That the woman who works is important factor world with each becoming a more in the economic passing year is shown by a report just issued by the Department of Commerce and Labor at Washing- ton. Dealing in figures as little as may be, the report shows that 2,500,000 more women “worked in the United States in 1900 than in 1890, the greater total being 4,833, 630. But figures often fail to impress because of their very magnitude. A clearer idea of how women have gained a foothold in practically every branch of industry is found in the fact that the sex is repre- sented in all but nine-of the 303 oc. cupations listed by the census bureau. There are woman pilots, railwvay baggagemen, brakemen, engineers, switchmen, ship carpen- ters and even two woman roofers and slaters. Domestic service claims more than a million, while those that toil on the farm are next in number. Of the ten occupations most favored by women, five, domestic service, dress- makers, laundresses, housekeepers and seamstresses, are what might be termed feminine pursuits. - Women, it would appear, are slowly but sure- ly crowding men out of the teaching profession, numbering fow almost three-fourths of the profession, a considerable gain in twenty years. One woman in every five is a bread winner, but the census figures show that the ~great majority of woman workers marry, for compara- tively few are employed after their thirty-fifth year, while nearly half of the workers are under 25. Further, 65 per cent of the woman workers are single, 16' percent married, 17 widows and about 1 per cent divor- ced. But what has caused the great in- crease in the number of woman wage-earners? If the conclusions of the census experts are correct, only a small proportion are entirely de- pendent upon their own earnings for support, while a still smaller per- centage is supporting families un- assisted. Why, then, do they work? Because of the growing desire to be independent, perhaps, or because of the desire to dress better than they otherwise could—these at least will be the reasons given by men. Women probably will say “because.” BOY KILLED BY ELEPHANT Tragedy During Circus Parade at Buf- falo, N. Y. Buffalo, N. Y., June 12.—Goaded to fury by tbe torments of a dozen small boys ,who followed her for several blocks of the parade and pelted her with small missiles Ruth, a feature of Cole Bros. circus and said to be the largest living elephant, shot her trunk intc a densely packed crowd of spec- tators at Lafayette square in Main street. When she withdrew it the body of twelve-year-old Rocco Laguino dangled in the air. With a trnmpet of rage the beast lifted the boy above her head and brought him down with terrific force on the pavement. Then she released her hold of the victim and left him prostrate. His skull had been frac- tured by the impact. Lily, an elephant following vicious Ruth, struck the body with her foot and knocked it several feet in toward the curb line. Laquino died in the ambulance on the way to the hospital and the body was taken to the morgue.

Philadelphia, June 1%—Acting upon instructions from Washington United States District Attorney Thompson will move against the so-called um- brella trust.

Suicide as Experiment. A wealthy young man named Lean- dro Improta after taking refreshment at a cafe in Naples called for pen and ink and wrote a number of notes and letters.

One of the letters found in his pocket runs: To the Curious Public—In this century it 1s impossible voluntarily to leave this world without great efforts being made on the part of newspapers and curious people to discover the cause of the deed. In my case I wished to study metempsychosis at close quarters. TIs that not a fine idea? So much has Leen written on the subject, and it pleascs me to discover instead of talking. So I determined to die and sce whether I shall be reborn in the form of some animal. It would be delightful to return to this world as a lion or a rat. This Is why I wanted to die. ~ ADDIO.

No women have done more for hu- manity and for the individual than the old maid reformer and the old maid ’mmt. There is none to whom we owe a deeper debt of gratitude and none whom we could not better spare, says a writer in the Cosmopolitan, for be sure of this, God sends old maids into the world to do the work that the rest { of us leave undone. * Congenial Employment.
