THE GRAND CIVIC CENTRE PLAN. We the expanded plan of the Court House Board for a Civic Centre is eo far beyond probability of immediate realization as to seem more like a vision of dream land than a real project of New York improvement, it wfll be worth while to give it careful consideration and bear it in mind in future dis- cussions. It is an occasion for recalling the counsel of Josh Billings: “Aim high even if you fall short; the mam that tries to jump a hundred yards will make a good try.” Other cities have undertaken much larger plans of improvement ‘and have carried them out at a much larger cost than this will impose upon the city even if it have no assistance from the Federal Govern- ment as the present plan purposes to obtain, - Ideals are worth cherishing in mumicipal as well as in other forms of life. By merely mediteting upon them we grow toward them by a tendency of which we are often unconscious. The very fact that the great plan includes parks and other open spaces and a noble road- way to Manhettan Bridge Plaza, as well as sitea for public buildings, commends it to the mind that looks to see New York have as much dignity in its public buildings as in its skyscrapers and its railway stations. It is a noble plan, well worked out; a noblo city will work toward it. a THE SUFFRAGETTE AND THE MOB. EPORTS from Washington show that the crowds that thronged the strevts on the day of the suffragette parade were too large ‘to be handfed by the police. Also that in the interruptions of the march and the jostling of the throng a good many women wore hurt and some were mocked and jeered. It was, therofore, quite natural the marchers ehould have held an indignation meeting and denounced various officials and most men on general principles. The crowd, however, was mot e mob. It was filled with curi- osity and animated by a desire to see the marching women, no matter what happened. Many of them were unquestionably m sympathy with the women, The police did not expect the rush and were un- prepared for it. That’a the whole story. The ladies should not be discouraged. Fiery novelty when well advertised as a free show draws a crowd, and if the show fall in a holiday city, with a festal throng of idlers on the streets, the rush is apt to be a crush. Let the suffragettes console themselves, or raiher congratulate themselves. They were the greatest thing on the continent that day. , eer nt teen mene SOCIAL SERVICE AND CHARITY. Y THE work of its Social Service Exchange the Charity Organ- B ization Society has compiled a list of upwards of two hundred thousand individuals and femilies in receipt of charity, It is believed by those engaged in the work that before the close of the year the list will have a total of twice thet number. Fortunately the helpmg hand does not have alwaye to hold out food, or clothing, or medicine. Sometimes it can give work and employment that carry permanent relief. It is reported that out of 6,813 applicants for work, jobs were obtained for 3,995. This is by no means eatisfactory, but it is a clear showing of gain in the direction efeelt-help along with help that comes from others. A feature of the report not to be overlooked is the warning egain given to the charitable to beware of persons asking for funds tored tonat I might take «@ bite, just @ Hite.

ANTARONY, Heroine of Many Reforms. QUAKER merchant of South Adams, Mass. got into grievous trouble" with his fellow Quakers in the early days of the nine- teenth century on no less than three occasions. First by marry- ing a Baptist. The Society of Friends looked on this as a grave sin, Scarce had they forgiven it when a second offense was committed. The merchant actually dared to buy a cloak that had an ornamental cape. ‘To wear ornaments was regarded as most offensive to high heaven. But when he went a stop further and permitted dancing in his house the horror of the Quakers knew no bounds. They expelled him ignomintously from their “Meeting.” His daughter, Susan Brownell Anthony, inherited the old merchant's spirit of rebellion. It was part of her daily life as a child. And ehe was to use it one day against the world at large. In 1837, when she was seven- teen years old, ahe became a school teacher, Her pay was $1.60 a week and board. She sew men of fese intelligence earning many times more AlMeiong | monoy than did she, And her father's spirit of rebellion Battle, | awoke within her. While yet a mero girl she began her life- long battle. For years she toiled to give women a better place in the industrial world. And quccess at last followed her tireless labors —& euccess best summed up in the words of a historian, who writes: -—=. here is not a woman to-<dny in America who is not indebted to ‘Mifps Anthony's efforts for the equality of her wages and position. © * ©: Mer work brought reformns in the pay and treatment of women wage earnets and opened wider felde of employment to them.” 5 Then Miss Anthony began to take a leading part in the temperance move- ment, helping to found America’s first Temperance Society for women, Qchieving trementious results for the benefit of humanity. In the early §0's dhe ele threw herself heart and eoul into the crusade against slavery, “@he bombarded Congress with hundreds of petitions for the freeing of @leves and she spoke and wrote vehemently in behalf of Abolition. : It was at about thie time that her name first came into notice as @ Suffragist. For half @ century she pounded mightily upon the closed gates of the franchise, arousing @ometimes admiration, sometimes ridioulegzbut always attention. To help along hor beliefs she started a weekly paper, “The Revolution.” This was in 1868, an era when a woman newspaper proprietor was more than a carity. Two years later “The Revolution” went to pieces, leaving Mype Anthony $10,000 in debt for it. ta For the next ten years she toiled to pay off the indebtedness, lecturing five or six nights every week. She won thousands of converts, She alee won enemies, And once she was asked ‘in all @olemnity to deliver a Women's Rights lecture before the inmates of an insane asylum. But by 18 cent of her $10,000 debt, including compound interest, was paid. . Meantime she ran foul of the law. To test the “Fourteenth Amendments validity: ehe tnsisted on voting at the Presidential olection of 1872. She was promptly arrested. Thanks to her lawyer, ehe avoided going to Jail. When the date for her trial wae set @he undertook to preach Woman's Rights thropghout the whole neighborhood in order to make certain of securing a favorable jury. A “change of venue” (shifting the location of the propoped trial) Drought this plan to nothing. In the new locality Miss ee Anthony tried the same schome for impressing her possible Jurors. But when the case was tried the Judge took the decision out of the Jury's hands. He asked: "You voted as & woman, didn't you?" > “Nu, ein,” she answered, "I voted as a citizen of the United Staten” The Judge fined her $100, She retorted: “Resistance to tyranny {s obedience to God. I shall never pay one eBay of this unjust claim.” And she kept her word. The fine was nevor paid. And for some reason No especial pressure was brought to bear upon her to enforce @ settlement, though the male officials concerned in letting her vote are eaid to have been Ke severely punished. xs Miss Anthony dind at Rochester, N. ¥., on March 18, 1908, OOOREREEESERSEREDRLESOS ESAS SEESEES CORSO ESESOSESOES The Day’s Good Stories Mrs. Jarr Hears Tragic Echoes To the Point. end es trey, en UBLIO servants tn Boston ere markedly more Of That Suffragette Parade|P mwa A's A Transfer.
