A NEW CRUSADE BY WOMEN. lA Projrrt Tlmt Could Itt) AilriilititxeoUH. ly rullouiil In Kvcry City. Tho women of Now York, weary of cweepinir tho filthy streets of tho city (with their trailing skirts, havo risen in their majesty, organized themselves in a great street cleaning brigade and de clared war on tho dust scattering ash .barrel and the foot tripping banana. 'Mrs. Kinnicutt, wife of Dr. Kinnicutt, of Thirty -seventh street, and Mrs. Rich ard Irvitt are tho leaders of tho move ment, and havo been engaged for somo jtimo in perfecting their plan of attack, (which was first formally announced at the working girls' reunion .Monday night. It is the opinion of these women that tho much abused commissioner of street jcleaning and his aids aro no more to jblnmo for tho disgraceful condition of ,tho streets than aro tho careless lionse liohb'rs and pedestrians who thought lesIy add their mite of disorder to tho fcreat aggregation of dirt for which our fair island city has gained a world wido reputation. These ladies, together with Mrs. Gus jfcav Kissel. Miss Frolinghuysen and others tis directors, havo rented an office at 221! West Thirty-eighth street, hired a secre tary, and announced to tho mayor their intention of constituting themselves a .bureau of information, whero all com plaints relating to street nuisances may be received, ami rules and regulations tissued in accordance with tho city or dinances. ( As n Ix'ginning tho matter was pre sented by Mrs. Irvin to tho great assem bly of working girls, to each of which an envelope containing t wenty-fivo mem bership slips to this new society was given at tho door. There will bo no fees or dues of membership, but each person rngning tho slip promises to keep her own outdoor premi&es neat and orderly, to put her ashbarrel out in time for tlio fish man and not sooner, to avoid throw ing bits of paper or any refuse upon tho pavement, and above all to report any neglect of tho rules which sho sees any where in tho city. I 5n return for tlio signed pledgoof mem bership a card will bo sent prepared for hanging upon tho wall, and giving tho rules referred to above in (Jerinan or Italian as well us English, according to ,tho nationality of the member. Just at present tlio new society is oc cupied in obtaining and classifying their snembers according to tho districts in which they reside. Very influential people aro already included in tho mem bership, and very soon tho organized plans of work will bo published to tho .public and members. Associated with "tho women in this work are many of tlio most influential men in tho city, and all aro detiiiniined to havo Now York high ,wuyB and byways as neat, orderly and .beautiful as those of Paris or Berlin. In Paris, if a person thrown a torn let tor or anything disorderly upon tho pavement, ho is obliged to pick up tho litter or bo escorted by a gendarme to tho nearest police station to pay his tine. 3t is claimed by the Women's Street Cleaning Aid society th;:t tlio ordinances aro equally binding in Now York if eomo ono would enforce them. Now that the eyes of this great ariny of wom en aro looking out for tho offender, let him or her beware, for women aro good detectives and extremely conscientious in performing their duty, particularly when, us In this case, the name of tlio informer is carefully guarded from tho ones they inform against. Now York Bun. j A 1 1 linn I. Iltli) Wiiiiiiin. ! Miss Loio M. Uoyce, ono of tho heroic echool teachers of the western states (who came near losing their lives during the great blizzard of .Ian. 12, 1889, was suiarried Friday night in West Day City to Charles S. Thomas, a well known newspaper man. At tho time of tho great blizzard, Miss Jloyce, who was then eighteen years old, fwaa teaching in a country school near Plainviow, Neb. On tho day in question nho found three pupils at her school in tho morning. j During the day the storm increased in , fury, and at tho close of school tho teacher and the pupils wero uuablo to i Seavo tho building. Tltoy remained un til all of their fuel was iimmI up, and they vero becoming afraid they would freozo to death in their prison when, during a lull in tlio storm, tho teacher determined to make an effort to reach a house a few rods from the school building. Taking tho two youngest children by tho hand mid bidding the other to follow close be hind her, tlio teacher started out on what proved to bo a terrible journey. Hardly had they left the school building when tho storm again increased, and in a short time they had lost their way. After wandering about until all of tho party had become exhausted and could go no farther they laid down together. During the night two of ihr children died in the teacher's arms. In tho morn ing Miiw Hoyce, who was nearly frozen to death, succeoded in reaching a lioiiso, nud a party went out aftr tho one child, who was stt)l alive, but ho died in a fehort time after Wmg found. For n long time Mus Knyce'alifo was despaired of. Her limbs wero lmdly frozen, and after a fow days it was found necessary ' to amputate both feet, just above the fiuklo, .After mouths of Buffering, however, Wins recovered KiiftUiontly to liu taken to California, whoio she and hur parents pent mouths at Khvrido. During and iter her long IUiium MUm Hoyce was in receipt of many letters of nyiuiuithy from peoplo of nil imrts of tht country. 1'rwKjnts from uiiLiuwii penons were ptuuwoun, and offers of marriage wuro otUm found in hur cuinxpoiidunco.

Chicago Herald. Maiden vitoii- Matron. Some time and in somo fashion tho young tin wedded woman will be called npon to make a decided stand against the invasion of tho matron upon her siiecial province. There is scarcely place left now for the solo of her slipper be tween the schoolroom and strip of carjKjt before tho matrimonial altar. Sho is simply driven into a corner and told to marry at once or lay down her passport into realms of social gayety. This arro gance of tho married woman concerning her monopoly of society amusements is intolerable. Sho won't hear to having unpaired belles brought into competi tion with her attractions. If they chooso to cliimo it must bo with a conjugal clapper, and not as merry, independent tinklers, ringing a distracting little tuno of ununited friskmess. Girls are still permitted to havo de buts, but even on those great occasions the young matron steps in, and, by right of double blessedness, takes all the cakes and ale. Tlio shy, sweet miss is left to cut a poor figure indeed. And so on, from first to last, tho married woman opens tho ball, leads tho german, occu pies tho opera boxes, demands all the din ner invitations, fills tlio victoria, receives at the tea, thereby squeezing tho girl into such a small corner no one is ever able to find her behind madam's over crowded engagement book. Mrs. Burton Harrison has instituted a demand for tho restoration of tho Amer ican maiden as she existed before Euro pean customs came to smother her light under the bushel of an artificial society. Not many years ago Uncle Sam's virgin daughter was tho pride of the nation. Her girlish wit and independence, her innocent fearlessness, her jollity, shrewd ness nud beauty wero tho boast of the civilized world, and with impunity did sho set her proud feet on tlio hearts of mankind. Men admired and reverenced her, for here, they said, is a new order of women. Untrauinieled by tho obliga tions of wife and motherhood, she is free to accept our entire devotion; with tho discretion and knowledge of the matron she combines the freshness of a maiden. Heretofore this union was held to be impossible, and she has realized man's ideal. But, alas! whence has this clear eyed troddess of girlish liberty lied away; Illustrated American. A Wnniiill .Minle mi IikIIiiii. For the first lime in tho history of tho North American Indians a white wom an, Mrs. Harriet Maxwell Converse, has received the honor of a national adop tion by an Indian nation. Instances of "name giving" have not been infrequent among the Indians, tho "naming" being accompanied with considerable cere mony, and usually terminating with a feast. These ceremonies, however, aro purely complimentary, evidencing a feel ing of friendship for tho person "named" and appreciation for some act of kind ness. But this is tho first instance in In dian annals of a formal adoption of a white woman into an Indian community, to become an actual member of their nation, to be fully recognized as such and entitled to all tho privileges of one of tho blood. So tho legal admission into their na tion of Mrs. Converse, the poet and In dianologist, by the president and coun cillors of tho New York state Seneca In dians, and their recognition of her as one of their own people, is unique. Mrs. Converse has always defended tho rights of tho Indians of this state, anil sho ef fectively aided tho Indian delegation at Albany to oppose a bill before tho as sembly which, if carried as a Jaw, would havo deprived them of their lands. Tlio bill was killed in committee. Before the hearing of tho Indians by tho com mittee Mrs. Converse had been invited to sit in their Six Nations council, held at Albany, an honor never before be stowed upon a white woman save Mary .leuiison. This Six Nations, the most important of all the Indian councils, convenes only in cases of urgency and is representative of the rights of all tho Indians of tho league of tho Iroquois. When tho Seneca national council, in session at Carrollton, Cattaraugus coun ty, N, Y., in tho Allegany reservation, was called an application was laid be fore that body to tho effect that, "by love and affection" it was tho desire of the Indians that Mrs. Converse should bo received into their nation as a legal member of it. Upon this appeal u vote was taken, and it was unanimously re solved that she bo at once invited to ap Iear before tho council and receive her Indian name. New York Cor. Boston Advertiser. Sim Know Siiiimtlilut; About lionet. One of the few bright afternoons re cently enjoyed by New Yorkers served to bring out a brilliant array of proine nailers and equipages in Fifth avenue. Tlio drive was crowded with carriages, when one of a team of horses attached to u rattling, banging, lumbering Fifth avenue stage slipod and fell. As is usual in such common occurrences, tho falling animal served to entangle him self in his bariums in such a way that owry time ho struggled to arise ho was tripled and made to fall mjnln. Tho commotion caused a largo group of prouietiaders to gather at the spot, and there was tho usual amount of "guying" of tho driver by the bystanders. Tlio driver was a stupid fellow, and jwr sis ted in trying to make tho fallen ani mal rise to his feet. Among tho interested group of watch ers were two handsomely dressed women. One of thum became inipatiunt and irri tated at tho stupidity of the driver. "Clara, hold my muff," she said, as she handed the dainty bit of fur to hur com panion. Stepping from the curb, she quickly loosened the catch on tho chain scotiou of tho tracet of tho standi iifl lurso, and then unfaitonod the haine chain in front, leaving ono homo free. Thin siilHoioiitly cleared the entangle tnent to enable the fullwn horse to gut up, and the (wo woman went on their way, tho ono who hud been so prompt faying: "It makes me angry to see men in charge of horses so fearfully stupid. It is always easier to release thestanding horse than to untangle tho harness of the fallen one, and when tho other is led away the one down can rise easily. Mien are stupid, anyway." New York Trib une. Women Delegati-n Not Wnnlril. The Methodist conference at Yonkers has decided by a very emphatic vote of 180 to CO that women should not be ad mitted as delegates to tho general con ference. The report of the debate does not show that tho question was discussed or decided upon its merits. When it is said that it does not follow because n woman can sing bass that sho ought to sing bas, it would seem to bo a sufficient reply to suggest that if a bass wero needed to complete a quartet it would bo rather absurd to reject a bass voico be cause it was the voice of a woman. The decisive consideration in the de bate seems to have been that there was a divine reason for the difference of sexes, and that participation inn confer ence was not included in the sphere of women. But how the male sex, as such, qualified those who belong to it as wise counselors was not stated in any speech nor illustrated in the argument. There is always a better way of determining whether wood will float and stono sink than any argument based upon a theory. Tlio better way is experiment. The counsel of women in schools is proved to be of very great value. Tho opinion of a man who thinks that tho counsel was not meant to bo taken is not an argu ment against the fact. Harper's Weekly.

The Working Girls' club organization is quietly but rapidly growing to be a power among the working people. There is no talk of combines and strikes, no ag gressive measures, but they do combine in social societies which draw them nearer together, teach them the value of co-operation, and the spirit and teach ings of club life instill firmly in their i minds tho fact that increased capability means increased wages. There is in the New York association a bureau for ob taining situations, and there is to bo soon trade classes for those who aro un able to obtain work through incom petency, when, as Miss Dodge says, "Those who want to do everything and do not know how to do anything may learn to do something, and do it well." New York Sun. Annii DlcUlllrton the I.iiMt. Anna Dickinson is almost tho last of the great popular lecturers. There wero in tho list Gough, Beecher, Phillips, Chapiu, Curtis and Miss Dickinson. Gough was a great natural actor, and fascinated by his dramatic art in de scription and in story telling rather than by any power of rhetoric. Beecher, Chapin, Curtis and Phillips had all tho eloquence of culture as well as of natural endowment. Miss Dickinson was unique among them, largely from her womanly quality. Boston Herald. It is proposed to build a great teniplo for women on tho banks of the Potomac, in which each organization of women will havo a special department dedicated to it forever. The land has already been given, and is under tho control of tho Glen Echo Chautauqua society. Clara Barton is to prepare one department for the Hod Cross society, and other well known societies will join her. This tem ple is called just now tho Woman's Para dise. It makes the working girl tired to havo people always pitying her for living in a tenement, particularly when it is real ly a very clean, neat place. And sho is much a-weary of being told to look out for bargains and be economical, when if things were not so very cheap the girls who make them would not be so very poor. By way of diversion, a distinguished hostess of Loudon gave a dinner to n number of bachelors, with ladies dressed as maid servants to wait on them. An other dinner is expected soon, the women to dine and bo waited on by gentlemen attired as footmen. Mrs. Hose Gardner, of Montgomery, Ala., a very energetic woman, has beon promoted by the directors of tho South ern Exposition company from secretary of tho women's department of the expo sition to general manager of that depart ment.

One of the I.iidy .Mximgnrft AVon by n Ste-iioj-riiilier Wlni Took Her Speech. Monday, just a week ago, Miss Cora D. Payne, the lady manager from Ken tucky, disapjieared from the World's fair headquarters. Sho left a note to the other ladies, stating that sho had been called home on important business and would retiyii in a few days. The ladies paid no particular attention to the mat ter, as Miss Payne frequently visited her southern home and returned without anything eventful transpiring. When Miss Payne put in an appearance, how ever, the ladies put aside their apathy, for she was no longer MissC. Payne, but Mrs. Alfred Jackson. Mrs. Jackson was not dressed in the gala attire of a bride. Her toilet was even quieter than usual. It was so quiet that it excited suspicion. "Have you lo.-tany relatives?" inquired Mrs. Biillcne, of .Missouri, solicitously. Mrs. Jackson did not reply at once. She just blushed and looked down at her desk. Mrs. Bullene repeated her ques tion in a louder tone of voice. Still Mrs. Jackson seemed not to hear it, and acted in a timorously preoccupied manner. "1 do believe that Miss Payne went away I and got married," said Mrs. Bulleno to I another lady manager. Then a vocal sparring match took place between the ladies. Mrs. Jackson de nied emphatically that such was the case, but her color was so high that she be trayed herself. Finally, driven to bay, Mrs. Jackson confessed that she was Mrs. Jackson. Miss Payne came from Kentucky last fall when the woman's commission met, and evincing a lively interest in the woman's branch of exposition work, she was asked to remain in Chicago and identify herself with tho Chicago head quarters. Her husband was at the time a stenographer in Director General Davis' office. He is a smooth shaven, round faced young man, with a peculiar manner of speech, but it was tho hesitat ing manner of speech that won the lady manager from tho south. Every morn ing they walked to the office together, and every evening they were seen to de part in company. They never knew each other before tho first session of tho woman's commis sion. Jackson was sent to take a steno graphic report of tho meeting. Miss Payne had just finished making a speech. The confusion was great at tho time and Jackson could not catch all that she said. As she seated herself ho went quietly over to her seat and asked her politely to repeat what sho said. Their eyes met, and it was then that Miss Payno felt her first sensation of love and Mr. Jackson lost his heart. Things progressed nicely until the time for the marriage came, and it was t lien Miss Payne suggested a deception that was executed admirably. Instead of going home she went with her hus band that was to be to London, Canada, where his parents resided, and there tho marriage ceremony was performed. Mr. and Mrs. .Jackson will reside in Chicago, and Mrs. Jackson will continue to represent her state in tho exposition. Chicago Mail. The lluliy King. The anecdotes current about little Don Alfonso aro simply innumerable, and ap pealing as they do to every mother's heart, go far toward increasing the popularity of the throne throughout Spain. Ho is exceedingly frank and unre strained in tho expression of his opin ions, especially when they concern tho personal appearance of his lieges, and although extremely disconcerting to the parties immediately concerned, they con stitute a source of delight to everybody else. It was only with the greatest diffi culty that his mother was able to im press upon him tho necessity of abstain ing from making remarks of this char acter in an audible tone of voico at church. Her admonishments, however, bore unexpected fruit. Tlio king manifestly took it for granted that the instructions to remain quiet and silent during divine service applied to others as well as to himself; for shortly afterward, when tho royal family and the court attended mass in state at tho Attocha church, little Don Alfonso sud denly interrupted the preacher in tho midst of oueof his most impassioned nud eloquent perorations by commanding him, in a shrill and piping tone of voice, to bo still, and not to make "such a noise in church."
