Thn republican primaries are to be held In
the various wards tomorrow evening , and
at that time delegates arc to be elected to
the county convention. As the latter Is to
bo hold for the purpose of nominating dele
gate ! to the Mate convention , where a can-
dldnto for governor Is to b : chosen , there
Is an Imrncnce amount of hustling being done
by the partisans of each of the candidates.
H In not work of the brass band type , and
people generally might not know that there
Is anything specially being done. But com
mittees are at work , nevertheless , and It Is
safe to pre.dlct that the preferences of nearly
every republican voter of the city will bo
ascertained In the next two days , and If he
has no preferences some will be given him
ready made , with an Invitation to attend the
caucuses.
Both Harlan and Drake are strongly rep
resented In town , but McFarland Is also ex
pected to surprise people. The friends of
the two first , however , claim that McFarland
will not slip In unlcts by a pure accident ,
and profess to believe that Pottawattamle's
delegation will bo divided up pretty much
between them. Much quiet work , however ,
Is being done by the McFarland forces ,
General Drake. It Is said , Is to be here In the
near future to fulfill the promises ho made
to some of his friends on the occasion of ble
first vlclt , but none of his friends claim to
have any knowlcgde of his Intentions.

WOMEN AT WORK.
StiitUtlci of ttie IrtTitston uf the Province
Monopolized bjr Mnn.
The real and or.ly new woman Is the busi
ness woman ; and how far she Is Invading the
province formerly monopolized by m n maybe
bo perceived by n glance Into a recent cen
sus bulletin , says the Philadelphia Record.
Of the total working population of the United |
States In 1890 there were 3,914,711 females to
18S20,950 males. This numbsr of women In
business employment represented an Increase
of 2C3 per cent In the female Industrial army
during the prevhus decade. The Increase has
undoubtedly been for greater during the pail
half decade , however , than during all the In
terval between the censuses under compari
son ; and with a Just equality of wages between
women and men It may not be long before
there will be an equality In the numbers of
tlie two sexes In the Industrial world.
Among Pennsylvania's total female workIng -
Ing population of 1,959,091 , there are 323,951
registered as In actual employment about 20
per cent of her eligible workwomen. It Is
curious to note the various figures for the dif
ferent trades , professions anil pursuits not
only In this state , but throughout the union.
Broadly stated , there ore 1,027,525 women en
gaged In the manufacturing and mechanical
Industries of the United States , 679,509 women
carrying on agriculture , fisheries and mining
( there are 219 female cool miners ) , and 2CS-
726 In the professions. This latter
flguro will seem surprising until It
Is remembered that 243,230 women
are teachers. The army of professional
women , exclusive of these school-serving
sisters Is , however , 23.49C at the minimum
estimate , almost as large as the standing
army of the nation Itself. The leading fe
male occupation Is still the old-fashioned
domestic service , which numbers 1,205,876
women. There are , too , 32,593 boarding
and lodging house hostesses. Dressmaking
claims the hands of 288,155 and In Its com
panion work there are 145,716 seamstresses.
The old business of saleswomen numbers
68,449. Thus the bulk of the female workIng -
Ing population Is still to be found In the
old pursuits , which , of course , has been In
evitable.
In stenography and typewriting t'ne fair
PCX outnumbers the stern BOX two to one.
There are 21,185 clickers of the typewriter
Keys. Among the queer new lines of work
there may be mentioned 129 butchers , 191
carpenters , elghty-thrco undertakers ,
twenty-four hostlers , four locomotive en
gineers , fifty-nlno blacksmiths , two auc
tioneers and one pilot. Mlrabllc dlctu ,
there are said to be 237 female hackdrlvers !
As for the professions there arc 3,910
actresses and 1,235 clergy-women as an anti
dote ; 4,555 female physicians and surgeons ,
337 dentists and even two female veterina
rians ; 208 female lawyers , 22 architects , 883
Journalists , 6,7H literary and scientific women
and 10,810 devotees of the arts. At a cur
sory glance It seems plain that the new
woman Is fa t conquering an Indisputable
place for herself In the professions , If some
what debarred from the larger practice of tht
trades. .
DEADLY DISEASE OV THE TIMES.
The Great lnciv BO In the Number of Cisci
o ( I'ureKlH
In connection with the cock-sure stntemen
cf Mr. Howclls , says the Medical Record , tha
the present race was never so healthy am
strong as now , It Is Interesting to read thi
following paragraph written by Dr. T. S
Clouston , superintendent of the Mornlngsldi
asylum , Scotland. He says :
"One terrible form of brain disease , will
mental symptoms. Is certainly Increasing
* * * Thai malady may be described as i
breakdown of the great center of mind am
motion In the brain ; It always goes on fron
bad to worse until It renders Its victim ut
terly helpless. In mind and body and kill
him In a few years. No cure and scarce ! ,
any mitigation of this latter-day curse ha
yet been devised. It Is a disease of cities , c
restless lives of active brains In their prime
sometimes of dissipation and debauchery , o
life at high pressure commonly. "
During the past year the asylums of Scot
land received 160 new cases ; these of Eng
land , 1,400 and those of Ireland , fifty-tw <
The asylum statistics ot this country show a
even greater number.
In a single asylum ot this state , for en
ample , that of Ogdenburg , there wer $ omen
C59 admissions thirty-one cases of genen
paresis. This would make the proportion (
general paresis over 4 per cent.
Among seven state asylums , to which 1,9
patients were admitted In 1890 , there wei
sixty-six cases of general paresis , or a llttl
over 3 per cent. If 4 per cent bs the gencn
ratio for this disease In the state of Nc'
York , then the total number of paretlc
among the 16,000 Insane would be about 64i
As a matter of fact , the number Is greate
because the proportion of this disease Is largi
In the New York and Kings county asylun
than In those of tha state at large. IH
even If there were but 4,000 cases of generi
paresis amonp the 100,000 Insane people i
this country It would bo an extraordlnai
evidence of the development of a dlseai
which In the last century was certainly m
known , even If It dU exist.

In the important battle o ( next year. "
John Grant , chairman of Texas state exe
cutive committee , sent greetings of the re
publican organization of the Lone Star state
and said : "We are for protecting America
and Americans ; we are for maintaining a
ICO-ccnt dollar , white , yellow or green ; we
are for republicans , whether white , yellow or
black ; we are for the constitution and the
red , white and blue. "
Chauncey M. Dccw wrote : "I deeply regret
gret my Inability to stop over a day In
Cleveland and mlclreis the convention , but
my Nashville engagement took one day
longer than I expected and Imperative en
gagements In New York , which could not
be postponed , made It necesiary for me to
como straight through. All republicans are
rejoiced at the great strength and auspicious
beginning of the convention. "
T. U. Reed , Maine , wrote : "I am very
much honored by your Invitation , but It
would bo Impossible for me to accept on ac

Gcvernor McKlnley wrote : "I am In re

my promise absolute , yet I beg to advise you
that In all probability I will do myself the
honor of accepting your Invitation at some
time during the convention. "

FLOOD GATES OPENED AGAIN.
The roll of states was called for resolutions
to be read and referred without debate. It
was thought that most of the pockets had
been emptied during the morning session ,
but the call brought out resolutions by the
score on every conceivable Issue or'toplc.
Those on the financial question were for
the most part duplicates of those offered
earlier In the day nnd were referred by the
bushel to the committee's waste basket.
Some sarcastic resolutions were offered on
the silver question , one calling for 50 cents
worth of silver bullion to be made a legal
tender dollar. Numerous resolutions were
oftered asking the national committee to havt
the next national republican convention held
at various places , but all were yelled down
before the reading could ba completed.
The committee on league work reported a
gratifying and rapidly growing Increase In

ably startled by the discovery that flty
Treasurer Anderson has been psrvlnn for over

able accident the council appro\cd his old
bond again on the supposition that It was a
"new one. The mistake has Ju t bc.'ii dis
