WOMAN’S GREAT recesses.
She Will Get the Ballot In Two Years In
England, Lady Somerset Believes—A
Severe Charge of Immorality
‘ Against Boys’ Schools.
LONDON, June 18.—The nineteenth an-
nual meeting of the British Woman’s Tem-
perance association opened 'in City Tem-
ple. There was a large crowd in attend-
ance. The principal feature of the session
was the annual address of the president,
Lady Henry Somerset. who said’:
“With us, as with our sisters across the
waters, this day celebrates the completion,
of an epoch in our
annals. The tem-
perance question

ty twice recommended from the throne
and championed by the leader of the house
of commons. The strength of public sen-
timent indicated by these facts marks En g-
land as the leader of national sentiment
and purposed legislation among the na-
tions of the earth. .
“In 1870, when Wendell Phillips and
William Lloyd Garrison, those flaming
heralds of emancipation, came from Bos-
ton as delegates toa great meeting in Lon-
don, Mrs. Lucretia Mott of. Philadelphia
came with them. She. too, had been elect-
ed a delegate to the English meeting, but
because she was a woman she was relegat-
ed to the gallery as a mere locker on, and
the two brilliant American men whose
work rendered the continuance of African
slavery impossible in the great republic
' declined to sit as delegates with men who
had shown such injustice and went them—
selves to the gallery with their sister,
Whose name-disavowed in that circle of
reformers—has become a star of the first
magnitude in the galaxy of the great re-
formers.

“That was 55 years ago, and today we
Welcome a shiplcad of American women

ped and best known woman reform work-
ers of the world, and the British mind is
so enlarged that more than 200 pulpits
and mission halls were open to them Sun-
day in conservative old London. They
come from Chicago, a city deservedly fa-
mous among intelligent people for its
Christian philanthropy and reform, if one
seeks to see it's virtues, as it is for its riots.
strikes and slums, if one seeks only its de-
fects. They bring us tidings of a recent
. municipal election in that city in which
by over 40,000 majority the ‘ring’ was
turned out and reputable men put in their
places. They come from New York, where
women have been foremost factors in help-
ing to overthrow the political brigands,
better known as the Tammany ring. They
come from Boston, where but three years
ago as their guest on the occasion of my
first visit I saw the streets blocked at 10
o’clock in the morning so that the cable
cars could not proceed; as women from ev-
ery fine of the 50 states and territories that
make up the American Union, gathered
to witness the opening ceremonies and lis-
ten to the annual address of the president
of the National W. C. T. U.
And Still They Come.
“They come from Philadelphia, where
the white ribbon movement is familiar as
a household word; from'Baltimore, where
the work of Mrs. Carey Thomas, the sis-
ter of our own Hannah Whitehall Smith,
laid the foundation on which has grown a
work that is a beacon light to the tempted
and despairing; they come from Washing-
ton. where in February last. and almost
every pulpit in the city, except, of course,
those few hierarchical churches that do
not recognize the existence of women. save
as they help to fill the pews, was freely
opened to them on the Sabbath day, and
the largest temperance meetings ever held
there were addressed by them, and they
come from San Francisco and New 01:-
leans, from St. Louis and Minneapolis.
They come from the great crusade state of
Ohio, and many of them were leaders in
the whisky war.
“To us as English women it is a home-
llke fact that these delegates come from
Canada, which has within a year voted for
prohibition by such,_majorities as leave the
government no alternative if it would eon-
:inue to be an exponent of the public opin-
on.
But 'Not Many From Europe.
“Our sister delegates have come from
Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.
in which rising republics of the people the
White Ribbon m0vement is by common
consent accorded the first rank as a con-
serving force for righteousness among all
the agencies that have been newly planted
there. They come from Japan, whose wom-
en under the influence of our home pro«
tection movement shall yet win on the
fields of peace greener laurels than their
brothers on the bloody fields of war. They
come from China, the well nigh impervi-.
one center of ancient cruelty to men and
degradation to women, which, while claim-
ing to be the most civilized, is really one
of the most barbarous nations on the face
of the earth. From India, the land of ris-
ing hope, symbolized not by the camp or
court of the viceroy, but by the white fig-
ure and glowing eyes of Pundita Rama-
bad, with her group of little widows gath~
ered about her in the industrial school of ‘
Poona:
”Not many of them come from Europe.
whose soil is beaten hard by the march of
armies, whose trade inbeer and wine has,
inundated it with old time fallacies on the
alcoholic question, but in which the north-
ern light shines for us from the W. C. T.
v U. and Loyal Temperance legion, already
begun in Norway, and the star of‘ a new
hope from Mrs. Gordon-Gulick’s school for '
the higher education of girls, the only one
of its grade in Spain. _
Nerwalk, Conn, TuesdayiEvenin‘g, June 18, 1895.

Representing a Vast Army.
“Women are here through whose heroic
leadership 15,000,000 boys and girls in the
public schools of the United States are be-
ing taught the effect of alcoholics and all
narcotics on the human system. Women
are here through whose efforts thegreat
Sunday school system has set apart four
Sundays in the year for especial temper-
ance instruction. They have brought with
them the polyglot petition calling for the
overthrow of the legalized trade in alcohol-
ic liquors and in opium, and insisting on
an equal standard of personal purity for
men and women—a petition signed in 50
languages and in all the important coun-
tries of the world, and which is to be pre‘
sented to the chief officers of every leading
government, as it has already been to the
president and representatives of congress in
the United States.
“The presence of such a host, represent-
ing such a work, when contrasted with the
gentle Quaker lady from Philadelphia,
who was not allowed to enter the old time
antislavery convention, gives us some idea
of the distance we have come in the de-
velopment of woman’s pOWers within half
a century, and prophesies what her posi-
tion shall-be in freedom, knowledge, con-
science and power ere another generation
shall have unrolled the record of human
destiny under the guiding hand of Chris-
tian civilization.
“The enfranchisement of women has
now become a part of the solid rock under
our feet. It is interwoven with our total
abstinence and prohibition principles as
closely as a single wire ever was in the
world embracing cables that carry the tele-
graph message ef the individual. The wo-
men of New Zealand have the full rights
of voters. the women in the great state of
Colorado haVe the same, and the executive
committee of the B. W. T. A. recommends
the establishment of a department for the
enfranchisement of women, with a super-
intendent at its head. The women of Eng-
land will no doubt be enfranchised within
the next two years.
' A Plea. For Coeducation.
“Closely related to the movements that
occupy our thought is one which in the
United States has been worked out to an
assured success. and that is coeducation.
It is my deliberate conviction that, but for
the hysteria into which so many men and
Women noyelists have fallen, there is no
remedy so sane and sound as the education
of our young people together. If anybody
dared to speak the truth about boys’ pub-
lic schools in England, there would be a
social convulsion worse than the lamen-
table disclosure of the past winter. When
We try to segregate girls and women into
school or harem, boys and men into the
school or governments We have frustrated
God’s grace, and we must pay the penalty.
“Theactien of the London county coun-
cil on the temperance question indicates
the high water mark of the municipal re-'
form. The council has not retained a sin-
gle license which has fallen into its hands
when acquiring property. It has abandon-
ed 27 licenses at a cost of £37,000. Alco-
holic drinks have been abolished by the
council from the asylums, and temperance
refreshments are insisted on in the parks.
The Living Picture Question.
“The agitation against immoral living
pictures (never, let it be remembered,
against beautiful and pure pictures, either
living or dead) has gone hand in hand
with the great movement for reform in
municipal politics, and I hope we shall by
a rising vote evince our appreciation of.
those good and true White Ribbon wom-
en, of Whom Mrs. Laura Ormisten Chant
in a chief, who are first and foremost in
the London crusade against immorality
masquerading under the forms of art.
“I have studied very carefully the meth-
ods employed in Sherburne prison. Massa-
chusetts, and I have seen the marvelous
effect that is produced on the moral nature
of women by giving employment that in-
volves the looking after live animals,
the rearing of young birds and other occu—
pations which bring them in contact with
nature and with natural life. Their in-
terest and eagerness to succeed is extraor-
dinary. <
“Mrs. J. K. Barney of Providence,
whose efforts to advance prison reform
have been so successful, will, we hope, go
around the world as the culmination of
her lifework, and wherever she goes light
will break in through the cheerless win-
dows of the prison house. The new thought
in prison reform has been carried outin
the Sherburne Refermatory prison for We-
men, near Boston. The watchword of the
reformatory is temperance, truth, trust.
The women work on the farm and in the
garden. Mrs. Johnson thinks their asso-
ciation with domestic animals has been of
great advantage. Each division of the
prison has a lamb of its own, which wears
the ribbon of that division, and they have
a day set apart in spring for naming the
lambs. They have a handsome schoolroom
fitted up as well as any in the country’and
an extensive lending library, managed on
the same lines as the best libraries out-
side of prison. They wear large pockets,
so that they can carry a book with them,
and at all odd times, while they are wait-
ing for meals, before chapel or during the
intervals of work. they take their books
and read instead of enduring grim and en-
forced silence or idle and harmful gossip-
in . v
g Football as a. Foregleam.
“When a prisonerwears a blue shawl
with white stripe, she has reached the
highest grade, and among the 315 women
by far the larger number were the shawl
when I was there. The central thought
is that every human being is redeemable.
I need not say that this is a Christian pris-
on, for every ingenious device in the build-
ing and management is the outcome of
the most tender and thoughtful care, wis-
dom and purpose on the part of those who
believe that every prisoner may be a pris-
oner of hope.
“The recent- action of the faculty of
Harvard university forbidding intercolle-
giate games of football because of the bar-
barous excesses to which experts in Amer-
ica have carried it in recent years is a
forcgleam of what we may expect when
the older and Wiser heads deal with the
whole question of amusements and athletic
exercises. Under the present system the
publican or saloon keeper is the chief mas-
ter of ceremonies during the people‘s hours
of recreation.” “

82, 700,000 should be expended in making
a navigable waterWay between the Hud-
son and Long Island sound by way of
Spuyten Duyvil creek and the Harlem
river. Congress appropriated the sum of
$1,000,000 for carrying on the work. Of
this sum $100,000stiil remains, but the
Work is not yet complete. It is thought
that at least two years’ktime and $2,0’00,~

The first work .‘ sdone on the canal on
Jan. 21, 1888. The most difficult part of
the undertaking was the cut through Mar-
ble bill, which fronts the Hudson river at
that point. The out is 350 feet wide in
its narrowast part and 400 feet in its wid-
est. The mean depth of water at low tide
is 18 feet.
The United States warships Atlanta
and Cincinnati took part in the exercises
and fired salutes when the first flotilla
passed through the canal.
