Ono of the battling problems of city
government Is the Increasing number
of dependent children from whose
ranks child delinquency Is annually re
cruited. Krom delinquent children are
graduated annual levies of youthful
criminals whose career , once fairly be
gun , rarely stops outside a peniten
tiary. The committee on dependent
children of the charity organization of
New York City hns um.le a report
which throws some light on this prob
lem. The report alllrms that CO per
cent of the applications for tint com
mitment of children to Institutions are
due to desertion by the husband. Tlia
abandoned wife finds the struggle for
existence hopeless In that proportion of
cases and must part with her children

There Is perhaps no feature of social

demnation of any Institution , however ,
from the saloon to the spoils system ,
may icndlly lead to error If there is
my trulh In the old adage , we ought to
llnd that there are two sides to all
litest Ions-even to that of divorce. If
one comment es consciously to searcn
for the ndeeming features of the situa
tion he Is likely to observe n striking
correspondence between the Increase In
the employment of women tind the
growth of divorce. According to the
Kfderal census returiiR. the number of
women In the United- Stales having
"gainful occupations" Increased from

and to : j.M.R71 ! In 18110. It Is. of course ,
pofji ! > to Interpret the parallel be
tween this Increase of money-making
among women and the Increase of di
vorce In ( wo ways. A carping pessimist
may nay that It shows that independent
employment unlltfl women for becom
ing huifpy wives. A taste of the Inde
pendence and excitement of earning
their own living makes the traditional
ly felicitous state of matrimony Intolerably
ably dull to women , and hence they are
ready to avail themselves of slight
provocation to return to their former
state of single blessedness. Hut there
Is a more charitable Interpretation that
will also seem more Just to the great
majority of persona. Respectable worn
I en are by no means anxious to rid
themselves of their husbands , and If
they do so at all It Is likely to be lie-
cause of some .serious cause that makes
married life unendurable. Whenever
the man In any union lives down to his
reputation as the worse half and makes
ills wife miserable by dissipation or
abuse the average American wife doc.s
not feel It her duty to allow her whole
life to be ruined because she misjudged
the character of the man whom she
married. And In this stand she seems
to be supported by the sentiment of the
community as n whole , for most people
seem to feel that It Is belter fora wom
an to leave a thoroughly unworthy man
than to endure his mistreatment of her
self and her children ludetlnltcly. But
unless the wife has property of her owner
or can llnd fiome means of earning a
livelihood she may be compelled to con
tinue her life of matrimonial wretched-
ness. The fact that opportunities for
employment are becoming more fre
quent makes It possible In an Increas
Ing number of cases to choose the less
humiliating alternative of Independ
cnee. In so far , then , as the Increase
of divorce Is due to the fact that wives
are no longer compelled to suffer any
Indignities that unworthy husbands put
upon them. It Is a symptom not of mor
al degeneracy but of economic welfare.
Wives are more likely to be treated
with decent respect and consideration
when they are bound to their husbands
not by the fear of starvation but mere
ly by bonds of affection , lint like most
good things this greater Independence
of women Is callable of abuse. It op"iis
the dour to separations for which no
adequate provocation bus been given as
well as to those whit h the Impartial
spectator would regard as JustlUablo.

PAYING OIL WELLS OF JAPAN.
Modern Mctlimlg of Drilling Have Do-
i vcIopcU I'ctruleiiiii Industry.
Mr. Rentiers of the British consular
service In .lapan lias submitted to t'ae
British Board of Trade a report on
the petroleum Industry , which has of
late attracted much attention and
reached considerable dimensions in
that country. The only place in which
the oil Is produced In large iiuantltles
Is In the province of Hchlgo , on tbo
west coast , the center of the Industry
being the town of Arnase. where the
largest oil company In the country has
been at work since 1888 with machin
ery Imported from the United States.
| Here wells were dug lu the sea and
carried above the sea level by n douulu
rim' nt nlles filled lu with earth. In
the northern part of the province oil
was discovered In 1889 and led to .1
fever of speculation.
In ISOli there were between r.OO and
700 speculative companies with small
capital at work In Hehigo. and most of
them failed. On their ruins arose
large companies working on a great
scale nnd with Imported machinery.
Hand boring has almost ceased to ex- (
1st , and with Improvement In methods
of winning the oil came Improvement j
In the transport of the oil to the re-
llneries. Pipe lines were Inmxluood (
to convey It from the wells to the re-
linerels and frmn the latter to the rail
way stations , and It has been proposed
to construct a pipe line all ibo way to
Tokyo , the capital , about twenty miles
away.
Petroleum has also been found In
|
Yoxo , the northern Island , and It IH believed - j
lieved that the supply there Is as rich
as It Is In ISchigo. In one place in the p
Island wells have been dug and worked i
by band for some years. Here the oil
overtlowB Into the sea. and In stormy '
weather boats take refuge there on
account of the smoothness of the wat
er. In IS ! ) ! ) the total production of the
oil In .lapan was 18.8:5.'J..lin : gallons , uf
which 18.71H.1XIO gallons were p.-udue-

Attractive scarfs for walking
are now made of bright. Scotch effects ,
svitb the ends of the scarf frlngeif
plain or knotted. Another pretty
trimming used on hats of the simpler
order is 1 < osely woven gaUoon of a
mlrigliug of dull tinsel and Oriental
colors. This is much used as u uand-
Inu about the crown.
The storm veil has made Its ap
pearance. It is In reality two veils , ,
one the regulation comlpcxion type ,
and the other "f heavy chilfon. Tha
latter is draped over I ho t < ip of the
hat when not required to protect the
wearer's face from the sharp , cutting
winds and nipping trost.
. Tur trimmings are now very popu
lar , for the re.isiin that they are seas
onable. It cannot be d.timed that
they are warm , or even that there Is
any utility connected with their use.
Mitt the fact that they are seasonable ,
fashionable and pretty makes then-
desirable.
Gilt buttons are also fashionable
as a trimming. One waist of hunter's
green has as decoration a quaintly
landfill design of tiny gilt buttons
which are set on in groups.
