WOMEN OF PROGRESS.
LD A BIG
THEY AREGOINGHG
TO H
JUBILATION SOON.
The Object Is the Celebration of the
Fortieth Anniversary of the First Step
Taken Toward the ICstabllshnneat of
W au Suffrage.
After forty years of agitation the "ad-
vanced womeno, celebrate the
propose to
formal beginning of ,their organization by
an international council at Washington city,
to begin March 25, and continue eight days.
If the programme announced is carried
out it will be the most peculiar and interest-
ing congress of women since that celebrated
eenate.of Roman ladies which, in the (,lays of
-,lie e' plre a worst corruption, used to ' meet
and fix the fashions and etiquettes. This coun-
cil, however, promises us many good things
—nothing less than a general overhauling of
social, moral, domestic, political and eleetuos-
ywry institutions, with ti view to making
woman's influence therein more direct and
powerful. Literary clubs, art unions, tem-
perance onions, labor leagues, missionary
and moral purity societies, charitable, edu-
cational and industrial associations, in short,.
ail sorts of combinations in which women
work, are invtited to be present by delegates,
and many have already named their repre-
sentatives.
We are promised that the taleuted women
of the world will be there—Mesdames Mary
A. Livermore, Lucy + Stone Julia Ward
Howe and Caroline Buell, with Misses Fran-
cis Willard, Mary F. Eastman, Clara Bar-
ton, Susan B. Anthony and many others frim
the United States; Miss Helen Taylor, step-
daughter of John Stuart Mill: Miss Henri-
etta Muller, of the London school board;
Miss Alice Scatcherd and others from Eng-
land; Mute. Isabella Bagetot, of Paris; Pun-
dita (Professor•ess) a:amebae, of India, and
representatives from other nations. Helen

tobut will come, '•]end a hand." Fanny
Zampini Salazar( (whether Miss or Madame
her letter does not hint), editor of "The Re-
view of Women's Interests," in Rome, will
send a paper to be read, and so will learned
literary ladies of Germany and elsewhere.
Indeed, as a literary treat purely, the coun-
cil will be well worth attending.
This council will be a sort of forty year
jubilee for the first regular organization of
woman suffrage, which was perfected at a
convention held at Seneca Falls, N. Y., in
1848. At the start it was closely identified
with the movement for the abolition of
slavery, and the master spirits then were
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Amelia Bloomer,
Mrs. Stebbins and Frederick Douglass; but
since the colored man has become a voter
Mr. Douglass is very skeptical, if not an op-
ponent, of Making the colored women voters.
At any rate he is willing to wait until there;
is much more general information -among
them. This combination of radicals of all
sorts gave the movement a bad start; the
great army of the queer and crazy rushed
into it, and for near twenty years the woman
suffragists were heard only to be laughed at.
But as the agitators were a}S.e to point out
evident wrongs in the hews of many states,
these were generally reformed and the prop-
erty rights of women well secured.. In the
state of Indiana, Hon. Robert Dale Owen, a
•pronounced woman suffragist., introduced
into the legislature and secured the passage
of the celebrated statute on descent and dis-
tribution of property, which, with. other
laws secured by him, put Indiana at the head
of allstates the sta e in laws favorable to women.
Several other states have since adopted simi-
lar measures. Other early advocates of
"t9 rights" Oman's t r„lttsa were Lucretia Mott,
Paulinu Wright Davis, Ernestine L. Rose,
Frances 1). Gage and Sarah dal ah Tyndale. In
1851 Susan B. Anthony presided aver a con-
vention at Syracuse, N. Y., and in 18ti3- ille
organized the "Loyal Woman's League."
The close of the war and the enfranchise-
ment e of the negroes seemed to leave t
g heo
P I}
tiler mind in a receptive condition never
known before or since. All sorts of reforms
were urged with wonderful ability and zeal;
people seemed afraid to oppose anything lest
they might find themselves in the position of
those who bad opposed emancipation, and
for a few years woman suffrage made won-
derful progress. The National Woman Suf-
frage association was thoroughly organized,
and now has branch organizations in almost
every state. Among the most active in it
are Mary A, Livermore, .Julia Ward Howe,
Laura Curtis Bullard, Lillie Devereaux
Blake, Ellen C. Sargent and Jane Graham
Jones. As might have •been expected, the
first substantial victories were gained in the
' far west, where pioneers were laying the
foundation at our''minunities on more lib-
eral principles.
The proposition to make woolen voters and
jurors was introduced into the legislature of
Wyoming territory. "just for a joke," as the
projector says; but it was gravely argued
that the measure would "advertise the
country and attract immigration," so it was
adopted and became law Dec. 10, 1869. Two
ladies were eimeen justices of the peace and
three or four juries empaneled with women
as jurors; but the practical inconvenience
'was found to be so great that the experiment
was quietly discontinued. A few years later
the legislature repealed the law, but the gov-
ernor vetoed the repeal, and there lacked a
few votes of the needed two-thirds to pass it
over his veto. As the adult white women of
Wyoming number but a few hue(►eds, and
are outnumbered three or four to one by the
men, not much ran hr dednrecf from the ex-
periment.
Early in 1869 Hon. James Ashley proposed
in the congress of the United Staten to make
the women of Utah voters, so that they
alight abolish polygamy. The Mormons
promptly took up the matter, and at the next
legislature1870
e of t,ho territorial
cxsion( )
conferred the suffrage on all adult women
and all n,a, rievl to atittits, regardless of nge,
partly to turn the tables on the statesman,
but more to double their vete against the
Gentiles, who were getting numerous in cer-
tain cenntiee. As the Gentiles were largely
miners, with terry few women, the policy
was a sueeese. A foreign horn Woman mar.
Tied tea native a$ nat'nralizcd citizen is held
to be naturalized; so the unique spectacle is
often presented of a Danish, Swedish or Eng,
fish girl of l5 or 10 years voting within a few
months after reaching the territory. The
Mormon women invariably vote the ticket
prepared for them by the church; so we can-
not fairly draw any conclusions from the ex-
periment• a modified in Utah

suf-
frage has been conferred upon the women of
Washington territory, but the legal construc-
tion of the law is still in dispute.
Lr Iowa the amendment, for female suf-
frage was adopted by the house iu 1870, and
was defeated by a very small majority in the
that state, as in several others,
but in
women can hold various school offices. In
Kansas they can vote at school meetings and
Argonia of that state has a woman Mayor.
In other states and territories they have
some political powers, too numerous and
varied to detail. •
.11 while a worulerftil revolution has
to t lace -at Washington. In the heat of
the eivil war women were appointed to clerk-
ships, and the system grew so rapidly that
they now greatly outnumber male enc nes in
many divisions, especially in time treasury '
department. Almost every state now em-
ploys women as clerks, and many large post -
offices; they ere eligible as clerks of legisla-
tures, state librarians, and'4n'-'many charit-
able and educational boards. Butene to the
simple matter of voting, there seems to be no
progress to compare with that which was
noticeable in the five years following the -
war.
In France more women are employed in
responsible and public places, especially as
cashiers and clerks, than in any other coun-
try: o
yet there is Mt demand for the ballot,
n
and they are profoundly indifferent to all
appeals on the subject. In Germany, every-
thing is subordinated,,«s--the military spirit.
"The drudgery is done by women and don-
keys; men and horses are saved for -tear,"
says one satirist. There is little or no inter-
est in the ballot. Df Russia, the most desper-
ate Nihilists an, women; but in that ismetry
reform is treated as treason. In Switzer-
land, Italy anti the northern countries of Eu-
rope, there is freedom of discussion, and
feeble movements for the advancement of
women. In England,' however, the cause
has advanced slowly and re^_plarly for
nearly a century. Mary Wollstonecraft pub-
lished her noted work in 17:11, and Frances
Wright disseminated the same views in the
United States. Jolla Stuart Mill elevated
the discussion to a higher plane, and the
laws have steadily improved in favor of
women. In parliament a two-fifths vote for
woman suffrage has repeatedly been ob-
tained. Un the last occasion the vote stood
tt9 against 15':. In conclusion it may be
said that the ladies who will meet at Wash-
ington have much in recent history to en-
'ourage them but history shows the curious
fact that woman's rights advance for long
eta awl then recede. Itan unquestionable
tact that the women of Homer's day enjoyed
more freedom than the Greek women of St.
Paul's time, and as much as Greek women de
tiaday. The same may be said of Roman and
Italian women, while the German women of
'racitus were certainly nearer equal to their
hu,bauds than those of 1888.

Recent changes in the deputed governors
of British colonies remove Lord Dufferin, a
fanner governor general of Canada, from
Lydia, and place Lord Lansdowne, the
present governor general of Canada, in his
place. The Right Hon. Frederick Arthur
Stanley will take Lansdowne's place. The
only one of the kraghts who is moved off the
viceroyal chessboard is Lord Dulerin. He

PAUL. DU CHAILLU.
The Famous Writer and Traveler Who
is Reported Seriously 111.
The world possibly owes the existence of
the valuable work of Paul du Chaillu (whose
illness was recently announced) to the fact
that his father was appointed, many years
ago, to a consulate on a French settlement at
the Gaboon, n the mouth of ab , o west coast
of Africa.
Paul was born in Paris in 1835. He studied
at one of the Jesuit institutions in Africa,
acquiring a knowledge of the native lan-
guages, tradingexpedi-
tions

tions much of the habits and mode of life of
the people. At the age of 17 he visited the
United States with
a cargo of ebony
and became natu-
ralized, remaining

The Brooklyn Disaster.
Another contractor has been careleee at the
cost of a number of lives, This time the
disaster was iu Brooklyn. N. Y.. where, by
the falling of a section of elevated railro.d
trestle and the heavy derrick and boiler
resting thereon, a loaded street car was
crushed. The details of the accident are al-
ready familiar, We may devote a litre or
two, however, to the demand, which is he

specimens of natural history, including 2,000

pared himself. lie set out on another expo=
dition in 1864, and penetrated among tribes
unknown; but, comingin conflict
previously
with the natives, he was obliged to return
without any specimens in September of the
following year.
It is especially to Du Chaillu that we are
indebted for information concerning the
habits of the gorilla, that interesting animal
who walks through the African forest on
two legs like a man, and whose strength
woul3pu t a modern cannon ball man in a
circus to the blush.
M, du Chaillu, on the occasion of one of
his visits to London, was lionized by the
great men of England. His collection of
curiosities was deposited in the rooms of the
sltoyal Geographical society, and excited a
good deal of attention, drawing visit% front
personages personally unknown to one who
had spent so much time in eenpaas'-ieitb-the
chimpanzee and the gorilla. He had heard
of the Duke of 'Argyll and of Gladstone;
possibly the Bishop of Oxford, but did nut
know that this bishop has long been accus-
tomed to sign himself "Oxon." The three
magnates wrote Du Chaillu on the same day.
The complications which ensued are so well
told in London "Court Fungi' that its story
thereof is hero "lifted" bodily:
Mr. Gladstone worded his letter in the
usual way, inviting M. du Chaillu to
Argyll hrrnkfast. The Duke, of Grayl ,,rote sub-
stantially as follows:
The Duke of Argyll presents his compliments
to M. da Chaillu. and begs to fufurin hirn that be
will visit his collection at 8:50 on Thursday next,
The bishop wrote:
DEA1 Sit—Will you do me the favor of lunch-
ing with me at 55 J— street, on the —th (a day
previous to that mentioned in Sir. Uladstoue's
I t t �
r o
00:e.) Yours truly,. Oxox.
M. du Chaillu answered Mr. Gladstone's
invitation, accepting it. But, not being fa-
miliar with ducal and episcopal ways, he did
not understand the second and third notes.
The former, indeed, he seems to have rather
resented, for he replied as follows:
M. du Ohailln presents his compliments to the
Duke of Argyll, and begs to inform him that his
collection at the rooms of the Royal Geographical
society is open to the public at large. Should his
grace present himself he will, doubtless, be
courteously received by the officials in attendance.
The bishop's note was, however, a hopeless
d
poser; M. du Chaillu had never hcard of any
public man of the name of Oxon. So a happy
thought struck him. Before answering the
note, he would reconnoiter the house that the
writer dated from. So he proceeded to 55
J— street, and, perceiving in the dingy
window of the first floor evidences that a
tailor practiced his art there, made no fur-
ther' inquiry. It never occurred. to him as
possible that a public personage might have
rooms above a tailor's shop in a good local-
ity. He did not even pause to compare the
tailor's name with the signature at the bot-
tom of the. note. The whole thing was clear.
Oxon was a "vulgar tradesman," who, pre-
suming on his wealth, had written him. Such
a fellow deserved no answer, and none was
given. M. du Chaillu duly appeared at lfr.
Gladstone's house on the morning mentioned
in the note of invitation, and there met a ells-
' tinguished cahpany. He mentioned to his
host that he had received a note from
the Duke of Argyll, and described its
tenor. Mr. Gladstone, then-„ in the
same political boat with the Duke of
'Argyll;
begged M. du Chaillu to excuse any
apparent "superiority" in his grace's epistol-
ary style, on the ground that he "had not
received a public school education:" Among
the company whom M. du Chaillu met at Mr.
Gladstone's was the bishop of Oxford, and he
found him the most urbane of gentlemen and
most delightful of companions. As they
were leaving together ether the bishop said:
"My dear sir, why did you not come to
lunch with me the other day? Lord Elgin
was there, and some other men I think you
would have liked to meet. From your not
answering my note, I made SUIT you were
coming."
`•But I received no note front your lord-
ship."
"That's very odd; I posted the note myself
on Monday night. You ought to have had it
On Tuesday morning."
"I received no note from your lordship. but ,
I did get an invitation to lunch from an im-
pertinent tailor called Oxon, whoni 1 never
saw in my life, and never was intro- I
dnced to."
"WOO, mV dear sir, why Vest moi:"
"But. your lordship's name is not Oxon, lilt
Wilberforce." '
"But my see, my see:"

PEACEABLE RUSSIA.
An Odd Way to Demonstrate Her Harm-

If a doubt still lingers in the mind of some
as to the hostile intentions of Rgssia toward
her western neighbors, it must certainly
have been dispelled bythe latest est re orts,

real attitude, notwithstanding its periodic

t
that she has recently erected fortifications
and built strategic railroads on a scale not

peace loving power she would like to be con-

forcibly we give here a map, showing the
railroads which Russia now possesses in the
provinces front which an invasion would
probably lie attempted; also the importrnt
fortified places that in the event of war
would serve the purpose of defense, as well as
furnish a basis for military operations. In
this place we might state that that )tart of
Russian territory does by no means require
so many railroads, except for purposes of
strategy, since extensive tracts of it ma un-

Several years ago, Janies Ilirthard, of
Darien, Conn., was severely ill. The
doctors said he was in Consumption,
and that they could do nothing for him,
but advised him, as a last resort, to try
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. After taking
this medicine, two or three months, he
was pronounced a well man. His !malt In
remains good to the present day.
.T. S. Bradley, Malden, Mass„ writes :
" Three winters ago I took a severe cold,
which rapidly developed into Bronchitis
and Consumption. i was HO weak that
I could not sit lip, was much emaciated,
and coughed incessantly. I consulted
several doctors, but they were power-
less, and all agreed that I was in Con-
snmption. At last, a friend brought me
a bottle of .-Ayer's Cherry Pectoral,
Prom the iflrit dose, I found relief.
Two bottles cured me, and my health
has since been perfect."
