Thousands of irresponsible statements founded on prejudice and surmise appeared in the newspapers and magazines, but when » ‘Vassar woman—Mre. Annie Howes-Barus, ‘74— published her compilation of health statistics the scientific accuracy of tha: record fell like frost upon the. swarm of buzzing insect-like items. Scarcely # chirp has been heard since. People now wish to kn>7 how a college educa- tion affects a woman's after life. The first question everybody asks is, Do women gradu- ates marry?

After twenty yeare the chances are two to three that she is married. Whether more of the Vassar women would have become matrons if they had never seen the college it is impomible to stat 16. On the 10th inst. a convention was held at which Mr. W. C. Chase was elected president, Mr. Brooker chief marshal of the parade. and the usual committees appointed. A number not satisfied with the action of that meeting withdrew and will hold another convention or mass meeting tonight. Meanwhile, however, the commitices appointed at the meeting of the 10th inst. have gone on with their prepara- tions, and have their arrangements well ad- vanced. MEETINGS HELD SATURDAY. The committee on arrangements met at the office of the Bee Saturday afternoon. An order was issued “that the twenty-ninth anniversary celebration of the emancipation of slaves in the District of Columbia be celebrated as by a street parade, to terminate at Lincoln Park, where speaking and other exercises will be held; that all carts, wagons and chariots shall be excluded from ‘the procession; that no social club nor civic organization will be per- mitted a place in line unless the club is regu- larly uniformed or properly dressed, and all clubs and orgunizations must notify the chief marshal twenty-five days prior to April 16 if they want a place in line.” A snbeomnmittee on the erection of stand at Lincola Park was appointed; also a committee tion by the colored people of the District April | 6°04 More Favorable Expressions in Hie Selection as Mr. Windom's Succes-or. of Ohio said to = Stan reporter Saturda; the selection.

Correspondence of The Evening Star. Rocavinue, February 20, 1891. Mr. Charles A. C. Higgins, one of the largest farmers and best known citizens of the first election district of this county, has made an for subsequent investigations that will prob- ably yield more exact and satisfactory results. No one appreciated more keenly than I the magnitude and dificulty of this investigation. Suggestions and criticivins have been sought in every direction, and ‘the work has been prose- cuted from Leginning to end with the sole aim to obtain all the facts as accurately and quickly as ible. ‘hat there are imperfections in the work I readily admit, but no other method would have yielded Letter results without en- dangering the enumeration of the people. On this point all statisticians who have examined stated in a paper recently that women are very ager for principles for the elevation of the sex and of the race, but that they donot love one an- other.
