WOMEN IN STORES AKD
SHOPS.
If tke normal schools taught
girls book-keeping, many of them
could become clerks and book-keepers
ins"ead of trying to get
places as teachers, and wuen they
nud uo place opea to them turn
lug to the Btores and overcrowd
ng the,m, wr.tea Ida Van Etten,
the President of the Working
Women's Society of New York,
in an interesting article on the
"Women in Stores a&d Shops," in
hi August JUadies Home Journal
Girls hdve fe-v ipportuuit es to
prepare for positoi.8 that are re
munerative. The two or three
occupations which are considered
geuteel for womeu are overcrowd
ed, while there is often a demand
for girls aB feather workers, lor
example. If trades such as the
makiug of jewelry, surical instru
m'iits, aid similar manutcturee,
w-re iaught liere in tech ical .iiid
industrial schooli like those of
Paris, girls would receive better
wages lhau tht-y do now. Even.
mow girls of eqial ability make
more money iu factories man in,
stores, excepting few who have
positions ot trust. Occupations
like feather making are not over
crowdtd. 'lhe only trouble ib in
the dull stason, when there is
lack of pmplov meat, but the Wages
when there is work are sufficient
to enable a girl io get along even
if she is idle a part of the time.
Many provide tor ibis by learning
two or three tradB. Ou the
whole, the employment of women
in mercantile pursuits is undesir
able; it is poorly paid; it is not re
gulated by law as it should be,
aud while it is considered more
genteel than at the lighgt trades,
it is less remunerative. The long
hours that are exacted ot sales
women on Saturdays aud at holi
day times are not accompanied
by any extra compensation.
COLORED ATTORNEYS.
WHEN THE CORN IS ON THE
OTHER FOOT.
In the last issue ot the 13ee an
article was published condemning
(ome of the methods resorted to
around the Police Court by certain
colored lawyers.
Some ot whom the article had
no reference were loud in their
condemnation.
The Bee still maintains that the
diguity of the legal profession
should be upheld.
Some of these gentlemen said
that there are as many white law
yeis who do chapping as there are
colored.
While that may be true; the
class of white lawyers to whom
these gentlemen refer are second
class and have no standing in
court, as a number of them have
been brought before the court ou
this charge.
Mr. Pajton whostauds as high in
the upper court as he does in the Po
lice court, sustains the Bee in what
it said last wesk. He knows that he
has been compelled to call more of
these men to account, not alone for.
capping, but for other unprofes '
sioual practices.
No attorney is respected more
than law, er Hewlett. Judge Miller
some few years ago spoke in com
plimentary terms of him as being a
youug man of ability and i ush.
Lawyer Martin and one or two
r triers are to be'com mended.
The bulldozing methods that
Jsomeohers resort to when they
have occasion to address the court
show "that they have a great deal
to lerrn.
The colored liue should not be
brought up in a court of justice un
less it is shown that the court, the
( government or some one else re
sort to such me'uoas to prejuaice
the public, the court, etc.
There aie some colored attorneys
as well as white, the moment they
lose a case, the cry is the court is
ignorant of law, or the court is
prejudiced.
But, just let them win a case and
the court seemingly sustain any
point of law they make; O! "I
tell you judge so aud so, knows
the law,5'
There are some attorneys white
and colored whose offices are on
the front steps of the Police Court.
They stand there like hungry
wolves, ready to devour- every
person who may be brought up od
some kind of charge.
THEY SAY.
Miss Ida B. Wells is creatiug a
stir'iu Eigland.
What is the Lmd and Improve
ment Company?
Mr. Cleveland will not be bull
dozed. The President will not be urged
iu makiDg colored appointments.
Editor Ross is now loaded.-
He will not be downed and the
boys know il.
Negro democrats like some
negro republicans, divided.
What will the harvest be?
Watch your friends.
Your enemies you know.
Read the Bee if you want a live
aud w:de awake paper.
The plums are gening ripe.
They will noi spoil before fall.
The boys prefer to have a little
summer fruit siuc ihey diduot
taste the spring fruit.
Chief Clerk Carlisle means
busiuess all the time;
He takes no stock in people
who have not been used to some
thing, Peter H. Clark was wise and
went home.
Milton Turner is of the opinion
that he can make more time
among the Iudiau.
Turner knows a good thing
when he see it.
G-reat men never get tired wait
ing. The race is too prejudiced to
succeed.
Colored institutions should be
supported.
Judge Chandler issnl! "Var t'owu.
He will probably start a busi
ness. This is peculiar weather.
So are some men.
Some men cannot be honest.
If you have a good friend never
.desert him.
One good friend can do more
good than two enemies can do you
an injury.
It is a hard thing to find, a
friend in need.
Never be ungrateful to those
who have helped you in need.
The boys are about starved out.
A very few of them are in town
uow.
Messrs. Smith aud Shillington

They are living in nope.

quarter knot of speed in excess of "20
