lie then goes into a discussion of the
law which provides that Il woman may
vote at any election pertaining 10 school
matters and says the difficulty is with
reference to the meaning of the words,
that the word election" does not apply

that the Legislature had in mind when
they used the word election" only the

used in THE way for twenty years and
never before attempted to be used IN this

ing that she had served God for twenty
years and now intended to serve another
master Ella McCarty a novice at the
ST. Francis Catholic convent. west of
Manitowoc, slashed five of her compan-
ions about the face before she was sub
duCi. She is insane. one of the novices
had her nose nearly severed from her
face and may die from the injury There
is much danger that the other victims
may get misunderstanding because the knife
used was old. broken and rusty. Miss
McCarty is 81 years old, and had been
Mt the convent since September, coming
here from Quincy, H., and seeking to
become a nun. The attack followed
conversation in which it was suggested
that she leave the convent the belief
being expressed that she did not have
the vocation. She became SO violent that
it was necessary TO tie her to a cot with
StrapS.
