With ihe widening of the avenues ! of employment hr women there should be more painstaking care up ; on the part of parents to pro ; vide against future contingencies by : so educating every girl in some use ful or suitable emplovment that she ahle employment that she 1 could t ake care of herself in case of j necessity. Uecause there are so ma- j ny more thino-s a woman may do in I these later days there is less excuse ' for neglect. Hvery woman should ho j a capable housekeeper. So much is ' rudimentid. i Hut it is never .uite certain until the marriage day may have been set ' whether a girl is destined to bo her own housekeeper. Too often it hap pens, even then, that marriage proves a failure: and the wife discovers, too late for remedy, that, instead of be ing cherished and supported, she must support herself and bear up under whatever additional burden the marriage relation may thrust up on her. Happy, then, the woman who in her youth may have acquired that mastery of her hands which will enable her to earn her bread and as sure her own independence and use fulness in despite of ill-fortune. Nothing is more pitiable than the ; cases of gentlewomen, brought up in ! luxury and rcnt idleness, who in their mature years are compelled to ! depend upon their own exertions for a livelihood. What can they do? They neither know how to teach, nor to cook", imr to spin, nor to scrub. They are incapacitated for any use fulness which they might exchange for bread and butter. Girls must be provided with occu pations. Money is no sure resource-. Marriage often proves a delusion and a snare. There is no in a knowledge of the surety exce-pt means or sen-1 support. Parents who give to their daughters such knowledge do better than to give them houses and lands. What they may know is a possession of which they cannot be deprived. If every girl born into the world for one gen, -ration could be assured of Mich capability as would enable her to make her own way in life by means of some useful employment, a long step would have been taken toward the remedy of many social evils. lie H A dispatch f: says: Twenty Ken! ucky a y ycd Ib-r Even.

News Picked up at the National Capitol hy our Resident Correspondent. Washington, P. C, June 2, 1894. The positive and emphatic denial of Senators Yoeirhees, Jones, Vest. Harris and MePhersnn, Democratic members of the Senate Finance eoni niitlee. of each and all of the sensa tional stories which have been print ed concerning the sugar trust and its alleged influence in the making of the sugar sc hedule of the tariff bill, has convinced all fair-minded people that the alleged sugar trust scandal bad no firmer foundation than the idle gossip of irresponsible persons, based entirely upon conjecture; and there is little room for doubt that the investigating committee will so report at the close of the taking of testimony, and that the report will be signed by every member of the committee. Present indications are that the Scotch verdict, ':not prov en," will be rendered on the charge that certain Senators speculated in sugar stock while the character of the suar schedule of the tariff bill was in doubt, on account of the difti cultv of abtaininr convincing cvi- ,i,.n, ..,,, n,., Si ihi. -et tt is -ener- uuy rt.o-lvtted, outside of the Senate, that the committee should have raistHl the old question of the right cf tj10 Senate to compel newspaper mon to r'ive the source of information r0Ct.;Vl.a i,v tln-m. in connection w ith this investigation. Xo good can come out of it. and. as Senator Hill aptly said, much harm may. Senator Tliil proposes to speak in the Senate this morning upon his resolution directing the investigat ing committee to hold its sessions with open doors, and Senator Palm er will also advocate the same propo sition. In view of the developments w hich are occurring in the committee room, there is a growing sentiment in favor of open doors. The state ment of Secretary Carlile that he had submitted a sugar schedule to the Finance Committee with inter lineations in his own handwriting, as has been asserted the testimony of Senator -McPherson that he has held su,,ar stoek ant iho assertion of Representative Warm of New I fW . ,tt o... I sugar interests endeavored to make him desist from his e fforts to secure' free sugar, have all become known, not withstandihg the fact that Sena tor Gray, who is the supposed mouth piece of the committee, took care not to mention them when he was giving out the ':purport" of the tes- timony for publication. In fact it j far brought e.ut nothing startling. - Thursday. killed Andrew has been so impossible to keep secret j The committee will visit Homestead j D wight and B.

He stated to the : Oflice department, and he has writ- j lHin" thrown from his heirse. Committee that he had purchased j 1. nun shares of sugar certificates, but j that he promptly transferred them j to his son. It also developed that the Senator purchased another block j of ."ou shares. He said that one j evenin" he and his son were liscus- I ing the advisability of investing in j some stocks. He de-niejj that he j spee-ulated in the sense in which that j word is generally used. He bought the certificates outright, but, of course, when their value increased to an extent to justify it, he sold the stock for the profit tliere was in it. On this occasion he and his son de cided that it would be a good thing to own more sugar certificates and they accordingly wrote out a tele-1 gram to their broker, directing him to purchase aOO shares of sugar for them. This telegram. Mr. McPher son said, was laid on his table, and they proceeded to discuss the matter further.

The best informed politicians here , . , , , -rT i-!, ,. aecome ; j a law by July 1st. But the passage of the tariff bill cannot be immediate ly followed by the adjournment of Congress, as a good many people seem to think. On the contrary, somo time must be occupied in the consideration of the appropriation bills of which twelve have been sent over to the Senate from the House. Of these twelve, only three. Military Academy, Pensions, and Fortifica tions have been reported, leaving nine still in the Committee on Ap propriations. The House has two still to pass the Indian and the General Deficiency. While these bills will doubtless be hurried through when they are reached, they cannot be passed much faster than one every two days, and this will oc cupy all the working days of a month. The bills are now being put in shape by the Senate Appropriation Com mittee, so that they can be rapidly reported whenever the way is made clear for them. The Southern Democrats in the House are making a determined fight to secure the repeal of the tax on State bank notes. The debate has been going on all this week and will probably continue for a week or ten days longer, .the unacted upon ap propriation bills having been tempo rarily laid aside. The result is in doubt, depending, many believe, on the attendance when the vote is tak en. If the attendance exceeds the probabilities are that repeal will be defeated, as the largest claim made by the friends of repeal is 140 votes. Hut inasmuch as those who favor the repeal of the tax are more interested in securing it than those who oppose it are in preventing it. the chances are in favor of the re pealers mustering their full strength on the floor of the House when the time comes to vote and winning, if they can get the 140 votes claimed. Some very interesting .and instruc tive speeches have been made by Democrats both for and against re peal. The Republicans have not up to this time taken a conspicuous part in the debate, although they are sol idly opposed to repeal. Representa tive Black, of Georgia, made a strong and bold speech in favor of repeal, in which he took the ground that the general government had no right!,, , , , . ,; .,.,; 1 a tax. and stated his belief that the i TT - ,, , j L. S. Supreme Court had no more i- i 4i , ,- ., ni it . . right to bind the action of the House! than the House had te bind the Su preme Court. Ihe investigation of the alleged armor plate frauds by the House! committee on Naval Affairs has so if anything more than was, found out by Se-eTetary Herbert's j ten a letter to Chairman Wise, of the House Conime-ive committee, giving his reasons. He thinks the Post Oflice de-part inent has all that it can do justice to in extending and perfecting the mail facilities of the ,.,u-nirv m-wl -i tin. viwik .f telegraph system would be out ef all proportion to the benefit that would be derived therefrom by the people.

New York, June 4, 1804. The recurrence of a general holi day, the continuance of the bitumin ous coal strike and unseasonable weather have combined during the last week to prevent any improve ment in the trade situation. Busi ness in most departments has reflect ed the actual wants of traders, and has been moderate in volume. In dustrial recovery has been retarded by labor troubles and the scarcity of sof 1 oul and coke. Uncertainty as to the business future restrains de mand in anticipation of fall wants; and as orders in hand approach com pletion some of the textile and boot and shoe manufacturers face the al ternative of making goods for stock or of curtailing production. The settlement of the tariff question, now aparently in near prospect, will re vive demand for many products the purchase of w hich has been delayed by the prolonged uncertainty about future duties. Stocks of manufac tured goods resting between mills and consumers are exceptionally small. Meihandise exports are of fair volume for the season, but low prices have reduced the aggregate value of the shipments, which for four weeks from New York alone have been 1,0,8,520 less than for the corres ponding period last year. Merchan dise imports in the same time have shown a comparative decrease of $17,4n2.040. But the dullness of the loan markets and the limited offer ings of new commercial bills have led to further gold exports, in spite of the heavy balance of merchandise trade against Europe. Business failures in the United States and Canada last week numbered 210. as against 2,"i0 during the corresionding period last year. According to R. G. Dun & Co., the liabilities of fail- ures in four weeks of May were $11.- 301,042, of w hich 4,443,fior were of manufacturing and $3.8.0(5,891 of traeling concerns: but reports yet t : come in may increase the aggre gate for the month to 1 4.000,000. Cotton prices have advanced J eif a cent, as a result of more encour aging Liverpool advices and a slight ly improved demand from New Eng lanel and Canadian spinners.

Wheat prices have eleclined U cents tier bushel, and a new low recoriT' has been established in East ern markets, while. Chicago quota tions have fallen to within a small fraction of the lowest peiint touched during the present crop year. The depression of value's has been due to continued liepuielatiou anel the ab sence of new investment demand, which has been discouragoil by the general trade dullness, the nearness eif harvest anel the apathy ef foreign buyers. Wheat crop prospects in this country have not been impaired by recent weather conditions, and the general outlook is favorable. En glish markets have been dull, anel prices have cemtinued to te-nel down ward. Corn prices have rulenl compara tively steady, in the face of liberal Western receipts and the fall in the wheat markets, mainly because un seasonable weather has retardeel the growth of the crop, although no evi dence of any important damage has be-en developed. There has been a fair consumptive demand for corn, and a moderate inquiry for small steamer parcels for export. Yalues of hog products have not niate'rially changed. Speculation has been em a restricted scale; but there has been a steady distribution for home consumption, and exports have continued to compare favorably with the shipments for the corresponding pcrioel last year. The scarcity of fuel has continued to embarrass the iron and steel in dustries. Additional furnaces have been compelled to shut down, and the output of finished iron has been further curtailed. The volume of business has fallen off, on account of the inability of stime manufacturers te make prompt deliveries. I'ralxetl Whenever I'wd. ('. L Seaver. of ljirininglnin.
