world today needs the assistance of
all human energy and intellect. BY
persisting in Withholding the franchise
from women the world is losing {. ire
mendous force-just one-half of that
human power that would make for fur
ther progress and advancement Let
us bring every brain into the actual
governmental life.
After obtaining the right of suff-
rage, if women should prove-though
| make no such admission-not so de-
sirable in public office as men. you
may, be sure that the Judgment of all
the people will determine that ques-
ton rightly. But 1 can't see that the
country will be running any risk by at
least thus giving wimen the just right
of competing with men, especially
when that competition would benefit
all of u.s.
The campaign which is to be opened
this fall, following the initial rallying
cry that again will be sounded through
the lectures in Marble House, is to be
modelled along the lines laid down by
successful and practical politicians.
Permanent headquarters, after their
establishment in every Assembly dis
trict, will be open at all times" said
Mrs. Belmont. Men as we'll as Wo-
men are joining the various suffrage
organizations, and many men of promi-
nence have evinced their desire to aid
the campaign financially.
Il shall spend the winter touring
New York state with Mrs. Cassett, our
state president, and other prominent
speakers, and shall speak on the sub
ject of votes for women as often as the
other workers and myself think it
necessary. In the meantime Mrs.
Mackey will work in New York city

very safe in such hands"
Mrs Belmont here dwelt on a new
phase of the Boston tea party.
Nothing so outrageous has been done
by the workers for votes for women for
instance" declared Mrs. Belmont, "as
was done by the men who won fame
by throwing tea overheard in Boston

GARFIELD, Aug 24.-Hundreds of

than many anticipated and there will
be many fifty-bushel-an-a acre yields.

RICHEST PURSES
 KEENE STILL WINS

New York, May 22.-(Specia1)-When it comes down to winning the very rich purses on the Metropolitan circuit one has to take off his hat to James R. Keene, for he certainly appears to have the Indian sign on all the other horsemen. At Belmont park today Hilarious, a colt belonging to the vice chairman of the Jockey club made his debut as a 3-year- old in the S1O.OOO Withers stakes and gal loped home an easy winner
 Thirty-six runners were nominated for this classic, but when the bugle called the field to the post only three carried colors-Fayette, Madden colt, was made favorite at to 5; Hilarious was a close second at to 5. and Joe Madden was the outsider at to 1.
 Hilarious was so much the better that the real race was between Maddens run ner and his former stablemate for the place. Fayette chased Hilarious for five eighths of mile. when he quit and Joe Madden came along and beat him threo lengths for the place.
 There was a great crowd out today. The track was sloppy. but not bad enough to keep many of the entrants in the stables
 The talent seemed to have the happy faculty of landing on the majority of the winners and sent the brokers home with anything but favorable dispositions.

GOTHAM OARSMEN
 TAKE THE HONORS American Rowing Association's
 Feat At Philadelphia CeRNELL'S BIG VICTORY Wins Special Feature Event From Harvard and Pennsylvania and
 Establishes New Record For
 the Distance.
CeRNELL'S BIG VICTORY

Philadelphia, May 22.-New York oars- men carried off the bulk of the honors at the seventh annual regatta of the American Rowing association here this afternoon. Of the 12 events New York entries won seven, Philadelphia two, liar ward one. Cornell one and Baltimore one steady rain fell throughout the day and made rowing uncomfortable.
 Due principally to the strong northeast wind at the backs of the oarsmen and the swift current, new records were es- tablished in five events, the first singles, second singles and first double sculls first pared pared shells and the junior collegiate eights.
 Cornell won the feature event of the day which was the race for jurior col legiate eights, open only to crews whose members never rowed in a varsity boat at Poughkeepsie or New London
 There were three crews in this race Cornell, Harvard and Pennsylvania The crimson oarsmen were the favorites and led for the first quarter mile of the one and five-sixteenths miles course. Then the Cornell eight moved on even terms and soon were few feet in advance of Harvard From this point on Cornell was never headed. The time was 6:26 4-5, which beat the record of 6:27 made by Yale last year
 Harvard made some amends for her defeat in the junior college race by win ming from the Malta Boat club of this city in the race for first eights.
 Durando Miller and his brother, J. A. Miller, both of the New York Athletic club won the races for first and second single sculls, respectively, and each broke the record.

Atlanta in Memphis.
 Nashville in New Orleans.


 Mobile. May 22.-(special)-Tn a game that was marred by only one error and characterized by exceptionally fast field ing the Sea Gulls annexed the last game of the series this afternoon by the score of 1 to 0. Stockdale and schopp entered into a great pitchers battle, in which the latter had a shade the better of the argument. He allowed but four hits, while Stockdale yielded five.
 The one tally of the game was made In the first inning.
 A fast double play, with the bases full, shut off Mobiles only other chance of get ting over an additional run.
 After Birmingham had gone out in or der in it's half of the first Schopp got away bad and passed Wheat, first up. Sentell laid down a bunt and was thrown out at first, while Wheat cantered to second. Rhoton flied to Molesworth, who held Wheat at second. Thornton deliv- cred the goods in the shape of a ring ing single to left center that brought Wheat over the plate. although he beat Henline's throw to Raub to catch him by hairs breadth.
 3irm1nsnam best chance to score came ,fn the second inning, when Raftis opened / with a clean single to left field. Gygll bunted fly between the plate and Stock dale While Hardy and Stockdale were arguing as to which would go after the ball it fell in safe territory Gygli went to first and Raftis to second With Hen line up, Raftis playing off second drew a throw from Hardy that went into center field, Raftis eantering to third. while Gygli was thrown out trying to go tC second. With one down, Raftis on tn and Henline up, 1t looked like a cincf to tie the score, but stockdale steadiec down and struck Henine out. Raul grounded out from third to first
 Never again did Birmingham ever look dangerous for when the first man uI managed to get on the sacrifice failed or something else went wrong.
 A fast double play in the sixth sent Mo- biles chances of scoring any additional tallies a-g1mmering Sabrie, after three successive hits had filled the bases with one down, grounded to Ellam, who shot the ball to Bowen, forcing one runner and Bowen by fast work completed the double at first.
 The Birmingham bunch will remain here until an early morning train tomor- row. when they depart for the Crescent City to tie up there with the Pelicans.

Memphis, May 22.-Montgomery park, for 30 years and more the scene of ,1nany of the greatest running races in the country. was formally dedicated as race track for trotters and pacers this afternoon when a special meeting for amateur drivers was given.
