It will be of greater benefit to him than six months in a rest or a trip across the Atlantic. Though countless women's clubs are being formed throughout the country for the discussion of interesting subjects, it is only recently that there has sprung into existence what is known as the Three D's club, to which one's eligibility is the negative qualification of possessing the ability to suppress all mention of those questionable and boring subjects which come under the fourth letter of the domestic affairs, disease arid dress. Who is not weary of the woman who has no resources of entertainment but these tiresome themes? She is everywhere, and she talks only of this threadbare "trinity" of topics as if there were no clever new delightful collections of pictures and no practical discoveries in the realms of science. It is only fair and just to appreciative women that those who will confine their interests and conversation to the topics which are tacitly tabooed by the well bred should be blackballed in clubs where more considerate women have banded themselves together for the common pleasure of taking a view of the world outside of the necessarily "circumscribed orbit in which the three d's have Citizen.

Mrs. Wright is equally commended. But while Mrs. Wright is honored by Brooklyriftes and preaches to large congregations, "conservative" San Francisco has forced Mrs. Sprague to resign, and she and her husband will seek some less conservative field in which to save souls, probably Wisconsin, from which they came.

Mrs. Sprague is not the first woman preacher whom the Californians have frozen. The Rev. Eliza Tupper Wi Ikes was assistant minister at the Unitarian church in Oakland until the active hostility of the women of the parish and lack of funds to pay her salary banished her. When the far west is treating its women preachers in this fashion, it is pleasing to see how the extreme east acts.

Here in New York is Mrs. Augusta Stetson, the regularly ordained pastor of the Christian Science church, whose influence is widely felt. Her congregation is composed of men and women of culture and intellect, and there has never been shown during the eight years of her ministry any disposition to oust her because of her sex. On the contrary, the constant increase in her influence and the scope of her work is remarkable. When she 'began to preach, her congregation numbered but 16 persons, and her pulpit was an inverted dry goods box.

Now she has always as many as 500 in her congregation, and it ia still growing. Another New York woman preacher is Mrs. Laura Lathrop, also a Christian Scientist. The Rev. Phebe C.

Hanaford, too, belongs to New York now and has served at various places in the east during her long ministry. Boston has numerous women preachers, mainly of the Universalist and Unitarian churches. Among them are the Rev. Mary Whitney, who has charge of a Unitarian church at Somerville; the Rev. Mary Eddy and the Rev.

Mabel McCoy. At Greenpoint, N. there is a successful woman preacher in the person of Mrs. C. L.

Jackson. At Union Springs, N. is the Rev. Elizabeth Comstocfc. The middle west has a large number of women preachers.

The Rev. Florence Hallock of Chicago, the Rev. Mary Morehead of Wyanet, the Rev. Margaret Elliott of Arrowsmitb, and the Rev. EllaNiswouger of Elliott, are among them.

They are all honored and York World. Mrs. Booth Mid the New Woman. Mrs. Ballington Booth has been repeating, in a lecture on "The New Woman, a great deal of that adverse criticism of which we have heard so much from a great variety of sources.

Inasmuch as the career of Mrs. Booth illustrates a typeiof woman utterly unknown to a previous generation, it would not be unf air argue that in her wholesale denunciation of the new woman she might unconsciously be framing an argument against the Salvation lassies, of whom she is the leader. But it is the prerogative of woman to be inconsistent, and when we find one of the very newest of women inveighing against the new woman we can afford to treat it as a case in which the permanent instinct of the sex has asserted itself as superior to the influence of an impulse. It may, however, be useful as well as timely to call attention to one important respect in which the new woman differs from her censors. A story is told of the Princess of Wales that in answer to the question as to what was her favorite occupation she replied that her favorite occupation was "minding her own business.

This story seems applicable to the present situation. In contrast with the vast and varied volume of advice, reproof, criticism, censure, scorn and downright abuse poured out against the' 1 new woman we do not recall an instance in which the objects of this attention have retaliated in kind. The new woman does not seem to be addicted to the) of carping or nagging at her elder sisters. She seems rather to resemble the of Wales in indulging in her favorite occupation of "minding her own; business," and really her selection is one which might be commended to her censors.

In his observations on atmospheric pressure at the bottoms of the deep mining shafts of Europe, Professor Arnott has found that the change between the readings of a barometer at the bottom of a 4,000 foot shaft and one it the surface is great enough to warrant him in making the statement that air at the bottom of a shaft 20 miles deep would be as dense as water. Figuring on the same ratio, he finds that if a hole could be sunk 40 miles into the bowels of the earth the density of the air at the bottom would be as great as that of Louis Republic. vous B( quickly.

Edward von Hartmann, whose "Philosophy of the Unconscious" has been of late years the leading fad of metaphysics, has been delivering himself. of his opinion on the subject of the new woman in a way that is in these daya, to say the least, decidedly daring. He believes that the chief cause of our present day evils is the higher education of women, and he would "put an end to this system with one stroke and set our daughters back to the level of education with which our grandmothers we're satisfied." He has no use whatever for training which renders woman too refined and cultured to perform "her natural and social and housework." According to this philosopher of tho Unconscious, every woman has failed in the performance of her duty if she has not become the mother of 11 "two before the twentieth year, five in the twenties, three in the thirties and one in the forties;" that every true woman ought to do all her own housework, with the occasional assistance of a charwoman for the roughest part of it, and that "maidens cannot learn too early" what is their proper task.

In these opinions the good German metaphysician but repeats ideas for Schopenhauer, Spencer, and, in fact, those of about all the philosophers of the world who have been anything but complimentary to feminine aspirations in the way of "higher culture." Now let the philosophers beware. For ages they have constructed the theories and theologies of the world, and mankind has stood by and let them do it. But if they insist in keeping woman to her "natural and social duties nursing and will rise in her wrath and either write a new philosophy to suit herself or else sweep away the whole business of metaphysics as profitless speculation and idle vaporing. But as she ia hardly patient enough to construct out of one idea a complex system which shall explain the universe, she will be forced to adopt the second alternative, and as the new woman generally accomplishes what she sets out to do, the world may yet by her means be relieved from the plague of philosophy which has afflicted it for Louis Poet-Dispatch. Harriet Hoamer.

At a luncheon given 4n her honor at her native place, Watertown, and it is worth recording that it was the Woman's club of the place that originated the idea of a reception by the residents to their distinguished townswoman at this late day. of her fame Miss Harriet Hosmer said in answer to her introduction "I cannot fail to appreciate the courtesy you have shown me today, but as I stand here the days are brought back to my mind when I was not considered an ornament to society. Indeed as I mention the fact myself it seems as if I could see many before me who are prepared to bear witness to the fact. "I have been many times asked about my girlhood days in Watertown and the mad pranks I used to play. I have been asked if it was true that I was expelled from school, if I was nearly killed on a handcar which I started myself, if I was nearly drowned in Fresh pond in my own sailboat, if I really climbed through the great wooden which stand in front of the town hall, getting through by that sheer pluck which has carried me through life.

To all these I answer, 'Yes. 1 I was not expelled once, but three times. "Indeed I am not ashamed of my early pranks, and the 'happiest days I have are when I think of the days spent in Watertowu and I laugh at the jokes I played on the good people of the town jokes which amuse me more now than they did others then, I fear. "I have been led by my destiny far from home, and for more than 40 years have lived on foreign shores, but each year the old home becomes more dear to me and I become more and more convinced that the place where one in born is the only place one can really love." A Beautiful Wedding Present. One of this season's brides received on her wedding day the completion of a set of dinner napery that began to be hers some time ago.

On her sixth birthday an aunt, whose hobby was table linen, gave her a beautiful dinner napkin. It was of heavy fine eatin damask, as handsome as could be got, and the initial of her surname was embroidered upon it. Each succeeding birthday brought her a corresponding one, till the dozen was completed two years ago. "When you are married, you shall have the cloth," said the aunt, and she got it, owning now a set of which a princess might be York Times. Fletnre Costumes.

At a recent reception in a Paris salon the hostess requested each guest to come in a gown or costume which should be the wearer's idea of what should be fashionable. Nearly all of the grandes dames present appeared in "picture" costumes, such as Marie Antoinette, La Pompadour, Duchess of Devonshire or Gainsborough, and now it is quite likely that in 1896 "picture" costumes in America will be the fashion at country house fetes, watering places, festivals and the like, even if some of the "picture" effects do not appear upon the promenade. They Found a Way. Some of the women of Allegan have determined to have a kindergarten. The school directors would not establish one in connection with the public schools, so the women appealed to charity and secured enough money to hire a teacher and rent a room.

The room was not nice enough to suit them, so they papered and painted it, and it is said they did their own carpenter work. There was not a man on the job. These are all new (Mich.) Dispatch.

nt Germunv rocfltttlv Raid The Sophomores Were Whipped. The girl students at Lake Forest col- Illinois, made up their minds that they would introduce some of the lively practices which they had heard were in vogue in our eastern institutions of learning. So when a company of fresh students appeared on the scene last week the sophomores set out to toss the newcomers in blankets, feed them on pap, put them to bed and sing them to sleep. The hour fixed upon was Saturday night, when the "freshies" were ou their way to bed. They had all reached one end oi the hall when twice their number of sophomores appeared at the opposite end, which curdled the blood in the 20 freshmen's hearts.

They were armed with pillows, and they marched down on the cowering enemy, determined to capture them. But the freshmen mastered np spunk before the sophomores were upon them and fought for their lives. In tho thick of the scrimmage half a dozen freshmen made a flank movement and came dowi on the enemy in the Apanioseizec the sophomores, and a moment later hal of them were captives' and were beini the treatment they had designed No Precedent. During a session of the territorial legislature of Montana, held more than 80 years ago, a measure was introduced which appeared to some people to involve serious constitutional questions. One man, who was supposed to possess great oratorical powers, declaimed flerce- against the measure, claiming that it was "clearly in opposition to the great principles of Magna Charta, which the barons in days of old had wrested rom King John, a blessed result of a bloody A lawyer, more famed for his sturdy common sense than for erudition, rose mmediately to reply to this burst of fiery eloquence, evidently bent on mak- ng it clear that he for one was not to je overcome by high sounding words or obscure allusions.

"It's of mighty little importance what the opinions of King John and his man McCaitby were," he announced Irmly, adding that it was high time for legislative bodies of Montana to think and act for themselves without any refer- ince to the principles which governed the remote authorities quoted by his colleague. The first orator's speech had made some impression, but the retort was received with the enthusiasm which it deserved, and it was owing to his influence rather than that of his more brilliant predecessor that the measure was Companion. She Tried to Prevent the Execution ol the Duo d'Enghlcn. Mme. Bonaparte learned with intense sorrow of the determination taken by her husband.

In the main his measures and his convictions had been kept a secret, but she confided both to Mme. De Remusat, and the first consul himself had told them to Joseph. On the 20th the decree for the duke's imprisonment and trial was dictated by the first consul from the Tuileries, and in the early afternoon he returned to Malmaison, where at 8 o'clock Joseph found him strolling in the park, conversing with Talleyrand, who limped clong at his side. "I'm afraid of that cripple," was Josephine's greeting to her brother-in- law. "Interrupt this long talk if you can." The mediation of the elder brother was kindly and skillful, and for a time the first consul seemed softened by the memories of his own and his brother's boyhood, among which came and went the figure of the Prince of Conde.

But other feelings prevailed. The brothers had differed about Lucien'a marriage and the question of descent if the consular power should become hereditary. The old coolness finally settled down and chilled the last hopes in the tender hearted advocates for clemency. To Josephine's tearful entreaties for mercy her husband replied: Go away. You're a child.

You don't understand public duties." By 5 it was known that the duke had arrived at Vincennes, and at once Savary was dispatched to the city for orders from Murat, the military commandant. On his arrival at Mnrat's office, from which Talleyrand was in the very act of departing, he was informed that the court martial was already convened, and that it would be his duty to guard the prisoner and execute whatever sentence "Life of Napoleon," by Professor William M.
