Opposed to Woman Suffrage.

Another Colorado woman has been
found who is opposed to woman suf-
frage, and this one is not afraid to give
her name, her address and her rea-
sons. She is Mrs. John Guth, of Dem
yer, who conducted a gambling house
on Eighteenth street, and is popularity
known as the policy queen" The
great Woman's Club of Denver, with
membership of about thousand in
fiuential women, is exerting itself to
secure the honest enforcement of the
law against gambling, and the fact
that the women have the ballot
strengthens their hands in this effort.
The Denver News, after describing
Mrs. Guth and her gambling house,
says:
This woman, when she learned that
her business was to be interrupted
said: " 4 wish some people in Denver
would learn to let other people alone
when they are pursuing legitimate
business for a living. If these woman
suffragists who leave their homes and
babies to run about in politics and
mix up with other peoples affairs
would stay at home and do what they
were put there for, Denver would be-
come a good town. Things We're just
getting to that point where business
was given an impetus by the freedom
of the people, and now comes this
crowd to set the town back again..
1t will be remembered that Bat"
Masterson, of Denver, in an interview
in the Boston Post, declared that wo-
man suffrage had ruined the city by it's
depressing effect on the gambling in
dustry. On inquiry, it was found that
he was prize-fghter who had killed
several victims, and that his own gam
bling house, among others, had been
closed as a result OF equal suffrage.

1t does not reflect credit on American
literary taste that such old and excel
lent publishing houses as Harpers and
D. Appleton & Co. should not be able
to keep their heads above the financial
waters. 1t may be simply poor bust
ness management in both instances.
but probably these failures would not
have occurred if these publishers had
paid less attention to publishing good
standard literature and more to appeal
ing to the "Sapho" taste of the reading
public.

Judge Freer has acted the manly
part in gracefully withdrawing from
the race for the Republican nomina-

accusation against him was made.
His withdrawal will not lose him

many sterling and manly qualities.

WE MAIDS.

For the Register.
Had beaus who never talked plain,
Ard wrote letters that never came,
Have none but ourselves to blame
For being true maids the same.
We never would dance. you know,
Were delighted when sighting a beau,
We never sweet kisses would throw,
Nor own that we loved them so.
For Others to talk thus means strife,
Such gossip would cut like q KNIT.

THE BRTTTsH At A sTANDsI

THE B1ttTlSH AT A STANDSIlLL.
After the brilliant invasion of the
Free State by Lord Roberts, it looks
as if the British forces had decided to
stop and rest for a good spell. While
Lord Roberts is busy with affairs in
the Free State the Beers have rein
force dtheir Notifications and massed
their forces into a stonewall opposi
ton to the British, who have been
fought to standstill in recent engage
ments Methuen's army is tied up at
Warrenton and Col Plumer has suf-
fered a reverse. The prospect of re-
lief for Mafeking is now more remote
than ever. Moreover, the Free State,
after its first decentralization, after the
defeat and capture of Cronje and the
entry of the British into Bloemfontein,
appears to be pulling itself together
again, determined to fight it out on the
original line.
Evidently the backbone of Boer re-
sistance to the British is not broken,
despite the severe blows dealt it re-
Gently by Lord Roberts. There will
be much hard fighting and great loss
before the Queens soldiers make
triumphal entry into Pretoria.

Wrestled With "a Burglar.

Horatio b. Koch, merchant, of
Allentown, had a tn rilling experience
with burglar Tuesday night and had
a narrow escape from being shot and
killed. During tho night Mr.. Koch
arose to get a drink of water. He
noticed light down stairs, and return
ed to his room and pressed the burglar
alarm communicating with the residence
of his brother, Frank W. Koch, next
door.
In an instant Mr.. Koch was confront
ed by man who pointed a revolver in
his face. Mr.. Koch let himself fall on
the burglar and held him firmly.
The robber tried to free his hands so
as to be able to use his revolver. After
wrestling for about minute, the burg
lar managed to free his hand and fired
his revolver at Mr.. Koch at close range
The bullet just grazed the skin at the
right ribs.
Mr. Koch permitted himself to fall
upon the floor and the fellow, thinking
he had killed Mr.. Koch, escaped.
The only thing secured by the robber
was watch and chain belonging to
Mr.. Koch valued at 500.

Mrs. Jones Pleads Guilty.

Mrs. Alice Jones, of Parsons, the wo-
man who went to England with a
boarder, Gerge Stephenson, after first
having secured 5000 by placing mort
gage on her husbands property, and
who was indicted on the charge of
forgery and fraudulent acknowledgment,
appeared before Judge Woodward Mon
day afternoon and entered plea of
guilty to the second charge.
Judge Woodward suspended sentence
and accepted the woman's own recog-
nizance in the sum of $500 to appear for

will be called before Judge Lynch for
sentence this week.
