Among the interesting facts mentioned
in this paper were the following:
The first battle on the sea in defence
OF the English flag by an English colony
was fought by the Sons of Rhode Island.
The first vessels OF the British navy de-
stroyed by an English colony, namely, the

The first Colonial act TO establish a
navy was taken by our general assembly
at Providence. in August. IT'S
The first bin laid before congress to
create that navy was presented by a
Rhode Islander, in November. 1775.
The first admiral OF that navy was Esek
Hopkins, a native of Rhode Island.
The first and second vessels OF that
navy were built, launched and manned
by the sailors of this colony, and first
noated in our waters.
The first naval expedition OF the United
Colonies against a foreign port was led

Remarks were made In praise of the
paper by the presiding officer. the secre-
tary and by the Rev. Daniel Goodwin.
The secretary included in his remarks
an extract from a speech OF Senator Hoar
as follows:
Our Independence in the Revolution
was won on the sea. What compelled
Lord North and the unwilling monarch
20 make peace was the rate OF insurance
on English commerce. 1t was not the
French alliance 1t was not the French
troops under Rochambeau. 1t was the
New England sailors and other maritime
states who won our independence. The
rates of Insurance in the Mediterranean
on Brltlsh ships, before the French ALI
ance, went up TO 2S per cent because OF
the work OF Paul Jones, Abram whpple
and men like them. and hundreds OF
naval commanders as privateers or in our
little navy who had inspired such terror
at sea by their valor that British com
merce could not live any longer"
The secretary. Francis Gallagher, also

Resembling Mrs. HazsIrlg.
RECEIVED "M0USELL" LETTERS.
Prisoner Makes a BIundsr and Then Con-
fssses Her Identity, Thus Generating
the Woman First Charged.

Marietta. Jan. s-Developments in the
Irene Mousell case came to a focus here
yesterday when woman No. was arrest
ed by the city detectives.
Ever since the declaration OF Mrs. Hs-
xelrig that she had a double for whom she
had often been mistaken, the police have
been searching for the double. She was
located ia a hotel on the west side, and
was kept under surveillance until yester-
day morning, when she was arrested by
Chief Dye and taken before Postmaster
Rose.
When informed that letters were In the
Irene Mousell box addressed TO her the
woman unthinkingiy worked the combi-
nation on the box and took the letters.
Seeing that she was caught. she gave up
and signed for registered mail under the
name OF Irene Mousell.
The prisoner confessed that she had
operated In Belpre. Ohio, under the name
OF Laura Miller, but denied that she ever
received mail I'm Parkersburg, w. va,
where 1t Is alleged the same scheme has
been worked.
She is Mrs. Frank Stackhouse. having
been married 10 Mr. Stackhouse. OF this
city, on November z last. Her maiden
name was Laura Raynor. and she says
her home Is on Long Island. N y.
where, she declares, she has a brother
living. II is alleged that she came TO this
city several months ago with man
named Miller.
Postoffice Inspector Oldneld Of Cincin-
natl. arrived here and has made an anil

ing the mails for fraudulent purposes
Mrs. Stackhouse Is in the county jail, and
her hearing Will probably occur on Fri
day.
The confession OF Mrs stackhouse is re-
garded as completely exonerating Mrs.
ID. o. Hazelrig, OF Williamstown, who
had been accused. The resemblance OF
the two women Is striking. and unless
seen together Mrs. Hazelrig could easily
be mistaken for Mrs Stackhouse.
Frank Stackhouse was arrested on the
charge OF completely with his wife I'm the

Do Women Want to VOte2
Communicated.

The first valid objection offered
by those opposing woman suffrage
Is that the majority of women do
not want ii, therefore it is useless.
They already have virtual repre-.
sentation in thor fathers or hus.
bands or brothers. and do not need
a vote. In SO far as this objection
need be discussed it applies with
equal force to men, and has been
met already by persons whose
names stand for progress, sincerity
wisdom. Secretary Long says:
"Somebody says few women would
vote if enfraEchised. Well, it Of
ten happens in an election that
more than half the men refuse to
vote. But if one man or woman
wants TO exercise the right to vote.
what earthly reason is there for
denying it because other men and
women do not want to exercise its
If desire to breathe the fresh AIR
Of heaven, shall | not cross my
threshold because the rest of the
family group prefer the stale at.
nosphere indoors2" And Mr..
George William Curtis says: "The
assertion that when majority of
women ask for equal political rights
they will be granted is confession
that there ls no conclusive reason
against their sharing them. And
if that Is so, how can their adm,s-
sion rightfully depend upon the
majority2 Why should the wo-
man who does not care to vote pre-
vent the voting of her neighbor
who doesp" And the venerable
statesman, Senator Hoar: "Ihe
committee concede that woman
ought to be clothed with the sui
frage in any state where any con
siderable part of the women desire
1t. THIS Is q pretty serious con
fesslon. What has become of the
argument that women are unit to
vOte?"
A remonstrant says; elf women
are to assume the duty of suffrage,
they must either add 1t to their
! other duties or lay aside other du-
ties to take up this new duty.
Would either alternative be just to
themselves and TO the community
at larger 1t is tor us to decide. !"
Now, If woman thinks the right q
burden. she is not compelled TO ex-
ercise 1t. And nobody will dispute
her right to judge for herself as to
the Justice or injustice of ii, pro
vided she allows the same freedom
to others.
