Woman Suffrage

st. Johu's Episcopal Church Reopened for
Worship Yesterday
An Eloquent and Scholarly Sermon by
Rev Mr.. Thomson of Unity Church.
Services at the Universalist
Church-At Y. M. c. A. Hall.

A large audience was present in Simp-
son tabernacle last evening to hear Rev.
C. C. Mclean discuss Woman Suffrage.
The speaker chose for the foundation
for his remarks Gen. ", 26-27-2S. He
said that woman and man are alike
responsible for the government OF the
home. and have the same interest in
the welfare Of the country and the
government. God created man and wo-
man and said: Let them have domin-
ion." The woman was not to be the sub
ject or slave of the man. We concede
that women can preach the Gospel, edit
papers, control banks and fill all the
stations in business, but are not capable
of casting a ballot intelligently. Wo-
man has risen to a position in society
and business by her own perseverance.
until she has nobly tested her ability to
fill any and all the responsible positions
in business. Give woman the ballot,
and 1 guarantee the moral atmosphere
of politics will be purified. Women are
more moral than men and have more
moral courage than men. Some object
to women voting because they do not
bear arms. To fight against immoral
ity requires more courage than to stand
upon the DaltleHelu. Let Wouldl Nots
and there will not be 1000 saloons In
California. A man is not wise who does
not take his wife into partnerrnip WITH
him in all the affairs of life. politics ir-
cluded. Wherever woman goes she
takes refinement with her. Give her the
ballot, and the polls will not be an ex-
ception to her influence. Is woman de-
prived of her franchise because she is
disloyal? No. She has proved her 10y
atty and patriotism in d thousand ways
in the dark days of war. Where women
have the franchise reforms have come.
The speaker was frequently inter-
rupted by hearty applause.

1t is very remarkable that the dret
murder mentioned in the Bible was
committed under the Influences OF the
theo logical controversy. Sectarian the
ology has engendered terrible hatreos.
and these hatreds have put to death
millions of our race. The brotherhood
which Christ came to establish upon
this earth has suffered more from de-
nominational theology than from any
other source.
The Cainites fought against the Abel.
ties and slew them in the fields Of Con-
troversy. Cain was summoned to tho
sacerdotal court and accused of mure
der, witnesses were called. Cain pleaded
not guilty and he very skillfully evaded
the direct questions which had been put
to him. He was found guilty and con-
demned to Punishment from the regions
of Eden. Cain appealed to the court for
mercy, and his judge granted his re-
quest and branded upon his forehead,
perhaps, the sign of the Cross This mark
was a warning that the court would
punish most severely any avenger that
would kill Cain. 1t rendered his person
sacred. Gains crime was not commit
ted in cold blood. 1t was the result Of ex-
cited passion. This may have been the
extenuating circumstances which led
the court to spare Gains life.
This fight between classes, parties
and churches still continues. Abel'e

and it seemed to Cain that Abel WA1
preferred by the authorities, and as he
brooded over these things his counten-
ance fell. and the mad spirit of revenge
took possession of his SOUL making him
murder his brother. The employers Of
this country, as a rule, are hard work
ing and just men, and the employees ere
hard-working and honest men, but q
few masters and servants are not what
they should be, and they make a great
deal of noise and say and do foolish and
wicked things. The agitators who stir
up the spirit Of strife Between masters
and servants, creating suspicion. hatred
and revenge, are the sons of Belial IN
our Industrial departments.
Eve declared that Cain was fi1ans
god Literally she said, II have &C.
quired man-Jehovah." She regarded
Cain as an incarnation of Jehovah. 1t
may be said that she was greatly dig
appointed in Cain, and that he was
devilish rather than divine, but 1t must
be remembered that only divinity can
sin. A dog. horse or a bird cannot
sin, because they are not responsible.
But a human being, whose life is Gods
breath, can sin, because his divinity
makes his responsibility.

The Crown City Cycling club of Pas
adena will give race meet on its third
of a mile track at Pasadena on Thanks
giving day. 1t will be a regular sane
toned l.. A. w. meet, with both pro-
fessional and amateur races. One OF
the Innovations Is 100-mile record race,
which will be paced all the way and start
at $3.50 in the morning. Will r. Ruees
of this city will be the star performer
in this race, and Rodriguez, the we'll
known Spanish rider, has also agreed
to take part. About five tandem teams
will pace, and there is probability of
the Rambler quad and triplet being sent
down from San Francisco for this meet.
BY starting this race in the morning, 1t
will be finished about the time meets
usually begin.
Another innovation to be sprung by
| the Pasadena club is a ten-mile record
team race, each contestant to furnish
his own PAGER. Lacy will ride for the
| East Sides, and Shoemaker for the Riv-
ersdes. Delay of the Road club, also
may take part. The c. c. c. c. trophy
| for this race is a silver and gold water
| set valued at $50, the limit of amateur
| prizes. 1t will have to be won only this
time, and will be practical ornament
| to any club house The other amateur
races are third of q mile dash, one
mile open, single or tandem paced, and
handicap. probably for three miles.
| There will be a mile open for profess
sionals, and three-mile Pasadena der
by for the men who ride for money.
In this last race there will be three
| prizes for each mile.
| The splendid Pasadena track will be
I gotten into record shape, and the pace
/ makers for the record races will be the
best riders of the southwest. including
Delay. Cromwell, Spier, Kirkpatrick,
Stirnson, Bell, Coty, Hill, Wilson, Frost
Sallada, Cowan, and host of other
| good men.
A football game is being arranged for
| by the Crown City Cycling club, and
that or basebell game will take place
during the long distance races. Trick
| riding and attempts at some OF the short
distance records will probably be on the
long program, all of which, with seats
in the fine grand stand, cost but 2g
cents. In the ten-mile record race the
contestants will start together, and
each have tandem pace, so each man
can ride just as fast as he can get pace
to CO.. This will mean a spirited con-
test OF the kind never before seen OH
the coast and probably every mile will
be ridden close to two minutes, and
some under that.
The famous eastern trainer Frank
Lyman Of Chicago, who brought out
"Pye" Bliss, Dirnberger, Gardner and
other famous crackajacks, will prob
ABLY take charge of the Pasadena track
and get it into shape for fast work and
record breaking. He examined this
track last week and prcEounced it euua
to any dirt track in America, with sur.

TRAP AND TRIGGER.

Marines Chick, captain Of the Los
Angeles City Gun clubs team of blue
rock shooters, that shot at the recent
San Jose tournament, claims the Tar
get association team trophy that the
Olympic team now holds, and is max
ing a vigorous protest for what he con-
siders due him. The Los Angeles team
made 100 points to the Olympic's SO,
but one Of the southern teams breaks
was protested, and the protest was al
lowed by the tournament committee.
The Los Angeles team then refused to
shoot off the resulting tie, and the
Olympics shot and took the cup. The
matter will probably be brought before
the Target association at it's next meet

Next Friday evening there will be
another of those enjoyable boxers
nights at the Los Angeles Athletic club.
Three excellent matches have been ar
ranged. The event of the evening, a
fifteen round exhibition between Young

one of the closest seen in some time,
as they are about as evenly matched
as it Is possible to be. Both men have
been preparing for the event since their
last meeting the first of this month.
and are already in excellent trim. The
six round bout between Aurelio Herrera
of Bakersfield and Mike Thornton of
San Pedro Is claiming its share of at
tention. The outcome viii be watched
with more than ordinary interest, as
both men have defeated Joe Welch, the

According to the present promise every

The general opinion seems to be that
there will have to be some very radical
changes of management If the Agricul-
tural Fair association hopes to ever have
another successful race meeting under
its auspices. Complaints of all sorts
were very general during the ton dave
racing which closed last Tuesday. All
sorts of stories of funny work" were
abroad. but the case had to be very
flagrant indeed to pierce the obtuse Wis
ion of the judges. The general manage
ment was about as meager and wretch
ed as could we'll be imagined, and If rae

popularity, the sooner some one who

Important to settlers.

Solicitor General Conrad filed mo-
tion with supreme court Monday to set
aside the judgment entered and grant
new hearing of the case of the Northern
Pacific company against Leonard 2. Col
burn, in order that the United States
might have an opportunity to intervene.
He stated that the case involved the
rights of many thousand of settlers.
The case was appealed from Montana,
where Colburn claimed land within the
Northern Pacific grant, though no fling
had been made. The interior depart
ment had uniformly held that such set
tlement exempted land from the opera
tions of grant. The supreme court
took the opposite view in the Colburn
case, and rendered an opinion which the
land Office officials say must result in
ousting many settlers from their homes
all through the West, if allowed to
stand. The court granted a stay of
mandate, and will consider the motion
to set aside Its former Judgment.

THE DAYS GROW LONGER.
And Ye Editor Being short INDUCES in
Musing.

The sun reached the lowest point of
declination Monday and has started on
his journey northward. which will ter
inmate the 21st of June. The days
will grow steadily longer, and it will be
but little while until the purple iris,
and the Thousand delicate blooms of
Spring will gladden. the awakening soil.
As we wrestle with the lodging armholes
of our old overcoat, and occasionally dust
the accumulations from our old winter
garments, we are glad that this is so.
Who knows what the spring will bring
forth? We at least try to console our
self with the happy thought that may
hap along with all it's other gaudy
ornaments, a new, brand new, suit of
lightweight Spring garments may
sprout somewhere within our reach,
while the moon is in the dark. ''Hope
springs eternal in the human breast"
says the poet, and we would that we
might change this order of things so
that coats would spring for a little
while on our patient old back, instead
However, Spring comes in apace, and
we will trust the blooming jade in hopes
that when she gets here she may recip-
rocate.
What pity that the gentle goddess
of Spring. so generous in her gifts of
flowers and birds, of green leaves and
brilliant blooms, of verdant sod and
fragrant breezes, of bloom of cherry and
peach, white and pink, each tree a
pyramid of bee-wooing bloom, of apple
blossoms with tint caught from Venus
cheeks and perfume, stolen from her
sighs-what pity, we say, that with
the droning bee provided with such a
wealth of sweets, the clear Soprano

blare of brazen throated bands, adyer-
tising the advent of the delightful picnic
season, and the delicate feast provided
for him-what pity that with the
erstwhile barren hilleides, clothed with
verdure and the trees supporting a
spring suit of leaves, that the light
tripping divinity did not provide more
generously for the outward habiliment
of her admirer, man. Why did she not
provide for our comfort and our pleasure,
the spring tree, the bachelors
breeches tree, the ligbt-underwear tree,
the Easter bonnet bush? Why not
provide toothpick shoes for our limbs,
as well as leaves for those of the trees,
so that we might take our pick? Why
not grow clean cotton socks without a
darned hole, as prolifcally as she does
the useless pine needles that have moth
ing to sew?
