bellished with rich emblems, foliage,
flowers, flags and pennons futtering
everywhere.
General Drummond on horseback, dis
playing the well known militant col
ors, purple and green. Beside the
general came the color bearer, fol-
lowed by a group of new crusaders
just ahead of Joan of Arc on horse
back, enveloped in silver chain
armOr. This vanguard, striking in
arrangement and immensely dramat-
ic an appearance, drew roar after
roar of applause from the people
massed along the route.
Great Leaders Are Afoot.
Behind the van came on foot the
great leaders of the movement-Mrs.
Pankhurst, ChriBtabel Pankhurst, Mrs.
Pethick Lawrence, Mrs. luke. Then
| came a pathetic touch, the prison
ers' pageant" representing the 700
imprisonments suffered by the women
in their fight for votes. This touch
ing spectacle WAS succeeded by I
historical pageant, a most brilliant
thing, the reincaTnation of Britains
women of power-Boadicea, Victoria,
the Abbess Hilda, founder of the first
English university, attended by nuns
in scarlet and blue; AlipOra, count
ess of Norfolk, and Danes Crispina
Bowden and Ann Startupp, each pre-
ceded by a carrier bearing a banner
showing the name and dates. The
historical pageant also embraced
women governors and custodians Of
castles, high sheriffs and peeresses,
who were summoned to parliament in
the reign of Edward III. The mo-
diaeval characters were dressed in
gorgeous costumes copied in the
Kensington museum.
The object of this revival of the
past was to show that women had
always been politically ambitious ana
had always desired to take an active
part in national affairs; that they
had once enjoyed privileges hat
modern society had wrested from
them. The "voteless, women" banner
preceded women representing Flor
enee Nightingale, Charlotte Bronte
and Josephine Butler who were de-

Many from Colonies There.
The pageant Of the empire was
made UP of women carrying garlands
of roses, Irish colleens, Scotch piper
lasses and high hated Welshwomen,
one leading a goat. But the gigantic
demonstration was not confined to
women of the United Kingdom. Aus
tralians were there with their EN-

wife of the prime minister of the
commonwealth; Lady Cockburn, wife
Of the agent-general Of South Aus

The heavy receipts Of cotton have
made the work Of the public cotton
weighers much heavier than ever
before and many who have cotton
TO weigh are kept waiting in line
for their turn on the plaform the
greater part Of the day. Friday, for
instance, the public weighers hand
led 1,119 bales of cotton and some
Of the cotton wagons were in line
for more than six hours before their
cotton was weighed. 1t is a full days
work for two men to weigh this
amount of cotton and the weighers
are doubtless exerting themselves to
weigh the cotton as rapidly as pos-
sible, but it is nevertheless a great
hardship for the farmers have to
wait all day TO have the cotton
weighed and there is great COM
plant. The writer is not prepared
to prescribe the remedy, but if it is
possible steps should be taken to in
weighers when there is so much cot
ton on the market. If the farmers
want to sell their cotton in Sumter
it should be made easy for them to
do So. If the dissatisfaction over
the congested condition at the cotton
platform and the loss of time in bav-
ing cotton weighed continues
the market will get the
black eye and other towns
get plack eye and othehr towns
will get the cotton that always would
otherwise come here. There ought
not to be any difficulty in arranging
for two more assistant weieher,s on
days when their services are needed.
