tightly toward the termination Of the
yawn, the cars are raised slightly and the
nostrils dilated. The crack sometimes

that has never been ploughed by the suf-
frase-reform blade and quote from the
records Of the states that have granted
suffrage to women to show that contrary
to the claims Of their opponents the women
are taking advantage of the privilege very
widely, and that at elections where 10th
sexes have voted the female vote has
ranged from 40 to 30 per cent of the total.
The most interesting reference Is to the
New Zealand elections, where 100. 461
women were registered and over $1,000
voted. This proportion is far greater than
the average among men in any eastern

When the historian of American progress
In the Nineteenth Century comes to con-
slider the materials for his work he will be
wide of the mark If he does not carefully
read the record OF the woman suffrage
movement. which has probably made more
advance than any other reform that has
been instituted In this country in the past
hundred years. with the single exception CT
the emancipation Of the slaves. Whether 1T
IL practical or impractical. the foes of the
idea must admit that it's agltators have
made great advances, not only in their
actual achievements, but in winning over
TO more moderate sentiment those who
formerly scoffed at the thought of women
voters. 1t now appears as though the close
OF the century will be marked by one OF the
most nlomentouS struggles on the part OF
the suffragists, for next week begin the
sessions of the New Ncrk constitutional
conventions. which the leaders of the suf-
frage movement have recently made their
CHIEF target Albany viii be the field Of the
most important battle yet waged in this
campaign. 1t is large game for which the
women are cunning. but they now realize
that there was never a truer saving than

the candle, for the time is ripe for a lest

enemies whom the women are to meet

building on an expensive site and the ex-
penditure OF q large sum Of money for the

according to their views-oppose its passage.
But when II Is remembered that about the

Accidents to postal cars constitute a

rather strange that at this time. when oil

Lest when he'd bought the fateful sheet.
He'd learn OF yet one more defeat.
With trembling hands and feverish zest
He found a tuppence to invest,
And with emotion. putty pale.
Purchased the Geographic tale.

Connecticut is very much worried over the
fact that its once-famous shad-fsheries are
now no more, and that those people who
desire to feed upon this popular and pal
atabIe product of the waters must content
themselves with the shad captured else
where than In the Connecticut or Thames
rivers. While it Is. Of course too bad that
factories and dams should have brought
about the determination OF Connecticut
shad, there is no reason why the grief
should be more than local to Connecticut.
From its source ia the mountains to its
mouth In the Chesapeake the Potomac
flows unvexed. and 10 the home of shad
more delicious than any ever known to Con-
nectieut. The supply il ample and the quail
ity unexceptionable during this season, and
Connecticut can have all the good shad 1t
needs by making arrangements with some
Of the Potomac fishermen or Washington
dealers. The fish may be q trifie more ex-
pensive than the Connecticut article used
to be, but the difference In flavor more than
counterbalances the difference in price.
There IL but one variety OF shad that will
repay the labor and expense Of cooking,
and that variety comes from the Potomac.

That the law Is no respecter of persons,
that 1t draws no distinctive line between
classes, that 1t is equal IN its application,
was evidenced the other afternoon when the
statute which provides that no organized
body Of men shall march into the Capitol
grounds was enforced against a section of
the Odd Fellows parade that without the
slightest thought Of trespass endeavored to
make short cut through the reservation
to its abiding place in southeast Washing
ton. The men In line were all good sub
stantial citizens and their parading in COM
pany could not even by the widest imagi-
nation be construed into q threat against
anybody or anything: they did not desire to
bulldoze Congress, and probably did not
care the toss of q copper whether Congress
was in session or -not--they merely wanted
to get home by the most direct route. But
the Capitol police would not have it so:
they notified the marshal that he and his
associates were violating law, and the I'M
conscious offenders Immediately moved out
irto the street. Those men were and are
possessed of just as many constitutional
rights as Mr.. Coxey and his followers ever
had or probably ever will have. but as good
citizens they recognized the propriety Of the
statute that barred their way through the
Capitol grounds and they very cheerfully
moved to the highway over which they had
permission to parade. Had they done other
wise. had they defied the Capitol police and
insisted on continuing their march through
the grounds. they would have unquestiona-
bly, been arrested and punished as the law
directs. The lesson Of this little incident
should not be altogether lost by Coxey and
Browne and their many fellow-agitators.
The law must and will be respected.
