GAN WOMEN
DO POLITICS?
ASK BACHELOR SENATORS
THEY ENTERTAINED WHILE
EQUAL SUFFRAGE BILL
WENT THROUGH IN WIS.,
CONSiN.

MADISON, Wis. April 7.-Advo-
Gates of woman's suffrage scored
heavily on the bachelors of the
senate when they succeeded in
quietly putting through the Stout
suffrage bill in that body while the
unmarried members were decoyed
to various parts of the capital by
the fair advocates of the bill and
their allies ON one pretext or an,
other. The measure provides that
the question of extending the cleo
tive franchise to women shall be
submitted to the voters for ap-
proval or disapproval at the gen
eral election next year.
When the alarm was finally
sounded and the bachelors rushed
back to the senate chambers they
found that the bill had been pass
ed. Then, not wishing to show
their hand, they went TO Senator
Bird, one of the few married mem
bers opposed to the bill, and in
duced him to give notice that he
would move reconsideration OF
the vote.
The coup by which the bill was
put through the senate was one OF
the best ever pulled off here.

moved to the location at the corner of Wall and
Riverside, and now after an unbroken run of
success, we will open in this splendid new store,
determined more than ever to keep up to the
high standard that was set years ago, that of
giving the best grade merchandise at moderate
prices, of charging one price to all, and of SELL
ing each seasons goods during that season,
carrying over nothing from one year to another
Our business policy has been approved by the
men of Spokane, for there has not been single
year that has not seen splendid increase over
the previous years business and in later years
so great has been our business that we have
been actually forced out of the old store-it was
too snrall-and into this new one, which has
been fitted up regardless of expense, the only
thing considered being the convenience and
comfort of our patrons. '4
When you see the new store you will have
looked at the finest establishment west of Chi

will feel certain that not for many long day
will any other store be able to show you such
comprehensive lines and assortment of high
grade wearabes. You must not miss the for

in Summit street, East Orange, died
at his home. SO North Clinton street,
at $50 o'clock today. He had beer i'll
since last Saturday, when he was
stricken with pneumonia.
Mr.. Erkander was one of the best
known ministers in the Oranges, owing
to the work he did in building up his

had been for ten years. Previous to
that he had had churches in Lisbon,
Mich, and Osooda, Mich. When he
came Ito East Orange the congrega-
ton had no church. Meetings were
held in Berkeley Hall. 1t was due to
his efforts that the present church,

Paulus and Elias Erkander. The flu
neral arrangements have not yet been

BLACK HAND OUTRAGE
IN HARRISON! EXTRA!!
Mysterious Negress Leaves Grip
in Hallway and Citizens Gather.

A negress of huge dimensions was
seen to enter the tenement house at 743
Harrison avenue. Harrison. about ]
o'clock this morning. She carried a
grip going in, and when she emerged
a half hour later she was without the
grip.
The first of the tenants in the build
ing to come out this morning saw the
grip in the hallway, and the thought
that flashed through his brain was that
the grip contained a bomb. A Black
Hand plot was scented and he COM
municated his fears to the other in
mates.
Immediately there was a scurry from
the building and the tenants stood at q
safe distance until the arrival of Po-
liceman Peter. Brady. The latter en-
tered the building. after telling hose
on the outside that he intended Open
ing the satchel. The people on the out
side expected every minute to see the
building and Brady go up in the air in
a tremendous explosion.
When there was no report after a
few minutes some of the more ven
tursome took a peep inside. They saw
Brady bending over the satchel, finger
ing a bundle of clothing. Brady ex-
planned to the ~astenished onlookers that
the negress had evidently made a stop
to change her clothing. That was all.
