Count ToIStoi
Sends an Appeal
to All People
Russian Author Urges Men of Every
Nation to Refuse to Serve as
Soldiers.

GENEVA, Nov. 2S-Count Leo Tolstoi.
by way Of Switzerland, has given another
message to the world. At an ~anti-military
meeting held at Bienne. when 100 Swiss and
foreign delegates were assembled, Count
Tolstors appeal to the people was read
amid great enthusiasm. 1t had been writ
ten especially for the recent peace con-
gress at Stockholm and would have been
greatly embarrassing on account Of its
violence to the Swedish authorities, who,
however, were saved by the timely strike
which caused a postponement of the con-
gress. Later it was arranged to read it
at Berlin, but the police prohibited it. Yes
terday Tolstois friends in Geneva, hav-
ing obtained permission, delivered his mes
sage at Bienne, Tolstoi, in II appeals to
the good sense OF the worlds peoples to
refuse to serve as soldiers. either volun-
tarily or under pressure, even II that re-
fusal entails punishment. Killing by sold
iers, he asserts, is a criminal act.
The message appeals, not to governments
but directly to peoples and their good
sense to stop growth Of armies and navies.

American Women
Are Well Treated
British suffragette Says This is
Reason They Cannot Appreciate
Their Political Slavery.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-Mrs. Philip
Snowden, wife of a liberal member of the
British Parliament and a noted suffra-
gette, tried to see President Taft today.
She failed. Protesting that she does not
belong to the militant branch that made
the lives of British statesmen miserable
for the last few months, Mrs. Snowden
left the White House announcing that she
would endeavor tomorrow again to run
the gauntlet that shut her off from the
chief executive of the United States.
Mrs. Snowden was something of a disap-
pointment to the members of the Woman's
Suffrage movement here. In a lecture to-
night at the Masonic temple, she declared
that American women could not entertain
the movement seriously. This, she ex-
planned, was by reason Of the fact that
there are some 100000 more men than
women in this country, and that the women
here are treated so well that they fail to
appreciate their political slavery.
In England, she said, the women out
number the men by 100000 and the situa-
ton is reversed.

sidered the consequences of the rejection
Of the bill and were ready to face them.
Lord Loreburn replied, contending that
there was nothing in the bill foreign to
finance with which the House Of Com
cons had the exclusive right to deal.
What was embodied in the bill was not
new In the United States and Germany,
and was not only approved by the present
but by past Houses Of Commons.
Besides the lord chancellor, many peers
addressed the house. but interest waned.
The duke of Norfolk, who supported Lord
Lansdowne's resolution, confessed this the
lords had a serious and anxious problem
to face, but that should not daunt them

MINISTER'S co AFTER SHOWS

ON Sunday.

Effort VIII BE Made 10 Close Them
on sundays.
The Ministerial association has decided
to wage war on Sunday shows and other
forms Of public amusement on the Sab
bath. At the meeting Of the association
yesterday morning the committee on Sab
bath observance was instructed by unani-
nous vote to call the attention of the
city and county authorities to the fact that
theaters and other places Of amusement
are being run unlawfully on Sunday af-
ternoons and evenings In Council Bluffs,
and to request these officials to put the
lid on this alleged open violation of the
law.
The ministers raise special objection
to the 8 and 1O-cent picture and vaude-
willie shows and to the skating Kinks,
where children are attracted in large num-
bers. The fact that these places are kept
open on Sunday evenings greatly Increases
the difficulty Of keeping boys and gitls off
the streets the ministers say.
The attention of the association was
called to this matter by a number Of citi-
zens who nave been aroused over the case
Of the three little girls who were recently
before the Juvenile court and whose ad-
missions to the court brought about the
arrest Of two men on serious charges.
DR.. o. o. smith, Rev. J. NJ. Williams
