Women Vote in Wurtembera.

women vote IN WUFtcmOeF9.
The Diet of Wurtemberg has grant
ed women the right to vote for MEM
bers of chamber of agriculture and
has also made them eligible on the
same terms as men. The chamber of
agriculture is new institution. The
bill providing for its establishment
gave votes to women on equal terms
with men but did not make them
eligible. The Suffrage association at
once sent a petition that women be
made eligible as members. They point
ed out that according to the latest GEN.
sus nearly as many women as men
were engaged in agriculture in Wurt-
temberg, that more than 10000 OF
them owned the land which they
worked, that Wurttemberg is essential.

are carried on industries that belong
especially to women, such as poultry
raising, vegetable and fruit growing,

NEW KIND OF WATER WITCH
One Of UNCLE Sans Biologists Does
Some Surprising Stunts In Lo-
eating Water Veins.

N. H. barton is a government ge-
Ologist who does surprising stunts in
the way of finding water. The geo.
logical survey has carried on exten.
tive investigations of underground
waters, which make Mr.. Darton's
prophecies possible. One of his most
notable successes was a well at Edge
mont, S. D. Mr.. Darton predicted that
water should be expected in the Dead
wood sandstone about 5000 feet be-
low the surface.
Accordingly the boring was begun,
but meeting with many difficulties
which caused great delay and ex-
pense, there was a disposition to
abandon the work.
The engineers in charge, having
confidence in Mr. Darton's prediction,
and their faith was finally rewarded
by striking a great flow of water at a
depth of 1906 feet.
The we'll yields 100000 gallons a
day of tepid water satisfactory for To-
connective and other uses. and as. there
Is not good water within sixty miles
and much of the supply had to be
hauled in tank cars, the value of this
flow is inestimable.
In the same general section of South
Dakota, as we'll as in other western
states, many other wells from 1895 to
2,135 feet deep have closely verified
Mr. Darton's predictions and are fur
nishing supply of excellent water.
1t is difficult to estimate the money
value of successful artesian well in
an arid region, but where it obviates
the need of long haulage $4,000 to
100000 is moderate figure.

Judas Had the Best Of It.

When the Passion play at Oberam-
mergau was in progress an American
visitor spent much of his spare time
looking up the actors in their homes
and chatting with them about the play.
One complaint he met almost every
where was the tremendous fatigue the
performers suffered at the close of
the eight-hour performance. Coming
to the home of Hans Twink. the Ju
das of the play, he found the painter
actor in quite cheerful mood. Does
the performance fatigue you so much.
too?" the tourist inquired. Ere Herr
Twink could reply his little ten-year-
old son chirped up: "Pa, he don't get
so tired. He hangs himself at three
o'clock and comes home two hours be-
fore the Others"

The Autos Snap.

What I'd rather be than anything
I can think of is an automobile" said
the seeGy looking man.
Coed lord, what a WISH" said his
seedy companion. They don't have
no snap, automobiles don't"
Don't they?" said the envious
tramp. Just listen to this. Travelled
29.463 miles in two years and only
washed three times. Three times, get
that? Only washed three times in
two years. That's an automobile.
Don't have no snap, eh? Ruh?"

BUCHANAN IS SILENT.
He Refuses to Discuss THE speakership
Question.

G. H. Buckman of Winfield, Cowley
county, epresentatiye-elect and a
leader in the last legislature is here
today in his capacity as a member of
the state board of bar examiners.
Judge Buchanan has been talked of all
over the state by the progressives as
the Republican candidate for speaker
OF the next house and is conceded to
be a formidable candidate. even
though he has declined to make the
race. The Judge is a receptive rather
than an aggressive candidate for the
place. 1t is believed that he would like
to be speaker as a stepping stone to
his ambition to round out his career
with a place on the supreme bench.
Judge Buchanan declined today to
make any statement in connection with
the speakership. IT have nothing to
say in regard to the speakership mat
ter he said. there is no statement
to make hope the Republican mem
bers will select their own speaker~fo
the next session and not have him
slated beforehand or the selection
made by leaders and a formal vote
taken. l believe that if the members,
each man voting his own personal SEN
timents in a contest for the place, Sc
lect their own speaker that officer
would come nearer to having the un-
divided support of his party through
out the house sessions.
While here today I made arrange
mentS for quarters for my wife and
myself during the next session. I am
in much better health this year than
I was two years ago at this time.
look forward to profitable session
and 1 do not believe many Republican
representatives will sacrifice their par
ty for personal prejudices during the
session in spite of all the talk about a
stormy legislature
Judge Buchanan was chairman of
the judiciary committee last session
and commanded the respect of all fac
lions and parties by his fairness not
less than his ability in debate and the
transaction of house business.
