A HORSE KILLED. Collision Between a Milk Wagon and an Electric-Car. There was 2 collision at Eighteenth and Guerrero streets yesterday morning be- tween a milkwagon and an electric-car, and the car came out on top. Shortly after 5o’clock the driver of one of Ewell, Shafer & Co.’s milkwagons at- tempted to cross Guerrero street into Eighteenth in front of the ear, but he was not quick enough and the car struck the rig square on the side. One of the horses was killed and the driver was thrown to the ground and ly shaken up. He escaped without any broken bones. The milkcans were pitched out of the wagon by the force of the collision, and the lacteal fluid was scattered all over the roadway. chase of 250 tons of Roslyn coal.

The transportation and water committee of the Manufacturers’ and Producers’ As- soeiation, composed of M. J. Keller, W. L. Palmer, A. Rudgear and J. P. Taylor, held a meeting yesterday to consider the mat- ter of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company and the south coast trade. . Many of the local merchants have had occasion to com- plain of the freight rates of this company to Central and South American ports, and assert that the local trade is sadly discrim- inated against by the company. Goods can be shipped from the East and Europe and landed at any port down the coast cheaper and with less trouble than from San Francisco. This matter was first brought to the at- tention of the association by a letter from Howard & Cuenca, editors of a Spanish paper, in which the writers asserted that the action of the Pacific Mail is killing all the San Francisco trade with Mexico and Central America. i Wwishes to If a person in Mexico urchase a bill of goods in San Francisco he must first prepay all freight charges, which involves an unnecessary amount of correspondence and delay, in- stead of paying the freight when the goods arrive, At the meeting yesterday the committee sent for the authors of the letter in order to obtain further information upon the subject. They were not able to attend the mesting. _ After discussing the matter in generali- ties the committee decided to call upon e ground for the com- glamt... and if s0 to discuss waysand means ¥ which the annoyances and hardships may be overcome. ——————— The natives of India believe that ele- :gfi:u have a religion and form of wor- ned | ning smith that might be found in the | ALL BADE HER GODSPEE Mrs. Clara B.

By special request Mrs. Clara Shortridge ‘ Foltz spoxe before the Channing Auxiliary of the First Unitarian Church yesterday afternoon on the subject of “Woman and Her Partner.” There was a full attend- ance and the speaker's remarks were fre- quently mterrupted by applause at some | strong point in her discourse or by the | bursts of langhter over the numerous darts of wit. With little preliminary tal the fair lecturer plunged into her subject as | follows: T would have preferred to speak to you this aiternoon on lomethln%lmhung to the poetic side of woman rather than on the subject an- nounced. I would have preferred to speak of the women of Shakespeare, ot the Bible or of history, but my subject is “Woman and her Partner.”” Asa fact woman has been for & great many Years an associate of man without any legal rights. The husband was the only partner. The mistake msn haslabored under—and many still labor under this mistake—is that woman is nobody in the matrimonial partnership. Under the common law women labored un- der many dvantages. I speak naturally of women wno ere married. At common law man and wife are one person and ihe husband is that person. The legal relations, rights and duties of man and wife were then rehearsed as fived and defined by the common law. ‘What & marvel of prejudice it contains! ex- claimed the speaker. “)hlt & world of p‘riosgg! has been ma« o-day in our own beloved State little remains to prevent our transacting our own affairs, and the remaining obstacles need only be attacked to disappear. I have been told that you are interested in the law as it affects woman. I am extremely 1ad to hear this. Why should not women ow 8s much of the Iaw as men? It is not to the credit of a woman to admit her ignorance of law and politics. The “‘contented woman" should be waited upon by a committee and the error of her way pointed out. She should be made to appreciate and emulate the new "I hever could understand wh: never coul Wwhy any woman should confine her work to uu’}nnx’ ‘walls of her home. ButI would have no respect for ‘woman 'Who neglected Wie slighiest duip Conen, C. J. AS A PARTNER. I always had an equal | me, then | present her home and family. A woman’s duty to her partner begins with the betrothel and does not end until death. In discussing the marriage laws of the State attention was called to the omission of the word *‘obey” in the marriage con- tract. “It has also,” the speaker said, “been dispensed with by the clergy from the marriage ceremony since the arriyal of the new woman, who has come and who is here to stay.” = In speaking of the legal provisions for the dissolution of the marrlage contract Mrs. Foltz expressed the deepest regret that they should be necessary and prayed that the progress of human improvement would soon be such tbat there would be no cause for the dissolution of the mar- riage partnership. In conclusion she said: I am inclined to nk that when women Belp to make the laws and assist in executing them there will be fewer trivialities ellowed to control, and with women’s natural love for egal pesce and harmony there be less stri lients will be more frequently ady to make up. At the close of her lecture the members tendered the lecturer a hearty vote of| thanks for her entertaining and instructive talk.

His somewhat sardonic picture contairs humorous situations and | bright dialogne, and its whimsicalities forded plenty of amusement to the audi-| ence that almost filled the Baldwin Thea- | ter last night. Grace Holme, the contented woman, be- comes a discontented woman early in the play, owing to the exasperating coldness and condescending airs of superiority as- sumed by her husband, Benton Holme, who is running for the office of Mayor.

From that point on, Grace gives Holme many lessons, which makes the audience feel in- clined to say, “Serve him righ 1in fact, little pity is excited for the wretched man, even when his wife requests him to cook the dinner, in order that the maids may g0 out to vote—*“men do ‘everything’ bet ter than women,” she urges, quoting h: own words. After that he cannot plead incompetency, even in the culinary depart- ment. It is no exaggeration to say that Caro- line Miskel Hoyt, as Grace Holme, was a revelation. She is beautiful, but her power does not lie in her looks. She proved herself to be a comedienne, able to satirize in a refined, delightful and thor- oughly humorous manner, and that is a | power possessed by few men and fewer women. Indeed it is surprising how few actresses can just exaggerate a character through to make it a good satire withot descendine to caricature and burl Most of those who can, as Mr ‘Wood for instance, are very much more | mature and experienced than Mrs. Hoyt. | The conception of Grace Holme was womsaaly | winning, but 1t was full ot humor, in a word | it made the audience laugh, while it charmed | them and won their sympathy.
