Washington, March 16.-Vice Presi-

have to content themselves with riding
to and from the capitol in common street
cars or in out of date horse drawn ve-
hicleS. The house declined to provide
them with tourist cars. Oratory and
automobiles collided in the debate on
the legislative executive and judicial
appropriation bill which was passed by
the house. A provision for cars for the
presiding officers Of the two houses of
congress was voted out of the measure

throwing almost their entire strength

Throughout the debate Uncle Joe"

had been completed and the speaker
saw visions of himself whirling up
Pennsylvania avenue in a government
furnished car driven by more govern

instruction to report it back without

Women and EVIL Plays.

An actor cried out the other day
against the degeneration of the Amer
women for evil suggestions was one of
the causes of the immoral condition of
the drama.
A great deal of the happenings in
our country today indicate that our
women are morally superior to our
men; and morally superior in just the
way in which their critic finds them
deficient. Men may be as moral even
more moral in some ways. but in re-
guard to the subject of the sex, which
is really the point touched on. there
is no doubt that women are superior
more delicate, more scrupulous, and
more highly civilized than are men.
1t is probable that the Improvement
of the morals of our men in this re-
spect is ,ependent on the influence
of our women. 1t is obvious to all
observers that those men who really
know women best-know their char
tives, their moods and their ideals
are those men who are the most civil
lized among us. and the most delicate
in matters of sex They are Influenced
by women because they come more
fully under their influence
If this is true, it is inconceivable that
women should have, in this respect. a
emoralizing influence on the stage.
that through them there should be a.
boom in immoral plays. 1t is proba BILE
that the actor has misinterpreted GER
tain phenomena of our day. 1t is true
that women are beginning to be in
terested in their wider sphere, to be
more active in public matters, to en-
gage in ide social work to invade
the economic world, and to think about
all the things under the sun. Socio-
logical and wide ethical considerations
interest women more than formerly;
and when such subjects are treated
seriously in plays it is natural that
women should more and more turn
their attention to them. The play
that reflects social conditions or
implies criticism of Them is le-
Ultimately an object of interest to our
women.
To our women we have largely
handed over the general subject of a
braod culture. American being mar
rowly but intensely busy have placed
their women in the position of the sup
porters, developers. and critics of gem
eral civilization. But we must not

AFTER HOTEL KEEPERS.
State Board of Health Say They Must
Comply With Law.

Smith Center, Kan, March 16.-
The state board of health is out with
sharp warnings to the hotelkeepers in
this county to at once comply with the
law that says all hotels shall be pro-
vided with chemical extinguishers in
convenient places, and that all rooms
above the second story have a rope
handy for guests to use in case of
emergency.
The wisdom of having ropes in
rooms above the first story was demon
strated here Sunday morning, when a
number of guets in the Sherman hotel
slid to safety after an early morning
fire had cut off all other means of
escape.

Beaver, township, eight miles north of

in a dazed condition. and suffering
from terrible beating about the head
He said that he had been waylaid and
beaten by VIII, Frank and Forest
Knight, young men who live in the
district where he teaches.
Lock said that the eldest of his as
sailants held a shotgun pointed at him
while the other two beat him with
their fists. Lock lost several teeth, his
lips were badly cut and a big bruise
over his temple indicated that he had
been struck with club. Trouble had
been brewing between the knights and
Lock since the latter reported their
younger sister as being absent from
school in violation of the Kansas
truancy law. The knights have been
arrested.
