The director OF the census was
&ctless enough to make the state
ment that housewives we're not, never
had been and never could be regarded
as being employed. He might have
known what would happen. He might,
at least. nave surmised that he would
stir up thinking women and that some
brainy bit Of femininity would take
up the cudgels In defense of this por-
ton Of her sex and knock his decis
ion iato q cooked hat And that is
exactly what has happened for Mrs.
Charles E. Merriam, wife Of the Re-
publican candidate for mayor OF Chi
cago, has replied in this very con-
elusive fashion;
"A woman with intelligence amt

visited by people from other lands
long before the days Of the intrepid
lGonoese explorer. Chinese history
makes the same claim and there ls no
reason TO dispute the authenticity ot
this authority, for, as far al com pc
ascertained, the Chinese had d fash

fore their Caucasian brethren ever

learned how TO do 1t. SO as far as
this sort OF thing goes, the profes-

sensation.
But, no matter what Professor Wig
Maud may discover or say, or how
much scientific research he may re-
veal to prove that the Vikings landed
or American soil long before Colunf
bus did, the glory of the discovery
of the Western continent will always
belong to Columbus. His discovery
amounted to something; II resulted

character has seldom been seen.
No performance OF the part is inn
pressive that does not inspire sym
pathy, and an actor must possess pc
culiar aud exceptional magnetism in
order to inspire sympathy with a
man who receives irto his home a
friend and benefactor, steals 10 his

st. Paul, Aug. Am unusual ro-
nance has eliminated in the marriage
of Miss Grace Moody, daughter of Mrs.

ton attended the bridal couple.
Several days ago. when the bride
and her mother were enjoying a west

brother, whom Miss Moody and her
mother were visiting. sent a joke tole-
gram TO another brother, c. A. Mood3.
in Nashua, Iowa, telling that Miss
Moody and Mr.. Scott had been married
last Wednesday in Minneapolis. c. A.
Moody took the telegram seriously,
with the result that the story Of the

pers and was copied by the Waterloo
papers and several others.
When Miss Moody and her mother
returned from the west to Minneapolis
they learned of the publication OF the
story of the marriage ard the couple

married and the ceremony was the re :
suit The bride received $4,000 as Ii
