ABOUT WOMEN, •.

Zella Nicholas, the woman to whom, it is claimed, George Gould gave #10,000, is going on the stage. v-1

An old bachelor says: "It is all non sense to pretend that love is blind. never saw a man in love that did not see ten times as much in his sweetheart as I could

Mrs. Langtry has. put down the pow der puff and taken Up the pen. In other words she has de3erted the stage for the study, drama for literature. Her first book which is soon to be published, will bear the appropriate title "A Jersey Lily."

Friends familiar with the circumstances of Mrs. Schuyler Colfax, the widow of the late Vice-President Colfax, declare tbAt the failure of the Indianapolis National Bank has entirely swept away the small fortune left by her husband, which was invested in the ruined institution.

There are said to be in England 120,000 barmaids of licensed public-houses whose hours of work average from fifteen to eighteen on week-days, and from seven to nine on Sundays, with only one Sunday off per month. English agitators of the woman question are discussing some way to improve the condition of these overworked young women.

Miss Tucker, known all over tha world under the initials of "A. L. O. E.," died in India last week. For the last eighteen years Miss Tucker has been engaged in missionary work' there. The proceeds of her pen were used for the benefit of the missions, and it is understood that all money earned on her works in the luture will go to the missions.

A state prison conducted by women is a unique institution possessed by Sherborn, Mass. It has been in operation for fitteen years, ana has been very successful. One of the signs of reformatory success has been a falling off in the number of inmates. A system of credits and demerits prevails, and all prisoners are helped to help themselves, mentally, morally and physically.

Miss Edith Dadami is aCalifornian, 17 years old, whose name deserves to be enrolled upon the book of fame. She is only five feet and a quarter of ai* inoh high and weighs only 128 pounds. She can, however, lift a bag of barley 125 pounds in weight and fling it into a wagon with the same airy grace that she would display in tossing a b&ll. She can break mustangs, drive gang plow teams, play piano, lasso a steer, milk and make butter, embroider doylies, tell a horse's age and value by looking at him, and prepare as delicious dinners as it is permitted Californians to enjoy.

Mrs. Philip SheridaA is almost the only widow of a great public man who absolutely declined purses, funds, and any such testimonials after his death, and resolutely opposed all offers from military societies and others who wished to erect his tombstone, She wished no other provision than that General Sheridan bad hiuaaelf made for his family, and erecting a monument over his remains was the least that she could do for him—too precious a duty for her to assign it to any one else. Mrs. Sheridan's children—three daughters and a manly little Philip Sheridan, Jun., are coming up rapidly, and young as she still looks herself, Mi's. Sheridan will introduce her eldest daughter to society in a few seasons.,

The women of New Zealand now exercise the right of suffrage in the elections there, just as they have exercised it in our own State of Wyoming for a quarter of a century. When they voted at the elections held in the colony a "few weeks ago, the objections to female' suffrage were dispelled. Their demeanor was worthy of their sex, and the demeanor of the male voters toward them was respectful and correct. They gave evidence of their interest in public affairs, of their political independence, mainly by voting against the government, and of the soundness of their judgement in discriminating between the rival candidates. The scenes at the polling booths, as described by the colonial papers, were in every way satisfactory.

Hoberg, Root A Co. announce in another column that for three days next week, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, they will offer every article in their itn mense stock at actual cost.
