Mr. Maynnrd says he has recelved
HHsuiances from a number of ofllcials
that they wlll urge the passage of tho

the Navy wlll do all he properly can
do to secure thls tract for the govern?

The most serlous obstructlon to the
jiassage of tho bill wlll bc found ln the
"iJnct that there Is a deep-seated' pre
'judlco in Congress against any thlng
wlth Jamestown Exposition connected
wlth it. Thls was manifest ji'hcn the
promotors of the exposltlon were try

tho exposltlon owes the government on

WOMAN AS WE KNOW HER
In Sermon at Grace-Street Baptist Church Rev. Dr.
Ramsay Replics to Coroner Taylor s Recent
Address Before Mcdical Students.
I At tho Graco Streot Daptlst Church
llnst nlght, "Woman Aa Wo know Her:
Un Appreclntlon," was the subject of u
!sermon hy the pastor, tho Rov. l>r.
!d, M. Ilnmsay. Though not Intended
'prlmarily ns n roply to the address of
Dr. W. It. Taylor before tho Modlcal
College of Vlrglnia a few days ngo,
! tho cllscourse esalted tho other sldo of
tho femlnlno nature, the t-penker rc
plylng In terms to somo ot tho cor
oner'a thrusts.
^Dr. Ramsay took hls test from
Psnlms, cxliv. 12: "That our daughters
tuay. be as eornor.fltones, polished after
tho slmilltudo of a palace.'* ln dls
cusslng hls subject, Dr. Ramsay salJ:
"Tho patrlotlc Psalmlst, knowlng tho
large placo held in a great natlon by
woman, is here statlng hls glowlng
' Ukai for womanhood In Israel. It U
not posslble to exaggerate the Impor?
tance of woman In our natlonal llfe.
Thls ls true lf wo thlnk only of her
economlc place and valuo. Sho Is now
;n mlghty factor In the world proccssea.
Flfty years ago there was scarcely
nn occupatlon open to her beyond hor
home. except that of school teachlng,
and now there ls hardly ono closetl.
It Is already too late to debate whethor
women can do the things whlch men
used to do. We know that sho Is al?
ready dolng them surpnsslngly woll.
A recent dlscusslon of the subject of
woman In our clty, as -reported by a
leading and reliable Journal, scetns to
disparngo woman.- Let us see.
Wonian'-i Poeltlon.
"Many of us now llvlng who are stlll
young- remember when a very dlfferent
opinlon was held of the business abil?
lty of women from that whlch now ob
talns. Much stress was laid upon hor
superb and almost supernatural powers
of Intuition, but at the cost of her
reason. It was thought, It would seem.
that she saw without oyes, knew with?
out ratloclnatlon, nnd thought without
logle. Thoro was a tlme ln the more
dlstant/post when she waa thought
not to have a soul, and now wo are
sometlmes ready to exolalm that she
alono has a soul; Rnd lf we know what
the phllosophor Emorson mennt, we
would say tliat nhe possessed that
dlvlne oversoul of whlch ho wrltes
wlth such profundity. Then thev sald
she could not koep a secret; now wo
know that the socret of the Lord dwolls
In her revorent splrlt. It was oven
afflrmed. as a conclualve ovldenco of
her practlcal Inefflclency. that sho could
not sharpon a poncll; ana now it ls
admltted'that she sharpens overvlhln/
that she touches.
it was charged that she fled Incon
tlnently before an approachlng mouse;
atterly she has been malnly useful In
kceplnsf tho wolf from tho door. and
not irifrequently sho must llve wlth a
bear. Then sho was thought t* bo
profltablo only for sowlng seeds In
the youthful mlnds of the home: now
her husband has discovered that she
is useful for harrowing also.
"Physlcally, woman Is at a dlsad
vantage with man in taklng her place
I in the business world.' Thls Is one of
the reasons for her being the reclpl
ment of man's chlvalrous regard ln all
civllized lands. On thls subject we
are fortunate in having some data
gathered or late by patient sclentlflc
students ln the new sclence of psycho
physlcs, showing the essentlal differ?
ences of the two sexes. Physlcally,
the average man Is two and a half
tlmes stronger than" the average wo?
man. Men have always grotten the
! start of women, It would seem. As
the flrst or the race was a man, so
the rule ls that the flrst chlld ln the
! famlly Is a boy. There are more boys
born Into the world than glrls, so,
mstrlmonlaUy. there are enough to go
around. A girl's head grows ln length
until she ls eighteen years or age. and
at that time sho is longheaded enough
to get marrled; but she should be
enreful not to be headlong In the bus?
iness
"Yet, notwlthstandlng these compar-1
atlvo disadvantages, our slsters have
a large antl honorable place In the
modern business world. In the Unlted
StateB 5,000,000 glrls and women wlll
go to their work to-morrow morntng.
of whom more than 8,000 are surgeons
and physicians, more than 1,000 are
lawyers, nearly 1,000 dontlsts, more
than 1,000 archltects, and nearly .4,000
nre clergymen.
Mental Equlpiuent.
"Furthor, le( us see what woman's
equlpment ls. mentally, for her tasks.
Here the. comparlson of the sexes ls
lnterestlng.. Whlle man's braln ls
larger, woman's ls heavler ln propor
tlon to slze. It has been satisfactorlly
I demonstrated that the welcrht of the
j braln is an Important factor ln deter
mlnlng thought power. Her braln ls
sald to be 7 per cent. heavler In pro
portlon to total wetght of the average
braln of man and woman. There seem
to be three factors ln thougrht power,
namely, the gray matter, the depth of
the conyolutlons and' the- relatlve
weight tn proportlon to bulk, ahd ln
all these respocts woman's braln makes
a llne showlng. Those who hay* heen
conductlng those expertments ? have
reaohed the concluslon that our etsturs
excel in memory. lt ls an lnterestlng
fact that the world'B reoord for mem?
ory ls held by an actress. Mlss Victoria
Bateman, who remembered the gequenca
I of 133.000 words. with thelr svnonyms.
belng several thousand words more
than are ln Vlctor Hugo*6 'Les Miwor
ablee.'
"At the Medlcal College, ln Cb,arl?*?
ton, S. C last May I saw a young wo?
man awarded the cup as the highest
honor graduate of her class over m >re
than twonty young mon. It must be
admltted that thls is not a bad show?
ing for woman's mentallty.
"But morally and rellglously, wo
know that woman ls at her best. Wo
make the statement based upon caro
rul gathered facts when we say thut
she la no defaulter, always pays her
debls, nelther accepts nor glves brlbos,
atul knows nothlng of 'graft' and
'rako-offs' In buslnesa and polltics.

that come after hlm the noblo qualttlei
of heart and braln that made hlm th?
leadcr of thls bar and of tho bar ot
thls State. - ?
Frank Wood Chrlstlan was born ln
tho- clty of Rlchmond on tho 8th day
of January, 1851. and dled at hls resl?
dence tn thls clty on tho 13th duy ol
January. 1903, ln tho flfty-clghth ycat
ot hls age.
Ho was prepared for the University

as well as Chrlstlan 1 ?ve l e.i!?. ?ori*
gave col ir to that slngular blend'np
of mental power and moral force that
afterwards so dlstlngul.-hod the man
I and the lawyer. Hls career at the unl
1 veralty waa marked by the same suc
- cess that had attended his graduatlor
1 at thc Rlchmond school. Poverty
' whlch was the common herltage of al
j of our people in those years. compellct

? ln sovcral of Its schools. Hls class
' matcs, one and all, dellght to recall
? tho impresslon whlch he made at tha'
' early date for thoroughness of acqulsl
j tion and contempt for superrlclal
knowledge.
Young Christian, ln order to enauie
hlm to return to tlic anlvcrstty for
the law course, took up tcachlng. In
some respects hls tcmpeiament was not
sulted to the conflnement of the school.
room, but the wrlter has often heard
hlm speak of the advantage whlch he
thought such training was to a lawyer,
and especlally. to ope who'had to un
ra?H the Inirlcaclos of a hotly con
u-stedeommon law-case. so as to con
vlnce the understandlng of the averaffe
Juror. After graduatlng ih law at, the
Unlverslty of Virginia, ho began hls
professlonal career In thls clty. Hls
flrst partner wa.-Mr. C. C. McRae. a
successful chancery practltloner. After
Mr. McRac's death and upon Judge
George L. Ohrlstlan's rotirement from
- the bonch, he formed a partnershlp
wlth hls relatlve. which. after a quar?
ter of a ccntury. death has pevercd.
Mr. Christian early dlsplayed the
charac'erlstlcs whlch marked hla pro?
fesslonal career. It was a llberal
i training In the study and presentatlon
1 of legal questlons, to follow hls method
of presentlng hls cases. He always

I If, we are to gauffe correctly bls
profo*>rlonal success, we cannot dwell
too long upon the possesslon hy hlm
of an almost perfect knowledge of
legal prlnclDles. He was never content
to slmplv discuss the bare 'fact? of *|s

too great. no preparatton too arduous
