leans, who naturally prefer to leave
their public questions in the hands of
men better fitted by training to cope
with them: that the average American
is entirely satisfied with the delegate
convention system, and that those
States which have adopted compulsory
direct primary election systems will
soon find them in popular disfavor.
The arguments of the professional
politicians contain some elements of
plausibility until they are measured
against the indisputable facts of ex-
perience. If the soundness of the di-
rect primary idea and its permanent
popular favor need any proof, Craw-
ford County, Pa, furnished ample con-
fusion for the natural enemies of clean
politics. Forty-six years ago the Re-
publicans of Crawford County abol-
ished the delegate convention system
as undemocratic. deeming it an institu-
tion which misrepresented rather than
represented the people and too fire.

4 progressive clubs in the city IS
the South Park Settlement Moth
ers' Club. of which it is said
that it was the one club in the city OF
which every member was burned OUT
and was yet one of the first to meet
after the fire. After varied expert
ences OF schoolhouse, tent and base
ment for meeting places. the club Is
again under its own roof in the new
settlement building. 720 Treat avenue.
The first meeting held there was on
October 9. and after the regular bust
ness was over an informal and lively
discussion ensued upon the question.
What can each woman do to help
make conditions in our city today
easier and better?" 1t was finally re-
solved by the women of the club not
to stand on the platforms of the street
ears, but to go inside If possible; not
to use the cars, unless absolutely nee
essary, between the hours of and
o'clock. when tired men have the right
to the seats; to throw nothing. not even
an unused transfer, into the street; to
keep the sidewalks swept in front OF
their houses; to be as careful of picnic
grounds as of ones own home. The
club numbers forty eight members and
meets weekly under the strong leader

CURIOUS USES FOR FANS
Used by umpires at Fencing and
Wrestling Matches.

Various are the uses for fans in ia
pan. Properly manipulated, they many
times take the place of speech. The
umpire at wrestling and fencing
matches uses heavy fan shaped like
huge butterfly, the handle being the
body and rendered imposing by heavy
cords of silk. The various motions
of the fan constitute language
which the wrestlers fully understand
and appreciate. Formerly in time
of war the Japanese commander used
a large fan, having a frame OF iron
covered with thick paper. In case OF
danger it would be shut, and blow
from its iron bones was no light af-
fair. One notable variety of fan is
made of waterproof paper, which can
be dipped in water and creates great
coolness by evaporation without wet
ting the clothes. The fiat fan made
of rough paper is often used as a
grain winnow, to blow the charcoal
fires and as dustpan. The Japanese
gentleman of the old school who new
er wears a hat uses his fan to shield
his eyes from the sun. His head,
bare from childhood, hardly needs
shade, and when it does he spreads
an umbrella, and with his fan he di-
rects his servants and saves talking.

CAUGHT IN THE ACT
ARRESTED WHILE ATTEMPTING
TO ENTER OSNABURG
PoSToFFicE

Jesse Ritz was arrested in Osnaburg
yesterday about noon while attempt
ing to enter the postoffice of that
place. The act was discovered by a
son of Postmaster Liebtag. Ritz was
taken, before Justice of the Peace Al
bert Smith OF Qs1aburg where be con-
f'>std to having entered the pOst0llice
on February Il. and taking SIG. AS
there is no place there to keep him
securely over night, a warrant was
sworn out by C. J. Liebtag. the Osna-
burg postmaster, and Ritz was
brought to Canton and confined in the
city Jail. Ritz's case win probably
be brought before the federal authori-
ties today.
