Steadily throughout the year Miss
Malone and her Harlem EQUAL Rights
League. OF which she has been president
for several years, have continued their
street meetings. Last winter she held
them in Madison Square. All summer
they were held on the lower East Side,
Z 10 Grand, Clinton. Rutgers. Jefferson and
the neighboring streets. All this fall
she has held them in Harlem at or near
the corner OF i25tb street and Seventh
Avenue
These meetings have been held on four
or i've nights a week, and sometimes two
meetings have been held in an evening,
Miss Malone has spoken at every one Of
them. Thus she has sampled the Man
haitian street audience pretty we'll and
has come into contact with the raw anti
sufragism Of the man in the street.
"A man who goes I, a suffragist meet

woman who is a suffragist. 1t is in the
street meetings that you get the opin-

Body Of Little Julia
Cook Found in River
Months After Death

The body Of little Julia Cook was
found In the Animas river near La
Posta yesterday evening. being dis
covered by Rocas Trujillo as II was
washed along the bank by the torrent
of water.
Trujillo came to town and notified
the authorities and J. +. English and
William Rudersdorf drove down, leav-
Ing town about o'clock. The body
was identified by a shoe and stocking
on one foot. this being the only par
ticle OF clothing left.
The body was brought to town and
prepared for burial by Mr.. Goodman.
The body was horribly mutilated, the
hair and flesh being all gone from
the head and nearly all the fiesh from
the body.
The sad event is still fresh In the
minds OF the people how last Septem-
ber the three little children of Mr..
and Mrs. Sam Cook were going from
their home In Horse Gulch In school
and we're overtaken by a severe rain.
They took refuge from the rain un-
der a bridge and a sudden torrent OF
water came rushing down and car
ried them away before they had time
to make their escape. The body OF
one was found near the bridge soon
after and another was found down

all worn away.

Taft, Montana.

EIlssoula, Mont.-The entire town
Of Taft, with the exception OF the
postofce, one grocery store and a
saloon, was destroyed by fire Thurs
day morning.
The warehouses Of the construc'
ton companies which are located on
the opposite side of the railroad
tracks escaped. The loss is estimat
ed at between 100000 and $4,000,
with little insurance. A message
from Mayor Dennison OF Taft is to
the effect that the fire loss Will ex-
coed $4,000. A total Of fifteen bdsi-
ness buildings and saloons were de-
stroyed and nothing of the contents
was saved. Rebuilding operations
have already started. 1t is learned
that the fire was not the result OF
O forest blaze. The origin OF the con.
fiagration is somewhat Of mystery
and the officials of the town are now
attempting to discover who was re-
sponsible. II is thought that an
overturned lamp in the Anneuser
building next to the postofiice caused
the disastrous fire.
