a CITY AND DISTRICT. WOMEN IN PROFESSIONS, Journalists, and Others te the Council. ‘The oMcers of the Woman's International Coun- il and those delegates who talked last night about ‘women in the professions faced a crowded house, Gespite the pouring rain outside. Inage there ‘were light and color and animation. Miss An- ‘Thony’s Ted shawi Mashed across the stage like a meteor in the sk¥, 38 she put things to sorts before (pening Up for business, PROF.

For the perfection of women as teachers {t Is greatly heeded that the Jouns Hopkins University, with ts splendid equipments, snouid be thrown open to studying women ‘wo be educators, wR, LAURA C. HOLLOWAY, the well-known journalist of Brookiyn, was next yatroduced. Mra H@loway ts a sprightly, youth- Tul woman with a pleasingly animated face that immediately won her audience. She stepped lightly to the front, ciad in a dress of simple gray serge. “Miss Anthony asked me,” she said, “to ‘ell the story of Woman's Work in Journalisin, and when she gave me ten minutes to do it im I almost Delleved she thought I Was as clever as herself, for she can tell you everything about woman's suf Jrage in an incalculably short ume." There never ‘was a time, she said, since newspapers were made that women did not work upop them—a woman aiscovered the printing press, A Japanese princess discovered it, but as men did not Know what to do ‘with ft it Was suppressed. Miss Anthony had a x herself once, in Brooklyn. It was called The Rewoiuiion. She had the Hevolutton and soe had @ debt of $10,000. She got rid ot the news. paper and the dept a.woman im Tennessee teach her, husband jaw and newspaper at same ume, and give him the credit of it, too. ‘Susan Is tne best known woman in the newspaper ‘offices in this country, and so she always said she Js the oldest journalist. Her motto was “follow Susan.” What Is known asthe modern movement 3m Journalism commenced about thirty years ago. ‘Now there are 200 woman editors in New Yors. she had asked an editor in New York what por- ‘Won Of newspaper Work a woman could not do, and he sald they could not go into the slums, an af they did go there they could not describe them. She paid her respects rather sarcastically to the ‘newspaper men of the country. ‘The best school 4m the world, she sald. 8 @ newspaper office. All romen owe it to themselves to help forward the day when she shall more fully asatst la directing ‘Ube affairs of this great nation. DR. SARAH HACKETT STRVENSOX, tall knightly woman, was next introduced. she ‘Was clothed frou bead to foot in black velvet, straight sleeves puffed at the top, a hign velvet ollar fastened at the base with a luked silver collar aud a linked girdle about tue waist. Soe ‘wore Diack gloves and nothing White. Sbe has a strong face and dark hair. She said women should cultivate the scieatifie eof mind, Wouan Is disposed to espouse the easy system of hing’. She made a plea ior women to be con’ en aly With the highest scientific attainments. The economic value of food 1s not learned by nolding yuass-meetings, but by Une careful study of the ‘hemist. Medical science is learned only by long xnd persevering application. The medical schools Yor Wowen are pour, while Lhe colleges for men count thelr endowinents by millions. France and Switz- eTland have openea the doors of colleges to women, and Engiand admits women for exatinations, ‘The greatest bindrapee 10 the spread of medical sctence is the growth of cheap and impoverisied jaedical schools The greatest foes of science are poverty and quackery. There are one | thovsand registered wo.ien physicians im the United States, some of them mak- Ing $50,000 a year. Shain science is the fashiona- bie fad of the day. A few girls sent as missionary ductors have done good work. ‘The inbumanities ‘of institutional Iife is sickening to behold. Physi «sans, and not commercial men, should treat the sick. " Wherever wowen are detained by law there should be women to care for their needs, The time is not far distant when all insane women Will be | provided by law with women attendants she ad- Vised women to go to Nature to learn her lessons, WOMEN AND MUSIC. In the absence of Miss Katharine Willard, who ‘was to have sung, Miss Anthony presented Miss ‘Frances Willard with a basket of flowers, and in- troduced Miss Powell as a fine illustration of Woman in the profession of music. Miss Powell rendered a violin solo with fue ex; Con- Minued applause brought forward Mrs, Stanton, ‘Who said: “I have been 30 delizhied and so happy Im Ustening to all the young women upon this vlatforia tbat I cannot find words vo express mr gratitude that women are permitted to learn ail These arts and sciences, Fifty Years ago this was not so; ff 18 an unusual thing for woman to play The violin.” ‘Miss ARthony sald she did uot know one note cor one tune from anotuer. Her music ‘was not in her bead but in her hear: MES. ADA M. BITTENPENDER, the Nebraska lawyer, with Miss Anthony's arm about her waist, began to read her paper upon “Woman in Law.” Mrs. Rittenbender 1s a short, well-rounded woman, with an earnest, pleasant Ince, and her dark “hair, drawn back from her brow, and gathered in a knot behind. She wore & plaia dress of black velvet and jet waistcoat. Mrs bittenbender handled her subject, “Woman in Law,” with marked effect. She stated nearly one PuLired American women have been admitted to ‘ue tegal profession, and nearly al American law schools are open to women, the exceptions belug those connected with Yale, Harvard and Colum Dian and Georgetown Universities and Columbia ollege. American women lawyers are now en- tiled. to practice before all courts, state and na- Uonal, aud many are carrying on a successful practice, cordially countenanced by brother law- Some areably contriuting to legal litera- In England, women are not adiitted to membersip in the inns of court, and In conse- quence are preciuded from ranking as. barristers, They, ower and do become attorneys.at- In nearly all ‘ovagn countries women, upon iiallfying are pot permite} to tak rs.

A pica was made for mudxed juries WOMAN IN THE MINISTRY. Iu going through the professions Mra Aga C.
