The Attorney General Of Illinois
Concerning Women Voting.

Maurice T. Molony, the former At
torney General Of tho State of Illinois
and now Mayor of Ottawa, Illinois, is g
strong friend of womsn's equality. He
says: 81 know OF no reason why women
over twenty-one years of age should not
vote in this State, not alone where
they are taxpayers, but as freely and
as fully as men do now. The absurdity
of giving the franchise to q lot OF for
eigners who do not understand, and
therefore, scarcely appreciate the
genius OF our institutions, and at the
same time depriving intellectual, ma
tive born women of the same right,
surpasses comprehension. l do not
sympathize with the pretended fear
(for believe 1t only q pretense) Of those
male bipeds who play politics for liv-
ing and who, feel do not love their
country-that 1t would be dragging wo-
man from her true position in the house
hold into the arena of politics, thereby
lowering her dignity, II she were per-
mitted to vote; that 1t would ruin all of
her true womanly instincts and entire
ly unit her for social duties. It is the
cropping out of the same brutal, i'm
perious instinct In man that has always
been predominant In his character.
History verifies 1t. This lord Of cres-
tioD, as hesdn-gines himself to be.
would suier in his own estimation, un-
less women were his slaves at home and
never his equal In any place. OF course,
all this will give way in time and l be-
lieve we approach more nearly toward
an equality in our country than in any
other.n

A special to the Chicago Record
Herald from Williams Bay, Wis. says:
Whether the stars, millions of miles
sway, send to the earth's surface any

question which has long puzzled
astronomers, has been finally solved.
The heat from these far-off bodies has
NOT only been detected but measured.
1t has been measured By ono Of the
most delicate and sensitive astrono-
mical instruments ever made, Ill
Instrument capable of measuring the
heat of II candle mile away.
The credit for solving the problem
and for constructing this delicate
instrument belongs to Professor f.. +.
Nichols, OF Dartmouth college. The
experiments were, however, performt d
at the Yerkes observatory of the
u"iversity Of Chicago, where Profes sor
Nichols spent two of his summer
vacations. The results obtained from
these experiments have Just been
carefully reviewed and computed and
sent to Prof sor George +. Hale, di-
rector of the observatory.
Professor Nichols experiments at
the Yerkes observatory have for the
first time proved beyond doubt that
the planets and some OF the fixed stars
send an appreciable quantity Of heat
o the earth. The quantity, however,
