pension bills. bln every entrant has
the right to name his own passengers,

pounds per man. but their number Is

1t would be wise in selecting Passen-
gers to pick out individuals who are
handy with the pliers or can lend a
helping shoulder in case there is any
showing to be done, or repairs to be
made.
Wear Warm Clothing.
Here's a little point: Should you be
caught among the hills at night, It IS
likely 10 prove too cool for comfort. and
it would be a good idea for all hands
to wear something heavier than the light
summer suits which are now so popular
in Washington. Hitting up a fast clip

BEARING FRUIT.

The somewhat surprising state
ment is made in the press dispatches
that poll of the house of commons
shows that more than Wo-thirds of
the members of that body have agreed
TO vote for the equal suffrage bill in
case the bill is brought to a vote. 1t
also appears, however that strong eff
forts are being made to keep the bill
in committee, in order that these
members may not be forced to redeem
the pledges they APPARENTLY gave with
much reluctance.
1t would appear therefore that the
strenuous agitation which has been
carried on in England by the suffrag-
cites is beginning to bear fruit. and
While they may not be able TO carry
their point at this session of parlia-
ment il is clear that it is but a few
years until the English woman enjoys
the same political rights as does her
brother or husband.
Women have always been influen-
tial in English politics, much more
so than they have i'll this country. and
more than one woman has left her
mark on the legislation of the British
empire. Being in touch with practi-
cal politics, the English woman has
not as long a road to travel to reach
the goal of political equality as has
her American sister, but there is no
denying the fact that the attainment

defeated at the recent elections.

here now as any other time, that not
Mr.. Bryan, bat the democratic party
was defeated on the third of this

The nomination Of Mr.. Bryan may
have been a mistake-which is not at
all apparent just yet-but If 1t was
mistake, it was not Mr. Bryan's mis-
take. 1t was the mistake of the party
Anyone who watched the county and
state and nationl conventions of the
democrtic party last summer. must
be convinced that the democratic par
ty wanted Mr.. Bryan as its standard

which cost the brother of the preSl-
dent-elect a cool million dollars and
which was brought about through the
aid of the entire federal brigade, the
nomination cost Mr.. Bryan not a

had no patronage. But in every coun-

fitted to lead the hosts of democracy.
The recent election was not a per-

can conceive such an incongruity-

Devil a play that has created
genuine sensation in New York city

seen. will be presented in this city on
December l. The play has been aptly
described as a sermon drama ana ac-
cording to the press OF otheT CUES
this is undoubtedly the truth IL Is
the production of a famous Hunga-
rian author. Franz Molnar, and its
original performance in New York city
wac the occasion of one Of the great
est theatrical fights that that city OF
excitement and sensation mas known
in recent years. TWO Well-kIo"ii
managers presented the play in one
week, but Henry w. Savage. whose
splendid production was made known
at the Garden theater, soon proved MS
priority of right and demonstrated ms
claims by paying a royalty TO the
Hungarian aathOr. unfortunately
however, there was no copyWrlght on
| the play in America and there was no
way of preventing it's production by
unauthorized parties. The only thlnS
that could be done was to make the
Savage production so superior to all
others that competition or any real RI
