THEIE are in Spain to-day but FIVE
o. six women who are doing
things And there are no won.
on su9FragistS. II is no wonder, then
that Senior Ruben Dario, the great poet
Of the Spanish tongue, who ranks with
DAnnunzio, Of Italy, and Rostand, o.
France, and Is now in New York. Is
overwhelmed st the activities of Amer
lean women, who, from the newspapers,
seem TO be doing everything in this
country.
"Ellcs sont prodiCes prod Ces," he
murmured in French, which was as
near as he could come 10 expressing
his feelings in the matter.
Sefor Dsrio, who comes from Madrid,
where women still live in almost ORR
entail seclusion, learned for the first
time that there were women senators,
women judges, women mayors and
women policemen in this country He
listened with intense interest, and was
especially curious about polcewomen.
"Ce Sont Prodiges."
These policewomen, they wear a
uniform and walk on the streets7' he
asked in amazement. And then when
he was told the nature Of their work
and how they worked in behalf Of wom-
en- children he shook his head
slowly and murmured again, "Ce sont
prodiges, ces femmes-la."
There still linger in Spain many
traces Of the Moorish occupation. &C
cording to Sefor Dario. One sees them
in the architecture, the mosques and
mlnsrets, in the folklore and literature
Of the country and In the status Of
women.
Spanish Women Have No Liberty.
THE women OF Spain know nothing
OF the liberty your women enjoy he
said. "They are guarded almost as
carefully as the occupants Of a harem.
When they go out they wear wells, and
they are always attended by ar old
woman. After their marriage, which
is arranged by the parents, of course,
the women have even less freedom.
When ! walk down the streets in Ma
drid see the faces Of women peering
out behind closed blinds. They are
very far from this feminism you talk
about in this country. With the ex-
ception Of FIVE or six. there are no
women among the intelectuals OF
Spain"
But in Nicaragua, however, where
Senior Dario was born and lived before
ne was sent as Minister to Spain, there
is a broader life for women. There
it is more like the cities of the United
States he explained. "Buenos Ayrcs,
for instance, is little New York"

II was in Buenos Ayres that SeHor

Of 800 public school teachers. said yes
terdsy, in commenting upon the cleo
ton Of Mr.. Churchill as president OF
the Board OF Education:
"Nr. Churchill has helped 20 free the
Board Of Education from condition
Of actual subordination TO the City Su-
perintendent.
"For years Dr. Maxwell was virtually
the absolute ruler OF the New YORK
public schools. The following incident
illustrates his power:

the Board OF Education the miscon-

the board asked me TO put these
charges in writing. | did so. and sub
mitted proof.
Although I had presented the
charges at the request of the president
of the Board Of Education. and had
proved them, I was transferred FOR in
subordination.
Democracy an Issue.
"Ths late Mayor Gaynor understood
this condition OF the schools and de-
cided that a change was necessary. he
indorsed Mr.. Churchill for the presi-
dencv OF the board, on platform OF
efficiency and democracy

these little gardens have become popu-
lar Is astonishing, but when one CON
siders the ease with which they are
maintained, the range of price that
makes them accessible 10 all, and the
exquisite charm Of them for interior
decoration, il is not surprising. They
have usurped the place Of the stif

gardens. The terra Gotta pot is sue

conventional plants are replaced by

The "bonsai" is an artistic repro
duction of Japanese landscape
framed in suitable receptacle. The
imagination runs riot in the miniature
forest of dwarfed evergreens not more
than half foot tall, yet covered with
messy bark suggesting hoary OLD
age. Or we are permitted a glimpse
into the serenity Of tiny garden,
with its little lakes, its spanning
bridges and its fragrant blossoms. A
little piece Of stone is transformed
into the mighty mountain Full, and

SEATTLE, Feb, l9.-Somewhat of a sensation was created among old Alaskans when word was passed around last evening that Dr. r. B.. Whiting, formerly surgeon for the Copper River & Northwestern Rail- way construction crews had been plac- ed under arrest. The charge against him was for administering morphine to patient. Inquiries made brought the explanation that a fend who was addicted to the drug habit was in such a critical state that the Dr. was in- duced to prescribe morphine. A cop who had been keeping his eye on the fend followed him to the Dr.'s office, and the arrest was afterwards made. At least that's the way the story runs.

The attempt of the government to cancel the U. S. patent granted near ly seven years ago to Wm. B. Poland, charging fraud, raises the question as to whether soldiers additinal scrip rights attach to two contiguous par cells of land of one hundred and sixty acres each. Two patents were issued in the regular manner, each covering I6O acres; the government now seeks to avoid one of the patents and toI repudiate the acts of it's officers in so doing. A demurrer raised the ques- tion of the right of the government to institute such a suit, and Judge Brown has reserved his decision.

The DelusiOn of a Warranty Deed A Warranty deed is too often a delusion and snare.
 It sometimes conveys an ab- solutely bad title.
 Your lawyer will tell you so. The warranty in the deed is no stronger than the present ability of the maker to make good. He may be dead when your defect is discovered; his estate may be insolvent.
 Again, your title may be held up as unmarketable at time when a sale is extremely de- sired.
