| The entire effort of many men VINO were
the lawmakers of Colorado was to make
| of this bill measure of offense rather
| than defense The republican platform
| demanded that the age Of consent be
changed. but in spite of this TACT
| amounting to a pledge, Mrs. Holly was
obliged to fight her battle in the face
OF bitter opposition, proving herself no

| Pueblo, Colorados second city, where
| she has lived for many years. She in
terested herself in the suffrage move
ment, and when elected as representa-
tive proved equal to her difficult duties.
Mrs. Klock of Arapahoe county, intro

which would provide an industrial home
for incorrigible girls She worked un-
tiringly for the success OF this meas
ure, and the home was established, but
no appropriation followed, and at the
close of the legislature Mrs. Klock re-
solved herself into a committe on ways
and means. The result was that money
was raised to furnish and open such a
home. To-day this refuge has thirty
six inmates and is in the hands of a
committee who will not tire in the good
work.
Such are sone of the results OF "leg-
islatresses. During the session these
women were always to be found in their
places, prompt and ready, but not ag-
gressive. They appreciated the fact
that it cost Colorado something like
So a minute while the house was in ses-
sion, and it is not on the records that
the sergeant-at-arms was obliged to
send to hotel lobby or clubroom to
bring them into, the house to cast their
vote.
These first women lawmakers did not
fly into any frenzy, or mistake abuse
for argument, sharpen ing their
tongues with bitterness and venom"
This was left for the men Of that as
sembly, and on January 16, when both
houses met in joint session to ballot up
on United States senator, an unprece-
denied scene was witnessed. Resolu-
tons had been presented that body by
the w. c. T u. and the Equal Suffrage
ASSOCldtlOu WHICH gave OueuSe " tue
male members, and they arose in their
manly dignity, saying that said resolu-
tions were IAN insult to republicans"
Just why it should be an insult to re-
publicanism for women to ask to be
represented by moral and upright men
did not transpire.
A white-haired statesman. who has
helped to make Colorado laws since the
territorial days, mistaking abuse for
argument, in seconding the nomina-
ton of E. O. Wolcott turned his speech
into TRADE of abuse of women. He
spoke of the "hatchet-faced individuals
who presented the resolutions, and
warned women if they ever attempted
anything of the kind again they would
receive such a reprimand as they would
remember This cowardly assault on
women was applauded to the echo.
great-minded senator from Pueblo was
of the opinion that the white-haired
veteran should receive vote OF thanks
for his courage in rebuking the women.

The most crowded spot on the earth's
surface is that portion of the city Of
Valletta. island of Malta, known as the
"Manderaggio." In the whole of Val
letta the proportion is $4,000 human
beings to the square mile, but in the
Manderaggio there is one locality in
which there are 1874 persons living on
a plot of ground less than two acres
and half in extent. This would give
no less than $4,000 persons to the

John Saw the Point.9

He had pretty hard day of 1T, and
had gone to bed early. When his wife
entered the room he was sleeping
soundly, and no man likes to be awak-
ened half an hour after he gets asleep.
She was evidently amused at some
thing, and as she approached the bed
| she exclaimed
John! Oh, john
He never moved.
John! wake up!' she persisted.
| There's one of the funniest incl
dents"
He still slept and she began to shake
him.
s'John, listen to mel" she cried.
He mumbled something and she shook
him again. He opened his eyes and
gruffly asked what the trouble was.
There's the funniest story in one of
the papers," she said. Its about Gold
dust, the millionaire. and it makes me
laugh every time think of it; I'll tell
you about it,"

Dear me" she said, in puzzled sort
of way, don't you really like to be

but she knew that shot had gone home.

Some say that the hypo-

to prevent and cure consump-
ton, if taken in time. With
out doubt they exert great
good in the beginning stages;
they improve the appetite, pro-

the nervous system. But they
lack the peculiar medicinal
properties, and the fat, found

HAS HE BEEN KIDNAPPED?
Since Discharged by Alderman Millar
BERTHE Hoffman Has Not Been Seen.

Despite a fathers watchful eye and
the terrors Of a prison, Grace Bell, the
Laurel Hill chorus girl, and her boy
love. Berthe Hoffman, have departed.
When Alderman Millar sized up the
pair yesterday morning in police court
ard read from the docket that the
young girl was charged with abductirg
19-year-old BERTHE away from home, he
let them depart with the advice to go
their several ways.
Whether or not they took this advice
is a mystery as yet. Grace went to
Philadelphia on the first train; and as
BERTHE was not to be found yesterday
II was generally surmised that he went
thither also to be kidnapped.
Grace told one Of the police officers
that she does not want to have Berthe
bothering about her and would prefer
that he would keep away. She added
that she is a married woman and has
a husband and 5-year-old SON in st.
