A Sermon by the Rev. Mr.
Busliong.
SHE MAY WEAR BLOOMERS
Bnt Will Do All She Has to Do to
Better Herself and the
- World.
By this we understand that a woman
of graces, with high commendable traits
of character, will continue to be honored
by God and man.
This- subject has been Selected for this
evening's discourse from a complaint
coming to us tha t most of the discourses
to the young have beea In the interests
of young men, as though! they were the
11 Important factors in the Interests of
this world's welfare; to some it would
seem that:
"Warriors and statesmen have 'their need
of praise,
And what they do tor suffer men record;
But the long sacrifice of woman's days,
Pass3S without a thought, without a
word.
And many a lofty struggle for the sake
Of duties sternly, faithfully fulfilled,
For which the anxious mind must watch
and wake,
And the strong feelings of the heart be
stilled,
Goes by unheeded as the summer wind'
And leaves 110 memory and no trace be
hind, Yet it may be more lofty courage dwells
In one meek heart which braves an
adverse fate.
Than his whose ard;nt soul indignant
swells,
Warm'd by the fhjht or cheered by high
debate."
It Is not the design of this address
to give n. exhaustive treatment of the
subject In hand, neither Is it our purpose
to flatter the young women and girls of
Astoria but my purpose Bhall be to say
something to help you in this grtat battle
of life. That woman has ever figured
conspicuously in the affairs Of this world
for its weal or woe and that she has ever
toeen great In times of great emergencies,
all who are famHlar with the facts of
history are ready to admit. It !'s equally
true that In moat of the events which
have marked tund turned the course of
this world's history for weal or woe,
woman's hand nas tver, though often
Concealed, played a conspicuous part,
hence we may write her down, not only
the mother of all living, but the mother
of all history. All along the highway
of this world's march woman's power
sometimes behind the throne and some
times upon It has 'bsen signally felt. She
has thus proven her ability when an
opportunity has been given her to stand
side by Bide wifh her associates of the
Bterner sex In daring, suffering, self
denial, sympathy, klndne3s, culture, cun
ning, crime, cruelty, control, and not
unfrequently his superior. Of woman
the poet wrote:
"Not from his head was woman took,
As made her husband to o erlook;
Not from his feet as one designed,
The foo't&tool oTt the Sterner kind,
But fashioned for himself a bride,
An equal, taken from Ms side."
Proof of this fact Is found in three
eventful periods Of the races', history. In
Jewish history I need' but name Myriam,
Deborra, Jaei, Judith, Jlebeccav Esther,
Ruth, Mary, PreCllla and Jezebel. In
classic history appear the names of
Samiramus, Aspacla, of whom Socrates
learned philosophy, Portia, Cleopatra,
Boadlcea, Zenobla. When We come to
modern history the names of distin
guished .women are so numerous that the
mere reading of the names of the
mothers, wives and sisters of many of
the distinguished1 warriors, statesmen,
astronomers, discoverers, philosophers,
artisans, historians) land dlivines, who
helped these m3n to Ibe great and noble,
wouSd consume the remainder of the
time allotted for this address; yet Jus
tice compels no to say also that the
downfall and ruin of many a noble char
acter can also be tra'ctd to her influence
and prtwer. Sarah J. Hale truly wrote
of her felt want by man:
For man could never walk alone, and
even In Eden's ibowers,
He pined for womatn's smile to cheer
his task of tending flowers."
May we not ask just here. "What are
the distinguishing privileges and oppor
tunities of the average girl of today?"
Tb.s question may in part be answered
by saying, the long mooted question of
her equality with her brother man has
been settled In her favor by the verdict
c? th schools, of the business world and
the church, and through the influence of
this verdict there have foeero opened to
woman the new erai of a bright and glor
ious future. A key toy which (many doors
heretofore closed against her have been
unlocked and thrown Vide opin, to her
ana Bne at last has Jbecome the honor
ed and healthful competitor with her
orotner ior nearly all the positions of
trust, homor, power and emolument in
xne g.Tt of a great people, and she has
taken at last:
"Her place intended to maintain,
The mate and equal of the man, '
And never from his side remove,
As only less than God beloved."
It to for woman now to whom puch
hopeful doors have been opened to prove
herselif equal to this increased responsi
bility, and yet to her cred.t be It said,
that In most cases where she has been
pUiVoa trial oJs her brother's competitor,
she has well proven her claim and right
'to this position. I would be unjust to
you and to this occasion If I did not refer
to the increased responsibility of this new
condition olf things, toy which she sways
rc:ptre of power for jrood or evil far
spepor to any fornver period of the
'.vorld's history.' I would not only have
ner aect ner power over her brother, tout
I would have h;r realize her resnonirlhll-
ity a well as the opportunity; I would
nave ner exert mat power over her
bro.her I j teach him some of the b;st
uwaons ot '.He, and as brother or lover,
influence tolrrt while she may; for
"Wama.Vs warm heart and gentle hand
in God's eternal plaiv
Were formel t soften, soothe, re five,
exalt and strenthen man,
And Mki a llrht wltbln a vase his home
erjshrlnes lier farm,
Wh ch brightens o'er his world tossed
mind, like sunshine o'er the storm."
If he seems addicted to habits deroga
tory 'to his noblest manhoad this ideal
girl will use her best t-.-.deavors to in
duce him to break off from thes? wh'le
he may. Does he new and then use pro
fane words, she will give him to under
stand that it Is nj: oily nit manly,
but not allowable V. I.e.- onuany. Dors
he tlppU occasionally, the will kindly
frankly, but firmly let Km know that she
.s ootn arraia of and will not endure a
wine or whisky breath; and by so doln?
iiumurr oi uppiing young men will I
oe grear.y reauced, as well as that of
arunnein nuiroandS. This corrtlr.g ..deal girl
will never marry a tippling young man
with the hope of reforming him, far if
he will not stop b:s tud hM:t as a
lover she will well know he will not di
so as a husband. If her young fr.end
proposes an expensive Sabbath afterno a
ride she will propose to him an Inexpen
sive and healthful walk. Ths ideal girl
will become a conspicuous factor In re
modeling the expensive and Irksome con
ventionalities ut that somethang called
rrfodem "eorlctr." T!;t li .jVmands upon
i.me, panence, purse ana good nse,
have become a burden, and a, curse, is
a well conceded fact. Many of society's
forms and rules are mere false and hol
low shams. A fair sample Cn, the way
of some of its calls may be seen in the
following lines:
There goes the bell, a visitor. I buiss.
And I'm a fright and haven't time to
dress;
H'ml Mrs. Gossip, from across the wav.
What put It in her head to call today;
10 see what she can ee, that's all, no
uouoc;
That womai-Vs nothing but a gadabout,
1 imie ner wtm ner supercilious airs.
That horrid girl Is bringing her up
stairs.
Tls Mrs. Gossip, I declare!' Why this
Is quite a pleasure, I am sure (a kiss)
So kind of you to call, 'tis quite a treat,
Let me remove your shawl! Pray take
a seat.
We are all upset this mornlmsr. it Is true.
But we can arways And a seat for you,
jrray aon 1 apologize, there Is no need,
I am very g".ad you have called,
am. Indeed.' "
The servitude is confessed, but how to
throw oft this galling yoke is still a
question of much Interest. It has laid
its heavy withering hand upon nearly
every vltar Interest of our modern civiliz
ation; but for Its demands, expensive
state dlnmers with the ever accompanying
wins cup, with its fruits of revel and
aeDauen would be largely a thing of
tne past. To this tyrant can be traced
not only many a financial but many, a
moral wreck; society says If we would
be anything In society we must make
a good appearance, we must live in a
respectable house, we must have at least
a well furnished parlor, we must be up
with the times, as well as with the latest
cut. We must go Into society if we ex
pect to pe reoognleed as members of
society; tout this Often proves a heavy.
yes, a too heavy drain upon an honest
purse as well as upon valuable time,
body, mind and soul. There are thous
ands of our American girls who see
neany every interest of life in the light
ot society. Tha question constantly
arises in meir mmas, "How and where
shall I make my debut In society? 'Oh,
that eighteenth year old. birthday party,
what shall I wear, -how shall. I atmear.
who shall I Invite to It and whem it is
over I wonder what they will think and
say?" Thoughts like these have occupied
xne aays ana nignts ror months of many
of the modern wouldbe society girls,
and nearly as much, time and thought
of many a doting motWer and still more
thoughts of the hard-pushed father who
has to foot the bills. . If we are to hidM
from the movements of some of the
moaern city gj-ls it will be ;en that
their chief aim of life is how to appear
we'll in society, If nowhere else; how
they may dress Well, wear the society
cue, the society smile, how to walk, talk
and laugh, according to society's rules;
to learn to play and sing a few little
songs, such as "Oh, how mother, dear
mother, will miss me when I'm gone;"
while the poor, silly old mother at the
same time Is drudgtag her life away
In the kitchen to give dear Lillle the
pleasure of appearing well in society
with soft white hands, with the hops
of getting her saBely offir of Her
hands upon the hands of someone else,
who when first married to such a. girl
feels like eating her up and in after years
wishes the had. Against all of these ty
rannical demands of society the Cdeal
girl will enter a strong and positive pro
test and refuse to bow to Its galling
yoke and cruel sceptre. To hr we must
look for reform. To her we must look
to lift her dans out of the "dreamy play
of life" into the sublime realm of noble
useiut enort that will take hold of and
help the world to a better life. I am
not quite certain, beautiful and. Innocent
as they seem to be. that mainv olf th
China dolls are the best playthings for
little girls, with their painted faces, deli
cate hands and little feet, with crimped
uair, ior many a grown up girl has often
wisnea sne had the face, hands, feet
and hair of the doll she once played
with and she has made many a fruitless
effoTt to imitate her china doll. It might
iive iDBcra iDetter rr some of that
class of girls had been dolls, for
then they would not only have been
painted to stay and In the "market," but
would have stood a. good chance of being
uuugni oy someway, it is an open secret
that many a sodty girl has remained on
the market beteause of her "high notions
of the demands of society." She Is too
expensive a commodity for the average
young man to take upon his hands at all
times. Its a common remark among a
certain class of honorable, Industrious
young men, "I cannot afford to get mar
ried Just now," It costs too much these
uays to support a wife in the style Bhe
expects me to keep her," for most girls
expect to B'tart where their parents have
off after years of toll and saving, I
naa mecter stay a single man and I will,"
so he does. It Is also a conceded fact
that the rigid rules of this
in its style and dress has drlvem many
ucrcrvuig gins to ruin. They were made
to feel that they were not wanted be
cause they could not keep up with the
style of "our set." Or they were given to
understand that fhey did not belong to
the select ''four hundred," and hence
were ruled, dressed, sneered and elbowed
out of society and too often, alas, out of
courage, honesty and heaven. God, re
llg.on and humanity all look to this com
ing ideal girl as a chief agency in
bringing about a much needed reform; In
many modern social circles, wh'sre char
acter and true worth and not dress and
fl.ppant style and a faw eurfaco accom
plishments shall be the standard by which
people shall toe "estimated. This discourse
would be very incomplete were we rot
to give a few moments in considering th'c
ail important and much discussed ques
tion of "woman's sphere." May we not
appropriately ask "who dare define with
met'es and hounds woman's sphere any
more than he would man's sphere?" and
yet we think we cai.i answer this seeming
vexatious question In one round sentence.
Her sphere is wherever and In what
ever she is most needed and can be most
herself and do most for the uplifting of
the race. 1 care not if this sphere ttnds
her In the home, school room, behind the
counter, in the counting room, at the
oauot ioax, at post of honor and trust,
la legislative halls, lit tha councils of
nations for peace or war, on Judges'
benches, or editorial chairs, in president's
mumm ana in tne pulpit, in any and all of
these whenever and wherever she la mnt
ne?d.d;and to her credit be It a. d whpn
and wherever In any of these she has
Been tried she has do:i herself the
cr.-dlt and the pos.tlon the honor of
being her brother's equal, It will not be
a question with this Ideal girl as to what
she does, so much as it will be how the
does it. It is safe to say she will let
the world know and feel that she Is
fitted for and can and will do something
more than "primp and dress and friz,"
read a few light novels and call It liter
ature, or copy a few masterpieces and
call It painting; she will shew the world
that she can do more than study bow to
appear wen in society, she will wake and
Is already waking this world up to the
important fact whether she be rich or
poor that she now knows bow to cook
her own food, make up her own bed,
and If need be she can and will earn her
own J.vlng. She will let young men
know that she can and will pay her cwn
faTe on street cars; that she will buy
win pay tor ner own tickets to tnter
tainments, as well as buy her own candy
wa" n wants it. Bhe will refuse costly
pree.its from young men betfor she Is
n arrled and receive a great many more

is necessary for either health or to make

11 sne nnas it more convenient or safe to
do so, not "to be odd," but for utility and
safety; she, will b pre-eminently a prac
tical girl in all she Is and eH she does,
as a fact there Is not a cound philosophical
commonsense reason why a woman should
wear a dress any more than why a man
should wear one or why she should rld'i
on a side saddle any more than why a
man should. la the Orient the man
wears the dress skirt and the woman
the trousers, and she rides accordingly
and no one thinks It straiure or Inrro-nner.
This girl will do nothing for mere show
or to oa oua, tout will seek in every way
to be useful in the world. Bhe will spin
more home yarn and less street yarn
than has ever been done In the history of
the world. Solomon says: "She will seek
wool and flax and will work willingly
wun ner nanus; strength and honor are
her clothing and she Will rejoice in the
time to come." She will not be ashamed
of the bent form and furrowed cheek
ana "Dangless" head of her old mother-
neither will she toe asharrtedl to own her
poor relations, nor discard the hard hand
or noneat toll, but will ever ask "where
is tne money coming from, she will live

of health upon her cheeks and spend lees
money and time in paint in the vain
effort to accomplish the same end. Sh
will pay especial heed to physical de
velopment culture and health, rather
than to appear "delicate." Sh will
mark well the distinction between hypoc
rlcy and politeness. She will bHva ,vwi

Ion plates so much as to common sense
for her style of dress, neither will she
don a foolish and sometimes almost a
disgraceful costume Just because some
millionaire's daughter or the dressmaker
decree Ct to be the fashion. In short
this coming ideal girl will reeoa-il it
as her most exalted privilege to honor
her maker by making the most of her
self and out of the resoure.s at her com
mand, and with her duty to herself and
to others faithfully performed will be
her noblest conception and highest aim.
life to her will not toe a whirl of giddy
flirtations, but a grand opportunity, a
rublime reality, with a resistless purpose
to levre the world purr, nobler. Higher
and happier because she has lived and

A press dispatch from New Orleans
says: The new steamship line between
New Orleans and Colon to connect there
with San Frainclsoo, established by the
Wholesaler Grocers' association of thi
city, will be suspended upon the arrival
of the Oterl, the Southern Pacific chang
ing its rates to suit the New Orleans
shippers. The Grocers' association sent
cut the Oterl as the pioneer of a new
Occam line to California, laden with
Louisiana produce, and she is now on her
way back with some 10,000 barrels of
wine and other California produce. Other
vessels were to have been put on this
month, but the railroad Anally conceded
what the New Orleans morehants asked
and gave them the earn SO-cent rate as
New York and agreed to make no change
in rates without g.vlng--duo notice.
Previous to this agreement New York
hed a lower rate than New Orleans be-
caiitfa It would necessitate a change In
the rates to St. Louis and other points.

Captain Moore, which left Newcastle for
ban Francisco with coal on the 18th of
May, show that she was overtaken by
a gale on the 19th of May. This knocked
her about gra.ly, causing her to leak
badly, making eght feet of water In tho
add. Tho pumps were continually at
work, and the leak lessened, although at
on'a time thoughts were entertained of
abandoning the vessel. When rhe gale
subs.ded the bark's course was shaped for
Noumea, where she arrlwd on May 80.
Captain Moore Is now awaiting Instruc

miner tne Arnwrignt got ashore at Spen
