
Much damage was done to shipping,
but details are lacking.
AT Agosta two churches and sew
eral houses We're demolished but no
lives were lost. The prisoners in the
local Jail made their escape when the
building was damagd, and dashed TO
liberty through the praying crowds
in the streets.
Troops have been called out to re-
store quiet and everywhere the SOL
diers are engaged in the work of res
cue. Latest reports from Caiabria
say that three dead and sixty wound
ed have been removed from the ruins
at Stefanconi Sixty are said to be
injured at Sannofrio.

gigantic wave could be seen for some
distance and sharp cries of warning
rang out as the water came rolling
in. The people fed from the docks
and the water front of the town.
Wherever the sailors could go
ashore, vessels of all kinds were has

Every temple of the kNobles of the Mystic Shrine in the world will have its own column, surmounted with a huge white globe bearing the name of the temple during Shrines' Week in St. Paul in July.

LUMBER TRADE SHOWS
 SUBSTANTIAL REVIVAL
BY A. c. AYLEsWoRTH.

Hattiesburg Miss, June 6.-(Special.)- That the revival of the lumber manufae- turing trade is at hand is no longer a substantial reality. The wholesalers on this market are quite pleased over the volume of business that has been doing during the past two weeks, for though it is not up to the record of the palmy days cf 1907 it is distinctly in advance of any thing that has been known since the first of the current year. There have been two or three orders placed recently, ag- gregating 6,000000 or 7,000,000 feet, and in addition there have been a number of smaller orders that in the aggregate are making an impression on the operations Of the mills Down toward the coast there are reports of still larger orders being placed, amounting up to something like 25,000,000 feet, but these reports are not confirmed by anything that is known on this market.
 The revival of business is apparent in many different ways. The railroads are doing more business in the way of haul ing lumber, the mills are making inquiries fer hands and clerks. The secretary of the Mississippi Pine association, MT. Ewing A. Walker is now operating an employment bureau for the benefit of the mills of South Mississippi, and he has got his hands full supplying the demand. In- deed he has been compelled to contract for space in the local newspapers in which to advertise from day to day for the men he wants. In view of the prostration that has been characteristic of the business in the recent past this activity is astonlsh- ing it is gratifying.
 But this revival of business is not ac- companied by any rise in the market

price, nor is there any indication at pres ent that it will bring about resumption of operations by any considerable number of the mills that are closed down. The orders that have been placed so far are on a low scale, and there has been no ad- vance over the stagnation prices that have prevailed for the past few months. The mill men here have several explana- tions to offer for this phenomenon. They believe that conditions In the consuming centers are not such as to warrant the offer of higher prices, and the buyers are ready to withdraw their business rather than pay an advance in prices At tile same time the mills that are in operation are in some cases willing to accept these prices since they are at the expense of operating anyway and know that they must take the offered prices or nothing at all. Also it is pointed out that there are some accumulations of stocks at the mills which must be reduced considerably before the millmen will have the nerve to stand out for better figures.
 Under the present conditions of the market it Is predicted that the time will be but short before the buyers will be compelled to raise their quotations. The new demand Is not having the effect of increasing the production to any noticeable extent. None of the mills which have been shut down are thinking about re- opening. On the other hand there have been some mllls closed during the past week. among which may be mentioned the rather important plant of the Native Lur1- Der company at Howison, Miss There has heen talk of the Dantzler company of Moss Point reopening a number of their mills that have been idle, but there is no confirmation of the rumor and it Is dis credited here.
