and ea Aasemblage of About Four
Hundred Ladles Present
About 400 bright-faced, intelligent la
dles gathered in eager assembly at the
morning session of tbe Woman's Parlia
ment of Southern California yesterday.
Several men with a ministerial 'cast of
countenance were also present, but being
in so small a minority tbey did not give
undue solemnity to the cheerful occasion.
Business was transacted Somewhat iner
tly, but witb conscientious regard for all
parliamentary rules.
Tbe otlicers of the parliament are:
Mra. Elmira T. Stephens, president, Los
Anegles; Mrs. Mary M. Gibson, general
secretary, Los Angeles; Mrs. M. F, Wills,
treasurer, Los Angeles.

bara.
Tbe opening remarks by the talented
president, Mrs. Elraira T. Stephens,
were earnest and cordial, and a spirit of
harmony and good cheer prevailed at
• nC •• , .v
A symposium on dress was tne
Drat attraction on the programme.
Kilty delegates from various paits
Of the state having presented tbeir
credentials leaned back in dignified ease
?,od. serene in the consciousness of look-
Dg unusually well in fiesh and fash
ionable fall bonnets, listened amiably to
a discussion of various costumes for dif
ferent types of nineteenth century femi
ninity. Three women, each illustrating
in ncr own toilette the practical wearing
of tbe garments advocated, entertained
tba andience witb fifteen-minute papers.
ARTISTIC DRESS.
The first was by Miss Minerva V. Jos
lin of Orange. Her subject was Artistic
Drees,and it was bandied most eracfefully
and eloquently. Sbe began by saying that
dress becomes an art from the moment
iteeases to be merely a covering and pro
tection from tbe weather.
In every nation and clime is found the
Insatiate mania for adornment.
Sbe quoted Ruskin.'s sentiments regard
ing true nobleness in dress and its imp
ortance as a means of education. She
mentioned tbe fact that the best dress
ing Is never the costliest. In early days
fantastic dress was studied. She spoke
specially of tbe garb of the Venetians
and its seeming to clotbe the wearers
With modesty and honor. In our bighest
thought we cling to a certain macnifi
cence. which in daily life we must dis
regard.
The great principle in the art of dress
ia harmony. Many women dress as if
tbe face were the only consideration. Wo
see the face once, when we see tbe whole
figure many times. Women dress too
much as if they were half length por
traits. One full length mirror is an al
most necessary part of tne furniture of ev
ery dressing room. It is the only safe
guard against absurd mistakes in cos
tumes. The whole presence is more im
portant than anything else in appear
ance.
Tbe color-scheme being a whole sub
ject by itself tbe author of tbis admirable
paper on artistic dress did not more than
briefly touch upon it. The wise woman,
abe said,will be careful in her dress when
passing from immaturity to maturity, ln
eotor, in style, in the exposure of tbe
njtS. MARY S. GIBSON. Secretary
I fcroat ahe wiil use due caution, realizing
tnat Hair, complexion and form have un
dergone inevitable changes.
MATERNITY DRESB.
Th* paper on Maternity Dress, by Dr,
Kate Sbepherdson Black: of Pasadena,
waa a most delicate, sensible and helpful
aotoosltion of tbe theme. She held that
My method of dressing not bygienically
suitable for maternity ia not hygienical-
Ijr suitable tor any condition of life.
Woman* greatest feat is or lias been
that men will ceasa to love ber. The
man wbo loves ber wardrobe more than
the woman, will—and best be woman
Vvhen *b* is able to discriminate this
da** of man from tbe true man before
, 4tt*oming bis partner for life. Fancy a
gMta ordering his wardrobe uf a special
atari* or cnt with a view to retaining his
I wff*'* affection or fearing be may other
wise lo** it! The new woman is not tha
\ j**rf pictured by Bishops Doane
ifotd Cox*. Sbe is not a poor cony of a
kaitk man portrayed by Mi*. Booth. 6b*
is simply a new and better condition o'
tbe old woman.
Neither divided skirts, bis sleeves, big
waists, bloomers nor trousers and jacket
worn for a wise and judicious purpose, it
accompanied by modest demeanor, make
mannisb women. The new woman seeks
to so clothe herself tbat she may be
physically fitted fjr the duties and respon
sibilities of maternity, should it come
into the line of her life's opportunities.
BICYCLE COSTUMES.
The third paper was on the Bicycle
Costume, by Dr. Rose Talbot Bullard of
Los Angeles. The topic was most charm -
ingsy treated, and frequent applause met
the writer, who was not confined at all
to her notes but spoke easily and clearly
in reply to many questions asked.
She said that one of the most difficult
problems for the bygienist and physician
to settle was that of healthful, conven
ient and enjoyable out-door exercise for
women. She discussed the respective
merits of horseback and bicycle riding.
Walking has not been as popular as it
might have been but for tbe clinging
skirt. Should tbe bicycle be discarded
the improvement in skirts induced by
its use will have made walking more
general. But tbe prospect is that the
bicyole will remain. She referred to tbe
development ol tbe muscles of the whole
body, woich is allowed by the proper
bicycle costume in riding. Everyone
concedes that it is a woman's duty to
look her best on all occasions. She may
do so on the wheel and yet dress suitably
and modestly. The ad vantages of the
bloomer, short skirt and divided skirt
were all named, both in respect to a wo
man's appearance on and off the wheel.
We are not yet ready to adopt tha
bloomer. It must be mcdided to be ac
cepted. The best coatume yet found
for bicycle use is tbe divided skirt. One
consideration dwrlt upon al some length
by Dr. Bullard was evidently appreciated
by the thinking women who listened,
and tbat was the presence bere of the
consumptive and the sputa on tbe street
which is picked up by the long dresses and
which when dried, in tbe brushing and
cleaning of the skirt afford a most certain
means of carrying contagion.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
The afternoon session wss devoted to
two thirty minute papers, followea by
animated general discussions. The lirst
paper related .o the subject. Formation
vs. Reformation, and was treated wisely
and suggestively by Mrs. Flora M. Kim
ball of National City. The cburcb was
packed almost to overflowing, and the
large audience paid the closest attention
to Mrs. Kimball's well written essay.
She admitted that reformatory measures
frequently fall short of the promise of
fulfillment. With moral as well as phy
sical ailments, well-known remedies
sometimes fail and tbe patient dies.
To redeem humanity from its moral
unhealthiness hy forming instead of ic
forming the morals and modes of thought
and living, it is hoped will re the mis
sion of tbe future pnilantbropist. To
day tba ancestry of the future is witb us;
by forming its babits and tendencies
aright future philanthropists will have
little reformatory work to do. It is an
appalling thought tbat tbe criminals of
tbe comine years are in loving mother's
arms, at our firesides, in our schools.
In this so-called age of progress tbe
stody of the psychology of childhood is
in the bands of educators, and should be
m the hands of the first educators --
mothers. The torturing of a Hy is the
first baby step toward greater crimes.
Mrs. Kimball dwelt upon the importance
of humane education and especially as re
garded tbe killing of bird*, unkindncss
to dumb animals and tbe practice of
vivisection. Some of our boys are cruel
enough without the couiss of training
wbicb is apt to encourage cruelty. The
education of the heart does not keep
pace with that of tbe head.
The speakers wbo discussed Mrs. Kim
ball's paper were Mrs. Bowman, Mrs.
Lucy Blanchard, Dr. Raid of Pasadena;
and Mrs. J. W. Campbell. Mrs. Barlgat,
Mrs. Anna S. Averell, Mrs. McComas
and Mies Fetti, all of Los Angeles.
MRS. CHAPIN'S PAPER.
Tbe second paper on tbe afternoon
programme was by Mrs. i,on V. Chapin
niSS fl. F. WILLS, Treasurer
of Pasadena, the subject being, What
Shall Busy People Read? The lady spoite,
however, without notes, and commanded
tbe admiring attention of the listening
throng by ber musical voice as well as by
her vivacity and earnestness.
She spoke of the large class of readers
who have mental dyapepsia. They finish
Shakespeare and Dante in one winter.
They take courses of reading arranged by
preachers and professors. They read too
many boons to assimilate the best
thought of any. Some people are born
busy; Borne achieve business and some
have business thrust upon them.
Busy peop'e, especially, need good in
tellectual food. They need truth incul
cated as thought material. They need
tbe classics. It is the fashion nowadays
to decry the newspaper for busy readers.
It is more evanescent tnan the magazine,
but its impressions are permanent.
Politics form history. Through tbe
newspaper the mantle of prophecy has
fallen.
Speaking of the pulpit and The Sunday
papers, she said there were persons who
stayed at home from churcb just to read
them.
At tbe close of ber paper Mrs. Cnapin
was recalled to the platform to answer a
question. Wby did she omit to mention
the Bible among the many books named
by ber as turnishing necessary material
for mental growth? She respondei by
paying high tribute to tbe Bible as a
great literary as well as spiritual inspira
tion for humanity's students.
Mrs. Averlil followed with pleasing
remarks, and Miss Merritt of Los Ange
les next addressed the parliament, say
ing it was possible for the busiest woman
to bave a well-chosen book near tbe
basket of stookings to mend. Uplifting
thought may attend tbe greatest drudg
ery. Other ladies wbo followed in the
brilliant discussion uf books of all
olasses were Mrs. Galpin and Mrs. Mayn
ard of Los Angeles and Mrs. Spalding
and Mrs, Chapin of Pasadena.
EVENING SESSION.
Prayer was offered by Mrs. J. VV.Camp
bell at the opening of the evening exer
cises. The president of the parliament,
Mrs. Elmira T. Stephens of Los Angeles,
then introduced Mrs. Georgia A. Mutfield
of San Diego, who read an interesting
paper on Educational Fads. She began
by saying ibat we have lived through a
succession of educational fads—and his
tory will go on repeating itself. The
march of thought is marked by aban
doned hypothesis, exploded tbeories and
empty conjectures.
Eacb of the educational movements of
tbe past baa left a legacy to the present.
Intellectual fads become epidemic, run
tb jir course and are followed by others.
In California, during the fiscal year
LOS AjNXtEIiES HEBALD: WETOTESDAY MOR!NTNGr, OCTOBER 9, 1895.
ending June 30, 1834, there were 2W.875
pupils enrolled in the primary and gram
mar schools and 7412 in the high schools.
The statistics show that each high
school pupil cots the stat; within a few
cents of twice the sum a primary or
grammar grade pupil costs.
The state has a right to expect a rea
sonable return for every dollar invested
in educating her children. In your city
(Los Angeles), as well as my own (San
Diego), ihe public funds will only per
mit the little children to have one year
of kindergarten training.
If we lorm our children we shall be
saved the expensse and the deep sorrow
of reforming them.
Our education, as it is cariied on to
day, unfits rather than fits our children
for honest citizenship.
At tbe close of her paper Mis. Mattiehl
was enthusiastically applauded.
There were many men present at the
evening session. Among others were
Professor fierce and Mr. Gosper, who,
being called upon, made a few remarks
on education. Mrs. Ella P. Hubbard also
discussed Mrs. Matrield's paper very in
teliigsntly.
MILA TUPPER MAYNARD.
The second address of the evening was
entitled The Wider Selfhood, by Rev.
Mila Topper Maynard. A really beauti
lul woman with a clear melodious voice
and graceful manner and delivery, Mrs.
Maynard was one of the most effective
speakers of the parliament, wnicb has
thus far been marked by its brilliant es
says and essayists. She seemed to feel
the inspiration of the hour and of her
tbeme. iShe was not dependent upnn
any written words, hut spoke witb great
fluency and ease. Unselfishness was hue
deep undercurrent -if her thought, She
was frequently applauded after her well
chosen anecdotes and her fine flights of
true oratory.
The sessions of tbe parliament will
continue throughout the forenoon and
afternoon today. At the morning meet
ing, which opens at 10 o'clock, there will
be a symposium on Woman Suffrage.
The papeis, limited to ten minutes, will

WASHINGTON". Oct. 8.-General Ma
hone died at 1 o'clock tbis afternoon.
The end came peacefully, almost imper
ceptibly. The funeral will be held at
Petersburgh, Va.
WASHINGTON, Oct. B.—The country
will long remember Gen. William Mahone
as one of the most picturesque figures
and characters in public life during tbo
last thirty years. Exceptionally slight
in frame and stature, he has been a
marked man in great assemblages. His
peculiar style of dress, and especially his
hat, attracted attention to bim. Tbis
broad-brimmed, soft, felt headgear
seemed out of proportion to the tiny form
beneath it. But beneath this shade
sparkled a pair of the keenest eyes ever
possessed by man. General Mubone
married an epoch in tbe history of the
United States since the war. He has been
during tbe last quarter of a oentury tbs
central figure in Virginia politics, and at
one time his slight figure was the nucleus
of one of tbe most violent political
storms that ever waged in congiess.
He was in his sixty-ninth year. His fa
vorite soubriquet was "hero of Crater,"
won by his wonderful courage in the at
tack on Petersburg when the federal
forces sprang a mine beneath the con
federate defense. He fought like a tiger
aud later historians give bim almost
alone the credit of keeping Petersburg
from the union bands by repairing be
fore sunset the shattered confederate
lines. He had joined the confederate
army at once after the secession, partici
pating in the capture of theNorfork navy
yard in 1861 and raised and commanded
the Sixth regiment of Virginia. He was
commissioned as a brigadier-general in
March, 1804, and six months alter a
major-general. At the close of tbe war
lie returned to his ungual work of engi
neering and became president of the
Norfolk and Tennessee railroad.
A spirit of te.-.dership led him into the
political arena, ana he at once assumed
a foremost position in tbe internal affairs
of Virginia, which was at that time laden
with an enormous debt that soon became
the issue of vital importance between
tbe political parties. He was elected to
tha United States senate in 1870. He was
like a firebrand cast into a mass of dry
tinder. From the peculiar attitude tbat
he at once assumed, he caused one of tbe
most bitter controversies nnd stubborn
deadlocks ever known in tbe history of
that body. Mahone at last acted with the
Republicans and gave them tbe organi
zation of tne senate. His course brought
down upon his head the wrath of the
Democrats, but the Republicans received
him with open arms and the federal
patronage in Virginia was turned over to
bim. Since that time he has been par
excellence tbe Republican leader in Vir
ginia. He served in the senate until 1887
when he was defeated. Although he bas
since resided almost constantly in this
city, he retained tbe Republican leader
ship in Virginia, and in 1890 was a can
dictate for governor. He was best known
here of late years by his efforts to secure
the purchase by the government for a
printing office site of a square of ground
owned by bim. Tbe quaint figure of its
owner was always seen in the lobbies of
both house and senate at the close of
every session, and he was considered a
great power in the third house. t

cial from Fargo, N. D., says:
The suit;of Mrs. Clint Nickels of Kan
sas City against Mrs. Maud Graham for
$50,000 for alienating the affections of her
husband, was concluded this afternoon
in the United States district court of tbis

DON'T LIKE DRY DAYS
Serious Rioting Results From Early Closing
of Westphalia Beer Gardens
MTJNSTER, Westphalia, Oct. B.—There
has been a growing agitation bere for
some time past against the order issued
to close beer gardens and other similar
places for obtaining refreshments at a
much earlier hour than customary. The
result is that a number of serious con*
•lifts have taken place between tbe police
and the inhabitants in the streets of this
city.
Matters roached a crisis yesterday
evening when the gen d'armes and police
charged a mob of townspeople with drawn
swords, wounding many of tbe latter.
There is a very bitter feeling against the
authorities and it is feared tbere will bl
more trouble before long.
