woMAN's DAY COMING

Tomorrow"
 Ill the course of his lecture he made tla claim that "tEe time will come when We W ill be ashamed to show our faces in heaven at the age of 100 years on ac- count of our extreme youth"
 He also said that the women are get ting the most of the education of to-day, and that if the men continue to go into business and get their recreation in the evening by driving little ball about a table with cue, while the women fol low intellectual pursuits, the latter will be the only educated persons in the country.
 But his queerest statement was that, Gin one thousand years the women will own all the property, and when a man wants fifty cents to buy a Christmas present, he is likely to be asked by his wife what he did with the last fifty who read this latter paragraph will con graduate themselves that they are just one thousand years ahead of time. The current number of tho Boston Medical and Surgical Journal describes new treatment for pneumonia, which is being tried by the Tufts Medical School. The treatment is by the injec- 1 tion of vaccine derived from the germs of the disease itself. which is rendered harmless to the patient before being used in the treatment of the disease. The vaccine was tried on alcoholic and unpromising cases, with gCoi results; the deaths being only six out of thirty i four cases treated, mortality of IF per cent. In forty mine ordinary cases there were only two deaths, and 15 per cent. of these forty nine cases came to crisis in three days, whereas it is usually reached in nine days. The total deaths in eighty-three cases treated with the 1 vaccine injections numbered eight, or ! 97 per cent. While no definite conclu- sions can be drawn from such a limited trial, there seems to be good grounds for belie> ing that this treatment is to be the means of reducing the hitherto l large mortality from this disease.
 The Bacon Shakespeare controversy is OH again. A party of Americans have gone to England to follow up a cipher olue to the lost Bacon library and man. uscripts. Monday they were at St. Al bans, where two of Bacon's residences were. The cipher makes it plain to these searchers that Queen Elizabeth in- stead of being single woman, was mar her sons. It may be of great interest to some people to follow up these mysteri- Ous clues, but it's good bet that all it will come to, if anything, will be long ties and those who will pin their faith to our old friend William.
 The plan formulated early last week to place Charles s. Mellen ill Lucius Tuttle's place as president of the Boston and Maine railroad has apparently been abandoned. When the time came for action, it was questioned if it would be wise or good policy for the New Haven road to disclose its purposes in the north ern New England field. Had Mellen been elected, it was thought it would strengthen the position of the radicals in the Massachusetts legislature, who object to the whole holding bill pro gramme, claiming that it is only very thinly disguised merger project.
 Burton Ellsworth, of Wyalusing, Pa, can lay claim to being the unluckiest man in that state, or perhaps any state in the Union. Last Saturday he was taken to the hospital suffering from compound fracture of his right leg. This is the third time he has fractured leg twice hs has had fractured arm twice broken q cOllarbone; once had two ribs broken and in addition has had finger shot off ill guning accident. If that man keeps on with his antics he will be getting hurt some day.
 How would you like to own some stock in the J. P Goats Company, other wise known as the thread trust? They announce profits of $l4, ,509. 330 for the fiscal year ending November 1. These profits will enable them to pay bonus of 24 cents per share, in addition to the regultr quartarly dividend, which is usually 30 per cent. As profitable in- yestmcnt this comes nearest to owning country weekly newspaper of anything of which we have yet heard.
 Criticism of the action of the judge who granted the Astor divorce ease with such secrecy, still continues. While the public is not, as a rule, anxious to read the vulgar details of such cases, if they are suppressed out of regard for the feelings, social position or wealth of the
