REFUSED THEM VOTES.

Ladies' Who Could Not Vote, Despite the
Fact They Were Intelligent, Law
Abiding Citizens.
A number of ladies offered their votes
at a recent election in Fredonia, N. T.,
but the inspectors refused to receive
them. The Fredonia Censor says;
"When the fourteen ladies came to
offer their ballots at the polls of Dis
trict No. /, there stood by the rail an
old town drunkard and pauper. He
was pretty drunk then, and the express
sion on his face, as he watched the in
effectual efforts of the ladies to have
their votes taken, would have been
amusing if the import of it had not be-
tokened such rank injustice The
ladies were among our best-intelli.

besotted pauper had more direct voice

county and State taxes for years; are
taxed to support that very old drunk
ards family every winter, but they
can not even vote for the choice of the
poormaster who disburses their
money, nor for officers to prohibit the
sale of the liquor which consumes
most of his earnings. He was evident
ly conscious of his great superiority
even as he steadied himself against the
rail in front of the inspectors. and as
the ladies turned sadly away, and he
looked after them with y drunken
grin, we thought that the photograph
of that scene, posted in any polling
place, would convey more conviction
of the injustice of our present suffrage
laws than volumes of printed or hours
of oral argument.

alt was just those great educational
resorts for diverting the pure, clear
stream of womanhood from its God
created channels which we had in
mind. We may, indeed, be provincial,
for we love woman too well to wish to
make a man of her"
The editor of the Conrier-Journdt
has shifted his ground. In his former
editorial, he claimed that to educate
woman was generally to make her
person of infidel opinions and prof
ligate life. Now he intimates that to
educate her is ''tomake man OF her :
Does this imply that manliness is
synonymous with ''infidelity and dirtP"
Every woman who has husband. or u
father, or brother, or boy cousin,
will be indignant at such an unfair as
persion on the masculine sex.
Opponents of equal rights for women
are fond of declaring with Tennyson
that
"Woman is not undeveloped man,
But diverse
yet they always assume that if women
are left free to develop in their own
way, as men are, they will straight
way develop into men-and a rather
poor kind of man at that. The con-
trary view is well stated by Josiah
Aliens wife," in u passage which was
written about voting, but which APP
plies equally well to education:
1T is jest as ridiculous to say it
would make q woman act coarse and
rampage round, to vote, as to say that
kissin' n pretty baby makes a man q
hen-huzzy. You may want a
green shade onto the front side of your
house, and to that end and effect you
may plant a acorn, and set out rose
bush; but all the Legislators in creation
can't make that acorn-tree blow out
with red posies, no more can they
make that rose-bush stand up straight
as a giant. And their bein' planted
by the side of each other, on the same
ground and watered out of the same
waterin' jug, don't alter their material
turn. They wiU both help shade The
Uinder, but do it in their own way.
which is different. And men and
wimmen votin' side by side would no
more alter their natural dispositions
than singin' one of Watts hymns to-
gether would. One will sing bass and
the other air, SO long as the world
stands. - Wondn'S Journal

A GREAT CURIOSITY.
Bones of the Great AUX Received at the
Smithsonian Institution.
Several boxes and barrels of bones
of the great aux. bird that is now
believed to be extinct, have been re-
ceived at the Smithsonian Institution
from the Banks of Newfoundland. The
great aux was notable in size. AS it
stood or sat erect it was over two feet
high. 1t had a strong bill or beak,
something in the shape of the razor
bill. One of its peculiarities, and the
one to which it is indebted for its final
extinction, was the redlulously small
wings. These wings were useless for
purposes of flight, but were used for
swimming purposes. The great aux was
powerful swimmer. With its web
feet in motion in the rearlike propel-
ler, and its wings beating rapidly, it
would literally fly through the water
making such speed that powerful oars
men in boat could not overtake it.
But ashore it was clumsy and stupid
creature.
Before Europeans sought the Amer
lean coast the savages, it is believed,
hunted the helpless birds until they
were driven to the rocks and ISL
ands far out at sea, inaccessible to
the Indians, with their primitive
means of navigation. But toward the
end of the fifteenth century the bold
sailors of northern Europe began max
ing expeditions into the waters where
the great auks kept their vigils on the
rocks, and the war of determination be-
gan. Early writer's describe these birds
as found in great number. On shore they
fell easy prey to the mariners. Some
times II plank was laid from the ship
to the rocky island, or "a sail was spread
out like bridge, and over this the
birds were driven aboard like so many
geese. Or they were driven into a pen
and slaughtered with sticks. In such
numbers were they found that ships
sent to the fishing banks were only
scantily supplied with provisions, the
dependence for supplies being upon
the great auks which nature had pro-
viaed in such abundance.
The last authentic record OF the
great auks having been seen alive was
in 1874, when two were captured in
Iceland. In 1852; one is said to have
been seen alive on the Newfoundland
banks, and, in 1858, dead one-per-
haps the last of his race-was report
ed as found in Trinity bay; but
Symington Groves thinks all reported
observations since 1914 are mis-
takes. So many years have elapsed
since it is positively known one
was seen alive, that all hope
has died that any have escaped
the great destruction. As it frequent
ed isolated situations, for the sake of
security, little is known of its habits.
1t laid but one egg, and this was de-
posted on the bare rock. Thus,
scanty provision was made by nature,
to repay the losses caused by the
wholesale destruction of the harmless
and helpless birds. The great aux
waddled from its rocky nest in un-
calmly fashion to the brink, sometimes
tumbling into the water from quite a
height, but, once in the water, it was
as graceful as a yacht, propelling it.
self rapidly. 1t fed upon small fish,
which it caught with great dexterity.
