ARE
STIRRING SPOKANE

T 1T is pretty we'll understood among
those who are in earnest in this cam
paign that the man who is open to
conviction on the matter of equal suf-
frage will be the one who is to en-
counter the least difficulty in winning
his suit That, we believe, is one of
the strong points in our campaign.
political economy will be another
feature. We intend to take up all the
problems just as men do. and there
will be debates and discussions at our
regular meetings 1t may be that these
will eventually work themselves into
public meetings and will be one Of the
factors in suffragists' work in Spo-
kane and throughout the state of
Washington
1--WE have practically all the suffra
gists in Spokane lined up in the work,
and it may be we shall extend the
campaign throughout other parts of
the country, and in this we believe we
have the best plan Of conversion that
has yet been devised.
I'm this connection we shall make
an attempt to enlist every unmarried
girl in Spokane, believing that as Rev.
Anna Shaw says, in the young blood
there is strength.
eff the young women get into this
work as we believe they will they will
be able to convert many more young
men than would otherwise come to the
support of the equal suffrage move
ment They are willing to risk a few
of their chances on the issue and
know of many who are so sincere they
will do so without hesitation"
Will Do Anything.
Miss Alice Brownell a charter mem
Der of the club said in the course of
an interview:
1--WE believe that if the young men
are ready to swear everything even to
their lives for us there is no reason
why they should hesitate to come out
in the fight under our banner.

Quoted on the lines of a field hospital

Sanitation, line of work in which
the American medical officers have
hade great progress in recent years
will be another important part of the
exercises Every appliance to rid
camps of garbage, mosquitoes, and
other insects will be used. The camp
incinerators will be wonderful affairs
and even the used water will be con-
sumed in a minimum of tirne without
a suggestion of an odor.
At the camp at Pine Plains, last
summer, the sanitation officers so ar
ranged the disposal of waste material
that during the whole thirty days in
camp hardly a fly or other insect was
seen, and there were only half dozen
sick cases out of 10000 troops.
The automobile as an adjunct to
medical military service will also be
tested at Anteitam, and various motor
ambulances will be tried out.
While the encampment is controlled
ana directed by regulars, militia medi-
cal officers will be welcomed at An
tietam, and every chance will be af-
forded them to participate in the in
struction.

ST. SWJTHIN'S
DAY IN ENGLAND

For fortie dayes twill rain ma MARE"
1t is a remarkable fact, that, when
,alive, ST Swithin had nothing to do
with the weather, and it was not until
he had been dead a century that his
pull with the weather bureau was
discovered. 1t came about in this
wise:
In 81 a great concourse of clerks
and prelates gathered on July Is at
the humble grave that lay under the
drip of the caves Of ancient Winches-
ter church. The day was the festival
of st. Swithin, and the churchmen
were gathered with spade and candle
to have up his bones. that lay in their
damp grave under the drippings, and
to bear them to a prouder resting
place within the fame.
1t so happened that the old Saint,
dead century before, had made a
last wish in humility, which later men
rocked of but lightly Even while
they sought to do him reverence. and
even though they We're the hottest
men of the Saxon realm, they said
! that Swithin had rested long enough
under the rain spouts. Then they
| came out in slow procession, and ap-
preached the spot where the humble
mans bones had so long taken the
drain of the holy roof. But OF a sud-

den, as they were about to begin dig
ging, there came such a flood of rain
as put out the tapers and made the
grave diggers drop their spades, and
the clerics caper back to shelter.
The clergy prayed, much troubled
by the mischance of the strange and
miraculous rains, but next day they
went back and again the spades were
put to the trench. Again fell such a
flood of water as made the frightened
disturbers course back under roof and
rafter, to save their cossacks. Again
and again they tried, with such slow
ness to take a hint as characterizes
those old fellows of legend
Forty days they were Wetted by
these astounding rains. But forty-on
days, little knowing the harm that
they were working to the climate,
they came back, with spade and book
and candle And on the last day they
had up the bones Of Swithin and car
ried them, water soaked as they were,
in all state and ceremony to a dryer
resting place near the chancel. Ever
since then the rains that have fallen
on Swithin's mass have kept on for
, forty days, even as they did that sum-
mer when his grave was to be dug
open and emptied.
Men gradually began to perceive
that there had been a great miracle
repeated itself Another century, and
| in 1894 the rain brewing bones were
| lifted gingerly and transferred to the
new Cathedral, where they are to this
| day
Naturally time did it's work, and

as worthy man but a singularly

as permanent as his influence on the
weather. He was a preceptor of AL

him on the boys trip to Rome to be
confirmed. He died in S62 Until his
