FRESHMAN PRAISES
 JOHN E. REDMOND

NEW YoRK.-Capt. stephen Nc, Farland chairman of the Irish volun- teer fund, in speaking of the success of home rule for Ireland said:
 Let those who want to quarrel with the final arrangement do so. No liv- ing man could have accomplished more for his people than has John E. Red mond. The United States Irish League is with him to q man today. And 1t has faith in the democracy of Great Britain, which, feel will see that ey- cry item of this solemn contract shall be carried out and the opening of the Irish Parliament not prolonged beyond the bounds of reason. Our work, as far as the League is concerned, is now almost at on end It is but right that we should pause for a moment and reflect. And the mind of the American public should be refreshed with this thought-that American citi. zens of Irish birth supporting the home rule movement have never had but one thing in mind-the restoration of self.goyernment for those of the Irish who are to stay at home"

DRIFT OF WoMEN'S
 EMPLOYMENT

Census figures relating to women's occupations in New York City throw an interesting light on the drift of female labor in the last ten years.
 Thus, while the number of actors in the greater city declined from 4,733 to 4,2O7 between 1900 and 1910, the nlmber of actresses rose from 2,629 to 3,759. The number of women bar bers, hairdressers, and manicures in- creased from S52 to S,S46; the number of bookkeepers, cashiers and account ants from S,291 to 21,61S; telegraph and telephone operators from 2,4O6 to 1862; milliners from 7,651 to 12,096; laundresses from 16,1O2 to 17,S2S, and cigar and tobacco factory operatives from 6,427 to S,751. The number of women musicians and music teachers rose from 3,S21 to 5,SO4, and women stenographers and typewriters show the remarkable increase from 10,S6S

CHURCHILL SAYS
 SEA IS CLEAR

LONDON, Oct. g. - First Lord of the Admiralty Winston Churchill, in speaking of the naval situation said;
 "A great battle on the sea has not yet been fought, but we enjoy as great command of the sea and as free a use of our sea power as we should have after a decisive engagement. What is there, for instance, that we could do then that we are not doing now?
 German trade has ceased. Ger man supplies lave been largely stran' gled. Our trade in all essentials is going on uninterruptedly. Materials of industry and food of the people are entering the country daily in vast quantities, at commercial prices. We are moving scores of thousands of men across the oceans of the world. Our submarines are blockadlng the very throat of the Elbe.
 "We started with @ substantial na' val preponderance. much more like ? to l than 16 to 10. In the next few months we shall have twice as many battleships completed, and three or four times as many cruisers as Ger many. If the losses were even equal, our position this time next year would be far stronger than 1t is today. You must remember that none of the ships built in my tenure of office, except the small cruiser Trethusia, has been commissioned yet.
 These are the most powerful and most expensive ships that have ever been built. They>aro the fruits of the greatest naval effort England has ev- CT made"

SUBMARINE HEROES GIVEN
 IRON CROSS BY EMPEROR

BERLIN, Oct. 9.--(By wireless via Sayville.) )-For sinking the British cruisers Aboukir, Hogue, and Cressy Lieut.. Commander Weddington and the members of the crew of the subma rine U.9 of the German navy have re ceived iron crosses.
 The submarine, 1t was added, es' capped undamaged.
 The admiralty also made public the information that the British cruiser Pathfinder, which was sunk earlier in the war was not blown up by a mine as the British declared and perhaps believed, but was torpedoed by the German submarine U-21.

PRESIDENT WOODROW WILSON who saved Alaska

said Mrs. Despard. He loved it when he was boy and battles and preach ing are his only hobbies. Napoleon was and is still his hero. I mean Ma poleon, the soldiers, not Napoleon, the politician. Indeed, he holds very sin cerely that a soldier should stick by his sword. This is one of his first axioms in life.
 "In one curious way my brothers Napoleon cult has been unexpectedly useful to him. In pursuing his hero worship he has traced every hillock and hedgerow of the country where he is now fighting. He knew the Belgian theatre of war through the Waterloo campaign by heart before he ever landed. War is the game the General has spent his life in learning and he is happiest in being war rior."

SPECIAL PREPARATION
 FOR INDIAN TROOPS

LONDON, Oct. 9.-Preparations are being made by the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, a hospital association to provide for the special needs of the Indian troops which, Lord Kitchener has announced, are on their way to the front.
 Transferred suddenly to a climate to which they are not used, and fight ing in territory whose population is unacquainted with their habits, they will naturally be at some disadvantag- es, hence the plan to aid them. A list of articles required for them will soon be published
 These articles will include carda- mon, cloves, cinnamon, sugar, candy, candied cocoanut, tooacco, cigarettes and betel. An Indian on going to rest requires, first, long muffler with which to envelop his head and neck. With this on he does not seem to feel the cold in his body although of course vests and warm underwear are need ed.
 Betel is a sort Of substitute for chew

BOER EXPERIENCE
 HELPS ENGLISH

LONDON, Oct. 9.-A correspondent of the Chronicle telegraphs:
 "For four days up to the time write this dispatch, when the fire is slack ening, there has been an incessant artillery duel, under cover of which both sides are intrenching themselves like armies of ants and rushing over open ground with rifle fire and bayon' ct charges in order to obtain advanc' ed positions for further intrenchments It is in this battle of the trnches that the British have shown their superior ity and gained good ground, though at a somewhat heavy cost.
 with the experience of the Boel war behind them, the British troops are fargbetter than the enemy in talk ing advantage of every scrap of cover for fighting in open formation. A the result of this they have been able to capture positions which seemed SC cure to the enemy.

 Meantime, the number of servants and waitresses increased from 10S,963 to but 122,S67, not withstanding the great growth of population. The nun. Der of tailoresses and the number of seamstresses and dressmakers exhib- it marked decline, assuming the ac- curacy of the figures telegraphed from Washington and the agreement and classification of the former with the last census. The number of sales women was 22,761 in 1910 as against 22,7O5 in 1900, and there was decline in some forms of factory labor, such as paper-box making.
 For a conclusive showing of wo- mems changing preferences in the choice of an occupation. an analysis of the full census report will be nee. essary. But enough is contained in the summary to indicate marked tendency away from laborious pursuits and drift upward toward those of politer nature, which provide inde- pendence along with congenial sur roundings.-NewY York World.
