thank you. In the opinion of the spe-
Cialists who have examined II, the struc-
ture has entirely recovered from the
indisposition of yesterday afternoon,
when il peevishly refused for an hour
10 allow homeward-bOund toilers Of the
Eastern branch suburb to reach their
domiciles.
Up in the air went the draw, as a
dutiful bridge-draw should when the
engineer pushes the button. When the
little tug with its trailer of mudscows
had chugged through, however, the en-
Rfneer pressed another button. But il
was no use pressing. For an hour the
draw stayed up, despite the coaXng
and doctoring of the electricians.
In rowboats, and on foot by round
about routes, scores of AnacostIans
managed 20 reach the other side OF the
branch. Then when nearly everybody
had left, the draw came gently down,
settled into place as If nothing had hap
,pened and another crisis in the career
of Aoacostia had passed.

NEW YORK, March 19.-Discussing
the world-movement toward woman
suffrage, Mrs. Clarence Msckay. social
leader, clubwoman. and wife of one Of
Americas richest men, takes up the
cudgels for her less fortunate sisters in
characteristic manner.
1T is pathetic" she declares, ito
think that there should be any division
Of feeling between the women who have
leisure and The women who have none
There they are, divided, as it were,
by a great sheet OF crystal They are
near together, and yet they are so sep
arated that, while those on me one side
can see those on the other. they cannot
hear them, or speak to them. or rightly
understand them.
Most Prominent Suffragist.
Mrs. Mackay. who is president of the
Equal Franchise Society, is the most
prominent woman in America to es-
pouse the cause of woman suffrage,
and I'm the April number Of Munsey's
Magazine she discusses freely her rea-
sons for actively taking the field for
equal acknowledgements.
why Mrs Mackay declares, ito my
mind the real Importance Of giving
women votes would be found I'm this
row left unheeded would be taken up
and solved.
I'VE must see our opportunity. There
are filthy streets and frightful tene-
ments to be made clean and wholesome.
There are schools which educate the
children of the women of today. and
thesS need constant care. There is the
injustice and the oppression suffered by
those women who have TO make liv-
ing for themselves.
Rich Women Not Frivolous.
1T is such mistake TO fancy that
women who have leisure and money are
Indifferent and frivolous. Nothing in
the world could be less true
Mrs Mackay not only defends the
women OF the 400" but points out
many ways in which women OF all
classes can work toward civic better
ment through the agency Of the ballot
box
Being a leader IN the most exclusive
social circles OF America, Mrs. Mac
kay's attitude has attracted wide
spread attention. She first startled her
friends by standing for election and
defeating her opponent some years ago
in the school board elections at Roslyn,
Long Island. where the MaclSay country
home Is located. Since that tine Mrs.
Mackay has taken "A keen interest IN
political matters.
