SUFFRAGE BILL
NEEDS FIVE MORE
SENATE VOTES

OLYMPIA, Feb 8.-(Special Core
spondence)-Upon the efforts of the
woman suffrage lobby this week will
depend the success of the bill now
pending in the senate which proposes
to submit an amendment to the state
constitution to give women the right Of
ballot. Although a majority of the
senate is pledged to support the bill,
the suffragists lack several votes of
having the necessary two-thirds ma
jority According to a careful poll of
the senate, there are twenty three SEN
atOrs who will vote for the suffrage
bill when it is placed on it's final pas
sage. 1t will require twenty-eight votes
to pass the measure and the efforts Of
the lobbyists will be directed this week
toward winning over the five votes
necessary for the success of the bill.
The suffrage headquarters at the
Horn residence, on Main street, were
unusually active last week. New re-

create a sensation if De Tierre is
brought to trial. The paragraph that
forms the brief epilogue reads as fol-
lows:
This is a Funny Book, written by
a Funny Man, in Funny House. What
do you think about it?"
De There's crime was one of pecu-
liar atrocity. His family was well
known in Albany, where he lived with
his brother, William, and his mother.
Disputes over division of property
resulted in John De Tierre giving up
all other business and devoting himself
entirely to what he declared was the
maintenance of a principle. He pre-
pared and caused to be introduced into
the legislature bills prohibiting a
father from disinheriting son or
daughter who took the part of the
mother in a family quarrel. On March
%. 1902, he met his brother William
on Swan street, Albany, and whipping
out revolver fired. six shots. All went
wild. He drew another weapon and
with the first shot pierced his broth
er's heart Then he stood over him, and
after firing five shots into different
parts of the victims head and body he
placed over the dead mans face a
placard on which was written in bold
characters:
You have seen fatal wedding. Now
see a mothers heart"
De Tierre was arrested and indicted
for murder in the first degree, but the
district attorney was convinced that
he was irresponsible, and when this
view was confirmed by DR.. Macdonald,
the murderer was, sent to Matteawan.
While it is admitted there that his
condition has improved, he still is re-
garded as insane and dangerous. He
was recently brought to White Plains
on a writ Of habeas corpus, issued by
Justice Maddox, of Brooklyn, on the
application of Miss Coleman. The dis
trict attorney. who opposed bringing
De Tierre to trial for murder, said he
would produce SO witnesses tomorrow
to prove the prisoner a lunatic and I'M
fit to understand or conduct a defense.
Miss Coleman declares she will prove
De There's sanity with three witnesses.
Miss Coleman, who is a suffragette,
is to be married at Easter to Freder-
lex hampton Hardenbrook.

Bride Refused to
Buy Hubby'S Shoes

SEATTLE, Feb. ST have spent
$1,000 on my husband already, ana
we have only been married four
months" said one Of two prepossesslng
young women to Assistant Prosecuting
Attorney r. w. Prigmore yesterday
into whose official ears she poured
tale of woe.
"I want to have him arrested because
he keeps bothering me for money WIN
which to buy shoes, after l have told
him to earn his own money. SO there
now!"
To emphasize her remark the FAIR
visitor stamped her daintily- shod foot
on the carpet of the attorneys floor.
The sympathetic prosecutor. from ms
recollection of the code, could hardly
find provision for issuing warrant 1or
man Just because he asked his wire
| for a pair of shoes, so the woman vol
unteered further information.
"He only married me for my money,
and I only knew him three weeks be-
fore we were married, but 1 can see no
reason why 1 should support him, even
| if I did get my resources from my first
husband"
Even with this added information
Mr.. Prigmore regretted that the code
was so compiled as to make the issuing
| of a warrant impossible on the
grounds submitted, and consolation
was all that he could offer.
Come on, Agnes said her COM
panion, 1--WE are only wasting time
| here The only thing that you can
do is to get a divorce, the way l did;
and the next time YOU get married
don't pick out man you have only
known three weeks. I am giving you
the benefit Of my own experience. for
l knew my husband three days be-
fore 1 married him.
Mr.. Prigmore assented to this as
the best solution of the difficulty
under the circumstances, as he bowed
them out of the door,

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, Feb. S.-A
beautiful woman appeared at attor-
ney for a client who is murderous
mailman, before Judge Thompson at
Poughkeepsie recently and endeavored
to prove to the satisfaction of that
jurist that the authorship of a book
of epigrams was q sufficient proof of
sanity.
The fair lawyer is Miss Mary Cole
man, and her client is John B De
Tierre who killed his brother, was ad-
judged insane and is now a guest Of
the MatteaWan asylum for the crimi-
nal insane, where for six years he has
been closely confined as the most
dangerous paranoiac: in the institution.
If Miss Coleman succeeds in show
ing that De Tierre is capable of con-
ferring with counsel, his trial for first
degree murder will be ordered. and
the young woman lawyer will be the
first of her sex in the country to act
as chief counsel for the defense in a
legal battle for a mans life.
Miss Coleman sought to prove her
contention of De Tferre's sanity by in
Producing the manuscript of a book of
epigrams which her client has written
while confined at the Matteawan,
and which will shortly be published.
The writings of the murderer are
confined exclusively to aphoriSms,
which he claims are ABSOLUTELY original
and in no sense adaptations of sayings
by other persons. The title of the work
Miss Coleman declines to divulge, for
reasons which she is not ready to

According to present plans. the lob

When the new recruits arrive at the
suffrage headquarters they are duly
coached in the art of winning senators
by arguments. They are admonished
never to bore legislator by too much
insistence. They are told that if they
should fail to win a vote, not to be
disheartened, as somebody else might
be more successful The skill and the
tact with which the suffrage question
has L1en handled here is a revelation
to other lobbyists. The suffragists
1,.x JoGy 90 how
want, and their side of the question is
Put forward intelligently and attrac-
lively. They assume that every man is
willing to give every person fair play.
The question presented to the legis-
lators is this:
Twill you permit the people to say
whether women shall have the right to
vote?"
1t is pointed out to the legislators
that the passage of the bill submitting
the proposed amendment does not set
tie the matter; that when the amend
men is submitted only men can vote
on it. Whether the amendment will ul-
timately carry is no concern of the
suffrage lobby. That will be a matter
of future battles.
If the suffrage amendment is sub
mitted to the people, the national con-
vention of suffrag ists, which will be
held in Seattle next summer, promises
to be the best attended assembly of
women held in many years. With a
campaign for equal rights on, women
from all over the United States will
be attracted to Seattle The lobby in
Olympia has cleverly pointed out that
a convention of 5000 women, who will
bring their husbands, children and rel
atives. will do much toward making
the exposition a success. The King
county senatorial delegation has been
appealed to on that phase of the
question. ~
At present the suffrage bill is in the
hands Of the committee on constitu-
ton and constitutional revision of the
senate The majority of the commit
tee will favor the bill, and it will not
be reported until there are enough
votes to carry by thirds majority.
