■ The Working Womon’a society, of 27
of New _ xork ,,
CUnton . place, is one s
unique organizations of women. Though
bearing an uncomproumiitK title, its
membership is not limited to those who
come ordinarily under the head of work

and rich men’s wives or widows stand
on a footing of perfect eijuality. On the
list of its charter ntemlwrHaro the names
of Gabrielle Greeley, daughter of Hor¬
ace Groeloy; Mr*. Josephine Hhaw 1-ow
ell, Florence Kelley Wbchnewetsky, a
writer on socialistic subject*, and Miss
Arms ilunlingtou, daughter of Bishop
Hunttugton, of Syracuse.
But in spite of the somewhat incon¬
gruous mixture of its membership, the
society hoe does good work in the field
'AWlaAv 1 . **»«*>U*.ir by iwtterma ths
conditions of working women through
agitation, organisation and legislation.
Conditions in factories have been
ameliorated through the pannage of an
act of the legislature providing for
women factory inspectors. Many re¬
forms have I>een brought about in
the treatment of saleswomen and cash
girht through the society’s investigation
of their condition sud the effort to have
the factory inspection laws extended to
mercantile establishments.
The society’s moet unique effort, how¬
ever, is the c ue uj>on which it is at pres¬
ent concent rating its attentions ~a» at¬
tempt to persuade the state to provide
an UT. uity for old working women.
MAlice L. Woodbridge, the so¬
ciety’s secretary, is busy gatliering h -
tistics concerning the condition of mid¬
dle aged working women in New York
city and state, and the amount which is
expended by the state for the sup|iort of
women over forty-five in charitable ami
penal institutions.
“When these facts are all in shape to
clinch tho argument,” said Miss Vi io<i
bndgw the otlier day, "the Wotking
Women’s society will present for the
eoiiHiderati<ni of the legislature a bill
which will provide for setting spirt a
certain portion of the state revenues ns
a fund to secure annuities to women
who have reached thu age of forty-five.
I'eoplu have no idea of the immensity of
the sum expended each year in charity
to women who, through inability to find
work, have been obliged to ask admis¬
sion to charitable institutions. They
don’t realize the numbt ~ t women who
have ended in a hospital for the insane

age out of an income Insufficient to pro

Seventy-five per cent, of the women in
pnaona are there for crimes with which
poverty or ill health has hail much to
do. Ninety per cent, of the women it
imam- asylum* have been domestic serv
ants, and these as a class are about ths
thrifUeat of workers.
“The utter hopelessness of ths condt
tion which faces these women when
they have reached middle age sn<l are
otill dejiendent on their own resources
drives man: of them into crime or in
sanity, and in either case the state has
