Lizzie's eyes sparkled; her cheeks
were red. She flung her arms around
Frances's neck with a sudden cry of
rapture.
"Oh, Frances, you don't really mean

Lizzie laughed and tossed her golden

Recently one of the agents of the
bureau of ethnology discovered in q
mound of London County. Tenn, small
stone with letters of the Cherokee alpha
bet engraved upon 1t. The pulling
features Is that it was discovered at the
bottom with one of the nine skeletons
found there, and that the mound has not
been disturbed within the present century.
1t Is known by the citizens that sixty
years ago it was covered with trees and
grape vines and has not been disturbed
since then until explored by the bureau
agent, while, according to history.

Details come from France of the Afri-
can journey of Captain Trivier, the
French explorer. The gallant Captain
stayed for five days with Tippu lib, the
famous African chief. He says he found
Tippu to be the real master of Central
Africa, having far more power than the
Sultan of Zanzibar. Tippu declared that
he did not like the English. and that he
preferred theFrencn. This statement,
however, the New York Sun thinks may
have been mere politeness on his part, as
one of Tippu's characteristics is always
to be particularly charmed with the ma
tionality of the European who happens
to be in his company. Trivier says he
found that the districts he traversed were
superb in all natural features, and that
the natives were the only bad point. On
the east coast of Africa, the Captain be-
IeveS, the French have 40 chance of adj
vanciag their interests, rs the Germans
have firmly established themselves there
after n,mberless difficulties. The British.
he says, are losing ground. The Captain
has not made public anything as yet con-
corning the scientific work he has ac-
complishcd. His journey was intended
to solve several disputed points about the
geography of the Dark Continent

In summing up why the dele
gates were glad to meet at Atlanta
Miss Willard recolled the fact
that, Georgia was the first Ameri-
can colony to have prohibitory
law. In 1888 the colony, not then
two years old, was put under pro-
hihition which remained IN force
nine years.
Georgia is the banner prohibi-
tion state of the South having local
prohibition in 100 OF its 1871 coun-
ties. a friend who has travelled
there says there is no disputlng
that their kind Of prohibition pro-
hibits.

CIRCULAR LETTER.
TO TIE LOVERS OF FREEDOM

IN SOUTH DAKOTA, GREETING:
Srlfragists arouse!!! Let
us consecrate ourselves fully to a
pure devotion Of our holy cause Of
human justice, and press tearlessly
on, we'll knowing that right must
prevail.
To the noble men who voted and
the earnest women who worked for
the entranchisement Of woman in
onr lare campaign we thank you
heartily, and earnestly ask for con-
tinued support untsl the end is
reached, ftr we have only begun
this warfare, and we will never halt
till the prize is Won. Filled with this
high resolve we can take fresh courage
in knowing that we have been made
better men and women for the work
already done-having greater self re-
suect and il clearer prehensiou OF
love to God and justice to man.
Our campaign was upon US this
wear before club was formed or
dollar pledged, and the Equal Suffrage
amendment was submitted at a time
when there were three political parties
in the field, two other amendments tf
be voted upon, and also the location Of
cur capital. All this had tendency
to distract the public mind from ou]
campaign. Then the wording OF thu
Suffrage amendment was obscure, an(
confused the voters, consequent.
many voted against it who desired tt
vote for 1t. We have been credloi.

informed that in some instances tick
cts were used where simply the woro
"No' appeared after the amendment
Others read, "For Woman Suffrage
Mo- Against Woman Suffrage
'Yes,'" Tickets thus printed are not
IN accordance with law, and we ask
the friends in the state everywhere
to report to us all such cases coming
under their notice. The EqualSuffrage
Association of South Dakota has been
re-organized with the officers whose
names appear on the heading Of this
letter. A few changes have been made
in ora plan of work for the future:
LIT Every locol club paying annu-
ally the sum OF twenty-five cents per
member to the state equal Suffrage
Association 'uay become auxiliary
thereto.
AS soon as clubs are reported to us,
we will send free a series of lessons on
Civil Government, now already pre-
pSASA AOA olAty oloo OA4C ooky VI CAS
International Council of Women.
Write to Mrs Elizabeth Hammer
Highmore, for selections for suffrage
contests.
End. Any person signing our con-
stitutlon and paying $40 into our state
treasury may become life member of
the Equal Suffrage ASSOCIATION Of
South Dakota,
We earnestly hope that all clubs
formed wjllretain their organizations,
and that the friends Of Equal Suffrage
will organize other clubs and report
the same to usin Huron. The work of
organizing cannot be pushed too Wig
orously, and NOW is the time to do it,.
FRIEND, WHAT WILL YOU DO?
Will not each one do something to
start or rhelpaiong the club already or
ganized in your town or vicinity? !?
Then when the cali, ITO ARMS" is
again sounded, we will be found in
line thoroughly equipped for the fray.
Yours with love OF liberty,
