RUSSIAN WOMEN'S DEMANDS
They Want to Have Their Statui
Fixed by Law.
RESULT OF TEN YEARS EFFORT
Absurdities of rresent Sltnatlon
Pointed Oat at First Alt-Itasalasi
Women's fonarress Trial
Marrlnarea Proposed.
ST. TETERSBfRO. Jan. M.-The first
all Russian women's congress has Just had
a husy week of general and srcHlonal
meetings. The l,2no delegates represented
the most diverse elements from the HnJtlc
to the Pacific
For ten years women have been trying to
hrlng the congress about. It Is not & by
product of the recent revolutionary up
heaval. Its program of business, drawn
up long ago, was distributed for debate
and decision to four sections. It com
prised: Woman's position In the family,
her wages, liberty and health when work
ing for her livelihood; her right to vot
and to have a share In clvto life, her edu
cation and the upbringing of children.
Russian women hold a different position
!n the scheme of society from the women
In other lands. In many respects It Is
more advantageous.
Thousands of them are employed In
banks and business offices In St. Peters
bun?. They do most of the copying and
typewriting In the government depart
ments. They form the corps of stenog
raphers who take down the official reports
In the debates In the council of empire
and In the Duma, They sell railway tickets
and sometimes they signal trains. They
are the cashiers at theaters.
Women doctors of medicine ore more
numerous and In better practice here than
in any other capital In Europe. Women
are being trained at the St. Petersburg
enKlneerlng institute in drawing architec
tural plans and in the School of Scientific
Design. Even In the vast network of vil
lage communities, which Is the essence of
Russia, women are accustomed, through
widowhood or the .failure of male succes
sion, to sp ak anl vote at the iisnt meet
ings where local life Is regulated.
What They Complain Of.
It was the complaint of the Women's
congress that such opportunities have been
accorded by the complacence of the men
and are not based on law. The recent In
stance was cited of the minister of educa
tion's closing to women students the doors
of university classes by the issue of a de
partmental order from which there is no
appeal, because some of them had been
proved to be members of revolutionary se
cret societies. In the mass of administra
tive precedents sanctioned by the Imperial
senate Btlll the supreme court In Russia
and Initialed by a success of czars,
which is known as the code of laws, the
status of women is nowhere defined.
The congress cited a flagrant case. A
widowed mother and two young daugh
ters have created for themselves in St.
Petersburg a small hosiery business by
which they live. The only son turned
out badly and deserted the family. To
secure themselves In their property, aa
they thought, the women registered their
shop In the name of a younger daughter,
as the one likely to live longest.
Three months ago this daughter was
attacked by cholera and ' died without
being able to make a will. Ail the regis,
tered property went by law to the son aa
the male head of the family. He ordered
it to be sold and appropriated the pro
ceeds, leaving the two women who had
made the business to start from nothing
and try to make a living again.
Advanced womanhood had her oppor
tunity at the congress to have her say on
the Institution of marrVagn. In Russia she
has got much beyond Osorge Meredith's
Idea of a terminable contract.

a I tlon to the music department of
" I The Bee. regarding the opera
season which closed hero in
long-drawn-out intermissions last
Saturday night. The letter contains much
that Is worthy of reflection and It would be
well if more people felt some senti
ments about operatic mftttars. and tired
them In the press.
The music supervisor of The Bee has
often written along the same line, but has
despaired of seeing In the near future, a
demand for the use of our own language
In singing. We can not go to dine without
either knowing the Freuoh language, or
running the risk of getting something ws
do not want, rather than display our lack
of French knowledge to the waiter.
If an American sings in foreign oountry
he must only slug the language of that
country, but sing It is well as a native,
or else he will receive scant courtesy.
Other countries are very Jealous of their
language and resent any bad pronuncia
tions by English-speaking singers.
But we, who boast of our Independence,
who brag of our supremacy, who talk very
largely about our patriotism, will pay good
money to hear people sing whole perfor
mances In foreign tongues which only a
few of us know.
We are getting worse Instead of better
ulung this line. Because why? Well Just
because our own people now go abroad
' and como back to ubo with the poison of
I enlnilty against the English language
' coursing through their veins. It is gio-
ti-sitie to hear Americans after a few yvar
j (or niiinths) abroad, come buck and find
that they cannot express themselves In
! English, and cannot possibly sing in their
i ow n language . iThe reason, of course. Is
i simple namely that such people cannot
"speak" their own language, much less
sing It.)
And worse still, are American composers
are NOW writing music for foreign words,
oblivious to the beauties of English litera
ture which could be found In the libraries
of their respective cities.
Of course one must take the trouble to
look for gems, they are not usuully to be
found In the 10-cent magazines.
Ldst season, from one of our leading
publishing houses In this country, The Bee
received a number of songs written by
American composers of the present day,
and found most of the songs written to
German or French text.
Now this is nothing against the German
or French text, but In all decency, why
did not these composers get the help of
some literature-loving friends, or English
literature teachers, so that they might be
directed to the writers who wrote songs
which are themselves veritable poems of
music, waiting for harmonious settings?
We must however, in hope of better
things, rsjoloe la Ue mafntfloeat work
with reoalottfwnt has bands.. It Mnoentad,
aa far aa concerned the man, to ts to be
returned on disapproval" matrlmotilai sys
tem. The woman could continue to experi
ment until she was sure she hsd found a
mate to her complete liking before enter
ing on a binding contract.
There ts no civil marriage for orthodox
Russians, and divorce for them Is still
a question exclusively for the church
courts. Separated households are con
sequently very frequent. The custody of the
children In these cases Is a problem for
which the congress failed to find a new
solution.
The most formidable Mumbling block
for the feminists was encountered in the
political section of congress. The leader of
the women socialists maintained that there
was no woman Question in the doctrines
of socialism. Her friends were united on
the subject, as they placed the two sexes
on complete equality.
This line of argument did not commend
Itself to the moderates In the congress. In
cluding several women of standing In Rus
sian society, who wished to confine the dis
cussions to the moral and physical better
being of their sex, but they were not able
to resist a resolution In favor of universal
secret suffrage for men and women alike.
Work anal Waaes.
In the section for women' work and
wages tha congress voted for an sight hour
day and specifically for an order making
It Illegal to employ women at manual labor
for a month before and a month after the
birth of a child. Moreover it asked that
women should not be employed In mines
or at occupations Injurious to them.
At the moment of closing the congress
an advanced spirit felt that a thrill was
wanting for a fitting feminist denouement.;
She called aloud for the abolition of cap
ital punishment.
Her unrehearsed effort brought tho In
evitable police official to his feet with an
order to close the meeting, as It had no
right to censure tha "existing order." As
the business of the congress was over the
Incident had no sequel and partook of the
nature, of a suffragette's parting shot at a
magistrate. Ri sped for the "exisilng order"
abroad was Insured by prohibiting the dis
cussion of a resolution approving Esigllnh
suffragette tactics on the ground that It
expressed censure of the government of a
friendly power.
Thero were io banners, but the eighty-year-old
mother of the movement, Madame
Kllosofova, received a largo collection of
original poems In her honor.
"VISITATION OF PROVIDENCE"
Absurdity of Attrlbntlnic Kvll to
bod Revealed to Those
Who Thlak.
Men speak of the earthquake In Italy, by
which multitudes perished, as "a visitation
of Providence." If any calamity happens
It Is a visitation of Providence or "the act
of God." Men are very quick to attribute
evil to God, but to claim the credit of that
which is good to themselves. If thv coun
try is prosperous it is the result of tho
tariff, the wisdom of the lawmakers or the
energy and enterprise of the people. We
never talk of prosperity as a "visitation of
Providence." But If evil befall the land,
if there 1 war, pastllanca or famine or
death and destruction In casualties, then It
Is a "visitation of Providence."
Mr. John Wanamaker, the Philadelphia
merchant, undertook to convince the Young
Men' Christian association that the terri
ble earthquake In Italy was "a visitation
of the Almighty for disregarding the law of
Mount 8Uial." Among those who died In
that dreadful calamity were thousands of
Infants, who did not know their right hands
from the left and had never heard of the
law of Sinai. Did God visit death upon
these for the sin or the othurst "And Jesus
answering said unto them. Suppose ye that
these Galileans were sinners above all the
Galileans because they suffered such things?
I tell you, nay or those eighteen
upon whom the tower in BUoam fell and
slew them, think ye that they were sinners
above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem? I
tell you, nay." That was a distinctly dif
ferent doctrine from that which Is taught
About Music, Musicians and Musical Events
which Mr. Savage has done through his
opera companies and their opera In Eng
lish. It Is not yet perfect, but It Is a
great stride onward.
But enough. Here Is the communication
referred to;
"It Is to be regretted that not until the
very last day of their engagement in this
city did the Italian Qrand Opera company
Introduce to us works of suoh purely
Italian character aa Cavallerla Rustlcana'
and 'I Pagllacci.'
"It certainly Is wrong to waste the few,
the very few occasions for hearing grand
opera In this part of the country on
operas which have been heard here, tim
and again. This would be excusable had
the company something new to show us
In the way of stage manugement or novel
interpretation of works, which would be
able to grouse new Interest In operas
sung here many tltnis before by more
famous, It higher priced companies. It
oeruinly li to be depiorvd that a company
whose repertoire includes 'Othello, La
Boheme,' and 'Fedora, (the latter written
by the modern Italian composer, Utuberlo
Glordauo) should delight In repeating over
and over again such old familiar operas as
'Fa'ist' and 'Lucia.'
"Nowadays we are quite convinced of the
fact that the old Italian school of opera,
aa represented by Donnisetti, Bellini and
even by Verdi In the earlier period of his
life mesnt an accomplishment of the high
est merit for their time. But while the
present writer doubts very much whether
the Importation of foreign opera singers,
singing In a foreign tongue (practically
not understood by the laiger part of the
audience) Is calculated to promote the ef
forts now being made here and there in
tills country to create a national American
operatlo art, yet ha believes that the least
thing we can expect from musical organiza
tions coming across Is that they show us
the present standard of their own national
art; that Is, to show us that since the days
of old, when the old favorite operas of our
grandparents were written, Italy has pro
duced euually great. If not greater musi
cians, composers who know the secret of
keeping up with the progress of their time,
which had created a new form of operatic
art, that of the musical drama.
"It was Verdi who realized the great ar
tistic revolution that had Its center In the
small, theretofore practically unknown,
Prankish city of Bayreuth, and who, un
der the Influence of this newer, greater
form of musical art wrote his last works,
'AlUa,' 'Othello' and 'Falstaff.' Since then
Italy has given the musical world Pletro
Masgnl, the creator of the 'Verlsmo,' It
has produced Lieoncavallo and Qlacomo
Puccini, to mention only the three names
most prominent In the brilliant row of
great opera composers.
"Should It not be the mission of visiting
Italian operatlo organisations to make us
more acquainted with tha works of com
posers purely Italian In character and en
tirely modern In musical construction. In
stead of again singing to us the dear old
ever favorite" sextette from 'Lucia' and

You who seek ability here is some

There is a New Way in advertising
which is responsible for scores of the
greatest successes.
A New Way, created by us, which has
made our business the largest of its kind,
solely by astounding results.
A New Way which often makes one
dollar do the work of ten. Let us explain
it to you.
The Many-Man Power
We employ in our offices, both in New
York and Chicago, an Advisory Board.
These two boards together consist of
twenty-eight men.
Each of these men is a master of ad
vertising. Each is a man of vast experi
ence and of proved ability. Each has
won his place here through brilliant suc
cesses in many hard-fought campaigns.
All are high-priced men. It costs us
about $1 a minute to keep one of these
boards in session.
These men, in conference, work out the
campaigns which we undertake for our
clients. We bring to bear all their ex
perience, all their ideas.
The astounding successes for which
we are famous are due to this co-operation.
One-Man Power
Under the Old Way, such problems
were left to one man's solution. Most
agents do that today.

by Mr. Wanamaker. Of the twelve Apostles
only one died a natural death, and bo died
after a life which was a living death. All
the rest were done to death In tho most
cruel manner. Was that a visitation of tha
Almighty because they had disregarded the
the sad old story of Faust and Marguerite,
which really Is nothing more than a Ger
man dish served In a French, altogether
too French manner?
"The opinion of the present writer on
this subject certainly prevails among
singers themselves, for they seemed to
feel quite at home In their parts In
'Cavallerla Rustlcana' and 'I Pagllacci.'
They needed no artificial makeup to look
like what Is known as the typical Italian
peasant. Perhaps for this reason they dis
played far more temperament and true
Italian fire and gave a performance which
excelled anything they have ever done here
before. And It was a great Joy, Indeed,
to see the attitude of the Omaha people
who at this performance completely filled
the Boyd and In their enthusiastic recep
tion of the two works showed that they
certainly were up to a more modern form
of opera than was given them by the com
pany the two previous nights."
Yes, the correspondent awakens mem
ories of certain paragraphs printed In this
column Just last ye sr. along these ways
of thought. The singers do, as a rule, like
to sing the more modern things, and It Is
doubtless the old story of "money" over
again.
An ancient writer once said that "the
root of all evil" was the "love of money."
Not money, mind you, but Just "the love"
of It.
And so the operatic manager, loving
money more than music, and studying the
box-off les shret, rather than the stage.
simply presents the opera which, in his
opinion, will draw the muHt money. And
then sometimes nnnountes that "at the
request of the muaic-loving people" this
more "profitable" work will be pies-enteJ.
Tho only people who really promote
musical progress are the people who want
the newer tilings. Think it over. You will
probably challenge this. But. In the main,
it will be found Hue.
The people who want the dear old melo
dies are good, too; their place In the
scheme Is to hold a balance, so that the
greatest of the old masterpieces will not
be forgotten. But, It must be remembered,
these "old melodies'' were one time "new,"
and people of conservative tastes doubtless
disliked them as "modern," and wished for
the other "good old melodies" which their
grandfathers used to enjoy.
And the "new" things of today, will be
the "old" things of the next decade, so
that nothing is really entirely old or en
tirely new. The thing to be desired is the
capacity to hear. It is the "hearing ear"
that must be cultivated h we would enjoy
the wealth and treasure of the kingdom of
music.
A wise man once said: "The car of the
wise seeketh knowledge." It Is a strange
saying when one looks at It first. It Is
not: "The ear of the wise heareth," nor
is It the "mind of the wise serketh." But,
"the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge."
Tha wise geek knowledge by bearing. The

Want the Ablest Help
Sometimes the man is able, sometimes
experienced. Still it is one-man power.
One man never learns all the pitfalls.
The ablest of men has limited knowledge,
limited ideas and experience. And hu
man nature is too varied for any one
man to average.
Hut our Advisory Boards, in confer
ence, rarely make mistakes. And they
rarely fail to get from advertising every
latent possibility.
Under the one-man way, too many cam
paigns failed to return their cost. We
know that from our own experience.
Under the New Way, most of our clients
succeed.
Under the Old Way, we made but
semi-successes. Under the New Way
our successes are the wonders of adver
tising. Free Service
One duty of our Advisory Boards is
to answer for anyone any such questions
as these:
Can this article of mine be successfully
advertised?
Can this advertising of mine be made
more effective?
Such questions involve no charge, no
obligation. You are welcome to submit
them.
Another duty is to solve all selling
problems. The success of a campaign
often depends on that

which has befallen Italy Is a mystery. No
human mind can fathom the purposes of
the Inscrutable Providence no finite mind
can measure or comprehend the Infinite.

with submission and In the belief that all
things work together for good. Baltimore
