done. Why, there was nothing too
good for us. And when election time
came we were given such freedom at
the polls-after the polls had been
thoroughly disnfected-as never be-
fore had marked elections in Colorado.
II think we elected a state superin-
tendent of public schools. but the rest
of our ticket was showed under. That
election taught me that women should
confine their voting to local affairs, of
which they know something and in
which they should have a governing
hand. But when it comes to state and
national politics, they should allow
the men full scope and not NEEDLE

that the women who had homes and
children did not neglect them for pol

were falling, reminding one that the
children soon would be home from

DISREGARD PLEA
OF PROTESTANTS
FIRE COMMISSIONERS GRANT
PERMITS
Lumber Yard May Now Install Motor
and curio Shop Continue to
Run Small Gasoline
Engine

IF the fire commission did not brave
the wrath of protestants and grant
privileges against the wishes of prop
erty owners In the neighborhood where
the privileges are asked, manufactures
and business of many kinds would be
at a Standstill and the city, as conse-
quence, would not only halt in its
growth but would positively retro
grade" said Martin Betouski, a mem
ber of the fire commission yesterday.
There are always protestants to every
demand and If we needed all these OBJ
structionists we would do nothing but
refuse to grant permits at every ses-
Sion."
With this introductory speech, he
moved that F. Lounsberry be allowed to
install motor in his lumber yard on
Central avenue, near Twenty-ninth
street and that e. II. Ellis be granted
a permit to operate gasoline engine
in his back yard, CIT East Thirtieth
street. 1t was so ordered by the mayor,
and thus closed a fight that these two
have been wagng before the fire COM
mission with property owners in the
vicinity for nearly month.
Claiming that he had verbal pernis-
sion from former Fire Chief Strohm to
operate his gasoline engine, Ellis has
been conducting a little curio shop in
his own dooryard for more than year.
A few weeks ago Lounsberry made ap-
plicatlon to the commission to install
a motor and the residents of the vicin-
ity appeared before the board to pro-
test against Ellis gasoline engine.
About fifty protestants have been heard
by the commission since the beginning
of the affair. but after personal in
vestigation made last Wednesday the
members came to the conclusion that
there was little ground for the objec-

TEACHES LESSON
OF FORTITUDE
CRIPPLED CHILD CASTS RAY
OF SUNSHINE
Hospital Fsvorite May Not See An-
other Christmas but Cheerfully
Looks Forward to Visit
OF Santa Claus

Perhaps there is not a child in Los
Angeles who is looking forward to
the visit of Santa Claus with more
happy expectation than little black
eyed Marie, pretty Spanish girl over
whose head barely eight years have
passed. but who in her short life has
suffered the agonies of a life Of severe
Illness. Despite her sufferings, which
would cast gloom over any older per-
son, little Marie Is one of the happiest
of children and casts ray of sunshine
wherever she goes on her little wheel
chair through the Sisters hospital,
where she is receiving care.
The little one Is suffering from
tubercular affection, which has necessi-
tated the amputation Of one leg just
below the knee, the right eve has been
removed and but last week her right
hand was taken off in the efforts of
the physicians and devoted sisters to
stay the ravaging disease.
In all likelihood little Marie will not
live to see another Christmas day, as
the disease seems to be going to a vital
point, in which case no medical skill
could prolong her life.
Little Marie's life has been shadowed
by the unkindness of the world from
The beginning, added to which disease
would seem to have taken out all hap
pness, but in the children's ward she
is as happy as though well and strong
and in the care of her parents.
Expects Visit of Santa Claus
She finds great consolation in her re-
ligious devotions shortly before the
amputation of her hand having made
an eight days prayer to the Blessed
Virgin. whose name she bears, to inter-
cede for her recovery.
Deserted by her parents. the little
tot was taken in by the good Sisters of
Charity and cared for at the Orphans
home until her sickness necessitated
her removul to the hospital, where she
has been over q year. The good mother
superior of the hospital has taken a
special interest in the little girl and
does all in her power to make her life
bearable. The sisters, doctors and
nurses of the hospital have followed
the mother superior's example and lit
tie Marie, deserted by parents rela-
tives and former friends, finds herself
petted and loved by all the hospital.
Marie spends the long days playing
with her doll and the convalescents in
the children's ward. When she sees
the children going to and from school
and enjoying all the pleasures she
bravely stiles all longings to join them
and places her confidence in a child
like faith that knows no impossibilities
in the good offices of the Virgin Mother.
to whom she constantly prays for her
recovery.
Little Marie finds great pleasure in
the mysterious visit of Santa Claus and
the good sisters will see that she is not
disappointed.

FRAUDS OF FUR TRADERS.

Americans Love to be Fooled.

As a people We are very fond of

regularly fooled and defrauded than
in the retail fur trade. The ermine
which my lady buys for the collar Of
her opera coat cost her some dollars
skin. She may pay 81 for the black
tip OF the tail of a single ermine skin.
The trapper who caught the weasel
from which came the crmine got, Per.

five; perhaps nothing.
"A great many persons know that or.

muskrat pulled and dyed is often sold
as seal; that nutria similarly treated
Is sold as seal or beaver; that rabbit
so treated is sold as seal or electric
seal, that pulled and dyed otter Is
regularly sold as seal; that marmot
dyed is sold as mink and sable: that
fitch dyed is sold as sable. and rabbi
also sold as sable; that hare and
muskrat are sold as mink or sable.
and white rabbit as crmire or chin.

that monkey and lynx and dog and

and all sorts of different flirs are sold

CRiNoLiNE IN THE PULPIT.
English Rector Once Preached a Ser.

Aprupos of the crinoline scare. I
must relate a quaint story told me by
a gentleman old enough to remember
the age of steel and who was init.
mately acquainted with the country
parson who preached the sermon he
quoted from.
His church was very small one,
and his congregation large and
fashionable one The rector was
neither narrow.mindcd nor behind
the times, and his taste vas catholic
enough TO embrace even the crinolnc
OF the early Cos. Eia did not find fault
with their appearance, only with the
undue space they usurped.
On one memorable Sunday morning
he electrified his congregation by dis.
Coursing on the subject He dealt ten.

began by making a singuarly uLrrac.
teal suggestion, with all the icror.

mind, 10 the effect thas they might
wear these appendices during The

Then. when the nutter his audacious
suggestion had begun TO subside, he
declared himself no enemy to. but
eminently the friend OF fashion;
changes of style in dress, he init
mated, were pleasing to the eye. and
excellent for trade, they encouraged
ingenuity in work and gave lessons in
taste.
II have no intention of disparaging
your crlnolines. my friends he said
