Higher Education of Women.
The question of what use people’s
daughters would make of higher educa-
tion after they got it seems to be un-
‘ swering itself. One part of the answer
is found in the recent election of Miss
Emily James Smith to be dcan of Bar-
nardcollego, New York city. Barnard
is the women's branch of Columbia
college, and it was Opt'iit‘tl two years
ago. Seth Low is president of both in
ltitntione, but Miss Smith is dean of the
girls’ departmcnt. Barnard college has
19 professors, all of thcxn but one men,
and of these Donn Smith will haw
charge.
The lady is 30 years of agc. Ilcr 5pc-
clnlty is the Greek language, in which
she is one of the distinguishcd scholars
of the country. She is also 11. writer on
subjects connectcd with Grcck literature
and is likewise an admirable public
Ipeakcr, it is said. So she will be well
mitted for her place. Miss Smith studied
first at the Harvard annex, tin-11 gradu-
ated at Bryn Mawr, aftcrward going to
Europe, to (iirton collcgc, continuing
her favoritc aiudics undtr l’l'oft-smn'
Jebb. As soon as she camc homo shc
had a place ready for [or in Packer in-
stitute. Brooklyn, but paw it up to go
to Chicago univursity, win-re she had
won a Greek fellowship.
It requires far more brain, will power
and physical cndurancc than the ordi-
nary girl possessos to follow up a coursi-
of severe study for Si‘Vi'I'ill yours, as Miss
Smith has donc. But, for the young
woman who [hmsvsscs tiwsc qualities
there seems now no lack ofopport unity to
utilize her higher education the mommt
she has attained it. After she has really
secured for ltcrsvlf the highest of high
Scholarships she finds usually that good
places are waltmg to Mlnp 1111' up at
once. The salary rt‘crivwl by the new
dean of Barnard is not Iili'iifluiil‘il, but
it will scazoa-ly lw lo»- than $5,000 a
year. It should not he his»: than that,
considering tho honorable and rcslmnsio
bio position.
The ficld of Work most upon to the
young women of highrr education is
that of touching. Homo drift into litcr~

i mprisooinc Newspaper Men.
The Bonnie investigating committee is
quite right to try to make Messrs'E. J.
Edward» oi the Philadelphia Press and
J. S. Shrivor of the New York Mall
and Express tell who gave them the in-
form on that certain senators bad-held
a con relies in Washington with reprev
sentativee of the Sugar trust, and that
the sugar tariff schedule had been in the
hands of a firm of brokers before it had
been reported to the senate. On their
part likewise Mei-ism Edwards and
Shriver are quite right in absolutely rc-
fusiug to tell the source of their knowl-
edge, declaring that they will go to jail
first.
The most important case of imprison-
ed newspaper correspoznleuts in this
country occurred during the progress of
the Alabama claims negotiations, when
White and Ramsdcll of the New York
Tribune procured and gave to their pa-
per a copy of the treaty betwucn Great
Britain and the United States before
the United States senate had solemnly
given it out for publication. The senate
was considering it at the time in execu-
tive session, with closed doors, and the
publication of it was justly regarded as
a great stroke of journalism. White and
Ramsdcll were imprisoned in a com-
mittee room instead of being sent to
jail, and the greatest hardship they on-
dured was said by one of them to be
that in dining they had to wipe their
lips upon table napkins that had been
stiflly starchcd. But they never told
anytl1i11g,- and to this day it is not
known who gave them the treaty.
The punishment for refusing to answer
the questions of a congressional com-
mittee is a line of not more than $1,000
or lessythan $100 and imprisonment for
not more than one year or less than
one month. Undoubtedly any paper
would chccrfully pay even the outside
sum fixed for one of its correspondents
who had given valuable information,
and he would be a brave judge indeed
who should venture to sentence a repu-
table nou'spapcrfiman who had a habit
of telling the truth to prison for a year
because he would not divulge the source
of important news.
In each of the cuscs in question it
will be observed that the trouble arose
from tho scnutt-‘s absurd and puttcring
habit of surrounding its actions with an
air of sct‘rccy. If tl1c senate wanted to
consult promim nt sugar rciincrs as well
as sugar importcrs on n matter of vital
1mportam ctotln 111 and tozill lhc Amer-
ican pcoplc, they lind a perfect right to
do so. If 1 l‘.‘ ‘5' had done it open and show

the senators wcrc sincaring themselves
up with sugar.

, More Men Than Women.
The United States census bureau has
issued a special bulletin containing mar-
riage statistics. It has been as carefully
compiled as the nature of the case would
admit. Its conclusions upset several
points of popular belief. One of these
is that there are more women than men
in the country. The cold figures‘sbow
that this is not true of the country at
large, even it it be so of Massachusetts.
But Massachusetts is not the country,
though Boston may think the country
revolves around her as a pivot.
The fact is that we have 1422,410 more
males than females in the United States,
so that every woman could have a bus-
band if she wanted one and have a frac-
tion of a man to spare besides. so far as
the mere supply of men goes. Thisought
to comfort those maidens who still have
hope that their affinities may be found,
though it holds out small consolation to
bachelors.
‘ Statistics of widowhood and widower-
hood'show a difference on the other side.
Widows are for some reason far more
constant to the memory of the dear de-
parted than widowers. For every widow
or who remains in the single state there
are 3g widows. And yet, with the ma-
jority of widowers remarrying, there are
still nearlya million and ahalf husbands
left over for the ladies who want them.
Perhaps “1on are not distributed in ...»,~
