10 BROUGHT PEACE TO THE CITY The Effect of the New Woman in San Francisco CRIME YIELDS TO ALTRUISM Interesting Features of the Recent Woman's Congress •Jtterances of Susan Anthony, Anna Shaw and Other Feminine Human-, on the Tyrant "lan Special Corresponiiemc to '1 he Herald! SAN FRANCISCO. May 28.—The Wo man's congress has th is week taken the city of conclusions by storm, Keen the wave of crime anil suicide which has del uged us for weeks anil months past seems to have subsided before the triumphal oncoming of the new woman. Golden Gate hall with its seating capaoity of 1800 prove 1 totally inadequate for the need* of tho congress of 1895, though that, ol last year found the building amply sufficient. From the opening session last Monday morning the hall was packed, and be fore too hour for opening the evening meetings the stream o* people pouring toward the bull hug was met by an equal stream of people wiio wore unable to get in. Later the First Congrega tional church was generously placed at the disposal of the congress and i the number of people unable to gain an entrance seemed unabated, a vast au dince was accommodated at all the ses sions. All shades ami breadths of opinions have been tolerated, from tbe early lire brand which S:iim Susan B. Anthony threw into the convention to the conserv ative utterances of David st.irr Jordan. "Any woman." quoth Husan, (she is "Susan" to all the great admiring sister bood.) "any woman who has so little intelligence, so little sel -respect as to swear away tiie legal right t) ownership of her owifbody, to surrem er the legal Tight to the earning.- oi' her own hands, to enter into a relation in which if child- i ren are born to her she I as no legal right to their-guardianship, any woman. I say. who has so little self-respect as lo do that is unfit to teach any boy or girl any- ; thing." This was the summing up of Miss An- ; thony's opinion upon .the Bubject of child J culture, to which the eoTlgess gave its at tention first of alt As all roads lead to | Home, so all questions upon which the j uncompromising Miss Anthony is.asked to speak, lead without ceremony or apol ogy to woman s rights. No one laughs sooner at this peculiarity than Susa i her self, who relates how Sirs. Stanton and others, who have gone about, with her, have trembled betore her readiness to mount the platform to discuss matters about which she had never heard nor read. "I have never been at a loss, never theless." she continue.-, "for something to say." And if by any possible complication of | circumstances Miss Anthony should bo i unable to talk, she has a lady by her side who is perfectly competent to till all de- j riciencies. This is the Rev. Anna li. Shaw of Massachusetts, who came to the [ coast, she says, to hold Susan's bonnet. > and whom that lady has been pleased to | introduce from the platform as "an orth- i odox minister, and my right bower.'' Miss Shaw is the' most delightful speaker imaginable—witty, magnetic ana convincing. Only to listen to her won derful voice is a revelation as to the future of oratory. She sweet, full tunes roll out and till the building like the notes of "a great organ. The cadences seem to keep all that is befct in a woinan'd voice and lo add to that all that is goos in the tones called masculine. Wednesday evening, when Miss Shaw j was assigned a place to the German ! pessimistic philosopher, Schiller, from I whose arraignment of woman. President Jordan had quoted liberally.she inquired : "What sort of son to' what sort of ; mother could Schopenhauer be." A lady in the audience replied: "Scbo fenbaur never spoke to his mother for fifteen years, as President Jordan knows." Miss Shaw- exclaimed, in stantly: "What a happy time for tho mother!" A suffrage argument impossible to an swer was administered to the unsuspect- i ing audience in a most amusing account ! o' the labors of several spinsters of Massa chusetts to get a bill through the legisla- j ture of that state permitting the married women to own their own clothes. "We atruggled for three years," said Miss Bhaw, "and then came a great day when at laet the married women of Massachu setts dressed themselves in their own clothes instead of their husband's. Think of it!" Another amusing story told of the strug gle ten years' long for "a bill to bury widows.'' "It was accidentally discov ered," we are told, "that all the widows buried in the state had been buried il legally. A widow held a one third inter est in her husband's real estate during life only, and she could not be butied in His cemetery lot legally unless she was buried alive 1" The discussion is to the future of the household kitchen has been a hot one and an inetcresting feature of it was tne evident interest taken in the matter by Tyrant Man. Tyrant Man, by the way has been a con stant attendant at the meetings and he has stood for hours in the packed aisles listening to the sneakers as if his life de pended upon not missing a word. And when radical reforms such as tho abate ment of the sacred family wash-tub or the reconsideaition of the holy-pie crust have been advocated Tyrant Man has ap plauded with a gleam ol hope in his eye. £ Even the ndvanced opinion of I'hoebe Couzins, that men have already given con vincing proof of being divinely called to be the cooks of the world, was laughingly applauded by the men. while the sisters looked at each other doubtingly—that is the unemancipated ones, who came only to listen, and perhaps to scoff. It is true that one misguided, but courageous man, Lee Fairohfld by name, did mount a chair in the midst of the convention'and attempt to stem the tide of the popular disapproval of the work ■hop kitchen as a feature of the modern home. Ho asserted that it would degrade the dishwashing industry to the level of commerce to throw it out of the home, and that commerce in San Francisco is a failure. "I gaze in admiration, "said the gentle man, "at the vender of shoe strings on Jonder corner, who is. I am reliably in ormed, one of the live successful mer chants in this city." But Mr. Fairchild's defense of the time honored family mop and dishcloth earned nothing hut hisses, and he sat down in I esponse to a noisy reminder that "this - a ladies' meeting." s Charlotte Perkins Stetson's discussion of Art in Decoration was very much li keel, and her humorous description of what woman's hand lias accomplished in the way of decoration created laughter. ' "Decoration." said she. "means spe cifically that which belongs. We should not decorate construction, but construct decoration. But woman se>vs on. pins on, pastes on, nails on, ties on, to her bouse, her furniture, her clothes, what •he believes to be decoration, and that which does not belong." Miss Tessa Kelso's paper on The Place of th? Parent in Modern Eduction was well received. It was set forth that the students of* "pedagogical psychology" were teachers where they should be pa rents, anil schools for parents were de clared to be a pressing necessity.

GENERAL BARRETT EXPLAINS He Was Not Employed to Work for Mr. Dnffil General Barrett Ssys That He Urged the Pom one Man's Claim* Right Up to the Lait Moment There have been a number of unpleas ant rumors recently in regard to the ap pointment of A. W. Barratt to the adju tant-generalship by Governor Budd. One of these was to the effect that Major Bar rett had been paid by Captain Driffel of Pomona to present his claims to the gov ernor, but that the former had turned in and secured the appointment for himself. This was most indignantly denied by Mr. Barrett last night, who explained the situation of the case to a Herald represen tative. "I did not'go to Sacramento in the in- Captain DriHJl." he said, "but went to urge ihe appointment of Charles McFarland as code commissioner. The governor informed me that he had al ready selected his appointee for this po sition. •'Mr. Drill il and myself are personal fnends.and while he did not ask me to go to Sacramento, nor did 1 offer to go in his interest, I went to Governor Budd dur ing the session of the legislature and asked that Mr. Driffil be appointed adjutant - general. Tho governor took the matter under advisement. Two weeks ago last Sunday he asked me, to my surprise, when I would he ready to assdme the duties of the adjutant-generalship. I told him that X did not want the position and would not accept it as long as there was the slightest chance of it being given to Mr. Driffil." "What were Governor Budd's teasons for not appointing Mr. Driffil?" "Well, now, I think you are asking an impertinent question. The governor told me, but lam not at liberty to repeat them. I received my commission last Friday." "Then it is not true that you were paid by Mr. Driffel to work in his in terest." "No, sir, it is not." replied the adju tant general, strenuously. "I worked for his interests to the last, and the only rea son that I presented his name was oe cause f believed him to be an able man and one qualified to hold the position."

PADGHAM-CONANT Two Well Known Young People to Wed Today Eight years ago two of Los Angeles' moat popular young men associated themselves with Manager H. C. Wyatt at the Grand opera house in the capacity of treasurer and assistant treasurer. They were the Conant brothers, Frank and Will. In Minager Wyatl's various enter prises they were his most valuable assist ants and coworkers.. When fortune sin lied upon him the Con ant boys shared tho smiles, and when fortune frowned, they were there to assist ami advise and share the frowns. But gradually b l rank tired of life in Los Angeles: he Wished to see the world ami left to win laurel. in the managerial fields of the east, leaving Will at home, sad ami lone'v. without a com panion to enliven tbe intervals when the lions? was "dark" for a few nights. Among Will's married friends he found true friendship in the persons of Mr. and Mrs. Modini-Wood. and in a social way met one of Mr. Modini-Wood's most suc cessful and accomplished pupils. Miss Jessie Padgham of Pomona. I'lider Mr. Wood's careful tutelage Miss Padgham h;is developed a Wonderfully sweet and cultivated voice well known to the mns-c lovers of Los Angeles. During her visits to the city she met Mr. Conant on many occasions, the result of which is that to day at the home Of the bride's parents in THE SITUATION IN SAN FRANCISCO —San Francisco Post I'omona, Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Padgham, she wil. become Mrs. William Conant. The wedding will be a quiet one, only the relatives of the contracting parties being present, excepting Mr. and Mrs. Modini-Wood. After a short visit to friends in Santa Barbara and a trip up the coast for a couple of weeks the couple will return to Los Angeles. The friends of both young people feel assured that today will ushe- in a bright and happy future, lit by the footlights of prosperity ; that the orchestra of life will play nothing but harmonious strains; that all the acts will be happy ones; that the box office receipts will be large enough to place the treasurer on Easy street, the house always full of friends, and when the curtainjis rung down and the lights are turned out it will only bo the pro logue to a bright and happy home in that future land where there are no one-night stands, but one continuous performance of happiness, peace and rest. THE DOWNEY WILL No Further Developments In the Celebrated Case There weie no developments of moment yesterday in the matter of the will of the late Governor John G. Downey, which was exclusively published in The Herald of yesteiday. J. Downey Harvey was reported to have left for San Fancisco, and Senator White had nothing to say about the subjct, he not having any official cognizance of the contents of the testament. It is considered very odd that Receiver O'Connor of the Consolidated National Hank of San Diego, who found the will in t c bank's vault, should have opened the icument and given its contents out for publication, and then with great solem nity and formality have sealed it up in a new envelope and sent it here for pro bate. It is learned from reliable sources that in all probability tne document will not- be contested and the property will be distributed according to its provisions. PENTECOSTAL DAYS The Shevouth Festival Will Be Commenced This Evening This evening being the sixth of Sivan, according to the Jewish calendar, there will be begun the Shevuoth festival. The word "Shevuoth" means weeks. As long as Ihe Israelites lived in Tales tine and every one as the Bible says, was living "under the shade of his own vine and tig tree" Shevuoth was celebrated as a national holiday. They were com manded to count seven weeks from tho second day of the Passover to the sixth day of Sivan, on which day the male popula tion were commanded to appear in Jeru salem, there to adore Jehovah the one and spiritual God, and to thank him for all the innumerable blessings that he showr ers on the human race, and especially for the crops and fruits which tiled thei tields. Since Tsiael left Palestine the feast is celebrated in commemoration of the proc lamation of the ten commandments on Mt.

C.A. hall was crowdsd last night by a mass meeting of citizen fa in response to a call issued by the Minis terial union for such a gathering. President Harwood opened the proceedings by a short speech, in which he roused the enthusiasm of the audience and outlined the proposed cam paign against the liquor saloons that, he said, are the k.ne of civilization. The plan proposed was. in substance, that the antl-saloonists of every party combine in a sort of citizen:.-' league and endorse such of the candidates of each party as will pledge themselves strongest to tight for the abolition of every saloon in the city. After this feat should oe ac complished, the conquest oi" the county would be next made,and then tho crusade should spread us far as the Los Angeles influence could leach. The audience en dorsed it with applause. Several gentlemen, among them Will. 1). Gould, Rev. F. M. Price and Rev. Will A. Knighton, made telling speeches that were vigorously applauded by their auditors. In substance, the gentlemen deplored the united front of the liquor men and the disarray of the armies ol re form. But. as Mr. Gould philosophically put it: "There are three-fourths ot the people opposed to the traffic, and we could wipe it out by one election. The people's will rules this country, and if we do not combine we can blame only ourselves." The meeting was very enthusiastic and was energetically managed, and by its actions last night it means to make a big light against the dispensers of drinks. Committees will organize for the cam paign and a humming stir will shortly be felt as tho legislative and political committees begin operations* Coming by Sea SAN FRAKOISOO, May 27.—Passen gers on steamer Santa Rosa: For Los An geles- Ben T.
