Big Meeting Of the Women Who Wan
to Vote Will Be Held in New
York City Tonight.

! NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-Hundreds of
working women, ranging from college
| professors and artists to cooks and
mattresses, will gather at Carnegie
hall tonight to give a glorious greet
| ing to Mrs. Emeline PankhurSt, leader
| and founder Of the strenuous suff1ra-
| gette movement in England. The mill
| tant leader Of the British forces will
| not have the countenance of the soci-
ETY. suffragettes of New York, Mrs.
Clarence Mackay, president Of the
Equal Suffrage society, having declin-
ed to appear at the meeting to intro
duce Mrs. Pankhurst.
Tonight's meeting will serve as a
celebration in commemoratiOn of the
anniversary of Mrs. Pankhurst's found
ing of the modern suffragette move
ment in London on Oct. 25, 1904.
Mrs. Pankhurst is now under sus-
pended sentence of the English courts,
having been placed under arrest in
June Of this year for leading a suf-
fragette delegation to the house OF
commons to interview the prime min
lister

sexes-not a fight for rights, but the

such a way as ito make us feel that
we shall ultimately achieve our aim
without sensationalism.''
While the English militants and
their American prototypes are dis
claimed by many among the conserva-
tive suffra gists, the Equal Franchise
society will be practically the only
logical organization unrepresented Off
cially at the Pankhurst meeting, and
individual members Of it will be pres

October Is.
LOUIS EUGENE CAVAlGNAC.

Louis Eugene Cavaignac, the French
general who became famous in con-
nection with the events of 1S4S in
France, was born in Paris 100 years
ago. When the French people rose
against their oppressors in 1S4S, Ca
vaignac was in Africa. He was imme-
diately recalled to France and offered
the portfolio Of minister of war. which
he accepted.
+ The crisis i'm the troubles Of France
was then approaching and Cavaignac's
measures were prompt and decisive.
In a few days he had assembled an
army of 10000 men in and around
Paris
On June 90 the terrible Communist
instruction burst forth and for three
days Paris presented the most terrible
scene of bloodshed and carnage which
had been witnessed there since the
$4,000 people persisted during those
awful days and property to the value
of more than a million dollars was
ruthlessly destroyed by the maddened
mob.
Gen. Cavaignac was in the midst of
the fray and directed the soldiers and
national guardsmen who at length, on
June 26. succeeded in suppressing the
insurrection. Cavaignac was made
dictator, but was defeated for the
presidency in the December elections
by Louis Napoleon. The last years OF
his life were spent quietly at his cOun-
try home, where he expired suddenly Of
heart disease on Oct. 2S, 1857.

LAND LOTTERY IS
LAST SCHEDULED

"shuffled up A number Of children
will make the drawings, and Superin-
tendent Written, with a megaphone,
will announce the names of the lucky
ones from day to day until the draw
ing is complete-until every farm of
the thousands to be given away is al
lotted
The lucky winner of a farm has I'M
til next April to prove his claim, -
as they do it nowadays. He has about
$14 in charges to pay, and five years
more to finish paying for the farm.
But he must live on the farm four
teen months consecutively and make
must be his home for at least fourteen
months.
If he cannot farm the land after
winning it, for some good reason, he
may sell it, but the reason must be
bona fide and perfectly satisfactory
to Uncle Sans agents.
Thousands of homeseekers from all
parts of the country have been look
ing forward to Uncle Sans last big
land lottery. To many in cities who
want to spend the rest of their lives
out in the open, this land drawing
comes as the most important event in
their lives. AS yet only half develop

ready proved itself the richest of agri-
cultural districts.

other grains are raised in abundance.

pose of our society is to promote the
welfare of women by securing the ma

chise for women because we believe in
the political and civil equality of men
and women
To secure it Mrs. Mackay said it was
not necessary to initiate the methods
used in other countries.

men in public and private life" she

United States unite in demanding the

said with courtesy and consideration.
1T has not seemed necessary in the
past and 1 do not think it will be
necessary in the future for us to go out
to the street corners and Shrek our
propaganda at the passersby. Be

A charming style of hair dress ng for
girls Of from sixteen to nineteen years OF
age is to roll the hair over a me derate-
sized cushion, dividing the pompadour
into three sections. to get the best result.
This brings a part either at or just below
each temple. Then each side lock, In
stead Of being laid back smoothly over
the cushion, should be taken seq lrateiy
and twisted under like rope until the
head line is reached. This makes a SHAPED
piece which is secured to the head by a
pin or comb. The only difficult par OF
this is that the twist may be made so
