Do you ride down town in the

merchant of a Times man yesterday.
WelLif yoa do and you have reached
that age- of mature infancy where- you
'begin to take notice' of -sgr. you cant
help having been struck by the fact that
many of the women who happen to be
your fellow passengers wear wedding:

especial attention to the wedding ring,
feature of this particular class of women
is that the ornament -indicates that the
wearer is married; so that die prevalence
of wedding rings on the hands of the

the home that is popularly supposed to
he the sole proper province of the mar

as BYPLOYxa's openow.
"If you. go into the great stores and
shops and offices where women are em
ployed you will be surprised at the num
ber of wives and mothers you will find
there working at various vocations. In
fact, they are to quite an extent com
peting with the unmarried female work
ers in the struggle for employment. It
awnn ggd and strange that such dvid
be the rase,, but it is a fact that the num
ber of deserted or neglected wives in this
city is painfnlly large, and it is increas
ing. "Thus a new danger to die man who
can not do some special work has arisen.
Sot only has he to compete with hia own
and other fellows' sisters in an endeavor
to obtain work as clerk, bookkeeper or
salesman,, but other men's wives now
crowd in and swell the ranks of those
who can do only simple work and who
must have work at any price. The re
sult is the lowering of wages of tins
class of workpeople.'
A visit to some of die places where
many women are employed confirmed
tlm statements of the observing mer
chant. The manager of a big State street
dry goods store said:
"Yes, we have a good many married
women here, and we have applications
for places from many more. Indeed, it
secius that there are more wives than
ninilc'i now looking for work.
"An-1 iineli women are always more
persistent in their efforts to get work
than thfir unmarried sidters. Usually
they do not start out to find work in this
way until driven- to rt by necessity, and
then they are prepared to do anything
and take die smallest wages. Most of
the women who apply here are ladies
whose husbands have either left them or
provide so nieagerly for dieir support
that they are compelled to do something
to support diemselves. I am astonished
at the number of perfidious husbands
who are or have been in this town. But
one diing I can say. very few of diem
are native Chicagoans or even Chi
cagnans by virtue of long residence here.
They are usually young men who have
come here with their wives and small
fanaiKa from other cities or country
towns, and finding the burden of caring
tat a family in a big city rather heavy
cowardly fly and leave the poor woman
to do the best she can."

Most of tins class of out working wives
are young women who before-their mar
riage were engaged in occupations of
this kind. School teachers, clerks, ste
nographers, typewriters and saleswomen,
who have never done any domestic work,
find themselves unfitted for it and unable
to do it. Besides, it is disagreeable to

Amnng the injunctions laid upon the
applicant are these: He must prove by
documentary evidence or by witness that
some intangible difficulty exists between

existence in consequence is miserable.
He must produce a photograph of his

bates the question of his eligibility and
reports to die grandmaster.

Bayreuth was well selected by Wi

quiet valley, it is the place for "sweet

outlines of the blue hule that rise upon

skillfully set as the scenes of its uasst
operas. Probably no playhouse in the
history o the stage has been- more poeti-
contempTatibn and repose. At a mile's
distance from the sleepy little town, it
rests on a level spot near the crest of a
long vooded slope. A narrow avenue,
densely shaded, with a broad walk on
one aide, leads to it. The building itself,
an irregular mass of red brick and stone,
hlasps out in relief against the back
ground of. forest. Cultivated trees, arch
ed and trimmed, darken the ascent from
the town; but behind, old woods, with
unkept glades and tangled roads, mmgfa

The avenue curves to the right in

the public entrances are at the sides.
By this way all the carriages arrive, de

unload. A Lure proportion of these
persons are women and girls, attracted
by the prospect of seeing the fine turn

collection of toilet? than those which
gather there. It is like a dream of

young English lady, who was accom

appearance, and who might liave been
a daughter of the gods, she was so tad

surround her.
About a moment before the beginning
of die opera a little brass bmul blows a
note of warning from the front porch.
Then the doors are closed, and nobody
can get in thereafter until the end of the
act. So scrupulously is this rule ob
served that it ia said that a-member of a
royal family, a few seconds too late, was
once compelled to wait till the next act.
On entering one sees the audience stand

seats a chance to take diem. There are
no center aisles, ail entrance to seats

Suddenly down go the lights. That is

you arc wondering whence is to come the

from a flute is heard from somewhere

the full orchestra is in play.
The Interior is simply a succession of
raised seats, and not of the softest kind,
either, without side boxes or any elabo

persona can be comfortably seated, but
die auditorium looks to be much larger.
A performance lasts about five hours;
three hours of opera and two hours of
entr'acte. Beginning at 3:20, there is
an intermission from 4:30 to 5:20. and an

at an American railway restaurant. The
cafes are scarcely large enough to receive
1,200 hungry mortals, at one time, and
many, to avoid the crush, buy sandwiches
and go marching around the groves, sand
wiches in one "hand, opera book in the
other. On benches converSendy placed

of cheese and bread.
Every young man tries to get through
the eating part in half an hour, so as to
have the other thirty minutesfor a prome

plunge into the cool forest, and it is very
romantic in the ham laden air of the

Of the menaorkw that are the legacy
of the summer's holiday, to a very large
class of worthy workers, one there is
which holds a sting, and which, baa no
good raisoa d'etre. It is the remem
brance of the unwulingneas which char
acteriasd the graatissj of the wett earned
holiday. It w the memory of thegradg
ingness which arrompaniwi the permit
to leave the treadmul of fifty weeks for
the needed restfalness of fourteen days.
The trait which fads maw if staff na in
this sort of thine; ia net confined to the
counting room, or die office, but pervades
the home circle, yet in the former it is
most frequently met witiu. Bare, in
deed, is the employer that, when the
day of emancipation for a faithful derk
draws acar, sends that servitor forth
with a lighter heart because of the kindly
expressions which formed a part of the
"good-byj
On the contrary, the average employer

amvests his rwrnimsiua with a throw-a-eoaa4oBe
attribute. The fact that, the
toiler at the desk may be sadly at need
ef a holiday; that his close attention to
his duties has impaired the rTrrlkmrri of
his work, is ignored by das man whose
consent must be gained ere the holiday
is possible. This man beats only in his
narrow mind that he wul lose, for a
fortnight, the services of a valuable as
sistant; that the substitute is not so
familiar with the wavs of the oaace or
the store, and that, thereby, he. the
plover, is a sufferer, and the wheels and
cogs of hia office machinery may not
operate so smoothly. Sobs invests his
parting words with Store than a trace of
lus feeling of resentment, and the dawn
of ha clerk's vacation is bereft of sun

A Faraaat Tax.
The Chinamen in California, although
aliens, are obliged to pay a poll tax of 93,
if under sixty years of age. As they are
a thrifty people, inclined to save, and
not at all in sympathy with American
institutions, they do all they can to avoid
thia tax. Mr. Frank, an assessor in one
of tite mountain districts, had a good
deal of trouble one spring in Hrnling a
certain Chinaman. "Sam Lee." who was
on his bat.
He went to Sam's shanty twice; he
looked for him at the placer mines where
he "panned out his daily wages, but all
in vain. Sam managed to avoid the as
sessor. One morning, however, Mr.
Frank happened to meet htm on the
mountain road.
"Hello, Sam Leer said he, stopping
his horse, "I've been looking fa- you.
You must pay your poll tax $3."
"Me no payee; mo klixty-nine old.'

"Nonsense, you're not forty, and yon
know it. Come. You must pay that
tax. Out with it.'
"Me klisty-eiijht, urged Sam.
"Nonsense, I tell you. I know better.
"Me klixty-seven.' pleaded the China
man; and aa the assessor still shook his
head and looked commanding, he ran be
seechmgiy down die years from, "klixty
klix to "kuxty." But die majesty of
the law. as personified by tr. Frank's
unbending decision, at last awed him
Reluctantly he drew from ha blouse a
leather bag. took out of it three silver
dollars, and Iianded them to the asesbor
with tlits parting sliotr
"Melican man heap stoalee. What for
you no catch-um pistol-gun?"
Mr. Frank says that he has neversince
approached a Chinaman for hia poll tax
without remembering the time he wad
made to feel like a highway robber by
Sam Lee's demand. "What for you no

There are a great many more glas3
eyes in use than is generally uuaincd.
At one time a glass eyo was a conspicu
ous deformity, and many preferred to
do without such an unsightly substitute
far a lost organ of vision. But now there
la such endless variety in color, sm and
shape that when a man or a woman
loses an eye a glass substitute can be
provided which will defy detection. If
the muscles aru not entirely destroyed
by accident or disease, a glass eye can
be moved to a limited extent so that
there ia no cast or squint. Glass eyes
are made principally in Germany, and
there are several secrets connected with
the manufacture, besides which a great
amount of skill and practice is neces
sary. Recently some have been made
in New York and other eastern cities.
