FEARS FOR RACE OF WOMEN.
Prof. Ross Sees Feminine Graces
Eliminated by Trade Influences.

CHICAGO, March 7.-Unless factory and
America is threatened with the appear
ance of race of women like those Of the
peasant class of Russia. according to Prof.
Edward A. Ross of the University of Wis
consin. Prof. Ross made this assertion
during an. address before a public meet
Federation of Womens Clubs at Hull
House last night.
After quoting from statistics to show
that one-third of the women Of the coun-
try between the ages Of fifteen and TWEEN
ty-f1ve are engaged in industrial occupa-
tons. Prof. Ross said:
with many Of them it IS only tenn
porary, but do you realize that for the
few years they are at the loom or in the
shop the conditions surrounding them are
not shaped or Influenced by anybody who
has any interest in them?
The truly feminine girl. the one of
frailty and delicacy, will pass from our
working classes. There will be a rever-
sion to the type Of masculine women,
squat Nat ohested, broad backed. low
browed creatures, working In the fields
side by side with the men. the burdens of
wffehood and mothe rhood coming but as
an incident to day of toll.
THE cost of the cure. the prevention of
such a state. Is in the hands of society to-
day. The day when a man could sell
himself into slavery is in the past of all
civilized countries. A further interfer-
ence in the field of the so-called freedom
of contract cannot be considered bold.
The law can: tell a girl just how many
hours of her time she may SELL

RECEIPTS OF FISH.
Thirty-Seven Shad From Old Point
Constitute First Shipment.

Thirty-seven shad, the first received
here from Old Point this season, were
brought up on the Norfolk line steamer
yesterday, consigned to dealers at the fish
wharf and were put on sale in the Center
Market. The shad brought wholesale 81
each for roes and 80 cents each for bucks
and they were disposed of quickly. Shad
from Florida and the Carolinas have been
on sale for several weeks past, but the
supply is small. The appearance of the
fish in Chesapeake bay is taken an in
dication that the schools are moving up
the coast and that those being caught In
Hampton roads are the advance guard OF
the big run of fish loked for the latter
part of this month.
Herring made their appearance in the
lower Potomac about two weeks ago and
small quantities are being brought up by
the river steamers on almost every trip
The bulk of the herring on sale at this
time are from the Carolinas or the states
farther south. but it is expected the catch
in the Potomac will be largely increased
when the trap nets are out. AS yet the
fishermen who operate traps in the river
have not staked out their nets. but they
are preparing to do SO. and by the middle
of the month the river will be filled with
nets. Several Of the haul seine shores are
in operation and they are catching some
bunch fish and few herring, No shad
have been reported caught in the river.

Uncle Sam Watchful Of American
Interests in Central America

MEXICO CITY. March 7.-.There is
nothing in Secretary Roots remarks
which Indicate that the. United States
government has any intention whatever
of assuming an attitude hich would
In any degree threaten the sovereignty
or independence of the Central American
republics. was the comment last night
of Foreign Minister Marscal after reading
the official report of the session of the
House committee on foreign affairs during
which Secretary Root made a declaration
which caused great uneasiness to Central
American diplomats
The conditions are such that the
United States government vii. exercise a
special supervision over the Central
American states, which is demanded by
the extent of the interests which are held
In those countries by Americans and the
peculiar political situation in which they
have placed themselves. They will do this
to prevent any other nation from getting
control there. In this, Mexico Is wholly
disinterested except insofar as it affects
Guatemala.
I'm Guatemala. Mexico has both ma
terial and moral interests
The foreign minister further states that
the Mexican and American governments
have been in complete accord with respect
to the treatment Of the Central American
question. it being the desire of both gov
ernments TO see peaceable conditions in
that region

IN A YOKOHAMA THEATER.
The Plays Last All Day and Some
times Two Days.

The Plays Last All Day and Some
times Two Days.
Before leaving Yokohama l went to
the theater. which certainly was unlike
anything have ever seen before. We
sat on the door Of our so called box
and had tea like the crowd. And such
crowd 1t was an endless source of
interest and amusement to watch
them, whole families-mothers-in-law
and daughters-in-law, children of all
ages and parents of different genera
lions, fathers, sons and grandsons. All
had their dinners with them. Little
trays were produced-tiny boxes full
Of rice, bowls containing weird food
stuffs, pink, white and green; seaweed
on rice cakes, raw fish and nameless
yellow condiments, tea in microscopic
cups, of course, with no milk or sugar.
The Japanese cannot understand Eu-
ropeans putting milk in their tea as,
according to them, 1t has a strong
smell. The children were dressed and
undressed during the entr'actes, and
people smoked, slept, ate, talked and
famed themselves. 1t was certainly a
great contrast to see little "musme"
such as Pierre Lott describes, daintily
dressed in the gayest of kimonos and
smartest Of obs, sitting between a
cody wearing nothing but loose cot
ton jacket and an old bag nursing a
baby Although it was true that most
of the men had little on and the Their
mometer was So degrees, the atmos-
phere was not impossible, as l am
sure would have been the case in a
European theater under similar circum-
stances. The plays have usually four
teen or fifteen acts and last all day and
sometimes two. This particular one,
not having an actress such as Sadi
Yacco to interpret 1t, was quite unin-
telligible to me, but l admired the
grace of the actresses, their easy move
ments when dancing and the way they
managed their tight clothes. Imagine
my surprise when 1 found out after
ward that they were all men! Up to
few years ago men and women did
not act together in japan, the thea
trical companies being composed Of
either one sex or the other. But a
change has come over them, and there
are now mixed companies.-Re
cences of Lady Randolph Churchill In
Century.

junk DEALING a Great Industry.

But few of the thousands of peo-
pie who see an "old iron" man poking
through heap of rubbish realize that
the junk business in this country has
grown to sCupendous proportions. In
Philadelphia last year over $25,OO0,000
changed hands in dealing in old metal,
ranging from the trivial sums paid to
the men who search the alleys for
small discarded articles to the many
thousands of dollars paid for machin-
cry from dismantled factories.
The Pennsylvania railroad alone dis
poses of from 10000 to 10000 tons of
waste material a month to Philadel-
phia dealers. This is chiefly wornout
rolling stock and rails. The company
which controls the street railways of
that city disposes of almost an equal
amount, and hundreds of other indus
trial concerns add their quota.--Pop-
