And the Sound Of Bugles Revived His
Memory of Youth.

i f2ltering old horse, apparently rlIe FOR

lively scene, attended by an accident, last

When withina few feet of JolnsonS team

lantrv as to contest her right 20 the
place. He claims Mrs. Jetlers is consti-
tutionally disqualified because of her
sex. The reason given for this supposed
disqualification is the queerest part OF
the whole proceeding In England,
under the common law, no woman,
except the queen is eligible to hold office;
the common law prevails III Maryland;
ergo, no woman is eligible to Office III

the supreme court OF the state for final

there is no difference in principle, and
but that the state librarian (to which
office Mrs LETTERS was appOinted) Is
paid and school trustees are not, the
office Of the latter is far more important
than that of the former. Perhaps it II

to 90 forth that woman is dcbarred from
the equal chance with men i'll all the
things in public life for which she is
qualified. Women have given too much
proof of their ability and usefulness as
public servants TO be now confronted
with an objection on account of their
sex.
