Women Lobbyists
At the Capitol
InLarge Force

The female lobbyist is usually found
exclusively between the covers Of yell
low novels written by people who never
came to Washington. She is a lissorne
person with large, lLstrous eyes, and a
fetching way that is presumed to be
especially captivating to statesmen; al
together a most delightful person to
write about. and one whom 1t would be
a pleasure to meet if she existed. She
doesn't-not that one.
The female lobbyist in esse. however.
is turning up In Washington in remark
able numbers this session. She is diff
ferent. She wants child labor legisla-
ton, and represents a federation Of
women's clubs somewhere. Or she wants
the pension bill fer widows Of the Next
can war; or for widows Of both the
Mexican and civil wars. Or, perhaps.
she is anxious to redress the wrongs Of
the people of the Congo. Just now she
Is especially strong in behalf of the
prohibition legislation for the District Of
Columbia. The ecCnOmic status OF WON

demand for equal wages for men and
women doing the same works OF deep

the women lobbyists. Then there are
more than usual of them TeDreSent{ng
claims which ch.lrches, estates. etc
hold against the Government for dam
ages alleged to have been done by Fed
eral troops during the civil war.
The female lobbyist isn't without her
utilities She gets things very often:
out she doesn't get them by working
her gCO-goO eyes at elder statesmen
She gets them by dint of incessant IT.
Sistence which makes her a nuisance
and induces men to vote for her little
bill in order to be riG of her It is roo

thority for this IS Nine Jane Norla,

Nine. Noria finds quite as much di-
version in selecting and experimenting
the making Of smart walking suit as
the beautiful gowns Of the heroines she
impersonates. She learned to sew long
before she learned to sing. and though
she is a slave TO her later master she

season here in La Gioc0nda," but an
accident to the celebrated Spanish
tenor, Constantine. has necessitated a

The success with which Nine. Noria
designs the gowns for her roles is
shown in the accompanying cut-her cos
tune for Elsa, in "Lohengril." Every
detail was arranged by the prima don
ina, who has kept close to tradition. but.
iat the same time, has added little
charming touches that materially
heighten the beauty OF the costume.
