Susan B. Anthony's Public Life.


sociation. Now, on the eve of
her S0th birthday, she proposes
to hand the guidance of that or
ganization over to younger hands.
The Woman Suffragists met in
convention last week in Washing
ton. February 10, Miss Anthony's
birthday will be celebrated with
much ceremony. A public meet
ing will be held in the Lafayette
Square Opera House and repre-
sentatives from every State in
the Union, as well as from for
eign lands, win be present to pay
tribute TO the distinguished lead
er.
Susan Brownell Anthony was
born in South Adams, Mass,
February 10, 1920, the daughter
of Danieland Lucy Read Anthony.
Although born in Massachusetts,
she was educated partly in New
York and partly in Philadelphia.
Though Mr.. Anthony was a cot
ton manufactures and one of the
wealthiest men in Washington
county, N. Y, he desired that
his daughter, Susan, should be
trained for some profession. Ac-
cordingly she was educated in
the best private schools for a
teacher, the only vocation then
thought Of for girls, and at 10
Susan found herself teaching a
Quaker family school at 81 a
week and board.
With natural aptitude for the
work Susan was soon pronounced
a successful teacher, and to that
profession she devoted 10 years
of her life. She was an active
member of the New York State
Teacher s Association, and in their
conventions distinguished her
self by her able pleas for the rec
ognition of the principle of equal
rights in all honors and respon-
sibilities of the Association.
Miss Anthony has been deeply
interested in the subject of tenn
perance. In 1847 she joined the
Daughters of Temperance, and in
1852, organized the New York
State Woman's Temperance AS
sociation, the first open temper
ance organization OF women,
Miss Anthony was secretary of
this organization. Since 1852
she identified herself with the
suffrage movement.
The most dramatic event of
Miss Anthony's life was her ar
rest and trial for voting at the
Presidential election of 1872. Ow-
ing to what she afterward looked
upon as the mistaken kindness of
her counsel, who was unwilling
that she should be imprisoned,
she gave bonds, which prevented
her taking her case to the Su-
preme Court, fact she always
regretted. When asked by the
Judge: "You voted as a woman,
did you not?" she replied: "No,
sir; | voted as a citizen of the
United States. "
Miss Anthony was found guilty
of the offence by the Judge, not
by IA jury, because it was ques-
ton of law. She was fined 500
and costs. She replied to the
Judge: "Resistance to tyranny
is obedience to God, and | shall
never pay penny of this unjust
claim, "'and she IS rejoiced in new
er having done so.
She worked earnestly for wom-
an suffrage, and and lost almost
$4,000 in the publication of a
weekly paper in New York known
as The Revolution, in less than
two years time.
From 1870 to 1880 she spoke
every night in the week for equal
freedom and power for women.
She accomplished much for
her movement, and her name
will 90 down and stand unique as
a true and brave worker for her
cause.

Jones, "a wealthy church member died,
and although he was not regarded
very highly by the congregation as a
religious man. yet the minister thought
him the beau ideal of a church mem
Der, probably for bis large financial
donations. At all events, the good
minister was overcome when he heard
of the death. and as he could not break
the sad news to the congregation from
the pulpit he wrote these lines, which
he placed upon the front door of the
church:
"'Brother Blank left for heaven at
6 O'Clock this morning.
During the afternoon a member of
the congregation, who did not share in
the views of the pastor, concerning the
religious character of the lately de.
ceased brother. secured a telegraph
blank and wrote the following. which
was placed on the church door. imme-
diately under the note written by the
minister:
"'Heaven, P. M.-Brother Blank
