Interesting Races fol
the Indoor Meet

The indoor athletic season will be in
augurated under the auspices of the
Gaelic club at the Auditorium rink on
the evening of October 90 with a pro-
gram of four events to be run off in
conjunction with the annual entertain
ment given under the auspices of the
club. Two relay races, one for teams
representing the Catholic schools and
one for runners from the public high
schools, are scheduled. The distance is
10 be a half mile. each team to have
four runners, furlong to be contested
by each competitor.
A special 500 yard dash and one
mile run in which several of the best
local middle distance runners have been
asked to take part will constitute the
remaining numbers on the program.
Valuable silver cups will be awarded to
the winning teams in the relay races,
and medals to the winners of the re-
naming events. In the race for Catho-
lie schools st. Ignatius college, Sacred
Heart college and st. Mary'S college of
Oakland have entered teams.
In the 500 yard dash Andrew Glarner
of the Olympic club expects to establish
new mark for this event on the coast.
The distance indoors is a very popular
one in the east, and last winter wit
messed several exciting races between
the cracks who competed on the floors
of the big armories in New York. No
entries have been received for the high
school relay race, but it is expected
that Lowell and Oakland will try to
win the handsome prize offered.

There certainly has been no injury
TO Wyoming on account of woman Suf-
frage- / think it has been a benefit
because it has demonstrated that a man
OF known immortality or dishonesty has
little chance of election"
From ColoradO: The women OF the
state of Colorado are just as devoted TO
their homes and families as they were
before they were granted the right OF
suffrage; in fact. / am of the opinion
they are better acquainted with the ne
cessities of good citizenship and are
trying to raise their children. both
boys and girls, with a realizing sense
of the duties devOlying upon them.
Marriage is Just as common as Ii
was 10 years ago, and do not believe
there are as many divorces granted
now as then. in proportion TO the num-
Der of marriages.
The best men in Colorado do not OBJ
ject in the least to the presence OF
women at the polls or in Office. and
while the names of women do not pre-
dominate on the ticket, still the men
vote for them just as readily as they
do for members of their own sex, and
the experience has been that women
officials are most excellent public serv-
ants. / do not see that women are
chronic Office seekers; in fact, not
nearly so much as the men.
Time and space do not admit of my
expatiating upon the good things that
have come to Colorado from the woman
element in politics. other than TO say
that it has been beneficial"
