Box Car House Burned.

A IRE alarm at 6:2U last night
called the department to the North
ern Pacific tracks where a box car
frame sitting on the ground and used
as house for Waterman, was
burned The origin of the fire was
not learned. The department made
a quick run. The firmen were get

which was to ring at 7 o'clock, for
the firemen's dance, when the bell for

He might be a biological necessity for
time, but there was no reason in the new
state Of society why he should be the per-
manent head of the family, the ruler OF
the household, lifelong incumbrance to
an up-to-date woman.
Why is it not reasonable to suppose that
these words of Miss Polly French inaugu-
rated a peculiar mental complex in her
hearers? Coming from the most brilliant
member of the family they may well have
opened the minds of her kinswomen on the
divorce question. Her words did not show
their influence at once, but they sank in
apparently and brought forth amazing re.
suits in later years.
Other social problems besides the one
Of divorce are being demonstrated in the
French home. The divorced Mrs. lie Roy
French is taking care of the child of her
son and a pretty telephone operator, and
also of the child Of her daughter and a
stalwart chauffeur. What will become OF
these children-half OF aristocratic and
plutocratic French blood, half Of plebeian
extraction? Will they exhibit the peculiar
tendencies Of the French family in matrt
monial affairs, or will they revert to the
primordial family customs Of their plebeian
ancestors? They form part OF what is
probably the strangest household In all
American fashionable society.

England telephone operator and widow of
the second son Of the house.
Young Edward Tuck French made run

from him, and later he arranged to enter

however, when informed that his wife was
to become mother, and a reconciliation
was brought about through his mothers
efforts. He died a short time afterward

What was 1t that started the French
family. once renowned for its aristocratic
conservatism on the pathway of easy di-
yorce? One thinker has discovered pos
sible cause in a startling girlhood essay
OF Mrs. Polly French Wagstaff, the latest
diyorcee, on "Man, the Obsolete"
In this essay, read to group of women
friends, Miss Polly French, as she then
was, argued with much eloquence that for
most of the purposes of civilized life man
was obsolete and rapidly becoming more
80. She demonstrated that all the govern.
mental, administrative, intellectual and
artistic functions of society could best be
performed by women.
The youthful thinker suggested that
while some essential labors and duties
must always be performed by man, It
would be quite proper to keep him in an
extremely humble and subordinate posi-
tion. That would be the aim OF the glori-
Gus. emancipated society Of the future.
Loud murmurs OF applause greeted the
profound and daring remarks OF the youth.

that they sank deep into the minds Of all
present-perhaps deeper than anyone sus.
pected at the time.
One obvious lesson Of Miss Polly
French's philosophy was that man as a
husband, In the old sense, was superfuous.
