clerk that he was more than willing
that the young couple should soon

pies in modern life. Man. he said. had
been slow to accord to womanhood
ANYTHING like an absolute equality. In
deed her rating, in the eyes of man,
had been a plane of vast Inferior
ity. treating her a plaything or
drudge according to the strata of So
ciety in which he moved. There had
been vast Improvement in that re-
spect, but the ideal has not yet been
reached. Three types of women have
risen above mediocrity: those who are
born into titled life, those who are
touched with a commanding intellect
and those of such profound personal
ity that the divinity in woman is sim
ply irresistible It's the divinity in
woman everywhere that always COM
mands respect If we are willing to
concede these premises why not put
into her hands the elective franchise :?
What we've done so far in that line
we've done much as the father gives
his small son a popgun, allowing her
play with such inoffensive matters as
school questions. but were some day
going to put into her hands the full
elective franchise and recognize her as
mans equal. We are coming to base
the elective franchise on character and
intelligence rather than Oh sex.
Ballot Unsafe in Ignorant Hands.
It's unsafe to put the ballot in the
hands of ignorance Where is the
justice when a woman of the intelli-
gence of Harriet Beecher Stowe can
not vote, DuI II Is easy LOT the CriIfilfie,i
or idiot? It's God eternal truth and
you can't escape it, for it's coming
AS his third point in the changed
relation OF womanhood Rev. MIR. Rick
etts touched briefly upon the different
moral code applied to men and women
guilty OF the same crime. saying that
it was not necessary to go to high So
ciety in New York to find examples
but that there were male moral lepefs
tolerated in Norwich guilty of sin
which would make women moral out
casts. He said he was not standing to
condone sin in women. but with Presi-
cent Taft he was crying against one
code of morals for the man and an
other for the woman. and he believed
we were coming to a time when such
a thing would be done away with.
Finally, the speaker said that woman
was an empress in the realm of pain
and suffering, sympathy and consola-
ton, and he closed with some verses
upon True Womanhood which won ap-
plause as he took his seat.
After other selections by the solo
lists and the reader who had appeared
before Mrs. Kinney surprised the post
ny the $50 gift from the Relief corps.
to which Commander Hovey, as he ac-
copied ii. replied with sincere thanks
on behalf of the post and the assur-
arce that the members understood how
much hard work on the part of the Ia
dies it had meant to raise this sum of
money.

Postmaster. Caruthers received from
the postoff1ce department this week
the following concerning short paid
letters to foreign countries:
The department is advised that
mary letters mailed in the United
States addressed for delivery in for
eign countries, notably China, which
are subject to our Postal Union post
age rate. are prepaid only two cents,
the senders of the letters being under
the impression, it is presumed, that
our two cent domestic postage rate
is applicable to said letters.
The only foreign countries to which
the two-cent letter rate applies are
Canada, Cuba. Mexico, Newfoundland.
the Canal zone, the republic of Pan
anna, Germany Coy direct steamers on
ly), England. Scotland, Wales and Ire
land, and the city of Shanghai, Chi
ma. To all other countries. including
all places in China other than Shang
hal the rate is five cents for the first
ounce or. fraction thereof and three
cents for each additional ounce or
fraction thereof, which must be fully
prepaid or the letter becomes liable on
delivery to charge equal to double
the amount of the deficient postage.
For instance, q single rate letter pre-
paid only two cents. being short paid
three cents, would be subject on deliv-
cry to an additional postage charge of
six cents. Such short-paid letters
have given rise to much complaint.

OFFICERS AT ARMoRY
Received instructions from Captain
jackson on Coast Artillery Work.

At the armory Friday evening there
were the officers of the companies In
this end of the state belonging to the
coast artillery corps, for the purpose
of receiving their weekly instruction
from Captain Jackson. There were
seven from New London in addition to
those from this city.
Officers of the c. \. C. have received
blank bond forms with the request
from the assistant quartermaster gen
eral Col. Michael J. Wise, that in
lieu of the former bona for property
under the custody OF the officers with
individuals named as surety, bond
ing company be named. 1t was for
merly considered a matter of homer
for an officer TO have personal bonds
men of high standing Later it be-
came difficult for many officers to Sc
secure personal bondsmen. Now, il
is understood, the state military au-
thorities consider it more business
like to have bonding companies secure
the property in trust to the officers.
The question of who stands the ex-
Dense is interesting the officers.
