''Phoebe w. Couzins, the first wo-
man United States marshal this coun-
try ever had, for many years one of
the most ardent advocates of equal
rights for women, and prominent
figure at every woman's rights con-
vention in the early days of the
movement, declared last night that
suffrage for her sex has been fail

the country is not ready for women 3
votes, and will not be for some time

Miss Couzins declared that the
suffragists were on the wrong track.
I'm demanding prohibition for the
district of Columbia, Miss Couzins
said the women again were wrong.
She said prohibition does not neces-
sarily prohibit, and that it would be
absurd to establish such "a law for the
District of Columbia, where foreign
diplomats, who are use to their beer

in which are fixed the feed box with lock and firing mechanism and handle block. A powerful recoil spring is af- fixed to the left side of the casing.
 To prepare the gun for firing, after the water jacket is filled, belt of 25o cartridges is inserted in the feed box and the handle of the lock is twice thrown forward and allowed to spring back. The first move forward with draws a cartridge from the belt and places 1t in a carrier, the second move inserts the first cartridge into the chamber of the rife and withdraws another from the belt in the same manner as the first. The gun is now in readiness. By pressing the trigger bar spring is released which allows the plunger to strike a cartridge in the chamber of the rife barrel. The firing of this cartridge creates recoil which is taken up by the powerful spring above referred to and thus con verted into a force or power by which different parts of the mechanism are operated. This is repeated as often as a cartridge Is fired. One contriv- ance elects the empty shell from the chamber, one inserts new cartridge,

turned into corpses! Press and hold l the trigger which fires the gun for ten minutes, and 1000 cartridges will have been exploded, an average of Il shots per second. Consider the fact that this death-dealing instrument can be carried and operated by two men and imagine what powerful fighting machine Uncle Sams small army would become were every com pany equipped with devils spout"
 In appearance it is like toy and not in the least impressive. In fact, it seems quite harmless-especially when packed upon the back of a mule. For this reason the outfit in charge of two of these guns is often dubbed "The Jackass Battery"
 A brief description of the gun is in. teresting It is mounted on detach- able tripod, weighing, with the latter, about 150 pounds. Gun and tripod being of very nearly equal weight, they can, when separated, be carried with ease by two men. When mount ed and in position the gun itself is about three feet above the ground. and on account of it's size cannot be seen very easily at distances beyond 600 yards. The tripod is provided with traversing and elevating mechan- ism by which the gun is moved to the right or left, up or down, without in the least disturbing its stability. Viewed from in front the gun has the appearance of a solid stovepipe. This is heavy steel tubing known as the water jacket through which the rife barrel passes. Before a shot is fired this jacket must be filled with water for the purpose of keeping the gun from burning out or melting. An ordinary rife barrel fired through, say about ten times, in rapid success sion, will become so heated as to be- come unbearable. It is obvious what would happen to rife barrel fired with such rapidity as the Maxim is capable of As it is. after about 600 or 700 rounds are fired the supply of water has to be replenished, for by then most of the original water will have become converted into steam, which escapes through vent in the tubing.
 Behind the water jacket is a casing
