s15,ooo NECESSARY
To Pay Claims Against International Oil Engine Company and Retain ln- dustry.

Unless some person or persors can be found to take up the mortgage hel1 by local men on the property of the Int natl ,ral oil Engine coInpan' thcre is little possibility of the firm resuming business at Industrial place. A new company has been formed under the i.ame of the American oil Engine eom- paDy and 1t is understood that they are ready to do business in Danielson If the previous arrangement of carrying the mortgage could be continued. c. B. Wheatley of Danielson. one of the mort gagees. and the purchaser on Sat- urday of the equity in the building. is willing to dispose of his claims on the property 10 the American oil Engine company, or other persons who may desire to assume the mortgage, but does not desire to carry 1t any longer under the old arrangement. Therefore unless the engine company can raise the $15,0n0 necessary to redeem the mortgage held by c. B. Wheatley and F. A. Jacobs the industry will be lost to Danielson.

Progress OF Women.

There is no question that the up
rising of women, which is more or
less active in all parts of the world,
has grown out of the gradual but
steady decline of the men. Within
the last four centuries of the worlds
history, alcoholic liquors, tobacco
and all the enervating and narcotic
drugs, with the single exception of
opium, have come into general
knowledge and use, and, as con-
sequence. because they are chiefly
used by men there has been a grow
ing enervation and degeneracy OF
the men, who are falling more and
more under the contempt of the
women.
Men were made physically strong
er in order that they may support
and protect the women and chill
dren. Women, by the facts of her
constitution and existence, is neces-
sarily the keeper of the home and
is most properly dependent upon
the man. But when she sees in too
many instances that the husband and
father is a miserable drunkard and
the sons and brothers wretched loaf
ers there is no wonder that she feels
there is something wrong in the So
cial organization.
1t is a mis- AXE to claim that the
women are naturally all good and
pure, and that where they are other
wise they are made so by the men.
Descended as not a few are directly
from depraved and degenerate men
it would be strange if there were not
women who had inherited the evil
qualities Of their fathers, and it is
a grievous fact that this is the case
Moreover, women are largely affected
by environment, and born as are
some amid scenes of misery and vice
and kept among such surroundings,
how can it be possible that all could
or should be pure and good?-New
Orleans Picayune.
