AT SUFFRAGE BAZAAR
Mrs. Mackay and Mrs. Lyd'g
Potr0nize Booths Literally.

The largest purchasers at the Woman Suffrage
Bazaar which was opened yesterday at the Hotel
Martha Washington. were Mrs Clarence Mackay
and Mrs Philip Lydig Mrs Mackay and Mrs
I,ydis spent more than hour going the rounds
booths and collecting jams and 3e1iies ana
various other articles illustrative Of the domestic
accomplishments of the suffra gists. Mrs Mackay
acquired laundry bag at the start, and bestowed
her purchases in its capacous depths. Both women
were plainly dressed in black cloth gowns and
Mrs. Lydg's in the extreme Directors style
The skirt long and clinging and scanty- The
coat was long and close fitting. while small hat
the extinguisher type came well down over the
wearer's
Mrs I.ydig IN addition to her other purchases,
took thirty tickets for the meeting to be held
at Carnegie Hall December g. when Mrs Philip
snowden. the British sufragette. will be the chief
attraction, and the Rev. DR.. Aked will also be a
speaker. Mrs. Mackay has already taken twelve
boxes
The bazaar workers hoped that Mrs. Russell Sage
would visit them during the afternoon, she had
written Mrs Carrie Chapman Gait that she
would if she able. but they were doomed
TO disappointment for she did not appear.
The bazaar. which will continue to-day, is the
most domestic function of the kind that has ever
been In modern New York. The suffragists
seem anxious 70 disabuse the public mind of any
fears to the effect OF votes for upon
domestic arrangements, so they have furnished
their booths with the products of their kitchens
and their sewing rooms and brought together every
sort Of invention that could facilitate the operation
of househld machinery. A cleaner ate up dirt
which had been previously ground into red carpet
in the most astonishing manner. A patent wash
tub operated without the Intervention of human
hands. sanitary garbage receptacle solved one
of the most troublesome and unpleasant problems
of the kitchen Lace curtains were exhibited which
could be cleansed it said by turning the hose
them. No more stretching pinning on
frames. for they have been heated with something
which prevents them from ever getting slimpsy
even under the influence Of water.
Although the affair is under orthodox suffragist
auspices. Mrs. Sofia Loebnger and other suffra-
gettes were among the most active workers For
this occasion at least the lion and the lamb have
lain down together.
