sensational cheering when Mrs. Ayr
ton and four other members of the
assemblage each offered 1000 pounds
apiece toward this fund. There were
many enthusiastic speeches, and sew
eral overflow meetings were organ
lied to care for the crowd which de-
manded admission.
Los Angeles women who witnessed
this parade and attended the meeting
have written home that they see much
in favor of the militant movement.
The patriotism which these women
have shown and the plans by which
they have attained the influence they
now have are interesting, and it is
probable that the local political equal
ity field will have a great revival OF
interest and enthusiasm when these
women return to their homes in the
autumn.
The picnic and outing for the 800
orphans of Los Angeles homes and
asylums will be given Tuesday at Ven
ice under the auspices of the Humane
society. The children will be trans
ported to the beach in automobll
many of which have been donated by
charitable and kind-hearted citizens.
The list of patronesses for this affair
includes names which are we'll known
in all helpful enterprises and the men
of the city have been most liberal IN
offering such service and assistance as
their means allowed.
The children will leave the Hambur-

line, the green and white and gold of
the Women's Freedom league, the
beautiful emblems of the Actresses
Franchise league, of the Writers, of the
Chelsea Artists, and Of numberless
other special contingents.
At the head Of this parade was the
most significant section of all, the
Pageant of Prisoners. Over 800 women
represented the number of imprison-
ments suffered by women since the mill
liant movement began. Each of these
women carried a tall silver wand,
crowned with the broad arrow, which,
originally intended as a mark of dis
grace, has now become to the suf-
fragettes a symbol of honor and free
dom. Noticeable among this group of
women We're Lady Constance Lytton,
Mrs. Brailsford and Miss Mary Cav
thorpe. There was also a band of
filters and drummers, composed entire
ly of young women in smart purple
uniforms of cutaWay coat and skirt
with trimmings of gold and white.
An enormous crowd of sightseers
was gathered along the line of the
march, and the fervor and zeal of
these women, fighting for what they
consider an essential factor of their
freedom, moved many of the sympa-
thizing women to tears.
No less remarkable in point of at
tendance, and in the spirit which ami
mated 1t, was the mass meeting which
followed this parade. There were
speeches in which was evidence great
confidence that the Shackleton bill
would become a law. Lord Lytton was
one of the speakers, and after his adj
dress a considerable time was given
to the collection of funds for the Wo-
mems Social and Political union. Mrs.
Pankhurst announced that up to that
time the amount of G68,575 had been
received toward a special 100000 fund
and she invited further donations. The
scene which followed this was one of
