Members of Burlington Team-OeI'ver
Uitimatum-No Pay, No Game.

Burlington, VT, July 10 Owing to
the failure of the burlington baseball
team 10 appear on the field Tuesday
the game with Barre Montpelier was
forfeited to the latter by the score of
9 to q.
The local players refused to go on
the field unless a partial payment was
made on the large salary arrears.
The Plattsburg management has not
turned over Ia the Burlington team its
share OF the Fourth of July gate re-
ceipts at that place, and an effort was
made to obtain that money by tele-
graph, but to no avail.
The Burlington players claim that
they have not been paid their salaries
in full since the organization of the
New Hampshire League in the middle
of April, only lneager sums being hand
ed out to them from time to time.
For the past week or ~ days they
have realized scarcely anything, and
Tuesday afternoon one of the players
said he had eaten nothing that day but
two buns. and that his room mate had
eaten nothing at all, because of lack
of money.
Unless another team is organized or
brought here this marks the end Of
the newly organized Vermont League.
The Barre Montpelier team is under
stood to have been paid up in full, and
the Plattsburg Association is on bet
ter financial basis than Burlington.
while Rutland has only just entered
the race. The attendance has been fair
in these three cities but most of the
local games have been played to prac-
tically empty seats

Equal Suffrage Remedy
for Child Labor

Mrs. Rachel Foster Avery was given a
rousing welcome yesterday afternoon at
the reception in her honor at the Wo-
mans clubhouse, $40 South Figueroa
street, under the auspices of the Los An
gees Political Equality league.
Mrs. Avery gave an interesting talk on
woman Suffrage, a World Question"
She described the condition of women in
various countries and told of the several
national and international suffrage meet
ings that have been held since the begin
ming of the movement. She said
America Is far behind other countries
in the condition of their women, and
probably it will be some time before it
catches up. We lost our best chance for
years ago, for it is a we'll known fact that
if the women do not gain liberty with the
men, they will lose several centuries.
1--WE must have the suffrage, so that we
can mother the race. Out here in this
new country you are allowing abuses,
such as child labor, to grow, that could
be abolished if the women who have the
time to look after such things, could
vote"
The officers of the Il. A. Political Equal
ity club, who include Mrs. Julia d.
Phelps president; Mrs L. A. Robinson,
recording secretary; Mrs. o. q. Parrish,
corresponding secretary. and Mrs. 9. a.
Moody, treasurer, received with Mrs. Av-
cry, and assisting them were Madame
Caroline M. Severance, Mrs. Charlotte

thief was guilty of all three robberies.

Monday night. The family had just re-
tired when the burglary occurred. Hear
ing sounds in the dining room Mr. Nc
Cart arose to find that he was short
