PATTIsoN FOR BRYAN.s NATE.
PcnnsyIvanian's Name FavorabIy Con.
siIrred by Prominent Demacrafs

The Chronicle of yesterday says: 1T is
learned through the democratic national
headquarters that preparations are being
made to boom eX-Gov. Robert Z. Pattison
of Pennsylvania candidate for Vice Pres
ident at the Kansas City convention. Dem
ocratic officials here are not willing to be
quoted for publication, but they admit Mr.
Pattison would be strong candidate, and
that his acceptance not only would strength
en- the ticket, but would afford an exit from
the difficulty of finding valid defense to
the criticism that the party managers are
disposed to ignore the east"
EX-Gov. Robert E. Pattison was inter-
viewed in hiladelphia last night regarding
the story telegraphed from Chicago to the
effect that preparations are under way to
boom him for the vice presidential nominal
ton on the democratic ticket. Mr. Pattison
said that he had never been informed that
such a movement was on foot, and added
that he did not even know who was back of
the proposition He felt grateful, he said.
toward those who had considered him in
connection with the nomination. He de-
clined, however, to say whether he would
accept If the honor was conferred upon
him, on the ground that he could not ac-
cept nor decline anything that had not been
offered to him.

The Automobiles.

Stroudsburg is to have an auto
mobile service. A company has
been organized with a capital of TO-
600. which proposes to purchase
three automobiles to he used in the
transportation of passengers. M
better field exists tnan Milford for
an enterprise of this kind. Our
roads are specially adapted for such
vehicles and should line be estab-
lished to Port Jervis it would nc
doubt do a thriving business because
one could be run number of times
daily, and the trips could be made
in a much shorter time than with
horses. Let some enterprising par.
ties organize a scheme of this kind.

AN UNJUST LAW
TOWARD WOMEN.

The State Federation of Women's
Club of Penna., at the recent Con-
vention, recommended that members
Of its various clubs inform themsel.
YES of the laws of our State, espeo-
tally those relating to women and
children The Pennsylvania Wo-
man Suffrage Association at the
coming session of the Legislature,
purposes an effort whereby the exist
ing Intestate Law shall beso chang
ed and amended as to place husband
md wife on an equality, in the event
of either dying intestate. Under
the present statute, should the wife
lie without making a will, her estate
becomes the property of her surviv-
ing husband, during the period of
his life. The law makes no refer
3nce to the children. All reverts to
the husbands keeping. On the con-
rary, should the husband die with
)ut making a will, the wife is entit-
led to but QUE third of the real es-
tate during her life the remainder
passing to the Child or children. If
there be no issues urviving, then the
husbands next of kin receive one.
half the property, and the wife the
other half.
This discrimination is so manifest
ly unjust, that married women all
over the state should seriously pro-
test against their legal status. The
)ft-quoted argument, that because
If her political Observation-Disclosures,
woman is specially protected, falls
dat in the face of condition which
gives the husband the use of the
whole property in any case, and the
widow but third, or at most half
interest.
The present law is capable of Pc
culiar inference. First, that it is
necessary to protect the child gainst
the mother by two-t thirds provision
a condition not imposed upon the
fathers love. Secondly, that it does
not pay to bear children, the pre-
MUM of one half interest being
solely for the chiJdless widow. Third
ly, as our lawmakers are all men
it would apper that laws are some-
times framed from masculine self
interest. IDA Potter BOYER.

Our Street Lights.

1t would be matter of some in
terest to people of the Borough to
know how many street lights are in
passable condition. Last Sunday ev-
ening at O'Clock the one on the corn
er of Ann and Broad was giving very
little light, the one on corner of Ann
and Fourth had no globe and was
practically useless, the one on corner
of Catharine and Fourth was nothing
but a little red flicker.
There was no light at all corner Of
High and Fourth and a large stream
Of water was running down High so
that pedestraous greatly needed the
advantage Of a lamp at that point.
There was no light corner of High
and Third. AT least three lights on
two blocks were of no use, while on
two other blocks there were no lights
at all. If the lights are to be pub
lie benefit they are needed on dark
raining nights when water is run
ming in the streets. There are of no
practical use on bright moonlight
nights, and it would not matter if
they were not lighted then. We do
not know who may be to blame for
this, nor are we fault finding, be-
cause accidents will happen, we are
only calling attention to fact which
existed, and which should be remed-
led.

The Horse to the Rescue.

Paris is the headquarters for freak
medical discoveries, and every lit
tie while the doctors there announce
wonder just to keep themselves in
trim. The lntest and wierdest of
the lot is special band of serum
calculated to paralyze the Demon
Drink.
An able bodied horse is permitted
to partake of the flowing bowl until
he reaches the point where hum
ming birds begin to look like eagles.
His veins are then tapped and the
resulting serum is administered hy-
podermically to the victim of the
morning cocktail and the evening
nightcap. 1t is confidentally announc.
ed that the patient thus treated
will tremble at the mere sight of an
imbibitorium, and cease from pilot
ing schooners across tho bar.
The horse world should welcome
this innovation with enthusiastic
resolutions of gratitude. For some
years the horse has been patient
martyr to chrome sore throat in or
der that victims of diphtheria might
have chance to combat that dread
disease. Now he has an opportunity
to embark on one long sweet jag,
and with such privilege as this,
can it be truthfully stated that he is
below man?
