The speaker put out an amazingly well molded foat and displayed n thin woven silk BtockliiR and a Cromwell slipper, made lialf of white i;luce kid and half of black patent leather.

"Tho movement for what some of them nro pleased to term their "emancipation" began years ago in England, but tho first frulU were In tho far west. When women wore mndo eligible to Jury duty In Wyoming It was tho general bellof .that tho men would havo to wear petti coats nnd rock tho cradles whllo tho women attended to public affairs, Uut this and other predictions of a similar character wero not verified. In somo of the Kocky Moun "tain states when tho right of .suffrage was .conferred upon the fair hcx It was at first! bello'vcd that It would bo futllo for nn old and bnldhendod man to run for oftlco against a young man with hypcrlnn curls. Some thing of this kind did happen nnd when women themselves beenmo candidates for olllco thoso with Grecian profiles, Titian hair and well rounded figures got tho inn Jortty of tho mnscullno votes. Now many women nrn occupying high odlclal position nnd men nro not rocking cradles any moro than they did afarotlme. Tho latest manifestation of the spirit of tho now woman Is, of nil placoa In tho world, In Ixindon. Tho Hrltlsh Houso of Commons, by a voto cf nearly two to one, has carried to Its second reading a bill making women eligible to tho ofticcs of al dermen nnd councilors In tho borough coun cils, of tho government of London, nut tho most remnrkablo of all the movements Is tho reported Intention of a man in Omaha to write a woman's bible. Whether tills Idea was suggested to him by tho an cient "Breeches Blblo" doe not appear. Many years ago two gcod old maiden wo men In the state of Connecticut conceived the Idea that If a woman was compelled to pay taxes alio would bo permitted to vote, but tholr votes woro refused. When tho tax collector eatno around thoy refused to pay tho bill and ho carried off n cow. Year after year some of tholr property was seized for taxca and then they deter mined to ppend all tholr wealth In publish ing a trntiHlatlon pf tho blblo which they mudo themselves. Whllo the new transla tion was mndo ns favorablo to tbo woman's ngnis puny n puuaiuie, ami u uo hui i known f a woman's bible, but It was In- tended to bo a literal translation. Tho Omaha roan, on the other hand, '.a to depart from tho old book ontlroly und produce ono which shall bo fitted for uso as a campaign book for tho woman's rights party. King James' bible contains many things which nro dlitnsteful to tho new woman, St. Paul, whu was an old bachelor nnd talked with remarkable freedom about the women, un dertook to give his views upon their dressea and ornamentation and oven went so far iu to suggest that they should learn not to usurp authority over tho man, but to bo In silence. He nlso said that If a woman wants to learn anything uho should osk her huaband at home. St. Paul had no oxper lenco with women or ho never would havo said that he had power to lead about n wlfi If he had hud a wife he would not havo teen so sure. All theso things will bo omitted from tho expurgated woman's bible.

Tho lines of chaperonnge aro being drawn even more closoly than in tho old days, nnd tho dllllcultics of ! chaperonngo have been Increased at an ap palling rate. Tho combination Is making llfo hard for n 'hest of elderly nnd well meaning Individuals who havo earned a right to rest. In tho ca3t, reports tho New York Sun, tho chaperon has always been a more im portant figure than In any other part of the country, but now her sway Is making Itself felt irioro and moro throughout tho west, ia i,.n.mi.f. ,,n inaip.ipnt oven n tin n.iti, heath. Tho fact Is probably th ' result of a revulsion of feeling, a protest against tho rather startling uneonvcntlou- nllty of tho new girl, and as bueh Is a tribute to tho underlying common sense of modern mothers.

On the curb ami has a deen-rooted couvlction that sho ! stonu ton girls were lined up with their knows moro about llfo than her mother oven dreamed. From tlmo Immemorial tho young girl has been nn uncertalu quantiiy In matters of discretion, nnd modern edu cational methods, whllo extending tho prob lems, do not seem to havo Increased th discretion lu duo proportion. Naturally, some." departures from conven tion aro permissible now which wcro not known formerly. Tho bicycle had much to do with that. Even the best-lutontloned chaperon, If elderly, felt her resolution Hag when confronted with a wheel. Girls would rldo and men would rldo with them, and the rational chaperon drew her philosophy around her llko a mantle and waited with tho best grace, poiwlblu for hor charge to como back within chaperonngo llmlta. The passing of the bicycle Is lifting a mighty load from tho mind of tho conscientious chaperon, but she still has troubles of her own. Golf doesn't go hard with Iict It sho Is of the smooth-running variety that Is con tent to sit on tho club veranda and drink Iced tea, but they are martyie to duty who either play tho gamo or trail over tho links with tho girls, putting a damper upon all tho dollghts of golf flirtation.

Tho trials of a chaperon who takes six or seven girls to a college promenndo aro be yond telling. Oh, thoso teas In collego rooms! and thoso walks, and those drives, und those dances, and thco verandas, nnd thoso banjo concerts, and thoso junketings In tho wee sma' hours! Argus himself couldn't effectually fill tho chaperon's role. Sho must put her conscience to Bleep or Bhe'll havo no sleep herself. One New York womnu who chaporoned eight boarding Bchool girls on a promcnadn trip this season camo home at tho end of Ave nays and promptly had n caso of uervous prostration. Tho up-to-dato method of managing such an expedition la to tako two chaperons. Ono can watch 'and ploy figurehead whllo the other sleeps and In that way both may survive. Tbo boarding school chaperon is, perhaps, tho hardest worked of her class. Sho la strictly responsible to tho powers upon whom her slavery depends, and sho usually has a largo crowd of most Irreprcsslblo young women to handle. Tbo tactful reprca- s.on of a n ti m brr of school girls requires diplomacy of u raro quality, and tho schoo ibaperon who keeps the girls' liking nnd jet rules with a firm hand Is n nnster strategist. The youngest teacher In the school Is usually in demand for chaperoning purposes.

So sho Is Invited to go to theater and dinner, nnd sho shops with them, nnd she chaperons them to teas and muslcales, and, if ever popularity was costly, the popularity of that young teacher costs her dearly In ono of tho uptown boarding school tho Rtory of a certain teacher's first chap cronlng s still told with chuckles. Sho was very young, and sho had liked men herseif In her other Incarnation, and, when sho first appeared in tho bchool, the glr's marked her for their own. On tho first Friday evening of tho term sho was told off, by request, to take ten girls to a Hroadway theater. Sho didn't havo any Idea of the ctlquctto of such n contract, but tho girls ran things to suit themselvoj, and, until tho piny was over, nothing un : "anal happened. The crowd poured out Into (the lobby and tho little teacher and her ten ! charges went with It. Suddenly, across tho lobby, she saw a familiar face, A man she had known well, In her south ern home, was smiling nt her through the crowd. The forlorn little woman's faca lighted up. Sho moved toward tho old friend and ho pushed his way toward hor. Thoy, figuratively epcaklug, fell upon each other's necks, and steppod Into a corner out of tho tide of the crowd. Doth asked questions, nnd gosslpped and beamed, until, after llvo mlnutos of unalloyed delight, the young teacher gave, n frlghteuod gasp. Sho had suddenly remembered the glris. Thoy I j'wero nowhere within sight. isions of tho.r arriving at the school without her, and of ! subsequent explanations, flashed through j her ht-ail. nnd Bhe plainly saw her probablo , finish. Breaking away desperately from tho i surprised young man, she lied toward tho eyes Iixeil upon me uoor, aim ixii.i jbim: , smiles spreading over their fnces. Solemnly I they fell In In double file before tho uearlet faccd and mlserablo little teacher.
