Wien the story of Chinese atrocities
filed the papers and shocked the world,
it was the women who drew the pity and
sympathy of all. Doubtless many wife
who heard her husbands words of SYM
pathy for these women thought with a
pang of the blindness of men to the suf-
fering under their very eyes. 1t is true.
The suffering of women in China was
severe but short. Many a wife suffers
for years with daily agony of pain, her
nerves shattered, her strength almost
gone, and never hears a word of SYM
pathy.
To women such as these DR.. Pierce's

tunity of new life of health and happi-

THEY OBJECT
To Chasing Women With "Minors
Lunatics and Criminals"

The 18th annual convention of the
Ohio Woman Suffrage association will
be held in Cleveland, October and
g. The meetings will be held in the
Methodist church, corner Euclid ave-,
and Erie st. 1t is expected that all
organized suffrage societies of the state

no society will be allowed delegates
through courtesy.
Among the prominent speakers will
be: Rev. Olympia Brown, of Wiscon-
sin; Rev. Anna Howard Shaw, of Penn
sylvania, and Mrs. Carrie Chapman
Catt, of New York.
The call to the convention says:
"Ohio, great, progressive common
wealth, still allows father. to appoint,
by will, a guardian for child unborn,
and still holds it's intelligent women,
politically, in the same class as minors
lunatics. and criminals" and 1t is to
help to bring about n reformation
along these lines that the convention
will be held.

Columbus, o., Aug. 30.-The Special
Code committee of the House wns to
have met at o'clock Friday morning,
but when that hour arrived there was
such small handful of members
present that the chairman declined to
call the committee to order. 1t was
nearly 1870 when the committee did
get to work. One of the most i'm
portant things done was to revise
the program which had been prepared
by a subcommittee several days ago

ranged for hearings on Sunday. The

NEW STYLES.
Hundreds of Pretty Things For the
AdOrnment of Women.

The first OF the new fall waistings
and suitings were displayed in Akron
stores, this week, and never was there
a more splendid array of pretty things
for the adornment of womankind.
The newest things in waist fabrics
are the Persian and tucked effects,
basket weaves silk and wool mater
dals, Wolfe, Etamine, wool bntlste,
Henrietta, w. II. Reads Lonsdowne,
(Which, by the way, Is the only genu-
1ne Lonsdowne) Eoline cloth, crepe de
chene, crepe de Paris, mohair, Egyp-
aian crepes. and a myriad OF other
things quite as pretty.
The colors run all the way from the
pastel shades to the darker colors.
Black and white still hold first place
in the, hearts of the fashionable wo-
man. while greens promise to be almost
as popular as they were during the
early summer. Roseda green, which
yerges onto the old time sage green,
Is one Of the very popular shades,
while hunters green, n trifle darker
and OF different cast, follows close
second. The old time emerald green
is also shown in great variety of pat
Germs. A beautiful waist pattern In
Roseda green has stripes OF white and
rose.
The reigning color for win
ter shirt wrists will be
white, and there will be few
party dresses In which white is not the
predominating color. For shirt waists
white Egyptian crepe, mohalr, and al
batross will be the popular materials,
while Henrietta cloth still retains all
its usual prestige. This pretty. soft
material though lacking the charm OF

Hasten to Hanna's S
Rescue
To Explain Away "Per-
petual Franchises"

Especial Corespondence.)


Columbus, O., Aug. 30,-The session
of the Legislature Friday was very
short Nothing was accomplished i'll
the lower House but all the time avail
able was devoted to a discussion OF
the Nash code in the Senate The
Senate convened as committee of the
whole and Mr.. Smith w. Bennett,
one of the attorneys who framed this
code, appeared before the committee
to explain the various provisions of the
code and to answer and more fully
explain any points which the Senators
desired to inquire into.
The Senators went after Mr.. Bennett
much as they did after Mr.. Ellis sever
al days ago in both the Senate commit
tee and the House special committee.
There were very few constitutional
questions asked and none of the tques-
tlons revealed the real position of the
questioner. tN
The sensation created by Senator
Hannas bold assertion for perpetual
franchises has died out, every one Of
his fractional friends here having
hastened forth with explanations which
served to bring about n reaction. Gov
ernor Nash, however, is still insisting
upon short term franchises.
1t Is admitted generally that the
addresses of NIessrs. Hogsett and
Garfield, of Cleveland, on federal
| plan of government and civil service
have had more pronounced effect
than any others yet delivered. It be-
/ ginsl to appear also that neither of the
codes SO Efar presented, will ever get
through the committees but that each
will be chopped to pieces to form a
| part of something new, but, the men,
bers insist, nothing novel"
Some one, either for q joke, or
through ignorance, started rumor. Fri
day that the passage of tile Nash code
would repeal the Beal local option law.
This little bomb had a serious effect in
| the camp of the Anti-Saloon league
and efforts were at once put forth to
| investigate. The officers of the league
have favored the Nash code in pref
erence to the other thus far presented
and after their investigation of the
probable effect of the code on the Beal
bill, they announced that they had not
changed their position. 1t is the gem
eral belief that the code would have
no effect whatever upon the local opticn
law. ~
Representative Price, of Athens
county, was not in his seat Friday.
This fact coupled with rumor that he
is preparing code on his own ac-
count has given rise to political ru'
mors. 1t is known that Mr.. Price was
in consultation with Senator Foraker
not long since and it is known that on
general principles, Mr.. Price is against
anything which the Governor would
favor. There are now fears that an
understanding has been reachedwhere'
by the Nash code Is to be held up in the
Senate, and certain concessions com
PEELED.
