Western Roads. Asked to Meet and Re-
consider G. A. X. Rates.
CHICAGO, Jan. rs. - Commander
Walker and the executive committee of
the G. A. r. met during the day to
consider the attitude of the roads in
the Western Passenger association in
refusing to grant a 30-day limit on
tickets to the annual encampment at
st. Paul. 1t was definitely decided
that if the roads refuse the extension
the encampment will not be held in St.
Paul, but before selecting another city
it wa decided to make another effort
to gain the required concession. An
appeal was made to Chairman Cald.
we'll of the Western Passenger associa-
ton to call a special meeting for the
purpose of reconsidering the matter.
The chairman promptly got out a cir
cular to the roads and will call the
meeting if two or more roads express a
desire that he should do SO. Under the
association agreement he cannot call a
meeting unless requested by at least
two roads. If the meeting is not called
the executive committee will remove
the encampment, in ali probability, to
Buffalo.

that Miss Barton and her party will be

still his tongue but without much

a little rhyme:
che talks in the morning, he talks at night,
And to talk all the day is the boys delight"

Immediately added:

And when told to dry up, he sets up a yell"

The twenty-eighth annual convention

B. Anthony, president, delivered her an
nual address which consisted principally
Of a review OF the efforts made in the
early days OF the suffrage movement to
laws more just to women.
Rev, Anna Shaw, vice president at
large, spoke OF the growth OF popular
sentiment in favor of equal suf frage, and
OF the interest in this cause evinced in
the meetings held in Salt Lake, st.
Louis and other cities.
Mrs. Avery Of Philadelphia said:
"We now have six senators and repre-.
s%entatives from three states, on the floor
Of congress all Of whom stand there
with the ever present sense that an i'm

the men,"
A comic fatality seems to pursue the
opponents Of equal rights for women,
impelling each Of them to choose the
most incongruous argument possible.

~cussion in the legislature the represent.
atives OF the liquor interest are loud in
their fears that it would impair the hap

Staple, Barstaple.

In Anglo-Saxon the word "stapol,
"stapel" or "stapul" denoted post or
pillar of wood or stone. In local names
it has various significations. Such posts
or pillars were often erected TO mark
places where markets were held, or
where merchandise could be exposed for
sale. Such probably were Dunstaple,
in Bedfordshire, market on the chalk
downs, and Barnstaple, in Devon.
Sometimes the stapel was a post mark
ing the place of the hundred moots.
We have hundreds called Barnstaple
and Thurstable in Essex, and one called
Staple in Sussex. There are seven places
called Stapleton, but as none of them is
a market town they were probably
merely farmsteads marked by a post,
one Of them, called Stapledun in Domes-
day, being hill with post. So of the
nine Stapl6fords none is a marked town,
and they were probably fords marked
or protected by piles or posts. Stall
bridge, Dorset, called Staplebridge in
Domesday, was probably trestle bridge.
Whitestable in Kent must have taken
its name from white pillar, erected
either for a market or as a guide to
ships entering the harbor, or to which
boats could be moored. Staplehurst
must have been wood marked by a
post, or, like Stockwith, a wood where
stumps or posts were left standing. -

She Was Too Sharp For Them.

One day last winter stylishly dressed
woman stepped from coach in front Of
a big dry goods store in New York and
proceeding to the fur department select
ed seal wrap worth $500. In payment
she rendered a check for 81 900, which
the saleswoman took to the Office. A
messenger was dispatched to the bank,
and he was told that the check was
good. Meantime the woman pretended
to be indignant, demanded a return Of
the check, would accept no apologies
and drove away. Presently she returned
and said she had allowed her temper to
overcome her and ordered the cloak
wrapped up. She was given $700 in
change and disappeared. A second visit
to the bank disclosed the fact that the
woman had withdrawn the 81 200 she
had on deposit there and that the check
was worthless.
