VAUGHAN A SLICK ONE.
Causes Arrest Of Iowa Officer Who
Went TO Missouri After Him.


Keokuk, Jan. 27.-Marshal Kessel-
ring, who went to Monett, Mo-, to bring
professor" Vaughan to Keokuk he be-
ing wanted here on the charge of OBJ
tanning money under false pretenses
was himself arrested in the Missouri
town at the instance of the hypnotist,
who accused Keokulls chief of police
of having committed perjury. Kessel-
ring sWore to the requisition papers,
stating that Vaughan was wanted for
obtaining money under false pretenses.
AT Monet he charged Vaughan with
being a fugitive from justice and the
latter made this affidavit the basis Of
his perjury accusation against Kessel-
ring. The latter was arraigned in the
court of a justice of the peace and pro-
vided $500 bond for his appearance.
There is little or no chance of
Vaughan evading extradition to Iowa
to answer to the charge that has been
made against him by Miss Katie Dyke
of Keokuk.
Fred johnson, the fiance of Miss
Nellie e. Clark, who was found in the
company of Vaughan at Monet is
still in Keokuk and will likely remain
here until he learns of Miss Clark s
intentions as to her future movements.
Johnson does not seem much concerned
over the $40 and other sums that he
advanced to his intended. His whole
thought seems to be concentrated on
the recovery of the girl.

WoMEN's VOTES IN NORWAY
New Law Gives Full Suffrage Without
Discrimination.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The recent dispatch from Norway
regarding the extension of suffrage to
women which has been widely published
is so misleading that it seems best TO make
a statement in regard TO it, 1t was as fol-
lows:
.Ry a great majority the Odelsthing las
voted 10 grant universal municipal suffrage
to women over twenty-five years of age.
Since 1907 women have been allowed
TO vote under the same conditions as men
ONLY when they or the husband when the
couple have the property in common. have
paid an income tax of 400 kroner In the
towns and 500 kroner in the country dis
tEiets.s
/. Municipal suffrage was granted 10 the
women of Norway in 1901, instead OF 1907
They did not have TO pay an income tax
of 400 kroner, but only a tax on an income
Of 400 kroner (s1i0). Thus even wage earn
ing women could have vote This applied
10 single women, to married women who
held property In their own name and to
those who held 1t jointly with their hus-
hands. At the same time this law was
passed universal municipal suffrage was
for the first time granted to men without
any taXpaying qualification.

of Norway full suffrage-the right to vote
for members OF parliament and to sit in
that body. This was granted TO all women
who possessed municipal suffrage, and
therefore it carried this small tax qualifiea-
ton. Women exercised the parliamentary
vote for the first time a. few months ago,
and one woman was elected TO parliament.
The women have always protested against
the taxpaying qualification, which was net
imposed on men. The parliament by now
removing the disqualification for the nIu-
nicipaf suffrage has also removed il for the
parliamentary suffrage. and thus there is
complete universal suffrage for women in
Norway. IDA Hustled HAHFEh'

PROGRESS AVID HAPPINESS.

Progress" says DR.. Charles w. Eliot.
ris measured by happiness, not by dol

Is it not a question Of means. rather
than of measure? Through the ages
mankind has done little else but try to
adapt means to its one great end, the
attainment of happiness, and of these
means money-'dollars and cents''-has
been the one TO which it has most per-
sistently pinned its faith, in which it
continues to believe with undiminished,
with perhaps increasing, strength. There
may be a reason for this in a capitalistic

AUTONOMY IN EDUCATION
Remedy Suggested by Henry @.
Wright for City Board.

The recent opinion OF Attorney General
o'AIalley i'm reference 90 the status OF the
Board of Education of New York City as
an integral part of the educational system
OF the state has aroused considerable in
terest in the city and throughout the state
and has led Henry c. Wright. prominent
member of the City Club. to give his views
in a letter addressed TO Joseph G. Beane.
acting president of the club.
Mr., WTight's attitude is in entire accord
with the recommendations adopted bsr the
Board of Education al it's meeting on last
Wednesday. He strongly urges that the
corporate powers and privileges of the
board be retained. In Mr.. wFight's opinion
the Board of Education should possess all
necessary powers TO conduct It's affairs and
perform all the functions assigned to Ii, and
local politics should not be permitted 10 in
terfere with it's important duties.
Mr., Wright asks il anything can be more
incongFuous than the assumption of
authority in educational matters by the
Board OF Aldermen. Mr., Wright also holds
that important educational policies are
often hampered by the uSurpation of
authority by the city's finance department.
ana ne calls attention 10 the fact that the
board is not allowed even 10 hire a build
ing for temporary accommodation. It's
funds, he says, have been diverted and the
control thereof assumed elsewhere not
withstanding that the law gives the hoard
fun powers of administration in that re-
speet.
The remedy for the present conditions
according to Mr.. Wright, is te senarate tbs
