-ZUT NOTWITHSTANDING. THAT FACT
SHE MARRIED AN EDITOR.
Iliss Melle Stunleyetta Titus was the First
Woman' Admitted to the Bar in New
York, and She is not Going to Give Up
Practice Because She Has a Husband.
She who was Miss Titus is about 25
years Old.‘ She is Of medium height,
has large dark blue eyes and light brown
hair, which she brushes away from her
forehead. She first attracted notice in
.1891, when she Was graduated from the
head of the woman’s law class, consist-
ing of 105 men and 5 women, and won
‘ the Faculty prize of $100. She was
graduated in June, 1893, ranking fourth
in her class, and this in spite of eight
weeks of sickness just before her exam-'
inations. She then served a year’s
clerkship in an Office, and in J une, 1894,
she passed the bar examination before
Justice Van Brunt of the Supreme
Court. standing fourth in a class of for-
ty-eight, and winning the honor Of be-
ing the first woman admitted to the bar
of New York. She was admitted to
practice the following March in the
' United States Circuit Court here, being
the first woman to gain that honor, and
she was the first woman, also, to be ad-
mitted to practice in the United States
Circuit Court of-Appeals.

Miss Titus in the last year has deliv-
ered a course Of lectures on law before
the Young Friends’ Aid Association, on
Such subjects as “Wills,” “Intestate
Succession,” “Marriage and Divorce.”
“The Nature of Law in General,” and
“The Public Law of Nations.” Once
she said to a reporter:
“I long to see a jury of women. Of
course, I’m an ardent woman sufiragist.
I’ve worked for the cause for years, and
always shall work for it. I believe that
woman should vote, and that she should
be active in politics. Woman is natur-
allygood and she would influence man
to be good. Don’t I think thta man is
naturally good, too? Well, no. In any
event, it would be better if women had
as much voice in politics as men.
And I don’t think that women would
necessarily vote the way their fathers,
husbands, and brothers voted.”
On the subject of marriage and di-
vorce Miss Titus has strong views. In
another interview she said:
“I think that the divorce laws should
be uniform throughout the Union. As
it is now, the laws in the various States
play right into the hands of unscrupu-
lous people. A woman gets a divorce
from an unprinclpled man in New York
and he goes to New Jersey or Dakota
or anywhere else and marries whom he
chooses, perhaps the very ‘afiinity’ who
was the, cause of the woman‘s unhappi-
ness, and comes back here to live as
comfortably as ever.”
,And for all of these learned opinions
which Miss Titus held, she went like
many of her less learned sisters, and
married an editor. The happy man is
Edgar S. Werner, Of Werner‘s Maga-
azine. Miss Titus was a Quaker, so
.they had a religious ceremony at the
and later ,a civil marriage by Mayor
Strong. Mr. Werner said:
“My wife will, of course resume her
practice Of law. I Would not think Of
hampering her in the least. I believe
in the equal rights of women and in
letting them do anything they can.
Marriage should not hamper them. If
a woman Gan beat a man in his own
beaten by a woman ,that is my own
lookout.”
' lVIediclne in Honey.
The busy little bee has been forced
into a new business—that of the manu-
facture of medicated honey, in a variety
of flavors, for as many kinds _of dis-
eases. It is a “French scientist,” of
course. who has brought about this val-
uable addition to the pharmacopia, says
the San Francisco Examiner.
He keeps the bees in a large conserva-
tory, or at any rate, under glass, so that
they can only pasture upon flowers spe-
cially provided and chosen for special
medicinal properties. In this manner.

STEEL ROADS TO COME NEXT.
Gen. Stone Believes the Country Highwayi
“’111 in Future Have New Character”
“I believe that the ultimate solution
of our good roads problem for all great
thoroughfares lies in the steel high-
way,” said Gen. Roy Stone, the head of
the Government Road Department, a
few days ago. Gen. Stone is probably
the best authority on the road question
in the country.
“Undoubtedly the wearing surfaces
of all highways connecting our great
cities and traversed by wagons and
light vehicles are to be flat steel rails,”
Gen. Stone continued. “There is no
greater propriety or economy in running
a wagon than there would be in running
a railroad train over a rough surface of
earth or stone. Horseless vehicles will
undoubtedly develop metal roads. The
005% to begin with, will be higher than
that of stone or concrete roads; but
with the present low price of steel the
saving in wear would soon compensate
for the difference in cost. At the same
time the saving in the expense of haul-
ing would be from fifty to eighty per
cent.” '
“What is your idea of the way such a
steel highway should be built?”
“It should consist of a double line of
track, with a carriage road on either
side. Wagons with heavy loads could
follow one another upon it in a. straight
line either way, while lighter and faster
vehicles could pass them by turning out
occasionally into the side roads. Flat
rails laid upon stringers should be the
style of track used. They should be
laid level with the roadway, so that
wheels might pass onto or OE them
without difficulty. The general form
of the rail should be a shallow trough
with flat bottom, and outer edges
raised only enough to give a gentle
guidance to the wheels. The width
should be suited to the gauges of all
vehicles. I find that in New York and
vicinity—where there is, perhaps, the
greatest variety Of road vehicles—the
gauges of wagons and carriages range
from four feet ten inches to six feet. A
rail ten inches wide would, therefore,
'be necessary to accommodate all of
these gauges comfortably.”
The State Road Commissioner of New ,
Jersey, Mr. Henry I. Budd, proposes to
lay steel rails about the thickness of
ordinary boilerplate, rolled in the shape
of a gutter, five inches wide, with a
square perpendicular rim one-half inch
high. It is arranged to form a conduit
for water, and makes it easy for
wheels to enter or leave the track. Mr.
Budd says that one horse will draw on
a steel track twenty times as much as
on a dirt road, and five times as much
as on macadam. A double track steel
highway of his design, he says, would
cost $1,000 less per mile than one of
macadam the same size, while a rural
oneltrack rood would cost $5,000 less,
or 82,000 per mile. Mr. John O’Don~
nell, ex-member of the New York Rail
road Commission, proposes the use Of
guttershaped rails, spiked to timbers,
running the same length as the rails,
the heads of the spikes being below
the ground surface. He also prescribes
cheaper steel highways, which may be
used for branch lines connecting the
main highway with the residences or
barns of farmers along the way. Steel
highways. he says, would be well
adapted to light s’team engines or
horseless motors. For $10 a trip, he
estimates, a. steam motor could be run
for one hundred miles, carrying from
fifty to one hundred tons burden.
DEMOCRACY’S ONE LEADER.
Senator Hill Has Assumed That Position ‘
Since the Chicago Convention.
Senator Hill’s attitude at the Chi-
cago Convention, places him in the
lead of the Old line Democracy. When
the democrats shall have forsaken their
silver idol four years hence, Senator
Hill will logically be their candidate
for the Presidency. '
The discontented at Chicago flocked
around him. They were the gold stan-
rard democrats from the East and the
far Northwest. Those who were in
debt gathered round" him with great
concern. They were the free populists
‘ and democrats who/owe the East money

which they wanted to pay Off in fifty
cent dollars, and who were arguing
with' him to withdraw as a candidate-
for temporary chairman of the Conven-
tion.
Those were great days for Hill. He
attracted more attention than any
other, democrat. Mr. Whitney retreat-
ed to the background and deftly put
Mr. Hill to the front.
,His candidacy so confused and con-
founded the free silver leaders as to the
first step in their programme of anni-
hilating the East, that the gold men be-
lieved them to be very much at sea.

' NO THEOSOPHY FOR HER.
She Preferred Soap to all Soul, and Didn’t
Need a Mahatma.
She was an exceedingly practical wo-
man and had listened to the interesting
dissertation upon politics, religion, and
theosophy by her cultured caller for
half an hour.
“I can’t {quite understand it, but I
suppose it is all right,” she said. “I’m
more worried about that new gas
stove.”
“The system of theosophy,” contin-
ued the enthusiast, “presupposes the
existence Of the absolute”.
“Now, if , I could only apply the sys-
tem to keeping bugs out of the‘ house—-
absolutely, you know, I would join any-
thing I”
“Man, according to theosophy, ,is
endowed with seven different natures,
and—” '
"That’s about right, anyhow. I can
count six of them in’my husband. One
is to throw things down on the floor for
forget to mail a letter to his wife’s
mother, and another to attribute his
headache to overwork, when he knows
he’s just been trying to drink Broadway
dry the night before. That is three. .I
could name half a dozen more natures
and not half try.”
“It is in Nirvana that man loses these
earthly natures and merges into the
all- soul as‘ a drop unites with the
ocean.”
“I don’t believe it! All of these
nerve tonics just set you up awhile, and
then leave you worse than ever. As for“
morphine and opium and all those
drugs that inerge you into the all-
sou ——”
“The Mahatma—"
“Now. for goodness sake, tell me
what a Mahatma is! I’ve seen his name
in the papers very often, and——”
“A Mahatma is one who has achieved
Nirvana, but resolutely refuses to enter
it on account of his great love for man-
kind.”
“He’d rather be here on earth, eh?
and have fun with us than to be an all-
soul wandering around space? Well,
that’s like the rest of us. What kind
I of kitchen soap do you use?"
“Soap! Good heavens, what a carnal
i thing you are l”
The visitor shook out her
. a frown. - ‘
“That’s right, I guess,” responded the
practical woman—“I’m on earth, and
while I’m on earth I’m going to wrestle
\ with earthly things. I’d rather be a
good cook than a mahatma, any day.
i Good- by, dear! Call again—but re-
member, we wash Thursdays.”
THE DOWNFALL OF SHANTYTOWN.
Squatters of Upper New York Fast Losing
Their Possessions.
About the last of Shantytown has de-
parted from Manhattan Island, and
persons in search Of the aborigines of
the American metropolis will have to
seek them henceforth far up in the An-
nexed District, in Blissville, or at some
other equally remote corner of the
Greater New York. A small scattered
settlement of this once powerful tribe
remains over on the west side, cluster-
ing about the Boulevard, but the dozen
wigwams banished _ by the Board of
Health from the Bad Lands, between
97th and 100th streets, just east Of the
Park, were the most cOnsiderable vil-
lags of the fierce and untamed squatters
that remained on the island since their
defeat and banishment by the police
from the present site of the 7th Regi-
ment Armory.

So it used to be, in the days when
their council lodge, the shanty saloon
and notable powwows. but the persist-
ent hostility Of the tribe of the Cops
had discouraged many, and not over
two dozen wigwams remained when by
the treaty Of the Criminal Court House
their possessors were finally made to
surrender them and the reservation,
and to move out. Five or six who con-
sented to abandon the glorious tradi-
tions of the past and to connect abject-
ly with the sewer, were allowed to stay.
But these are henceforth mere depend-
ents) They have lost caste, and their
names will not be remembered at the
council fire. They are already for
gotten.
THE .BIBLE.
the Cheapest Book' with the Largest
Circulation.
The past 90 years have seen the dis
tribution of more than 250,000,000 vol-
umes of the Bible, printed in about 350
different languages and dialects. Of
course, no one need be reminded that no
other book ever had in the history Of the
world a tithe of this ,circulation. Yet
the people who are devoting their labor
or their ,money to the spread of the Gos-
pel realize thorou‘ghly that their work
can be said to be only fairly begun. At
the rate‘it has gene on since its- incep-
tion, in 1804, it will take many centu-
ries more to furnish the entire race with
the Bible. For, it must be remem-
bered. bdoks are perishable, and the
race is increasing in numbers.
