| LONDON. Nov. 22.-With the resump-
tion of the political campaign which is
now in full swing, ''the shrieking sister
hood" as the woman suffragists have
come to be commonly known, are actively
pursuing their threatened plan of upset
ting all Liberal meetings.
Gatherings at which members of the
cabinet are to speak are especially select
ed by them. The victims last week were
Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman the pre-
mier, and Herbert H. Asquith, cl1ancel-
Ior of the exchequer. Both had difficulty
in getting hearing, their meetings be-
ing attended by serious disorders.
LEEDS, England. Nov. 22-The Woman
Suftragists today virtually compelled Her
bert Gladstone, secretary of state for
home affairs, to abandon his attempt to
address a meeting here. The Interruptions
from the suffragists became so persistent
that Mr.. Gladstone declared he would no
longer struggle against such tactics and
brought his speech to a sudden close. A
free fight broke out between the men and
women of the audience.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 22-Several
persons were injured, two probably fatal

1t was frisky critter, as all colts are,
but father was very proud of it and de-
lighted in showing it to visitors. AS Il
rule, when he wanted to exhibit the
colt 1t was in the pasture, and one of
the most vivid recol!ecti0ns of my boy
hood days is that dignified old gentle
man chasing that dern fool colt over a
ten acre field. He would trot along and
appeal to the colt in tones of strained
honey. He would pretend to offer a
regular cornucopia of things that
horses are supposed to sigh for. The
colt would coyly wait until he was al
most within reach; then, with a sniff of
disdain, 1t would raise its tail straight
up In the air and gallop to the other
side Of the pasture. Finally the little
beast would allow Itself to be caught.
just like woman, and once he had
his hands on him the old gentleman
would let loose food Of unprofane
cuss words that would shuck the corn
In the barn. "Contaminate your meas
ly hide" he would shout, II feel like
breaking every bone in your onregen-
crate carcass But he mover did. My
parent was humane man, and, be-
sides, the colt was valuable.
Before and After.
That's Just the way with q great
many men after they marry. They will
pursue woman with sorghum elo-
quence, write sonnets on the classic
outlines Of her snub nose, crawl on
their knees before her like the devotees
Of heather goddess and after they
get her treat her like convict or lose
interest in her and let her get along
the best way she can. And some Of
these fellows really love their wives
too. They simply think that the pretty
words and gentle courtesies Of court
ship are features Of the chase and are
superfuous and foolish after the cap
ture. They seem to forget that getting
wife Is one thing and keeping her is
another, as the records of the divorce
courts show but the same processes
are effective in both.
But. you say, man can't always be
on his best behavior; he can't always
sit around his own house in full dress;
he can't make daily use of the stilted
ceremonies Of polite society In his
home life. There you are wrong and

one detests meaningless ceremony
more than l do. But the courtesies
that spring from the heart, that are
the outward manifestations Of Il desire
