tunnel he had $3.50 with him. He prefer

than pay for II. No money was found
on him when his body was taken from
the debris, and this led to the circulation
of rumor that he had been murdered
for his money.

murder theory. lie says Gaeuon s

it is possible that his pockets were pick

Mrs. Jones does not look like the fiery
agitator that she has been described. 4

hair. She is evidently over the half CEN

girl. Il love my work and it loves me-
she said when her physical vigor was COM

with pleasant voice suggestive of al an

excellent language
Why shouldn't n woman take part in
all efforts for the benefit OF labor" she
asked in response TO question. Labor
is the basis OF all society. A woman
should surely be interested in her sur
rOundings and her home and DO her part
to uplift both. When did begin this
work? So many years ago that l have

over the country, and have always urged
peaceful methods. All these COMPLEX prob

where women vote, is the only State that

laws of Australia and New Zealand with q
view of adopting them.
"a woman becomes no less 4 woman
when she studies social and political con-
6itions and takes part in public affairs. A
broaaened intellect teaches her to love her

loves her home and family better than the

again next week to make several speeches
