Couldn't Climb II.

TACOMA, Wash, July ga dis
patch from Fairbanks, ALASKA, receiv-
ed here says that Belmore Browne, OF
this city. and Prof. Herschell Parker
of Columbia University, are on their
Way home after having climbed to
within 46o feet of the summit Of Mount
Mckinley. Two attempts were made
to reach the top of the mountain, ac-
cording to the dispatch, but the high
est altitude reached was 10000 feet on
the north peak and about $4,000 feet
or the south peak.
Professor Parker and Browne have
made three expeditions with the sum
nit of the mountain as their goal. The
possibility OF DR.. Frederick A. Cook
having reached the top of the highest
mountain in North America, was doubt
ed by Professor Parker and he at
tempted to disprove what DR.. Cook
wrote in his book upon his successful
climb.

WASHINGTON, July 25.-Miss NJ.
Y. Kelly, the highest paid woman en-
ploye in the government service, who

her belief that the Chicago coroners
jury erred In taking the attitude that
a woman couldn't do a mans work.
Il don't think the coroner's jury was

the blame somewhere and they picked
out woman. The particular woman

ed in cases where lives depend upon
them. There is no position which re-
quires more nerve and courage than
that of hospital nurse--and the best
of these are women.
Il would feel just as safe on an
ocean liner that had woman wireless
operator as on one operated by men.
Il think there are just as many
women who could make good as men.
The only trouble is that men are not
able to size up women OF ability. They
can't pick them out for their brain

because their personal appearance
makes favorable impression"
As Capable as Men.
DENVER. Colo, July 25.-That
women are fully as capable as men of
holding positions of responsibility if
not, in fact, more capable, was the
indignant statement Of Mrs. Helen NJ.
Wixon, Colorado superintendent of
public instruction, when her attention
was called to the action Of the Illinois
coroner's jury In criticising the Bur
lingtcn railroad for employing women
as tower operators.
1t is nonsense to say women
haven't as great a sense OF responsible
ity as men and the attitude of the
coroner's jury in the case OF the Bur
lington wreck Is most unfair she
said. That tower operator assumed
the responsibility for her place when
she took that place and l have no
doubt she did her work as well as any
man could.
AS for congress passing law pre-
venting women holding places as
wireless operators on ocean steamers
because they are not responsible
enough, it Is absurd. As matter OF
fact, believe women are more re
sponsible and more conscientious in
their work than men"
