SAN FRANCISCO, JULY 2S.-The su-
preme court Of California has declared
that the Stratter law, which provides for
registration for primary elections. IS un-
constitutional.
Col. Felix Heiskell, an old Virginia
democrat was in Kingfisher the other
day and was asked by Uncle Jake Ad-
mire how he was going to vote this
fall. He replied: zone thing is certain,
if 1 live to vote, shall vote for Flynn.
/ voted for him two years ago be-
lieving that if any man could get free
homes for Oklahoma he could do it.
He has done it. I have a homestead
near Kiel, and l was not able to pay
S24O for it without embarrassment. 1t
is the home of my old age. I am proud
of it, and expect to live upon it as long
as 1 do live. Wouldn't 1 be an migrate
to now vote against Mr.. Flynn. es-
pecially when politics cut so little fig

gress-so my democratic principles are
safe, so far as he is concerned-and,

CHICAGO, JUL Y2S.-Mrs. John A. Lo-
gan at the residence Of her daughter
Mrs. w. f. Tucker, reiterated her pub
hshed criticism of the womans exhibit
at the Paris exposition and pronounced
the cable reply to it as unreliable and
misleading. She said:
"There is practically no exhibit of Am
orican women at the exposition, and 1
think is was a mistake to convey the
impression that there was. In the first
place the managers of the exposition
were much opposed to having a womens
exhibits, as such, and particularly to hav-
ing women represented as commissioners.
They conveyed an expression of this fact
to Commissioner Peck, and for a long
time he opposed the appointment of a wo-
man commissioner. In the face of these
facts L am surprised that Mrs. Palmer
should have wanted a place on the board,
or that she would accept It when rendered
to her.
THE result has been that the commits
sioners have accorded her particularly no
recognition, since there were no places
on the special committees in which she
could serve. AS far as l am able to as
certain the women have been accorded
no social recognition by tho managers
whatever. 1t is not customary abroad for
women to attend social functions without
their husbands, and almost all of them
were arragned especially for men, Neither
did the foreigners care to sit on commit
tees with women, and their absence on
such occasions was the natural result." "

believe, I would vote for him anyhow,
and yet L am as firm a believer in DEM
ocratic principles as ever. L do not see
how any homesteader in oklahoma
could justify his conscience by refus-
ing to vote for Flynn. / am not alone
in this view. The result of the vote
will show that men sometimes rise
above politics"

DEPUTIES GUARD THE MINES.
No Serious Violence Done Yet in
Morris Comfy

Especial to ''The Jersey City Newsal
DOVER, July Is, 19OO-Sheriff Baker has
sent deputies to most of the mines where
the miners went on strike yesterday.
There has been no violence of any seri-
business, but the strikers have been threat
ening to draw the fires under the boilers
by force. This would mean the stoppage
of the pumps, and the flooding of the
different mines. In that case it would take
long time to resume work after the
strike is over.
The Thomas Mine, at Mount Pleasant,
asked for guards today and received them
Besides sending men from this city and
Morristown, Sheriff Baker is swearing in
the tinbernen employed in the mines.
They are not on strike, and will be en-
ployed as deputies, since there is nothing
they can do in the mines. The strikers
at the Thomas Mine have given the en-
glneer until morning to draw his fires.
The manager of the mine says that the
shutting down of the pump for forty-eight
hours would result in stoDpage of all
mining for six months

WOMANMURDERED.
Hoboken Police Find Mutil-
ated Body Of Mrs.
Meyrhack.
Her HUSBAND MISSING.
They Quarelled the Night
the Deed Was
Done.

The Hoboken police found the mutilated
body of Mrs. Minnie Meyrhack, thirty-sev-
en- years old, of No. 3O7 Clinton street, in
Hoboken, last evening. She was found in
bed dead, with her skull crushed in Mary
Gilander the landlady of the tenement,
notified Patrolmen j. Meyer and D. Lehey
shortly after nine O'Clock that a cake of
ice and some newspapers had lain in front
of the womans door on the ground floor
all day This fact made her suspicious.
The police broke open the door.
The apartments were in darkness. On
bed in middle room the body of the
woman was found wrapped up in two
heavy blankets. The face was turned
towards the wall, concealing a long cut
behind the right ear This had been made
apparently with a heavy blunt imple-
ment. 1t laid the skull open to the brain.
| Another ugly cut was on the forehead,
and both eyes were blackened and closed.
The body was badly bruised in other
places.
A search of the apartments resulted in
the finding of heavy pine club, a steel
claw hammer and a small hatchet. These
were under the bed but none of them
bore any trace of blood stains
Detective Sergeant r. Nelson learned
from Henry Breneker, a neighbor, that
the woman and her husband, John, quar-
relied frequently Meyrhack used to beat
his wife often and her cries for help We're
well known to the tenants, he said.
| Mrs. Gilander said she had heard the
couple quarreling Monday night The
woman cried until some time past mid
night and then suddenly became quiet
Meyrhack is a longs horeman employed
in the provision gang on the North Ger
man Lloyd pier. The fire on the piers
did not throw him out of work as he was
retained in the company's employ on
the New York side of the river He was
| in the habit of leaving home at four
o'clock in the morning. No one heard him
go out yesterday. The police last night
were not able to obtain any trace of his
whereabouts
A saloon keeper on River street. whom
ne was in the habit of visiting daily had
seen nothing of him for twenty-four
hours.
Patrolmen Meyer and Lehey reported
that the body had evidently been in the
bed since Monday night. 1t was black
nearly to the waist and had already be-
gun to decompose. 1t was removed to the
morgue. Coroner Charles Hoffman re-
fused to let anyone see it there last night
Detective Sergeant Nelson said this
morning that he had all his men hunting
for the missing husband and expected to
have him taken into custody before long
HE is the only one who can throw
light on what is now mystery the
detective said. whether or not he was
the perpetrator of this crime remains to
be seen. Murder has certainly been COM
mitted, it would appear, although for
what motive it is not yet possible to learn.
The dead woman was insured in the Han
cock Company, but if she was murdered
by her husband it is not likely that it
was for the insurance money. Thus far
the whole thing is mystery which moth
ing can clear but the apprehension of
Meyrhach We hope to accomplish this
soon.''

dropped it on the street in plain view of
number of .'cabbies.'' The book fell
in such a way that the number was
plainly visible.
With a mad rush for the pocketbook all
the drivers became tangled up in grab
bing, clothes tearing mass. One man,
more athletic than the others got hold
of the pocketbook and after tearing him
self way from the others, who made fran
tic efforts to relieve him of the treasure.
the man started on wild dash down
the street. The crowd of Elke, splitting
with laughter shouted after him.
Hello, Bill! Rubber!'
The man stopped as if shot and looked
at the pocketbook, suspecting a trick
When he realized the truth he threw the
pocketbook to the ground with an oath
and walked away.
