Peoria, H., dispatch, 1: 10 the CIR
cult court today Judge Shaw decided an
interesting insurance case in the suit OF
Nancy j. Noel, Of Chicago, TO recover
$4,000 insurance money from the Modern
Woodmen of America for the death OF
her husband. Noel was at one time
sheriff of Peoria county and a prominent
politician. He joined the Woodmen but
afterwards vent INTO the saloon business.
The laws of the order forbid any saloon
keeper being a member SO he was ex-
PEELED. Soon afterward he died and his
widow sued the order for the insurance
money. The Judge found for the order.

at thu fall elections, Gnd liz was believed
that President Joseph Choate, che cul-
tured and brilliant leader OF the New
York bar, would throw his immense In
fluence on the suffrage side Of the bal
ance. But, alas and alackl shortly after
the opening OF the convention Mr..
Choate expressed himself az decidedly
against woman suffrage, and q suhatan.
tial majority Of the delegates followed
his lead, defeating the proposition. 20 far
rs a constitutional Amendments il con-
cerned, for another 30 years. In spite of
the fact that she is yet vigorous In mind
and spirit for one of her years, Susan B.
Anthony q hardly hope to live 10 see
another constitutional convention in the
state of New York.
One Of the most interesting on the
many bright and clever women to be
present at the Atlanta convention Is the
Rev. Anna Howard Shaw, ID. D., Of
Philadelphia. On. Shaw is almost exact
ly such woman In real life as was pre-
figured in fiction by George Eliot
when she portrayed Dinah, the woman
preacher, one Of the characters in
Adam Bede." Like Dinah, DR.. Shaw
gave up friends and the pleasures of this
world for the pulpit, and she has had a
very successful career i'm the clerical
profession. She is II woman of wide and
deep culture, for when she was gradu-
ated by the Boston university some
years ago she received diplomas not
only from the theological department,
but also from the departments OF law
and medicine rs well. Two years ago
this month she was a guest at the din
ner Of the pilgrim Mothers" in New
York and then and there replied TO n
OF the toasts in o manner that oaptivated
her cultivated fellow diners. She Is

alton and o fine specimen Of the best

OF course Mrs. Stanton, Mrs. Blake,

all vigor. Wyoming and Colorado should
not be less forward, but it is possible
that. having won the battle for them
selves, the women of those two states
may stay away.

hon of New York declared against even
submitting it to the people. What ia
worse, it is feared in some quarters that
the action in New York was more than
merely negative. It was of such q nature
q to perhaps delay all possibility ofsthe
~suffragists winning in the Empire State
for yet another term of years.
On the other hand, the record of the
year just past is not altogether disheart-
ening. The right to vote was generally
exercised for the first time at the last
election by the women of Colorado, and,
according to the reports, with as much
intelligence nc least as that displayed by
the men. In Illinois also the women
voted for the first time, though only for
n state officer, and as intelligently
as did their sisters OF full suffrage privi-
leges in Wyoming and Colorado, and
wherever they are entitled to a voice in
school matters women have turned ont
in force during the past year ut the polls.
Miss Anthony, Mrs Stanton, Mrs. Blake
and the remainder OF the oldguard, who
will meet at Atlanta this year, will
therefore be able to congratulate one an
other because some forward steps have
been taken.
1t is doubtful il even Miss Anthony
dreamed. when, as a young girl, she
stood mp, more than 40 years ago, on
the floor Of the New York State Teach
ers' association convention at Rochester
and demanded for the women of that
gathering the right to take part in it's
deliberations, that she would live TO see
women in possession Of equal citizen
ship anywhere. But there is no doubt
that when Wyoming conferred the suf-
frage ON women she looked for q rapid
spread of the same liberal policy
throughout the United States. The hope
~lessness of the case apparent in her
youth had then changed TO rose colored
prospects of success, though subsequent
events have not fully justified her an
ticipations, and the great majority of the
states are as they were twoscore years
ago-the menonly are citizens and WON
en- are not yet admitted TO voting priv.
leges.
1t has been Miss Anthony's chief
hope, during the last decade and o half,
that she might live to witness the con-
ferring of the suffrage upon the women
OF her own state, New York. In 1901
seemed to her and her coworkers that the
hour of their victory was nigh. for they
had the promise of a majority of the
votes in the assembly for the suffrage
measure then up. Bat the promises were
not fulfilled and after 1880 1t was not
until 1894 that Miss Anthony again be-
cam hopeful. 1t did seem to her, how
ever, during last spring and the early
part of the following summer that there
were grounds for believing the end to
be in sight, as for the first time in the
history Of the movement that conserva-
tive element, the society woman, took
mp the ause.

cases have been decided by Judge Jones
in favor Of the popullst treasurer,
Brake, and the popullst register OF
deeds, Harnberg, who we're shown to be
elected on the face OF the returns imme-
dIately after election. Had the precinct
vote OF Rlverview township been thrown
u altogether as demanded owing to
the fact that the ballots had been all
badly tempered with, the result would
have been changed, but the vote was al
lowed to stand as returned. The most
important point on which Judge Jones
ruled was the counting OF the ballot
where a X was placed in the circle at
the top, no erasure of any name
on the ticket below but a cross
placed before a name on another
ticket 10 this case Judge Jones
holds that a cross placed in the
circle at the top is equivalent to a cross
before every name on that ticket, and il
there is a cross before another name on
another ticket then the voter has voted
for two men and neither should be
counted. AS the mistakes OF this kind
were about equal all around, tie judge
held for the two men already declared
