INCARCERATION IN THE HOME.
Chicago Professor Sees Woman's g
Mental Cure Out of the House.

CHICAGO. March 1O.-No woman need
remain a mental lightweight In this age
of progress. She can cure herself of her
intellectual interiority by getting job,
forgetting romance and costly raiment,
mixing in politics and freeing herself
from incarceration in the home" ac-
cording to statements made by Prof w.
I. Thomas of the University of Chicago.
whose views concerning the ''adventi-
tious character of woman have been
widely disseminated.
Incarceration within the house is the
greatest curse that could overtake the
nervous system and mind of woman"
says Prof Thomas in communication
to woman's club.
From this standpoint our girls and
women are in a vicious psychological Sit
uation. vicious political Or ecclesi-
astical despotsm. Women are coming
more and more to rely less upon the will
of the men.
1T Is not SO much that the occupations
need. the women as that the women need
the occupations. Ordinarily the woman
abandons all intentions of entering an
occupation at the altar. Even In our
universities where women prepare for use
fulnesS they keep wavering eye on their
object when it comes to matrimonial as
pirationS.''

PLAINS CASE IS DISMISSED
DECISION WITHOUT PREJUDICE
BY JUSTICE GOULD.
Holds That Testimony Fails to Es-
tablish Negligence on Part Of
Trust Company.

Justice Gould of the District Supreme
Court has dismissed, without prejudice,
the complaint of the heirs of the late Ben
jamin X Plain against the Washington
Loan and Trust Company to compel
the trust company to account for and pay
to them $4,000 due on certain notes be-
longing to the Plain estate, which, it is
claimed. the trust company, as executor
and trustee, negligently failed to collect.
BENJAMIN X Plain in his lifetime held
a trust for 100000. on the interest of
Henry p. Waggaman, in the tract of land
called Woodley, and had borrowed $31, 600
from the trust company on the security of
the notes for s12O.OOO
The heirs claimed that the trust COM
pany was negligent in falling TO enforce
the lien on the property and in allowing
other membranes to be placed on 1t.
Among these later membranes was the
trust made to secure the Catholic Uni
versity ss16. 96, said to he due to it
from Thomas E. Waggaman. its treas
urer.
Justice Could holds that the testimony
of the heirs fails to establish that any
delay on the part of the trust company
I'm enforcing the security in Its hands as
trustee has up to this time resulted in
any loss to the heirs. "As matter of
idCI says tue SOon dlteI llc

1904. the defendant instituted suit to
force the security and to set aside the
trust given to the Catholic University
on the ground that il was given to secure
the individual debt of Thomas f. Wagga-
man, and this suit is still pending. In
my judgment it is necessary to await
the determination of that action before
the plaintiff will be entitled to relief In
this case or any other Of similar ma
ture."
The testimony offered by the trust COM
pany was that the Woodley tract is fully
ample to pay all the membranes on 1t.

pressed the situation closely in this
country, and it is said that seeming
hardness on the part of the clergy to
bring about the desired change has
been due to this.
1t is also known that Cardinal Glib
bons is 10th to do away with women

especially in a country like this where
there is little male talent to be relied
on.
Few of the choir leaders or direc-
tors were willing to express themselves.
as they say they wait for the action of
the clergy. Most of them secuted the
idea of doing away with women in the
choirs. declaring that it would be i'm
possible to replace them and that it
would take years of patient and ex-
pensive work to introduce boy choirs.
AT present there is no church in Bal
timore which has adopted the new rul-
ing, simply because the pastors nave
not been pressed to do so and because
it is realized that it is hardly possible
at present.
1t was first rumored that the paid
women choir singers would be allowed
to serve out this years contract but
that they would not be renewed. AS
in most churches the singers make a
monthly contract, this, it is said, would
not stand in the question.

WOMEN IN CATHOLIC CHOIRS
CHURCH FINDS IT DIFFICULT TO
ENFORCE ORDER.
Pope's Decree to Have Been Effective
April 1-Conditions Differ
From Those Abroad

Notwithstanding the recent decree
which the pope sent out to the entire
Catholic Church in regard to the sing
ing of women in church choirs, and
which was intended to go into effect
by the first of April in this country.
it is more than likely that no action
will be taken for awhile on the ques-
ton in this archdiocese
A few of the churches in this city
have already made the best of the de-
cree of the pope, known as the "Motu
prOpriO," but in Baltimore 1t is re-
garded as impracticable.
In the first place, there are few. if
any, boys who are willing or capable
of being trained for tenor parts. where
it is intended that they be substituted
for women. Moreover, it is said that
few, il any, of the church pastors are
able to bear the expense of having sucn
boys trained for the choirs and that
few boys in this country are willing
that their talent and time be entirely
devoted to choir work.
AS several pastors said, conditions
here and abroad are so radically differ
ent and custom plays so important IL
part. that it will he extremely difficult
for the American archdiOceses to com
ply with the pope's wishes.
