such suggestions. Suffice it to say,
that after tireless effort and exhaus-

FROZEN STIFF
AT HIS OWN GATE
Old Man Was Blown Over by the
Wind and Could Not
Get Up.

MONROE CITY, Mo-. Nov. 14.-Mi-
chael Sullivan, an old and highly re-
spected resident living about six
miles southwest of here, was frozen
to death during the storm Saturday.
Mr.. Sullivan had been in town during
the day transacting business with the
law firm of Merriweather and Merri-
weather. When the storm started he
left for his home driving one-horse
rig. "A number of friends had tried to
persuade him not to 60, but he was
anxious to get home and went against
their advice. His family supposed that
he had remained in town Saturday
night on account of the storm, and
did not worry, but when he did not ar
rive home Sunday morning they start
ed out to look for him, but did not
have to go far before he was found
dead at his own gate. 1t is supposed
that he tried to open the gate and
was blown down by the wind, and be-
ing very feeble could not get up. The
horse and rig were found in the pas
ture near the house.
Mr.. Sullivan was born in Ireland
over eighty years ago. He has lived
here for many years and has been
successful in farming. He was well
known throughout this vicinity.

Both Ewes put Out.

Being right over the explosion, AL
Gala was horribly mangled about the
face and body. Fine rock shot up into
his face just as though he had been
facing the barrel of a shotgun loaded
with buckshot. The small particles
of rock entered every part of his
face, putting out both eyes. His right
hand was torn off and the arm shat
tered to the elbow. Small rock was
shot through his clothing and stuck in
his body. When unclothed at the
hospital he was in a pitiful shape.
Scarcely a part of his body escaped
the fury of the blast. Some of the
small particles Of rock penetrated
the flesh SO deep that surgeons
knife was required to remove them
No hope for his recovery was given
at an early hour this afternoon.

Slight Injuries to Three.

While there were other laborers
working in the near vicinity Of the
unexpected discharge of dynamite,
only three others were near enough
to be injured. They were peppered in
the face and body with the flying
pieces of rock, which inflicted small
wounds just like birdshot and larger.
Two of them were able to return to
their bunk houses today, while third
was requested to remain in the hospi-
tai by the companys physician, be-
cause of a two-inch scalp wound.
The charge of dynamite which ex-
ploded this morning is thought to
have been one put in for blast last
Friday. AS is known by those ia
miliar with this work, when a blas1 is
being prepared number of holes are
filled with dynamite and the dis
charge occurs simultaneously. In the
present case, however, one of the
caps failed to discharge, possibly be
cause of defective wiring, or one OF
several other reasons which may be
assigned. After the blast is shot of
the workmen go down with picks and
break up the rock into such pieces
that it can be loaded into the scale
boxes and lifted from the excavation

CHICAGO SUFFRAGIST CENTER
SPIRITED CONTEST EXPECTED
OVER PROPOSED REMOVAL. I
Equal Suffrage Amendment to Federal
Constitution Is Discussed at
Louisville.

Louisville, Oct. ga spirited, If
not u%nfriendly, contest for the re-
moval of the national headquarters
from New York to Chicago has been
begun by the delegates to the 43rd
annual convention of the National
American Woman Suffrage association,
now in session here.
The question came up in an open
discussion of the proper function of
the national association" following ad-
dresses on the subject by Mrs. Anna
Blount of Illinois, and Miss M. Carey
Thomas, president of Bryn MaWr col
lege, and president of the National
College Equal Suffrage league. Mrs.
Blount explained that the Illinois
board had instructed the delegation to
seek such a change and gave notice
that a motion to that effect would be
introduced later in the session.
1nasmuch as a great part of the suf-
frage work is being carried on or has
succeeded in the extreme West, the
Western women feel that they are en-
titled to more attention. Previously
Miss Thomas had declared that if suff-
ragists could forget sectional differ
ence, they could expect victory every
where in ten years. Looking toward
further organization of the movement
Mrs. Blount urged the formation of
societies in every state.
Endorsement by the national associa-
ton of the equal suffrage amendment
to the constitution of the United
States, proposed by the Socialistic
party and which Congressman Berger
of Wisconsin will introduce into the
house of representatives, was sought
by Miss Caroline Lowe, who addressed
the convention as representative of
the woman's national committee of
the Socialistic party. The matter was
referred to the resolutions committee.
DR.. Shaw, DR.. Thomas and other
who addressed the convention spoke
of the readiness with which public
men accept suffrage, DR.. Shaw say.

at the governors conference in New
Jersey emphasized the progress of the

said, governors and governors wives

to be seen on the same side of the
street with a %suffragist.

Zapata's Campaign Thrives in Mexico
In Spite of the Government.

IN optic OF the government.
Mexico City, Oct. 24.-Two bridges
blown out on the Inter Oceanic rail
road, n station burned and two small
battles with federal troops is one days
record of the Zapata campaign.
The apparent inability of the gov
eminent to capture zapata or to put
down his instruction leads to the be-
lief that the pacification of the south
will remain for Madero when he as
sumes the presidency next month.
The new executive also must deal
with five other uprisings.
The bridge destroying and burning
expedition occurred near the state line
of Morales and Mexico. The station
at Nepantla was burned. A train load
of troops vas sent to the raided dis
trict from Cuacutla. The skirmishes
were at Tetictljcs and San Vicente in
Morales. The rebels were defeated
but fatalities were small.
