In sympathy with the young men who ara just

and not discourage them Ia their efforts to

In his discourse at Hamline Church yester-

Kelly's subject at rhe Fourth Presbyterian
Church.
Rev. j. E. Fout, of the United Brethren Me-
mortal Church. preached in the morning on
the "Perils and rescue OF young men" In
his opinion there were perils surrounding
young men on every hand. such as saloons,
gambling houses. and the temptation to read
Sunday newspapers.
In the evening Rev. E. B. Bagby, chaplain
of the House OF Representatives and pastor of
the Ninth Street Christian Church, preached
an interesting discourse on 'The Safe.y Of

excuse the sins OF young men. said he. that
We should laugh at their transgressions, is q

CLARKS0N AND THE WOMEN.
frage in Colorado and Comes Home
Enthusiastic for It.


DEs MoNEs, Iowa, Nov. III. S. Clarkson
was in Colorado in September and studied
the activity of women in the campaign then.
He was in Denver Tuesday and studied them
at the polls. Now he says:
''rhe highest-minded man. however ieal-
Gus or sheltering he may be of his wife.
mother. or daughter as against any rude
touch OF the world, could not have found any
objection TO what occurred at the polls in
Colorado. The women cast large majority
OF the votes in Denver, and the presence of a
single good woman at polling place made
the men there as quiet and respectable as at a
theater or church. and. regardless of her rank
or station, the American woman is as much OF
q queen at the polls as IN the drawing-room.
and as much Difference is paid her.
The women went early TO the polls and
many families went together The women
gave enthusiasm 10 the work and 80 per cent.
Of the women voted. They were not led away
and deceived as many feared they would be
by the sophIstries of communism rampant
there
1T must be remembered by the skeptics of
the East. who may attempt TO dismiss all this
as the action OF women on the frontier, that
most OF the people OF Colorado and the women
there are as refined and we'll educated as in
any Eastern State.
"The good women have voted in much
larger proportion than the bad. The women
were not only well informed on all the cues
tions Of the day, but they furnished some of
the ablest speakers.
''Indeed this election in Colorado has left
very little OF good argument for the sincere
opponents of woman suffrage. l believe that
woman suffrage is inevitable in every Ameri-
can Stale and that as it comes it will bring
good TO every State and to every CITY, es-
pecially. and to the nation. The problem of

DOES ELECTRICITY KILL?
This Question to Be Officially Tested at
the Next Electrocution Held in

New York State
ALBANY, n. Y, Nov. 11.-Gov. Flower is
willing to allow experts to make a test TO
ascertain whether a man killed in the eIectri-
cal chair can be resuscitated. To the Asso-
ciated Press representative tonight he made
this statement. when his attention was called
to the printed allegations that certain ply
sicians would ask for such permission:
Il am perfectly willing to allow theexperi-
ment to lie made if IL is in my power under
the law. L think it would be a good thing to
have this long-standing controversy settled at
once and forever
Ever since the adoption of the electrical ex-
ecution act by the State, the Westinghouse peo-
pie. whose dynamos are in use, are certain that
electricity was not the cause of death but
thai death was assured by the holding of an
autopsy directly after the body had been
taken from the electrical chair. No less an
authority than Nicola Tesla, the famous cleo
trician, contended that he could bring back
TO life a man killed in an electrical chair. pro-
vided the attempt was made Immediately
after execution.
Mr George Westinghouse has always as
serted that the electrical death was sham
and that New York commission, headed by
Elbridge T. Gerry, had added the autopsy
clause TO the laS 80 as TO make it certain that
the man was dead.
Within the last few weeks the agitation of
the subject has again become prominent. and
an appeal is TO be made to the Governor to
allow the next man committed 10 death as Il
subject TO be experimental on. The Governor
says he will grant permission 10 90 this.
The attempt. if made, will undoubtedly
create great excitement and intense interest
in the scientific world. II will also arouse
curiosity among the laymen, because If sue
cessiul 1t will bring 10 life a new man, VINO
cannot be executed, having once su.ered the
penalty OF death.
1t will also prove that the State execu-
tioneers have been the surgeons who have
held the autopsy rather than the State eiec-

"The report that such a convention

has considered the advisability oil

have been made, however, and the
time has not been set. II is not even
