That certainly is not true in
other lines of business, however it
may be in railroad rervice. Women
who began as stenographers in law
and commercial bouses and in the
service of city, state and Nation
are filliug higher positions, with
broader and more responfeiqle dut­
ies, in large numbers.
They be­
come private secretaries, clerks in
charge of correspondence, court
stenographers and librarians.
Not
a few of thorn conduct independ­
ent businesses, with staffs of sten­
ographers aud typewriters whom
they furnish to do work on call,
ami make net incomes of $4000 to
$7000 a year.
I t is a fact of current interest
that while in some other callings—
notably that of school teaching—
women arc paid much less than
men for the same sorvice, the
woman stenographer is paid as well
and sometimes better than a man
stenographer. I f she is expert and
has general aptitude for business,
apart from her stenography, she
often receives from $1200 to $2500
a year; as a court reporter one of
them at least in this city is known
to be paid tbe last Darned sum.
The Northwestern Railway’s curi­
ous ruling is a belated expression
of the old prejudice against the in­
dustrial equality of woman, which
is nevertheless almost extinct.—

Rich Gold Deposits Found in River
Bed.
Jacksonville, Or., Sept. 11—As
the result of construction of a dajn
across R ogue river near here to
conserve water for power purposes
a fabulously rich deposit of placer
gold has been discovered in tho
bed of the stream.
It is estimated
that $250,000 is in sight,
Alexander Orme, foreman of dam
construction, was the fiuder of the
gold bearing gravel.
He panned
out $100 worth in two and a half
hours, but as soou as the fact that
gold existed in the bar became
known the power company refused
to allow further mining operations.
Extensive preparations are being
made to work the property.

Sir Thomas Lipton says that

For Mercy's Sake.
A movement to establish a re.
treat in this city for homeless con­
sumptives is, it is said, about to he
inaugurated.
Sucli a project is
well worthy the consideration of a
generous and humane people. The
object, so far as it has been defined,
is not to treat consumptives in the
incipient stages with the hope of re-
storing them to health,
but to
furnish the pitiable victims of this
wasting malady who are homeless
and who have reached the in­
curable stage with a cheerful, quiet
comfortable home,
in which to
spend the short allotment of time
that is left to them.
The number of sufferers who
need a retreat of this kind in this
community is not large.
A small
home would be sufficient to accom­
modate them, and at present there
is literally no place where they can
go and receive the caro that their
condition demands.
Bacteriology,
in discovering and disclosing the
nature of consumption, has made
consumptives unwelcome
every­
where; whether ns patients in hos­
pitals and sanitariums or visitors at
health resorts they arc undesirable
if not forbidden guests.
Sensitive, weak, fading, without
hope of recovery, sufferers from
this disease have a strong claim up­
on huiran sympathy, especially so
when they must find shelter where
they can, unaided, and are depriv­
ed by circumstances of tbe care and
nourishment upon which such com­
fort ns may still attend them de­
pends.
The time will come when no
community can call itself civilized
and allow the victims of this piti­
fully lingering disease to drag out
their last days in dark, unsuitable
perhaps noisome lodgings,
be­
cause, either for pecuniary reasons
or from the fact that they are
shunned as infectious, they must
fake any room that they can get.
I f this matter is properly brought
before the public, with a feasible
plan upon which to work, there is
no doubt but tho financial aid nec­
essary to establish and maintain a
suitable retreat of a few rooms for
this class of sufferers can be secured.
It may be hoped, in the name of
common humanity, which includes
public safety, that the movement
will take practical shape and be
pushed to a successful issue.--Ore­
gonian.
National Fraternal Congress.
Milwaukee, W is.,—The national
fraternal congress, representing fiO
fraternal
insurance organizations
doing business in all parts of the
country, met in seventeenth an­
nual session with a good attendance
of delegates.
The annual reports
of President Joseph A. Longfill of
Pittsburg, Secretary M. W . Saek-
ett of Meadville, Pa., and of various
other officers and committees, show
that since the last sossion of the
congress much substantial progress
for the fraternal boneficiary sys­
tem has been mnde.
Several in­
surance departments
hnve an­
nounced that the examination of
the departments of the homo state
would be accepted by them; legis­
lation, exempting the reserve fund
of fraternal orders from taxation
has been secured in three states,
proposed laws detrimental to the
interests o f the fraternal compan­
ies have been defeated, and pro.
gress along many other lines has
been made.
