ASSERTS NATURE WILL
DEFEAT SUFFRAGETTES
Dean of Medical School Bases
Argument Upon History

NEW YORK, Feb. 11.-Nature will
ultimately defeat the suffragists, ac-
eording to DR.. James ]. Walsh, dean of
the Fordham university medical school.
Speaking before the National Lea que
for the Civic Education of Women
the anti-suffra gists-Doctor Walsh as
serted that even if women were now
granted suffrage nature would elm
mate from the race all who cared about
exercising it in the course of three or
four generations.
The speaker quoted history in sup
port of his argument. showing how. in
repeated instances. women had made a
sudden burst to the front in intellectual
matters to fall back again inevitably
in the course of a few years TO domes-
tic duties, through the working OF some
unknown biological law.
.Aristophanes, the Greek playwright.
in one of his plays deals with the
woman suffrage movement" said Doc
tor Walsh. He tells how the women.
disguised as men, seized the reins of
government.
Yet we always find that in three or
four genera tions the interest OF women
in these intellectual movements drop
out There seems TO be biological law
that the women who take an interest in
things outside the home get rubbed out
ii is not the Creator who does it, but
nature. They rub out themselves. Ii
is done quite smoothly and we, in the
midst of il. don't notice ii"

As the articles call for catch weights,
there will be no strenuous work to take
off weight, just enough to get in top
shape for the meeting.
To clear mis- record of the two deci-
siOns against him, Thompson made his
match here, and says that he will more
than even up by winning the way he
did at the Utah Hot springs in 1908.
Sullivan and his hackers are just as
confident, however, and when the sides
line UP for the betting fray there prom
ises to be many wagers flying thick and
fast.
Thompson says that he will do but
little boxing, as he does not need it.
Plenty of road work, and with the
gymnasium apparatus. will constitute
his daily program. Sullivan will have
about the same program. Pete'S box
ing is admitted to be about the clever
est in the lightweight Lewiston, and he
will need little preparation in that line.
Both are now in condition, and with
the prep of one week will be on edge
for a great battle.

MANY NEW STALLS
FOR BUENA VISTA

Lumber for more than 200 stalls was
hauled to Buena Vista yesterday, and
work on the construction of the new
quarters will start today. While the
new stalls will increase the accommo-
dations at the track to more than 500,
the directors of the club believe that
the number is still far too short. Ar
engagements for more than eco stalls
have been made near the track, and
with, possibly, 100 more stalls TO be
built, all of the thoroughbreds will be
housed.
While the entries from Emeryville
for the stakes for the meeting have
not been received, the nominations
from eastern horsemen sent to the club
headquarters here guarantee the best
class in running stock ever seen on an
