MOST MILITANT.
ENGLISH WOMEN CAUSED MUCH
TROUBLE AT ELECTION HELD
YESTERDAY.
'UNIONISTS" WON OUT
In Campaign for Seat in Parliament
From Bermondsley, London Borough
Believed to Be knel Of
Budget.

London, Oct 2S.-The bye-election
today at Bermondsey, parliamentary
borough of London, which was char
acteriZed by the most militant at
tack of the suffragettes yet made, re-
suited in sweeping victory for the
unionists. John humphreys, Union
ist, won three-eornered fight with a
plurality of 987, overcoming the Lib
eral majority of 1859 in 1906 The
vote was as follows:
humphreys, 4,27S; Hughes, Liberal
1921; Salter, Socialist, 1,435.
The Unionist victory is considered
a severe blow to the supporters of
the budget, as this election had been
expected to afford good test of the
feeling in London and the country
generally on the impending struggle
in parliament. Bermondsey has been
q doubtful constituency for years, but
three years ago the election resulted
in a Liberal landslide. A strong
fight had been waged in this constitu-
ency by the three parties, but it final
~ resolved into the question of bud
get against tariff reform, and the out
come is expected to forecast the re-
suit of the general election, should
one be held.
The militant suffragettes adopted
numerous expedients to harrass the
election officers and those most close.
ly identified with the election. Mrs
Chaplin, one of the best known suffra-
settes slipped into one of the booths
and smashed bottle containing cor
rosiye acid upon the ballot box, with
the evident intention of running the
ballots. The acid spattered the Off
Gals, the broken glass cut their faces,
but the ballots were practically I'M
damaged. Later another suffragette

Tha JEAN II. Sparks Show.

The John Il. Sparks Show that
was here last Saturday is one Of the
cleanest shows that ever stopped in
Scotland Neck, and for that reason
deserves special mention. Especial
ly noticeable ard praiseworthy was
the fact that the show carried with
it NC gamblers. Heretofore it has
seemed that gamblers with their
schemes to get much in return for
little have been the necessary and
indispensable attendants Of every
circus that has been here. The cir
Gus that was here Saturday has
proved that even the show people
find them unnecessary. and realize
that the public finds ample attrac-
tons without them.
The John II. Spark Show is small
or han many, but what there is Of il
IS with seeing, and people of the
mos refined sensibilities may see
what there is without abashment
The show is continually improving
and, such a show deserves to be pat
ronizad that it may i'm prove.

spoken minister of the gospel, and
his sermons have done much good
and aroused much interest among
the many people who have been out
to hear him. In his work he has had
the valuable aid and hearty cooper
alton Of the church members who
have been earnest in their prayers
and jealous in their efforts to make
the meeting success.
Several professions Of faith have
been made, and there will probably
be many additions to the church.

A Liberal Response to a Worthy Call.

In The COMMONWEALTH of April
9Th appeared an article, "a Call to
Women, signed by Mrs. Gertrude
Kltchin Mcdowell, Chairman Monu-
rent Committee. In this article
Mrs. Mcdowell made an earest ap-
peal to the women of Scotland Neck
to take a deeper interest in the or
ganization of the United Daughters
of the Confederacy, and extended to
them special invitation to attend
their meeting that was to be held
on April 18th. In this article Mrs.
Mcdowell also called attention to
the fact that the Daughters had
pledged themselves to erect monu-
ment here for the Confederate dead
of the town and county. and called
upon every man, woman and child
to aid them in their laudable enter
prise. In response to this appeal
the following letter was received
from Mr.. A. L. Smith, Of Charlotte,
a Scotland Neck hoy" before the
sixties:
Il see from The COMMONWEALTH
Just received you have called meet
ing of the Daughters of the Confed-
eracy for next Monday afternoon for
the purpose of discussing the matter
of erecting in your town a monu-
ment to the memory of the Confed-
crate dead of the town and county.
Nothing can be more appropriate
than this laudable undertaking, and
being a Scotland Neck boy before
the COS, it will be my pleasure to
tender you a subscription of $4,000
toward this end.
After the matter takes shape and
you get it under way, If further
funds are needed | will do my part
by my old county of Halifax and
more especially Dear old Scotland
Neck.
To-day being the Anniversary OF
Gen. Lees surrender makes it a fit
ting time for such an offer
Mr.. Smiths hearty and liberal re-
Spouse to the appeal Mrs. Mcdowell
sent out should only hasten and
strengthen us all in our efforts to
help the Daughters in every way we
can to erect the monument they have
pledged themselves to erect mon
ument that will commemorate the
heroic deeds of our dead, and stanc
as loving tribnte to the lives Of oul
living soldiers.
