BOTH WERE OFFENDED.
An Amusing Collision Reported from the Windiest Corner in Chi-
 cago, the Windy City.

The Chicago Daily News, which re. ports this incident, says the wind was blowing great guns, and about the Masonic temple it was getting in double work. The girl came down Washington street toward State hold. ing to her hat with both hands. and the man rounded the corner of the temple with his head lowered to face the gale. Naturally they ran squarely into each other.
 The wind whipped the long skirt of the young woman around the knees of the astonished man, who lost his balance and grabbed her fervently about the neck.
 .sir!" she shrieked, "what do you mean?"
 'Madam!" he gasped, still strug- gling with the skirt which clung te- naciously, ''let me go!'
 'Let you go!" she repeated, indig. nantly. When I can't get away from you!"
 ''Neither can l." roared the an gnished man. The skirt held him and

Nnt All sinnera

The crown prince of Germany is so devoted to his mother that he will not permit her to be classed among or dinary persons.
 A clergyman was once explaining to the. crown prince, who is l2 years old now, that all men are sinners, where upon the little fellow asked him if his father, the emperor, was not an ex- ception to the rule. No, he is not" answered the clergyman; "the kaiser is sinner, like every other mortal"
 'sWell, I'm sure of one thing said the. little prince, land that is that my mother is no sinner. ''-C Chicago Chron- icle.

Cats to checls. the Rabbits.

Australian papers state that the ex- pertinent of the West Australian gov- ernment in turning dome stic cats loose in the southeastern districts of the colony to check the invasion of rab- bits from South Australia has been a pronounced success. The felines de- stroyed immense numbers of the pests, and in some cases almost cleared the squatters' runs of the rabbits.' In an- ticipation of the demand which is ex- pected for cats for this work breeding establishments are being started It is believed, however, that it will be found much cheaper to importthe anil mals.-N.

MACIAs TO SULLIVAN.

Learning that David Sullivan is now in New York, let me call his attention to the fact that William CSid) Broad is desirious of another battle. The last encounter at Louisville was a very un- satisfactory one, so far as the referee ing was concerned, and Broad would like meeting at, some neutral point, where Sullivan woHld hot receive any favors from referee or spectators. Broad has no choice as to place, but bars Louisville from the list If Sulli- van can be induced to fight at Hart ford, Toronto, Denver or any place where purse can be secured, well and good. Broad has two decisions over Sullivan, and the last bout was unfair ly called. draw. Now, let us hear from Sullivan. .n

WOMEN IN POLITICS.
Mary A. Livermore, Lecturer and Author, Says Their Influence Is
 Great and Intelligent.

Mary A. Livermore, Lecturer and
 Author, says Their Influence Is
 Great and Intelligent.
 Women are organized to-day as never before in the history of the world. Their clubs, leagues, councils, circles, unions, chapters and associa- tions for all kinds of purposes are in evidence by the thousands, and their memberships run up into the million. In these organizations lectures are delivered on all conceivable topics, and not alone on ''art, literature and Browning,'' as, the maligners of clubs would have us believe. Every social and public question under heaven is openly discussed in these societies by women appointed beforehand, and who have prepared themselves for the occasion, and reports of the debates are published in their official organs.
 Inevitably, this enlargess the educa- ton of women and assists them in the formation of opinions concerning the mooted squestions of theS y in which men.are interested. The average wom- an is as we'll educated as the average man, perhaps better, and is quite as we'll informed, and men know it. It is no uncommon thing to hear a man say nowadays: My wife feels deeply about this Filipino war;" or "this can- teen question. have not had time to read and think about it, as she has, but I'm inclined to believe she's right"
 The political influence" of women is felt strongly in towns and cities of Massachusetts when Q local election is pending. Few of the 12o towns of the state that voted a no-license law last year. could have done it without the 5slR of fscnsen k The. held no-license rallies, arranged for effective speak ing and music, distributed literature, invoked the aid of the ministers and churches, canvassed for votes, and sup plemented the men with whom they worked in every way possible. Thirty three of the states of the union have local option laws in some form on their statute books, which means that on this one vital question alone women exert an enormous political inhu- ence." Women have been the saddest sufferers from the liquor traffic from time im1nemorial, and they may be trusted to hit it hard when they have a chance.
 Women took deep interest in the election of Hon. MT. Bates during the last gubernatoria1c campaign. They had no especial grievance against his

THOUGHTS DUE CHAMPION.

Jeffries thinks Marty McCue would make hot fight against McGovern. The heavyweight champion says Me Cue is a great and willing little fight CT, and has never been given half the credit that is his rightful due. Jeffries should at once repair to the thought foundry and secure a consignment of new ones. McCue has always had his just dues. He is a clever 126 pounder of the second division and would doubt less last two and half rounds with McGovern.

AParndise of Clubs.

The city of Zurich must be the very paradise of clubs. In proportion to the number of it's inhabitants it pos sesses more clubs than any other city in the world. At the end of 1893 it all ready had 534 clubs; but in 1901 they had increased to I'll. Nearly every one of them holds it's yearly, quarterly, monthly or weekly 'svereinsfest," so that if citizen could only get himself elected member of each of them he might keep two festivals every day in the year.-Wes minister Gazette.

What do you think of that German chap, Weisbecker? Five times at bat and four singles and home run was all he got. That Is hitting some, and some of his comrades could take few lessons from this player. 6
 Joseph Locke, who has played on the Bristol ball team for the past month as change catcher and outfielder, has been suspended by the Bristol Base Ball association, and he left for his home in Columbus, O., yesterday morning. The trouble arose over the fact that Locke claimed $125 month, and the management saw fit to give him $115. He was not satisfied with the sum and refused to accompany the club on it's eastern trip. As it is now he cannot play with any other league, as he is under contract with the Bris- tol magnates. The opinion in Bristol is that Locke has missed good chance and is foolish to give up his position.

GERMANS WAR
ON CHAMBERLAIN
Kaiser's People Bitterly
Resent Criticism Of
English.
Reichstag May Consider Ref
erences to the Old
Soldiers.

BERLIN, Nov. 19.-The anti-Chamber-
lain movement in Germany is spreading.
In spite of the remonstrance issued Off
cially by the Deutscher Kriegerbund, the
Society of Veterans of Berlin to-day held
large and enthusiastic meeting. in
which the utterances of Chamberlain at
Edinburgh were heartily denounced
Other soldiers anti-Chamberlain meet
ings are to be held at Cologne, Null
helm, Brunswick and Bonnvetie, and stu
dents meetings of like character will be
held at Bonn, Wurzburg, Leipsic, Halle
and Munich, while popular meetings are
announced in Bochum, Brunswick and
other places.
Referring to these matters, the Post,
speaking semi-officially, says the Govern
ment sees no reason to identify itself
with the vehement utteranees at ire
sponsible meetings, or to take action
against Chamberlain's accusations con-
cerning the German soldiers, since the
latter's words at Edinburgh were moth
ing more than the private utterance of
the British statesman But if the matter
is broached in the Reichstag affairs will
assume an entirely different course. In
this event the Government would find
occasion to express itself befttingly.

PLOT To BREAK
JAIL M|SCARRIES
Murderer Suesser Fails
in Attempt to Free
Himself.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN JOSE, Nov. ia plot to break
Jail. with George Suesser, the murderer
of Sheriff Farley of Monterey County, at
it's head, has been unearthed by Jailer
Dreischmeyer in the County Jail. I'm
pltcated with SueSser, who is under SEN
tence of death, were Frank Johnson, an
ex-convict, who was taken to San Quentin
on Monday to serve a burglary sentence;
Jan John, Chinese convicted of perjury,
and a prisoner named Curtis.
Owing to the overcrowded condition of
the jail the men were removed from the
little to the big tank. They occupied cells
adjoining one another. Some time ago a
the Jail. He was a cripple and on the side
of his shoe was steel rod to support the
ankle. Suesser and the others took this
shoe from Bowman and out of the piece
of steel made saw. The cripple was
threatened with vengeance If he reported
the loss of his shoe. This steel was con-
verted into an excellent saw and blankets
were torn and woven into a rope.
In the rear of the cells occupied by the
men were small windows covered by bars,
and above the bars another grating. II
was proposed to cut these with the saw.
The men could then climb to the ceiling,
and after cutting the bars over the sky
light reach the top of the building. Then
they could lower themselves to the ground
with the blanket rope.
Before the plans could be carried out
Johnson was taken to San Quentin and a
search of the cells revealed the hidden
articles by means of which the men hoped
to escape. Suesser and the two others are
now doing stunt in solitary confinement.

COAL WAGON WRECKED
BY POST-STREET CAR
Brakes Did Not Hold and Valuable
Horse Will Die Of It's
Tni1rriaS

A coal wagon belonging to c. A War
rem was wrecked on Post street, Just be-
low Taylor. at noon yesterday by an
electric car of the Pest street line, and a
valuable horse was sc badly injured that
1t will probably die. The driver, Walter
Stanton, was thrown violently from the
wagon and severely bruised. All of the
four horses of the team were more or less
bruised or battered and one side of the
car was wrecked but, fortunately, none
of the passengers were hurt.
The car was coming at high rate of
speed down the hill and the wagon was
going in the same dir ection. AS the car
approached the mOtorman applied the
brakes, but the rails were wet and the
brakes would not hold. The car plunged
ahead with its momentum scarcely dimin-
ished and struck the wagon just after
crossing Taylor street. The wagon was
lifted into the air and 1T and the horses
down the street before the car stopped.
One of the horses, fine bay animal val
ued at S175. was got free from the wreck
age of car and wagon only after much
effort, and then almost bled to death from
cuts in the groin before it could be taken
to a veterinary surgeon on Howard street
Two women were on the front outside
seats of the car, but succeeded In jump
ing off without being injured. The pas
sengers inside were showered with coal
and broken glass, but no one was hurt
and though one side of the front of the
car was ground into kindling wood the
motor man escaped injury.
