TIE IVY AND THE OAK.
An Unexpected Test OF WOman's Professed
Independence OF Man.

| LINCOLN, Neb., Dec. i3-The closing
exercises of the Nebraska Woman Suffrage
| Associations annual convention at Tecum-
| sch this week were marred by an accident
| that still sets the men folks TO chuckling
when they think of II.
Mrs. May Adelia Lane Of Columbus was
| down on the programme for a paper upon
| the Independence of woman so far as men
| are concerned. She declared that women
| had been too long a. the ivy twining about
the sturdy OAK and appealed TO women
generally to untwne themselves In stir
| ring phrases she spoke Of what women
had accomplished without man, and when
she finished and sat down it was TO receive
very hearty applause from the women of
her audience.
Immediately following the speech the
hail was darkened while some moving
photographs we're exhibited TO show the
progress OF woman suffrage in the West.
Two OF these scenes we're before and
after woman suffrage in Wyoming.
The after picture, shown first, repre-.
sented phalanx of serious women march-
ing up to the polls. The other was a pic
ture of drunken cowboy riding up to
deposit his ballot and incidentally using
the ballot box as a target.
To give touch of realism to the scene
the Coroner of Tecumseh discharged a
pistol behind the curtain. By some accident
the Light of the lantern was extinguished
at the same moment, leaving the hall in
darkness.
When the lights were switched on a
minute later every other woman in the
audience was discovered with her arms
around her husbands neck. or IL hus-
bandless, she clung to the nearest man.
The president on the platform, with no
male arm TO grasp, was posed on her chair,
gavel extended, in the attitude of one about
10 repel the attack Of a mouse. Mrs MAY
Adelia Lane had discovered a place under
her husbands left ear that exactly fitted her
head and stood as a fitting tableau of the
strong oak and tho clinging ivy, a subject
that was incontinently dropped thereafter.
