Fran Gnanct on Modern Women.
Frau Elizabeth Qnauck of Berlin has been addressing the Evangelical Social congress of Germany. This does not seem an announcement to startle any one, especially here in America, where congresses of every sort are addressed by women every day, but in Germany this is a new departure, for, by Prussian law, it is forbidden to hold clubs or to meet for the purpose of public speaking. Frau Gnauck is therefore the first woman to address the congress. Her paper divided all womankind into two classes—the laboring, which suffer from too much work, and the idle, which suffer from too much leisure.
In her opinion the old time, before the introduction of machinery had given to the well to do too much leisure and the poor too much work, when the housewife was busy from morning till night with a never ending round of household duties, was the golden age of women. This view was naturally attractive to the conservative audience she addressed, and they paid her the compliment of long and loud applause. All her suggestions were of an eminently practical order. She advocated the appointing of women factory inspectors, echool commissioners apd the like.
Old Marriage Ceremony.
Polynesia is probably the only place in the world where the marriage feast takes place without the presence of the bridegroom. For some unexplained reason the young man is "sent into the bush" when negotiations are opened with the family of his bride, and he remains there during the subsequent festivities. Ifc is only when the guests have departed and the girl is left alone with his parents that messengers are dispatched for him.
Meekness is imperfect if it be not both active and passive, leading us to subdue our own passions and resentments, as well as to bear patiently the passions and resentments of others.— Foster.
WOMAN'S WORLD.
A YOUNG WOMAN WHO MANAGES AND EDITS A DAILY NEWSPAPER.
The Hotel Housekeeper The American Oirl—Georgia Women Journalists—Mrs. Sheridan and Her Children—The Countess de Castellane.
The new woman is still branching out. She had tackled about
every
de
partment on a newspaper outside of the business office and the mechanical departments, and now she has absorbed the whole outfit at one swoop.
The woman to make this daring move is of course a western girl. She is Miss Nellie Madeline Davis, daughter of Colonel C. C. Davis, proprietor and founder of the Leadville Chronicle, which is one of the most influential evening newspapers in Colorado. Colonel Davis was recently ill as a result of living for many years in the high altitude of the famous mining camp, and his physician ordered a prolonged absence at sea level. There was no one to whom he cared to intrust the man-
MISS NELLIE DAVIS.
agement of his paper during a long absence, and he began to despair of his ability to follow the doctor's prescription, when the daughter suggested that she take the position of editor, manager and publisher.
It was a bold suggestion, and it won because of its boldness. A brief trial convinced Colonel Davis that the young woman was capable, and with an easy mind and a clear conscience he started on his travels.
Miss Davis is not a girl of the "M'liss" type, if she does run a newspaper in a mining camp. On the contrary, she looks very like the conventional society young woman and confesses to a great fondness for social diversions—just like any other well balanced, healthy, good looking and bright girl of 22. What is probably most to her credit is the fact that she protests vehemently against being called a "new woman." She prefers to be considered just what she is—a womanly woman.
She is at her desk almost continuously from 7 :30 in the morning until 6 in the evening, and after supper she returns to see how things are going and to open the mail. Of her complex duties she prefers editorial work. She is a prolific writer, and a good one. She attends to all the business correspondence, edits the telegraphic news, reads proofs and is learning to operate a linotype machine. —Chicago Tribune.
The Hotel Housekeeper.
••Whoever has happened in at his hotel at 4 o'clock in the morning has been sure to notice that the lobbies are in possession of the scrubwomen, with their pails and mops, their scrubbing brushes and their surrounding pools of slop. He may have seen a neat and ladylike woman, dressed as well as any guest, standing on the marble stairs, as if to command the scene, or flitting out of sight. That is the housekeeper—a personage of great importance in a big hotel, and one whom the women boarders make it a point to get acquainted with, but whom the men in the rooms do not know or meet or very often see.
There was a panic in one of the seaside hotels last summer over an alarm of fire. Then the guests saw the housekeeper in all her might, and must have marveled at it. At the first scream the negro waiters rushed for their baggage and began throwing it out of their windows and down the servants' stairs. The chambermaids were all either paralyzed with fear or noisy with alarm. Some ran about terrifying the guests with warnings and some stood still and shrieked.
Then the housekeeper appeared. She was calm. She ordered the negroes to bring their trunks back, she instantly discharged the girls whom she caught spreading the panic, and the worst screamer of the lot she sent to her bedroom with a threat of arrest if she made another sound. In two minutes the panic ceased, for she assured all the guests that the danger was past and the fire was out. She was a heroine as long as those people staid who had witnessed her command of the situation. To her friends she said afterward that when she got things quieted down she went to the scene of the fire to learn the truth about it, for when she said it was out she knew no more about it than a child unborn. "All I knew was," she said, "that there was nothing to be gained by a panic.
The housekeeper is in charge of the entire living part of a hotel and of the female help, and when she is a good disciplinarian and has a cool head on her shoulders sho is worth the good salary that she is sure to receive.—New York Sun. 'VJT
The American Girl.
Tlie American girl has been discussed nnd analyzed until one would think the lubject had been exhausted, bat a new development in England lends to the iiscussion a revived interest. It is one
of the amusing signs of the times that the British matron, after having for years utterly disapproved of and loudly condemned everything connected with our young countrywomen, is now endeavoring to find out the secret of her attractions, and to teach her "little ways" to her own somewhat stolid brood. To tell the truth, she is fairly frightened at the influx of Americans into the peerage and the county families, and since she finds she cannot kill with disapproval she seems inclined to imitate.
But here comes a difficulty, an insuperable obstacle of race. What an American can do, with a sort of airy audacity quite her own, is apt to become rather heavy horseplay with her English cousins. The explanation of this seems to be that the American type is more spirituelle. Our women may be eccentric, unconventional and even sometimes what might be called fast, but they are rarely, if ever, coarse. An innate refinement and coolness of temperament save them from vulgarity, and give to their manners the daring courage of originality that foreigners admire. "I thought we would find you altogether English," said a friend to an American girl who had married a titled Englishman on her first visit to her native land after her marriage. "No indeed!" answered the latter in mock horror. "I consider my American accent and manners my most cherished possessions. They are my greatest cards over there! We had afire at castle, where I was stopping last year, and I lost a lot of my clothes. 'I hope you saved your pretty gowns,' said the prince to me afterward. 'I saved nothing but my American accent, sir,' I answered. 'Well, then, you are all right,' he returned, laughing."—New York Tribune.
Georgia Women Journalists.
The intense activity of the Georgia newspaper press superinduced by the Atlanta exposition has brought prominently into notice a number of women writers who have sprung up in that commonwealth almost entirely within the last decade. A careful comparison shows that they are fully equal to their sisters in New York, Massachusetts and Illinois who have had the advantage of an experience of about twice as long. There is not the same high pressure of life in Dixie as in Yankeedom. People down there have more leisure time than those up here, and the papers reflect it in giving more attention to social, literary and similar events. These fields are covered almost exclusively by women writers and are described in the public prints in a manner worthy of the first class dailies of the north. Signed articles are more common also in the south, so that the public is much better acquainted with the personalities of the writers who entertain them day by day than they are in this part of the Union.
In Atlanta the leading women are Mrs. Maud Andrews Ohl, Mrs. William King, Mrs. Grady, Miss Isma Dooley, who are connected with the Atlanta Constitution Miss Corinne Stocker, Miss Mary Louise Huntley, Miss Brent Whiteside, Miss Mary Jackson of the Atlanta Journal. In other sections are Miss Ellen Dortch, who is now the assistant state librarian Miss Josephine Hill and Mrs. Coulding of the Savannah Press Miss Higbee, the novelist Mrs. Mary E. Bryan, the story teller Miss Orelia Key Bell, the poet Miss Lollie Bell Wylie, also a poet and essayist Mrs. Emily Battey, a veteran editor, and Miss Emily McLaws of the Augusta Chronicle. These are the leaders of a large body of intelligent and ambitious women. All are marked by a deep love for their profession, a strict loyalty to the paper with which they are connected and a broad enthusiasm for the elevation and higher education of their sex. —New York Mail and Express.
Mrs. Sheridan and Her Children.
Mrs. Irene Rucker Sheridan, widow of the late General Phil Sheridan, is still a young woman, writes V. Stuart Mosby Coleman from Washington in Ladies' Home Journal. She is slender, almost girlish in figure, and dresses with exquisite taste in dark colors. She is graceful and willowy, and carries her dainty head with an air of aristocratio ease. Her dark hair waves slightly into a becoming bang, her eyes are brown and bright, while the contour of her face is a delicate oval. In manner she is simple and kindly, her birth and breeding showing plainly in the ease with which she meets all of her social duties and the tact of her cordial bearing. Mrs. Sheridan is rather retiring and is devoted to her home and children. She orders the conduct of her household even to the details, and personally superintends the studies of her son, who bears the name of his illustrious father, of whom he is a speaking likeness. She finds time also to indulge her tastes for music and painting, for fancy needlework and for the demands of charities. Until within a year or two Mrs. Sheridan has entertained rarely, except in the way of small dinner parties and informal evenings for friends.
The Sheridan children are a bright and interesting group. There are four of them Mary, the eldest, who was presented to society last winter the twins, Irene and Louise—of whom the general was so proud—who will make their social debut during the present season, and Phil junior, who is nearing his fourteenth birthday. The girls are just such daughters as might be expected of such a mother—pleasant, affable, well mannered, well educated, sweet and simple, full of life and spirit. In young Phil great hopes are centered. He goes to school in Washington, but when he is old enough his mother will have him sent to West Point.
