She was very glad that publicity was being given to the matter, for an unjust law applied to one woman affects indirectly all Women.

Mrs. Harriet T. Todd, secretary of the Mass. W. C.

T. had this to say upon the matter; Any law that i 13 not equally binding to men and women is unjust. Just fancy this case of Airs NVhite reversed, would such a decision stand? Miss C. M. Caswell of the Willard Settlement, a home for working girls, said that this certainly was a matter to enlist the sympathies and interest of all women, when a state law can stand that confines an accused woman without the privilege of a hearing.

Miss Caswell comes in contact with numbers of young working women, and said she was especially impressed with the injustices which they have to suffer and iom which there is no redress. She cited the numbers of young women who suffer from the effects of nicotine poison from working in places where there is continuous smoking. and tought there was need of legislation in the matter. Miss Fiske, a well-known Boston business woman. remarked that justice demanded that equal advantages should be shown men and women especially in times of Mrs Mary A.

Livermore Was approached upon the subject. and had this to say: "If I had been told that it was possible, in this age of the world. for a husband in Massachusetts to haye his wife arrested for habitual drunkenness and committed to an insane asylum, without notice and without a hearing. I would not have believed it. Especially, as the rights of a man in similar cases are carefully guarded, and he is taken into court.

given a hearing. and all needed legal protection. And yet, ac-, cording to Judge Morton, evidently a humane man, with a clear sense of justice. this is the law of our state. Have women all the rights they need? "It Is apparent from the testimony that poor Ails White needs restraint and wise and careful treatment.

But why should she be committed to an insane asylum, where no provision is made for such cases as hers, and where the moral and physical remedies demanded by her malady cannot well be afforded her? A man who is the victim of inebriety is sent to the Foxboro home for Dipsomaniacs, where the troatmeut is exclusively for that class of sufferers. There are asylums other than that at Foxboro, in this state, where Mrs White, could be placed, and where hygienic, sanitary and moral measures are employed that have resulted in recovery. Why should she be sentenced to the companionship of lunatics in an institution where she will have small chance for cure? The dictates of common humanity should lead to a change in this particular as speedily as possible. "If I am not mistaken Mrs White has a handsome little property of her own, and some of the papers have stated that while she is in durance it remains in her husband's possession. has the Suffolk probate court, which doomed her to an insane asylum, been careful to protect her property rights.

and to so guard her money that it shall not be squandered as recklessly as it would be if she had control of it? "It is a most hopeful and grateful sign that the press of the without exception. condemn the injustice done to Mrs White. and publishes Judge Morton's severe criticism of the law, which he Is obliged to obey. We are sure that the statutes will be purged of this injustice. now that they have so clearly revealed it to the courts, legislators and all who desire that law and justice 01811 become interchangeable terms.

"Let me ask what course is taken by wives who are so unfortunate as to have dipsomaniac husbands. and there are not a few of them in Alassachusetts? If they should procure their commitment to insane asylums, as the husband of Mrs White has been allowed to do in the case of his wife. the numerous buildings that shelter the insane colony at Medfield would have to be duplicated. and the sad populadon of that pretty town would be mightily increased. Ali.

there is a great differenee tween men and WOMerl. and husbands and wives, and I thank God for iti' Mrs Mary Morton ICthew, president of the Women's Educational and Industrial union of Itoston, said: "Owing to the pressure of Public School association business. I have been unable to investigate the case of Mrs White, and have therefore nothing to say for publication. It would seem, however. that if the Judge pronounced the statute under which she was convicted unjust.

some action should he taken in the matter. I should be glad to cooperate in any movement initiated by some other person. or your paper, for the woman's relief." Caroline J. Cook. attorney at law.

and are described as white. porous substances; they are employed for the cure of snake bite. When applied to the place where the reptile has bitten its victim, the stone is believed by the natives to draw the poison from the wound, after which the stone is left in a bath of milk, which withdraws the venom from the mineral, rendering it once more ready for use. It is a common belief that these stones originate in the head of a snake, and that they are hnalzwous to hone, but a more reasonable suggestion is that they consist of pumice. which to an uneducated eye would seem to possess the -structure of bone.

In Germany it is no uncommon thing for credulous persons to carry about with them small nu-'gets of gold, which tiley believe have the virtue of drawing cut from their bodies the evils induced by malignant influences. Sometimes a ptato is carried with the same lICt. and the belief in the virtue of the snake stone seems to be of the sate kind.

ILill 1 The conscience of the community has been shocked the past week by the fate of INIrs Etta A. White of Huntington ay, Boston, a woman possessing considerable personal property, who was ordered remanded to the Westboro Insane asylum as a dipsomaniac by Judge Morton of the supreme court. The court has denied the application of Mrs White for a writ of habeas corpus on the facts produced at. the hearing. The case Is one of the most remarkable that has been brought to the attention of the court in years.

Naturally It has attracted much attention, especially among the women of noston. One hears a great deal these. days about the equality of men and women, and perhaps the average Boston woman takes it quite for granted. While in story books she may have read of an unfortunate sane woman being ime prisoned in a mad house by her husband, the thought of such a. possibility in these boasted days of enlightenment seemed as remote as the witchcraft horrors.

Judge Morton is reported at having said in his decision: "As to the law. I was imprhssed at the outset as to the injustice of the law In commiting a man for dipsomania one way and a woman quite differently. I must take the however, as I find It. Tbe constitutionality of the law as to men has been established. I must overrule the requests for rulings.

I do not think the words habitual drunkard Instead of dipsomaniac in the commitment invalidates it. "I don't see how I can do anything but remand the petitioner, and I so order." Referring to the manner of her commitment. Judge Morton is quoted as saying: "The conduct of the officers who took her to the asylum is to be condemned, and I speak of it in the interest of other women who might be placed in her unfortunate situation. They should have treated her differently. They did not allow her to go to her home.

but gave her 20 minutes to get ready, else they would take her as she was. They treated her as a criminal. She was not a criminal, but a woman suffering from dipsomania. and she should have been treated quite differently." The question has been asked, are there not private institutions for receiving dipsomaniacs? And if so, why should Mrs White be sent to an Insane asylum? A prominent member of the Massachusetts Woman's Christian temperance union is authority for the statement that there are several private institutions beside the New England Home for Intemperate women founded by Mrs Cearplot, and supported by public generosity. The opinions expressed by representative Massachusetts women are of interest and call attention to other unjust laws affecting women in this state.

Miss Alice Stone Blackwell said: "It is clearly unfair that a woman who is suspected of being insane should not have the same opportunity as a man to prove herself sane, if she can; and this inequality in the law Is not the ony one to which women are subject. "In Massachusetts it Is literally true that a married mother, so long as she lives with her husband. has no more legal right to her own child than a cow has to its calf. The husband has the sole right to say how the child shall be treated, in what religion it shall be educated, and what shall be done with it in all respects. "The mother has legally no more voice in regard to her awn child than has in regard to the children of the emperor of China.

A farmer in Massachusetts had a child that was not quite full-witted. lie disliked the child and wanted to board it wit at the poor house. The mother, naturally, anted to keep it where it could be better cared for, but the law allewed her no voice. She wc; actually obliged to lerese her husband, and to aeply for a legal separation from him. which she did not want.

in order to keep her ahild from being boarded out at the poor farm. "A still worse case happened in an adjoining state, and might happen in Massachusetts today. A Chinaman married a respectable Irish woman. When their first baby was three days old the husband gave It to I is brother, to be taken away to China and brought up there. "The mother, thrmigh the Society for the Prevention of, Cruelty to Chilren, appealed to the courts.

The judge promptly decided that the husband was within life rights. He was the sole legal owner of the baby; he had the sole right to say what should be done wait it. The Massachusetts' association Opposed to the Extension of Suffrage to Women has published over its imprint a lea flet defending the law which gives the father the sohs guardianship cf the children. Massaehusetts suffragists have been asking for more than ao years to have the father and mother made joint guardians of their children by law, as they are by nature; but thus far without success. We are often told that bad laws can be changed.

'without the ballot, by indirect influence. "They can; but. it is a needlessly long and laborioas way. It recalls the Chinese conundrum: 'How long did it take the patientaold wernan of Singa- pore when she wanted a needle, to malce one by filing down a "Most men are so much tatter than the law that most women never find out how brut the law is. When a woman says, 'I have all the rights I what she really means is that 0-le haa a good husbandso good a husband that it does not matter to her personally whether she hae any legal rights or rot.

But, as the Bible says, 'the law is not for the just, but for the unjust not for the many man who are willing to treat their wives and families well without for the few who are inclined to be just as mean as the law will let them. And enfertunately, it will let them be very mean indeed." Miss M. O. Hill. prominently identified with the building committee of the Women's club house corporation, said that she had followed the case with Interest and thought It was lamentable FUN FOR THE SULTAN.

He Pays No Attention Request for Consul Ilarpoot Official Left Without Ills Exequatur from Forte. Mimic Thunders Have No Terrors for Him, He Has Heard So tlany. WASHINGTON, Nov 21The refusal of Turkey to grant an exequatur to Mr Norton, who has been commissioned consul at Harpoot, may lead to compli- cations with the Turkish government, annoying rathEr than serious, and tinged with a comical side, which always seems to be part and parcel of American or European diplomatic differences with the unspeakable Turk. Abdul Harnid having refused to recognize the right of this government to establish a consulate at Harpoot and give legality to the functions of consul Norton, the state department has instructed Mr Norton to open his office and act exactly as if he were a duly accredited consul and had been officially received by the Turkish government. It has generally been regarded as the inherent right of a government to refuse to receive a particular diplomatic or consular representative if the man named was not acceptable, although governments are not required to give reasons, and the mere intimation On their part that an official is distasteful I always regarded as amply sufficient to cauae another to be aent in his place.

But the refusal of a government to permit a friendly poaer to establish a consular office is a new question in international relations and would hardly have occurred to any one but the Sul-ton of Turkey or possibly the emperor of China. Exactly why the sultan should object to the establishment Of a consulate at liarpoot is not clear. It is true that that place has repeatedly been the scene of massacres and attacks cn American missionaries and college property, aad It is possale that the sultan may not wish to allow an American representative On the spot. lint his absence, after all, can make little, difference. Part of the claims whiah we now have against the Turk grow out of damages done to American property at Harpooa It is more likely that the Sultan's disinclination to permit the establishment el a consulate is due to the general objection which he has to the increase of consular offices in his dominion.

The European powers have had the same experience whenever they have attempted to enlarge their consular force. A consul cannot exercise his official functions until he has received his exequatur from the head of the state or the foreign minister. Cntil he has received that he is merely a private individual, and his carries no weight on official documents. Consuls have certain well-defined flinetiOnS, especially in regard to the clearance of 5111ps and the manifest of merchandise. Some of these flinetiOTIS are purely for the guidance, of American customs officials.

while others are the certificate of character of the nationality of the VeF-SC-1 asking clearance papers, and hich cannot be secured unless the tionality is certified to by the American consul. The refusal of the Turkish government to recognize Ala Norton officially may lead to embarrassing complications. His signature will of course be accepted by the American authorities in every case, but it would have no weight with Turkey. which may cause American merchants and travelers considerable annoyance. The rather annoying part of the whole matter is the knowledge that Turkey after all is in a position to ask the United States, What are you going to do about it? War of course Is out of the question.

Whie it is easy enough to talk about resprisals, it has been generally found that whenever any nation attempts to get the best of Turkey except by actual force the wily oriental comes cut on top. The, isit of the battleship Kentucky to Smyrna is with the hope that it may give Abdul Harold a little scare, but the sultan is too ease-hardened to be scared fg LU kick by Shay put the ball In midfild and from here by steady line Vdcking it was pushed over for a touchdown after IS minutes of play.

Much discussion is going on as to the fate of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, which will be pressed forward to action with the opening of congress. The fate of the treaty seems to depend entirely on the pressure which may be brought to bear in its favor by the president. If he is determined that the treaty shall be ratified, it is believed that his influence will be strong enough to secure the necessary votes. nut if he is merely lukewarm in its support, as has been intimated. and does not make personal appeals to senators, then it is not believed that the treaty can be ratified.

if the treaty should be ratified there is some question whether England would accept it with the amendment which has already been inserted by the senate. Both Sec Hay and Lord Pauncefote, who negotiated the treaty, regard the amendment as, detrimental and dangerous. and it has been asserted that the British government would refuse to accept any amendment and insist upon the treaty being ratified precisely as it was negotiated, or else be rejected. But this Is not true. Up to the present time the British government has made no comment on the proposed amendment, nor has it in any way indicated what its action would be in case of amendment.

It IS believed that unless the amendments should vii any affect the spirit of the treaty the British government would not seriously oppose them: A. Maurice Low. BILL WAS TOO SMART.

and then he got his trunk under him and flung him into a swamp and never even looked back at him. "We went down to see our bull, and he had tears in his eyes, a broken leg and one gone.
