SOME PLAIN TALK.
TOO MUCH VICE, WRECKS, SUI.
crDRs AND MURDER FOR HER.
Mrs. Gabrielle 8. Mulliner Indulges
Gives Her Views; Of Things at
Woman's Meeting.

| The New York World says before
seyenty-five women Mrs. Mulliner
read a long paper In which she dis
cuesed the menace to society Of wo-
men OF the half world. unfaithful
husbands and divorces. She ciassed
the city of New York as one huge
receptacle Of everything eoul under
the sun.
.There is more vice per capita IN
New York." said Mrs. Mulliner,
"than In any other city Of the world.
There are more wrecks, more sui
ctdes, more illiteracy. more accidents
upon the public highways, more
thefts, more murders, more deprav-
ity, more misery and distress. And
the woman who surveys 1t all and
understands it all and wants to bet
ter 1t all is beginning to make or
herself true suffragist."
Mrs. Mulliner said the old Puritan
standards that had inspired the writ
ing of "The Scarlet Letter" had been
mashed fat. Women, she said, were
looking upon the breeders OF evil
feminine home wreckers and the like
with pity and patience instead or
working for legislation that should
punish the woman who enters q home
and steals husband as it Furnishes
the thief who breaks In and carries
of the silver. ~
"There is such thing as the un-
written law" went on the woman
lawyer, "and the written law often
countenances 1t II, upon the spur of
the occasion, husband kills the man
he. finds with his wife. Why should
1t not be just as much the recognized
right Of the wife to kill the woman
who steals her husband? That thief
is not stealing alone from the family;
she is stealing from the social well
fare and that of the soul in futurity.
Hers is a marvellously wicked crime.
"It is the woman whom the law
allows to walk the streets and openly
attract men by her bedizement that
Is the criminal at the base OF New
York's degeneracy, and at the, base
Of the evil In all cities. She Is the
community wife. And the decent wo-
men are not helping conditions Dy
lping her in the mater OF the hobble
skirt, the mob hat and the paint and
cosmetic. But even the demi-mon-
.Iaine and the woman who tolerates
ser existence are not the ones to
hfante. 1t IS the law itself and the
rottenness in politics that sees the
hing calmly through that is to
blame. Good women shonld work
% become elective constituents Of
right-minded men upon the Board Of
Aldermen and in other positions sig
nifcant to the pubic good.
Raise the standard by setting a
value on chastity! Make an infringe
rent Of that standard punishable by
law"
Mrs. Mulliner next presented her
pet topic, divorce. Every core
spondent ought 70 be impounded in
the penitentiary for certain term, "
she asserted. "Such an offender
agains. the public good Is criminal
Of tee worst type"
Every women at the meeting
pledged herself to keep a close watch
On her own drawing room and to do
her part in the proposed purging Of
society. .
