Mark Twain said to a fr'.ond the oth

ma'am?"
A day or two before tho New England

1 would not like M ss Davis or any oth

sex is held in such esteem Ihcrj that
our Northern brethren appear rude in
relation to women by comparison. No
further south than Virginia you will
see every man in a public couveyanco
rise at the entrauco of a lady in order
to give her not a seat merely, but her
choice of all tho seats, and in a little
town near the lilun Mounta;ns, on tho
Norfolk and Western Railroad, while
Gov. Filzhugh Leo anil myself were

HANGING FOR WOMEN.
An IntcrcitliiR diopter on tlio Kxcco
tlon of Females.
NUW YOUK STATK.
Tho question of capital punishment
for women is ono which is attracting
considerable attention just, nt present.
There has always been a certain class
of Foeety in favor of discriminating
between murder by a man and murder
by a woman. Tho recent reprieve of
Mrs. Rovalana Dnwe, of Herk!mer
rounty. Now York, by Governor Hill,
has again precip. fated tho discussion on
the subject, and tho New York Hord
has compiled nceounts of the execution
of femnles throughout tho United
States.
Tho case of Mrs. Annaletto Haight,
whose death senteneo was commuted to
imprisonment for life, is referred to as
a parallel to the Druse case.
Previous to tho Ilaight case the lirst
case of tlio character named is that of
Mrs. Mary, alias "Polly," Fiwch, of
Genesee county, who was sentenced to
death for po soiling her husband and
two children.
oiiio.
So far as tho available records of
Oh'o show there never was but one
woman judicially executed in tho Stato.
and that was a colored woman named
Esther Ciark. a prisoner in tho Ohio
Penitentiary who killed a white woman
prisoner, and was publicly executed in
the city of Columbus on tho ilth of
February, 1811. Tho fact that sho was
a nejrro, and her victim white, blended
public opinion. Otherw'se it would
have bo mi enlisted in behalf of her
sex. She was executed on tho same
gallows with a wh to man, also a pris
oner, who. the next dav after tho
woman's or me, murdered li s keeper.
There havo been less than half a dozen
co:i ict ons of women for murder in
the liisl degree in Ohio since its organ
ization as a State, and none, with tlio
above exception, paid tho death penal
ty, public opinion compelling sontunco
to imprisonment. Probably tho last
conviction of a woman for murder in
flic lirst. d5greo in tho Stato w'as that of
Mrs. Sarah M. Victor, of Cleveland,
who was found guily. on purely o rcum
stautial evidence, of having poisoned
her brother to secure $2,000 life in
surance pol cy made payable to her
self. She was sentenced to bo hanged,
but public sentiment was so strong
that tho Governor commuted tho
sentence to 1 le iiiipr'soiiiniMit, and tho
same sentiment demanded her pardon,
which Governor Foraker granted.
im:n'nsvi.va.via.
Tho law of Pennsylvania does not
'iialto a disl'uct on in tho punishment
of murder on account, of sax, and but
three years ago a woman named Catha
rine Miller and her accomplice. Georgo
Smith, were hanged at Willianisport, in
that state, for tho murder of Mrs. M 1
ler's husband. Smith beat M Her to
deatli and Mrs. Miller simply furnished
the ropo with which to string tho dead
man up, so as to create tho impression
that he had committed Miicido. In tics
case Governor Pattison refused to in
tarfere. Tho proof was clearly estab
lished that Mrs. Miller and SniHh had
plotted to kill tho woman's husband,
anil tho doalh warrant was issued with
out opposition. Tho execution was n
notable one. Mrs. Miller screamed
like a mad person as sho was carried to
tho callows.
A few months ago Aunlo Culler, a
young colored girl, shot her betrayer
in Philadelphia, for which ououso sho
was sentenced to life imprisonment.
An application for a commutation of
senteneo was m ule to the pardon board,
and that body commuted the senteneo
to ono of eight years.
CONNKCTICIVT.
Tho only similar case in tho stato of
Connecticut to that of Mrs. Druso was
that of Ldia Shermnn, who po soiled
two or three htiibands and several chil
dren, several jours ago. Sho had her
sentence commuted by tlio legislature
to state prison for life.
As far as can he ascertained hero
Uieio has not been a woman hanged
in that stato s'.nco colonial days. Tho
custom seems to have been of lato yearn
for juries to convict women of murder
in tlio second degreo and send thorn to
stato prison for 1 fe.
JIAItVI.ANI).
Precedents arc raro in Maryland of
tho conviction, nnd even the trial, of a
woman for murder. Tho only convic
tion and execution of a woman, within
recent fines, was that of Mary Naylor,
an intelligent negro slave in Anno
Aruiidiil county; execution in I8G1 for
tho poUonlngof her master, a Mr. Can.
The penalty for murder in the first do
groo in Maryland is hanging, and wo
men tire not excepted in the law. Pub
l.o sunt muiit sustains the statute.
ll.UNOM,
Under the laws of Illinois men and
women aro alike Mihjoct to tho pun mIi
mont of death for niurdiir. It is not
rcmcnilci'ud by Governor Ogleab,, or
nny other stato offic'nl, that a woman
was evor hanged in Ulino s. Wh lo tho
laws niako no distinction as to sex, pub
lic sentiment in that stato is opposed to
tho hanging of women. The only ease
similar to tho Druso murder is that of
a woman who deliberately murdered
her husband about ten years ago in
Kankakeo county, in this state, in con
sequence of cruel treatment. Sho was
tried and sent to tho penitentiary for
life.
LOUISIANA.
The criminal annals of -Louisiana pro
sent no exact parallel to the. Druse case.
Women havo been tr.od for murder
here, but public sontiment is so strong
ly opposed to their execution that thoro
has been but ono occasion for appeal
ing to tho pardoning power in recent
years. Under the Louisiana laws a ju
ry, in a case involving l.fe, can bring
in o tlier a simple voi d ct of "guilty,"
or ono guilty without capital punish
ment." Missoriti.
No woman lias evor boon hanged in
Missouri. A few havo received tlio
death-sentence, but tho governor or tlio
supremo court lias always interfered in
time to prevent tho execution.
CKOItUIA.
As a matter of fact, tho first person
ever liango I in tho stato of Georgia was
a woman. Tho details of tho crime and
tho history of tlio case havo been lost,
and all that remains is tlio oak tree up
on which sho had boon hanged in 1701,
and that her name was Polly. It was
not unt.l 1872 that tho question of hang
ing a woman became a stato matter.
In tho Apr 1 of that year tho neighbors
of John Spann, of Webster county, no
ticing that tho house remained closed
all day, burst open tho door and found
Mr--. Spun strangled to death, with
marks of unmentionable tortures upon
her body. Her husband wan missing
as well as a young and pretty girl, who
had been living in tho fain ly, named
Susan Eborhardt. After six days' pur
suit with bloodhounds tho pair wero
found together in Heard county, on tho
Alabama line. Tho story developed was
that Spann had forniod rolallons with
tho girl. On tho night of tho murder
Mrs. Spann discovered tho intimacy
and tho enraged husband pushed her
back in her bed, having a firm grip on
her throat, while Misr, Eborhardt, at
his command, handed him a pillow
sl.p, which ho rammed down his wife's
throat until sho was dead. Tho pair
were put on trial, convicted and sen
tenced to bo hanged. Senteneo was at
at once executed upon Spann, but tho
case of Susan Eborhardt became a mat
ter of stato concern.
When tho day of execution arrived
lira ollicers postponed action until tho
last in nute, expecting oven then a re
prieve As Susan stood with the black
cap on her head men wero sent up tho
road to catch a glimpse, if possible, of
tho expected messenger with a reprieve,
and to wave b.iek, if seen, tho signal of
rescue. Rut no relief camo nnd the de
luded woman pa d tho penalty of her
crime. To this day Governor Smith's
action is hold up against him.
As a conseqiionco of this agitation
tho public mind was prepared to take
prompt act on in 1878. when tho news
of Kate Sotliern's crime was made pub
lic. Tho public determination .vas that
sho should not hang, and she did not.
Sinco that lime it lias been impossible
to convict a woman of murder in Geor
gia. INDIANA.
Not ono hns over been hnnaod in tlio
Stale, or has any .boon sentenced to
death.
MAINE.
No woman has ever beon hanged,
although Mrs. Harrows, of Kittory, is
now under senteneo of death, and great
exertions aro being made in hor behalf.
She has a ropr.evo until next August.

DKI.AWAUB.
Thoro never was a woman hanged in
Delaware. No woman was over con

as men, being sentenced to imprison

A JAPANESETEA HOUSE.
One warm morn tig in .Inly, I slool
in front of one of these .!apnnei' tea
Iioum's, about to outer. Situated iu one
of the many parks which adorn Tokio.
is rated as the very bot and tho swell
est." in the c ty. It :. patronized by
tho upper crust, of Japanese soe'ety,
and ha- a theatre aitachod, where an
ancient Japanese dauco can ho seen
occns'onalli .
The sliding doors wero thrown open,
revealing the reeppt on room, wherein
stood three or four tiny Japanese girls,
the. r jet black hair moulded into fan
tastieshapes with grouse and bandolino,
their eyebrows shaved, their lips paint
ed red. and their dainty little forms
arrayed in dazzling pimonas or loose
Mowing robes wh'ch failed to conceal
their gracful necks. Those aro tho
tea-houso girls of Japan, bewitching,
cunning and dangerously picturesque!
It is these pretty creatures which makes
Japan so attractive lo foreigners.
Wo started to outer without cere
mony, as one would outer a restaurant
Hut wo could not havo committed a
greater or more unpardonable sin. My
'ricksha man, grinning from ear to oar.
pointed to my hat. I took it oil' and
bowed politely, whereupon tho young
ladios tittered and looked at each other.
Unconccrted, however, I started again
to outer, but was hold back by my
grinning 'ricksha man. who pointed to
my shoos, and grunted out soinothing
which sounded like No sit ng moo
poo. I took tho hint and took off my
shoos, keeping my feet bonealh me to
conceal tho holes in my lioso until a
girl brought mo a pair of Japanese
slippers, which you know have no
heels. Did you evor try to keop on a
pair of slippers without anything to
hold your heels in? Try it once. Ex
pod tiously 1 shoved my toes into tho
slippers, and git ded by tho shy and
smirking females, began my inspection
of tho toa houses.
Tho first thlnir wo saw. as wo step
ped upon tho matting of the small,
empty reception room was a row of
Japanese girls, of various shades of
beauty on thoir knees, bowing thoir
heads to tho lloor. Wo answered tho
salute by bowing, but not on our
knees.
"Ohio," (good morning), said ono of
tho prettiest girls, advancing.
"Ohio," I boldly respondod. Hut
hero my knowledge of Jap.tncso ended
nnd my embarrassment began. I could
not speak Japanese and tho young lady
addressing us could not speak English,
but of course sho knew what wo wero
thero for, and immediately began to
conduct us through tho sovoral rooms
of tho house.
Simpl city nnd plainness aro tho fea
tures of tho interior of an ideal Japan
ese lea house. Tho rooms tiro low and
finished In natural uiipaiuted ami un
varnished wood, savo hero or thoro a
lacquer wood door frames or panel.
On tho lloor is a straw mutt ng, but no
table or chairs of any description. Tlio
walls aro usually without pictures or
ornaments, and neither stovo nor fire
place is scon. In short, the room wo
wero linally conducted lo was a model
of bareness ami simplicity. Some of
the private loa rooms overhead, how
over, woro finished throughout in lao
quor wood, and hud lacquer lloors,
shining liko pol shed mirrors.
Of course when ono enters a lc
house lie is expected to take refresh
ments. Selecting tho best of those un
inviting rooms overlooking tho lawn,
wo called for c.hu;n, which is Jnpancso
tea. Two little girls quickly respond
ed and placed before us tho usual re
freshments which a Japanese toa liouso
allbrds. Two little trays with t.ny tea
pots, dainty cups hoi Hit; hardly a gill,
nnd little saucers of sweetmeats rnada
of rlco and flour, worn placed beforo us.
No chairs woro offered us.so wo stretch
ed ourselves on the lloor. Our waiters,
without a word, poured tho steaming
fa into tho cups and olfured it to us.
Tho Japanese use no sugar nor milk in
tliulr toa. nnd dr nk only a small quan
tity at a time, sipping it slowly. Their
tea is very bitter, ami has a tdekouing
green sh-yellow color.
Willi n wry faee, wo sippod tlio toa
and nibbled the touh sweetmeats,
surely fooling, doubtless looking, very
foolish. It Is very embarrassing to sft
at a banquet" with proltv nnd g:yly
tlressed girls, and not bo able to speak
a word, but such was our situation.
Our attempts at Japanese caused tlio
greatest merriment, the simple tittering
reminding mu of tho throe little maids
from school" In "Mlkudo."
Some of the g'rls in these Japanese
ton houses understand Engl sli very
well. Indeed, when it is spoken badly
nnd mixed with Japanese. I sav badly,
for it is a curious fact that an English
man or American lu attempting to
make himself understood to a foreign
or, iiivarhiblv uses the worst kind of
English, probably beeauso he desires to
bo as brief as iioss.ble. Tun houses,
especially In okoliama, aro so fro.
quuntly visited bv English-speaking
people, that not only the language but
tho nanios of main of the v sltors art
kuowu to those attruutlvu glrli.
