"There is nothing,” said Rev. Anna. Howard Show a few evenings before she left to attend the council meetings in Washington, “which I like so much as the phrase ‘Woman’s Sphere’ when ap- plied to: intellectual women by the aver- age man, but I cannot understand why 2 he does not endeavor to _fprotect that sphere Thirty years ago; thousands Of pOOr women made a good living by day’ s washing. requires but little intelligence. Yet to~' day We find the business monopOlized by men. tional association of American laundry- men. not male washerwomen, mark you, and glory in their success at driving woman out of the field. “Dressmakers and seamstresses were formerly all women, but now a man does the sewing in a filthy tenement, a man takes your measure and a man sells wear and underwear to you across the counter. To cap the climax, if you want to be stylish you must patronize some men tailor. In fashionable society not a pretty maid but a coarse, ignorant man opens the door to you and serves you at dinner. In the kitchen a masculine chef replaces the good old woman cook. Men make mittens, socks and comforters on the knitting machine, and have driven the old lady and her needles out of the market. In flats and apartments the. male janitor brings up your coal and Wood, scrubs your halls and windows, feeds the dog and does two-thirds of the menial work. “Everywhere men are usurping the place of the waitress, the chambermaid, the scrub woman, the shop girl, the dairy maid, the governess. the music teacher, the singing teacher, the ladies’ hairdresser, the dishwasher, the preserve maker and the maker of-home made bread. It really requires a magnifying glass to find a part of woman’s sphere 'which is not occupied by a lot of superior male beings. The average man is cer- tainly a'coward, as well as a simpleton, to glibly descaut upon our sphere and deprecate our leaving it for a 'second, . while at the same time he calmly per- mits it to be parceied out and appro- priated by his own sex.” QUEER IDEAS'OF HONESTY. A Michigan Man Who \Vns ‘Bound to .Buy Green Goods. Charles Tyler, whose home is on a farm a couple of miles from the little town of Cheshire, in Michigan, was stopped by Patrolman Ryan at Albany, while on his way to New York to buy green goods and was sent back to his home in the pines. They went to police headquarters, where the man from the West gave Chief Wit lard. his name and address and told the old old story of the green goods circulars and letters. “\Vould you pass this counterfeit mon- ey?” asked the chief. "’Tain’t counterfeit money,” replied Mr. Tyler. “They sent me half of a bill an’ it wuz good’s gold! Durned me if it wasn’t! Besides, th’ government’s rich and th’ little money I’d spread ’round wouldn’t make it poor. Any way, I wouldn’t give it t’ no poor people. I’d only give it.t’ people whut could'spare Then the chief explained the ancient game. ,It was a new story to Tyler and his eyes filled with tears as he heard it. "Jest t’ think!” he said. “I sold all my bosses except one team, all my hogs, all my sheep and all my cattlel” But now and then he would recover his confidence and he said: “I don’t believe they’d cheat me. They’ve been honest in every letter they ‘ wrote me. They didn’t ask me t’ meet them in no dark place. They said fer me t’ come t’ a hotel. Here’s the tele- gram. Jest read it an’ tell me if it ain’t like one frum an honest man." The chief did not look at it, but he went to his desk and showed Mr. Tyler a half dozen telegrams and letters just like the ones he had received. Then he showed him a dozen or more neWSpaper clip- pings. The clippings settled thc whole thing. “When did you last read a paper?” asked the chief. “Don’t you ever read papers?" ‘ "Yes, sometimes; but they seemed so gosh darned honest,” .rcplied Mr. Tyler. “They did everything right out in the open.” ' “How much money have you?’_’ “I’ve jest got 3361." “You take part of it and buy a ticket to Cheshire,” advised the chief. “If you want me to I’ll give you 11. note to the conductor telling him to keep you from putting your head out of the window.” Mr. Tyler took a train for Saginaw at 8 o’clock in the afternoon.

Most of his early attempts at fiction he burned;ybut in time his hand became surer, and he found that he had learned at last the difficult art of story-telling. His little tales began to be published here and there in monthlies and in an- nuals. Being anonymous or under dif- fering signatures, they did not.attra.ct attention to the author; but in the news- paper notices of the periodicals in which they appeared they were often picked out for praise; and this finally encouraged Hawthorne to gather a score of them into asipgie volume published in 1837 under the apt title of ‘Twice Told Tales.’ Al- though the little book had no remarka- ble sale, it won its way steadily; and the readers who had enjoyed Irving’s pleas— ant sketches of New York character in ‘Rip Van Winkle’ and ‘The Legend of , Sleepy Hollow’ could not but remark that Hawthorne’s pictures of New Eng- land character revealed a stronger imag- ination and a deeper insight into human nature. Delightful as was Irving’s writ- ing, Hawthorne had a. richer style and a. firmer grasp of the art of fiction.—St. Nicholas. ' London Policeman Sleep. The London policeman is dignified if slow.

He was new to the neighborhood, and simply wanted to find out how long it would take to attract‘ the :attention of the man on the beat. , The magistrate discharged him in the interest of science.

NEW YORK, April 9. --The fifth session of the assembly committee appointed to in- vestigate and report- on the "sweatin " system and the conditions surround rig Women employed 111' factories and shops loaned today 1n the common council cham- her. The committee consists of Assem- blymmn Reinhard, Wilkes, A‘lrews, Stein- berm on Ii Kunzenman. William G. Thom- as, 11m ager of a Sixth avenue dry goods atom, sent word by telephone that as it was pay day he couldn’t come before the committee. ' The assemblymen present de- termined to, enforce their authority and sent mother subpoena server and a deputy sergeant-at—m-ms to manifest to Mr. Thom— - as the importance of obeying their sum— mons. Assemblyman Steinberg suggested handcuffs. but was outvoted. Joseph Siegel and several other wits ncsses, all Polish Jews, were excused be: cause of the beginning of the feast of the Passover. They will be called next Satur- day, when the committee will come down from Albany and sit in part two of the su- perior court. At 11:10 o’clock the committee, con- sisting at that time of Assemblyman Steinberg and- Wilkes, came "to order and called to the stand John Franey, a deputy factory inspector. The witness defined sweatshops and said that the trades in which “sweating” was principally con- ducted are the manufacture of clothing, artificial flowers and purses. He estimated the number of employees in New York city sweatshops at 70,000 under about 5,000 contractors. In Brooklyn there Were about 8. 000 sweaters under 900 contihctors and in New Jersey 15,000 sweaters under 1, 200 contractors. The district embraced by the sweaters in this city he defined roughly as east of Broadway and south of Fifth street: - Last year, he said, about three- fourths of the shops were visited. The inspections made numbered 4.200, of which 1,200 were icinspections. Only 20 per cent of the chaployees of the shops were women, ‘ and there are few children employed in the business. The violations of the law found by the inspectors were mainly in the employment in tenement houses of persons who did not live there. All but 15 of the 385 wholesale clothing manufactur- ers in this city had their goods made up in sweatshops, and the goods generally lay for some time in the rooms occupied night and day by the sweaters. Since the passe e of the factory law, the witness con. tinned, about 115,000 sweaters had been driven out of this state, and complaints wore received from the New Jersey in- spectors saying that their law was not ad- equate to cope with them.
